Col. Summers Park

In October 2014, OPI partnered with Portland Parks Foundation and Portland Parks and Recreation as part of its annual Parke Diem event to convert an unused piece of blacktop in Col. Summers Park to a futsal court. This full-size futsal court is features freshly patched and seal coated asphalt, long-life court lines, fencing on 3 sides, full size goals, and shade from a massive sycamore tree to keep things cool.

OPI hopes that this $6,000 project will serve as a model for adding life to unused asphalt throughout our City's parks and schools. Projects like this can be deployed quickly with achievable fundraising.
