Events under 'Outdoors'

Trout Fishing in America’s Keith Grimwood and Ezra Idlet have been friends and songwriting partners for 49 years. This nationally touring duo has traveled over a million miles and performed in all 50 states, parts of Canada and Europe.

They write music for people who take their fun seriously, and their dynamic sound, relatable lyrics and unique stage presence offer something for everyone. Bring your lawn chairs and blankets and join us for a free family-friendly concert on BGO’s Great Lawn.

Yoga for everyone!
Wednesdays @ 6 pm; 7 pm in July. All classes are held on the southwest end of Wilson park under the tree by the creek, opposite side to the playground area. Donations accepted. 

Thursdays, 6pm – our Owl Creek ride (March-October) – We meet at Owl Creek Elementary and have 3 different groups, depending on participation.

Usually there is an “A” group/race (20+mph avg.) drop group,

a “B” group focused on group riding skills (16-19mph), no-drop group (meaning no one left behind),

and a “C group/ Beginner’s Group” – which is a more relaxed ride where newer cyclists learn about group riding basics and experienced riders enjoy a more social ride.
