Group organizes stand-in to oppose adult entertainment clubs

SOSOregon.org is holding a stand-in event on Friday, September 9, at 6:00 p.m. at the Acropolis (8325 S.E. McLoughlin Blvd.) to oppose establishment of a new adult entertainment club, and protest against two other existing adult entertainment clubs nearby.

The group is protesting against the establishment of Casa Diablo, an adult entertainment club catering to vegans. The club wold be located next door to another adult entertainment club Acropolis on S.E. McLoughlin Blvd. near the Portland and Milwaukie city boundary.

The group is also protesting a third club, Blush, which is located two miles north on S.E. McLoughlin Blvd.

Casa Diablo currently has one club open in northwest Portland.

SOSOregon.org explains the purpose of the stand-in in more detail in their update from SOS Oregon.

On May 10, 2011, the Ardenwald-Johnson Creek Neighborhood District Association approved unanimously at its regular meeting to produce a letter in support of Sellwood-Moreland Improvement League’s (SMILE) opposition to the new club.

Both Acropolis and the new Casa Diablo sites are in the SMILE neighborhood on the boundary with Ardenwald-Johnson Creek neighborhood within the Portland City Limits.
