The Joy of Sport Program

The Oregon Sports Hall of Fame and Museum launched the Joy of Sport Program during the 1999-2000 school year and qualifying schools and programs have enthusiastically received the program. Many schools have limited budgets for activities outside of the classroom and this is especially true for schools serving low-income families. Hundreds of children who might not otherwise be able to visit the Hall of Fame have been able to come due to the generosity of corporate and individual donors.
