www.PortlandFamilyFun.com has been created to benefit the families of the Portland, Oregon area. It is full of FREE and Cheap activities to do with your family. I haven't had the time to update much of the page, as I once did. But, I still do add information periodically. Subscribe by email for updates!
We all know this has been the most unusual summer! And with so much unemployment or underemployment, finding money for food can be tough. In Oregon, anyone under the age of 18 qualifies for free lunch 5 days a week, with no registration or proof of income. Visit www.SummerFoodOregon.org for details on how to find locations for pick up.
This year school districts will still be providing FREE lunches for kids, even though they may not be meeting in person for class. Many districts have increased the income limits for students who can receive FREE lunch. Please check your school district page for more information on that. Many districts are still employing their bus drivers by having them drive their routes and passing out lunches a couple of days per week. (Enough food for 5 days.)
will be continuously updated throughout the summer. Keep checking back when you need something fun to do!!!

Okay, okay! I know it's not technically summer for a while yet, and today's rain showers sure didn't make it feel like we are right edge of the good ol' summertime, but we really are! I have a LOT of work to do this weekend to start updating the calendar and summer page. Until that is done, remember not to miss all of the Rose Festival events listed in the last post and on the 
, and the Multnomah County Fair this weekend at Oaks Park. It looks like they have a lot of interesting exhibits and events this year to try and lure you away from the City Fair downtown. Free admission as well! They are having Pig Races, Wiener Dog Races, Petting Zoos, Exotic Animal Photo Opportunities, typical fair fare, and of course rides and roller skating at the Oaks.
Oh yes! It's that time of year again, Rose Festival Time. Parading around in the day and night, the smell of corn dogs and fried Twinkies, people floating around on dragon and milk carton boats, kids skipping school to go to Hollywood, race cars, balloon races, High School Royalty, fireworks, costumed runners, meet the fleet (How you doin'?), white suits, and Roses, Roses, Roses.
