Take a moment, close your eyes and imagine the snow has melted, the grass is green, and the warmth of the sun is all around. Are we all there? Okay, keep that in mind and jump to June 12th-14th for the 2020 Shoshoni Days. This year’s weekend-long event is bigger than before with several new events and activities planned for all ages.
Kicking-off the weekend is the co-ed basketball tournament beginning Friday, June 12th from 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm. Saturday the 13th is jam-packed with a pancake breakfast, ATV poker run, bake sale, basketball, waterblast, and so much more. The weekend is planned to wrap-up with a “turkey” shoot at the gun range on Sunday afternoon.
