California Christmas Party

Monday, December 10th, 2007

XornSurfing_Santa.jpgThe Discover California Wine Bar & Tasting Room is holding its third annual California Christmas Party on Thursday December 13th from 5:00PM to 8:00PM. It’s the perfect opportunity to show visiting relatives from out-of-state what it really means to be a Californian. There will be delectable Californian wines and food to taste and the decor will be entirely California based. They are even going to have a Californian Santa Claus who will be dressed in shorts and sunglasses carrying his favorite surf board. All attendees will receive beach balls, sunglasses, and visors to add to the summery ambience. You also get a complimentary wine glass with the Discover California logo on it. The price is only $15.00 per person–just remember that no one under 21 will be allowed to attend. However, since it is going to be in downtown Sacramento, you could just drop them off at the Westfield ice rink on your way over…

In any case, it’s sure to be one of the few activities geared entirely towards adutls for the Christmas season. That means it’s one of your only chances to escape your own belvoed little demons for a couple of hours. Furthermore, it should be entirely worth it just to see Santa and all of the idiots who will show up in summer attire freeze their butts off. Frankly, I can think of no better source of entertainment then watching someone become disabused from the sunshine image California is so often associated with. it’s sure to be worth at least a couple of laughs–as long as you’re not one of the idiots trying to be in costume that is!!!

About Sacramento, CA

When Sacramento was founded in 1849, I don't think anyone bothered to notice that it means "Holy Sacrament" in Spanish. After all, it wasn't a very apt name for a lively, growing mining town where gambling and saloons where the status quo. Perhaps to gain a modicum of respect, they paid California $1 million in 1854 in order to become the State Capitol. In the years since, it has evolved from a little mining town into a bustling city full of people from every culture and every walk of life. In addition, our status as the most ethically diverse city in America also means that we have something for everyone to do. There are numerous ethnic restaurants, tons of museums, and countess festivals in historic Old Sacramento that make the city an excellent place to visit and an even better place to live...
