A blend of music, food, hiking, and blueberry picking marked the return of the blueberry festival at Shames Mountain on Aug. 12. The event, organized by the Shames Mountain Ski and Snowboard Club, commemorated the club’s 50th anniversary during the 2023 Riverboat Days festival.
Shames Mountain Ski and Snowboard Club director Chance Healey said the festival was an annual tradition at Shames Mountain approximately 20 years ago, featuring events such as small concerts.
