Seeking Volunteers - Locking/Unlocking the ADA Portable Toilet at Arbor Lodge Park
Have you used the ADA portable toilet at Arbor Lodge Park? While the park restrooms are locked for the winter (the building is not winterized), the Arbor Lodge Neighborhood Association provides this for the neighborhood.
If you believe that having this portable toilet is important, we would love your help. Portland Parks and Recreation (PP&R) would like it to be locked up each night and we need volunteers to help with that. The door needs to be unlocked every morning by about 9am and then locked at about sunset every evening. It is a simple combination lock, so no key is required. Once you know the code, you can easily help us lock or unlock it!
Our December volunteers have done this for about 30 days. Can you step in to help for a week, 2 weeks or for a month? If so, please let us know and we'll share the lock combination with you.
Thank you for considering! Everyone in the neighborhood will thank you too!

Update: December 8th 2020
- SEEKING VOLUNTEERS -
The park restrooms at Arbor Lodge Park are locked from November 15 - March 15 because the buildings do not have winterized plumbing. The neighborhood association provides the ADA portable toilet for neighbors during this time.
We are seeking neighborhood volunteers to unlock the ADA portable toilet in the morning and lock it at night. It needs to be unlocked at about 9am every morning and then locked around sunset.
It is a combo lock so there is no need for a key.
Please let us know if you would be interested in volunteering to help by emailing: outreach@arborlodgeneighborhood.com
Thank you!

WooHoo!
We asked and you gave! At this point the Chief Joseph School backpack program has $1,500 to buy gift cards and other needed shelf stable foods for their food pantry. THANK YOU ARBOR LODGE. You just proved again what a great, wonderful neighborhood we live in.
If you haven't had your chance to donate, here is the link:
www.chiefjosephschool.org/pto/backpack
Funds donated help buy gift cards for food insecure kids over the winter school break, and to add to shelf stable foods to help these same kids through the school year with twice a month food delivery right to their homes.
Thank you again everyone in Arbor Lodge!
