Leave No Trace Spotlight: Mt. Tabor Park

Join Leave No Trace in Mt. Tabor Park, OR – May 9-11, 2024

Pinipili namin ang mga nominadong panlabas na espasyo na nangangailangan ng aming sama-samang pangangalaga at atensyon. Sa pamamagitan ng pagtatalaga sa kanila bilang mga Spotlight, hinihikayat namin ang lokal na komunidad na umunlad, makipagsanib-puwersa sa Leave No Trace, at gumawa ng makabuluhang epekto na maaaring muling pasiglahin at protektahan ang mga espesyal na lugar na ito kung saan tayo muling lumilikha, magsaya sa kumpanya ng isa't isa, at magpataas ng ating kalusugan pisikal, mental at emosyonal. 

Mt. Tabor Park has been selected as a 2024 Leave No Trace Spotlight. The Subaru/Leave No Trace Traveling Team will be at Mt. Tabor Park May 9-11, collaborating with hosts and partners on a variety of programs including stewardship projects, workshops, and community outreach.
