Lammers Keep Calm ... Get Away ... GO TO THE MOVIES!

Thank you, Main Street Association, for our annual “Pajama Party Movie Night” on Sunday, September 4, at 7 p.m. Everyone is invited to join us at the Park Cinema downtown to enjoy the 1969 movie “Hello Dolly” on the big screen. It’s only $10 (including popcorn and a soda). Pajamas are optional; prizes will be given. This event has been happening every September for over 20 years. It’s fun, and the movies are light-hearted and entertaining. You’ll see friends and neighbors while treating yourself to a step back in time! For tickets, call (805) 238-4103 or go to My805Tix.com

Main Street keeps Paso’s traditions alive. Traditions help us establish our identity and teach the next generation a shared past. It’s hard to keep traditions alive in this modern society! They are long-established conventional and historical events. Main Street has provided events every year that remain customary and successful because they promote our businesses and create relationships with locals and visitors. Everyone knows we’re better together … it’s part of that small-town feel that’s so Paso!

Another one of our oldest (26 years) and most popular traditional events is “The Taste of Downtown.” On September 17, from 11 a.m. until 4 p.m., samples from over 25 restaurants and tasting rooms will be available. Tickets are $25. This is a fun day of casual walking while sampling food and beverage throughout downtown. It’s an opportunity to get to know the downtown businesses that are here to serve you! To add more fun to this day, the Art Association presents “Arte de Tiza” on 11th Street sidewalks in the park. Artists of all ages will begin their amazing chalk art creations at 8 a.m. It promises to be a great day in downtown Paso Robles. Call Main Street for tickets (805) 238-4103 or My805Tix.com.

September always starts with the celebration of Labor Day on the first Monday of the month. Since 1882 this federal holiday honoring and recognizing our American labor force movement has signified the end of summer.

We start hosting new beginnings:

School is getting underway. We have the reappearance of football and the emergence of the Harvest Moon. On the 10th, this moon appears early in the morning and continues to rise early through the Autumn Equinox (September 22), giving farmers extra time to harvest their crops. This equinox ushers in fall. with equal hours of day and night.

Now, we’re ready for a change in weather! George Eliot said, “If I were a bird, I would fly about the earth seeking the successive Autumns,” and Vincent Van Gogh said,” as long as autumn lasts, I shall not have hands, canvas, and colors enough to paint the beautiful things I see.”

Here’s hoping the first three quarters of 2022 have been good to you and that peace, health, happiness, and success will fill your 4th quarter, bringing you joy, love, and laughter!
