Mark your calendars now because summer will be here before you know it!  The 16th Annual Brews, Blues and BBQs lies just around the corner on Saturday, June 27, 2009.  The traditional rollicking opening of the summer season in Stevenson, this blast draws fans from across the Northwest to Teo Park right on the Columbia River.  With views of the water, the mountains rising abruptly across the river, the setting becomes as much a part of the day as the music, the beer and the food.
