You're all wrong - You're coming to Oregon in July. Blue jeans (faded, 
ripped ok, unless you're going to be visiting Powell's Books or any one 
of the McMinniman's establishments - at least make sure they're clean 
then) , T shirt or if  it gets cold, a long sleeve flannel shirt. 
Overalls are ok, but real locals prefer the stagged pants with Stihl 
chainsaw orange suspenders. Just remember NOT to wear your "corks" 
(caulk boots) into most establishments as you'll be asked to leave or at 
least take them off.

Some last minute schedule changes for "unofficial" events -

Barb Sizemore Forest Slug Hunt      moved earlier to 6 am (when the best 
slugs are out)

Walter Carter/ Lon Wall Log rolling on the Columbia - same time as before

Gary Baldwin's  All Northwest Snipe Hunt   - originally scheduled for 
midnight, moved to 1:30 am due a change in state Snipe Hunting 
regulations. Also remember that your limit is 27 Snipes - that's down 
from last years'  45.

Tonya Harding Hubcap Toss -  Same time as previously scheduled unless 
she is incarcerated again.

And one new event to add!
Oregon Logging Supply's Sawdust Eating contest!      Noon on the promenade.
