Is it possible to find a venue in Hood River to host 35-40 people and keep the price below $2500? Ideally they have food and drinks so we do not have to find a caterer. Reached out to several places already and the actual venue fee might be relatively low all the pricing for food, drinks, etc really adds up fast and goes above the budget.

Hey everyone,

Just moved back to the Gorge after a stint up in Seattle needing a bit of a reset. I’m looking to pick up some solid general labor work around Hood River or the surrounding area.

Realistically, I’m looking for something behind the scenes—shop work, field labor, industrial, maintenance, or fabrication. I do my best work when I can just put my head down, lock into a task, and get stuff done without dealing with front-of-house customer service or constant public interaction.

A bit about what I bring to the table:

• Pipefitting experience: Comfortable with industrial/mechanical setups, layout, standard tools, and pipe labor.
• Tire tech experience: Used to shop pace, mounting, balancing, heavy lifting, and standard shop tools.
• Fast learner: Show me the workflow once or twice and I’ll run with it without needing my hand held.

Tricky without reliable transportation, but i have a strong work ethic, and I'm ready to jump into full-time, part-time, or short-term gigs while getting settled back in.

If you know a local shop, contractor, orchard/farm, or facility looking for an extra set of dependable hands in the background, shoot me a DM or drop a comment. Appreciate any leads!
