Independent Journalism in Phoenix Needs You
We need to raise $15,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.

Some might think that it’s a good time to get outta Dodge. But why not throw the rest of the country the finger and vacation right here in Arizona?

The event features workshops on topics such as venomous wildlife and scenic photography, plus dozens of vendors offering discounts on everything from Dolly Steamboat cruises to bed & breakfasts along Route 66.
