Some parades present parking problems and early morning juggling to get a good spot on the sidewalk for a lawn chair… but this is NOT the case with the Teddy Bear Parade. Easy (free) parking. Lots of sidewalks to choose from. Bring your grand-kids, kids, aunts, uncles, the babysitter... come one come all. This is a great (and fun) community event.  
Saturday Sept 29, 10:00, downtown Gresham
Thank you Mt. Hood Lanes for hosting the Try Local event sponsored by Gresham Ford. Networking never stops no matter where chamber members gather.
There might be a new “sheriff” in town. Well, not exactly. Cathe Wiese, My Fathers House, has been nominated to be on the Chamber Board. But the decision is not final yet. Voting takes place at the Chamber Board Meeting and final decision is made at the Annual Membership Meeting taking place Sept 28 during the Speed Networking AM at Mt. Hood Community College.
This Week's AM
A great networking opportunity to meet more than 100 Chamber members and prospective members.

New faces are always welcome!

Tourism


At Smith Rock, towers of volcanic ash rise like the spires of a cathedral out of the sage and dust of the high desert at the birthplace of American sport climbing. Whether you come for the climb or come to unwind, you’ll see why Smith Rock is one of the 7 Wonders of Oregon. Read more Here.
