| March 2009 Hello Big Kahuna Club! Thanks to your support, the 28th Annual Clam Chowder Cook Off & Festival was a huge success, raising a record $66,000 for Santa Cruz Parks and Recreation! Good Samaritan Hospital from San Jose was the clear "People's Choice" winner, their clam chowder MASH unit was a big crowd pleaser. Check out the complete results from this year's event and KWAV's fun video on YouTube. The lineup for 2009 Free Friday Night Bands on the Beach will be emailed to you on April 10. All I can tell you now is that five of the bands are visiting the Boardwalk for the very first time and they all have a knack for mega hits! And if you enjoyed the Moscow Circus and Chinese Acrobats in past years, you'll love this year's new show, which will also be announced on April 10. We're all looking forward to an exciting season filled with free entertainment, great discounts, and priceless memories. We want your family's visit to be a happy and memorable one. Thanks for your feedback on how we are doing, please keep it coming! |
