Whittle the Wood Rendezvous is back with a vengeance this summer after Craig missed out on the hallmark event last year due to COVID-19.
This year’s event, which takes place next week, includes a blowout Thursday schedule, with the Quick Carve taking place that day, June 24, instead of the traditional Saturday slot.
“(We’re trying to) spread the event out for families to come and enjoy,” wrote Craig Parks and Recreation department director Ryan Dennison in an email. “Like adding the Root Beer Floats and the Movie in the Park.”
The full schedule for Thursday, which features free admission all day, includes the following:

After years of investments into upgrading Breeze Park in Craig, the city received recognition from the Colorado Lottery April 21, earning one of 11 Starburst Awards for the fiscal year of 2021.
The Colorado Lottery’s Starburst Awards recognize excellence in the use of Lottery funds for community and conservation projects, according to a press release from the lottery.
In 2015, the city of Craig officially broke ground on the Breeze Park Phase I project, which included significant improvements to the park’s amenities and accessibility.
