The fourth annual Yampa Valley Crane Festival will be held September 10-14, 2015 in beautiful Steamboat Springs and Hayden, Colorado. It will include five days of mostly free events thanks to donations from people like you and our wonderful sponsors, partners, and volunteers. The Bud Werner Memorial Library at 1289 Lincoln Ave., Steamboat Springs, CO will once again serve as headquarters for the festival. Click here to view locations of all other festival venues.
