Celebrated their 4th Arbor Month
The Parks & Recreation Department’s Special Events Team Division partnered
with the Hillsboro School District to provide an Arbor Day event at Orenco Woods Nature Park.
This event featured a free-flowing format; each grade level had one hour to engage with as
many activities as they found interesting alongside their teacher and chaperones.
The Orenco Elementary School attended the event with 465 students on-site, ranging from K-6 grade levels. This was the first field trip these
students have had in the past three years due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
