Saturday, August 19, 2023 — or anytime!
Crabtree, Scio and Stayton
Running on empty thinking of date night ideas?
Take a drive around our beautiful Willamette Valley and discover new things about your own backyard – and your partner!
Download a map and a few short podcasts to spark conversation along the way and you will be ready and set to go. Participating businesses offered incentives for those that participated on August 19, but you can still visit or explore the route on your own another time that fits your schedule.
The loop is about a two-hour drive along a covered bridge tour route where you can enter from anywhere and choose your own adventure with as many or few stops as you like. The three podcasts are interviews with real couples followed by questions to discuss and learn with your partner.
Get the Tour Package with everything you need before this free event (print and download before you go since cell service may be spotty along the route).
Have fun together and rev up your relationship!
