Caves, Chateau celebrations ...
(Continued from page 8)
There was also a sugges-
tion for organizing an eques-
trian ride over the historic
trail to the cave, the route that
was used by Elijah Davidson
when he discovered the cave
in 1874. This ride
likely would go
from Williams to
Oregon Caves fol-
lowing a route that
could include the
old Clapboard Trail
to Windy Gap near
Grayback Peak and
then the Boundary
Trail to Bigelow
Lakes before drop-
ping down to the
monument, a dis-
tance of about 20
miles.
One of the
interns at the
monument said
that he is working
on finding docu-
mentation to vali-
date the historic relevance of
this route.
Dave Thompson, the
lead guide at Oregon Caves,
suggested getting photos
enlarged, and developing a
traveling display that could be
put up at the airport for the
2009 season. This prompted
additional discussion about
encouraging local artists to do
illustrations or paintings that
might be used in displays or
exhibited at Cave Junction’s
weekly Second Friday Art
Walk.
Karen Stiles, of Cave
Junction, suggested a bicycle
run to the monument or
maybe a foot race over some
of the trails.
“The road up to the
monument is a beautiful bike

ride,” she said adding that this
is the sort of thing that partici-
pants in Cycle Oregon look
for and participate in. Like
many people in the room, she
expressed interest in how
events like this would benefit
the local economy
with increased tourism
and promote the val-
ley in a positive light.
The discussion then
turned to how the
event might be cele-
brated.
“Should we do this in
one day, a week, or
spread out over the
2009 season?” asked
Ackerman. There was
no consensus, but the
group generally indi-
cated an interest in a
series of related events
spread over the sea-
son.
Several dates were
suggested to include
May 15, the date that
the lodge was dedicated in
1934; July 12, the date that
the monument was dedicated
in 1909; and Nov. 11, the
date that the caves were dis-
covered in 1874.
There were also sugges-
tions that the monument part-
ner with other event organiz-
ers to become a significant
part of other annual events
such as the Blackberry Festi-
val, Boatnik, and Josephine
County Fair.
The meeting concluded
with a great deal of enthusi-
asm and an air of optimism
from participants that Illinois
Valley and Josephine County
have a significant opportunity
to be in the lime light during
the Oregon State sesquicen-
tennial.
(Notes from this meeting
and another meeting to be held
in Grants Pass will be compiled
by Densmore and made public
later.)
