by Rania Hamdy
The Redlands Festival Series is set to begin the first week of April and run through the end of May. But spring time in Redlands officially begins with the Redlands Bicycle Classic, March 22-25, 2007. This years event is part of the 2007 National Racing Calendar. More information about race times and the Start/Finish Line celebration can be found at, www.redlandsclassic.com.
The Festival Series starts April 7th with a free walking and biking tour of four sections of the Historic Zanja. The tour titled Zippity Zanja, will also feature lectures, exhibits, activities and music at Jubilee Headquarters at the Historic Barton House. The excitement of spring continues with a different event scheduled every weekend.
An event that shouldnt be missed is; The Treasures & Hidden Neighborhoods Tour, a guided bus tour thru Redlands on a Braswell Trolley scheduled for April 14th. Reservations are required and seating is limited. To reserve a spot on the Trolley call 909-798-6087.
The 95th Annual Flower Show, Garden Tour and Plant Sale is set for April 28-29 at ESRI Caf. I look forward to the Flower Show particularly for the ornate arrangements that participants work so hard to create. During the week Market Night continues every Thursday night in Downtown Redlands.
The Redlands Festival Series is a two-month celebration that reminds us of why our community is a truly great place to live. For a complete listing of events visit, www.redlandsfestival.com or stop by the Tourism Information Desk at A.K. Smiley Public Library for Festival Series brochure.
