Summer 2019
We've just wrapped up our free Summer 2019 programming and are proud to report that we were able to reach roughly 800 kids and parents (some on a repeat basis) in Portland's parks over a six-week period. We logged an amazing 460 volunteer hours in June and July alone. Thank you to our supporters and partners, Portland Parks and Recreation, Portland Parks Foundation, Metro and EMSWCD. We look forward to reaching more kids on more days and at more parks in Summer 2020.
