Parade Location

Portland, Oregon and the Pacific Northwest are among the most popular vacation destinations in the United States.  Nowhere else can you find, all within convenient distances, an attractive metropolitan area with exceptional sightseeing, shopping, restaurants and attractions, towering mountains, old growth primeval forests, an active volcano, an unparalleled coastline, high deserts, wilderness, rivers, lakes, world class fishing and hunting, and an amazing number of lightly traveled roads that seem to have been designed specifically for Porsches and their enthusiast drivers.

Red Lion on the River

The center of Parade activities will be the Red Lion Hotel, located on an island in the middle of the Columbia River, which separates Oregon and Washington.  Recognizable as the site of the previous two Portland Parades, an extensive remodel is under way, and we will enjoy fresh, well-appointed rooms offered to us at very attractive room rates.  Not to mention acres of free parking, very attractive grounds, and nice views of the Columbia River and the State of Washington.  We will be booking the entire hotel, assuring that the Porsche Club theme and atmosphere will permeate every square inch of the facility for the entire length of Parade.

The Red Lion is conveniently located for our purposes.  It is about about two minutes away from the Heron Lakes Golf Course, the site of the Parade Concours, and Portland International Raceway, site of our track events.
