Greater Grays Harbor, Inc.’s (GGHI) upcoming two-part Business Forum Lunch (BFL) will take place on Tuesday, July 23, 2024 from 11:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at the Rotary Log Pavilion located at 1401 Sargent Blvd in Aberdeen.

The first portion of the BFL will feature a special presentation by the Director of Grays Harbor County Public Health, Mike McNickle. McNickle will discuss the latest services being offered by their organization and how they work to improve the health and well-being of our community. Additionally, attendees will learn more about their brand new mobile medical van that can bring an exam room, vaccine clinic, and supplies directly to rural areas in the County.

The second portion of this BFL will feature a meet and greet with the new GGHI CEO, Darrin Raines, whose first day with the organization was July 1, 2024. Raines will share his goals and plans as he takes over this important role in the Grays Harbor community.

Darrin comes to GGHI after over 30 years working in local municipal government and operations, most recently as the City Administrator for the City of Cosmopolis. With his time working in government, he takes on the role with decades of regional connections and grant writing and implementation experience.
