Fancy feet: The Portland Afoot launch party July 15, 2010

Polish the wingtips. Sharpen the stilettos. Work on the Teva tan. Scrub the ball bearings. We're having a footwear party.

You're invited to join Portland Afoot's board, sponsors, friends, foes, tipsters, and charter subscribers at our launch party on Thursday, July 15. It's 7 p.m. at the Blitz Pearl, right on the streetcar at NW 10th & Couch.

And will there be a footgear contest? Yes. The answer is yes.

We'll bring some free food. You'll bring that megawatt smile.

It's really going to be terrific.
