Monday Nov 10th

Join NHCC for a wonderful Travel showcase on Oregon...

Oregon,  USA’s other coast, the west coast with its beautiful rocks and boulders on its sandy coastal beach line. Oregon is an incredible state with a wide variety of landscapes. Everyone has heard about the spectacular Pacific coast, along with the Rainforests and waterfalls of the Columbia River Gorge but there is so much more to the state. In Central Oregon you find Crater Lake, the Cascades and a Lava field that extends for as far as you can see. Western Oregon is a combination of desert and miles of grasslands where the first European settlers followed the Oregon Trail. Come enjoy beautiful images choreographed to music and an informative narration about this amazing area of the Northwest.
