<div> </div>
<div>Crawlers can tour some of the facilities and get a glimpse of where all these treasures are stored, see how Portland has changed over the years through photos and maps, and touch artifacts ranging from police dockets dating back to the late 1800s to medical
artifacts from OHSU (maybe even a skull). Join in on fun family activities that connect you to our rich history and learn how and where to do your own research. Remember: you don’t have to be a history scholar to be interested in history, or to do research!
All of the participating archives are open to anyone with an interest in history. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>As you crawl from site to site, make sure you get your free “passport” stamped at each location. A fully stamped passport gets you into a drawing for items donated by participating archives. The drawing takes place at the After Party at <a href="http://www.mcmenamins.com/events/search/Movie?location_id=63"><font color="#0000FF"><u>McMenamins</u></font></a><a href="http://www.mcmenamins.com/events/search/Movie?location_id=63"><font color="#0000FF"><u>’
</u></font></a><a href="http://www.mcmenamins.com/events/search/Movie?location_id=63"><font color="#0000FF"><u>Mission</u></font></a><a href="http://www.mcmenamins.com/events/search/Movie?location_id=63"><font color="#0000FF"><u> </u></font></a><a href="http://www.mcmenamins.com/events/search/Movie?location_id=63"><font color="#0000FF"><u>Theater</u></font></a>.
The After Party is just that, a party where we can all kick back, listen to music, reflect on the day’s events and chat with the archivists and other people who like history. The After Party is free to everyone, but be sure to bring your money if you want to
partake of McMenamins’ food and beer. Soft drinks will be available for free until they run out.</div>
