Escape without having to go too far when you plan to spend a little romantic time together on a date at Hendricks Park. This is Eugene's oldest city park and it offers several natural amenities that will make your time together quite memorable. Over its sprawling 78 acres, the two of you will find a mature forest to marvel at, a highly-recognized rhododendron garden to admire, and several winding trails on which to stroll casually hand in hand.
When you dig deep, you never know what you'll find. Getting below the surface of history and cultural traditions will allow you to gain a deeper understanding, and there's no better place to do that in Eugene than at the University of Oregon Museum of Natural and Cultural History. Here, the past is present in so many colorful and multidimensional ways. You'll be able to experience an amazing 15,000 years of Oregon's cultural history as well as an equally stunning 200 million years of geology. Get ready, because the trip is a dramatic one, with adventure at nearly every turn.
Sometimes, great talent can be found right in your own back yard. Such is the case with the fine actors, producers, directors and technical personnel who are part of Eugene's Lord Leebrick Theatre Company. The group's mission is to entertain audiences with bold, often thought-provoking theater presented in a charming and intimate surrounding. The entertainment facility has upheld its artistic tradition for the past nineteen years and shows no signs of stopping the show anytime soon.
