Don’t miss the rides, food, games and entertainment. Dust off those boots and head down to the county fair for a great time.
76 Disc Golf
For a new challenge, try your skill at disc golf at a course in Sanpete County. There are two to choose from:
Allen Howell Disc Golf Course, 681 E. Mill Road, Ephraim: This course is all in the rough with plenty of sagebrush and small, unexpected hills and dips. Redesigned in 2022, the course has 18 holes in rugged terrain. Wear good walking shoes; this course is not suitable for carts.
Gunnison Disc Golf Park, 200 N. Main Street, Gunnison: This is a 9-hole course located in the city park. The terrain is grassy, restrooms are available and the course is cart friendly. The first teepad is located by the Veterans Memorial opposite the parking lot.
77 Spring City Arts Gallery
View and purchase local art at the Spring City Arts gallery located at 79 S. Main Street in Spring City. Summer gallery hours are noon to 5 p.m. Wednesday through Saturday. A variety of workshops and special events are also held at the gallery; visit the Spring City Arts website for more information
78 FARMER’S MARKET
Beck Family Farms, 300 W. 100 South, Centerfield, offers a farmer’s market each year from mid-August through the early part of November (excluding Sundays). You never know what you’ll find; it could be some of the farm’s approximately 90 varieties of pumpkins or 80 varieties of squash, or it could be gourds, jams, jellies or other fresh vegetables in season. Go check it out and be surprised!
79 Take A Historic Walking Tour
Sanpete communities are full of historic structures. Walk through your community and search for historical markers and buildings, then see what you can learn about them. To get you started, both Manti and Ephraim have brochures available that list sites of note and a little bit of history about them. They also have maps, making your walk easy to plan. You can download these brochures by scanning the QR codes.
