AROUND 1924...."ERNEST PICKERING" BOUGHT PROPERTY FROM THE "PACIFIC ELECTRIC CO"...AND "PICKERING PARK" WAS BORN. THE ORIGINAL AMUSEMENT PARK IN SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY WAS ORIGINALLY A PLACE CALLED "HARLEM SPRINGS"....AND THEN WAS AT A SITE CALLED "URBITA SPRINGS"....WHICH I BELIEVE THEN BECAME "PICKERING PARK"

THE SHORT LIVED AMUSEMENT RESORT HAD SWIMMING, DANCE PAVILION, BOATING, PICNICS, AND ANOTHER WEBSITE MENTIONED "VAUDEVILLE FROLIC" GOING ON THERE......ALSO THERE WAS MENTION OF "PICKERING PARK" ON A REDLANDS CALIFORNIA "REDLANDS STREET RAILWAY" SCHEDULE AS A RAILWAY STOP......so it appears site was in San Bernardino or Redlands.....(I did find an Urbita Elementary School on map, perhaps a clue)
