Annie and Mary Day 2015
Sunday, July 12 - Annie and Mary Day at Perigot Park, noon-6 p.m.: Since 1967, the Blue Lake Chamber o’ Commerce has held this annual event — which later became part of Folklife Festival proceedings — to celebrate the historic Arcata Mad River Rail Line. The “Annie” and “Mary” in question were Annie Carroll and Mary Buckley, railroad company-employed bookkeepers from the turn of last century. Apparently, they made an impression. Yes, there’s a parade, vendor booths and grub options. But as with all the week’s gatherings, the main event is the music. This year’s lineup features:
12:00 Timber Ridge Boys
1:15 Lemon Lemon Cherry
2:30 LaPatinas
3:45 Delta Nationals
