The public is invited to attend Oregon’s only Path of “Almost” Totality Tailgate Party at Umatilla Marina Park. The fun begins at 11 a.m. on Sunday, Aug. 20 and doesn’t stop until 2 a.m. Monday.

There will be live music, dancing, a beer garden and much more. Proceeds from the event will go toward building a permanent stage in the park.

Those interested in being involved in the party financially through sponsorship or by volunteering can call the Umatilla Chamber of Commerce office at 541-922-4825 or stop by 100 Cline Ave. Umatilla Marina Park is located at 1710 Quincy Ave.
