Number 3 … A dedication of the third completed Confluence Project site, the bird blind at the Sandy River Delta
August 1, 2008
Take a family-friendly one-mile walk to the completed elliptical bird blind on the quiet, reflective Sandy River Delta. This new sanctuary - rising among the trees at the water’s edge - is the third completed project for the Confluence Project. After our visit to the bird blind, we’ll hear remarks by artist Maya Lin and other participants, then cool off from the summer’s heat with an old-fashioned ice cream social.
Because parking is limited at Sandy River Delta, attendees are encouraged to park at Troutdale Airport (999 Frontage Rd., Troutdale). A shuttle bus will transport attendees to and from the park trailhead. Golf cart transportation will be available to attendees who are not able to walk the trail to the dedication site.
Attendees should allow one hour for parking, shuttling and then walking the trail to be on time for the 4:00 p.m. dedication.
Join us for this free public event.
