Portends
of Popular Port of Oakland PortFest
The Port of Oakland invites you to celebrate its
75th Anniversary at Portfest 2002! Saturday May 18th, from 11 am
to 6 pm, at Jack London Square.
It’s a free day of fun for everyone. The festival will showcase
a spectacular vintage air show, free harbor boat tours, dragon
boat races, and two stages of great entertainment. Children will
love operating the smallest working container crane. Enjoy
fascinating aviation and maritime displays as well as a model
train set-up that grown-ups won’t be able to resist.
Activities for kids will run all day long; cooking demonstrations
and culinary delights will be offered in the international food
court; and live bands and dance troupes will entertain throughout
the day.
What would a 75-year birthday party be without a bit of history?!
When you stroll through Jack London Square at Portfest 2002, you
might run into aviators Amelia Earhart and Bessie Coleman, or
perhaps you’ll catch writer Jack London scribbling a bit of
prose.
You won’t want to miss it! Mark your calendar for Saturday, May
18th for Portfest 2002.
