Willamette River
Revival
Sun. Aug 2, 12noon to 7pm

By Barbara Quinn
The Willamette River Revival is a free, one-
day community-based festival to celebrate and
reconnect with the lower Willamette River and
its imminent clean up. The Portland Harbor
Community Advisory Group, Cathedral Park
Neighborhood Assn & Portland Harbor Comm.
Coalition have joined forces to organize the
event. Info. will be offered through tabling by
environmental groups, science demos, story-
telling and cultural perspective sharing from
the native American community and other
ethnic groups. The event is strongly commu-
nity oriented with an emphasis on the river as
the commons and the need for safer, healthier
conditions for citizens and river-dependent an-
imals A central feature of the event is a tra-
ditional native American salmon bake hosted
by the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde
starting at noon. Tribal members will offer
drumming and cultural sharing about the ritu-
al and the river system. Later live music gets
underway with outstanding string bands, the
Puddletown Ramblers and Cascade Crescendo,
as well as other well known groups includ-
ing the rapper Decora. A beer garden will be
hosted by Occidental Brewery. There will be a
performance by the Aztec Dancers, a children’s
dance troupe from Hispanic tradition, native
American craft demos, food and drink vendors,
guided walks, storytelling and other activities.
