Pearl St. Market

Posted on: October 31st, 2015 by thcAdmin No Comments

The Pearl St. Market is a local favorite. Filling the void for a downtown market and offering deli, meat & fish, veggies, desserts, bakery items, prepared foods and more. On the corner of Pearl and Cache St., a block South of the Town Square (toward the Snow King ski area).

pearl st. market jackson hole, wy

Pearl St. Market’s philosophy is a simple one: offer the highest-quality, freshest, and most cutting-edge products that we can find in every category. This way you can rest assured knowing that as you bite into that new cheese from a small Italian mountain farm or serve up a Jackson Hole raised Mead Ranch Ribeye

The wide array of high quality meat,  fish and baked goods are what draw me there. The sandwiches are delicious, my favorite is the Hot Pastrami.

Jackson Hole Fireman’s Ball 2015

Posted on: October 29th, 2015 by thcAdmin No Comments

November 14th 2015

Head to the Heritage Arena on the night of November 14th 2015 for a rowdy good time. Jackson Hole’s Fireman’s Ball is celebrating it’s 75th year!!! Don’t miss this one. Their motto “come to our party and we’ll come to your fire” should be reason enough. The Ball is the Association’s primary means of generating revenue for measures not provided by County funding. For the past 75 years, the Firefighters Association has been hosting the Fireman’s Ball, making it one of the oldest traditions in our valley. We will have local food vendors, live and silent auctions, gun raffles and of course, ice cold beer and cocktails served by Jackson’s bravest.

luther dickinson north mississippi allstars

This year’s line-up will feature the North Mississippi Allstars with Anders Osborne, Sam Bush Band, Chancey Williams & the Younger Brothers Band.

***This year’s silent and live auctions will wrap up early in the evening, if you are keen to bid on this year’s awesome items, please arrive at 6:00pm***

JACKSON FIREFIGHTERS ASSOCIATION: The Association represents local firefighter/EMTs in the town of Jackson. Our firefighters respond to fire and medical emergencies from Station 1, in downtown Jackson and Station 7, in Adams Canyon.

The Jackson Firefighters Association provides funding for firefighter training courses and continuing education, life saving equipment aboard our fire apparatus as well as emergency funds for the families of local fallen or injured firefighters. Last year, the Association purchased a new cardiac monitor for Medic 10, our downtown and busiest ambulance. This new monitor allows us to transmit EKG rhythms to the hospital to better and more rapidly diagnose heart attacks in the field. The Association also helped to purchase a new fire engine for Station 7, which was put into service last summer and protects the Melody Ranch and Rafter J area. Simply put, the Association is there for local firefighters just like those men and women are there for the Jackson community.

Come out and support these brave men & women!

Every clear Friday night, Wyoming Stargazing is hosting free public stargazing events at Rendevous Park. During the stargazing events they will be using their giant Dobsonian Telescope with a 20″ primary mirror to look at planets, stars, nebulae, galaxies, and more! They will also bring several iPads with the Star Walk application installed on them so you can explore the heavens while others are looking through the telescopes.

The telescopes are named after the late amateur astronomer John Dobson who designed the telescope mount used by those telescopes. John was also instrumental in popularizing amateur astronomy and amateur telescope building across the county. The programs will take place at roughly 9:00pm for the rest of the season. Feel free to show up for whatever portion of the program works for you.

These free public stargazing events have been made possible by a generous grant from the Wyoming NASA Space Grant Consortium, NASA Grant #NNX10AO95H.

SHIFT Festival 2015

Posted on: October 6th, 2015 by thcAdmin No Comments

October 7-10, 2015

Held each October in the midst of the largest intact ecosystem in the Lower 48, SHIFT is an annual festival that celebrates the intersection of conservation with Nature, Culture and Adventure. The 2014 SHIFT Festival, which runs from October 7-10, includes speakers such as Yvonne Chouinard, Mark Bittman, Charlie Hamilton James, Angel Collinson, David Quammen, Lucas Debari as well as multiple programmatic pathways.

shift festival jackson hole

America’s first sustainable food festival activates the renowned bars, restaurants and foodists of Jackson Hole as we celebrate the interface of food, sustainability, health and place, connect people to the sources of their food, and strengthen our local food system.

The objective is to advance on-the-ground solutions that leverage outdoor recreation for conservation gains, and to provide a unified framework for these natural allies that will allow them to influence conservation and outdoor recreation policies at both local and international levels, thereby increasing success in the protection of our public lands and waters.

Conservation lies at the core of Jackson Hole’s environment, economy and character. Over the past 140 years, the region has been the epicenter of some of North America’s seminal conservation efforts, including the formation of Yellowstone, the world’s first national park, the drafting of the Wilderness Act, and the expansion of Grand Teton National Park to its current boundaries.

Throughout North America, some of our most beautiful and well-known communities—places like Bar Harbor, Moab, Sayulita and Hanalei—enjoy a similar relationship between economy, character and natural capital. We call such communities GEMS: Gateways to Environments of Major Significance. Each of these GEMS shares a fundamental reality: over the long term, they can be no healthier than the environments in which they reside.

These GEMS share another trait: they attract both millions of visitors each year and influential part-time residents. When they serve as models of sustainability, they have a unique opportunity to influence the behavior of their guests. By fostering sustainability in North American GEMS, SHIFT seeks to promote them as beacons of possibility—and, by extension, to affect the world they influence.

Located on Snow King Ave., the tent hosts talent shows etc. throughout the day, which provides some entertainment while dining. You will find a large grassy area with some picnic tables located near the “Big Top” events tent.

My favorite is the philly cheese steaks or cheeseburgers at the Rocky Mountain Ministries food booth.

A collection of rides and games can be found around the fair’s “midway” that are sure to thrill children and adults.

Figure 8 Races seem to be a big hit with locals and visitors. In years past the Demolition Derby was the Sunday night featured event. Soon after the introduction of of the Figure 8’s, it replaced the Derby.

This event combines the smash and crash of a derby with a little finese. Cars race around a figure 8 track where “rubbin’s racin’!” A fireworks display concludes the fair on Sunday evening. Come on out and enjoy our fair!

Duckie Tours

Posted on: July 15th, 2015 by thcAdmin No Comments

Rubber Duckies, are inflatable kayaks designed for aquatic exploration. This a unique and exciting way of river running is safe and fun for the whole family. Inflatable Kayaking is far more thrilling than traditional white-water rafting and have no problem handling turbulent water.

duckie

These boats are extremely maneuverable and quite resilient. One of the most exciting ways to ride the river. The boat rides low in the water making smaller waves during the late summer much more fun. No previous river experience is necessary. Experienced instructors will familiarize you with equipment. After providing a brief river safety course and paddling instruction your adventure begins. You will find these watercraft amazingly simple to control. The section of the Snake River that is run, provides class III rapids. All equipment and transportation is included.

Myself and members of my family have enjoyed taking the Duckies down the Snake. Guided trips are offered by Rendevous River Sports.
