Party in the Park is expanding its borders

On Saturday, July 30, The Tualatin Hills Park & Recreation District’s largest community event of the year will feature the addition of the Beaverton International Celebration.

For the first time, the City of Beaverton and the Park District are collaborating to dedicate an entire section of the event to a range of music, dance, art, crafts, food, traditional dress, social information, history and more from the area’s many cultural traditions.

Along with booths and informational tables, two stages will be set up on site with performances scheduled throughout the day at the HMT Recreation Complex, 158th and Walker Road, Beaverton. As always, admission to all activities will be free, with a wide array of entertainment and recreation. Along with some changes in programming, most activities now begin at noon and will end at 6 pm.

Traditional favorites will still be part of the day, including The Classic at T-Hills car show (entry fee), which kicks things off at 8:30 am and continues until 4 pm. The Family Triathlon (entry fee) follows at 10 am.

Food and beverages will be available for sale. Parking is free in the many lots at the 90-acre complex. Musical entertainment by the Fabulous Farelanes and Elvis impersonator Mark Stevenz will accompany the car show on Soccer Field 5.

Now in its sixth year, Party in the Park draws several thousand people throughout the day. For more information, including schedules of drop-in sports and other activities, visit thprd.org
