Discover Your Northwest’s The Care for the Land Program is excited to host our second Trash Bash in celebration of National Public Lands Day! Join us for this community cleanup. This is a chance for neighbors, families, and friends to come together for a meaningful morning outdoors giving back to the forest we all love so much. All are welcome and no experience is required. Minors 12 years and older must be joined by a parent or guardian for the duration of the event.

By spending time together cleaning up our favorite places in the forest, the Trash Bash is about more than just picking up trash, it’s about building community, creating connections, and taking pride in our public lands and maintaining them so they can be enjoyed by all for generations to come.

All tools, supplies, and lunch will be provided. Due to the nature of the event and permitting, we are not able to allow dogs, please reach out to Christina if you require a disability related exception. Throughout the morning, volunteers will also have the opportunity to learn more about caring for our public lands in Central Oregon and simple ways to stay involved beyond the event.

We look forward to seeing you on Saturday, September 26th! Sign up: www.discovernw.org/volunteer.
