Another option for a fun family outing this weekend is Dozer Day 2016, which will be held at the Clark County Fairgrounds on Sat and Sun May 21-22, from 11am to 4pm. If you like the sound of heavy machinery, pipe and tire crawls, and digging for treasures, then this is the event for you! There will also be music, food, giveaways, and (according to the website) ‘Much More!’
All of the rides are free at Dozer Day, with the exception of a couple that are donation based. Admission is $8 for kids and seniors 60+ and $10 for adults if purchased in advance (tickets are $3 more if bought at the event). Kids under two are free either way. Advanced tickets can be purchased at participating Chuck’s Produce and IQ Credit Union locations, or online at dozerday.org.
For more information about Dozer Day 2016, you can call (503) 407-0159 or visit the city of Vancouver website. For driving directions see the map below.
Whatever you decide to do this weekend, we hope you stay safe and have fun!
