One of the most popular highlights of Portland’s Bastille Day festival is the Portland Waiters Race. Look for this year’s race on Saturday, July 12, 2014 at 2pm in Director Park in downtown Portland.
Waiters from throughout the city will compete for $1000 in cash prizes plus amazing prizes provided by the race sponsor, Nestlé Waters USA (Perrier).
The race involves a couple easy laps around the park (not running, but speed-walking). There are two divisions (men’s and women’s) and three winners in each division.
Waiters are encouraged to sign up online. Feel free to forward or share the link with a favorite waiter!
