September 7, 2011 Back to School! Not for everyone.
It is back to school for many families this week. But September is usually a nice month for traveling for some and we get our fair share in Langley. In particular, we have the "Soup Box Derby" on September 17. Kids and adults race their homemade cars down the blocked off first street hill. Lots of fun for a Saturday morning.
If you are a musician or like music, then Djangofest on Sept 21 to 25 is a great event. "We are celebrating our eleventh season of bringing Gypsy Jazz performers to Whidbey Island Center for the Arts, to join happy fans from around the globe in this idyllic setting. DFNW is the premier showcase of Gypsy Jazz in North America, having presented some of the biggest names in the genre to thousands of enthusiastic participants. This year continues that tradition with a stellar lineup featuring America's favorite violinist/composer, Mark O'Connor, with his Hot Swing band playing in the style he came to love while touring with Stephane Grappelli. We have the great Gypsy guitarist Stochelo Rosenberg joined by the Biel Ballester Trio from Barcelona, a first for US audiences."
