Family fun in Sisters

Recreation, education and cultural activities

For organized outdoor, educational and cultural activities, turn to Sisters Park & Recreation District (SPRD).

SPRD’s Coffield Community Center is located adjacent to Sisters High School at 1750 W. McKinney Butte Rd. (1/2 mile west of downtown on the McKenzie Highway). This popular program offers a variety of programs for youth and adults. SPRD programs are open to residents and visitors alike and fees are very reasonable. Call 541-549-2091.

This summer, A Joyful Noise Learning Center (104 E. Adams Ave.) will offer a series of activities for children from pre-school through fourth grade. The programs include arts and crafts, games and themed events. Half-day and full-day programs are available. Call 541-549-2066.

The Sisters Library (110 N. Cedar St.) offers summer reading programs and other resources for children. Call 541-312-1070.

Horseback riding

A guided, safe trail ride is a fun way for the family to get out and experience the beauty of the Sisters Country. Black Butte Stables, located at Black Butte Ranch, offers trail rides tailored to your level of experience with a chance to learn a bit about horses while enjoying some of the prettiest scenery in the area. Call 541-595-2061.

Sisters Parks

The little ones will enjoy the playground right in the middle of town at the Village Green. There’s a nice, safe play set and they’re sure to meet other kids to play with.

Creekside City Park at the east end of Jefferson Avenue doesn’t offer any equipment, but it’s a great place to splash in Whychus Creek during a family picnic.

There’s a nice public playground on the grounds of Sisters Christian Academy, located at 15211 McKinney Butte Rd. (behind Sisters Community Church). The playground is open to the public during non-school hours.

Movies

Sisters Movie House, located in the FivePine campus at the east end of town, is “Sisters’ living room.” The movie house boasts four screens, seating for approximately 330 people and a café that serves light meals, beer and wine as well as traditional theater concessions. The theater carries first-run, mainstream movies and also some independent films you might not catch anywhere else. There are also special events. Call 549-8800. Check the schedule each week in The Nugget Newspaper (Pick one up for free on newstands around town.).

If staying in for a movie is more your style, there are several video outlets in town that carry the latest releases on DVD.

Disc Golf

An outstanding 18-hole Disc Golf Course is located next to the SPRD Coffield Community Center at 1750 W. McKinney Butte Rd. The course is open all the time and there is no charge for playing. Many clubs hold tournaments there and it is popular for casual group play. Course maps are available at the Center.
