Ventura Rocks!
October 4, 2007
Just a stone's throw down the coast from the Horny Toad HQ is the community of Ventura, home to several Toads. In this beachside town, for the past five years, an amazing group of concerned citizens collectively called The Ventura Hillsides Conservancy (of which one of our own toadettes is a founding member) has put on one rockin' concert in the very hillsides that they are working to preserve. Beyond the fact that this concert draws some great musical acts and great folks to enjoy it with, the proceeds go to a great cause - preserving Ventura's hillsides, canyons and open space in their natural state. Last year Brett Dennen, our new Toad affiliated musician, opened the show and this year's sold-out show kicked off with Chris Pierce, a long-time league-of-toads musician. It was an amazing event with tons of good vibes flowing, along with beer and wine. Rock on Ventura, rock on!
