We at Preserve East Bend welcome anyone who is willing to help and has an interest in the preservation of our unique rural community and the overall quality of life in Bend. There is no doubt that Bend is growing and there will be change, but you can have a voice in that and perhaps help shape our future.

Through this effort, we have learned that Preserve East Bend, together with our neighbors in the Rickard group effort, have firmly landed on the radar screen of our elected officials, department heads, and decision-makers in Bend and Deschutes County. This a wonderful unintended consequence of our rapid response to the landfill project and has given us a unique opportunity to seize this moment of relevance. We have a seat at the table.
