Join us on June 5th as we celebrate Oregon State Parks Day and honor the 40th Anniversary of the creation of the Friends of Tryon Creek. This unique relationship has given our community the only all urban State Park where thousands come every year to learn and explore through the many excellent education programs, nature explorations and family events put on through the dedication of both the State and Friends Staff. Join us to learn more about state parks and the Friends and have ice cream and a piece of birthday cake as we celebrate looking forward to another 40 years of partnership and learning.
