shirlJAM returning to Helwig! 
On Friday, August 19th, I'm excited to be making a return visit to the stunning Helwig Winery in the Shenandoah Valley.  Anyone who has visited this special spot knows what a gem it truly is.  Incredible views, delicious wines!  This is a Wine Club event weekend, not open to the general public.  Whaddya mean, you're not a wine club member???  Great time to join, I say! :>)   I'll be performing from 11:00 am till 3:00 pm.  Whaddya mean, you work for a living??  Take the day off, for crying out loud!  :>)  Haha!! Helwig Winery * 11555 Shenandoah Road, Plymouth CA 95669 * www.helwigwinery.com * 209.245.5200  (Please note:  This is a 21 and over facility.  The kiddos and critters have to stay home.)

The rest of August will be devoted to personal time with Mixmaster Mike and our faithful companion, Jack the Dog, as we head for higher ground and do a little backpacking and fishing.  After which, we hop in the MoHo and head north for the first ever shirlJAM Oregon Tour!  I'll be performing at North Forty Brewing Company in Roseburg, OR, on Friday Sept. 2, the Henry Estate Winery (also Roseburg) on Saturday, Sept. 3, and at the Valley View Winery and Vineyard in Jacksonville, OR, on Sunday Sept. 4.  Boy, talk about an action-packed Labor Day Weekend!!  Can't wait to take this here show on the road, make some new friends, and taste some great wine and beer.  "These are a few of my favorite things..."  Sing it with me, people!

On Friday September 16, from 6:00 till 9:00 pm, we'll be celebrating the end of summer (well, assuming this summer ever actually does end, right?) at one of my fave spots in the Lodi area, m2 Wines in Acampo.  I'll be performing a special evening shirlJAM concert.  You know I love any excuse to pull out the fun lighting  (well, Mixmaster Mike certainly does, anyway)!  Not too far away; come on down and join me for a wonderful time with some fantastic folks and truly delicious wines!  There will be a food truck on site so you can grab a bite to eat.  Family and pet friendly spot.  As owner and head winemaker Layne would say, "whatever you do, drink m2!".  Tickets $15 for wine club members, $20 general admission.

Drum roll, please: I'm so very excited to announce that I will be the featured performer for the 15th annual Making Strides Against Breast Cancer of Silicon Valley event in Santa Clara on October 22.  This event is sanctioned by the American Cancer Society and is a huge fundraising drive to benefit breast cancer awareness, research, care for cancer patients and their families, and so much more.  This year the venue will be the Great America Amusement Park in Santa Clara, how cool is that???  Make plans today to participate yourself!  There's a treasure trove of information on the ACS's website, please visit www.cancer.org/involved/volunteer/makingstrides.html to learn more.  I'm honored to be involved in this fantastic cause!!!!  THINK PINK and SAVE THE TATAS!!!
