tourism through Travel Medford, the largest Destination Marketing Organization (DMO) in Southern Oregon Travel Medford, in partnership with the City of Medford, has been promoting Medford’s pride and beauty for many years now. Agritourism, restaurants, wineries, breweries, attractions, local events, conventions, and sports tournament events, abound in Medford and the Rogue Valley. The Travel Medford team is working year-round to promote them all, creating an economic engine for many of our members. The Chamber also diversifies itself from many other Chambers nationwide by acting and speaking on behalf of businesses, especially in an official capacity. We travel to Oregon’s state capitol each full legislative session to repre- sent Southern Oregon’s business issues. Our Chamber’s pro-business agenda is discussed with legislative leaders in Salem to ensure a
vibrant future. With many of our members busy running their businesses, we monitor all legislations proposed at the local, state, and federal levels. We also have a Legislative Action Team that reviews important business issues. They recom- mend, to the Chamber Board of Directors, when to weigh in or not when critical to business suc- cess. Our political action committee also known as the Chamber PAC comprises an independent Board of Trustees dedicated to supporting and advocating for pro-business candidates regard- less of party affiliation. Thank you to BBSI for making this video pos- sible and helping us shine the light on The Chamber’s mission and objectives.
