Porchfest Takes Place Next Weekend!

Don't miss Porchfest in the Larchmere neighborhood on Saturday, June 19th! 20 bands on 20 porches ... it's simply beautiful. More info at www.larchmereporchfest.com.

Tomorrow night, Wed. Jan. 20th beginning at 6 pm, several of your favorite Larchmere merchants will be guest bartending at the Academy Tavern.

Whether you're a neighborhood resident or just a fan of the street, this is your chance to enjoy dinner at the Academy, support the wonderful independent merchants that populate our street, and also watch some of them serve up food and drinks at this classic neighborhood joint!

Sam Gantous, owner of the Academy, has graciously agreed to donate 10% of all sales, and the merchants will be donating their tips for the night. On Wednesday nights, Sam runs a few specials, too. It's "burger night" - a burger, fries and domestic draft are just $5.95.

Come out and stump the bartenders with your favorite drink - all for a good cause!

Funds raised from the event will go towards efforts to beautify the street. Thanks in advance for your support!
