Join Portland Parks and Recreation and Friends of Marquam Nature Park for a restoration work party in Marquam Nature Park.
It's fun, close-in, accessible, and important work, and it gives you an opportunity to give back to the parks system that is host to so many of our wonderful geocaching excursions.
Plus, it's a chance to meet new geocaching friends, all while earning a sweet, new souvenir for your geocaching profile!
