Description:

We will meet at 9 a.m. at Albertsons on 30th St. in S. Eugene. It is about 25 miles south to Cottage Grove where we will park at the Cottage Grove Community Center and Library, 700 E. Gibbs Avenue. There are several walking tours with maps and descriptions available at cgchamber.com/self-guided-tours. Mostly they focus on the blocks around downtown and we will noodle around not too quickly. Plan on a restaurant lunch and in the afternoon we will visit the Bohemia Gold Mining Museum which opens at 1 and has a $2 admission fee. The trip will end after the museum and folks who want to stay and walk longer can do so.
