Jake the Alligator Man's Birthday Party & Car Show

We embrace “the Jake” year-round here at beachdog.com.  He’s a Long Beach icon, a side-show freak, a gentleman with varied and distinct interests.  Ya gotta love Jake the Alligator Man!

Our very own Wendy is the Chairperson for Jake’s annual birthday party, which is held the first Saturday in August, right in front of his home downtown, Marsh’s Free Museum.  She’s brought a real fun and funky vibe to the bash, turning the burgeoning children’s cake and ice cream party into a full day of fun and frivolity for all ages.  Follow Jake on MySpace, FaceBook (and his birthday party page), at Marsh’s Free Museum and on our own funbeach.com!

posters

 

Wendy is Jack Russell of All Trades here at beachdog.com, and has been training to translate her artistic ability into commercial graphic art.  The posters shown here are the first she’s done from concept through pre-press.  She did the makeup, dressing and staging of the model in the photos, arranged several styles of photo shoot, and designed the two sizes of poster using professional tools.  We think she’s done an amazing job, don’t you?

Be sure to check out Jake’s pages on MySpace, FaceBook (and his birthday party page), and funbeach.com for more of the story, especially the photos.  Well done, Wendy!

    Dear Beachdog — What a fascinating group you are and how wonderful that you found each other to participate in this adventurous quest. We personally know what a talented woman Wendy Murry continues to be —- and realize that each one of you has to be very special indeed!

    Dear proud of me Wendy! We are in awe and really proud of you also. I always knew that you were accomplished —- but look at all the things that you have learned to do. Wow! Its so great that you are doing what you love to do, and that your job is the greatest classroom of all! Sissy
