Oakhurst Area Chamber of Commerce helps plan new event for 2007
http://www.southernyosemite.com/

Oakhurst Area Chamber of Commerce and Dave Wolin Inc. plan a Film Festival in March 2007, designed to bring approximately 500 plus people from out of town to spend 5 days in our area from March 21 – 25th. We are hoping to develop this event as time goes so that we fill the area with activities, celebrities and tourists during one of our shoulder seasons. If you would like to offer special activities, rates, meals, or anything else you can think of, please let us know.

"11" Things you need to know before you list your property.
by Ed Bailey, Realtor Century 21- Ditton Sierra Realty

Years of experience, study, and research have given professional realtors® some knowledge and insights that may be of some help to the typical home seller or buyer:

“You’re Invited” to the All Artist Recognition Reception
This is an Invitation!
by Al Joyal

Every year many artists in our community win awards for their artwork; I often mention a few words in my “You’re Invited” column in the Sierra Star newspaper, trying to explain their individual achievements. I thought it would be nice to (once a year) gather the award-winning artists, meet them and toast their achievements.  That is the intention of the All Artist Recognition Reception.
