Ontario Sports Empire Nears Opening, Bringing a New Era of Sports to Southern California

ONTARIO, Calif. — Excitement is building as the Ontario Sports Empire, the largest multi-use sports complex west of the Rocky Mountains, moves closer to opening. A recent social media update from the organization offered fans a behind-the-scenes look at the installation of its state-of-the-art artificial turf, providing another glimpse of the massive project that is set to transform youth and amateur sports throughout Southern California.

Spanning approximately 190 acres, the Ontario Sports Empire has been designed as a premier destination for local leagues, regional championships, and national sporting events. Once fully operational, the complex will feature:

20 multipurpose fields for soccer, lacrosse, and other field sports
14 youth baseball and softball diamonds
8 full-size baseball diamonds
4 football and rugby fields
2 championship baseball fields
Additional amenities designed to support athletes, families, tournaments, and community events.

The newly released video showcasing the turf installation highlights the precision and planning involved in creating playing surfaces capable of withstanding year-round competition while providing athletes with a high-quality experience. Artificial turf allows for greater durability, reduced maintenance, and more playable days throughout the year, making the facility attractive for tournaments and large sporting events.

The Ontario Sports Empire is expected to become a major economic driver for the Inland Empire by attracting hundreds of thousands of athletes, families, and visitors each year. The influx of tournaments is anticipated to benefit local hotels, restaurants, retail businesses, and entertainment venues while further establishing Ontario as one of California’s premier sports tourism destinations.

The sports complex also complements the nearby ONT Field, home of the Ontario Tower Buzzers, creating an expansive sports and entertainment district that will serve athletes of all ages and skill levels. Together, these facilities represent one of the largest sports investments in the region’s history.

As construction continues, anticipation is growing among coaches, athletes, tournament organizers, and local residents eager to experience what promises to become one of the nation’s premier athletic destinations.

FDA Announces Nationwide Recall of Popular Oribe Shampoo Over Bacterial Contamination

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has announced a nationwide voluntary recall of select lots of Oribe Serene Scalp Densifying Shampoo after the product’s manufacturer, Kao USA Inc., detected the presence of Pluralibacter gergoviae, a bacteria that can pose health risks to certain consumers.

The recall was issued on July 1 and affects specific lots of the premium shampoo sold throughout the United States and Canada. The recalled products include both the 8.5-ounce and 33.8-ounce bottles of Oribe Serene Scalp Densifying Shampoo.

What Is the Health Risk?

According to the FDA and Kao USA, Pluralibacter gergoviae generally presents little risk to healthy individuals. However, people with weakened immune systems, underlying medical conditions, or compromised skin may be at greater risk of developing infections if exposed to the bacteria. In rare cases, the bacteria has been associated with infections involving the skin, eyes, respiratory tract, urinary tract, and bloodstream.

Although no illnesses related to the recalled shampoo have been reported, Kao USA is urging consumers to stop using the affected products immediately as a precaution.

Which Products Are Being Recalled?

The recall is limited to shampoo manufactured between February 21 and February 26, 2026, and includes the following products:

Oribe Serene Scalp Densifying Shampoo – 8.5 oz
- UPC: 840035231242
- Affected Lot Code: YR010556
Oribe Serene Scalp Densifying Shampoo – 33.8 oz
- UPC: 840035231273
- Affected Lot Codes: YR010566 and YR010576

Consumers can locate the lot code printed in black on the bottom of the bottle.

What Should Consumers Do?

Anyone who owns one of the recalled shampoos should:

Stop using the product immediately.
Check the lot code on the bottom of the bottle.
Contact Kao USA for a replacement or additional instructions.
Consult a healthcare provider if they experience symptoms they believe may be related to using the recalled shampoo.

Consumers can contact Kao USA through its Professional Hair Technical Hotline at 800-333-2442 or by emailing oribecomplaints@kao.com for assistance.

A Premium Brand Under Scrutiny

Oribe is a luxury haircare brand popular in professional salons and among consumers seeking products for thinning hair and scalp health. The recalled shampoo has received industry recognition in recent years, making the recall particularly notable within the beauty industry. Importantly, the recall applies only to specific lots of the shampoo and does not include other products in the Oribe Serene Scalp line, such as the conditioner or treatment spray.

The FDA and Kao USA continue to investigate the source of the contamination while working with retailers, salons, and distributors to remove the affected products from circulation.

Victoria Gardens Expands Community Shopping Experience with New Monthly Female Maker Market

RANCHO CUCAMONGA, Calif. — Victoria Gardens is adding a fresh new experience to its calendar of community events with the launch of its first-ever Female Maker Market, a monthly event celebrating women-owned businesses, local artisans, and handcrafted products in the heart of Rancho Cucamonga.

Beginning this summer, the market transforms Chaffey Town Square into a vibrant marketplace where visitors can shop directly from local entrepreneurs while enjoying the unique atmosphere of one of the Inland Empire’s premier outdoor lifestyle destinations. The evening market will be held on July 10, August 14, September 11, and October 9 from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m.

