Happy Thursday, Valley Hoppers!

We have a STACKED weekend across the entire 209 corridor!
Below are a few notable callouts.

We have two very different carnivals running in both Tracy and Stockton, not including Oakdale’s iconic Rodeo. Look out for the after parties going on at Dying Breed both days. Then, both Modesto and Stockton’s Children’s Museums have some really cool activities worth checking out if you have littles or grandkids.

John Crist’s show at Bob Hope is selling out FAST, so get your tickets now if you plan on attending!

And finally, we have Chris Botti at Turlock Theatre this Sunday, so if you love jazz like I do, he’s one of the best to do it performing today.

Enjoy yourselves this weekend everyone.
