The day winds up with games, water balloons, watermelon eating contests, and food and craft exhibits. Fireworks are banned in Sunriver, so plan your July 4th holiday there sans noisy explosives.

For those more in tune with the local arts, music, and food scene, the annual Sunriver Music Festival at Great Hall offers classical music hosted by a nonprofit organization to benefit local youth educational programs. Indie-lovers can hone in on the Bend Film festival, an event hosted by a company that bills itself as a "celebration of independent cinema". The Bend Brewfest at the Les Schwab Amphitheater is a free event in August that offers over 60 beers from over 30 brewers, with music and entertainment to top off. Make sure you catch Sunriver's Annual Exotic Car Show if you are around in September. Over 100 hot rods, exotic, and high performance vehicles will get your engine started at this free show that will entertain and enthrall adults and children alike.

Even the colder winter months can usher in warmth in Sunriver, particularly at Sunriver Resort's annual Traditions gathering. This holiday celebration includes horse-drawn sleighs, giant shimmering Christmas trees, Teddy Bear Teas, and a breakfast with Santa, among a slew of events that run from November past New Year's. Book your reservations and accommodations early with the resort, as this festival is a popular one.

Sunriver's snowy winters and warm summers provide a range of temperatures akin to its vast array of vacation activities. A trip to this notably distinctive hidden treasure should satisfy even the most finicky of your fussy fellow travelers.
