The Sunday Market kicked off the year on June 19th in the heart of downtown Roslyn. The event was well represented by farmers, growers, bakers, and artisans – and many members of the community (and tourists) showed up to enjoy the day. Wendy and I listened to some of the musical entertainment, and then treated ourselves to a breakfast croissant and some fresh baked bagels. There was also plenty of scrumptious produce, dairy and meat products on hand. I was too full to indulge in a Casa De Blanca Tamale, but they looked delicious, so it’s definitely on my checklist for next weekend. The Market will take place every Sunday through September 11th and a complete list of vendors can be found here.

On Saturday, March 12th, the Brick came alive for the 23rd Annual Water Spittoon Race & Nautical Ball. One hundred and eleven boats entered in all – with 73 boats filling out the wood category (other categories included paper, plastic, soap and experimental). The races kicked off at 1pm and continued into the early evening. Though competition was fierce and beer was flowing, good sportsmanship was a trait shared by all – ensuring that everyone had a great time regardless of how their boats were performing. A brief video of the event is available below:

It’s not uncommon to see dogs perform tricks for treats, but on Halloween day, the dogs get dressed to trick-or-treat in Roslyn. The weather was cooporative as the dogs of Roslyn showed off their costumes in this year’s Paws on Parade celebration. Check out the video to see a sample of the parades participating pooches.
