There will also be a wine tasting fundraiser sponsored by the El Dorado Dog Owners Guild.

The Cameron Park Concert Series continues with a performance by the Capitol Pops Concert Band on May 18 from 6-9 p.m. at the Cameron Park Community Center Gymnasium. The Capitol Pops symphony has been performing and providing high-quality music for thousands of concertgoers throughout northern California since 1977. Based in Citrus Heights, the band has been under the leadership of Jerry Lopes since its inception. Seventy-one musicians represent a cross section of the area, ranging in age from high school students to 99 year olds. Doors open at 6 p.m. and music starts at 7 p.m.; food and beverages will be available. Advance tickets (available at the Cameron Park CSD office, Fire Station 89, Walgreens, Bel Air and the Shingle Springs/Cameron Park Chamber of Commerce and online at showclix.com) are $10, $18 for two, or $12 at the door.

To officially kick off summer, head to the Cameron Park Community Center on May 25 for the Welcome to Summer event.
