What's happening in Angels Camp this weekend (Oct 30–Nov 1)?

Nothing is listed in Angels Camp this weekend yet. The nearest town with something on is Murphys, or see everything on the corridor this weekend.

Angels Camp is the only incorporated city in Calaveras County (pop 3,667) and the practical hub for everyone on the 4. Save Mart, Calaveras Lumber, Adventist Health, and Mike's Pizza, all on South Main. It's also Frogtown: the Calaveras County Fair & Jumping Frog Jubilee runs the third weekend of May and has been jumping frogs since 1928.

› Read more about Angels Camp

If you live up the hill in Arnold or Murphys, you end up in Angels Camp whether you planned to or not. It's where Save Mart is. It's where the urgent care is. It's where Calaveras Lumber sits at 155 S Main, and yes, it's Do it Best, not Ace. Ace is up in Arnold.

But Angels Camp isn't just the supply depot. The Calaveras County Fair & Jumping Frog Jubilee is the single biggest event on the corridor, four days the third weekend of May, with roots back to Mark Twain's 1865 short story. Frogtown (officially the Calaveras Fairgrounds at 2465 Gunclub Rd) also hosts All Hallows Faire in late October and a steady drumbeat of smaller events the rest of the year.

Eating here is unfussy and good. Mike's Pizza on South Main has won best pizza in three counties for a decade-plus and operates as the corridor's great equalizer: contractors, retirees, ski families, everyone goes. For a nicer night, Camps Restaurant sits inside Greenhorn Creek Resort with a seasonal California menu, and Golden Frog Bistro took over the old Rodz Grill space at 730 S Main and runs date-night service with locally sourced food. The Angels Camp Museum (30,000+ sq ft, one of the largest carriage and wagon collections in the country) is worth an actual stop, not just a drive-by.

Looking for the Angels Camp Farmers Market?Friday evenings at Utica Park, with the dates for this season.
