Read More8th Annual Blood Drive
Alice McAuliffe and her husband Pat will be hosting their 8th Annual Blood Drive outside their home at 1141 38th Street complete with refreshments and East Sac neighborhood camaraderie. Apparently this is the only blood drive in Sacramento that is sponsored by a neighborhood (go East Sac!). On Thursday, July 21st from 3 to 7pm, two bloodmobiles from BloodSource will be taking donations. This year, the goal is to collect 55 pints of blood to help patients and hospitals during the busy summer months. You can schedule an appointment at www.bloodsource.org/drives to schedule on line. The location code of the drive is M597. For more information or to schedule in person you can call Alice directly at (916) 451-5507. I regularly give blood at the downtown BloodSource location at 16th and Q but this will be my 3rd year of joining my neighbors in the local blood drive. I’ve already set up my appointment to go and give blood and I hope to see a lot of you there! The refreshments at Alice and Pat’s house are much better than what you get...

I got busy and needed to focus on helping my clients buy and sell properties so I ended up neglected talking about the neighborhood that I love, live in and focus so much of my work in. What better post to get started again than talking about my favorite event, the Taste of East Sac! This year the Taste of East Sac will be at a new place and a new time. The Turn Verein will be the venue and the event will run from 6:00 to 9:00. All of our favorite restaurants will be there as well as many new ones. If you haven’t already bought your tickets there is still time to get them or you can risk it and see if any are still available at the door on the day of the...
