Gentlemen, start your calendars. April is a crazy-busy time in Redding and around the North State. Easter Sunday and ArtHop and Kool April Nites and a variety of other events all come in the next two weeks.
- Not only is ArtHop next Saturday evening, but it’s also Family Second Saturday at Turtle Bay Exploration Park. This month’s theme is “Eggs, Eggs, Eggs.” Activities, crafts and information about the wonderful world of eggs. The event runs 10:30 a.m. until 2:30 p.m., and the usual admission fees apply.
