 2010 Bend WinterFest | Feb 12 - 14, 2010 While it seems a little like Spring all over Bend, we’re still in the heart of Winter. To get yourself back in the Wintery swing of things, gather the crew together and head over to one of Bend’s finest events, the 2010 Bend WinterFest.
This year’s event will be, once again, hosted at the Shops at the Old Mill, February 12-14th. The WF is an annual three-day festival of snow sports, demonstrations, music, wine, and food. I remember the days the event was hosted downtown, which was my personal favorite. I like the whole old-school vibe that downtown exudes. Plus, it was a nice little boost for the locally-owned downtown businesses, but I get the reason for the switch. (more…)
