And for those with a sweet tooth, the cherry pit spitting contest and cherry baking challenge might be right up your alley. Held over the 4th of July weekend in downtown Paonia, this year’s 77th annual event runs from Monday to Tuesday, July 3rd to 4th, 2023. Details for the event are still coming out, so check Paonia Cherry Days website for more information.
