Columbia Gorge Chapter Picnic Canceled

This event has been canceled and may be rescheduled in the Spring.

The Columbia Gorge Chapter has been pretty quiet since Covid and it’s about time we get ramped up again. So, we want to invite our members and their families to a chapter picnic on October 15, 2023 at Horsethief Lake picnic area.

The chapter will provide fixin’s for sandwiches, salads, chips, cookies and a selection of non-alcoholic drinks. There are 35 unsheltered picnic tables located around the day-use area. Nine braziers are available if you want to cook something. Facilities are first-come, first-served so let’s plan to gather at noon. We’ll need to know about how many to plan for so please use the link below to let us know that you’re planning to attend and how many will be with you.

We can do group games like three legged and sack races, beanbag toss games, balloon or egg races, maybe hands-free watermelon eating contest for entertainment. If anyone is so inclined, it would be great if you wanted to do a brief talk about geology and/or cultural aspects of the area. At the end we can also take a short trip to the petroglyph display if you’ve not seen that. But the main purpose is to get together, have some fun, and talk about renewing chapter activities.
