🌊 The OAP Trails Team is thrilled to announce the completion of the Short Beach Trail Rebuild Project — and it’s absolutely amazing! 🥾✨
This accomplishment was made possible through the incredible partnership of Oceanside Action Partnership, Trailkeepers of Oregon, Tillamook County Public Works, Netarts WEBS, Tillamook Coast Visitors Association, Oregon Parks and Recreation Department, and the Netarts-Oceanside Fire District.
The value of community collaboration couldn’t be clearer — working together really works! 💪
In total, over 1,700 volunteer hours were logged by more than 100 dedicated locals and Trailkeepers of Oregon volunteers — almost a perfect 50/50 split. What a team effort!
We invite everyone to come take a look at this heroic community achievement and enjoy the beauty of the rebuilt Short Beach Trail. ❤️
We can hardly wait for what is next...
