HIDDEN VALLEY LAKE, Calif. – Stone House Historical Society officers announced that Hidden Valley Lake’s own “Sound of Music” will be the featured entertainment at the annual Christmas festivities on the evening of Saturday, Dec. 7.

Once again, the Stone House party is in conjunction with Hidden Valley Lake Association tree-lighting celebrations.

Six home-schooled and obviously talented Salvadori youngsters – Valentina, 11; Natalina, 10; Adlai, 7; Angelina, 6; Seraphina and Peter, both 4 – will sing familiar Christmas songs, first in the historic Stone House and later for guests at the Stone House party in the HVLA Activities Center.

Instrumental solos will be offered by the two eldest children. Valentina will offer selections on the dulcimer, which she has just mastered. Like her sister Natalina, she is more accustomed to playing harp and piano.

Between performances by the Salvadoris, Stone House guests will enjoy the madcap humor and always pleasing harmonies of the Angel Light singers. Founded by Dorice Vandenbrock, then a Hidden Valley Lake resident, about 20 years ago, the Angel Lights are perennial favorites.

This year, due to health issues for Vandenbrock, the group will perform under the leadership of Shauna
Armstrong, who has been with the Angel Lights for years.

Angel Light headquarters moved from Hidden Valley Lake to Clear Lake several years ago. They continue to appear frequently at local events, as well as in benefit concerts throughout the county. In the past month they have entertained at all of the county’s senior centers and at Orchard Park and Meadowood Home.

The Stone House, the oldest building in Lake County, will be open for touring Dec. 7 from 4 p.m. to 6:30 pm., while across the quad in the activities room next to HVLA offices, society members will offer tasty treats, refreshments and entertainment. Nonresidents may enter at the Hartmann Road gate into Hidden Valley Lake.
