As we enter the 10th consecutive year of Riverfest, we are proud to bring a total of 23 events spanning from May 2 to May 11.  Throughout this 10-day period, Riverfest will highlight ongoing habitat restoration projects, outdoor recreation along the river, and a variety of community-based efforts in watershed restoration.

Riverfest celebrates the fact that the social, economic and cultural future of our Central Oregon community is linked to the long-term health and viability of our rivers.  The Deschutes River defines much of our region's history and character - it is the primary reason Central Oregon was settled more than 100 years ago and it continues to provide for our economic health, recreation, fish and wildlife, community identity and unparalled natural beauty.

Riverfest events are developed to help members of our community gain a more in-depth understanding of our watershed and develop a closer connection to the Deschutes River and its tributaries.  

For more information, please contact Jon Wiley, Riverfest coordinator at (541) 633-3765 or via email.
