From the desk of the President & CEO
Hi Members, The month of May was a big month for Grants Pass and Josephine County to continue economic prosperity in our community. We had some big successes! The Chamber of Commerce was excited to be involved with the progress! Thank you to our members and businesses for the roles they played to make this happen! First, we were all relieve to see the Grants Pass Public Safety Levy renewal pass! This was an important step to keep our community and businesses safe. Current services levels will continue with out layoffs. A big thank you to the PAC committee that spent countless hours to make this happen. The Chamber of Commerce also helped push this renewal through publishing an argument in favor in the Voter’s pamphlet, hosting a Forum to educate and inform voters, participating in media coverage through promotional videos, and sharing important facts. The Grants Pass Airport also made an impact finalizing funding needed to extend the runway. This will be a big economic driver to retain and grow our current companies utilizing the airport and also relocating new companies. The Chamber was a big supporter of the movement. We were able to contribute letters of support from the Chamber, our Government Affairs and Business Retention & Expansion Committees, and also support from board members including public comment. Thank you to the City and County for agreeing to fund the expansion. As tourism is a huge contributor to our local economy, the month of May also marked a first for Josephine County as the Josephine County Visitors Association had their first full board meeting moving forward with a brand-new Designation Marketing Organization. The Chamber of Commerce is excited to be a part of this important movement with a permanent board seat! We had some big wins for our community this month and we are looking forward to continuing to advocate for our businesses and growing our economy. Thanks for all your support!

UScellular Donates $30,000 to the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Rogue Valley in Grants Pass Wireless Carrier’s Grant Focuses on Education and Inspiring Interest in STEM-centered Careers GRANTS PASS, OR (May 19, 2021) – UScellular has announced a $30,000 investment in the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Rogue Valley in Grants Pass to provide educational opportunities and experiences to local youth. UScellular’s investment supports K-12 Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) and academic enrichment programs for members at the Club. This is part of a $1 million donation the company made to support 20 Boys & Girls Clubs across its service areas. This continued emphasis on STEM learning and experience is designed to prepare students of today for careers of tomorrow, inspiring children to explore STEM careers and opportunities for their future. “As America’s locally grown wireless carrier, supporting local educational initiatives like the Boys & Girls Clubs’ STEM programming is in UScellular’s DNA,” said Sarah Pearson, UScellular’s Area Vice President/General Manager, for the Northwest. “It is our goal that through new learning opportunities, the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Rogue Valley Club members will dream big and apply what they learn towards their future careers.” The Boys & Girls Clubs of the Rogue Valley have been given a $30,000 donation from UScellular. This is the largest one-time donation the wireless carrier has given to this organization, in an effort to help it have a deep impact on STEAM learning and experience for local youth and is part of a $1 million donation the company made to support 20 Boys & Girls Clubs across its service areas. The donation will go towards the Club’s summer program and getting a supply list together for some projects at each of its three sites, to get kids and teens excited about all things STEAM. Such as: • Daily STEAM activities following weekly themes (such as renewable energy, ocean life and more). • Field trips and/or guest presenters. • Middle school teens, throughout the summer, will have week-long themed STEAM Camps focused on: -Stop Motion Animation -3D Printing, -Escape Rooms -Forensic Science. 8
“Preventing summer learning loss is very important, especially now after more than a year of virtual learning,” said Greg Roe, Executive Director of the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Rogue Valley in Grants Pass. “UScellular’s support of our STEAM program not only helps prevent learning loss, it also makes learning fun for kids and opens the door to new experiences. UScellular makes summer fun and we are so grateful for this continued partnership.” UScellular associates didn’t let a pandemic stop them from donating their resources in 2020. The company’s associates took part in a variety of virtual volunteer activities, participating in more than 2,000 volunteer experiences to give back throughout the year. They also donated $250,000 to more than 500 organizations, which was then doubled by UScellular through its donation matching program.

Welcome to Jason Davis, the new incoming Josephine County Airport Manager
At the “Snow Event” Jason cleared more than TWO FEET of snow off the runway with a pickup truck and a blade – an almost impossible task with minimal equipment.
“Jason is a systematic thinker, an excellent communicator, and has always gone above-and-beyond to solve challenges.”
“We have all witnessed Jason in action, he is a detailed and caring person who exhibits concern with all facets of airport operation. I have often observed Jason tackle a tough job in bad weather driven by the need to get the project completed. Mr. Davis is familiar with both County airports and, in my opinion, he is a leader who works tirelessly and is willing to tackle any important endeavor.”
Overall, it is estimated that businesses which utilize aircraft based at Grants Pass Airport bring in more than $500 Million dollars annually, with about 93% of that attributable to City-Based Business.

The American Flag was repainted at Schroeder Park on Friday, May 14th. The flag is painted on rocks that are laid out on the hillside between the day use area and camping was repainted. It can best be viewed by parking in the lower parking lot by the boat ramp and walking just upriver through the grass. Daisy Owens, a local teenager, contacted the Josephine County Parks Department after seeing the faded flag painted on the rocks at Schroeder Park. She thought it would be a fun to repaint the symbolic red, white and blue colors. Daisy is a Senior at Grants Pass High School, is a member of the Grants Pass High School Color Guard and loves to paint. Josephine County Parks purchased the materials and Daisy worked independently to apply the red, white and blue colors. Park Ranger Tony Rodriguez helped coordinate the artwork. “It is great to have young adults show interest in wanting to give back to their community,” said Parks Director Sarah Garceau. “She will spend her day off school volunteering her time to do something that so many park visitors will enjoy viewing.” Schroeder Park is located at 605 Schroeder Lane in Grants Pass. The American Flag was last painted onto the rocks in 2016 by members of a local boy scout troop.

Josephine County Emergency Management Needs Mythical Creatures! Fire season is quickly approaching, and we need your help! Have you ever wondered what we do in the Emergency Operations Center during a fire, winter storm or other evacuation event? Have you ever thought about getting involved and helping your community? We are here to make your dreams come true (just those dreams)! Emergency Management is looking for volunteers who are good with people, have customer service experience and feel confident on a computer — these people are like mythical beings, community service ninja warriors! These warriors will be trained to take calls, check the status of/make updates to Citizen Alert accounts, provide information about the current event and inform people about their evacuation level and where to go for help during the disaster. Our ninjas may also help with parking at events (such as a vaccination clinic), staffing at temporary evacuation points or helping with our emergency preparedness training. In return for your service, you will get a good fuzzy feeling, more high fives than those who don’t help, free food (most of the time), free coffee and sometimes you’ll even get to wear a super cool vest that you can use as a cape! What more could you want? If you are interested in being awesome, please click the link below and fill out a volunteer application today! Mail or deliver your application to:
