Adopt a Porto Potty!
Who wants naming rights for the most visited spot at the 5k?!
You might not win the race, but you might be named Master of the Throne.
Pick your name (we'll make the signage). But keep it clean(ish), it's a family event. Get it? Keep it clean, bwa ha ha...
Adopt and decorate your porto and make it your own. Really go for it, we are hosting a Best Porto Potty Contest. And while you don't have exclusive squatting rights, your john might be voted #1 by the patrons of your fine establishment as the best porto in town making you the Master of the Throne.
