OPRD gives more than $4 million annually to Oregon communities for outdoor recreation projects. This amounts to more than $25 million in grants across the state since 1999. The grants are funded from voter-awarded Lottery money.
You probably have a local government grant funded project in your community - you might have even been there. Examples include The Dalles Riverfront trail, Doc Griffin Park playground in Jacksonville, and the Settlemier Skatepark in Woodburn.
