 World Famous Crow Bar A big Flea Market (maybe that should be Sand Flea Market) will be held this Saturday, March 24 at the Crow Bar. It is anticipated (not promised) that there will be lots of boat stuff, new and used computer and electronic stuff, clothing, fishing tackle, tools, etc. spread all over the place.
In addition, Washer Pitchin' will be introduced to the Rio. (Caution: this is a very addictive sport).
Activities start at 9 a.m. and continue all day long.
Gourmet breakfast burritos and pancakes will be available for consumption. |
