On this three-mile walk, we’ll check out Christmas trees at Pioneer Place, Pioneer Square, and the Heathman Hotel and all the holiday lights on Broadway. Then we will head down to the Riverplace Hotel and follow paths to “The Groaning Board,” a South Waterfront Pub, for your choice of Happy Hour or dinner. After dinner we will walk a short distance to the river where we can sit on park benches or stroll the waterfront to watch the Christmas Ship Parade (scheduled to leave the Riverplace Marina at 7:00 PM, weather permitting). After the parade, we will catch the B Trolley to the 7th and Holladay MAX station near the Lloyd Center and then board the Blue Line back to Gresham. Bring a flashlight, camera, water, and snacks. Wear bright clothing and comfortable walking shoes. Please purchase your “All Day” MAX ticket in advance of getting to the City Hall platform so that we can validate tickets and leave on time. Your “All Day” MAX ticket is also valid on the Portland trolley lines.
