Muffins with Bunny

It’s never too early to plan for the Easter season. The Livermore Area Recreation and Park District this week announced the return of its Muffins with Bunny event at the Robert Livermore Community Center.

Registration is now open for both sessions on the morning of March 23. Designed for the whole family, the event features springtime activities, muffins, snacks, games, crafts and the opportunity to meet the LARPD Bunny, according to the district.

“Muffins with Bunny captures the essence of spring in a fun setting, providing families with a memorable experience and a chance to create lasting memories together,” LARPD recreation supervisor Joseph Benjamin said in a statement.

People who want to participate are encouraged to register early as space is limited. For more information, go to www.larpd.org or call 925-373-5700.

Lemaires in concert

Trinity Lutheran Church on Hopyard Road in downtown Pleasanton is welcoming musicians Mark and Cindy Lemaire this Sunday evening (Feb. 4) as part of the Trinity Concert Series.

The couple are known to be “a pleasure to listen to and fun to just be with,” church officials said. Mark Lemaire is a vocalist, composer and guitarist known for his unique playing that includes masterful fingerpicking, slap-and-tap harmonics and “picchiettando” style.

“In addition to Mark’s solo guitar pieces, the duo harmonies with Cindy Lemaire are so perfectly matched that they seem like one voice,” church reps said. “They sing of the vicissitudes of love and the strange surprise of middle age creeping up on us. This is music for adults, yet with clarity and incisiveness appealing to the part of us that is ageless.”
