Since 1985, Portland’s City Council has been presenting the Spirit of Portland Awards to individuals and groups that work to improve the city. This year, the Timbers Army is one of 24 organizations and citizens chosen to be honored.
The Army was nominated by City Commissioner Randy Leonard, who cited both the Army’s role in making Major League Soccer a success and enthusiasm for the city that the Army brings on both game-days and in our numerous charitable endeavors.
The award will be presented in a ceremony beginning at 7 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 27 at the East Portland Community Center, 740 SE 106th Ave.
If you’re reading this, you helped win the award. Congratulations!
