Rooster Call 8/10: Fire and Ice, Craftology Mixer, More

It's that special day of the week, affectionately referred to as "hump day," otherwise known as Wednesday. It's going to be another warm one in the area, with temperatures reaching 92 degrees, according to The National Weather Service.

Today, local craft and learning center, Craftology will be hosting a mixer in conjunction with the Fair Oaks Chamber of Commerce. The Orangevale Community Center will present a course on craft building with dry ice. And blues comes alive at the San Juan Club tonight.

That's not all that's happening in the area, either. For more events and ways to plan your day, check out the full list in the events calendar.
