Music Cruise
May 25 @ 6:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Gunnison rings in summer on Wednesday, May 25, with a Music Cruise! Thanks to Gunnison Valley Health, the sponsor, in partnership with the Resiliency Project, the band will be especially exciting. A group of Cora men from Gunnison have founded Fuerza Cora Brasil Musical, and they have a wonderful sound! The cruise starts at 6:30 at Jorgensen and ends at 8:00ish in IOOF Park. You can find the cruise route on the Gunnison Parks & Rec Facebook page. We'll stop and play for a few minutes in locations where a number of people are waiting for us!
Gunnison Valley is also host to several beloved annual events. A classic winter event is The Alley Loop, a Nordic ski race that doubles as a costume contest. In fall, Mt. Crested Butte hosts the famous Chili and Beer Festival. Every summer in Gunnison, a crowd gathers to watch America’s fourth-oldest rodeo, Cattlemen’s Days. There are also festivals in Crested Butte that celebrate local art, music, wildflowers, and more. Attending an annual event is a good way to connect with the culture of the Gunnison Valley. You might even create a new tradition for you and your family and friends!
