Yes. Please!!! I haven’t ridden the stern wheeler and really want to. ⛴
Whoops. This is for a romantic dinner. I promise to have a person ready if I win. 😉
We would love to have a nice evening away from the coast on a dinner cruise. We been working through this whole covid and need a break away.
It would be so fantastic to get to spend a magical evening on this beautiful cruise.
My 3 year wedding anniversary is this month! This would be the perfect celebration for us <3
I would take my mom!
Would love to go on a cruise to take photos to send to my son who lives in Nevada. He says he misses the river. I guess the desert is getting to him. Haha. Anyways if I win this I can take some photos to send to my son who misses Portland. Thank you.
My husband and I would love to travel the river for fun!
We need a date so baaad!
Wow what great fun!! Husband and I just had our anniversary and did not have a chance to do anything for it. A dinner cruise would be awesome!
Ah yep
I need this!
My daughter postponed her wedding due to CV19.
I would love to surprise her with a river cruise!
Neither of us has been on one.
Thanks!
My wife and I will be celebrating our 15th anniversary in two weeks. What a beautiful way to celebrate this would be!
I’d love to take a cruise again!! Perfect time of the year. I’ve done the Portland Spirit and would love to do the Sternwheeler next. Thanks!
This sounds absolutely amazing! My partner and I have been periodically enjoying quarantine date ideas (hellooo living room karaoke bar!) and it would be so awesome to surprise him with an OUTSIDE DATE! In the real world! And dare I say… ON A BOAT!
I’d love to have a hiking-free Portland experience.
My husband and I have twins, and haven’t had a date in, uh, I really don’t know. I can’t recall a time. We moved to Portland when we were pregnant to have our children here, but now don’t get out enough to see this city!
Sounds like a wonderful relaxing escape!
I Just started dating again A month ago for the first time in years. He’s an amazing man but because of the state of the world…we haven’t been out on a public date yet so this would be such a wonderful treat!!!
My husband would love that. What a fun surprise it would be.
I desperately need something fun.
A beautiful summer day on a boat with music, food and drinks?! It doesn’t get much better than that!!!
I’d love to go on a cruise on the water and have a bite to eat on a beautiful sunny day.
Great memories to make with my loved one…
I’ve lived in Portland for almost 5 years and have never been on the Spirit, would love to go!
My husband and I have lived in the Portland/ Vancouver area for almost over 48 years, off and on, and have always wanted to go for a cruise on the Portland Spirit. We will be celebrating our 49th wedding anniversary on July 7, 2020. What a beautiful and romantic and way to celebrate our special day. We would be so thrilled if we were to be chosen winners of the cruise.
Ahoy, Matey!
Never ever have I…
taken a cruise on Portland Spirit.
OMG This would be a dream!!
I’d like to take my granddaughter who has never been on a cruise.
This would be amazing my wife and I were married just last week and unfortunately we were not able to have a romantic dinner yet.
I’d love to take a special person on this cruise! What a great romantic way to spend an evening and get to know the city and rivers better!
We would love to go! Never been and ready for a day/night out! 🙂
Sounds great!!
Please, pick me. Haven’t been on the river here in PDX and I’ve lived here over a year now.
Pick me!
Such a wonderful relaxing way to see the city!
This would be so awesome after being locked up for months which included missing a birthday celebration on June 5.
It would be so much for Fathers Day and just getting kids away from their video games.
I’d love to take my hubby on a date!
I want to do something special for my boyfriend. Today is his birthday (July 7th) but because of COVID we are staying in for his birthday. It would be wonderful to surprise him with this as a belated gift.
Sounds like a great time!
Yes please please please. Thanks
Just moved here from Seattle in March — and haven’t been able to really experience the city yet b/c of COVID. This would be a dream!
I’d love to do it!
We are allowed to be in public again? Oh man, please pick me!!!
I’ve never been on the Portland Spirit and I’ve lived in Portland most of my life. I’ve always wanted to go! This would be a great chance to check it out.
I’ve got spirit, yes I do, I’ve got spirit, how ‘bout you???
I’d love to see the river from the ship.
Would love to spend some time on the Spirit! Such a beautiful boat in a beautiful city!!
A relaxed cruise as you enjoy a wonderful meal that someone else has prepared and sip a glass of wine, or Viewing the city with a cool breeze blowing through your hair – it sounds like the perfect prescription to an uneasy time.
