PCC Community Fair set for fun
The Portland Community
College Community Fair will of­
fer something for everyone
through a staggering variety of
exciting and educational activi­
ties on Saturday, April 15 from
10 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., at the
Rock Creek Campus, just off
185th Ave.
The entertainment planned
promises not to disappoint.
There will be two performances
of “Maiden Pearl” presented by
the acclaimed Chinese Puppet
Theatre and the “Milagros
Bailadores” presentation will
explore Latin culture through
dance. Also featured will be
some of the best local high
school choirs and dance
troupes around the area, com­
bined with PCC’s Cascade
Campus Jazz Trio perfor­
mance.
For the young at heart, there
will be plenty of trucks and
planes to explore, and a horse-
drawn wagon to ride. Hillsboro
Aviation plans a ping-pong ball
drop from a helicopter with
prizes for all, and the PCC
cafeteria will serve food
throughout the day, amid
clowns, facepainters and jug­
glers. Don’t forget the Wash­
ington County Museum, locat­
ed on campus, which plans an
interactive program for adults
