Changes this year . . .
We heard from you, our members and friends, that what you love about the Oregon ON
annual banquet is that it gives you an opportunity to mix, mingle, and catch up with your friends in all parts of the housing sectors and to celebrate the good work of the industry.
So this year, instead of a sit-down banquet, we are planning a bigger and better than ever party for your enjoyment, featuring:
- An awards ceremony to celebrate the outstanding work of our industry

- Generous array of hot and cold hors d’oeuvres
- Plenty of time to network and visit with your friends to the drifting strains of mandolin music
- Specially designated seating and recognition for sponsors
Prices – same prices as last year, more fun!
Members . . . $75
Nonmembers . . . $80
Tables of 10: $750
Thank you to our major sponsors Bank of America, Chase, LMC Construction, Walsh Construction Co., Portland Housing Bureau, and R&H / Colas Construction!