A cruise on the river sounds like a great remedy from isolation.
Neither my Fiance or I have ever gotten to ride on the waterways around Portland.The closest I we’ve gotten to the water was looking at it out of my window at OHSU when I got my new Liver in January. We made plans to ride on the water once I got out however, I wasn’t nowhere near up to it. Now we’re back in Salem and I doubt we will ever get to come back and do it now unless we win of course.
This sounds like it would be extraordinary!
Hell ya never been
Been awhile since been on it and the date you draw is my boyfriends Birthday. Be fun way to spend it
After a shaky few months it would be wonderful to be able to ride the waves and enjoy a zen moment
I would love to go. I’ve never been on a dinner cruise.
I would love to win such a nice giveaway not only would it be a memorable evening it would be much appreciated.
T’would be lovely to experience the city by water. I have been looking for more ways to connect with the water what better way than by the Portland Spirit!
oh wow! i have been on a really short portland spirit cruise once and i cant wat to take my husband back! we have been quarantined with 6 kids and need some couple time!
Sounds like a perfect way to start getting out again.
I won love go have a date with my husband – we really need it!
My living so , very much an adult, has asked Sarah to marry him!!! She said “yes”!
What a wonderful surprise to be able to enjoy.
Thank you for your kindness
I’d love to take my fiancé out he would be so happy!
I with have driven folks to a cruise for my job many times through the county, but would love to be able to go and experience the excitement of a cruise with a family member. Thank you for considering this.
There’s nothing more precisely true
Than the joy in winning a romantic cruise
It’d be a shame were I to lose
So it’s me the Pipeline indeed should choose
The wife and I would quaff some booze
We relive the time we said our “I do”’s
We’d stare at the rivers beautiful views
At times exclaiming ahhs and ooo’s
My poetic ego would be bruised
I’d say that “We are not amused”
But win! And I shall not refuse
Your praises sung! The Pipeline rules!
There is nothing quite like a romantic cruise in Portland. It’s been a while since I’ve been able to do something relaxing in Portland with my partner. This would be a lovely date!
Yes, this would be so perfect for my husband and I.
Wow!! Sounds really cool!
This sounds amazing! I’m ready for a romantic dinner out after these past few months of quarantining.
We are soooo ready for an evening out, a little respite from the kiddos! Yes, please!
My wedding anniversary is in July and this would be the perfect way to celebrate!
All aboard! I’m missing the sea. Would love a chances to go on a boat ride this summer!
Yikes wrong email above.
Would love to take my wife on a romantic surprise. As she always says I don’t go out of my way to do do something for her after we had a baby 8 months ago.
Please choose us! This experience would be so appreciated to help our relationship.
I have lived in Portland since 1994 and have always dreamed of a dinner cruise on the Columbia but life has seemed to have gotten in the way. Wishing for a chance to experience this.
Thank you!
Want to go on a cruise because we have decided to do a drive thru wedding in Camas, Washington at Mystic Flowers because of the virus. Then the cruise can be our honeymoon gift to each other. Why not? Yippee.
Want to take my special gal on this to surprise her.
Never been but would love the opportunity to go!
Tired of looking at the same four walls for months! Take me to the river…..
I would love the chance to take my wife on this dinner cruise, i have done a few of the cruises during the Blues Festival, but not with my wife.
I’ve never ridden on the Portland Spirit, but have always wanted to. My hubby and I could use a nice date night, now that we are reopened again! Thanks for the opportunity!
This sounds like what I need right now. Relaxing evening on the water❤️
Sounds fun sign me up! 🥳
Sailing away into the sunset is where I want to be
Would love to have an opportunity for some fresh air on our city river. Thank you.
Been in Portland 31 years never been on the spirit cruise. Would be a blessing to go.
I really want to win tickets to take my new friend out since he’s never been on the Spirit!!
I’d love to win so I could support the Portland Spirit and share a rave review about the experience. Adding to my list!
I’ve got spirit, yes I do, I’ve got spirit, how ‘bout you???
Ahhhh… Portland Spirit Cruise…. nice, quiet, relaxing… unless you’re on what is basically one of their booze cruises. I’ll never to a party cruise again. 😉
Otherwise one of the more pleasant experiences in the greater Portland area. Unfortunately it has been too long since we last went, so now I’m hoping to win a trip.
