Tunnel After-Party Celebration Rocks On
A tunnel opening celebration at Surf Spot featured music by the West Bay Rhythm Band.
After the ribbon cutting ceremony of the Devil's Slide tunnels Monday, an after-party was sponsored by both The Surf Spot and Recology of the Coast in celebration of "the tunnel that joins Pacifica with the rest of the world," read an invitation from the Pacifica Chamber of Commerce.
Music was by the West Bay Rhythm Band, a funk-soul big horn band who played music from Tower of Power, Malo, Chicago and War. The Surf Spot served up appetizers at fixed locations, including crab cakes and "a cheese spread to die for," said president of the Pacifica Chamber of Commerce Cheryl Yoes. The event took place both inside and outside in the back area with a warm fire pit, heaters and tables and seating throughout the area.
