Halloween FUN!!!!

 Looking for somewhere fun and safe to take the kids trick or treating this year? Head down to the Old Mill District where all the stores and restaurants participate in handing out candy to the kids!

There is also a kids craft area in the Center Plaza which will include making their own treat bag, pumpkin painting and other fun crafts.

Other events going on their include wagon rides, a reptile rescue at Orvis where you can see and touch various reptiles and snakes(Yuck!!!) and a magic show!

There will even be a Marimba Band with students from Bear Creek Elementary, Pilot Butte and High Desert Middle Schools.

Thank you so much to American Licorice for generously donating the candy for this great event!!!

Great Bend Family Event Going on this weekend! 


The Eastern Cascade Model Railroad Club is having their 16th annual Open House this weekend! It is on October 8th and 9th from 10:00 to 4:00 pm and is a ton of fun!

They have a great indoor train set up that is just incredible. You can watch all the different scenes they have going and see all the different trains they have running on the tracks! It is a HUGE setup and everyone stares at it in awe.

Then you can also ride on their Outdoor Railroad which is so much fun for the kids! Last year they had two different tracks going with a few different trains which was nice because the line was not too long!

Come check it out with your family! It is of course another great free event in Bend but donations are always welcome. The donations help them to keep the trains coming and to expand the tracks.
