Cape Blanco Lighthouse: The Sturdy Sentinel Location: Nine miles north of Port Orford Tower first lit: 1870 Current status: Automated since 1980 Nestled 256-feet up on a chalky-white cliff jutting a mile-and-a-half out into the Pacific Ocean, this brick structure bears the title of oldest standing lighthouse on the Oregon coast, and she’s located smack dab on the westernmost point in all of the state. Open April through October 10-3:30pm, closed Tuesdays.Coquille River Lighthouse: The Inland Guidepost Location: Entrance to the Coquille River Tower first lit: 1896 Current status: Deactivated in 1939; lit ceremonially each December Head to Bullards Beach State Park to gaze upon this conical brick and stucco beauty, which boasts a 40-foot tower and a foundation hewn from locally sourced stone.Umpqua River Lighthouse: The Second-Chance Beacon Location: Above the Umpqua

River, at the entrance to Winchester Bay Tower first lit: 1894 Current status: Automated since 1966 This stucco and brick column is actually the predecessor of the Oregon coast’s very first lighthouse.

Yaquina Head Lighthouse: The Commanding Column Location: Three miles north of the entrance to Yaquina Bay Tower First Lit: 1873 Current status: Automated since 1966 This conical brick bastion, looming 162 feet above the ocean on a narrow spit of land jutting due west, boasts a 93-foot tower accessible by 114 steps straight up.

When the town of Pendleton in North Eastern Oregon, popu-lation 13,000, grows to more than 60,000 during Round-Up week can there be any secrets? Well maybe, but there are a few things a person should know if they have always wanted to visit the Pendleton Round-Up.

Celebrating 105 years September of this year the Pendleton Round-Up and the companion event, the Happy Canyon Indian Pageant, kick off performances on September 16 and each continue through the week with the last performances September 19. Clearly by week end the town of Pendleton is about ready to bust at the seams as travelers from literally every-where come to enjoy everything Round-Up week has to offer. The evening night show of The Happy Canyon Indian Pageant starts at 7:45pm portrays the settling of Eastern Oregon, a show that will be celebrating 99 years in 2015. Add the VFW’s Cowboy Breakfast each morn-ing in Stillman Park and the Westward Ho! Parade on Friday and a couple of American Indian Beauty contests and there is plenty to fill each day. But, what about those secrets?

First it’s no secret that trying to find a place to stay in Pendleton during the week of community excitement is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Motels are full, dry camps for tents and RV’s at public facilities around town managed by the Chamber of Commerce are full, heck even the extra beds in accom-modating residents are full. Shhhhhh…but with persistence you still might find a place to stay from Wednesday through Saturday. So if you keep calling on availability and you have the opportunity to break away at a

moment’s notice you could find yourself in Pendleton.

For a true secret remem-ber it is Round-Up week so the crescendo of excitement really starts building on the first Saturday of Round-Up week, in 2015 it is September 12. On Saturday the Dress Up Parade in the morning gets the hubbub started. Saturday night is the Concert in Happy Canyon arena which has featured country stars for a couple of decades and this year is no exception when Scotty McCreery comes to town.

On Monday there is Slack for barrel racing, on the largest pattern in professional rodeo. Entrance to the Round-Up grounds is free, and the world famous Let’er Buck Room, one of the best western bars in the world, opens its doors for the week. You can follow a day of watching Slack with a night of the Professional Bull Riders at the US Bank PBR Classic in Happy Canyon arena.

Tuesday do it all over again with Slack starting at 8:30am and going all day as all the other timed event cowboys – steer wrestling, tie-down roping, and team roping - do their best to catch a steer or calf in the famed Round-Up grass arena. For these three events cowboys must compete in “two goes” so almost every cowboy in the timed events will compete on this day. Entrance is General Admission again for an easy $2 bucks. The real secret for Tuesday is not only can you see the best of the timed event cowboys but you can literally rub shoulders with them in the stands and in the Let’er Buck Room. And you aren’t finished yet because you can take in a second night of the PBR.

If you are yearning to see at

least one official performance then stay for Wednesday and watch the first performance of the Pendleton Round-Up, enjoy a family barbeque in the Round-Up arena after, head to Main Street for a while and come back for the Happy Canyon that night. Wednesday is when Happy Canyon’s backroom bar Goldie’s opens up after the first night of the Pageant so you can kick your heals up with a little dancing and put a few chips down on the table for traditional gaming in the back room of Happy Canyon.

So now the secrets are out, come to Pendleton early, help spur the excitement for one of the most exciting weeks there is in professional rodeo and for that matter in any commu-nity and leave town as the herd rushes in.

Wait there is one more secret. If you are set on coming to Pendleton for the performances

of Wednesday through Saturday then start planning early. Get your motel room or your RV spot in January and then buy your tickets for each day. Most folks don’t know it but you can buy tickets for the Pendleton Round-Up and Happy Canyon 15 months in advance. So if you want tickets for 2016, the Centennial Year of the Happy Canyon, you can get

your tickets now.
