Great news Southwest contributors and readers:

Thanks to your response we found a great cover story for our September 17th issue of The Southwest Voice! Reader Diane Quijano is writing a story about The Kern River Band - a group of regular guys that decided to pursue their love of good ol' country music and will now be playing at this year's Kern County Fair.

But wait, there's more! Room for more stories that is!
Will you or someone you know be doing anything special at the fair this year? Does fair season have a special meaning to you? Share your stories with us! Our deadline for this issue is:

MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 8 at MIDNIGHT!!!!!

Also, don't forget to get your tickets for tomorrow's Village Fest if you haven't already. The event proceeds go to a great organization, the Children's Resource Advocates Endowment, which provides grant funding to local nonprofits that assist with children's needs in Kern County. Their goal is to raise $1 million dollars this years, so help them out by buying a ticket and having a great time at the event.

Have a great weekend,
