It may not be unique to Tigard, but it is the only town I've ever experienced it in.
Each year in June the town folk of Tigard come out for the annual Tigard Balloon
Festival. There are rides, booths, music, food and beer. But most people come to look at the balloons. If your there early enough you can watch them roll out the fabric, turn on the burns, fill up, and float away. In the evening they refill the balloons and when they fire the burners the glow.
The musics not great and neither is the food, but that doesn't matter. It is all about being together with other people, enjoying the park, and dreaming about floating away to some place different. Only in Oregon, at least for me
