ROTATING HISTORY PHOTOS

Old Reedsport
Are you a longtime area resident or do you know someone that grew up in the Reedsport area?  Then the Umpqua Discovery Center is requesting your assistance in identifying history photos.  Many of the over 300 photos rotating on our photo screen have information, but we encourage people to stop by and find a photo to provide additional history.  

Chainsaw carvings donated to Center

The Umpqua Discovery Center is proud to announce that two carvings have been donated from the Oregon Divisional Chainsaw Sculpting Championships that were held June 2013 in Reedsport. The Reedsport / Winchester Bay Chamber of Commerce purchases the carvings and then place them around the Reedsport area. The 'Pelican' carving was done by Chris Foltz and the 'Jumping Salmon was done by George Kenney. Stop by the Center to enjoy these wonderful works of art.
