Skamania Lodge Presents 2023 Western Whiskey and BBQ
The spirit of the American west comes to the forefront this fall when Skamania Lodge returns with its Western Whiskey and BBQ. Now in its second year, this year’s event will be held on Saturday, October 7, 2023 from 5:00-7:00pm.
Western Whiskey and BBQ is an evening of celebrating the cowboy lifestyle of the American west. Once again it will feature a splendid spread of food, whiskey cocktails from Westward Whiskey, poetry from Tom Swearingen and live music from Joni Harms.
Hosted in the Skamania Lodge’s new Moonlight Pavilion, this outdoor space offers scenic views of the Columbia River Gorge and its beautiful surroundings. The pavilion features four gas fire pits, bar and restrooms perfect for an evening at the lodge.
Last year, Oregon’s Cowboy Poet Tom Swearingen mesmerized the audience with his storytelling that painted life like pictures of how it was on the American frontier. And when Tom is not indulging the audience with his art, Joni Harms will be taking over with her guitar strumming focused songs creating a fine way to settle in for a fall evening.
