Zipping up a Celebration for Duarte 9.10.10
What’s in a name? What’s in a zip code? Beverly Hills’ famed zip code 90210 may
have a certain cachet that lends itself to the glitzy, star-studded celebration
it had on 9.02.10. But Duarte 91010 believes that it too has a lot to be proud
of as a city and with its coinciding date 9.10.10 just around the corner,
reason to celebrate, with cake.
The City of Duarte is inviting the community to enjoy free cake and punch on
Friday, 9.10.10, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Duarte Senior Center, 1610
Huntington Dr., and from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the Duarte Teen Center, 1400 Buena
