Time for another party

When I looked at the Talk Around Town blog and saw it's been three months since I wrote a posting here, I was startled.

The Apricot Fiesta is a memory, the summer quickly past us by and the Stanislaus County Fair recorded another successful run. Now, as Labor Day Weekend approaches, Patterson is gearing up to celebrate its 100th birthday with a big bash this weekend.

The weekend will present a century of history and of memories.

A dedicated group of individuals has been working diligently over the past few years to bring us class reunions, home tours, Patterson High tours, Patterson Cemetery tours and plenty of food and beverages for the celebration. A hsitorical play is also in the works for folks to find out a bit of history in an hour.

Former Patterson residents will return for the weekend to visit with classmates, families and friends. It is going to be great fun! See you downtown for all the festivities.