More than 30 women-owned businesses and local makers are expected to participate each month, offering an array of handcrafted jewelry, artwork, home décor, specialty foods, beauty products, fashion accessories, gifts, and other one-of-a-kind creations. The event gives shoppers an opportunity to meet the makers behind the brands, hear their stories, and support local entrepreneurship.

The addition of the Female Maker Market reflects Victoria Gardens’ continued evolution from a shopping center into a community gathering place. While known for its mix of national retailers, restaurants, entertainment venues, and cultural attractions, the open-air center has increasingly focused on hosting experiences that bring residents together beyond traditional retail. Seasonal concerts, outdoor movies, family activities, and community celebrations have become a regular part of the destination’s programming.

Organizers say the new market is designed to showcase the creativity and innovation of women entrepreneurs while providing small businesses with an opportunity to reach thousands of shoppers in a high-traffic setting. The event also encourages residents to discover products that cannot typically be found in large retail stores, creating a more personal and interactive shopping experience.

For visitors, the market offers an ideal summer evening outing. Guests can browse vendor booths, enjoy dinner at one of Victoria Gardens’ many restaurants, shop their favorite retailers, and experience live community energy all in one location. Located at 12505 North Mainstreet, Victoria Gardens continues to serve as one of Southern California’s leading destinations for shopping, dining, entertainment, and community events.

The Female Maker Market is free to attend and is expected to become a recurring highlight of Victoria Gardens’ expanding calendar of community-focused programming, further strengthening connections between local businesses, artists, and Inland Empire residents.

Rancho Cucamonga Introduces New Start Times for City Council and Planning Commission Meetings

RANCHO CUCAMONGA, Calif. — Residents who regularly attend or watch City Council and Planning Commission meetings should take note of an important schedule change.

The City of Rancho Cucamonga has officially implemented new start times for both City Council and Planning Commission meetings, with all regular meetings now beginning at 6:00 p.m. The change is intended to provide a consistent meeting schedule while continuing to encourage public participation in local government.

The new schedule took effect in July 2026, with Planning Commission meetings beginning at 6:00 p.m. starting July 8, followed by City Council meetings adopting the new 6:00 p.m. start time beginning July 15.

While the start times have changed, the meeting schedule remains the same:

City Council: First and third Wednesdays of each month
Planning Commission: Second and fourth Wednesdays of each month

The City is encouraging residents to review meeting agendas before each session, attend meetings in person, or participate by watching the live broadcasts or archived recordings available online. Public meetings provide community members with opportunities to stay informed, offer comments on agenda items, and engage in decisions that affect neighborhoods, development, public safety, infrastructure, and city services.

City officials also noted that the July 1 and August 5 City Council meetings were canceled as part of the 2026 meeting calendar, making it especially important for residents to verify meeting dates and agendas before attending.

For those who wish to stay engaged in local government, meeting agendas, supporting documents, and video recordings remain available through the City of Rancho Cucamonga’s online meeting portal.

New Lewis Center for Aging Opens in Rancho Cucamonga, Bringing Comprehensive Senior Healthcare Under One Roof

RANCHO CUCAMONGA, Calif. — A new era of senior healthcare has arrived in the Inland Empire with the opening of the Lewis Center for Aging, a state-of-the-art facility designed to make healthcare more convenient, coordinated, and accessible for older adults.

Located at 11000 Eucalyptus Street in Rancho Cucamonga, the multimillion-dollar center operates under the umbrella of San Antonio Regional Hospital and was created to meet the growing needs of the region’s expanding Medicare-age population. The innovative “one-stop shop” concept allows seniors to receive multiple healthcare services in a single location, reducing the need to travel between different offices for appointments and treatments.

The new facility brings together a wide range of healthcare providers and support services, including primary care physicians, geriatric specialists, orthopedic care, cardiology, audiology, pharmacy services, laboratory testing, diagnostic imaging, physical therapy, occupational therapy, social services, and additional specialty providers that will continue to expand through 2027.

For many seniors and caregivers, navigating multiple appointments across different cities can be physically exhausting and time-consuming. The Lewis Center for Aging was designed specifically to eliminate many of those challenges by coordinating care in one centralized location. Hospital leaders say the goal is not simply to treat illness, but to help older adults remain healthy, independent, and active for as long as possible.

One unique feature of the center is its dedicated media production studio, which will be used to create educational videos, healthy-living classes, wellness programming, and instructional resources for seniors and caregivers. The educational content is expected to expand access to reliable health information beyond the walls of the facility, encouraging preventive care and healthier lifestyles throughout the Inland Empire.

The opening represents years of planning and investment. In 2023, San Antonio Regional Hospital purchased the 127,000-square-foot office complex that now houses the center, with plans to transform it into a comprehensive medical facility dedicated to senior care.

