The Port of The Dalles will hold a public dedication celebration Friday afternoon for the new Columbia Gorge Industrial Center. Along with the usual ribbon-cutting and dedication speeches for the 60-acre North Chenoweth site, they will be holding quad-copter races. The Port’s Kathy Ursprung says the races are to help illustrate efforts to market the park to businesses in the unmanned aerial vehicle industry. There will also be a mass kite-flying event, and there will be giveaways of kites and gliders to kids while supplies last. The event will run from 1:30 p.m. to 4 p.m. on Friday. The Center is located off Interstate 84 Exit 82 on River Trail Way.
