The Week of September 20th, 2022
It takes months to find a customer and seconds to lose them.
Salvation Army Gresham Corps Kettle
It’s never too early to think about Christmas activities. Pictured above is Barbara from Mt. Hood Hospice and Gail, Send Out Cards. Both braved the cold weather to ring The Salvation Army Gresham Corps kettle. These three member companies are in the business of helping care for people, whether it is a card, food, or supportive care.  
Rumor says that Mt. Hood Lanes, Inc. has done some upgrades and remodeling.
Try Local in 2017 enjoyed the environment then. Can’t wait to see the remodel.
Looking for an afternoon of fun with family or staff? Take them bowling, to a rock climbing experience at Rock Haven Climbing LLC, or make a fun video at The SDF Collective. Lots to do with fellow Chamber Members.   
Hollie Miller, Gresham Area Chamber of Commerce Bookeeper
We wish Hollie a speedy recovery from her recent surgery. Always a fun and helpful staff member.
SOLD OUT
Elected officials, at every level, impact our businesses. 
  • The Multnomah County Chair controlled our ability to do business during COVID-19.
  • State Representatives decide on taxes and regulations.
  • City Council sits in a position to impact public safety finances and homeless solutions.
 
As business owners, we have little time during our day to dig deep into who is running for office. Yet their decisions determine our ability to be successful business owners. An efficient way to learn directly from local candidates is to attend the Business and Leaders Luncheon.
