Volunteer Work Day
Saturday, October 17 th from 9am-12pm

The next volunteer work day is this Saturday, October 17 th from 9am-12pm.  Depending on the weather it may be our last for the year. We will be working on the Stroudwater Trail, rebuilding the bridge at the bottom of the stairs at the southern end of the trail. 

Directions: From downtown, follow Congress Street west toward Stroudwater Village. Stay on Congress  through the light at Westbrook St. Directly after the light , turn right at the "Rivers Edge" development. Turn right at the first driveway and park in the lot to the left.

Please RSVP to charlie@trails.org if you plan on participating.

EVENTS

We have two events each year which require many volunteers, in order for them to run smoothly. These are the “Happy Trails Big Bash & Silent Auction” in the Spring and the “Portland Trails 10K—Trail to Ale” in the Fall.

 

 
   

OUTREACH

Portland Trails receives many requests to attend employee health events and wellness fairs. At these events, we provide a table of Portland Trails information and someone represents Portland Trails and answers questions. These events can be any time of day, any day of the week—so we need lots of help! Volunteers are trained in advance to answer questions from the public.
