The Old St. Francis School, conveniently located in the center of downtown Bend, has undergone a transformation from 1936 Catholic schoolhouse to lively destination hotel complete with classrooms-turned-lodging rooms, a pub, brewery and bakery, a movie theater, private meeting and event space and a truly fantastic soaking pool that beckons day travelers, shoppers, hikers, skiers and snowboarders alike.

Ruby on ales is held in Bend, right in the center of Oregon. We hold the conference at The Old St. Francis School in a wonderful little gymnasium turned movie theater.

If you are flying to the conference you want to book your flight into Robert Fields in Redmond, Oregon (RDM).

There are shuttles, cabs and rental cars available at the airport. You may want to book your ride beforehand. The ride takes 15 - 20 minutes.

We suggest staying at the Phoenix Inn or McMenamins(the venue) if there are rooms. Links below!
