Aug 28,2011 Acrobats

We heard there was a show being put on by a French couple who use their sailboat as a backdrop for their acrobat show and decided to go see what it was all about.They do acrobats using the ropes and sails of the boat.They have a funny act and a romantic act.We only stayed for the one show as we didn't want to wait for another hour and half for the next one.They were pretty good although you really need to be there to appreciate what they do.They travel around doing their act for donations.They said next year they will be in french Polynesia.

Aug.5,2011 Coho Days Art show,Brown Bag And Wine

During CoHo Days we had a art show,showing all the talents of some the leaseholders.There is a lot of talent here in the park.Some of the crafts are carving and painted gourds,trash can jewelery,photography,and decorated bras.


The bras were made by Diane Roulier for away to raise money for cancer.There was a event called Bras for a Cause and they were bid on at a auction.They raised $10,000 for the cause.She also makes the trash can jewelery out of poptop for soda cans.Very inventive.
We also had a brown bag auction and made money for the Vets.
We also had a wine and cheese tasting and the proceeds went for charity.This event was very well done and there was a wine basket full of wine and goodies for a raffle. The couple putting on the event also took wine bottles and decorated them with lights and decorations and were given away in the raffle as well. We really enjoyed this event and I also helped serve the wine. 


























Besides the wine they had a car show before the wine tasting and they had some real beauties.
Holding up the rear.
A great ending to a great week.
