Good morning, this is your Bend Local Frequency for Thursday, November 27, 2025.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone in Central Oregon! We've got a great day ahead for the holiday, though if you're heading out early this morning, keep in mind there's a Dense Fog Advisory in effect until 10 AM, so take it slow on those roads.

Speaking of today, there's plenty happening to keep you busy if you're not settled in with family just yet. The Redmond Turkey Trot is happening this morning for anyone looking to work up an appetite before the feast. If you'd rather skip the running, the Great Hall in Sunriver is hosting a bountiful Thanksgiving buffet throughout the day, so that's a great option if you're dining out this year.

For those looking for evening entertainment, Ultimate Scavenger Bend is running today, so if you've got the family in the mood for some friendly competition, that could be a fun way to spend part of your holiday. Game Night at the Canteen is also happening from 6 to 10 PM if you want to wind down your evening with some casual gaming and community vibes.

Looking ahead to this weekend, things are really ramping up around here. The Three Sisters Lions Club is launching its 14th annual Holiday Faire starting tomorrow, November 28th, running all the way through December 20th. It's in a new location this year on South Cedar Street behind High Camp Taphouse in Sisters. They've got 16 local vendors selling everything from handcrafted wood cutting boards and jewelry to homemade jams and crochet animals. A portion of the proceeds goes toward helping folks in Sisters with sight and hearing impairments. That's a wonderful way to get your holiday shopping done while supporting a good cause.

If you're looking to get festive this weekend, there are several holiday celebrations happening around the region. The Annual Tree Lighting Ceremony and the 36th Annual Starlight Parade and Tree Lighting Celebration are both happening on November 28th, so there's plenty of holiday spirit to soak up.

And if you're planning a trip to the coast, the Annual Holiday Lights at Shore Acres State Park are sparkling again this season, running through December 31st. It's a beautiful way to experience the magic of the holidays.

So whether you're gathering with loved ones today or gearing up for the weekend festivities, Central Oregon has something special to offer. Stay safe out there this morning with that fog, and enjoy your Thanksgiving.

This has been Bend Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
