Hello, My Friends!
So, at work yesterday, I told the Chief I was going to throw a huge party when the wind goes away in Yarnell. He informed me that we have a few more weeks of the blustery stuff. It’s been ridiculous! I sure hope he’s wrong on that one….but all that is to say I’m ready for SUMMER and all the fun events that come with it!
Here’s what we have coming up for the rest of May and early June:
1. Tomorrow, Friday, May 27th – Yarnell Family Diner is kickin’ with Manzanita Road. These guys are so talented. Make sure you get to hear them. 5pm – 8pm.
2. BUT, if you miss them Friday night, you can catch them on Sunday, at Marsha and Craig Lohr’s Beach Party in honor of Memorial Day! They’re located at 22430 Hackberry, Yarnell. The party is from 1pm – 5pm. BYOB and Potluck. Don’t forget your beach chair…
3. Monday – Happy Memorial Day seems like a misnomer. It should really be Grateful Memorial Day. But happy 3-Day weekend is appropriate. American Legion Post 79 is hosting a Brats and Burgers Cookout from 12pm – 3pm.
4. Thursday, June 2nd – Paint A Painting at the Community Center. 6:30pm. You don’t have to be a great painter, you just need to be a person who wants to have fun and explore your creative side. Donation of $20, fundraiser for the CC. Call Jerry Florman 602-399-1679
5. Friday night, June 3rd – Since so many people in Yarnell are helping with the Yarnell Memorial Run, let’s make this the Pre-Event Party at the Yarnell Family Diner. Trust me, we’re all ready for a fun night, but we’ll keep it an early one. I’ll play the tunes from 5pm – 7:30 or 8pm. Let’s unwind!
6. Saturday, June 4th is the Yarnell Memorial Run – Opening Ceremony begins at 6:50am and the 19k starts at 7:15am. Here’s the thing: if you don’t want to participate in the run or be a volunteer, you can still help the cause and participate in the Raffles. It’s easy, just show up at the Yarnell Assembly of God before 8:30am to get your tickets. You must be present to win. There’s a 50/50 and some AWESOME items. Proceeds benefit the Yarnell Fire District, the Eric Marsh and William Warneke Foundations.
7. Sunday, June 5th – A beautiful Garden Fashion Show at B-Wear Chic Boutique, begins at 6pm. RSVP is requested by June 1st. Call 928-427-6375. Local Homemade desserts and coffee social followed by the modeling of Stacy’s gorgeous inventory and her own designs! 22783 S. Hwy 89 in Yarnell. Click here to print your invitation!
8. Friday, June 10th – 2nd Friday at the Yarnell Family Diner brings our very own “Strings Attached” aka, Walt Eckes! 5pm – 8pm, be there or be square.
9. Friday, June 10th – If you’re down Wickenburg way, I will be playing at the Elks Lodge #2160 from 5pm – 8pm. Full dinner, which I hear is awesome.
10. Saturday, June 11th at 7pm – BIG BAND PARTY/Costumes Optional at the American Legion Post 79. I’m trying to decide what to wear, since I have the privilege of entertaining! Big Band is cool. This will be so much fun. Open to the public. Click here to get the details.
I can’t believe that was a whole 13 days, and it’s packed with fun options!
See you all soon and many blessings,
Denise
