Things to do in Utah Valley this weekend.

RRAAAAAAIIIIINNNNNNNNN. Bring it down, clouds. Too much of the state has burned itself up and we need the moisture!

In completely unrelated news, here's a roundup of things you could be doing down here in happy valley.

What: Provo Farmer's Market
When: Saturday, July 7th, from 9am to 2pm (and every Saturday through October 27th)
Where: Pioneer Park in Provo - at the southwest corner of 500 West and Center Street.
Why: I love the farmer's market. That is all.
How much: Free!

What: Pleasant Grove's Promenade
When: Thursday, July 5th, from 5pm to 9pm
Where: Historic Downtown Park in Pleasant Grove - 200 South Main Street
Why: It's got so many things going for it - fresh produce, live entertainment, unique gifts, homemade food... and what else do you have going on tonight?
How much: free unless you buy something. der.

What: Camp Floyd - Johnston's Army Adventure Camp
When: Friday at 5:30 through Saturday
Where: Camp Floyd/Stagecoach Inn State Park and Museum - 18035 West 1540 North, Fairfield
Why: If you've got a scout, this is an awesome thing to do. They get to travel back in time, act like a soldier, learn how soldiers lived, sleep like soldiers... this is something I wish I could have done as a child. They also get merit badges for it.
How much: $15 per Boy Scout, $12 per adult

What: The Roller Derby!
When: Saturday, July 7th, from 11am to 5:30pm
Where: The old Food For Less Building - 784 E. Chapel Drive, Spanish Fork
Why: It's a freaking roller derby! I have always wanted to be a derby girl, for real. What better to do than watch a bunch of girls beat the shit out of each other, on skates?
How much: $5 donation

Most importantly, have fun and don't start any fires. Enjoy the amazing nature we've got before it all gets covered in snow again, probably starting in August since we enjoyed such a lovely, dry winter this year.
