Contra Costa Marketplace - Feb 2017

Deb’s Dialog Editor’s Notes FEBRUARY 2017 MARKETPLACECONTRACOSTA.COM 7 As of this writing, we have received so much rain; it’s just been wonderful. Can we actually be out of the drought? That would be a gift! Let’s hope that we get several more inches of rain before spring comes so that we can all breathe a sigh of relief. Although, it pays to be water conscientious regardless. Valentine’s Day is also already upon us. Remember to treat your DEBORAH LUDLOW STEVENS special someone with something special. Many of our advertisers have Valentine’s Day specials so be on the lookout and shop local. Shopping local gives back to our communities which is a gift in itself. Have a wonderful month! Deborah This month, I am so excited to share with you the story on Bandaloop based in Oakland, CA. I came upon them on Facebook through a friend of mine who I used to work out with. Her brother, Melecio Estrella, is the Assistant Artistic Director there as well as dancer extraordinaire! Bandloop is a pioneer of vertical dance - yes, you read that right. Vertical. They dance and fly off of buildings, cliffs and more. When you read JULIA SMITH their story you will understand. Quite an amazing journey and dance that is death-defying all at the same time. My hope is to actually make one of their performances in the near future! I hope you enjoy the story as much as I do!
