Get Outdoors Day 

This event celebrates the national Get Outdoors Day in Oregon and is sponsored by Greenbelt Land Trust and the Coalition of Oregon Land Trusts.

Oregon land trusts work to protect our rivers, farms, forests, wetlands, and wild places. Our land is not always easy to see or experience, but each acre benefits our diverse communities.  On Get Outdoors Day, we want you to experience these places, properties, and big open spaces.  Attend an event, bring friends, take pictures, and have fun outdoors! #GetOutdoorsOR
