Last year, Woodlawn Park was taken over for a day with tents, music, entertainers, costumes, kids, games and informational booths in celebration of the City Repair Projects’ annual Earth Day Celebration. The celebration, which moves to a different neighborhood every year, will this year be at Overlook Park in North Portland on Saturday, April 19th.

On the morning of the celebration, there will also be a service project to benefit the community surrounding the Overlook Park area of North Portland. They will be working in concert with thousands of other volunteers around Oregon at over 100 work sites.

This information comes to us from Rebeca Siplak, one of our neighbors who was involved last year. “As a Woodlawn resident who participated in last year’s Earth Day celebration at Woodlawn Park and the service project for Woodlawn neighborhood” she says, “I want to invite you to represent our neighborhood at both of these events. For more information, please visit City Repair’s website or contact Bob New: EarthDay //at// CityRepair.org. Please contact me directly: RebecaSiplak //at// Comcast.net for more info regarding the service project.”
