Another great event that will challenge your outdoor skills is the Summit Challenge Trail Race on July 7th. The race is fun enough but then the event ends with a barbeque. What could be better? If you want to get your kids in on the outdoor fun, check out the Keystone Balance Bike Series on the 7th which is a race designed for kids ages 2 through 5. This event will also take place on the 21st, August 11th and September 1st.

If you like to throw back some bubbly brew while taking in bluegrass music then you don’t want to miss this year’s 17th Annual Bluegrass and Beer Festival. Sample beers from more than 30 different breweries and consume delicious home-style meals while being entertained by three different stages all playing bluegrass.

Anyone who wants to watch their budget but also enjoy this summer’s best Summit County events also has plenty to choose from. Every Friday during the summer you can take part in the Friday Afternoon Club. You can experience free gondola rides, free music and take part in food and drink specials. Also, be sure to check out the River Run Rocks free concert that takes place on August 24th.

The best part about all of these events is that summer time in the mountains is considered the off-season. You and your family can enjoy discounted rates while enjoying everything wonderful about Summit County.
