Welcome to City Club of Central Oregon

–

Our mission is “to build a conscious and civic minded community through dialog, education and research that results in responsible civic engagement.” As a 501 ©3 non-profit, we are led by the City Club of Central Oregon board of directors, the executive director and our committees. While we are based in Bend, Oregon many of our programs focus on issues impacting Crook, Deschutes and Jefferson counties. At City Club of Central Oregon, we are committed to fostering an environment of civility that welcomes everyone. Uniqueness is powerful and being inclusive allows us to build conscious and civic-minded community through dialogue, education and research.

Join us at our next event!

“Let me tell you a little something about us [City Club]. We don’t agree on everything. We disagree on everything and that is our strength. The one thing we do agree on is civility and we agree on having the conversation and keeping the conversation going.”
Bill Buchanan, partner, Buchanan Schmid, llc

“What is most important to me about City Club is that not everyone agrees on issues. Their role, their goal is to bring people together and have the conversation  and problem solve.”
