Pine Nursery Park is a 159-acre community park located in northeast Bend. The park includes a sports field complex, natural areas, fishing pond, fitness trails, a 14-acre off-leash area for dogs, and many other recreation opportunities.
Artwork: The entrance to the park features a 22’ tall statue titled “Kickoff” by Gloria Bornstein, who describes the work as celebrating the start of the game and inspired by the high energy activities of the park. The form of the sculpture is inspired by the region’s volcanic landscape, in particular, local geographic landmark Pilot Butte.
The small geocache hidden here is part of the Bend Arts, Culture and Adventure GeoTour. There is an info card attached to the underside of the lid which contains the BACA GeoTour Secret Code needed to complete the GeoTour passport and collect a trackable GeoTour coin. BACA GeoTour Passports can be picked up at The Bulletin, 320 SW Upper Terrace Dr, Suite #200 Bend, Oregon, or at participating sponsor locations.
