Community Picnic is Monday at Providence Park
Annual picnic hosted by Timbers and Thorns soccer teams is part of Goose Hollow Days, a summer neighborhood celebration
Meet your neighbors at the annual Goose Hollow community picnic tonight, Aug. 3. The annual event will be held on the Providence Park East Vista Deck on the stadium’s top floor.
People can expect to mingle with the members of the Timbers and Thorns teams and pick up Goose Hollow swag, all while admiring the Portland skyline.
The picnic is part of Goose Hollow Days, a summer’s long celebration of the history and life of Goose Hollow.
As Goose Hollow’s Tracy J. Prince told the NW Examiner, the Timbers have taken possession of the bronze Goose statue that once graced the King’s Hill light rail stop at Southwest 18th and Jefferson streets. TriMet decommissioned the station in 2020, but the goose will find a permanent roost on the Southwest corner of Providence Park.
Mark your calendars for the Vista Bridge Centennial Street Festival, an all day celebration happening on Aug. 30, 11 a.m.-4 pm.
Onward, Rose City.
I'm so grateful.to hear about community events in our town.
