Attention, Clackamas County! Help your community design the next parks and natural areas in your neighborhood.

Join Metro’s community design advocate program and get paid to help your community imagine, design and vote for parks and nature projects in Clackamas County.

Metro purchased 553 acres along the Clackamas River and Eagle Creek. The land includes the Eagle Creek Golf Course, which has been on the market since 2021. The $6.4 million purchase was possible thanks to voters choosing to invest in nature by passing the 2019 Parks and Nature bond. https://t.co/Q2B0BUXgU1

Heavy snow & ice mean a higher risk of falling branches—especially near power lines. Avoid parking under trees, watch for weakened limbs, & keep flashlights, batteries, and blankets on hand. Stay informed with local forecasts & look out for each other!
