UPPER LAKE, Calif. — Every spring the Lake County Land Trust holds a fun event at the Blue Wing Saloon and Tallman Hotel courtyard. It is usually the “Spring Event,” but this year it is dubbed the “Spring into Summer” celebration as it is occurring a bit later than usual on June 30.
“Spring into Summer,” is open to the public and includes wine, delicious appetizers created by Chef Pablo of the Blue Wing, music by IndieGroove and a short update on the latest progress on Land Trust projects around Lake County.
The event is held in the lovely tree-shaded courtyard of the Blue Wing and lasts from 3 to 5 p.m.
Reservations are required; tickets are $50 and are available online at www.lakecountylandtrust.org.
Click on Spring into Summer Celebration on the home page. Or, you can send your payment to LCLT P.O. Box 1017, Lakeport, CA 95453. Payment in advance is requested. For more information email the Land Trust at
Bernie and Lynne Butcher, proprietors of the Blue Wing Restaurant and Tallman Hotel have hosted this event for many years and it is always a great time to get together and socialize with other Land Trust supporters.
The Lake County Land Trust is a nonprofit charitable 501 c (3) organization dedicated to preserving open space and natural areas in Lake County.
Founded in 1993 LCLT now protects hundreds of acres of land in Lake County, including important wetlands in the Big Valley area of Kelseyville and Lakeport.
