July Mixer at the California Welcome Center

Thank you all for attending last week’s July Mixer and ribbon cutting celebration of the newly remodeled Visit Santa Rosa California Welcome Center!!! The Welcome Center has undergone a stunning transformation with a whole new lobby layout, cozy lounge area, and sparkling new bathrooms, and we’re so glad you got the chance to experience it in person!

The evening was filled with sweet soulful sounds as our guests enjoyed the captivating music of Sebastian Saint James while sipping on exquisite wines from St Francis Winery and savoring refreshing beers from Third Street Aleworks. Delightful desserts from Johnny Doughnuts and a satisfying spread from Iron & Vine kept guests content while meeting new faces and catching up with old friends.

An appearance from Snoopy was truly the highlight of the mixer, with guests snapping selfies with the star throughout the night—thank you Charles M Schulz Museum! Attendees discovered the enchantment of our HootBoard, an interactive kisosk that inspires and guides our visitors with local maps, events, and attraction information. Our guests were thrilled to explore the possibilities that Santa Rosa offers, and the HootBoard selfie wall added extra fun as people posed for pictures to commemorate the night.

A heartfelt thank you to all who attended the mixer and made it an evening to remember! Your unwavering support and enthusiasm are invaluable in making Santa Rosa an extraordinary city to visit, play, work, and live in. Together, we create magic in our vibrant community!
