2025 Spring Jam - Interview with The Honorable Joe Hardy, Mayor of Boulder City

We hope you enjoyed the 2025 Spring Jamboree in beautiful Boulder City, Nevada.

Spring Jam has been held since 1977, and is considered by many to be Boulder City's first major public festival of the year. We had the pleasure of interviewing a cross-section of civic leaders, artisans, and vendors that help to make this public festival the success that it is.

This segment of
 The Best Dam Podcast features the Honorable Joe Hardy, Mayor of Boulder City. Mayor Hardy is the first guest in the Chamber's new Mobile Podcast Studio. 

In this episode, you'll hear stories about how the Spring Jam has brought the city together for decades, the importance of community involvement, and some charming glimpses into the mayor's personal life—including the comfort of the back porch at their house, the occassional rainy day stroll with his wife (Jill) and the joys of living in a small town. Mayor Hardy also shares insider tips for visitors, how Boulder City has maintained its small-town feel, and why the Chamber of Commerce is a go-to resource for locals and newcomers alike.

 Whether you're a Boulder City resident, planning a visit, or just love hearing about thriving small-town America, this episode is bursting with local flavor, heartfelt stories, and the spirit of Spring Jam. Tune in and get ready to fall in love with Boulder City all over again!
