Agency: Friends of Tryon Creek State Park

Description: Come join us for an active morning at Tryon Creek State Park. On these days, we will assist with invasive species removal in this wonderful urban protected nature area.

The mission of Tryon Creek State Park is to conserve and enhance the natural resources, and promote the educational, interpretive and recreational programs of Tryon Creek State Park.

Please dress for the weather and bring your own water. Gloves will be provided.

This project is great for families with children 6 and up. All volunteers under the age of 15 will need to attend with a parent/guardian. If you are under 18, you will need to bring a Hands On waiver AND a Tryon Creek form signed by a Parent/Guardian. Both forms can be accessed by clicking on the links below.

Youth Volunteer Release Form


Tryon Creek Youth Waiver



Please bring both signed forms with you Saturday morning. If both forms are not filled out and signed the volunteer under 18 years older can not volunteer.

Join a group of volunteers on a done-in-a-day project led by a Hands On Greater Portland volunteer leader. No advance training or ongoing commitment required, so sign-up and participate in a project that fits your schedule! Need help signing up? Call 503-200-3355.
