SMBA “Summerville” turns into a Street Fair on August 2nd: The Sellwood-Moreland Business Alliance, which has presented the “Summerville” sales and fun throughout the neighborhood in previous years, this year plans its “first-ever, free, open-air Summerville Street Fair” along S.E. 13th in Sellwood between Nehalem and Bidwell, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday, August 2nd, with over sixty vendors – and plenty of food. It is described as “a day of family fun for all ages – local art, great food, shopping, games, crafts, treats, and so much more”. This will take place one day before “Sundae in the Park” at Sellwood Park on August 3rd.

Distinction for Southeast dog-oriented business: Stephen Fox of “Surf’s Pup Doggie Lounge” in Woodstock writes to THE BEE: “Every year, Willamette Week puts out its ‘Best of Portland’ reader’s poll issue… On July 23rd, our business, took the top spot in the category ‘Best Non-Veterinary Pet Care Services’… We are a small business based in Woodstock, operating primarily in Southeast Portland.” Fox is a member of the Board of the Woodstock Community Business Association (WCBA). The business in question specializes particularly in dog walking and dog adventures, and is contactable primarily through its website – http://www.surfspupdogcare.com
