The SLUG Queen Competition and Coronation Saturday Market Stage, 8th & Oak Friday, 6pm FREE Oh, the glorious SLUG Queen. Easily the most glamorous event of the entire celebration, don’t miss the Serving up a heaping helping of rootsy rock with blues, R&B and funk influ- ences, the Radiators are one of those bands that everyone loves.

By Melissa Bearns competition and coronation that ushers in yet another generation of Eugene’s royalty. The Winery Tour Alton Baker Park Saturday morning, Cost: $25 We can’t really think of a better way to spend the day than to bike around from win- ery to winery through the bucolic country- side sampling wines and taking in the fabu- lous views. The tour starts at Alton Baker Park and stops by the Hinman Vineyards and King Estates among others. Log on to www.oregon-adventures.com to register or call 782-2388 for more information. The Radiators Spirit Mountain Casino 5th Ave. Stage (at 5th, between Oak & Pearl) Saturday, 10pm FREE You define the family . . . We provide the food! Iraila circa 1964 The Salon des Refuses 110 W. Broadway Open to the public daily from noon ‘til 10pm (after the Celebration ‘til 6pm) until the closing reception on Fri Oct. 22. FREE For some, ending up in the Salon des Refuses, where the artwork refused by the Mayor’s Art Show is displayed, is a terrible disappointment. For others it’s an honor. We agree with the latter interpretation. The art is always a little more interesting, a little more political and a little more in-your- face. We like that. Tree Climbing West Park Blocks, near 8th & Oak Sunday, Sept. 19, 11am - 4pm FREE Free your inner child from quiet time and come out to play. Go climb a tree with the Pacific Tree Climbing Institute. Recently founded, the institute hopes to instill a bet- ter understanding and love of big trees by hauling people high into the canopies. La Follette Gallery & Framing Has Moved!
