Ok, so I haven't posted in a few weeks. One big reason is that Paula and I have been hard at work on the SoNo Park Holiday Fest, which will take place this Sunday from 10am to 5pm. Our company, Party Production Rentals, is one of the "presenting" sponsors, and we are helping chair the event as well. We've learned much from this, our first foray into planning a fair on city streets. More on that later... for now, I want to share what a cool event this will be.
Live music. Chili. Craft beer. Arts & crafts. More chili. Great prizes. Kid's activities. And more chili. Thorn Street in North Park between 32nd and Boundary. Be there.
The event features a chili cook-off with chili from 20 great area restaurants such as Urban Solace, Alchemy, Big Kitchen, and Vagabond. Coming to judge, we've got local politicos such as Susan Davis and Todd Gloria, plus well-known chefs like Deborah Scott. Individuals can also test their chili skills and bring their own homemade chili to a "pot luck" style competition inside the San Diego Ceramic Connection. You can taste the chili when you buy a hand-spun ceramic bowl that you get to keep (and trust me, this will become your favorite all around bowl in your kitchen).
There are 7 different bands/artists playing, including Joey Harris of Beat Farmers fame. The beer garden will feature craft beers from Pizza Port, Ballast Point, Karl Strauss, and Stone Brewing. We will also have the Charger game showing at Delucca's, so there won't be that dilemma of whether to miss the game or not.
See the event Web site for more details.
We hope to see y'all on Sunday! The canopies, tables, staging, chairs, linen, belly bars and more will all be provided by Party Production Rentals. We'll have a sponsor table, and I'll be the EmCee for the event, so please stop by.
