Nadaka Nature ParkFor years, the plot of land tucked away in Gresham's Wilkes East neighborhood was forgotten.Source: The Oregonian, Nov 14, 2012 |
Those who noticed the forested 10 acres must have figured it was off limits. An 8-foot-tall fence topped with barbed wire enclosed the site, save for one small entrance. Few would have guessed this was public land, officially known as Nadaka Nature Park.
But in 2008, the right person with the right heart and a vision stumbled upon the park and set out to make it known and accessible.
Lee Dayfield of Gresham has since led an effort involving extensive community partnerships to give the park new life and purpose.

Gresham is a great community, with one of the most efficient local governments in Oregon.
But additional revenue is needed now to keep the community safe and vibrant and the City’s financial foundation stable. That’s why this fall your City Council will consider a monthly Police, Fire & Parks Fee of $7.50 – assessed to households
