Party Time

The city's festivals will start early this Summer with next weekend being a big one in Carmel.  Not only will the Carmel Marathon Championship weekend be taking place but Rock The District will also be on tap for Saturday night June 11.  The Carmel Arts and Design District has a great line up of all types of music and you can get the full list of groups and activities HERE. Some subtle schedule changes have RTD a bit earlier in the Summer in 2011 and frankly we're liking it.  While I'm not overly familiar with Yacht Rock Review's work, this FREE event is always one our entire family enjoys taking in and we will again next weekend. The nice thing is this year it's at a time on the calendar when we're not in a mad dash to get ready for school starting, pack in end of Summer vacations, etc.  Note to Yacht Rock Reveiw.....no worries on my level of fandom.  I'm probably a bit out of your demo.  If for nothing else but a great bit of food, amosphere and people watching, you'll want to put RTD on your schedule for next Saturday night.
