September 2013 STAR Publishing, STAR The Hollywood Inc. H ServingStar North/Northeast Metro Portland Neighborhoods HNEWSNEWS H SEPTEMBER 2013 H Volume 31, Number 3 H Are you ready for a Challenge? Bicycle Transportation Alliance event promotes bike commuting By Jamie Caulley On a hot August evening, approximately 100 bicy- clists gathered over pints and panniers at Velo Cult bike shop, 1969 N.E. 42nd Ave., to celebrate the start of this month’s Bicycle Transportation Alliance (BTA) Bike Com- mute Challenge (BCC). Velo Cult, an avid supporter of the BTA, hosts a monthly happy hour for the non-profit group whose focus is promotion and advocacy of biking and bike-related issues throughout the state. September is traditionally a month consumed by kids going back to school and adults busily harvesting from their backyard gardens, yet the BTA believes it’s the ideal month to hold their largest event of the year. While other cities in the United States focus on similar challenges in May (National Bike month), the BTA chooses September with its historically dry days, warm daytime temperatures and crisp mornings, all of which help to make an easy transition for new bike commuters or seasoned commuters looking to increase their ride time. Stephanie Noll, deputy director of the BTA, states 2,000 of the 12,000 BCC participants last year identified themselves as new commuters. Of those participants, about 50 percent say they continued to ride more often after the BCC than they did previously. That is good news for the BTA and the success of the challenge whose primary pur- pose, as Noll explains, “is to get more folks riding bikes, more of the time.” Francine Ecova, BCC participant and regular bike commuter, explains that she participates because, “it’s fun, easy and gives me a bit of exercise.” The biggest intimidation factor for new commuters is Bike commuters gather at Velo Cult to have a pint and celebrate the start of the Bicycle Transportation Alliance’s believing that bike commuting will be too hard. “People Bike Commute Challenge. — Photo by Jamie Caulley who have not bike commuted before imagine themselves bike commuting along the same route that they drive or “Currently, we have all the basics.

The Museum, Opal School, and 3 the Museum Center for Learning inform each other in dynamic dialogue between informal, formal, and professional education. Opal School offers rich learning experiences and environments resulting from the practice of inquiry-based approaches through the arts and sciences. The Center studies how children learn in these environments, and helps to apply those approaches to exhibits and programs in the Museum. The result is an integrated, CONTENTS philosophically aligned approach based on playful inquiry— where adults and children learn together both in and out of school, and best practices are shared with educators worldwide through publications, workshops, and symposiums. STORIES Our integrated approach reached its most recent expression with the opening of Outdoor Adventure in April 2014. For years, 5 Opal School had used the adjacent Hoyt Arboretum as an outdoor classroom. The Center had studied how children interact with and learn in nature. That research was applied to transform 1.3 acres of inaccessible land adjacent to the Museum into an area that is neither park nor playground, but rather a carefully DONORS & designed nature learning environment for families with children of all ages and abilities.

  • Governor Kate Brown, President Peter Courtney and Speaker Tina Kotek Re: the COVID Outbreak in Oregon – Restaurant Recommendations for Immediate Action
    * FOR URGENT CONSIDERATION * November 15, 2020 To: Governor Kate Brown, President Peter Courtney and Speaker Tina Kotek Re: The COVID Outbreak in Oregon – Restaurant Recommendations for Immediate Action In March, when SARS-CoV-2 first made its presence known in Oregon, many of us closed our doors voluntarily to keep the public safe. We turned to you in search of support and guidance to navigate the crisis. Although our industry is one of the largest employers in the state - we employ nearly 9% of the workforce - our calls went unanswered. Now as our dining areas are once again ordered closed, we urgently need your attention ​ and support, without it over 75% of Oregon’s 10,456 bars and restaurants are in danger of closing ​ permanently. Restaurants and bars cannot survive with to-go operations only. A survey of independently owned restaurants indicates that the loss of indoor dining results in a revenue loss on average of 81.75% thus forcing closures and mass layoffs. Additionally, our businesses don’t operate like hardware stores, we can’t just flip a switch and walk away. Each time we close we lose perishable inventory and we have to maintain payroll to properly shut down the business. In March, closures resulted in payroll expenses and inventory loss on average of $40,000 per location. Here we are again, closing without a safety net, only this time it is worse. After eight months of operating with reduced capacity we have no cash reserves and are saddled with crippling debt. Those of us who were able to secure Payroll Protection Program funds, have exhausted them.

  • Portland, Oregon
    Portland, Oregon Hints for getting around town: • East and West are divided by the Willamette River. • North and South are divided by Burnside St. • North Portland (NoPo) is on the east side of the river though. • North of Burnside in the NW, the streets are alphabetical, so next is Couch, then Davis, Everett, Flanders, and so on. • The numbers often give you a clue to how many streets north/south you are – 100 for each block (e.g., 650 NW 10th Ave. is on 10th btw. Hoyt & Johnson (remember to start w/Burnside)), or if you are on a name street, the number will correspond with the cross street (e.g., 1250 NW Glisan will be on Glisan btw. 12th & 13th). Easiest in the NW*. • "Downtown" refers to a portion of SW within the boundaries of the Willamette River and I-405, and south of Burnside St. • If you are driving, note that there are a lot of one-way streets. • The Portland Streetcar (goes more North/South) and MAX Light Rail (two lines east/west, and north/south) are free all day, every day within the Free Rail Zone (formerly Fareless Square) that includes downtown (within boundaries of Willamette River, NW Irving, and I-405), the Rose Quarter and the Lloyd District. Look for the Free Rail Zone signs. • FOR PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION, GO TO THE TRIP PLANNER ON HTTP://TRIMET.ORG • TAXIS: Radio Cab = #503.227.1212, and Broadway Cab = #503.227.1234 • Many restaurants in Downtown, the Pearl district, and NW Portland are within walking distance of the Hilton Hotel or a short ride on the Portland Streetcar or MAX Light Rail.
