PICNIC AND RODEO H
IN ESTACADA PARK
Several hundred people gathered
in beautiiul Estacada Park on Sun- ;
day to enjoy the pjpnic and rodeo
sponsored by the Longshoremen’s .
Union and Waterfront Workers of !
Portland.
In the afternoon a wild-west show I
or rodeo was staged under the su- I
pervision of Mr. Everett Wilson.
Several wild horses were ridden
very well and other stunts includ
ing a wild and furious potato race
was featured. "Red” Shaniko
seemed to be the popular rider of
the day.
In the evening a fine dance was
given in the pavilion with a fine
orchestra from Portland furnishing
the music, with a good crowd pres
ent.
Estacada Park is an ideal place
for affairs of this nature and, now,
since permission is given motorists
to drive their cars into the Park
there will no doubt be a number of
picnics of this sort before the sea
son is over.
