San Bruno Fourth of July

San Bruno Fourth of July is always a lot of fun for its residents and visitors alike. Safe and sane firework sales go to non profit organizations throughout San Bruno. We were at our friend’s house on San Bruno Ave. the whole evening and had such a blast with 4 other families and our kids. We did fireworks in their driveway and celebrated with chile con carne, potatoe salad and nachos. Mmmmmm…good!

Not only are fireworks and barbecues a BIG and exciting draw for our city but we have the BEST Pee Wee Baseball tournaments for miles! This past July 4th, 5th and 6th our San Bruno 10U and 8U teams won their championships and we are PROUD! We were supporting our friends the whole weekend at San Bruno Park and Parkside Middle School from 8 am to 5pm each day. The weekend was full of sun, fun and PLENTY of BASEBALL! For more info check out this site! www.sanbrunopeeweebaseball.org

Pending sales are up and prices are down! Come one, come all! Real estate is picking up steam here in “The City with a Heart”! There are currently 94 single family homes on the market and 53 PENDING! We haven’t seen movement in the market like that since 2005! That’s great news for people thinking of selling and with the amount of inventory to choose from, it’s great for buyers who want to shop around!
