To celebrate Oregon State University’s 150th anniversary, OSU-Cascades is hosting Discovery Day from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 13 at its Bend campus.

The free festival will focus on family-friendly, educational presentations and events. Some of the presentation topics include “Climate Mysteries in Oregon,” wildfire, the ocean and the bond between humans and dogs. Visitors can also cook s’mores with a solar oven, watch demonstration flights of a drone pioneered by OSU-Cascades researchers and see a life-sized, 3-D digital model of the human anatomy.

Attendees can also take classes on flavored vinegar and stress-free canning, peruse a farmer’s market, or take a tour of the campus’ future expansion area. The newly built Bend Science Station campus will also be open to the public for tours.

Food will be provided by the college and local food trucks. For more information on the festival, visit https://osucascades.edu/discovery-day.
