Get Outdoors Day 2026

OSU Research Forests, OSU Extension Service, and Community Health Centers of Linn and Benton County hosts Get Outdoors Day in Peavy Arboretum. We are also partnering with OSU Days of Service to celebrate volunteerism in our community.

During this event, the forest brims with bilingual activities, families, and community groups – all coming together with the goal of getting people outside, enjoying community, and hopefully trying something new along the way (like catching a fish in Cronemiller Pond for the first time). We make sure to offer free transportation to the event to ensure that every family has a chance to take part in the fun.
