CLAREMONT
In Tune with June 

Memorial Day Weekend ... Can June be far away? Oh boy, Summer fun is here!

This eBuzz includes an overview of oodles of Claremont events -- even more are found at ClaremontEvents.com -- including concerts at Bridges Hall of Music.

Do You Know THE VIL CLARE photos are often changed. In fact, I recently visited the Alf Museum and designed a new photo gallery focusing on this very special Claremont venue.

Have fun and enjoy some new adventures in June.
Giggles & Cheer,
