Bohemia Mining Days

Celebrating the discovery of gold in the Bohemia Mountains, Cottage Grove celebrates its unique history over four days in July. For more than 50 years, this tradition provides family-friendly activities including live music, a kids zone, a saloon, a carnival, a Miners Dinner and Chuckwagon Breakfast. A highlight is the Slabtown vs. Lemati Feud featuring contests such as cherry pit spittin’, best 1800-era costume and beard, tug-o-war, pie eating, bounty hunting and more. Enjoy Bohemia-era living history demonstrations, gold panning, cultural presentations, parades and carnival rides.
