Portland Spirit Dinner Cruise
Sponsored by FamilyLearn & Access Generations
When people in Portland plan to celebrate a special event, they splurge to enjoy a dinner cruise along the Willamette River aboard the Portland Spirit (www.portlandspirit.com). On Saturday night, after three packed days of learning and networking, APH conference attendees and their guests will delight in relaxing and dining aboard the 150-foot yacht as dusk falls upon the spectacular scenery and the calm Willamette waters.
This special opportunity is possible in large part thanks to the generosity of two APH members—sponsors Neal Harmon of FamilyLearn, creators of iMemoryBook and pyxlin' (www.familylearn.com), and Marc Aaron Johnson of Access Generations, a developer of online photo and story libraries for families and personal historians since 2002 (www.accessgenerations.com).
The Portland Spirit offers an ideal venue with a view of the city at night, a quiet atmosphere for visiting, the ability to move from one table to another, quiet piano music in the background and a unique dining experience. The upper level seats 190 for dinner, the main level 120, and the top deck offers outdoor viewing—covered and uncovered—as well as a gift shop and the captain's wheelhouse. The cruise features fantastic Northwest cuisine served by gracious wait staff at candlelit tables. APH has reserved the upper level, which also features a full-service no-host bar, a piano and a dance floor.
Reaching the Portland Spirit is easy. We'll just hop aboard the MAX light rail line outside the hotel and arrive within a few blocks of the dock at Tom McCall Waterfront Park. Boarding starts at 6:30 pm with the cruise beginning at 7:00 pm and returning to the dock by 9:30 pm.
