  This tyson new exciting site strives to promote large and small business in the Livermore Valley area. A Little History -- Livermore, California was established in 1869 by William Mendenhall who laid the town next to the railroad. It was named for Robert Livermore, an English sailor who settled in the area in 1835. Due to the excellent climate several wineries started operations. One of California's oldest wine regions, the Livermore Valley played a pivotal role in shaping California's wine industry. Robert Livermore planted the first commercial vines in the 1840s. Pioneer winemakers C. H. Wente, James Concannon, and Charles Wetmore recognized the area's winegrowing potential and founded their wineries in the early 1880s. International recognition followed when Livermore Valley captured America's first international gold medal for wine in 1889 at the Paris Exposition, putting California on the world wine map.
Downtown Face-Lift In the Fall of 2006 the City of Livermore gave the downtown area a face lift. The Main Street(First Street) was reduced from a 4 line street to a 2 line street with new parking spots on the main street (which have no meters). Several new business have started, which include a new movie theater, and several new clothing beatique, such as www.orghipchick.com, which sell the lasted designers fashions (Ella Moss, Stitchs, True Religion...)

92st Annual Livermore Professional Rodeo
It is believed that rodeo was born in 1864 when two groups of cowboys from neighboring ranches met in Deer Trail, Colo., to settle an argument over who was the best at performing everyday ranching tasks. That gathering is considered to be the first rodeo and it started the evolution of the true American sport. Through these daily chores, the sport of rodeo evolved. It can be said that rodeo is the only sport derived from an industry, and probably the only one that ever will. Today's professional rodeo cowboy is a bit different from his 1800s predecessor, but the ideals and showmanship of long ago are still valued by today's competitors. Dates to Remember 6/12 Rodeo Family Night - Local Team Roping & Wild Cow Milking - Gates open at 5:00 and events start at 6:00 p.m. (Free admission - Soda & a hot dog for only $1) 6/14-6/15 90th Annual Rodeo - Gates open at 10:00 a.m. and Grand Entry starts at 2:00 p.m.
