Hello Members,

I hope this message finds you well. It’s time for an update on what Greater Grays Harbor, Inc. has been working on, and we are excited to share our progress and upcoming endeavors with valued members like you.

Current Projects and Initiatives

We are constantly pushing the envelope with new and continuing projects to promote economic growth in our community. As your regional chamber of commerce, economic development center (EDC), and associate development organization (ADO), we’re actively facilitating business interactions across private, public, and government sectors. Our mission is deeply rooted in partnership and communication, ensuring rural issues are always in the spotlight.

Progress on Tasks

Our efforts have been met with success, as indicated by being awarded the prestigious U.S. Economic Development Administration (EDA) Recompete Grant. With this, we aim to reverse the trend of a disengaged workforce and revive Grays Harbor’s economic participation.

Upcoming Events and Meetings

Don’t miss out on our live Zoom GGHI Government Affairs Briefings every Friday morning at 7:30 am. These sessions provide insightful weekly updates and a platform for dialogue. We value your participation as we collectively contribute to the economic energy of our area. This is an exclusive benefit for the GGHI membership.

Additionally, mark your calendars for the February Business After Hours hosted Mount Olympus Brewing Co. on February 13th as well as the GGHI Annual Meeting and Meet the City Administrators Business Forum Lunch on February 20th.
