Forecast Discussion for the Prescott Valley Outdoor Summit Sept 16-18

The dry air really arrives across the region by Thursday and continues through the end of the week. Mid-level flow turns more zonal later in the week and as the dry air moves in, we should also see temperatures start to rebound and gradually warm back to more seasonable temperatures as we head into the weekend.

When you’re putting on an outdoor summit and all you know is dirt, water, fresh air and camping, it pays to ask for assistance from someone who really knows the music industry. The kind of pros to help round out your outdoor event and create an awesome vibe throughout the weekend. This year we are very proud to say that Grammy nominated singer, songwriter Candace Devine came to our aid, lining up the main stage bands for September’s Prescott Valley Outdoor Summit. Candace’s production company is Further West Productions, a production company that pays it forward. Their mission is to create content and events that showcase local artists, as well as creatives around the globe.  Her band is Ponderosa Grove.

Meanwhile, teamwork kicked in even more as Jett from Founding Fathers and the King Copper Band helped us line up our campground bands. Teamwork indeed!!

Scandalous Hands is a four-piece rock band out of Prescott, Arizona. The band came together back in October of 2016, when Troy Schilperoort, Adam Haar, and Dennis Messenger began working on a set of musical material that could incorporate funk grooves, jazz harmonic structures, and the exploratory improvisation of jam bands. Shawnee Snaketail soon joined the group on drums, completing the band’s roster. Since then, Scandalous Hands continues to grow, debuting new material with each performance, and unleashing an explosive inventiveness in their covers of familiar classics.

Having started as a street musician and working his way up to world tours, Richardson has been celebrated as an inductee into Arizona’s Music and Entertainment Hall of Fame. 

The Cross-Eyed Possum is an adventurous, deep-thinking, and energetic band. Introducing identical twin brother duo Jason and Jonah Howard! They write and perform original Folk, Americana, and Rock’n’Roll music.

King Copper is a traditional jazz band from Prescott, Arizona and plays old hot jazz songs from the 1920s.

You’ve seen them and maybe you just don’t know it. Ever been watching a NASCAR race on TV and the on-board camera peels off a lense cover to get rid of the bugs and mud for a better view? We are stoked to have TearOff Products on board the 2022 Prescott Valley Outdoor Summit!

TearOff Products (TOP) LOVES UTV’s! Here in the mountains of Arizona, TOP is out in the Prescott National Forest and Sonoran deserts down south. UTV’s are an exciting way to “get away”. TearOff Products UTV Windshield TearOffs are 3 layers of protection, designed to save your windscreens and windshields from the harsh and brutal environments encountered on the trail. Rock chips lead to cracks – the nemesis of glass windshields! This bummer can be avoided when you apply a 3 layer stack of TearOffs! Plastic Windscreens are pricey, as much as $500 or more. So, getting scratches, sand pitting, swirls can really screw up a good ride. TearOff Products’ 1+3 layer stack of TearOffs – the same combo used by NASCAR teams – will protect that windscreen for months of mud, brush, blowing sand and flying rocks!

Windscreen Protection for:
• Mud Sloggin
• Hunters Traveling Through Heavy Brush
• Construction Managers Job Site
• Desert Adventures
• Seniors Dodging Harmful UV Sunlight

Check them out this September at the 2022 Prescott Valley Outdoor Summit in BOOTH #45 ! Special thanks to Mike Johns of TearOff Products. You rock dude!
