Uptop Ghost Town

10/01/2025

Hello world! Been a while 😅

Thanks for sticking with us as we've navigated the many challenges that construction, planning, and life have thrown at us along the way.

We have some exciting news to share! As of this fall, we have officially commenced renovations on our 1940's historic log dancehall. This is to be a multi year project encompassing major structural rebuilds, high capacity modern utilities, a brand new top of the line stage, as well as a full service commercial kitchen/bar.

Although there's still a long road ahead, we couldn't be more ecstatic to finally be *dancing* down it with you! 🕺💃
