    Accommodations

    To our friends in Washington, California and Oregon; Please plan early by booking hotel reservations now.  Every year Newberg hotel space is at maximum capacity due to graduation at George Fox University the same weekend; space is even more at a premium given the popularity of the many local wineries on a holiday weekend. There is a softball tournament in town to boot. 

    Our preferred hotel provider is:

    Travelodge Newberg 

    2816 Portland Road 
    Newberg, OR 97123
    Phone: (503) 537-5000

    Please make sure that you let them know you are attending the Newberg Boat Races when you register and ask for a discounted rate.  The mangers name is Bala Bhat, dont hesitate to ask for him personally.

    Other hotel accommodations can be booked at:

    Best Western Newberg Inn

    2211 Portland Road, Newberg, OR 97132
    Phone: (503) 537-3000

    Shilo Inn

    501 Sitka Avenue, Newberg, OR 97132
    Phone: (503) 537-0303
    **NOTE: There has been publicity recently about a lawsuit asking that several Shilo properties be placed in receivership.  However, the court has made no ruling at this time, and if it did, operations of the properties would continue.

     

    We sincerely hope that everyone will be able to attend, racer and spectator alike; Please make your plans now for reservations.

    Ken Kaiser, Race Director
