About
The Milton-Freewater Area Chamber of Commerce and the Milton-Freewater Downtown Alliance were originally completely separate entities. The two organizations often found themselves working alongside each other on events and projects. They both had the vision of a community working together to create a vibrant and prosperous Milton-Freewater, where everyone benefits. They both wanted to create an inviting, family-friendly, and inclusive climate for new and existing businesses through improvements to infrastructure and increased promotion. In Fall 2019, it became obvious that the two organizations partnering together would streamline business functions and shift their focus full-time to community building.
On January 21, 2020, the Joint Operations Agreement was adopted by both Boards of Directors, and the Milton-Freewater Chamber Downtown Alliance was born! Due to COVID, it wasn't until the Fall of 2021 that they started implementing this agreement and, since that time, much progress has been made building a strong foundation for this joint group.
On April 11th of 2022, a Memorandum of Understanding between the two organizations and the City of Milton-Freewater was signed as an official mark of recognition and partnership with the City. -
