Oh boy! I am so excited! San Bruno Park puts on concerts every Friday in August starting at 6:00 pm

San Bruno concerts in the park

For the last two summers I made homemade gourmet popcorn and put them in sandwhich bags for my kids to sell for .50 cents each. They were so darn cute! My 4 year old daughter carried her metal pail full of popcorn and my 8 year old son collected the money! I have pictures somewhere that I need to find and post!

Anyways, this year’s 2009 schedule looks like this:

Aug 7th- Livewire (Dance Party Band)

Aug 14- Unauthorized Rolling Stones (Tribute Band)

Aug 21- Cocktail Monkeys (Classic Rock, Pop, Variety)

Aug 28 Dave Crimmen (50′s Rock n Roll)

Be sure to come and if you see me or my kids selling popcorn, tell us you read our blog! Thanks!

Lee Ginsburg-"San Bruno residential and investment specialist!"

Lee Ginsburg and I worked a booth at the San Bruno Farmer’s Market last Sunday and had such a blast! We are always trying to think of ways to promote our buyers and sellers  and when we heard that the San Bruno Chamber of Commerce was offering booths to promote businesses, we thought it was a great idea for us! Since our office, Prudential California Realty, is in San Bruno, I live in San Bruno, I do a good portion of my business in San Bruno, not to mention my kids go to school and play sports here, I knew a good amount of people that walked by! It was a really great experience!

Bruno All Stars 4th of July 2009 Bruno All Stars 4th of July 2009

 The San Bruno Dale Wilson 4th of July Memorial Tournement was an awesome event! The 7-8 year old “Bruno” team came from behind in two of their games and won the championship title undefeated! San Bruno has always had a passion for Pee Wee leagues and All Stars. It’s a great American feeling in San Bruno when you mix BBQ, legal “safe and sane” fireworks and lots of baseball games at San Bruno Park!

San Bruno Farmer’s Market is a GREAT success!

San Bruno Farmer's Market

 If you haven’t heard, the San Bruno Farmer’s Market started on Sunday, June 21st and is continuing every Sunday through October from 10-2pm!   Downtown Sundays will have live music, fresh fruit and vegetables, flowers, specialty breads and international food.

If you haven’t checked it out, I highly recommend swinging by! I was there on the first day and enjoyed picking out a variety of strawberries, blackberries and blueberries. I also bought some carrots, all kinds of summer squashes, and peaches! They were all delicious!

There was also a kettle corn booth, a booth for coloring and laminating commemorative pins, and a featured business. This event is put on by the San Bruno Chamber of Commerce so a featured business is an appropriate and great way for a business to promote themselves! (That means you’ll see me there one day, for sure!)

If you don’t have plans on a Sunday this summer, try to make it to the San Bruno Farmer’s Market! It’s a great local event you won’t want to miss!

Skycrest Village- New Homes- San Bruno

From the Skycrest Village, new homes in San Bruno, to the bank owned fixer uppers, San Bruno homes for sale are feeling the shift of a real estate “shake up”! Inventory over the past few weeks has dwindled down to a mere 40 homes for sale and 15 condos. That’s not too many when you consider that San Bruno consists of 14,677 households.
