So you have a sailboat but aren't exactly sure where to set sail? The answer is easy when you make plans to visit the Fern Ridge Reservoir. This is a highly popular recreation spot for sailing in Lane County. When you do finally find yourself on the water, you'll be struck by the incredible view and many different species of waterfowl and other wildlife.
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.
