Oregon Trail Live

Oregon Trail Live Gather your team, pack your wagons, hit the trail and try not to die of dysentery on July 3rd, 2020 a Now we're doing a giant, live-action version of the game.

The Oregon Trail game taught us about so much — history, measles, what "caulking" means, and death. Come join us. On September 20, teams will face challenges like hunting, grave digging, caulking and floating their wagons (actually cleverly decorated take-out containers) and carrying 200 pounds of meat. Willamette Heritage Center at The Mill (WHC), in conjunction with Kraftworks Taphouse,, Willame

tte University, f/stop Fitzgerald, Tokyo University in America, the Cherry City Derby Girls, Courthouse Athletics and more have teamed up for the day. For those who wish to get a taste of the punishing physicality that results from walking across the country, Courthouse Athletic Club will offer the Grueling Pace Challenge, with period-somewhat-accurate tasks like carrying wood and doing old-timey calisthenics. Costumes, team names, and a healthy can-do pioneer spirit are all highly encouraged. Between tasks, competitors and spectators can learn about Oregon history on the five-acre museum grounds, which celebrated the Willamette Valley's pioneer and industrial heritage with 14 historic buildings that encompass the saga and richness of the state’s past. Miss Milly's Saloon, Gambling Den, Dance Hall and Arm Wrestling Emporium will be open. Arm wrestling optional. Tickets will go on sale on Aug.1 with brownpapertickets.com; check back here for the registration link in a few days!
