COMMUNITY PARK FUND RAISER WITH LOCURA AT MATEEL COMMUNITY CENTER FRIDAY JULY 10
Mark your calendars for Friday, July 10. KMUD and the Southern Humboldt Community Park invite you to join us at the Mateel Community Center for a Loteria [lah-tah-REE-ah] Latin Fiesta with LoCura [low-KOO-rah]. They’re an amazing band mixing Latin, Flamenco, Reggae and Cuban style music. This family affair begins at 5 and it will get hotter all night. Rene will be cooking another incredible Latin feast. We’ll be serving margaritas, beer, wine and non-alcoholic beverages. Bring money to play Mexican Bingo, which is way more fun than regular bingo, and we’ve tracked down some great silent auction items. AND you will be busting open pinatas for ALL ages, all night. We hope you will make it out to support the park and the community. Come out on Friday, July 10th—dinner starts at 5, Lotería at 6, and LoCura will play at 9, at the Mateel in Redway. $18 admission, dinner and drinks extra. See you there!
