Happy Friday, wonderful neighbors!
If your calendar has a little room left this summer, I’ve got a few ideas for you.
In fact, there are so many great events and offers that it’s becoming harder and harder to fit everything into one newsletter! Several of you have even told me it’s impossible to get through it all – and this is still only a small glimpse of everything our members and community have going on!
If you’re looking for even more inspiration, be sure to check out our Yountville Community Calendar, where you’ll find even more events, experiences, and happenings taking place throughout the season.
Grab a friend, get outside, support a local business, and enjoy everything summer has to offer. I’ll see you around town!
