We're really excited for all of the kids going back to school, but we are already missing our summer youth crew. On their last day, I asked them what their favorite part was, fully expecting to hear a specific park, or activity. Instead, their favorite part was us teaching them, and trusting them to properly use string trimmers. That was a cool moment, because those skills matter.

Pictured here was our final week. Trail work at Orchard Heights and Straub Nature Trail, and Bush Park near the Rhody Hillside.

It's that time again! Stop by, shop plants, and support Bush Park 🌹🐝

Ended last week on a high note!
Watching car, after car, after car, drive in and park at Cascade had me wondering if I was going to have enough supplies, and that's not a bad feeling to have! Instead, I was amazed. Amazed that around 50 people spent Friday morning volunteering to litter pick, and be a positive presence in an area that needs help.
It really takes a village, and this is a good one to be a part of.

It started with "Hey Amanda, we pulled some thistle" and ended with "Hey Amanda, we pulled thistle AND ivy"! and I'm here for it. These are good kids, led by an awesome organization, out doing amazing things.
Thank you for spending your Saturday morning volunteering at Woodmansee Park. You're rockstars!

Prepping, sanding, and painting oh my! This group does not shy away from hard work.

Today was way more than litter picking. Today was about getting out, meeting new people, and doing a little good for your community.
Every piece of garbage that is picked up, is one less that makes it to our waterways, in the bellies of our wildlife, or caught up in our community spaces. You made a difference today! Thank you all so much and I'm excited to see where we go in August.

Another feel good post to send you into the weekend 🐝
Solve came to town and supported a Pick It Up, Salem event and together, volunteers picked up roughly 600 pounds of garbage. Every event like this is a great step in the right direction for Cascade Park. Flowers are blooming, osprey are flying around, and folks were fishing. It was really great to see.
If you're looking for a new trail to explore, go check out Cascade and walk around Walter Wirth Lake. It's beautiful!
