As employees of the Portland Trail Blazers at the Rose Quarter, we bring people together to create extraordinary moments and lasting memories through the power of sports and entertainment.
We are two teams that work as one. Rip City Management executes our events at the Rose Quarter, from games to concerts and everything in between. Trail Blazers Inc. connects with fans, from ticket holders to partners and clients. We unite for top company results. We are the team behind the team.
Since 1970, we have been pioneers in the sports and entertainment industry. We are committed to our mission of creating extraordinary moments for our guests. We are innovators who believe in creativity, sustainability, and inclusiveness to help craft the culture of the Northwest. Our organization has an opportunity and responsibility to positively impact our staff, players, fans, and community. As such, we are committed to advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion within our organization and our community. We are all a part of Rip City.
Born in the mountains out of love for freeride skiing, our passion for adventure runs deep. We believe that freeride is a mindset, an attitude, a drive to challenge convention, to forge your own path, to explore and discover, and choosing your own line. Based on this, our purpose is simple. As for our products, they all enable the freedom to be adventurous. Whether horizontally or vertically, on skis, by bike, or on foot, they offer the optimal balance of style and performance.
Our Scandinavian heritage is ever-present, and our commitment to doing better things in a better way is our never-ending responsibility. For memories, stories, products, and adventures that will withstand the test of time.
The American Trail Running Association (ATRA), was formed in 1996 as a Colorado not for profit corporation to serve the trail and mountain running community. We offer individual, club, race and corporate memberships. One of our primary benefits is our quarterly newsletter, Trail Times. Our newsletter includes a national events calendar, thoughtful articles, and timely information about our sport.
