Jam at the Frenchglen Jamboree
The Frenchglen Jamboree on August 4, 2018 is a family-friendly event at the gateway to Steens Mountain Wilderness. The day includes a youth rodeo, live music and bbq dinner, all hosted by the Frenchglen Community Club. Other fun events include a horseshoe and cribbage tournament, and a dutch oven dessert cookoff! Come hungry and stay long enough for the dancing.
And, don’t forget – safety first!
Be careful on your high desert adventures. Summer months often have extreme fire danger. Please don’t drive over tall grasses. Many 2-track roads have tall grasses between the tracks that can catch on fire from hot vehicle undercarriages during times of extreme fire danger and, if you’re planning to leave the pavement, carry a shovel, fire extinguisher and five gallons of water in the vehicle with you.
Refer to our Desert Travel Tips for more suggestions on staying cool in the summer, and please follow all Leave No Trace principals while on your adventure.
