Share the Love at Oaks Park with a Lover’s Lane Plaque This Valentine’s Day 

 

PORTLAND, Ore. (Jan. 8, 2026) -- From first dates and family traditions to decades-long love stories, Oaks Park has long been a place where love takes center stage. This Valentine’s Day, the historic Portland destination is inviting the community to celebrate those connections through its “Lover’s Lane Plaque Campaign,” offering a heartfelt way to turn special moments into lasting memories. 

 

The campaign allows couples, families, and friends to commemorate meaningful relationships with a custom-engraved plaque permanently installed along Oaks Park’s beloved Lover’s Lane walkway. Each plaque serves as a “permanent love note,” honoring a special bond while supporting the preservation of Oaks Park and its iconic roller skating rink, the oldest roller rink in the country. 

 

“Whether it’s a first date, a 50th anniversary, or a family tradition passed down through generations, Oaks Park has always been a place where love shows up in many forms,” said an Oaks Park representative. “These plaques let people leave a piece of their story in a place that has meant so much to so many for more than a century.” 

 

For Valentine’s Day 2026, plaques ordered by January 24, 2026, will be installed before February 14, making them a one-of-a-kind Valentine’s gift that lasts far beyond a single day. The timeline allows Oaks Park staff time to design and share a personalized proof, receive approval, and complete professional manufacturing and installation. 

 

If the January 24 deadline is missed, there is still plenty of time to participate. The Lover’s Lane Plaque Campaign is an ongoing initiative, with plaques available year-round and installed on a rolling basis, perfect for anniversaries, birthdays, milestones, or just because. 

 

To take part, donors can visit OaksPark.com/love to customize their message and complete a tax-deductible donation through Oaks Park’s secure online form. Once the design proof is approved, Oaks Park takes care of the rest. 

 

For more than 100 years, Oaks Park has been a joyful, multi-generational destination where families gather, friends reconnect, and new love stories begin. The Lover’s Lane Plaques reflect that spirit of fun, connection, and shared memories and invite the community to help keep it going for generations to come. 

 

Campaign Details: 

  • Order deadline for Valentine’s Day installation: January 24, 2026 

  • Guaranteed installation by: February 14, 2026 

  • Ongoing campaign: Plaques available year-round with rolling installation 

  • Plaque includes: Custom engraving and permanent installation at Oaks Park
