What is Get Outdoors Day?
Every year the OSU Research Forests, OSU Extension Service, and Community Health Centers of Linn and Benton County hosts Get Outdoors Day in Peavy Arboretum. During this event, the forest brims with bilingual activities, families, and community groups – all coming together with the goal of getting people outside, enjoying community, and hopefully trying something new along the way (like catching a fish in Cronemiller Pond for the first time). We make sure to offer free transportation to the event to ensure that every family has a chance to take part in the fun.
Cada año, los Bosques de Estudio de OSU, Servicios Extensiones de OSU, y los Centros Comunitarios de los Condados Linn y Benton organizan Día Al Aire Libre en el Arboreto Peavy. Durante este evento, el bosque está lleno de actividades bilingües, familias, y grupos comunitarios, todos unidos con el objetivo de salir, disfrutar con la comunidad, y con suerte aprender algo nuevo. Nos aseguramos de ofrecer transporte gratuito al evento para que cada familia tenga la oportunidad de participar en la diversión.
