Take at least a dozen guitars, add as many or more singers, drummers and bass players, add assorted piano players, mix in booth after booth of colorful local art, crafts and jewlery, shake it up well and behold, another great La Honda Fair!
Friends, neighbors, tourists and guests all came down to La Honda Garden to share in the perfect weekend. The new Market celebrated it's opening, and Sullivans provided the BBQ and evening music. It's is such a unique weekend when a little town like La Honda can put together a big time. Thanks to Paula Dennis and Jeff Ring who did the lion's share of the organizing. The raffle was a huge success this year thanks to the many people that bought up the tickets. The proceeds of the Fair go to the La Honda school music and art program. This community event is possible only because of the generousity of the musicians, artists, and volunteers. The real underwriter though is Charlie Catania who lets the Fair take place in the the beautiful La Honda Gardens.
AS MC for the weekend it was a real pleasure to look out and see so many folks having a great time and all for a great cause. Thanks everyone for being part of the fun. Look for info on the upcoming July 4th celebration at Playbowl.
It's all about living in a town where it is so easy to be involved in the community.
