Scenic Bikeway Open House at Camp Sherman, Feb. 24

The Oregon Parks and Recreation Department will hold a public open house to share information about the Metolius River Loops Scenic Bikeway. The Open House will be from 5:30 p.m.-6:45 p.m. Feb. 24 at the Camp Sherman Community Hall, 13025 Camp Sherman Road (also known as Forest Service Road 1419), in Camp Sherman. The open house will feature an overview of the Bikeway Program and the Metolius Loops Bikeway sign installation plan with the final Bikeway sign plan on display. The Bikeway sign plan has been revised to respond to comments and suggestions made by the public at a meeting held a year ago in Camp Sherman. This open house is held because of a request to update the Camp Sherman community. People are welcome to arrive any time during the open house. Representatives from the state Parks and Recreation Department and the U.S. Forest Service, Deschutes National Forest, will be there to answer questions.
