An undisputed masterpiece, Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman give career-defining performances as Rick Blaine, the hard-drinking American running a nightclub in Casablanca when Morocco was a crossroads for spies, traitors, Nazis and the French Resistance, and Ilsa Lund, the woman Rick loved years earlier in Paris and whom he believes abandoned him. Set amidst the backdrop of World War II, Casablanca reaches the epitome of love and sacrifice as Rick and Ilsa weigh their own happiness against the fate of the world. (Michael Curtiz, 1942, 102 min.)

Building and Racing 1-3 pm

Cost:  $30 (SMMM members)

ANNUAL KARDBOARD KAYAK RACES

Sponsored by Condor Espress
Supported by Sambo's Restaurant
Additional Support by 
SB County Parent Click, SB Family Life
Channel Islands Outfitter
SB Sailing Center and Sushi Go Go

The Kardboard Kayak Race is where teams participate in a battle of wits,
design, and courage.  Teams of up to 4 will receive 2 sheets
of cardboard, 1 roll of tape, a marker, a utility knife, a yardstick, and
one hour to construct a functioning kayak.  Then they will be ready to race 
other teams in their heat, finding out whose design can hold up to the
pressure of paddling out to a buoy and back. The Kardboard
Kayak Races are divided into separate heats, with prizes awarded to
participants in the Family Fun heat (geared to family groups with younger
kayak paddlers) and the Paddling Pros heat (geared toward adult and/or
"skilled" competitors).  Speed and construction design will be the true test!

If you prefer to mail in the form, you can download the application.

Mail the form to:  SBMM
Attention:  Kayak Race
113 Harebr Way, Suite 190

The Declaration of Independence

The Declaration of Independence
In Congress, July 4, 1776


We hold these truths to be self evident,
that all men are created equal, that they are
endowed by their Creator with certain
unalienable Rights, that among these are 
Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.
That to secure these rights, 
Governments are instituted among Men, 
deriving their just powers from consent of
the governed.  That whenever any form of 
Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is 
the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it,
and to institute new Government, laying its foundation 
on such principles and organizing its powers in 
such form, as to them shall seem most likely
to effect their Safety and Happiness.

Have a Healthy, Safe and Happy Fourth of July!

About Me

My photo
SantaBarbaraTalk.blogspot.com
Santa Barbara, CA, United States
For over 30 years, I have taken great pleasure in helping Buyers and Sellers make their real estate dreams come true! From condos to castles I know the territory. I delight in sharing information about our wonderful Santa Barbara lifestyle. Volunteering with the Assistance League of Santa Barbara, The Teacher’s Fund, Santa Barbara Association of Realtors keeps me active. Currently, I serve as Chair of the non-profit Mastick Foundation. My late husband and I mentored and housed collegiate athletes playing summer baseball with the Santa Barbara Forester organization. With Doug now fly-fishing in heaven, I enjoy traveling with girlfriends. My bragging rights include numerous awards from my peers at the Santa Barbara Association of Realtors and the SB Newspress Readers’ Choice Award as Realtor of the Year. I’m the happy recipient of much repeat business and referrals from my wonderful clients, many of whom have become my friends. I am fluent in Patience, Kindness, Detail, Negotiation Skills, Real Estate, English, and Customer Care. Consider me your Santa Barbara Concierge because I truly know the territory.
