Time to Play – Hard – at the Hometown Country Fair

“When he worked, he really worked. But when he played, he really played.” Dr. Seuss

It’s finally here! The 8th Annual Hometown Country Fair and it is sure to be a great Saturday for food and family fun. There will be an awesome car show, carnival rides, a silent auction, animals, great food, live entertainment and games for kids of all ages, and arts and crafts vendors. The fair also provides a great fundraising opportunity for many local nonprofit organizations, especially those benefiting local youth groups. So come on out and support your favorite group or team at their booth. We will have freshly grilled hamburgers, Korean barbecue, Armenian shish-kabobs and even the Grilled Cheese Truck. Every food to satisfy every palate … come hungry.

Celebrate with us Saturday, April 6 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and delight in our wonderful fair. Come see the veiled chameleon, pygmy hedgehog, llamas, golden eagle, snakes, and wolf hybrid from the Wildlife Way-Station.

Like prizes? Play at the game booths or stuff your face with some good pie in the pie-eating contest. The entertainment from bands to dance troupes will have you singing and dancing while enjoying classic cars and hot rods in the car show! Did we mention this year’s silent auction items – $100 home cleaning certificate from J’s Maids, two tickets to Universal Studios, two tickets to any performance at the Alex Theatre, free web hosting for life by Caspian Services, custom logo and 1,000 business cards from Riley & Associates Advertising and so much more!

Join us for our upcoming mixer on Wednesday, April 10 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at 360 Auto Clinic, 3835 Foothill Blvd. Our mixers are always sure to be a good time with refreshments, a raffle, and networking. 360 Auto Clinic is a quality mechanic shop in La Crescenta and Glendale. They service the big cities of Burbank, Tujunga and Pasadena with a distinctly small-town attitude of personal customer service. Their experienced local mechanics could probably install a timing belt while blindfolded in space, but they haven’t forgotten how to make a customer smile with fast work, low prices and old-fashioned honesty. Car repair and maintenance doesn’t get any better in the greater Los Angeles area, so bring them your vehicle today. 360 Auto Clinic is the best auto repair shop in town, and they’re not afraid to say it because they prove it every day. After all, it’s their mission.
