Volunteers organized by the Northwest Trail Alliance have already put in many hours of work over this past week to shape and create a new pump track at Ventura Park in East Portland. The project will be our city’s first such facility and the NWTA has officially partnered with the Portland Parks & Recreation to make it happen.
With the initial layout work completed, the NWTA now needs more volunteers. They’ve invited the public to join them for a work party and meet-and-greet event this Friday from 4:00 – 8:00 pm.
“Bring a shovel, wheelbarrow, or just some muscle and be a part of this “ground breaking” project!” says the NWTA’s website.
