365 Things to do in Portland #141: Division-Clinton Street Fair

The Division-Clinton Street Fair is tomorrow. In years past, The Divison-Clinton Street Fair has been a pretty fun time- especially with all the dancing on 26th and Clinton. Unfortunately, I’m going to miss this one tomorrow, but if you can make it, you should definitely check it out. if you’ve new to Portland and looking for an awesome neighborhood- I highly recommend  the  Clinton-Division area (Abernathy and Richmond neighborhoods). The Street Fair starts at 10:45 AM with a parade @50th and Division and goes until 5:00pm, then will be follow by dancing in the street @26th and Clinton until 9:00 PM.

Hammy’s Pizza is having a pizza eating contest at 1pm (for kids and adults). Bring your kids and watch them stuff their faces.  After watching the You Tube video from last years contest, I”m pretty sure   I would have won this one hands down!
