Tours

Friday afternoon: Pendleton Woolen Mills—Pendleton’s Pacific Northwest woolen mills are a testament to the quest for quality established by their founders six generations ago in 1863. The intricate jacquard blankets and array of wool fabrics produced have earned a reputation on par with the greatest mills around the world. Come by and see for yourself how it is done!

Friday afternoon: Tamástslikt Cultural Institute—Immerse yourself in the history, culture and hospitality of the people who have lived on this land for more than 10,000 years. Come to Tamástslikt Cultural Institute and experience the storied past, rich present, and bright future of our tribes through interactive exhibits, special events and a Living Culture Village.

Saturday night: The Pendleton Underground Tours—The great success and popularity of the Pendleton Underground Tour is the wonderful well-trained and educated historians who guide tourists back in time to learn history that isn't taught in school, but was very much a part of the early West and the lives of our ancestors. Nothing is artificial or fabricated. Experience the Real Old West at the Pendleton Underground Tours. You'll learn history that no one wanted to talk about. Sign up on your conference registration form and join us on Saturday evening for this fun tour!
