Aug. 20 performance at Street Fest is going to be awesome. Some people may remember the band Pear from the Tom Jackson Christmas dinner fundraiser at the United Church two? winters ago; they were amazing! Pear and Pearband are one and the same!! Now all we need is a beautiful Revelstoke evening, and a warm jacket!
Does anyone know how to get a table at the winter farmers market?
