The idea is that teams will stay in the same hotel. Won't be perfect, but we'll get as close as we can. All of the hotels are within walking distance from each other and from the Portland Art Museum. One (Marriot Waterfront) is a bit farther out (where we have a big chunk of rooms) so we'll likely have transportation to/from the PAM from there. You can see all hotels here: https://mapsengine.google.com/map/u/0/viewer?mid=zGDglM1VcNwI.khD1s_r2QdO0.

==Friday night in Portland==
'''On Friday night in Portland we invite you to travel back to the Prohibition Era, a time of outlaws, innovators and those who found their own way of doing things.'''
We’ll come together to wrap up our week in style with closing talks, food, drink, music, dancing and more. 
Transportation from & to the hotels will start around 6pm and run until midnight.
Dress code?  That’s up to you.  Think of this like you would a big night out on the town — including great food, company and ending up at a night club with a live band and music to dance to, or perhaps a karaoke bar, or at a late night restaurant chatting into the wee hours with friends. Or all of the above. Above all else be yourself and bring your own personal style. 
There will be a little something for everyone — from live music to karaoke, dancing to lounging — with multiple themed rooms, music and experiences to suit different tastes.
* More details to follow in email.
* Karaoke Song List: [[File:Portland-karaoke.pdf]]
