This post is a bit of a tease as the festival is currently in full swing and if you are just now reading this, you will likely miss the festivities... but put it on your calendar for next year!
What could be better? Small town Americana meets... Mars!
McMenamins originally hosted the first UFO Festival 8 years ago based on a UFO siting in 1950. Thirty (now thirty-eight) years later, whether hoax or reality lies behind this tale, it has spurred on a new tradition in this small town.
Events include documentaries, guest speakers, a 'fun run', a parade, alien dog costume contest and an alien party costume ball. I have yet to spend the weekend enjoying all the festivities, but my friend mentioned that the McMenamins lodging package is great.
