Nice mash up of March! PDX has some great foodie events! What organization coordinates those? Chamber of Commerce? Downtown Association? Do all participants share in marketing costs? Are these held during traditionally slow periods? Good luck on the health challenges.
Thanks, Bruce. Travel Portland organizes PDX Dining Month. Travel Portland is primarily funded by visitors through taxes and assessments on overnight stays. The Portland Mercury organized PDX Sandwich Week. Travel Portland pitches in, and there is some revenue from the title sponsor (this year, the title sponsor was Jim Beam). I believe the restaurants may also pay a small fee to be listed.
Thanks for the support on the health issues! It means a lot!
