Bridge Tour and homework due 5/22

Homework due 5/22


Dear Families,

We are all very excited for our bridge tour that will be happening on Tuesday. Here is some information from the tour organizer:

I will begin the tour with a discussion of Portland's history as it relates to bridges. We will plan to walk over the Broadway Bridge, and then stop at Union Station for a snack and rest room break. We will continue, walking over the Union Station Pedestrian Bridge to McCormick Pier and then we will discuss the Steel Bridge, before walking over the lower level.

We will plan to have lunch on the Eastbank Esplanade, and then we'll travel along the Esplansade to OMSI for a rest room break. From there, we will be able to see the Tilikum Crossing, Ross Island and Marquam Bridges. We will return to the west side via the Hawthorne Bridge. I will then lead the students to Bus 17. They will see "Portlandia" before heading back.

It should be a fun and informative day.

As a reminder, please arrive at 8:15 am so we can get to Bus 17 and leave by 8:25!
