FYI: In 1885, a young man at the age of 9 years old came to Newberg to live with his aunt and uncle, the Minthorns. The young man remained in Newberg and made it his boyhood home. That young man’s name was Herbert Hoover, who later would become the 31st president of the United States. This historic home still stands and you can visit it on 115 South River Street on the north side of downtown. You can also visit Herbert Hoover Park right across the street and play Disc golf!

Community partners we love.
The greater Portland-area's only authentic original site-built 1953 drive-in Theatre. With very few drive-in movie theaters left, Newberg is lucky to still have one. It’s a place you can take the whole family and enjoy two movies for the price of one! The drive-in plays both new feature-films and old school classics. Open seasonally Friday through Sunday, spaces sell out quickly!
Chapters Books and Coffee is a cozy independent bookstore and coffee shop located in Newberg, Oregon. They sell new and used books - fiction, children and youth, travel, religion, self-help, cooking, sustainability and more!
They sell locally roasted coffee, and homemade ice cream by Cream Northwest!
Pulp & Circumstance’s name reflects our approach, a gift boutique carrying items worthy of a celebration. Located in a Victorian house, within the heart of the Oregon Wine Country, this shop is surrounded by natural splendor. Pulp & Circumstance strives to bring that glow inside with a bright and welcoming space. It is their goal to provide customers with great service and “fuss” when they shop online or visit the shop in downtown Newberg.
