HOOD RIVER — The second Indian Creek Trail Poetry Walk will launch on April 1 with a Poetry Reading and slideshow at the Hood River County Library from 6-8 p.m. The reading is free and open to the public.

The Poetry Walk will exhibit 20 nature-themed poems at intervals along the Indian Creek Trail, crossing through the town of Hood River for 2.7 miles. At the April 1 launch, local poets will read their poems, which were juried and selected especially for this year’s installation.
