2nd Annual Autumn Faire & Market ~ Monte Rio 2010


We received a nice write up about our participation in the recent event held at Monte Rio.

Autumn Faire Thanks: MRRPD
hosted a fee admission event at the
Amphitheater on October 10th for
the second year and was once again
rewarded with good attendance and
beautiful weather. While the band Two
Rock Ramblers played in the afternoon,
craft and food vendors made sales, kids
played in the park, leashed dogs were
everywhere, the Community Garden
(thanks to Marci Martin) held an Open
Gate event, and tennis was the sport of
the day with the help of local enthusiast
Edgar Micua and Michelle Skipwith of
the U.S. Tennis Association.
The community came out and enjoyed
their neighbors, had a glass of wine at
the Monte Rio Chamber booth, and
ate spicy pasta created by Chef Maria
Vieages, old fashioned hotdogs sold by
Monte Rio Watch volunteers and relaxed
on the lawns in the sun. Some joined
Mary Black and Kathleen Hardy and
their students during demonstrations
of Pilates, aerobics and yoga from the
stage – Good Job ladies! And, Natasha
Pehrson did her usual great job organizing
the craft vendors. Our special gratitude
to all our neighbors and community
groups who are responsible for making
this end-of-season fete successful
by showing up, doing the work and
hanging around to enjoy themselves.
(Special, special thanks to Steve Baxman
for his ever-present assistance, strong back
and mellow countenance.)
