FESTIVAL: You can't beat Sandpoint

A rewarding part of community living is both searching for and discovering the hidden treasures that exist in any area.

Many activities and opportunities seem to swirl silently in the backwaters and delight only the curious who focus the effort to seek them out. Some athletic and adrenaline endeavors require skill sets and pain tolerance that shrink the circle.

Others, though, like the Festival at Sandpoint, welcome all who seek the deepest level of enjoyment in music, food, people, and fun.

This Festival has evolved into a trusted venue which assures that any act fortunate enough to be booked will thrill the audience at many levels.

The sleepers this year are Lake Street Dive and the double act magic of Devil Makes Three and Trampled by Turtles.

These groups have played the biggest stages all over the country. Any of the acts are worth the focused effort to make it happen. Discover the magic in your backyard these next two weeks in Sandpoint.
