Stub Stewart will open July 8
The information below will be released to media outlets early tomorrow morning (June 13). Please note that you can make reservations beginning June 13 at 8 a.m.
Stub Stewart will open July 8
State and local officials are ready to celebrate the grand opening of Oregon's first new state park campground in more than 30 years. Stub Stewart State Park, in western Washington County, will officially open on Sunday July 8, 2007.
"This is momentous," says Tim Wood, Oregon Parks and Recreation Department Director. "Stub Stewart represents an unprecedented combination of hard work, unique land deals and community support."
The 1,654 acre park was created on timber land formerly owned by the Longview Fibre Company. A series of land exchanges between the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department, Oregon Department of Forestry, Washington County, Oregon Military Department, Oregon Department of State Lands and the Oregon Department of Transportation made the park possible.
The park includes:
. 15 miles of park trails for hiking, horseback riding and mountain biking through meadows and forests teeming with wildlife and native plants. Park trails connect to the 21-mile Banks-Vernonia trail, which links the communities of Banks, Buxton, Manning, Tophill and Vernonia.
. Stub Stewart Welcome Center, including registration check-in window for campers and an interpretive display area.
. Brooke Creek hike-in camp with 23 primitive sites, restrooms, a kitchen shelter and two common areas with fire rings. Rental is $6/night Oct-Apr, and $9/night May-Sept.
. Dairy Creek Camp West camp loop, with 43 full-hookup (water, sewer, electric) RV sites and 12 walk-in tent sites. RV sites rent for $18/night Oct-Apr, and $22/night May-Sept; tent sites are $13/night Oct-Apr, and $18/night May-Sept. A second camp loop with 35 more RV sites will open in early 2008.
. Mountain Dale Cabin Village with 15 rustic-style cabins (12, 1-room; 3, 2-room). Rustic cabins have lights, furnishings and heat, but campers bring their own bedding and cook outside the cabins. Rental is $39/night year-round.
. Hilltop Day-use Area offering a stunning panoramic view of the Coast range mountains with parking for 35 cars and 10-15 RVs, modern restrooms and a trailhead for the park's trail system. Day-visitors to the park pay $3 a day, or purchase a 12-month pass-good for all 26 state parks that charge a day-use fee-for $25 (a 24-month pass sells for $40).
. Clay Hill equestrian staging and day-use area, with a restroom, water and extra room for trailer parking.
. Hares Canyon Horse Camp, with 14 full hookup campsites, each with four-stall corrals ($18/night Oct-Apr, $22/night May-Sept), and two double-size full hookup sites with six-stall corrals ($31/night Oct-Apr, $40/night May-Sept). This is the only state park horse camp with RV hookup sites and a fully-accessible shower-restroom.
. 15 miles of park trails for hiking, horseback riding and mountain biking through meadows and forests teeming with wildlife and native plants. Park trails connect to the 21-mile Banks-Vernonia trail, which links the communities of Banks, Buxton, Manning, Tophill and Vernonia.

This is the only state park horse camp with RV hookup sites and a fully-accessible shower-restroom.
Many of the state park campgrounds and trails near Portland-Milo McIver near Estacada, Ainsworth in the Columbia Gorge, Champoeg in the Willamette Valley-are extremely busy in the summer. When Stub Stewart opens, the number of state park campsites within 35 miles of Portland will increase more than 40%.
"Stub Stewart adds the kind of camping and trails we need to serve Oregon's most populated region," says Wood. "Parks are important to the relaxed Oregon way of life and our economy, and Stub Stewart is within easy reach of millions of Oregonians."
Most of the funding for park construction-$14.5 million-came from the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department's share of the Oregon Lottery. Voters dedicated lottery funding to state parks in 1998 to help pay for maintenance, park development and local community recreation through grants. Stub Stewart construction was also supported with more than $2 million in federal money from the Land and Water Conservation Fund. Volunteers helped build key features such as the horse and hike-in camps. The park includes many accessible features-such as ramps and wheelchair-accessible picnic tables-designed to make the park easy to use.
Campers eager to visit Stub Stewart may now call 1-800-452-5687, Monday-Friday, 8 a.m.-7 p.m. to make campsite and cabin reservations for stays starting August 16 and later. Reservations are also available online at www.oregonstateparks.org. The park's campsites and cabins will be available on a first-come, first-served basis from July 8 to August 16.
The park will host its first event even before the official opening. Cycle Oregon will spend part of a day in the park on June 24 during its annual weekend ride. Registration for the weekend ride is still open; contact Cycle Oregon at www.cycleoregon.com, or call 800-292-5367 for registration information.
Portions of the park will open on a limited basis between now and July 8 as construction crews complete their work and leave the park. Visitors can receive updates on the status of the park-and download maps and other information-online at http://www.oregonstateparks.org/park_255.php . Up-to-date information on the park is also available through the park information line at 1-800-551-6949, Monday-Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Visitors who would like to see the park before the July 8 opening should call or check online first to find out if entry will be possible.

Let's see if I can sum up this story and the back-news relating to it... So a circular is going around about the Chinese government censoring. A financial writer sent an email regarding it. Yahoo! told the Chinese government. The Chinese government, in an effort to put an end to the rumors of censorship, sentenced the man to 10 years in prison. The man is now suing Yahoo! for it. Of course, the Chinese government censors all photos on Flickr.Bug or cheating? Worth $1million for detecting it.

Stub Stewart State Park
I'm sure some of you have seen the commercials about this... they always go by so fast, I thought I would gather some information for all of you... This all comes from the Oregon Parks & Recreations website.Opening June 2007, Stub Stewart State Park is the first full-service Oregon state park in more than 30 years!
Campers, hikers, horseback riders and bicyclists will find 1,654 acres of the lush rolling hills, forest and deep canyons so typical of the northern Willamette Valley. The Hilltop Overlook Day-Use Area offers vistas of the Pacific Coast Range. The terrain is hilly and forested. The dominant geographical feature, Hares Canyon, runs the length of the park.
***Where is the park located?***
On the east side of Oregon 47, four miles north of the U.S. 26-Hwy. 47 intersection. The park is 31 miles west of Portland in Washington County.
| Reservations |
| Stub Stewart likely will open as a first-come, first-served park. Reservations for late summer and beyond will begin in mid-June. Look for an announcement later this spring with the exact date and more details. |
