Five Fun Things to Do in Sacramento in July 2010
July 26th, 2010 categories: Fun Things
I don’t do real estate ALL the time!
Here are my BEST 5 picks for FUN in July around Sacramento…not much time left…let me know if you have BEST of Sacramento picks, too!
SACRAMENTO
The California State Fair came early this year. Usually the CA State Fair is held during the Labor Day weekend but this year it came to Sacramento July 14th and will end on August 1st.
The California State Fair at Cal Expo ends each night at 10 p.m.
Food prices are down this year due to the economy but unfortunately parking is still $10 and entrance fees did not change from $12, seniors $10 and kids 5-12 yrs of age $8.
I have to admit I love going each year and checking out what wonderful things there are at the exhibit halls. It’s hard to go the State Fair and not smile…it’s a good feeling place with so much to do and see.
Hope to see you at the California State Fair!View Larger Map
ELK GROVE
Looking for a FREE event? Come on over to Elk Grove Regional Park and attend the Strauss Festival at Strauss Island for the 23rd year live concert and dancing in the park on July 22-25, 2010 at 7:45 p.m. The show begins each evening at 8:15 pm and ends at 10 p.m. The park does charge a $10 parking fee. Bring a picnic, a blanket, chairs and a nice bottle of wine and enjoy a relaxing evening under the stars! Maybe, I’ll see you at the Elk Grove Strauss Festival…View Larger Map
OLD TOWN SACRAMENTO
Did you know about all the underground streets in Sacramento? Are you aware that when you go to Old Town and see the shops that you are walking in on the 2nd level? The first level is underground due to all the flooding in Sacramento back in the 1800′s, the streets were built up.
Now starting July 10, 2010 there are tours of the underground areas that last about an hour. It costs $15 for adults and $10 for children. Tours of the underground are on Thursdays and Fridays from 11:00 am to 3:00 pm and Saturdays and Sundays from 11:00 am to 4:30 pm. These tours will take place through October 31st of this year and will not resume again until April 2011. Get your tickets, it’s not only historical but it is entertaining as well. Historical Old Sacramento Underground Tour I can’t wait to go and see it all myself!View Old Town Sacramento in a larger map

Sacramento Helps Our Neighbors
October 24th, 2007 categories: Elk Grove, Folsom, Rocklin, Roseville, Sacramento
Sacramento, Elk Grove, Folsom, Roseville, Rocklin and Auburn have sent fire trucks and teams to help our Southern California neighbors with the horrendous fires they are enduring.
The National Guard sent 1,500 today with another 1500 soon to be sent from the Sacramento area.
Police teams have also been sent to help relieve and keep Real Estate in check and looters away. Some of our finest will be assisting other departments with all emergency and relief help.
Rancho Cordova is where the emergency command center is and they are organizing teams of emergency help to Southern California.
With over ONE MILLION of our California neighbors forced to evacuate their home and 1500 homes lost, many have gone to friends, family and to Qualcomm Stadium in San Diego to seek refuge.
The Reverse 911 call has been instrumental during the evacuation process in Southern California during this hectic time of determining who to evacuate and when.
