Back in 1887 Oregon was the first state to officially recognize the Labor Day holiday, so it’s only fitting that to this day we throw huge Labor Day picnics throughout the state.
Portland’s big picnic takes place Monday, September 6 2010 at Oaks Amusement Park from 10am until 5pm.
The event is sponsored by the Northwest Oregon Labor Council and around 15,000 people are expected to attend this year.
