Be a Superhero – Support Music Education!

EVENT: This is an all age charity event supporting music education in Portland Schools, as well as grants for college continuation: visit OMHOF.org. We’re back and now downtown. Thank all of you who support music education and came out last year. Get ready to build teams of four or two and challenge others for the greatest power in the universe. You can buy or create your own costume. We offer discounts for teams of 4 and a couple (2). Who is faster, stronger, or which group outdoes the other DC, Dark Horse or Marvel? Who has the ultimate superpowers!!

COURSE: The course runs along the paved scenic esplanade loop downtown – we offer a 2K 5K 10K and Kid’s Fun Walk. Our start and finish venue is Paddy’s (all age venue) who will open early just for this event – we kick off the run one block away. The light rail actually drops you off one block from Paddy’s. The huge after party is also at Paddy’s. If you’d like to volunteer email us: stumptownevents@gmail.com FYI this takes a village, so volunteers lead into admin and so on. We are extremely grateful for everyone’s kindness and help to make this a staple event in Portland.

CHARITY: By attending you are a superhero supporting music education in Portland Schools. By inviting others we are humbled. We thank the Portland School District for their support. The charity is OMHOF.org as they support music education in Portland Schools, as well as offer grants to college.
