The spirit of giving continues! You can still drop off your food donations at NeighborImpact bins located at Juniper Swim & Fitness Center, Larkspur Community Center, The Pavilion, and the BPRD Office until January 4. ✨

If you visit these locations, please bring your donations during their normal hours. Every little bit helps! Monetary donations are also welcome and can be made online at www.neighborimpact.org/host-a-food-drive/.

Heads up! A 62-acre pile burning project will begin in the north area of Shevlin Park on Monday, Jan. 5. A small informal parking area east of Aspen Hall called Cougar Rock will be closed throughout operations. All other areas of Shevlin Park will remain open during the forest health project.

Signage is in place, closing the parking area along Shevlin Park Road east of Aspen Hall for operations and equipment staging. The small parking area will remain closed after active operations for monitoring and mop up.

During the active burning period, nearby residents and park visitors will see and smell smoke. People are encouraged to keep their doors and windows closed during the burning and the evening following the burning to reduce impacts from smoke.

Contractors and district staff will monitor the area for several days following the burn. For visitor safety, district staff strongly encourage adherence to trail closures in and around burn operations as hotspots may persist.

More information on BPRD fire management is available at bendparksandrec.org/about/maintenance/fire-management/.
