Marcola is an unincorporated community in Lane County, Oregon, United States, northeast of Springfield on the Mohawk River.
The post office at this location was established in 1876 and originally called “Isabel” for early settler Isabel Applegate. About 1900, a railroad was built through the Mohawk Valley and a station named Marcola was established near the post office. Marcola was a name made up to honor Mary Cole, the wife of the town’s founder, Columbus Cole. In 1901, the post office name was changed to agree with the name of the station.
In 1900 there was a community of Japanese people in Marcola who had come to help construct the Southern Pacific railroad line that was built into the Mohawk Valley to help the local lumber mills ship their timber.
The 1938 National Register of Historic Places listed Earnest Bridge, a covered bridge in the Marcola area. The bridge was featured in the 1965 James Stewart film Shenandoah.

Skateboarding is a leisure activity, a work of art, or a method of transportation. Skateboarding has been designed and influenced by many skateboarders throughout the years. A 2023 survey and study by American Sports Data uncovered there are 18.5 million skateboarders in the world. 85 percent of skateboarders polled who had used a skateboard in the previous year were under the age of 18, and 74 percent were male. Those numbers have doubled since then. In the coming years the actual locations of skate parks have more than tripled making it more accessible as privately owned parks and indoor parks are becoming a reality.
