The Bash will take place from 4-8 p.m. and includes a Winter Arts Market, Community Bike Ride, Fat Bike Demos, Yeti Yoga, Live Entertainment, S’mores, Beer, Yeti Sightings, and costumed fun for all ages.
“Yetis have been spotted checking into the Hampton Inn & Suites, ordering beer at Roosters Brewing Co., riding fat bikes, doing yoga on the street, and admiring the new Joe McQueen mural by Nurture the Creative Mind” said Sydnie Furton, marketing and PR manager at Visit Ogden. “You never know what will spark their interest, but they seem to love it here in Ogden!”
The free event will begin at 4:00 p.m. with the opening of the Winter Arts Market. Off-beat artists and vendors will be hosting family-friendly interactive booths and exhibits. DJ Battleship will keep the vibes groovy, there will be live entertainment and yeti sightings throughout downtown Ogden.
