Coming up

During our mini-marathon hiking Santa Cruz Ave. et al. yesterday searching for hotspots, we came upon posters promoting what promises to be a  pleasant summer in Menlo. To wit:

• ‘Stimulus’ Block parties June 24 and August 12 – Santa Cruz Ave. is closed from Fremont Park to El Camino for live music, children’s activities, food and fun.
• Concours d’ Elegance June 28 – technically a Stanford, not Menlo Park venue (what’s a few hundred yards among friends?), this fun Lions charity fundraiser features very cool antique cars, exotics and 100 MPG hybrids and electrics. Off Sand Hill across from Oak Creek Apts.
• Connoisseur’s Market Place July 18 & 19 -Another excuse to shut down Santa Cruz Ave., this annual event features art, crafts, kids fun, food, wine and music.

InMenlo will be there, in force!
