Dear Friends,

The June 2007 KRCC Newsletter is up on the website, just follow this link for the full text--> http://www.krcc.org/news .

This month we talk about KRCC's Blues Under the Bridge, offer many thanks to all the donors, volunteers and staff for our successful Spring Membership Drive, plus, I give a quick update on a couple KRCC projects that are in the works.

We just posted a bunch of offers for KRCC EarlyBird Card holders at http://www.krcc.org/eb. If you're not sure what an EarlyBird Card is, you can find out here: http://krcc.org/support/index_earlybird.html (you can also get one at http://www.krcc.org/join/ )

Don't miss Mariachi Reyna de Los Angeles! This weekend.

In a musical tradition dominated by male groups, Mariachi Reyna de Los Angeles are true revolutionaries. Despite the pink charros and model-perfect looks, the women who form this group are outstanding musicians who have taken the mariachi genre by surprise with their creativity and skill. "La Reyna" came into existence through the auspices of the Mariachi Heritage Society, a non-profit organization established by Jose Hernandez, musical director of Los Angeles' renowned Mariachi Sol de Mexico. Ranging in ages from 13 to 34, the mujeres of Mariachi Reyna reflect a wide variety of mariachi and other musical influences, but all share a love of the uniquely Mexican music and its traditions. Sponsored by the Pike's Peak Library District 2007 World Music Series, the Summer Festival of the Arts, Kennedy Center Imagination Celebration and KRCC.

THE MUJERES OF MARIACHI REYNA WILL PERFORM A FREE CONCERT ON ARMSTRONG QUAD AT CC ON SATURDAY, JUNE 9TH AT 7PM. A FREE FAMILY FESTIVAL DAY THEN HAPPENS ON SUNDAY, JUNE 10 AT 2:30 PM IN THE PIKES PEAK CENTER. More information at 719-389-6607.
