Portland / Green VOTE FOR PORTLAND! VOTE FOR SALMON!
Posted by Wm.™ Steven Humphrey on Wed, Mar 16, 2011 at 3:58 PM
Hey, you like Portland, right? And you like the idea of having clean watersheds and happy salmon spawning in our creeks, right? Then take literally one-and-a-half minutes to vote for Portland so we can receive a grant that will help promote and protect a salmon habitat running from the Willamette and up Johnson Creek in southeast. We're one of six finalists, and the only city west of the Mississippi to be in the running for a $30,000 grant from MillerCoors and River Network, and if we lose this money to North Carolina? I'm gonna plotz.
Here's a quick informational video about the project, and where the money will go.
Voting ends this Sunday, March 20th. So c'mon! Take a minute and VOTE PORTLAND! AND VOTE SALMON!
