HELP HOST ATHLETES FOR THE USGP RACES IN PORTLAND

Greetings OBRA land!

Since Oregon is cross crazy, I thought it would be easy to offer host housing for out of town athletes for the weekend of December 1-2. I know I appreciate host housing when traveling for all of these races. And most racers are not fussy and usually pretty independent and just need a place to make some meals and a place to sleep. If you are willing to open your home, please send me an e-mail off list with the following information:

Your name
Address
phone
e-mail
# of athletes you are willing to host
sleeping accomodations (i.e.: fold out sofa, extra room w/ double bed, cardboard box in alley; this helps, b/c usually girls will share beds, but for some reason boys won't)

When I get contacted by people looking for housing, I will directly give them your contact info and get out of the loop. And if you live close to another OBRA host/hostess, please also let me know. I will try to keep teams together that are travelling together, b/c they usually share transport.

Thanks! Let's continue to make Portland the most hospitable cross venue in the nation!
