Upcoming Programs: 

2020 Legislative Review LIVESTREAM: Featuring a Focus on Economic Rebound & Recovery – Friday, May 15 
The annual Legislative Review event has been morphed this year to respect the social distancing efforts across the state as well as the opportunity to speak with our state Department of Commerce and local state policy makers about our region’s rebound and recovery. On Friday, May 15 at 8:30 AM, we will be hosting a livestream with our co-producers Columbia River Economic Development Council (CREDC), and Identity Clark County (ICC) and community partners at the Building Industry Association (BIA of Clark County). This event will feature feedback from a representative from the Washington State Department of Commerce, live, as well as Q&A opportunities with the SW Washington Legislative Delegation. To further promote the safety and well-being of our community, 25% of registration fees will be donated to the production and distribution of PPE materials with a generous, matched donation by Miller Nash Graham & Dunn, LLP for the first 100 registrations. Presented by NW Natural, with sponsorship from Kaiser Permanente and our Media Sponsor, The Columbian. Register here for the Livestream! 

 
Economic Rebound & Recovery Survey – Available here! 
The GVCC with our partners at CREDC and ICC, invite you to take a few minutes to complete this survey to assess the economic impact and recovery related to COVID-19. Our intention is to share the data with the SW Legislative Delegation during the aforementioned livestream event on May 15. It is important our policy makers understand the extent to which COVID-19 is impacting companies and the broader economy in Clark County. Your feedback on this survey is key to be able to deliver that information and we need it by Friday, May 8. Responses will be aggregated so as not to disclose any vulnerabilities unique to your company. Thank you for your time and feedback!  
 

Wild Wild West Golf Tournament – Monday, June 22 
Grab your lasso’s and bandanas, it’s almost time for a good ol’ fashioned Shotgun Scramble! For our non-golfers reading this, that means the Annual Golf Tournament, themed Wild Wild West, is approaching very soon! Now at Royal Oaks Country Club, the annual 18-hole scramble will feature old fashioned games, course contests, and as always, a great day of golf! Presented for the 18th year by Columbia Bank. Thank you to Media Sponsor, The Columbian. 

Interested in becoming a partner, partner? Become a contest sponsor, add your swag to the players’ swag bags, host your own tee display...the opportunities for visibility go on! Learn more about sponsorship availability here, or connect with Amy Tanska to learn more. 

NOTE: Per recommendations from Governor Jay Inslee, we will be following the most up-to-date guidelines assuring the health and safety of the golfers and staff takes priority. As June 22, 2020 approaches, we anticipate adjustments will be made to these social distancing policies and with that, we will be updating each of our players as new information comes. Thank you for your understanding. Stay well.
