East Hill Church in Gresham participated in a cleanup at Nadaka Nature Park on Saturday, August 23, 2014. We had 25 volunteers from the church and neighborhood who worked a total of 95 hours. These hours are important for our matching grants. East Hill provided food and drinks for all the volunteers.
The future community garden was weeded and volunteers worked on the new trail thru the woods from the Pine Square Apartments which was needed due to construction.
