Los Bambinos, Puerto Vallarta Mexico’s most popular club band is making a return trip to Friday Harbor on July 5th. That means another “funraiser” at the Brickworks as the San Juan Community Home Trust presents their 2nd annual Mexican Fiesta dinner, dance and concert celebration. These four brothers from Puerto Vallarta are looking forward to returning to San Juan Island in Washington, USA.

Last year’s lively event drew an overflow crowd to the Sunshine Alley location and tickets for this year are now on sale at the Home Trust office at 435-C Argyle Ave, and on Saturdays at the Farmer’s Market.
Tickets are $25 in advance or $30 at the door. Kids’ tickets are $15.00.

Dinner will be served at 5:30 pm with a menu of tacos, green corn tamales, beans, rice, and salad. Aquas frescas, margaritas and beer will be served, plus coffee and a special dessert of miniature? chocolate tamales. The concert of Latin music and dancing will follow the dinner.

There will also be a silent auction and a raffle for a chance to win a week at a lovely condo in Puerto Vallarta, including dinner out and another concert with Los Bambinos in their home town! The tickets are $50 each with only 100 tickets being offered for sale.

The Home Trust, a local non-profit, is part of a national organization of Community Land Trusts that build permanently affordable homes on San Juan Island; they have built 29 so far, and have recently begun plans for their third local project.
