This weekend the St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church at 1955 Kirker Pass Road in Concord. They put on this event every year and it's always a lot of fun.  They feature live music, dancing, shopping and of course food and wine! The dancing is usually a presentation by the youth group and they wear full costume.  It's always very cute to watch.  Rhiannon and I usually stop by every year and I always attempt to get her to try a new food... maybe this will be the year?!

The festival is open Friday from 5-11pm, Saturday from noon-11pm, and Sunday from noon-8pm. Children under 12 are free, admission is $5, $3 for seniors.

Opa!

Come be Greek for a day!

Dear Walnut Creek School Community,

I received an email from Dick Nicoll, Superintendent in Mt. Diablo School District, concerning a possible student abduction attempt at Pleasant Hill Middle School (next to the County library.) A man approached a male student in his PE clothes. He called to the student and said, "I need to show you the new meeting spot for your mom." The man was a white male with gray hair, grey mustache, and a thick accent. A woman, with a nose ring, was with the man. The boy walked away. The Pleasant Hill Police Department was informed. Principals will all be reminding students not to talk to strangers or go with strangers for any reasons. I wanted to ensure that all parents were aware of this incident.

Sincerely,

Patricia Wool, Ed.D.
Superintendent
Walnut Creek School District

I don't have an answering machine at home that works, so I received the information from one of the other mother's at the school.  She was nice enough to call me to let me know.  While my daughter is 11 and I was pretty sure she would never go with a stranger, of course we had the talk anyway.  I wanted to pass on the description (bolded above) so we can be alert when picking up and dropping off our kids. 

I was told this incident took place last Friday, however in researching today I found it was Thursday, immediately after school.

I'm so happy the boy approached was smart enough to turn the other way and report this immediately.

Take care everyone,

My mother's newest listing, in my neighborhood.