Have yet to take a cruise on the Portland Spirit. Would love to win!
My husband and I moved to Oregon two years ago and still haven’t done the Spirit Cruise yet. Would love to go!
I think I should win because it’s getting quite sad seeing me staring longingly out the windows of my apartment. I’m starting to empathize with house cats. 😸👀
My husband and I could really use a date
sounds like a swell time!
Both wife and I have been working from home for far too long. We need to get to out and go on a cruise! Please!
Getting out of the house and on a boat sounds like a dream come true. I’ve never been on the cruise, but I’ve seen it from shore and it looks fun!
For the most memorable date ever!!!!
Want!
I’d like to attend, You’re ready to start cruising again. I’m ready to start dating again. Both good things!
We had to cancel my wife’s birthday plans because of the virus, so this would be a great backup idea.
Peace and Equanimity during The Covid 2020 Year is, has been and will be realized and enjoyed to the Fullest by engaging in experiences that are EXACTLY like this one. Gratitude, Carma
We weren’t able to celebrate our anniversary due to COVID. This would be a great date night for us. As long as we don’t have to bring the kids 😉
I’m ready! Toot toot!!
This would be a lovely surprise for my fella and I, we’ve always wanted to check out a Portland Spirit cruise, it sounds so romantic and fun!
A brunch cruise through the city sounds like the perfect way to get in some self care during this difficult time! Open air and skyline views, sign me up! I’d love to take my partner for our anniversary, we love being on the water and I think this would be the ultimate stay-cation!
Sounds very inviting to spend seeing the river and drifting down while
enjoying a great meal on a nice summer day.
im thinking cristopher cross right now…..??????
Must love dogs
Never been on a cruise ship. Curious.
yahoo
I’d love to go pick me! Xo
Thank you for providing this chance to win free tickets. That’s very kind of you especially during this pandemic.
YES! I wanna goooooo. I’ve never been on the river on a boat!
It would just be nice to have a treat and like an actively to do outside! We’ve never done one of the cruises plus a meal I don’t have to prepare sounds swell right about now
About this time last summer I had the pleasure of booking my boss and his conference attendees on a lovely Portland Spirit dinner cruise. It was a huge success! He came back and told me all about it. It sure made me wish I could have gone too. Maybe this is my chance!! Hey Portland Spirit! It’s my 25th wedding anniversary this year! What do ya say?!
We would love to go!!
A romantic and relaxing cruise on the river sounds just like what the doctor ordered! With everything that’s been going on a cruise, wonderful dinner and watching the sights would be revitalizing! Out of the house(with mask) on the cruise would be heavenly!
Ah! For a moment to feel normally connected to my partner and to this beautiful city and the community at large floating on the river. How lovely would that be?!? That would be the ultimate much-needed self-care.
Pick me!!! I am so tired of being inside, and the weather is so nice!!!!
I would really enjoy a trip on the water. Thanks.
I would love to go the Portland spirit. I just finished cancer treatment and it would be nice to have a fun thing to do
Who wouldn’t enjoy some time away from home for a few hours these days ! It would be wonderful to be out on the river too! I would love to take my wife for a sweet little getaway.
We could all use a little Spirit in our lives, right now!
Why would I like to attend?
Shouldn’t say because I’ve lived here my whole life and haven’t experienced it.
Shouldn’t say because I can’t actually afford it.
Shouldn’t say because my partner and I are frontline workers deemed essential.
Shouldn’t say because our anniversary is in July.
I’ll stop there haha
Love y’all
Would be fun to go and enjoy. Cheers!
Just found out from the doctor I may be going blind. want to see everything before I do. Please let me win this. Thank you
I need this. I’m a essential worker. Bank protection officer. Thanks.
My very good friends are a bi-racial couple. Young and trying their best to live their lives in the best way. I know they are just struggling like all of us. I think they would really enjoy this gift..
I’d love to win and give them the tickets!
Thank you,
My wife and I have been cooped up inside our house for months and we definitely need to get outside. As a primary care health provider, my wife is on the front line fighting the COVID-19 pandemic. I don’t deserve a dinner and evening out, but she certainly does!
Yes Please and thank you!
Oh my, you don’t know how much we would love this! Have wanted to go for year’s.
I love to win, I miss boat rides!
