Prepare for #ELGL14 by learning about who is attending. Find out if you’ll be surrounded by soft talkers, loud eaters, and finger biters or whether you’ll be surrounded by the best in local government.

During your time in Portland for #ELGL14, how do you plan on “Keeping Portland Weird?”
Arriving on a unicycle while dressed as Darth Vader? Or maybe my husband can make some money for us by playing guitar on the street corner?
Just kidding…I’ll probably just try to support the local funky businesses so that they may continue keeping Portland weird in my absence.
