We are located in the Portland Oregon area. WSTC is closed for 2 months and we are looking for meets/ camps, etc for the remainder of August so my son does not get too rusty, which is hard living in rainy NW

Two clubs near you in WA:
Columbia Striders in Kelso: columbiastriders@yahoo.com
Star Vault in Vancouver (WA) - I don't know Louis's contact info off the top of my head, but if you go to usatf.org and search for clubs in the Pacific NW Association, you'll find Star Vault there.
I don't know what their practice schedule is like, but they're worth looking up.

There is one more OTC all-comers meet at Hayward field this week. A bit of a drive from P-town, but worth it to jump at Hayward!
Here's the link:

After that, there may be a street vault in Coos Bay in late August. Check out the Prefontaine Track Club website in case they update the info:

After that, it may be a good time for cross-training!
Cheers
Tom

Thanks for the information, unfortunetly the All Comers in Eugene is on a week day (Aug. 5th & 6th), rather than a weekend. I will check out Coos Bay.
As for Columbia Striders, I shot them an e-mail on Sunday, nothing back yet, so they may have shut down for the summer too?
But thanks again for the information!!

That's possible, this is currently a no contact period for WA coaches and athletes. CSTC has a variety of coaches so that they don't work with their athletes in the off season, but they may be taking a break.
