All friends of the river are invited to attend the "Escape to the Tropics" Friends of the River San Bernard fundraiser. Planning is in progress for a blowout island-style party held under a huge party tent on the east bank of the river.

 

You’ll be welcomed by the sound of live island steel drums and a flower lei placed around your neck by by a lovely island native.  Enjoy a meal of whole roasted pig, cooked by Chef John Wallace, plus trimmings, a live auction, live music and dancing on an outdoor dance floor.

 

Tickets are priced at $20 for the event. See article “Island Party Tickets on Sale” below for additional information. Dress code is tropical island attire – hawaiian shirt, shorts, muumuus, sarongs and flip flops.

 

Proceeds from this fun-filled evening will be used to provide FOR programs: Adopt A Highway, boat parades, Breakfast on the Bernard, Conservation Easement, Environmental educational programs, river cleanups, the River Ranger watershed program for schools and six college scholarships.
