Anderson Valley History Roundtable

On Sunday, February 10, 2013 at 1:30pm Valley residents will gather to hear stories from folks that were “valley kids” during the 1950’s and 1960’s. They will share stories about daily life—where they shopped, where/how they played, the fair, the school etc. Fabulous hor d’oeuvres provided. Local wines for sale. $5 donation requested. Mark your calendar for another wonderful afternoon of valley history.
