DIO fest Boulder Creek

 

From the website:

DIO Fest exists so that corporate mega-festivals don’t eventually rule the world. It exists to help us remember that the person on the stage is not so different from the person in the audience, or the local farmer that’s supplying the grinds. It serves to remind us that we can do great things when we come together. 

KBCZ Dance Party is This Saturday Night!!

This Saturday night is the KBCZ Dance Party! Please come out and support our efforts in creating a community radio station right here in Boulder Creek! Our silent auction is shaping up in an exciting way. If you have friends or relatives coming to visit this year, you could give them a stay in a cabin provided by Big Basin State Parks or a kayak tour in Elkhorn Slough or a wine tasting for 10 in the beautiful vineyard of Savannah-Chanelle.  We will have beer and wine and non-alcoholic drinks and delicious snacks provided by Boulder Creek Pizza and Pub and a scrumptious dessert buffet provided by Dessert First. Come and mingle and enjoy a laugh, you may get some of these items for a song! Speaking of songs, ask DJ Sam to play your favorite dance tune and have him dedicate it over the mic to whomever you wish! See you there this Saturday night at 7:00pm upstairs in the Odd Fellows Building!!

Oliver’s Fund – Help Boulder Creek Elementary Student

Local resident and Boulder Creek Elementary kindergartner Oliver is fighting Leukemia.

Click HERE to help he and his family out..and donation helps.

From the page:

As many of you know 5 year old Oliver was recently diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. He’s anxious to get back to his kindergarten classmates at Boulder Creek Elementary but for now he is receiving treatment in Santa Clara. Parents and friends of his classmates are getting together to raise funds to support his family with the costs of treatment, travel costs to and from the hospital as his parents try to navigate work and caring for Oliver. We’d also like to raise funds to buy an iPad to be used so that Oliver can Skype with his classmates. Staying in touch with his friends will be an important part of his recovery. Please help if you can!
