Please join your hosts for an exciting evening in the award winning and second-largest convention center in the United States!

It will be a beautiful morning in Orlando, Florida, Wednesday, July 22! Usher in the day with your CESSE colleagues and friends, shake out the cobwebs and get invigorated with our annual 5K Run/2K Walk. Meet your hosts from Travel Portland, Oregon Convention Center and Triumph Expo and Design for coffee and juice at the central lobby no later than 5:45 A.M.! We'll guide any "sleepwalkers" to the starting line - just steps from the hotel.
Besides burned calories, you will be rewarded with a special Northwest gift and the knowledge you have given 100% of your $35.00 donation to the results oriented, Engineers Without Borders.
Stop by the registration booth Monday or Tuesday morning to pick up your instructions and souvenir. Competitively run or lazily stroll, just don't miss being a part of this CESSE tradition!
