This is for the people coming out every year to support our musicians, our vendors and sponsors at our summer festival. We’ve had several concerts now with Dimitri’s Lounge. It is a beautiful facility. The drink prices here are very affordable. Dimitri’s is kind of a hidden gem here in Suisun. We’ve received great comments to people who’ve come here.”
