The 4th of July Fireworks are on the schedule and a permit is place for the display. Please be advised that the SPIT will be closed the afternoon of Wednesday, July 3rd and reopened by noon on Friday, July 5th. Parking is free on the waterfront on July 4th. There is no overnight camping. For more information go to: https://hoodriverfireworks.com/

KB4C (Kiteboard for Cancer) will be held Friday, Saturday, & Sunday, July 5-7 at the Event Site. They have rented the grass area however the parking lot will remain open for Pay-to-Park customers and passholders. Lot #1 is available for overflow parking. https://www.kb4c.org/

The next CGW2 Swap meet will be held on Saturday, July 6th in Lot #1. This is one of their main fundraisers so if you have any sporting gear hanging around your garage not getting used, or items that no longer spark joy, why not free up some space? A little “Marie Kondo” decluttering could bring joy to someone else. https://cgw2.org/events/

The Gorge Downwind Paddle Champs outrigger races start on Monday, July 8th and run through Saturday, July 13th. The event headquarters are in Stevenson and there are races of various lengths scheduled throughout the week. The main big race that impacts the waterfront is typically at the end of the week however that could change anytime due to wind conditions. The finish line for that race is at the Waterfront Park Swim Beach. The event is sold out with 850 participants signed up. https://www.gorgedownwindchamps.com/

The Port is planning on opening the Event Site restroom this weekend if we get a few more summer hires trained and ready to go. Now that school is out we are getting a few more applicants. If you know of anyone looking for work we still have some openings in our Facility Department for seasonal summer help: https://portofhoodriver.com/about-the-port/employment/ Wages range from $17 - $22 per hour. These are the folks that mow, weed whip, empty trash cans, and clean the restrooms. Weekends are required.

If you have any questions regarding parking on the Waterfront please check out the Port’s website: https://portofhoodriver.com/waterfront-recreation/waterfront-parking/
