Point Reyes Weekend

You Mon Tsang June 1st, 2009

The Western Weekend during the weekend of June 6 and 7, 2009 celebrates the ranching roots of West Marin, with 4-H exhibits and homecoming queens.  If you are coming through for just the day, plan to watch the parade on Sunday at noon thru at Point Reyes Station.  The Western Weekend parade is the real electic mix of the area, combining the cowboy with the local food and the local artists.  It’s real local fun.
