EUGENE, Ore. – The Get There Challenge helps Oregonians drive less and use other transportation options more. Now in its 10th year, the event has helped reduce traffic and emissions across the state, making Oregon a better place to live, work, and play.
The Get There Challenge is happening Oct. 3 through Oct. 16, 2022. Anyone age 18 or older who lives and/or works in Oregon can join the Get There Challenge at any time, by visiting GetThereOregon.org.
To celebrate 10 years, the Get There Challenge will offer 10 different transportation options achievements that participants can unlock at GetThereOregon.org to earn points toward weekly and grand prize drawings. Achievements include logging trips, sharing your challenge story, optimizing your home office, and more.
Plus, grand prize winners will receive one of two $500 Visa cash cards or $1,500 toward a custom Bike Friday folding bike.
The Challenge is powered by Get There Connect, a trip planning and ride-matching tool. Get There is a program of the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT), promoted locally by Lane Council of Governments (LCOG). In partnership with other local sponsors, LCOG is proud to offer additional prize opportunities for Challenge participants who live in Lane County.
