National

The Royal Society Jazz
Orchestra
will be performing once again in Yosemite
Valley for the annual two-day
Ahwahnee Heritage Holidays at the Ahwahnee

remember!
Experience the high-style rustic charm of the
Ahwahnee Hotel nestled in
the majestic Yosemite Valley, and the
heart-stirring music of the Royal
Society Jazz Orchestra! This rare event is
co-sponsored by the Art Deco
Society Of California, and together with
historian Tom Bopp, they have
organized many fascinating lectures,
demonstrations, and musical
presentations
related to the early years of the last century
in Yosemite. This year's
special theme is Winter in Yosemite. Special
presentations will show
that
from the start, winter activities were
concocted with delightful
creativity,
indoors and out. Ice skating, tobogganing,
ski-joring, and
snowshoe-baseball
drew guests outside, while ballroom dancing,
musical events, and the
Bracebridge
Dinner enhanced the evening hours.

FOURTH of JULY FUN FROM NO
TIME LIKE
THE PRESENT!
THE PARDEE PATRIOTIC PICNIC and Stereopticon Ice Cream
Social is a
charming recreation of a 1909 family Independence Day
picnic and
charity bazaar, with wonderful food, games and
activities for young and
old, prizes, and turn-of-the-century entertainment,
including the piano
pyrotechnics of ragtime maestro Frederick Hodges.
WHEN: Saturday, July 4th, 2009 (but let's pretend that
it's 1909). Open
noon till 4:00 PM
WHERE: The Pardee Home Museum, 672 11th Street,
Oakland, CA 94607. This
Victorian island was home to the Pardee family from
its completion in
1869 until the death of the last Pardee daughter in
1981, and still has
its front and rear gardens, with carriage house and
water tower. For
this occasion, entry is through the carriage house on
12th Street.
WHO: The picnic is hosted by the Pardee Home Museum,
and all proceeds
benefit preservation of the historic house and
gardens.
TICKETS: For advance reservation discounts, call
510-444-2187 or go to
www.pardeehome.org. Discounts are also available for
dressing
old-timey-- something that would look right for
1890-1920. Ladies, wear
your biggest picture hat and you might win the Most
Picturesque award!
TICKET PRICES: Adults, $12; Children 5-11 years $4,
under 5 free.
Adults can save $2 apiece off the at-the-door price by
purchasing
tickets in advance. Or save the $2 by showing up in
period dress-- but
only one discount apiece!
Cash or check only; sorry, no credit cards.
WHAT'S THERE: Admission includes live entertainment:
the brilliant
Frederick Hodges holds forth at the pianoforte,
dexterously filling the
air with lively turn-of-the-century rags and popular
songs of the time,
and accompanying Mrs. Pardee’s Mellifluous Musicale, a
"Bouquet of
Vocal Delights". Also included are bountiful picnic
food, cold drinks,
and ice cream made on the spot, plus games and
activities on the lawn
such as croquet, lawn tennis, volleyball and
bubble-blowing. You can
enter the cakewalk to win a delectable prize, and view
the latest 3D
pictures in a stereopticon. At the children's craft
table boys and
girls can create a special handmade keepsake or gift
to take home. The
Benevolent Bazaar (“All for a Good Cause!”) offers a
plenteous
assortment of toys, books, sheet music, knickknacks
and who-knows-what
for sale.
DIRECTIONS: From the south on 880, take the exit
marked "10th and 14th
Streets”, and proceed north two blocks along Castro to
the museum. From
San Francisco or Berkeley, turn off 580 onto 980 and
take the exit
marked "11th and 12th Streets." Turn left on 11th and
the house is
clearly visible after crossing over the freeway. Four
blocks from the
12th St. BART station; AC Transit bus lines 14 and 62
provide direct
service to the house on 11th and 12th Streets.
PARKING: It's a holiday! There's free parking on the
street-- except on
11th Street.
Come and enjoy a relaxing afternoon in the past-- and
you'll enjoy your
day even more knowing that you're supporting the
continued preservation
of one of the Bay Area's oldest historic homes.
