Like the original, The Bay Area’s Space Orchestra is an eclectic mash-up of all- stars known for their stellar work in other top Bay Area bands. With a three-piece horn section, four back-up singers and a powerhouse rhythm section of two drummers plus a percussionist, the group recreates the mighty sound of the live album. The Soul fueled voice of Sebastian Saint James brings Cocker’s lead vocals roaring back to life, driving the all-star band through hits by the Rolling Stones, Isaac Hayes, Otis Redding, Bob Dylan and more. Highlights include Delta Lady, Space Captain, Feeling Alright, and an unforgettable version of She Came in through the Bathroom Window.

About Krampus
Krampus is a figure from Alpine folklore. St. Nick and Krampus visit children on the night of Dec. 6, when St. Nick delivers gifts to good children, and Krampus delivers coal to naughty ones. Although Krampus appears in many variations, his common physical characteristics include brown or black hair, the hooves and horns of a goat, fangs, and a long, pointed tongue hanging out. It is customary to offer Krampus schnapps, a strong distilled fruit brandy.

Winter Lights Skating On The Square Opening Day
2024-11-29 16:00 - 20:00
The Santa Rosa Metro Chamber announced it will once again bring a synthetic ice rink to downtown Santa Rosa as part of the annual fun-filled, family-friendly Winter Lights program this holiday season.
The rink opens on Saturday, Nov 30 on Old Courthouse Square in Downtown Santa Rosa. Tickets will cost $11 and include a 45-minute session and skate rental, though skaters are welcome to bring their own sharp skates if they’d prefer. Rental skates are available in children’s sizes up to 9 and adults up to men’s 9.
The festivities officially kick off Friday, Nov. 29 with the annual Winter Lights Tree Lighting Celebration. This is a free, family-friendly event for the whole community featuring performances on ice, kid’s activities, live entertainment, holiday treats and drinks, as well as photos with Santa.
“We are thrilled to embrace the holiday season and bring this exciting outdoor recreational opportunity to the community once again,” said Janelle Meyers, VP of Marketing & Communications for the chamber and Visit Santa Rosa. Turning Downtown into a festive destination benefits Santa Rosa residents as well as our local shop and restaurant owners. This is a perfect way to provide festive entertainment and help make our downtown vibrant.”
Visitors are encouraged to shop and dine locally in conjunction with their skating visit. With over 50 places to dine and drink, dozens of shops and boutiques as well as local artist and maker markets taking place on Old Courthouse Square, there is much to explore and enjoy in the area this season.
The rink, manufactured by a Swiss company called Glice, is made from heat-pressed polymers rather than ice, so water and electricity are not required for operation. The materials used in the rink are 100% recyclable. With the use of zero-energy, Glice is an amazing eco-friendly skating experience that is both fun and sustainable.
Tickets are online now and will be available first-come, first-served for sessions through Dec 31. For rink days and hours of operation, ticket purchases, and more information about the annual Winter Lights Tree Lighting Celebration, along with dining and shopping recommendations visit www.downtownsantarosa.org/winterlights.
The Rink is being funded through the efforts of the Santa Rosa Metro Chamber in conjunction with the local business community. Redwood Credit Union has generously stepped up as the Winter Lights presenting sponsor. Other members of the local business community that are supporting the installation through sponsorship include Kaiser Permanente, Keysight, Dax Entertainment, Diversified Stage & Sounds, WOW Smiles, Avelo Airlines, Exchange Bank, Sutter Health, Renewal By Anderson, Amaturo Sonoma Media Group, Wine Country Radio, Recology Sonoma-Marin, The Press Democrat, Abby’s Pawn & Coin, La Rosa Tequileria & Grille, Chandi Hospitality Group, and the Sonoma County Board of Supervisors.
“The Winter Lights program brings the community together to share in the spirit of the holiday season—from the tree-lighting event to the family fun of skating, shows, and hot cocoa. RCU is happy to sponsor this event each year and bring warmth and good cheer to downtown Santa Rosa,” says Brett Martinez, President and CEO of Redwood Credit Union.

Employee Recruitment and Retention Seminar
2024-02-13 08:30 - 11:00
The Unemployment Rate in Sonoma County is a low 2.5%, making it difficult for companies to find and keep good employees.
For over 3 decades, Chris Stonick has helped thousands of organizations across the country recruiting and retaining workers and students alike. From small companies with just a few employees to international organizations who employ thousands, this program is equally successful. The inventive recognition/retention side of the program generally nets employers a 25% decline in turnover within one year! That saves money, time spent training, and increases productivity and morale. His enthusiasm and straight forward plan is easy to understand, highly effective, and cost efficient.
Join Amaturo Sonoma Media Group at Oxford Suites in Rohnert Park, CA for a Free Breakfast Seminar to understand how you can combat this low unemployment rate. Human Resource attendees will receive 2 SHRM credits for attending!
