Caldwell
Idaho is located between Boise and the Oregon border and is the
first major city and western entrance as you enter the beautiful

visitors to our downtown commercial area. The Indian
Creek Festival, held on the third Saturday in September,
draws thousands of people and includes three entertainment stages,
a Rubber Duck Race, a Cardboard Kayak Race and a Tug of War Contest
across "the creek". The event features a Classic
Car Show with over 200 entries, a Pancake Breakfast put on by the
Caldwell Firefighters Auxillary, a "Fun Run & Walk"
sponsored by the Caldwell Kiwanis Club and many exhibtor and food
booths. Other activities put on by the City of Caldwell, local
businesses and various non-profit organizations include the Annual
4th of July Parade with Car Show and Fireworks, the Treasure Valley
Night Light Christmas Parade, the Caldwell
Winter Wonderland Christmas Light Display and the Local Legends
Talent Show benefitting Special Olympics. If you like the
blues, be sure to check out Blues
On The Banks that takes place every August.
