The LesDunBelle Blog, which reports on the doings in the corner of the neighborhood comprised of Leslie, Duncan and Bellefonte Avenues, has a post up about our local Special Olympics basketball champs, the Bellefonte Wizards. The Wizards have set their sites on national competition and they need the Del Ray community to participate in their bake sale fundraiser this weekend at the farmer’s market.

You’ve got to hop on over to the LesDunBelle Blog and read the Bellefonte Wizards story.

The post also tells you how you can help out, especially by baking for the sale, buying tasty treats at the bake sale (my speciality), or donating money.

The Del Ray Farmer’s Market, a producer’s only market, opened for the season on April 11th at East Oxford and Mount Vernon avenues. The market has been open year-round this year on a limited basis. The market is open from 8 a.m. until noon every Saturday.

A little birdie told me the Del Ray Farmer’s Market is going to be open year-round, although there will be fewer venders throughout the winter months. Then I forgot to follow up. Then I saw a notice on the Del Ray Citizen’s list-serv and it reminded me.

In other news, I’ve got some enthusiastic neighborhood tipsters promising to help me keep this site up-to-date and interesting for those who want to use it.

Here’s to a fun and exciting 2009 here in our cute little neighborhood!
