Cold And Rainy Fun At Oregon Zoo BrewLights
PRO DJs once again had the opportunity to play music at Oregon Zoo BrewLights on Friday, November 17th and Saturday, November 18th.
DJ Steve Marker was setup near Elephant Plaza at the far end of the zoo and had ’em dancing until 9:30pm, while DJ Rich Ellis worked the entry way that saw a number of people dancing in the entry plaza until 10pm, especially in the final hour.
It was cold both nights, but it stayed dry on Friday.

Contract Furnishings Mart
Embassy Suites – Tigard, OR (Columbia River Ballroom)
DJ: Rich Ellis
PRO DJs had the opportunity to perform at the holiday party for this company in 2019 and 2021 and the dance floor was packed again this year from start to finish as guests danced to everything from “September” and “Billie Jean” to “Uptown Funk” and “Cupid Shuffle.”
Garner Electric
Embassy Suites – Tigard, OR (Columbia River Ballroom)
DJ: Rich Ellis
This was the third time PRO DJs performed for this company since 2019. We were warned in the past by the owner that electricians are boring and probably won’t dance much :). That wasn’t the case for a small group who had a great time dancing for about an hour non-stop. Even Santa joined in the fun.
