Bubbles & Bites
Bubbles & Bites Festival is a free, culinary carnival at Tennessee Pass Nordic Center on Sat, August 23 from noon - 5 pm. We will be showcasing the best of the Arkansas River Valley and hidden gems from all over Colorado. We'll have about 25 vendors in the categories of baked goods, art workshops, music + live entertainment, locally grown mushrooms, mead, and craft beer. We'll also have no-cost aerial yoga, with 30-minute classes starting at 1:00 pm, 2:00 pm, and 3:00 pm. There will also be handmade custom tasting glasses by Hello Fern Pottery. At 6 pm, there will be a special dinner in the Cookhouse. Afterwards, there will be a free, open to the public guided tour of the stars by CMC Steamboat Physics Professor, Dr. Paul McCudden. We hope you'll stop by for the good times! There will be free camping in the meadow by the Cookhouse or down by the Nordic Center for the night.
