Join us in celebrating the summer solstice with Dave’s Solstice Run 5K at Blue Lake. There will also be a free Kids fun run.
This event is named after Dave Green, a long-time ORRC member and volunteer. Dave was an active board member, joining in 1981, and becoming president in 1992.

Race director for multiple events, including the original Blue Lake Runs, Dave was also the “Treasurer Extraordinaire” and was instrumental in helping the club through some tough times financially in the past.
This event epitomizes Dave Green, and his love for low-key, family friendly events.

ORRC’s member picnic is a way we come together and have fun as a group with food, games, and a kid’s run. This is our way of giving thanks to our many members. Without you ORRC would not exist.
We’ve reserved the Jackie Husen Park in Cedar Hills for the picnic fun from 11 am until 1 pm. Join us for lawn games and a picnic. Bring your blanket to stretch out on the grass.
As a special bonus this year, if you attend the member picnic on July 4th, we will be having a raffle for two free entries into the Portland Marathon, along with other prizes. Registration is free for all ORRC members and their families, but please register so we can get an accurate head count for food.
Parking is limited so we encourage everyone to carpool if possible. Please join us. We look forward to seeing you all there!

The Best Dam Run course is lovely! Mostly on private closed road, it features views of the Clackamas River, cool forests, interesting geology and (if you’re lucky) bald eagles and osprey. The 10K is a speedy, net downhill point-to-point course, same as prior years. The half marathon course (first offered last year in 2023) is a Z-fold course — it starts out with the 10K, then at 3.45 miles, heads back towards the start, then turns around yet again to finish at the same finish line as the 10K, Broadway Street in downtown Estacada.
