International focus on Gresham and Mt Hood Community College. World Games (more info to come) in 2021 is bringing lots of activity to the track and field facility at MHCC. First to scope out our great facility is Charlie Burn of the UK. A private welcome reception showed visitors the wide range of community commitment to partner in the world games.

Thank you John Maloney for being a solid committed chamber board member.  His efforts on the Executive Board and Nominating committee have had lasting impact on the Chamber success. Good luck to John as he retires from PGE. We welcome Deane Funk from PGE to the board to fill John's big shoes.
