  • Good morning, this is your Bend Local Frequency for February 28, 2025.

    We're kicking off the day with some exciting news for music lovers. The Tower Theatre has announced an incredible lineup for their February concert series, including a harmonica blowout featuring legendary blues artists Curtis Salgado, Dennis Gruenling, Mark Hummel, and Spain's rising star Sweet Marta. If you're a fan of blues and R&B, this is one event you won't want to miss.

    In local business news, a pizza oven explosion at a Bend poker room near Pilot Butte sent one person to the hospital yesterday. Bend Fire responded to the incident, and we're hoping for a speedy recovery for the injured individual.

    For those looking to hit the slopes, Mt. Bachelor is boasting North America's deepest base this season, thanks to record-breaking snowfall in December and January. With five feet of snow falling in a single weekend, it's shaping up to be an epic year for winter sports enthusiasts.

    Speaking of winter activities, the annual Zwickelmania beer event is happening tomorrow, February 22nd. This popular celebration of craft beer offers tours, tastings, and prizes at local breweries. It's a great opportunity to chat with brewers and sample seasonal beers.

    Looking ahead to March, Winter PrideFest is just around the corner. Running from March 6th to 9th, this event celebrates inclusivity in the outdoors with a variety of activities and events. Be sure to grab your tickets early, as some popular events may sell out.

    For families, there's plenty to do this weekend. The East Bend Library is hosting a "Hygge with the Library" event on February 26th, offering board games, books, coloring, puzzles, and hot chocolate in a cozy atmosphere. It's a perfect multi-generational event for the whole family.

    Comedy fans can catch the Bend Comedy February Showcase tonight at Immersion Brewing, featuring headliners Todd Armstrong and Brandie Posey. The show starts at 8 PM and promises to be a night full of laughs.

    Lastly, if you're planning ahead, don't forget about the upcoming Salmon Run on April 19th. This Oregon tradition offers 5K, 10K, and half marathon distances along the beautiful Deschutes River, with a special Little Fry Run for kids 10 and under.

    This has been Bend Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
