NETs may not table, or distribute literature, at Portland Parks & Recreation events without prior permission. | |||
Each event planned by PP&R is produced in partnership with a community group. As part of this partnership, each community group is allowed to have two “informational” tablers onsite, such as Neighborhood Associations. Historically, it’s not uncommon for a community group to have a NET as one of their selected tablers. In this scenario, there are no costs for tabling groups. | |||
The other way to table onsite, which does involve a fee, is to become a [https://www.portland.gov/parks/arts-culture/summer-free-all/cultural-events#toc-opportunities-for-tablers “program-wide” tabler] with SFFA. PBEM does not have budget to sponsor this option. | |||
Showing up rogue means that you can expect a “structured leaving-the-park conversation” with Parks staff. And then they will report the situation to PBEM, and we'll have another conversation . . . So please just don't go rogue. | |||
