Say what? It's the end of summer already? Didn't summer just finally get here, like, a week ago?

Ah, the sad reality of Washington summers that we're already thinking of their end in early August.

The very first Thurston County Summer's End Music and Comedy Festival (T.C.S.E.) is on this Saturday and Sunday (August 11 and 12) at Deschutes River Ranch at 9725 Rich Road SE in Olympia. The purpose of this event is twofold-one, the festival is filled with live music so you can rock your ass off; two, proceeds help raise funds for the Thurston County High School's music programs, so you can rock your ass off for a good cause.

This festival features lots of live music-rock, hip hop, reggae, and beyond-as well as DJs and comedians. Most of the performers are from the Northwest.

As with any proper festival, T.C.S.E. has a lineup of vendor booths and food stalls. More importantly, there is a beer garden so make sure to have your ID handy. The Deschutes River Ranch itself is a superbly unique 25-acre venue with 30 riverside campsites and 5 acres of campground beyond that. Camping costs range from $25 to $75. Reserve a space in advance.

Festival tickets are $20 for one day, or $30 for both days. Get your tickets or reserve campsites by calling 360-918-4420.
