You're invited to join PDX, in partnership with the Port of Portland's Asian Pacific Islander Employee Resource Group, in celebrating National Hawaiian Shirt Day! If your workplace permits, show your tropical spirit in your favorite Hawaiian shirt or accessory on Friday, August 19. Don't forget to take a picture, share on social media and tag Portland International Airport. You can also email your pictures to PDXPeople Communications for possible inclusion in the PDX People newsletter!

National Hawaiian Shirt Day is observed on the third Friday of August. This special themed day coincides with the Hawaiian state holiday, Statehood or Admissions Day. The holiday commemorates the day Hawaii became the 50th state of the United States (Friday, August 21, 1959).
