The 3rd Annual Charity Car Classic was held on July 3rd at the B.R. Cohn Winery in Glen Ellen.  Our live broadcast was sponsored by Santa Rosa Auto Body.  We had a great time.  Wine, Music, Food and Fun on a sun-filled day.  Almost 100 Classic Cars were on display in this benefit exhibit for the Redwood Empire Food Bank.  The Classic Car Sundays will continue on the first Sunday of the month through October, and we have a Weber Gas Grill you can enter to win, courtesy of our program’s co-sponsor, Friedman’s Home Improvement.  Check out the brief (under 5 minutes) video.

It’s been quite an adventure…and over 18,000 miles in weekly round trips from San Francisco to Santa Rosa.  May 1st, we broadcast live from the B.R. Cohn Winery and Olive Oil Company in Glen Ellen, the presenting sponsor since show #1 on May 19th, 2008.  Friedman’s Home Improvement joined as co-sponsor to begin our second year.   A big THANK YOU to these family owned and operated, local businesses for their advertising support.  Please support our advertisers in return.  Their websites can be visited by clicking the logos to the right.

With gratitude to all listeners of The River, those tuned in to 97.7 FM in and around Santa Rosa (including those who catch the signal in surprising places from Clear Lake to Orinda to the San Mateo coast) and everywhere else on the Internet, Lobster’s Sunday Brunch is dedicated to having fun with music, and celebrating the San Francisco Bay Area Music scene.

Appreciate being included in Sam Whiting’s “Catching Up” column recently.  The interview that appeared on the front page of the Arts and Entertainment (Datebook) section in the San Francisco Chronicle, and the heart-warming comments from readers, can be viewed at this link to SF Gate

YOU make it all worthwhile.

Cheers!

Joy Nordenstrom, a local entrepreneur and owner of Joy of Romance, Inc., has several medical challenges this year, including a brain tumor that required a life-altering 10-hour surgery. Happy to be on the other side of the stress of 2010, Joy has survived and after three months of recouping she will be ready to celebrate her physical ability to smile, an ability that was threatened by the removal of the tumor. In the business of helping individuals create passionate and thriving relationships, Joy works to make the world a more loving place.

There was magic inside AT&T Park for The Giants in the 2010 season to carry San Francisco to it’s first World Series championship, and there’s been magic inside the white, ten story big-top tent across China Basin throughout the Holiday season with this spectacular show.  Created by co-founder of Cirque Du Solei, Normand Latourelle, this elaborately staged fantasy outdoes it’s legendary predecessor in focusing specifically on the relationship between man and horse without overwhelming the senses with too much action to take in all at once.   The description of  “dream-like” is not hyperbole.  The virtual settings captivate and transport you.  The horses interplay with the riders, acrobats, aerialists and each other in truly enchanting ways.  Was fortunate to have caught the show last Thursday night and was captivated by the staging, the music and the talented cast on two and four legs.  There is an added performance tonight at 7pm and Monday at 8pm, with the final show on Tuesday January 4th at 8pm.  The next stop is Burbank.  For more information and to purchase tickets and VIP Packages, visit cavalia.net or call 1-866-999-8111.

Join us for some special Holiday Fun at the B.R. Cohn Winery Tasting Room, 15000 Sonoma Highway 12 in Glen Ellen, Sunday December 19th for live broadcast of Lobster’s Sunday Brunch, 10a-3p on 97.7 The River
