Annandale Blog celebrates fifth anniversary with Blogapalooza party


Swell performs at Blogapalooza

Thanks to everyone who came out for Blogapalooza last night.
It was an awesome way to celebrate the Annandale Blog’s fifth anniversary—with
more than 100 blog readers, community leaders, neighbors, and friends.
The bands, the food, the volunteers, the setting—even the weather all turned
out great.

The bands—Space Junk Jammers, Swell, Rootz Boyz, and One Hot Mess—were all amazing. Thank you Moe’s, Magill’s, Rice Pot, and Bon Chon for
the fabulous food; Collector’s World and Bellissimo Ristorante for the prizes; and to Party Co, Long
and Foster Realtor Melissa Klein, Coldwell Banker Realtor Vivianne Couts,
Pro Maxx Fitness, Windows Plus, Eden Center, Beanetics, and the Mason District Council.

Volunteers set up for Blogapalooza at the pavilion at the Broyhill Crest Recreation Club.
Special thank you to school board member Sandy Evans for the
nice words of appreciation, to Mollie Loeffler for organizing a fabulous event,
to the Broyhill Crest Recreation Club, and to the great team of volunteers: Judy Cotter, Nancy Joyner, Rita and Ray
Jamros, Chris Getek, Tracey Carothers, Jon Clark, Debbie Smith, Marie
Reinsdorf, Hussein Yusuf, Jerry Chiles, Melissa Klein, Vivianne Couts, Cyra Doty, Debo Burk, Regina Zapponi,
Kerrie Garlepp, Elaine Wiggins, Ben Bacon, and Matt Ashford.

The Annie Awards were presented to Silverado (best
restaurant), Beanetics (best coffee shop), Cue Club (best bar), Pro Maxx Fitness (best gym), and to AnnSandra and Collector’s World (who tied for best
gift shop). The award-winners were selected in an online survey by Annandale Blog readers.
