Learn about investing in yourself at spring break hot spots
The Oregon State Treasury is helping Oregonians to invest in themselves, via a trio of programs that allow you to set aside money for higher education tuition and expenses, for retirement, and for costs that impact people with disabilities.
You can learn more about these savings option during Spring Break at three premier family destinations in Oregon. Visitors can get information — and free swag like fidget spinners — at the High Desert Museum in Bend, the Oregon Coast Aquarium in Newport and the Oregon Zoo in Portland.
In addition, you can win free admission tickets to the Oregon Zoo and to the High Desert Museum, sponsored by the College Savings Plan. The deadline to enter is Wednesday, March 21 at 11:59 p.m.
