PORCHFEST VIEW

By Chris Murphy

Modesto’s biggest party

will happen on May 21. It’s so big in fact, that it will be held at more than 40 local porches. Yes, PorchFest is coming and you can enjoy nearly 60 different band, performing on people’s porches in the College, Downtown, and LaLoma neighborhoods. I am proud to be one of those porches in the LaLoma neighborhood featuring the new Shelly Streeter Band, the Vibes, Porch Beatles and Third Party. From noon-5, you can ride your bike, walk or stroll to the many different porches and have a blast. Some porches have food and drink but please be prepared and stay hydrated. This is a free event so kick so please remember to tip the bands. Final schedules will be posted mid May. You can pick up march and signs May 13 at Ralston’s Goat from 10-1 See you all soon.
