2019 RIDE THE ROGUE
September 21
he Rogue River Greenway Foundation, a guiding force behind the building of the Greenway recreational corridor
Tproject, announces their 2019 Ride the Rogue fundraiser on Saturday, September 21. Mary Mumma, a recent
transplant from Fort Collins, Colorado has been named this year’s event coordinator.
Four cycling rides will be available for participants: a century (100 mile), 70 mile, 40 mile, and 20 mile, all followed
by a great post-ride party with food, craft beer and music at Palmerton Park in Rogue River.
The 2.5-mile section connecting the Gold Hill segment (just north of Del Rio Winery) with the Rogue River segment
of the trail (south end of the Valley of the Rogue State Park) will be built this year starting in late spring with comple-
tion by late fall. Josephine County and the City of Grants Pass will be looking at the eventual completion of the Rogue
River Greenway to link with the already completed Bear Creek Greenway in Jackson County.
