On Thursday, May 7, over 500 Chamber members gathered in sunny downtown Portland to run, walk, compete, and connect at the sixth annual Rose City 5K, presented by Nike.
The Rose City 5K is a beloved annual tradition for Portland’s business community, bringing employers and professionals together for fun, fitness, and friendly competition. With a route along the beautiful downtown waterfront and a post-run party at Portland’s World Trade Center, it is the premier opportunity for corporate team building and to show your pride for the city that we love.
Thank you to everyone who participated and helped make this year’s event a success.
Thank you, as well, to our presenting sponsor, Nike, for their ongoing support of the Portland Metro Chamber Rose City 5K!
