Placer County Fair Starts Tomorrow

Imagine a cow driving a NASCAR race car towards the finish line located at the main gate of the Placer County Fair, while a goat enthusiastically waves a checkered flag perched at the highest point on the nostalgic Ferris Wheel. This year, the 2012 Placer County Fair theme is “Race to the Fair."

The goal is to promote both the Fair and the NASCAR track, the “All American Speedway.” As you walk around the fair, you will notice the racing theme blended with the traditional aspects of a county fair.

Delicious fair treats, both fried as well as more health conscious options will be available to tempt any palate, while patrons can enjoy browsing the varied vendors selling unique wares.

Entertainment is a focal point for 2012, as they are bringing a large draw “Grandstand” event each day of the Fair. Thursday night they will showcase a big name concert. Friday there will be a Mixed Martial Arts bout, and they have  matched two Heavy Weight title bouts. Saturday they will have a big NASCAR Sanctioned Points Race.  Sunday there will be a 200 Lap Enduro. What’s an Enduro? It’s a 200 lap endurance race on a Soapy Track;  it’s basically a demolition derby on a circle track!

Thursday is Senior Day; free admission for those 60+. Friday is Corporate Day; all employees of all fair sponsors get free admission.  Saturday is Service Day; active military and a guest get free admission. Sunday is Kids Day; kids get free admission.

Placer County Fair Event Details:

• Parking:  $5
• Admission:  $5 general, $3 kids and seniors, $3 active military
• Event Address: 800 All America City Blvd, Roseville
• Web Site: placercountyfair.org

• Extremely Fun:  Yes!!!

We couldn't be more thrilled hearing that the Roseville Arts has received a $46,000 grant from The James Irvine Foundation! And it's going to fund creative arts for youth in our community!

Roseville Arts has been delivering and supporting the arts in our community for 45 years and so the news that The James Irvine Foundation is supporting our youth art is fantastic!
The program is designed to take art programming to the community in a variety of locations throughout the city in order to engage children and families spontaneously at their familiar locations.

Children ages 5-18 can expect to access active creation in arts with local artists while gaining creative experiences that are becoming less available in schools and the community.

The Blue Line Gallery has a variety of youth based programs including the annual Children’s and High School Show, after school and weekend art workshops, spring art camps, 8 weeks of summer camps and in the fall of 2011 the gallery will administer a public art project in Sculpture Park in Roseville, available to every 5th grader in the community.

The gallery was vote the Best of the Best by the Press Tribune this year and we couldn't agree more!

New Book About Roseville!

Roseville is making a print appearance in a new book that features a collection of vintage photographs!

That's right! The Roseville Historical Society is sharing the history of the area and showing how the city has developed over the years. It started out as a sleepy meadow town then a railroad hub and finally a modern, suburban city.

We at Style are excited because it's always great to know more about the place you live. For instance, before white settlement in 1849, the Maidu of Nisenan Indians lived in the Roseville area. Makes sense that The Maidu Park and library are named what they are!

So make sure you pick up your copy and learn a little more about Roseville! There is also a set of 15 postcards for $7.99. It's available at area bookstores and independent and online retailers. You can also call Arcadia Publishing at (888)-313-2665 or visit www.arcadiapublishing.com.

The 48th Sylvia Besana Holiday Parade

Who doesn’t love a festive holiday parade? (I hope no one said “Bah humbug”!) Because while I will never be a fan of all the holiday commercialism and Black Friday frenzy, I think I’ll always have a little love for a holiday march downtown.

It’s a great way to get out and support nonprofits, local groups and businesses. And you are just in luck because Roseville's downtown parade is this Saturday. This year the 48th Annual Holiday Parade has been renamed the Sylvia Besana Holiday Parade in honor of Sylvia, one of Roseville’s long-standing volunteers and a founding member of the tradition.

The parade will begin at Riverside/Douglas/Vernon intersection and proceed east along Vernon Street, turn right at Folsom Road and end behind the Roseville Square Shopping Center.

For more information and events for the holidays, be sure to check out DowntownRoseville.com.
