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.
There are classic events, and then there are classically classic events like the Oregon Bach Festival held the last part of June and into early July. Under the superb leadership of Helmuth Riling, the festival presents the choral and orchestral masterworks of Sebastian Bach. The event is held in Eugene at the University of Oregon's Beall Concert Hall and the Hult Center for the Performing Arts as well as other cities in Oregon.
Your need for good exercise is important, but then again, it is equally vital for your pet. Head to the Candlelight Park Off-Leash where you both can get in some enjoyable outdoor exercise. This park is specifically designated as an off-leash area, so your dog can enjoy the freedom and fun of running free without leaving the view of your watchful eye. The park is conveniently located off of Royal Avenue at Candlelight.
