Event comments

A music store & other music venues are downtown on Fourth St on the 10k route, but Montgomery Village on both routes has various musical events. See www.mvshops.com . A clock tower is visible across Courthouse Square at the old Empire Building, now Hotel E on the 10k. Possible Selfie with Lucy on the bench near the public library at 4th & E St on 10k. City Hall is across from Burbank Gardens at 100 Santa Rosa Ave. A fee is required to enter the actual Burbank home, but the surrounding gardens are free. Release dates for Pliny the Younger create long lines outside Russian River Brewing Company on the 10k! Cemetery guide and Village directory is available in the walk box. On your return meander through the open air Montgomery Village shopping center with wonderful shops and restaurants.
