Our 10th Annual Community BBQ event is over and we had something for everyone this year. We almost doubled the number of people served a delicious BBQ with dessert being make-your-own-sundaes. For some it was definitely 'dessert first' as they had their ice cream first, then the BBQ Italian Sausage or hamburger or BOTH. Roasted corn-on-the-cob, fresh fruit salad, tasty spinach salad, and a cool watermelon kept everyone satisfied.
Our horseshoe tournament was back in full swing after a couple of years off. Congrats to winners Steve Cordoza and Carlos Trevino who generously donated their winnings back to the museum. Talks are being held to see if the Museum can host a regularly scheduled horseshoe tournament on our two regulation pits. More details as talks continue.
President and author Lisa Robinson had a very good size crowd listening to her visual presentation on the history of San Lorenzo Valley. She utilized almost 200 photos in a slide show that spanned many decades, many of them from the Museum's own photo collection.
Thanks to our local band, 'The Home Wreckers', who donated their time to play and entertain everyone. We even had a few people up and dancing. Great job and great music!
The silent auction and raffle were fun with a wide variety of prizes to win. From two passes on the Chardonnay Charter sailboat combined with a gift certificate from the Crow's Nest to a large stuffed Pepe LePhew. I won a Wallace and Gromet mug with dials to select how strong, how much sugar, and how much cream in my coffee so I can have a perfect cuppa.
Next year our 11th Annual Community BBQ will be on Sunday, July 20th *hint - it's always the 3rd Sunday in July. Be sure and not to miss it.
