ADOPT A TRAIL

Donations contributed to this fund support the maintenance, enhancements, and expansion of trails in Eagle Creek Park.

HOW IT WORKS

The trails in Eagle Creek are like the backbone of the park.  Without them, the grandeur, scale, and offerings of this park would suffer.

Eagle Creek relies on donations from people like you for things like maintenance, improvements, and even expansions.

A recent example of expansion is the West Side Trails – opening up large areas for hiking, walking, and nature viewing.

Your help is needed and appreciated!

WHY ADOPT A TRAIL?

Our Adopt A Raptor program is a restricted fund for the Eagle Creek Park Ornithology Center – meaning the funds can only be used for that facility. 

Our Adopt A Critter program is also a restricted fund for the Eagle Creek Park Earth Discovery Center. 

Adopt A Trail funds are unrestricted funds, and can be used where ever they are needed throughout Eagle Creek Park!

Projects like these are made possible by our members and donors.
