National Trails Day Brushing Work Parties- Saturday, June 1st, 2024 (3 sites)

Forest Park Conservancy will be celebrating National Trails Day this year on Saturday, June 5th, and we’re inviting you to join!

We’ll be brushing the trails to cut back the excess growth along the trails. If we don’t brush the trails, the narrowing of the path for users accelerates erosion and creates less safe pathways for park users.

When: Saturday, June 5th, 9am to 12pm.

What:  We will be brushing trails throughout Forest Park.

Where: The location will be emailed to all participants the week of volunteering. Parking is limited. Carpooling encouraged!

Pack plenty of water and dress for all weather conditions. Long pants and sturdy, closed-toe shoes are required for your safety.  All training, tools and work gloves will be provided.

Additionally, FPC will continue to abide by the Oregon Health Authority guidelines, and we ask that all participants follow our policy guidelines found here. All participants will be asked to wear a mask and remain 6ft from any other participant group, and FPC will make every effort to provide materials to keep participants safe and healthy!