Even with the pandemic, I’ve found someone I want to spend a romantic evening on the river with! So many places are closed, or we have to wear masks – I know this would be one of those early romance memories that can make history! Everyone sharing can use this dinner cruise as much as we, however, I have my fingers crossed anyway! Thank you for doing this giveaway!
I’ve been wanting to take my mom on a Portland Spirit cruise as a birthday present for a long time, but I’m currently not working. She’s turning 73 this August, and I know she would LOVE this experience and the memories that will go along wit it.
I’d love to win this Portland Spirit cruise because I’m going to be 75 in August and I think it would be a fabulous birthday present from you, to me! :)) Thanks!
Our 20th wedding anniversary in NYC turned into a 20th anniversary in SW Washington. We love our community, but canceling our trip was sad for both my wife and I. So, a wonderful experience like this would be a wonderful way to make it up to her!
My partner and I have been working in healthcare through all this and really need a nice night out together! Weve been working opposite shifts and this would be so lovely
Yes please this would be amazing and great date fun with my handsome man. Much deserved us time.
It would be a great way to makeup for missing my birthday due to the virus!
Please
portland spirit was the nicest date i ever had with my husband and we need another being stuck and cooped up with 6 kids!
I would love to take my wife on this cruise with me once you let me know i won!
Boat!
Such a wonderful Portland tradition. Would love to have an opportunity to do this.
I heard they have a cool mug you can buy on the cruise with the photo of portland on it. I want to get a mug. Please pick me. Thanks.
Portland and life looks different from being on water. For me it’s calming.
I would love to win!
I would SO love to be on this boat!
This COVID thing is rough!
I would love to win these tickets, so I can surprise my boyfriend with them. He’s been wanting to take that cruise since he moves here
I want to ask her to marry me. Please pick us. Thanks.
I’m new to Portland and would love to see the city from the water!
This pandemic has gotten me really bummed out. I could certainly use a night out of some normality. I’m a social butterfly and this butterfly is tired of being coupled up in a cocoon. I’m a caregiver (free one because it’s for my family) so I never get to go out anymore I would enjoy a night of dining and dancing.
Pretty please and thank you
Please, please, please get me out of the house! I am going stir-crazy! I love boats!
A unique opportunity to create very special memories with my loved one. Count us in!
We’d love to win; we’ve never been on a cruise & it could be a nice change of pace from quarantining in our little apartment. :- )
Lived in portland my entire life (36 years), wanted to go on the spirit but never been able to make it happen, mostly due to apathy but this…this is the time to break the streak.
Please, please. I am so bored and hungry. Thanks!
Any cruise would be an amazing adventure!
Welcome back. I hope you and your team are being safe and are excited that you are back in operation. This will be my 6th time entering to win. I miss being in the water now that I live here and there aren’t too many options for disabled people of size. I’m also a photographer and would welcome the opportunity to capture Portland with you.
The hubs and I are expecting a baby next year. I would love to do this with him for a “babymoon.”
I want to win
I would like to win this to take my girlfriend.
She needs a romantic getaway after being in quarantine. Stuck in our apartment. Both of us losing our jobs and just trying to survive with very little money.
We really need a romantic getaway.
Thank you pdxpipeline.com
After sailing at night on a cruise I’m excited about the reopening of these cruises and plan on going during the daytime! Thanks
I would love this. I’m tired of all the doctors and nurses getting all the praise. I’m a essential worker. I open the doors at the bank all day to let folks in and I walk the parking lot to make sure there is no robberies and I go inside the bank to make sure everyone is safe. I’m a bank protection officer and I need to go on a cruise to take a break. Thanks for listening.
We’ve never been able to go on one of these cruises, but have always wanted to. This would be a great date night for my hubby and I.
I’ve never been on a cruise. I would love to win.
I’d love to take my out of town family on one of these cruises to see the beauty, once they can visit again!
Never been on a romantic cruise for two.
I need a break please. Help me. Thanks so much.
A safe social distancing get away, even for a coule of hours, would be so greatly appreciated! I love the water and seeing PDX from a different place.
Good evening,
I am turning 50 next month and would love to celebrate my birthday on this beautiful boat.
This is my first summer in Portland and I would love to experience the Portland Spirit Cruise!
THIS IS AWESOME!!!! My Partner and I would enjoy this to the fullest, we love the beauty of Portland and love SPIRITS!
