Gresham Area Chamber of Commerce in Pictures Sponsored by MEWA

This is NOT a predetermined posed shot. At a recent Friday AM, members spontaneously wanted to be in a photo that shows support for the Safety Levy. This spontaneous safety support crossed over a broad range of business types, sizes, and political spectrums. The Gresham Area Chamber Board voted to support the levy.  The election is in May. Information is available on the chamber website or email the office for any questions not answered.
