Thanks everyone for stopping by on a beautiful Saturday in the valley! KLZR was proud to host a block party on 2nd Street as Memorial Day parade goers enjoyed great music from Bruce Hayes and Ragged Mountain Bluesgrass, good eats and lots of catching up with friends. KLZR thanks organizer extraordinaire TC Smythe for running the show and for bringing along Kenton and Andrew who were there all day for setup, takedown and good cheer.
