Just got back from an amazing trip to Atlanta, where I had the privilege of presenting two classes for the American Grant Writers Conference. If you think it’s humid here, trust me it’s NOT! Glad to be home and and share some FUN right here:
1. Friday Night, August 4th – Join me at the Yarnell Family Diner, 5pm – 8pm for dinner and music by yours truly.
2. Saturday Morning, August 5th – We won’t stay out late on Friday, because we have an AWESOME Pancake Breakfast from 8am to 11am at the Yarnell Fire Station. Hosted by the Yarnell Fire Auxiliary to raise funds for the Honorary Mayor Campaign.
Who doesn’t like pancakes, sausage, bacon, berries and all the fixins’? That’s what I thought….see you there bright and early. Requested donation: $7 per adult, $3 per child
3. Wednesday, August 9th – 5pm at the Yarnell Community Presbyterian Church. WE ARE IN FOR A TREAT UNLIKE ANYTHING ELSE!
Rock Springs Café, Black Canyon City, is a business owned by a true friend of Yarnell, Augie Perry. Rock Springs is noted for the best tasting pies this side of the Mississippi – even this side of the Atlantic!
They are sponsoring a Pie Tasting at the church….Another awesome opportunity for the Yarnell Fire Auxiliary. So, $10 dollars gets you a taste of 3 flavors, add $1 for a la mode.
Linda Ma says that left over pies may be auctioned off. So, who doesn’t like pie, coffee and ice cream??? That’s what I thought. So, see you there, 5pm on the 9th. (check out the flavors at Rock Springs Café website.
4. Friday, August 11th – Yarnell Family Diner welcomes our own Walt Eckes “Strings Attached” from 5pm – 8pm.
5. Friday, August 11th – My second Fridays are contracted each month at the Wickenburg Elks Lodge 2160 – I start between 5:30 and 6pm. They serve awesome dinners restaurant style.
Not a member? Let us know and we’ll get you in as our guests. There is a limit to how many times we can do that, but if you like the place, we’ll sponsor you for membership. Talk to my Lou! He knows the ropes.
6. Friday, August 18th – I’ll bring the tunes at THIRD FRIDAY at the Yarnell Family Diner, which means it’s BIRTHDAY NIGHT – Trivia, free dessert for Birthday Babies, and often dancing if you choose.

A little weeknight treasure. Veterans of Foreign Wars is a members only club, however – once again you may attend as our guests for this event. All we need to know is that you’re coming!
