Placer SPCA's BBQ & Blues Event

Looking for something fun to do tomorrow night?

Check out the 20th Annual BBQ & Blues event benefiting the Placer SPCA.

According to a recent press release, "to close out the 20th Annual BBQ & Blues, the Placer SPCA has scored blues legend Curtis Salgado as the headline act. Salgado has long been recognized as one of America’s finest blues/soul singers. His most recent album was 2008’s critically acclaimed “Clean Getaway.” In past years, headliners included blues greats Koko Taylor, Elvin Bishop, Edgar Winter, Joe Louis Walker, and Pinetop Perkins. Charlie Thomas from 96.9 the Eagle and Nick Toma of CW-31's "Good Day Sacramento" will act as the event emcees, and will also show off their blues grooves in the All-Star Band on the Constable Jack’s local entertainment stage.
With eight hours of music, BBQ & Blues is a great deal for music lovers at a reduced price of just $20 in advance or $30 at the gate. The event also includes vendors, great food, and the gorgeous setting of the Gold Country Fairgrounds in Auburn. All proceeds benefit the Placer SPCA in its efforts to fulfill its vision: that every adoptable companion animal in Placer County has a home."

Disney Store’s Super Sleuth “Hunny” Pot Hunt

The Disney Store at Westfield Galleria in Roseville is hosting a fun and free event for little scavengers! Help Pooh find his hunny pots!

The Super Sleuth Hunny Pot Hunt will have little ones searching for hunny pots just like Christopher Robin and his friends Pooh and Tigger in the 100-Acre Wood! Participants will fill out activity sheets that lead them on their hunt as they seek out Pooh’s favorite tummy-filling treat.

This is a great opportunity for children to expend some summertime energy indoors and to get their creative juices flowing. Participating kids get to draw items found inside the hunny pots on their activity sheets and will receive a Super Sleuth mask and certificate following each successful discovery!

When: Saturday, July 18 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. or while supplies last

Where: Disney Store at Wesfield Galleria, 1151 Galleria Boulevard, Suite 166, Roseville. 916-788-4433.

Please note that the minimum age requirement is 3 years of age to participate.
