General Information

The 103rd Annual Alder Creek Pioneer Picnic and Rodeo will be held June 7, 8, and 9,  2013 at the Cleveland Park in Cleveland.
Events and activities include RV camping, carousel rides, Saturday night dance, good food and a NPRA rodeo on Saturday and Sunday.

Get involved yourself and go for a ride on the carousel! It is a 1905 Herschell-Spillman and is said to be one of only three of its type still working. It was purchased from Portland's Oaks Park in 1929 and brought to Bickleton. All of the horses are stored at the museum during the year and are only brought out for this one week-end. Age doesn't matter to ride this classic! From newborns to great, great grandparents; anyone can ride!
