SUMMARY:AdvenTours: Tumalo Creek Scenic Hike
DESCRIPTION:Adventure: Wanderlust Tours is excited to bring more access to the outdoors by partnering with AdvenChair to help those with mobility challenges get into the outdoors and explore beautiful areas that initially may not seem accessible. With the AdvenChair off-road wheelchair and the incredible team of volunteers at AdvenChair\, we will experience a magnificent ecosystem filled with burgeoning flora and fauna\, spring migratory birds\, and more that find refuge and resources in Tumalo Creek. \nNaturalist Guided Experience: We will begin our adventure along the crystal clear waters of Tumalo Creek. Our route will take us through a section of Tumalo canyon where we will immerse ourselves in some of Central Oregon’s finest geologic features. This scenic area just outside Bend’s front door known as Shevlin Park was founded as a beacon of conservation. Early 1900’s Bend was almost exclusively a logging community and as many areas became heavily logged\, demand grew for a nearby area to be protected for recreation. In 1920\, Shevlin-Hixon Lumber Company\, under the guidance of Thomas W. Shevlin and Hugh O’Kane\, donated the land to the city of Bend with the stipulation that it be used for park purposes. This initial donation helped establish the park\, and it has been expanded over the years through additional land acquisitions. \nLearn more and register here!

SUMMARY:How to Make Decisions About Energy Investments for Affordable Housing
DESCRIPTION:Guidance on How to Make Decisions About Energy Investments for Affordable Housing\nJoin us on October 29 at the Azimuth 315 Apartments in Bend for a thoughtful discussion with local leader and Energy Trust Net Zero Fellow Rob Roy\, who will share replicable strategies for analyzing and making decisions about energy investments in commercial construction. Research is based on comparisons of modeled and operating performance of three Pacific Crest Affordable Housing projects in Bend. The event space\, Azimuth 315\, is one of the case studies featured in his research. \nThrough his research\, Rob evaluated the efficacy and replicability of Pacific Crest’s financial model\, which considers the long-term monetary impact of implementing various energy efficiency measures and renewable energy systems. Rob also developed a tool that other affordable housing developers and design teams can use to evaluate the impacts of energy efficiency measures and renewable energy systems over the lifespan of their projects. \nRob Roy has established himself as an industry leader by building some of the most energy-efficient affordable multifamily buildings in the nation. Rob led the research with funding from Energy Trust of Oregon’s Net Zero Fellowship. Don’t miss this opportunity to engage with Rob about the research and its applicability to your own work. \nAbout Net Zero Fellow Rob Roy \nRob Roy is a founding partner and co-manager of Pacific Crest Affordable Housing and has extensive experience with all facets of building and development\, from financing and construction to planning and land use. His 32 years of experience navigating complex public-private partnerships\, alongside his work as a three-time Olympic snowboarding coach\, have refined his collaboration\, negotiation and business skills.
