A California Online Magazine with Local Focus and Global Appeal
On May 29, 2010 Kings River Life Magazine was born and it’s been full steam ahead ever since. We’ve gone from a strictly local focus to nationwide, with readers and writers from all over the country, and even one from Australia. So as we set off to see what adventures await us in our third year, as we continue to grow and evolve, we are sharing this birthday with you with two contests!

Before you go see The Hobbit movie coming out later this year, why not check out the play now on stage at the College of The Sequoias in Visalia. I went this weekend with friends and it was a lot of fun. It’s the kind of show you can take the family to for a fun night out, while helping to support the school’s theatre program at the same time.

This past weekend Godspell opened at the Reedley Opera House presented by the Reedley River City Theatre Co. and I had the privilege of actually seeing it twice! This may very well be the best show I’ve ever seen there, and it’s one you won’t want to miss. For a little background, music and lyrics for this show were written by Stephen Schwartz who wrote Wicked.
