Note from the Director
What can I say about summers in Cottage Grove? They are simply spectacular! Since
there aren’t enough words to express the experiences someone can have here during the
summer, I thought sharing a few pictures would be a better way to tell our story…
We hope you continue to enjoy the many wonderful things that go on in Cottage
Grove all summer long. Thank you for supporting the Chamber of Commerce and
other organizations that are dedicated to creating a strong, prosperous family-friendly
community.
Travis Palmer, Executive Director, Cottage Grove Area Chamber of Commerce
