New Enchanted Neighborhood Tour

“Coming this Saturday Tucson’s historic RillitoBend Neighborhood Association is holding its first ever walking/biking neighborhood tour to raise money to support Valley of the Moon.

This event will take explorers on a journey through the century old neighborhood surrounding Valley of the Moon: RillitoBend. Tour goers will visit homes, gardens, a hidden labyrinth, horse properties, art exhibits and, of course, Valley of the Moon.

Way back when Valley of the Moon’s story started in 1923 the nearest paved road was miles away and there were only a handful of ranches in the area. Today the neighborhood is a delightful mix of historic and modern with a totally unique character. Community is one of Valley of the Moon’s core values and this neighborhood is a great example of community done right.

“This spring, Living Streets Alliance (LSA) turned five and we’re finally getting around to celebrating. Because parties are way more fun when they’re with our friends, we’re teaming up with Tap & Bottle and Exo Roast Co. to throw a mid-summer fiesta in celebration of birthdays, beer, brew, and bikes. On Saturday, June 25th, a whole slew of events, activities, live music and more will take place at these two lovely establishments down the street from our office. Even better: a portion of all proceeds will go to support the work of LSA!

And, because we LOVE our members, we’re throwing in some extra fun just for you. Stop by any time between Noon and 6pm and we’ll have a coupon for a complimentary beer at Tap & Bottle, plus you’ll be entered to win one of our Tucson Summer Stay-cation packages. If you come between Noon and 4pm, you can also grab a free scoop of Isabella’s Ice Cream. And feel free to join in toasts and cake at 5pm to celebrate all that we’ve accomplished together over the past five years. It’s gonna be a blast!” (from FB page)
