9th annual R Park Solstice Celebration

JACKSON HOLE, Wyo. — The Jackson Hole Land Trust (JHLT) will host the R Park Solstice Celebration on Friday, June 24 from 4-7pm.

Now in its ninth year, this annual party will kick off a summer of fun at this beloved nonprofit park. Attendees can enjoy free Streetfood taco, $3 Highpoint ciders, live music from Pat Chadwick, free kayak and SUP rentals from Rendezvous River Sports, and other family-friendly activities from Voices JH, Teton Raptor Center, and JH Public Art.

 “The R Park Solstice Celebration is a community favorite for a reason,” says Liz Long, the JHLT’s vice president. “We love to see the whole community turn out and ride the energy of the solstice into the new season; there’s just this fun buzz around being out at R Park on a beautiful early summer afternoon surrounded by friends.”

Community members are invited to grab a cider and a taco and listen to music or head out toward Mama Mimi, R Park’s resident troll, for a kid’s activity with JH Public Art. Voices JH will be out with a face painting booth set up, and attendees can get up close to birds of prey at the Teton Raptor Center table.

Those wanting to get out on the water can borrow a kayak or a standup paddle board from Rendezvous River Sports, or win their own standup paddle board by joining the JHLT’s new WYLD membership.
