In our first attempt in 2019 we got caught off guard, being a first time event and supposed to rain all day, we expected around 600 attendees, to our amazement we got over 2000 and quickly ran out of food. Not this year, this year we are prepared to handle whatever is thrown at us, rain or shine.



Instead of two food locations we now have nine. We have three music stages with incredible bands including Beau Rumpus, the Funky Gators, Primitivo Latin Rhythm Band, Jeramy Norris & the Blues Cartel and the Rusty Rockers as well as Ras Beeken on Saxophone & Nicholas Lefler on Guitar at the Black Bart Inn from 3:00 to 6:00 and the Saints of Circumstance immediately following our Festival playing at Gooney’s Bar & Grille at 5:30 all included for the advance ticket price of $5 or $10 at the gate. The Festival stretches the length of Main Street, into the Metropolitan Theater, around the Metropolitan Theater Parking Lot, down into the Field below and across Main St. into Nielsen Park and Parking Lot.

We now have acquired two High Capacity Commercial Crawfish Boilers for the Louisiana Crawfish being flown in the night before. Other food includes but not limited to: Crawfish, Beignets, Lobster Tails w/Noodles, Cajun Catfish, Hawaiian Shaved Ice, Jambalaya, Cajun Hot Links, BBQ Oysters, Beef/Chicken/Pork Sliders, Cajun Shrimp, Cajun Fries, Cajun Chicken, Cajun Dogs, Sausage Sandwiches and much more.

Tickets are now on sale in San Andreas at Gooney's Bar & Grill, The Metropolitan Theater and the Chamber of Commerce Office and in Valley Springs at The Parlour Pub, online at www.sanandreasrotary.com or Eventbrite and as always, any San Andreas Rotarian you may come across. If you have tickets from the 2020 festival that we had to cancel because of Covid please take those tickets to any of the four locations that are selling tickets and have them replaced with tickets for this year’s event. Free parking at Calaveras High School. See You There!

Truvy’s salon is Chinquapin, Louisiana’s go-to place for a beauty fix with a hearty side of gossip. Along with her overeager assistant Annelle, Truvy pampers her small-town clients with hairdos, manicures and all kinds of unsolicited advice. Anybody who’s anybody is a regular: There’s the doting M’Lynn and her soon-to-be-married daughter Shelby, the moody Ouiser and the well-to-do widow Clairee. Through witty banter and wisecracks, this hodgepodge group of women form friendships as strong as steel, which they are forced to lean on when tragedy strikes.

Steel Magnolias is presented by special arrangement with Dramatists Play Service, Inc., New York.

Steel Magnolias previews at the East Sonora Theatre at 6:30pm on April 14 and 15, and 2pm on April 16. The show opens April 16 at 7pm. Regular performance times are Wednesdays at 12pm, Thursdays at 2pm, Fridays at 7pm, Saturdays at 2pm and 7pm, and Sundays at 2pm through May 15.

For more information and tickets please visit www.SierraRep.org or call the Box Office at (209) 532-3120. The play runs 2 hours and 10-minutes with intermission. Ages 13+, children under 5 will not be admitted.

About Angels Camp Museum
Located on a 3-acre site of the Angels Mine, the museum dedicates collections to inspire understanding of the gold country history of Angels Camp and the Mother Lode region. We create opportunities for learning, discovery and bring to life the extraordinary stories of our country’s past.

Home to one of the largest collections of wagons and carriages in the west coast, visitors can stroll through the beautifully landscaped historical park to explore extensive indoor and outdoor exhibits that include a doctor's office and the history of Mark Twain's short story of "The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County" and the ensuing Jumping Frog Jubilee. Continuing through the museum, visitors can also view two steam traction engines and exhibits highlighting mining equipment such as an overshot water-wheel in its original location, a hydraulic monitor, drills, ore cars, and even a working model of a famous stamp mill.

Bring your lunch and enjoy a picnic under native oak trees of China Gulch where the '49ers prospected for gold. Make sure to check out the Altaville Schoolhouse - one of the oldest and best preserved little red schoolhouses in the state, and the historical Sam Choy mercantile that tells the story of Chinese culture in downtown Angels Camp. Stop by the gift shop for one-of-a-kind souvenirs including a copy of the story that launched Mark Twain's literary career 'The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County.'
