The Optimist Club of Oregon City, Oregon is getting ready for a big celebration. It's called Pioneer Family Festival and it is a three day weekend packed with carnival rides, midway entertainment, vendor booths, festival food, Teddy Bear Parade, safety displays, and history preservation displays.
In addition to the usual fun of a weekend festival, there is also a BMX competition and a skateboard competition. New this year is an Arts in Action Area where urban artists will demonstrate aerosol artwork. (Can we say graffiti?) This is one way that the club keeps the allure of history engaged with current affairs.
All of the fun is scheduled to take place at Clackamette Park on May 14-16, 2010. Make your plans now to attend!
