Remember  those days when Dropping Timber would update regularly with some half decent original content. We don’t, today we went to the Timbers training facility under construction in Beaverton just off HWY 217 and snapped a few pictures. The site is impressive with a large amount of indoor and outdoor space for the team. Almost a year ago we brought you pictures from the site after the facility location was first announced.

January 25, 2011 – Timbers Training Center to be built in Beaverton

The training site is very near completion.  I imagine turf real & fake will be unrolled within a few weeks.

We are a great football club and we boast a good number of websites that honor that fact. The first season of MLS brought us an explosion in Timbers media in many forms for many tastes.  We would like to list a few of the sites that you may or may not heard of in organized super random list.

We can all hope that we will see even more Timbers media in our second season of MLS.
