Help name the newest park in the district!

Submissions will be accepted until Monday, December 27, 2021 at 5 p.m.

North Clackamas Parks and Recreation District (NCPRD) is asking for community input on the naming of our newest park, which opened to the public in October 2020. The park is located at 17908 S.E. Addie St. in the heart of Jennings Lodge.

The 5.8-acre nature park is part of the larger Boardman Wetlands area, and is the result of a partnership between NCPRD and Oak Lodge Water Services District. This community gem features a nature play area, outdoor educational areas and a scenic boardwalk trail loop. Learn more about the project here.

Now through December 27, NCPRD is accepting recommendations for the park’s official name. The District Advisory Committee will review submitted names and take action to recommend a name for the park. The proposed name will then be forwarded to the NCPRD Board (Board of County Commissioners) for final approval.
