Get on the bus! Try Transit Week is June 1 - 5 🚌

🚍 Our friends at Cascades East Transit (CET) invite the community to hop on board for Try Transit Week, June 1–5. This weeklong celebration highlights the riders who keep Central Oregon moving while encouraging everyone to experience the ease and benefits of public transportation.

🤩 Throughout the week, CET will host community events, rider appreciation activities, and giveaways across the region. Riders can enter raffle drawings, connect with CET staff, learn about the CET Go account system, and take advantage of special transit pass promotions. It’s a great opportunity to explore transit, save money and support a more connected, sustainable community.

This Memorial Day, we pause to honor and remember those who gave their lives in service to our country. We are grateful for their sacrifice, as well as for the veterans and first responders who continue to serve our community every day.

We invite you to spend a moment of reflection at the Bend Heroes Memorial Plaza at Brooks Park. This meaningful space pays tribute to local heroes, with engraved bricks recognizing the individuals who have served. Set along the banks of Mirror Pond, it offers a beautiful place to remember and reflect.

➡️ In observance of the holiday, the BPRD District Office, Park Services, The Pavilion, and Larkspur Community Center are closed. Juniper Swim & Fitness Center will be open from 12:00–4:30 p.m.
