The holiday season seems to be coming in at a faster than normal pace this year. I thought this would be a good time to provide a run down of Greater Grays Harbor, Inc. activity and events for the remainder of the year to ensure the word gets out!

Building the Local and Regional Economy

This event is open to the public and the only one being held in our region.
