Punk-N-Barry's

Well hello again Blog Buddies! So here I am working away at our awesome events, and I have decided to take a break and fill you all in…

I was lucky enough Friday to stop and get a to-go order from Punk-N-Barry’s. WOW, they have some serious décor! If you are a Coke-a-Cola, Disney, or Campbell’s fan this place is a must. In addition to being prompt the staff was beyond friendly and recommended I stop and visit the Red Cock while I was in town. When I informed them I was a local they proceeded to give me a locals discount! How amazing is that? Even the out of towners get a discount!

The burger was reasonably priced and very fresh. Also another huge bonus for me was they did not salt the fries; they put the salt on the side!

Later that night was the Relay for Life. I was scheduled to walk from 9:30-11:30 PM. I thought I would need to stop and eat something first but incredibly enough I was still full from the burger! I must say it was the heartiest $7 I have ever spent. I would definitely be sure to stop in and try a burger today!

Sinbad at the Casino

People often ask, “What it is you do for fun in Lincoln City?” I find this to be an odd question. We have so much to do beyond the gorgeous beaches. A perfect example of this would be having a girls night out! Katera and I just happened to be lucky enough to have that happen this weekend! YES, no kids, no men, just fun! We decided that we wanted a good laugh so we went down to Chinook Winds Casino Resort and ate dinner, had a few drinks, then caught the Sinbad comedy show. It was great, I laughed so hard and the whole audience was just busting up. The show was some of the funniest 90 minutes I have seen in my life. Even better yet in September we have some very funny women flying out from New York to perform during our Iris Pride Festival. We will be having Lisa Kaplan and Jackie Monahan perform at Surftides!We are very lucky that even though we are a small town we have top-notch entertainment here. Well, that is it. Just wanted to touch base with you all and rub in what a good time I had Friday night, I can't wait till September!

My first blog.

Hello outside world!

As I sit here typing this blog I am trapped in my cement cube office with no windows, pity me for this, as I cannot see the beautiful sun shining outside on the beach.  Oh well, I know the sun will still be shinning when I get off work. Besides, I have a date with the tennis court at Dorchester Park. Last week I went to Good Will and bought some tennis equipment. I can honestly say that was the most fun 9 dollars has ever awarded me, in addition to the workout and awesome tan.

So moving along, back to the task at hand; Setting up a blog site for the employees of the Lincoln City Visitor and Convention Bureau. “Amazing” you say, you just wait! As I set this up I have big goals. Let’s talk for a minute about what I hope, with your help, to accomplish.

·        Start an open and honest forum pertaining to all things in Lincoln City.

·        I will be setting up “Blog Spots” at events and letting event attendees speak up about their trip live from the event.

·        Spreading information of little known ‘local’ fun things to do.

·        Most importantly just have fun and hear what people have to say about our town.

So yeah, that is it, (drummmmmmm rollllllllllll)

THE FIRST EVER VCB BLOG!

I know somewhere there is a roar of applause other than in my head.
