• Play & Dinner Theater
• Pioneer Home Tours
• Chocolate Fest / Silent Auction
• Heritage Fair / Pioneer Village
• Tractor Parade / Quilt Races / Tractor Pull

The festival honors area pioneers who spread quilts over snow so they could walk without breaking through the surface, so they could cross the mountains to bring food to their starving families.

The festival celebrates the spirit, ingenuity and craftsmanship of these hardy people.
