On Saturday, September 2nd, Doernbecher and Timberline are teaming up to host an inspiring, supportive, hope-filled distraction, a day-of-days on Mt. Hood — Daydream, a celebration of music, brews and bikes at historic Timberline Lodge benefitting OHSU Doernbecher Children’s Hospital.

“The Timberline ethos prioritizes not only Mt. Hood stewardship and a high level of social responsibility, but positivity and support of each other,” says John Burton, Director of Public Affairs and Marketing at Timberline. “Through authentic relationships and interests, Doernbecher and Timberline realized their core values are aligned for the greater good, for supporting hope. It is through these beliefs that Daydream was born.”

A Level 1 trauma center and home of the largest pediatric intensive care unit in Oregon, OHSU Doernbecher Children’s Hospital has provided hope and healing to children and families in the Pacific Northwest for nearly 100 years.

Daydream will begin bright and early with an inclusive and exciting 100-team bike race produced by Race Cascadia. Teams are encouraged to dress up and show team spirit, pride, panache, or clever puns. Register online at racecascadia.com.

Timberline Daydream culminates in a live concert featuring headliner and Grammy-award winning local band Portugal. The Man. Other musical acts include The Fur Coats, Tony Smiley and The Get Ahead. Join us at the amphitheater northwest of historic Timberline Lodge. Rain or shine, music starts at noon and ends before the sun goes down. Dress in layers and be prepared for cool mountain temps! Admission to the Timberline Daydream music festival is FREE with a suggested donation to Doernbecher. Capacity is limited, attendance is available first-come-first-served.

A food, wine and beer garden will be set up on the lodge’s back patio, a short distance from the amphitheater. In addition to Mt. Hood Brewing Co. craft ales, a variety of local wine, cider and spirits will also be available. Timberline’s other restaurants will be open during Daydream. The Cascade Dining Room offers breakfast and lunch buffets and casual fine dining for dinner (reservations recommended for dinner). Ram’s Head Bar will be open with family-friendly food and drinks with mountain views from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Food and beverage will also be available in the Day Lodge during the bike race.

Please expect heavy traffic for this event. Parking and shuttle access will be available first-come-first served. Similar to busy winter weekends when Timberline’s upper lots reach capacity, the main access road will be closed. Timberline Shuttles will offer service from Summit Pass in Government Camp in the morning until the music starts. Public transportation via the Mt. Hood Express is available from Sandy and Welches up to Timberline. Use TripCheck to view traffic.

Guests are encouraged to be prepared and dressed for variable mountain temps. And please: no camping, no picnics and no dogs.
