Meeting Highlights
Amateur Radio Emergency Service
In the event of a catastrophic disaster when the infrastructure in Lake Oswego (LO) and in Waluga Neighborhood is so severely damaged is the only way we have to communicate with our neighbors and the “outside world” is with two- way radios? Alas! There is another type of radio service available where the operators will be doing double duty to insure that the City has reliable back up communication system. Lake Oswego is fortunate to have an active amateur radio emergency service program. One licensed member is our own E.P. coordinator in Trillium Woods, Chris Battista. He will be sharing with us the basics of the radios, the amateur radio services in LO and explain how this service will be vital to our neighborhood during a disaster.

“Free the Trees” in West Waluga Park – March 5, 2016

Ivy PullersOur last ivy pull in West Waluga was a huge success. Now we’re moving onto the northwest corner of the park. It’s on a hillside, so be sure to wear good hiking shoes.

Saturday March 5th, 2016

Join Friends of Waluga Park as we tackle the creeping ivy and invasive species in this expansive park.  Blue herons, eagles, raccoons and deer are just a few of the species that have been seen in the park… who knows what you may see!

Please wear shoes that are good for uneven ground, and bring gloves and water to drink. Loppers and clippers are also helpful. Small children and pets are not recommended.

Children under 18 must have a parent or guardian sign the Volunteer Release.

We’ll meet at the West Waluga parking lot. Stay as long as you like. Please help “Free the Trees!
