JULY 2009 ISSUE
Several Norman Rockwell paintings capture the early 20th Century Spirit of America celebrating patriotic holidays. Spectators at a Parade, shows a family on a street watching a parade go by—the parade is not shown, just the shadow of the flag carrier falling on the family, especially on the rapt face of a boy. You can capture that old-fashioned spirit at the Fallbrook July 4th fireworks celebration at the Grand Tradition, sponsored by the Fallbrook Beautification Association. It may be the best fireworks show you’ll find and the day’s events, such as the rubber boat regatta, are loads of fun. That’s our cover story.
On an entirely different level, there is the summer of fun, food and classic cars that is Hot Summer Nites, a series of Friday night events sponsored by Connections Fallbrook Networking. A three block portion of downtown Fallbrook is roped off for this pedestrian-friendly event which includes tasty noshes from some of the best eateries in the area—with Friday after Friday of classic automobiles from local clubs.
In a few years residents of The Boulevard will be able to walk or bike along eight miles of river property stretching from Bonsall to Oceanside. The San Luis Rey River Park is taking shape as the County acquires various pieces to the puzzle. The most recent acquisition has been property owned by the Vessels family adjacent to San Luis Rey Downs. We get the latest news on the park from Bill Horn, whose pet project this is.
In July the Del Mar racetrack will celebrate its 70th racing season. The racetrack was the brain-child of legendary crooner Bing Crosby, who, with his Hollywood pals, promoted it into one of the party places of Southern California.
If you are a senior citizen, and a golfer, then our writer Dale Good has such a deal for you: the San Diego County Senior Golf League. You can make new friends and get in some great golf—all at affordable prices!

Great service, even better food. That’s the hallmark of the Fresco Grill in Bonsall’s River Village. It reflects the philosophy of proprietor Leone D’arcangelo, the genial host of this Italian dining experience that leans to the seaward side of cuisine.
One of the “best kept secrets” in the area is the Fallbrook Foundation for Senior Care, which provides adult day care, the Care Van and Senior Care Advocacy. Learn how you can help them in our profile of the foundation.
