If you’re heading to Oakridge, Oregon this July 11–12, pack your tent, your questions about interdimensional hominoids, and—for your own safety—a can of Squatch Away!® brand Sasquatch Repellent.
That’s right: the second annual Sasquatch Summer Fest is landing at Greenwaters Park, bringing together believers, skeptics, and researchers for two days of stories, speculation, and all things Sasquatch. Hosted by Priscilla Davidson—festival founder and curator of the Area 58 Museum—this isn’t your average campfire cryptid chat. Davidson isn’t just here for footprints in the mud; she’s asking bigger questions, like “What is the Bigfoot–alien connection?”
(We’d like to suggest a third piece of the triangle: Sasquatch Repellent.)
Paranormal Pedigree
Davidson isn’t new to this world. Her father spent years on Yeti expeditions from Nepal to the Pacific Northwest, and she grew up steeped in Sasquatch lore. That lifelong immersion turned into a mission—to create a space where people can gather, question, and explore the boundaries of what we think we know. This year’s festival promises expert panels, filmmaker Q&As, and casual encounters with people who’ve seen, heard, or possibly mind-melded with Sasquatches.
A Festival of Ideas—and Footprints
While Sasquatch Summer Fest encourages open-minded discussion, we at Squatch Away!® are more concerned with open terrain. The kind where a 9-foot bipedal hominoid might casually step out of the tree line.
This is Oregon, after all—prime Squatch country. Whether you’re swapping theories or roasting marshmallows, there’s always the risk that the guest of honor might show up uninvited. That’s why we always recommend keeping Squatch Away!® close at hand. Our scientifically overengineered formula is designed to repel bipedal hominoids and maintain harmony with the local ecosystem—including any paranormal hotspots you might stumble into.
Oakridge Shops: Be Ready
Greenwaters Park might be ground zero for Sasquatch buzz this weekend, but the rest of Oakridge should be prepared as well. We strongly encourage local gift shops, outfitters, and gas stations to start stocking Squatch Away!® brand Sasquatch Repellent before the festival begins. With attendees actively hoping for a Sasquatch encounter, someone needs to be the voice of reason—and carry the repellent.
Whether You’re a Skeptic or a Seeker…
The Sasquatch Summer Fest is a one-of-a-kind experience that blurs the lines between science, folklore, and Oregon-style weirdness. And whether you’re attending to chase answers or just enjoy a little forest mysticism, don’t forget that preparedness is part of the fun.
Because nothing says “serious researcher” like showing up with a notebook in one hand and a can of Squatch Away!® in the other.
