Sun Valley

Weekend Preview 05.01.08

Summer in the Valley
It may be slack, but Sun Valley is still happening. This weekend, celebrate Mexican heritage, help clean the hiking trails for summer and drink to Grumpy’s 30th anniversary.

Thursday

Though the weather has been anything but springy, spring is technically here. Start your morning with a wildflower walk at the Sawtooth Botanical Garden from 9:30am-2:30pm. Then do some good community service and join the first annual Community Canine Clean Sweep. As the snow melts, the dog poop appears and the community wants to clean up the mess before it harms our rivers and our health. For more info, click here.

Friday

This Friday, May 2nd is Arbor Day in the City of Ketchum. Join the town at Atkinson Park for a tree planting in honor of the late Christina Potters. That night, stop by Papa Hemi’s Hideaway for a beer, some yummy pub grub and live music by Hat Trick.

Saturday

It’s a busy Saturday for Sun Valley. Take the whole family to the Sun Valley Figure Skating Club Ice Rink Musical: School Daze! Shows are at 1pm and 5pm at the Sun Valley Ice Rink. For tickets visit Chapter One or Tater Tots. Or, take the kids to Leland Faulkner’s Storytelling, Magic and Shadow Puppets show at the Liberty Theatre at 4pm. You can also head to Hailey for a Cinco de Mayo Celebration at St. Charles Church complete with margaritas, Mexican cuisine and a raffle.

Sunday

Enjoy a leisurely brunch at the Lodge Dining Room. Feast on fresh fruit, crepes and made-to-order omlets. You’ll also find Leana Leach tickling the piano from 9am-2pm. For the more casual crew, we recommend stopping by Grumpy’s for its 30th Anniversary Party. There will be special t-shirts, live music by the Damphools, lifetime achievement awards and, of course, lots of beer.
