  Upward Bound Camp - Gate Site

  Gates, OR, USA

  • Spaces for 250 Guests

  Upward Bound Camp sits on the historic Gates Schoolhouse property in Oregon's Santiam Canyon, at the site of the former Gates Elementary School. The schoolhouse itself was built in 1923 and served as the area's high school into the mid-1970s, later becoming a gathering place for local organizations and town events; it has been recognized by the Oregon State Historic Preservation Office as eligible for the National Register of Historic Places.

The Gates Schoolhouse is now the focus of an ongoing restoration project. Plans for the renovated building include a theater space for productions and community events, a commercial kitchen, and meeting spaces for trainings and gatherings, with an eye toward one day hosting weddings, graduations, and community celebrations alongside the camp's year-round programming.

  Elsinore Theatre

  170 High St SE, Salem, OR 97301, USA

  • Spaces for 212 Guests

  Opened on May 28, 1926 on the site of a former livery stable in downtown Salem, Oregon, the Elsinore Theatre was built in a style inspired by European castles, with a Gothic "nave and aisle" foyer design that the theatre describes as unique among theatres. It debuted as a silent film and vaudeville house, with an opening night screening of Cecil B. DeMille's "The Volga Boatman" accompanied by a Mighty Wurlitzer Organ. Over the decades the theatre's stage has hosted performers including Clark Gable, Ethel Barrymore, Harry Lauder, the John Philip Sousa Marine Band, Gregory Peck, and Itzhak Perlman. After falling into disrepair as a second-run movie house through the 1950s-70s, the Elsinore was revived by a preservation committee in the 1980s, converted into a performing arts venue in 1993, and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994. A $3.4 million "Return to Grandeur" restoration was completed in 2004, and the theatre celebrates its 100th anniversary in 2026. Today the Elsinore Theatre operates as a live event venue in the heart of downtown Salem, programming live music, comedy, dance, and holiday shows across genres, with restaurants within walking distance of the building.
