Many guests a year come to the UCLA Lake Arrowhead Conference center, including college dignitaries, teenage tennis players, and family reunions. But few know the history behind this famed conference center 3 hours north of Los Angeles. Did you know that it was originally a healing center run by a disciple of John Kellog? Or that its tennis courts aren't tennis courts at all? Or that Kareem Abdul Jabaar played a part in the center's liberation from UC Berkeley? You'll appreciate your stay at the Lake Arrowhead all the more once you understand it's fascinating and exciting history!