As California’s population continues to age, healthcare experts increasingly emphasize integrated models that improve communication between providers, reduce unnecessary hospital visits, and simplify access to essential medical services. The Lewis Center for Aging reflects that vision by bringing multidisciplinary care together in one convenient location.

For Inland Empire families, the center offers more than medical appointments—it provides a comprehensive approach to aging that supports wellness, independence, and quality of life while making healthcare easier to navigate for both seniors and their loved ones.

Rancho Cucamonga Breaks Ground on $650 Million Coca-Cola Production and Distribution Campus

RANCHO CUCAMONGA, Calif. — Construction is officially underway on a transformative $650 million Coca-Cola production and distribution campus in Rancho Cucamonga, marking one of the largest private industrial investments in the Inland Empire in recent years.

The flagship facility, being developed by Reyes Coca-Cola Bottling, will occupy a 620,000-square-foot campus on a 30-acre redevelopment site located at the corner of 6th Street and Haven Avenue. Once completed, the state-of-the-art complex will serve as a major manufacturing and distribution hub for Southern California and Nevada.

The project represents more than just a new building—it is expected to strengthen the region’s economy, create hundreds of jobs, and modernize Coca-Cola’s production capabilities for decades to come.

A Major Economic Investment

The new campus is expected to generate 500 to 600 new jobs during its first three years of operation, providing opportunities across manufacturing, logistics, distribution, maintenance, administration, and support services.

The investment also reinforces Rancho Cucamonga’s growing reputation as a strategic location for large-scale industrial and distribution operations, thanks to its transportation infrastructure and proximity to major Southern California markets.

First New California Production Facility in Nearly 60 Years

One of the most significant aspects of the project is its historic importance.

According to project information, this will be the first newly built Coca-Cola production facility in California in nearly six decades. The campus replaces and expands upon an older distribution center dating back to 1984, creating a modern manufacturing operation designed to meet future regional demand.

Built for the Future

The new Reyes Coca-Cola campus is being designed with sustainability and employee wellness in mind.

Planned features include:

Renewable energy systems
Electric vehicle charging stations
Water and energy efficiency technologies
Modern employee training centers
Expanded break rooms and workplace amenities
An on-site parking garage

These improvements reflect a broader trend among manufacturers investing in environmentally responsible operations while creating more comfortable and efficient workplaces for employees.

Strengthening the Inland Empire

As one of California’s busiest logistics corridors, the Inland Empire continues to attract significant investment from manufacturers, distributors, and retailers.

The new Coca-Cola campus is expected to enhance regional production capacity while improving distribution efficiency throughout Southern California and neighboring Nevada. Once operational, the facility will play an important role in supplying products to millions of consumers across the Southwest.

Looking Ahead

Construction is scheduled to continue throughout 2026, with the facility expected to be fully operational by early 2027.

When complete, the campus will stand as one of the most advanced beverage production and distribution facilities in the region and one of Rancho Cucamonga’s largest recent economic development projects.

For local residents, the project represents more than a construction site—it signals continued investment in the city’s future, expanded employment opportunities, and the ongoing evolution of the Inland Empire as a hub for advanced manufacturing and logistics.

Mountain Dew Is Dropping a 5-Cent Commemorative Can — But Only 1,948 People Can Get One

Mountain Dew is turning 77 this year, and it’s marking the occasion with one of the more creative limited drops in fast food and beverage marketing right now. Starting June 29, the brand will release exactly 1,948 bundles on TikTok Shop — one for each year of its founding — each containing a commemorative 5-cent can and a 10-pack of Mountain Dew minis. Daily quantities will be announced on Mountain Dew’s Instagram Stories at noon ET, with a strict one-per-person limit.

The drop is anchored to the brand’s “American Original — Tasting Great Since ’48” campaign, which leans into Mountain Dew’s origin story: a citrus drink created by two brothers in the hills of Tennessee, positioned as a scrappy, independent product unlike anything else on shelves at the time. The 5-cent price point mirrors what a soda might have cost in 1948, turning the commemorative can into a piece of brand mythology as much as a beverage.

The Breakdown:

Exactly 1,948 bundles drop on TikTok Shop over three days beginning June 29, limited to one per person — quantities announced daily via Instagram Stories at noon ET
Each bundle includes a 5-cent commemorative can and a 10-pack of Mountain Dew minis, priced to echo the brand’s 1948 origins
The release is part of Mountain Dew’s broader “American Original” heritage campaign celebrating its Tennessee roots and 77-year history

The Angle: This is a collectible drop disguised as a beverage promotion. With fewer than 2,000 units available across three days and a TikTok Shop exclusive distribution model, Mountain Dew is engineering scarcity and social shareability simultaneously. The 5-cent price tag isn’t about value — it’s a story device that makes the can inherently post-worthy. In a summer where every major food and beverage brand is running a holiday deal, Mountain Dew is instead running a cultural moment with a built-in countdown clock.
