Summer Solstice & Truckee Thursday

June 21, 2018 by kvoosen Leave a Comment

Happy Summer Solstice ?

Can you believe it?! – It’s officially SUMMER – and things are just starting to heat up!  Today marks this year’s Summer Solstice, the longest day and shortest night of the year in the Northern Hemisphere.  This is a great time to embrace the daylight and honor the sun’s energy while enjoying all the natural wonders around us.  Pack a picnic with your hiking gear and head out (overnight camping and gathering around a bonfire after sunset doesn’t seem like a bad idea either)!  We’re sure you’ll find plenty of ways to cool off at the surrounding lakes, rivers and waterfalls – or perhaps this evening at your favorite, local watering hole for a summer inspired cocktail in Downtown Truckee to check out this week’s Truckee Thursday!

Here are some more ways you can celebrate the Summer Solstice 

Thursday nights in Downtown Truckee

Last week kicked off the first Truckee Thursday of the season – woohoo!  Celebrating the 11th year of transforming Historic Downtown Truckee into an exciting street fair for eleven Thursdays during the summer.  Truckee Thursday is a special experience for people of all ages – residents, visitors and participants alike.  Featuring live music, a food court, artisan vendors, merchant & community displays, children’s activities, beer garden, and our personal favorite – a farmers market! Visit event website for more information

Getting there

The whole strip of downtown will be closed off to all traffic – as most locals already know.  Thankfully, the town of Truckee will be providing a free shuttle service from June 8th – August 17th, pick up is scheduled for every 15 minutes from Trout Creek Recreation Center to Beacon Lot.  There will be routes from most of the major neighborhoods surrounding Truckee: Prosser, Glenshire, Sierra Meadows, Donner Lake, Tahoe Donner, Squaw Valley, Northstar.  You can find the schedule and routes here.

This year’s music lineup:

  • June 14, 2018: Mighty Mike Shermer
  • June 21, 2018: Hellbound Glory
  • June 28, 2018: The Rad Trads
  • July 5, 2018: Jake Nielsen’s Triple Threat
  • July 12, 2018: Franks and Deans
  • July 19, 2018: The Sextones
  • July 26, 2018: The Pacific Roots
  • August 2, 2018: Monkey Ska
  • August 9, 2018: The Lique
  • August 16, 2018: Sam Ravenna
  • August 23, 2018: Southern Cut

See you there with a smile

There is so much fun to be had today for Summer Solstice and tonight at the 2nd Truckee Thursday event!  We highly recommend experiencing Truckee Thursdays at least once this summer and what better day than this years Summer Solstice?! Without a doubt this feel good event is calling your name – our guess is that you’ll love it so much, you’ll find yourself back there every Thursday!
