As far as stretching your dollar for entertainment, I know of no better value than a day of family activities for free. On June 7th, Imperial River Company will be hosting their annual Opening Day on the Deschutes River Party. We'll provide free professionally guided white water rafting trips, live music, chainsaw ice sculpture demonstrations, clay molding demonstrations with clay for the kids to use, a Shelby car show, river parades, a kids carnival, live music, and much much more. The best thing is, it's all free!!!! If you have any questions regarding this event, email me at topher@deschutesriver.com or visit our website at www.deschutesriver.com.
