Deena Jensen, Mortgage Express at the Gresham Area Chamber of Commerce
Thank you Deena, Mortgage Express, NMLS-62738 & NMLS-205436, for being a golfer in past tournaments. As you can tell by this photo, serious and not so serious golfers sign up and have fun at the Chamber golf tournament. There is still room to register to play in the Monday, June 27th tournament.
Speed Networking hosted by the Gresham Area Chamber of Commerce
Speed networking, a quarterly AM event, is a productive time to network with fellow members. Whatever your business, whether a non-profit like REAP INC. (Becky on the left), or a new member business like Happy Baskets/Simple Pleasures Gift Baskets (Tangee on the right), taking advantage of Chamber opportunities has positive results. 
The 2022 Golf Tournament benefits the Gresham Area Chamber Foundation. Funds are available for a variety of purposes. Three 2018-19 Leadership Academy students were provided with scholarship funds from the Chamber Foundation to help offset tuition. Register for the golf tournament and make a life-changing difference to a deserving student.

Take a class on a lake or a river for a mindful experience.
When you place your practice atop a floating stand-up paddle board, the lessons of breathing, balance and being present become even more crystal clear. Certified yoga instructors frequently work with area rental shops to help you get what you need to get mindful on the water. Check out these places and opportunities for flow.
