SUMMARY:Ione Homecoming
DESCRIPTION:Ione’s 149th Annual Homecoming returns to Howard Park on Friday and Saturday\, May 9 and 10\, continuing a tradition that has brought friends\, families\, and alumni together since 1876. Presented by the Ione Picnic Association\, the weekend showcases local talent\, hometown pageantry\, and more small‑town fun than one day can hold. \n\n\n\nFriday night warms up with the carnival midway\, the Horseshoe Pits\, and live music that starts with Green Broke at 6 PM and into FreezeOut at 9:30 PM. Saturday launches early with a pancake breakfast at Tim’s Pizza from 7:30 to 10:30 AM; the Bedbug Challenge 5 K Color Run at 8 AM; and the Homecoming Parade marches down Main Street at 9 AM. At Howard Park\, the action kicks off with the Andy Bonham Memorial Team Roping in the Ed Hughes Memorial Arena at 11 AM; Salsa and Chili Cook‑Off at 12:30 PM; the Frog Jump and Route 88’s beer‑garden set at 1 PM; a candy drop and Rib Cook‑Off at 3:30 PM; lawn‑mower races at 4 PM; The Last Call Band on the Picnic Hill stage at 5 PM; the Ione High School Alumni Dinner at 5:30 PM; Triple Threat onstage at 8 PM; and the Homecoming Rodeo under arena lights that same evening. Between events\, visitors can browse vendors\, cheer soap‑box derby runs\, test their aim in the cornhole tournament\, or keep youngsters busy at the Kids’ Corner and petting zoo. \n\n\n\nThe 2025 celebration runs Friday evening from 6:00 PM until the carnival lights fade and Saturday from 7:30 AM breakfast to the last encore around 10:00 PM. Ione Homecoming takes place at Charles Howard Park at 600 S. Church Street\, Ione\, CA 95640; carnival pre‑sale wristbands are $40 cash only (text Kristin at 209‑327‑6602)\, and rodeo entries go through Christine Gold at 209‑256‑4111.

SUMMARY:Bus Stop
DESCRIPTION:Running from April 11 through May 17\, Volcano Theatre Company presents Bus Stop\, William Inge’s classic slice‑of‑life drama set in a rural Kansas diner during a blizzard. Stranded bus passengers\, an earnest cowboy smitten with a wary nightclub singer\, a restless professor\, a no‑nonsense sheriff\, and others\, share the long night\, revealing hopes\, heartbreaks\, and unexpected connections that are by turns humorous and tender. First staged on Broadway in 1955\, the play’s intimate portraits of ordinary people still resonate today. \n\n\n\nStaged in the company’s intimate Cobblestone Theatre\, this production surrounds the audience with the warmth of the diner itself\, giving every patron a front‑row feeling only a few feet from the action. \n\n\n\nPerformances are Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 PM and Sundays at 2:00 PM. Tickets are $24 for general admission and $22 for seniors. The Cobblestone Theatre is located at 16121 Main Street\, Volcano\, CA 95689. For tickets and additional details\, visit volcanotheatre.net/bus‑stop or call the box office. This production is proudly sponsored by Sterling Auto Repair.
