  • Good morning, this is your Bend Local Frequency for Friday, February 21st, 2025. We're kicking off the day with some exciting events and updates from around our beautiful city.

    First off, let's talk about the fun stuff. If you're looking for something to do this weekend, you're in luck. Zwickelmania is happening on Saturday, February 22nd, from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm. This annual celebration of craft beer in Oregon features over 50 breweries offering beer samples directly from the zwickel, beer releases, tours, educational talks, food and beer pairings, and meet-the-brewer opportunities. It's a must-visit for any beer enthusiast.

    In other news, Ponderosa Players is bringing the cult hit musical "Ride the Cyclone" (High School Edition) to Central Oregon. This unique musical gained a dedicated following during the COVID-19 pandemic and is sure to entertain audiences of all ages.

    If you're looking for something a bit more adventurous, Wanderlust Tours has you covered. Their snowshoe tours in the Cascade Mountains west of Bend offer a thrilling way to explore the winter landscape. And if you're planning ahead, mark your calendars for their Forage to Table: Guided Foraging & 4-Course Dinner event on May 17th.

    But it's not all fun and games. In local news, a garage fire threatened an east Bend home on Wednesday evening. Bend Fire & Rescue responded quickly to contain the blaze, and thankfully, no one was injured.

    On a more serious note, a Bend family is facing 28 child abuse charges, including attempted murder. This disturbing case highlights the importance of community vigilance and support for our most vulnerable members.

    On a lighter note, if you're looking for a unique Valentine's Day gift, AD Glass & Design's Glass Heart Scavenger Hunt Giveaway might be just the thing. They've been hiding special tags around Bend during the first two weeks of February, and finding one could score you a free limited edition glass heart.

    In cultural news, Mountainfilm on Tour – Bend is coming up, featuring incredible documentary films on adventure, climate change, culture, and resilience from around the world. This annual fundraiser for The Environmental Center is a must-attend for anyone interested in thought-provoking cinema.
