The event is at Colonel Summers Park, located at SE Belmont and 20th. Many of us live in this neighborhood and there will be space available in addition to the hotel options. Yes the park is near public transport. It's a central location in SE Portland, sandwiched in between Hawthorne and Belmont which both run active bus lines. There's no host hotel yet. I just finished a couple important tasks with the parks & recreation people, so this is next on the list. And yes, I can tell you're already excited.C-Fan wrote: What's the park's address?

I just imagined you having a heated argument with Ron Swanson on the phone, slamming down the receiver in anger, and then methodically placing a "check" next to that item on your checklist on a notepad.cd wrote:I just finished a couple important tasks with the parks & recreation people,
Mark, you can count on staying with one of us. We will be able to offer a good amount of crash space to those who need it.
For anyone getting a hotel room, two close ones are Jupiter Hotel and Eastside Lodge. Jupiter is the nicer of the two starting at about $130/night. Eastside Lounge is a standard cheap motel at about $75/night. They're a block from each other and about a mile from the park.
If lots of people are getting hotel rooms, I can look into group rates at either of these places but we're guessing most people will want crash space.
