Our Forks Story

Photo by: Travis Ross

For some, February means freezing temperatures and the potential of frostbite. For others, it's means warmth and the joy of LOVE! With 10 days till Valentine's Day, we're getting excited about all things lovely.

We know that The Forks has been a meeting place for thousands of years. People have come to gather, build community, share life and LOVE. Over the past few years, we've been witness to first dates, first kisses, proposals and the exchange of I do's. For some of those moments, we've been able to share in the fun and hear their stories, but we know there are many more that we never get to hear about.

This year, we're launching our first ever "Our Forks Story" contest. We want to hear about your love story and your connection to The Forks. Did you first meet here? Did you ask the big question here? Did you get married here?! In a few sentences share with us your story by emailing info@theforks.com or by commenting below.

Submitted stories will be entered to win an "Embrace Winter"gift pack of skate rentals, hot chocolate and mini donuts. One lucky story will be selected for a "Love Found" Package, which includes:

• "Embrace Winter" gift pack
• Dinner for two at the Old Spaghetti Factory
• "Make More Love" script painting by Kal Barteski
• A free half hour couple photo shoot on The Forks site with 12 edited photos

Contest ends February 13, 2015 at 11:59 pm, with winners being announced on Valentine's Day!

So send us your stories {and photos if you have} and share your memories and let's celebrate finding love at The Forks!
