Gleneden Beach is a quiet community just off of Highway 101, located five miles south of Lincoln City and five miles north of Depoe Bay on the beautiful Oregon coast. It’s a wonderful place to live, work and play.
Whether you’re a permanent resident, or a part-time resident, we welcome you to share our beautiful beaches, visit local resources, partake of some great food, and join us in a variety of fun activities.

Some things to note about coming activities at the Community Club–
September 17
September 17th at 6pm is education night and this month’s special guest is from the Oregon State Dept. of Financial Regulation in Salem. The topic will be the all-important one of Financial Planning for Disasters, and we’ll learn what our various insurance policies (like flood, earthquake and homeowner’s) REALLY cover and what they exclude after a natural disaster. In addition, we’ll learn how to prepare a home inventory that can be used to help receive applicable insurance benefits after a catastrophe. Game changer information with this presentation!
September 21
September 21 at 5:30pm is our Tailgate Potluck, so get your best team gear out of the closet to sport at this event. The club will provide hot dogs, chips and lemonade, and you can bring a side dish, salad or dessert. Please sign up for your dish . Sign up at what you’re bringing at https://www.PerfectPotluck.com/YKDW7374. This online service will help us get a good variety of dishes and not 8 potato salads. 🙂 Wear your favorite team gear to showoff your loyalties.
September 25
Rock Painting from 1-4pm. Paints, brushes and rocks provided, or bring your own stones. $5 per person.
September 26th
Game Night at 6:30pm. We’ve got lots of games to choose from, or bring your favorite to challenge someone.
It’s a busy month, but October has has even more events happening, so be prepared to join in the fun! As you’re doing your shopping in the coming weeks, note that we’ll be collecting Halloween candy at the October 6th Pancake Breakfast for our big Trunk or Treat event to be held on October 31st. You may remember that we had over 50 kids attend last year so we need candy to hand out to the little witches and goblins. There will be a container at the breakfast where you can put your candy donation. Much appreciated! Any extra candy will be donated to the food pantry.
It’s never too early to be thinking about how you might want to decorate your vehicle for Trunk or Treat, or what costume you want to wear to the Halloween party. These decisions take time and careful planning.
Enjoy the great weather as we slide into Fall!
It’s never too early to think about holiday presents, and the Community Club has a perfect one for your gift-giving needs–whether you’re gifting to someone 8 months old or 80+ years old. Check out Max–a five-foot-tall stuffed polar bear! And, you could win him. It’s easy as can be–just purchase your raffle tickets online, or come to the October and/or November Pancake Breakfasts or the Holiday Market to get your tickets. Max will be there, along with his caretaker, the famed “Bear-meister”. The more tickets you buy, the better chance you have of winning this adorable guy.
We’ll announce the winner at the November 23rd Holiday Market!
Note that your raffle ticket purchase helps the Community Club to keep offering fun events, education programs and to help maintain and improve the Community Hall–now 75 years old!
If you can’t think of anyone to give Max to this holiday season, you can always donate him to our November-December toy drive effort for needy children in our area. But first, you have to buy a ticket for your chance to win him! Buy your tickets here. The winner will be drawn at the Holiday Market on November 23.
Be a vendor at the Gleneden Beach Holiday Market on Nov. 23! All items must be handmade. Fill out and submit your application. {link to application}
