From The Rose Festival:
The Rose Festival, in partnership with the Portland Marathon, extends a big thank you to Beaverton Mayor Denny Doyle and the great City of Beaverton, including the Beaverton Police, Beaverton School District, and Tualatin Hills Parks & Recreation District for their tremendous support of this sunny Sunday morning race. The Rose Festival Half Marathon is also supported by Kuni Lexus of Portland, Crunch Fitness, The Oregonian, FOX12, Alpha Media, and Nike.
The Portland Rose Festival is one of the first signs of summer. People come from far and wide to revel in the variety of culturally rich events happening during the months of May and June. Whether you are craving cotton candy and a spin on the CityFair Ferris wheel, want to dance your cares away at a RoZone Concert, or bask in the sun as amazing, all-floral floats drift through downtown in the Grand Floral Parade, there is an event for festival lovers of any age.
