It's pretty busy this weekend. Cassie from the newsroom here, coming to you a little later than usual today. This weekend is packed with events! There's truly no shortage of things to do on Saturday. Culture Fest is free and happening, guys! The community's first culture festivity was organized by the Hispanic Affairs Project and will take place at the Ute Indian Museum from 10-4 p.m. Because of limited parking, guests are encouraged to park at the southern end of the Target parking lot where a free shuttle service will transport you to the museum. Dinner on Main is 6-8 p.m., so get your tickets while you can. Sharing Ministries and Habitat for Humanity of the San Juans are hosting the annual dinner, catered this year by Jimmer's BBQ. Proceeds will equally benefit the event's hosts and all alcohol proceeds benefit the Boys & Girls Club. Tickets are $20 each but all kiddos under 5 eat free. Oktoberfest is a big one for sure. The 17th annual beer celebration is happening from 1-5 p.m. at the Rotary Amphitheater. Expect music by Con Brio and AJ Fullerton, as well as a stein hoisting competition, costume contest, photo booth and lots of food. Tickets are $35 online and $45 at the gate. Delta Pride 2022 will be Delta's first official pride event. The celebration will take place from 2-7 p.m. at Cleland Park, with music and food! The event is hosted by Delta Area Chamber of Commerce and is open to community and family. Did I miss anything? Feel free to drop a note!
