Annie and Mary Day
Sunday, July 13 -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 pm - Timber Ridge Boys
1:00 pm - Bayou Swamis
2:00 pm - Kingfoot
3:00 pm - The Vanishing Pints
4:00 pm - Cadillac Ranch
The music continuies at the Logger Bar:
