Eugene is home to the Eugene Emeralds, a short-season Class A minor league baseball team. The “Ems,” as they are commonly referred to, play their home games in PK Park which is also the home of the University of Oregon baseball team.
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.
Breathing in Eugene's fresh clean air is always more refreshing when you do it at Alton Baker Park. This incredible park stretches out over 402 acres to make it the city's largest riverfront park. And it doesn't matter what season it is, as the park hosts various festivals, running and walking races and community events throughout the year. There's also an off-leash dog park, the Cuthbert Theatre, Pre's Trail and other attractions on the grounds, as well.
When you think about it, the history you sometimes find in your own back yard can be truly amazing. That element of surprise and discovery is what makes a visit to the Lane County Historical Society and Museum so much fun. This fascinating venue was established to collect, preserve and interpret the history of Lane County. It accomplishes its mission quite well through the use of various exhibits, presentations and children's educational programs.
