16th Annual "Spring Thing"

Spring is coming to Smith Rock and it is time to do it again!  Please help be a part of the 16th Annual Smith Rock “Spring Thing” volunteer day. This one-day event focuses on restoration projects to protect and enhance public lands in and around Smith Rock State Park.

Projects include: erosion control, trail improvement, grass and tree planting, trash cleanup, climbing route cleaning, & chalk removal.  At the end of the day we provide our volunteers with a full dinner, slide show, and a fun fund-raising auction and raffle.  All money raised goes directly to fund future events and purchase project supplies.
