The Revenue Cutter Service was established on August 4th, 1790. The Cape Blanco Heritage Society usually celebrates the birth date of the organization on the 1st Sunday in August. The Cutter Service saw action during the Civil War and was instrumental in the development of Alaska. This branch of service was active in environmental protection dating back to the 1822 Timber Act that tasked them with protecting government timber from poachers. In 1915 the Revenue Cutter Service and Lifesaving Service were merged into the U.S. Coast Guard as we know it today.
 
Visit our Museum at the Port Orford Heads before or during the concert and learn more about the history of this interesting area and enjoy the beautiful hiking trails with the wonderful ocean views. The Port Orford Heads State Park is on the ocean side of Highway 101. Turn West on 9th Street in Port Orford, near Milepost 301, and then follow the road up the hill to where the road ends.

Langlois Cheese Factory music and artisan festival

Date: 

Sunday, June 25, 2023 - 11:00am

On June 25th, the lush pastures of Langlois will be the backdrop for the SUMMERTIME Music and Artisan Festival. This all-day, outdoor event will start at 11:00 a.m. with old-timey and Americana music; followed by Reb and the Good News’ blend of funk, world beat, and rich, melodic vocals. Nashville-based The Travelin’ McCourys – a phenomenal bluegrass band, whose roots run deep in the genre – will carry forward the musical tradition of Bill Monroe and Del McCoury, while bending that tradition toward untethered artists such as Jerry Garcia and the Grateful Dead. To round out the festival, Chicago-based Lowdown Brass Band will fuse their powerful, all-horn dancehall and street beat rhythms with the lyrical muscle of hip-hop artist MC Billa Camp, to deliver an epic, “GETDOWN” dance party.

Artists and artisans from the region will set up around the lawn to sell their hand-made wares, and vendors will be serving food, beer, and wine. Bring your blankets, chairs, and picnic basket, spread out on the lawn, and enjoy! And bring the kids, they’re free, but please, NO DOGS. This event will run from 11:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., ideally under summer skies…. but it is the Oregon coast, so pack the wool and Grundens!

 

Tickets are $35.00 in advance, and $40.00 at the door --- until sold out!
