Don’t forget to visit the Civic Club’s Antique and Maker Fair in Oakland at the old Armory building from Friday through Sunday.  It’s always a hit, with great vendors and great food that is provided by the ladies of the Civic Club.  I’ll be there Saturday afternoon selling raffle tickets for them and helping as cashier in the cafeteria.  If you stop by, say “hi.” And, remember, the $3 admission fee is donated back to the community!
