Take the Best of Portland 2013 Survey and Win $250, $50 Gift Cards

The 2013 Portland food and drink survey is now open. Since we already covered coffee, those questions have been removed, along with a few others. There is one new question – “Best outdoor dining space”.

I have purchased a $250 gift card to Timberline Lodge as an incentive. One lucky person will be awarded the card in a random drawing, so if you want to be eligible, be sure to leave your email address (it will never be given out, but just used to notify the winner). The gift card can be used for any purchase at Timberline Lodge or the Ice Axe Grill, lift tickets, rentals, lessons etc. A $50 gift certificate to a restaurant of your choice will be given out as a second prize. The survey will close after we have at least 1,000 responses.
