Experience Central Oregon like never before

Family. Friends. Neighbors. Pie. Mistletoe. Reindeer. Oh… and a parade too! This season, we’re coming together as a community to lift one another up. Start Thanksgiving morning, November 26, at I Like Pie, where every step helps us raise $60,000 for the Boys & Girls Club of Bend. Then bundle up the whole family on Saturday, December 5. Kick off the morning with the Mistletoe Miler and the Reindeer Rush, then line the streets of downtown Bend at noon for the Bend Christmas Parade. Because the season shines brightest when we’re together. Let Us Be Light!
