1ST ANNUAL STREET FAIR A SUCCESS!
Central Avenue filled with community, color and cars for the first annual Sutherlin Street Fair and Push Drag Race.
When a community comes together, magic happens!
Such has been the case in the Sutherlin Area this
summer. . . Our First Annual Sutherlin Street Fair and
Push Drag Race was an absolute WINNER! In fact, we
are considering making this a two-day event next year.
Drags! You hit it out of the park! Thank you to all the
vendors and participants!
Thank you to every department in the City of Sutherlin
who partnered with the Sutherlin Area Chamber
of Commerce to make this a smooth, safe, fun and
memorable day for our Visitors. Thank you to all the
Sutherlin Area Volunteers and Civic Groups who worked
hand in hand together and made this a huge success.
Thank you to Country City Media for capturing the day
with your personal touch photography and videos. To
enjoy the experience please go to:
www.visitsutherlin.com/streetfair. The event is also
listed under Things to Do on our ever evolving website!
Thank you to Graffiti Week End for including Sutherlin
in your line-up so that we could shine! Thank you to
Gary and Chuck Dagel for your tireless work in the Push
Thank you to Caroline Winders Marketing for your
expertise, design and vision.
Most of all . . . thank you to all our guests who came
from out of state, out of county or just around the
corner and who filled Central Ave with smiles and
eagerness to DISCOVER OUR BACKYARD!

The Sutherlin Stampede and Rodeo
began with an enthusiastic Parade down Central
Ave. Once again, our community lined the streets
and laughter filled the air as the traditional candy was
thrown from the paraders into the crowds!
Sutherlin Area Chamber’s Grand Marshall vehicle was
provided and driven by Fire Lieutenant and Graffiti
Chairman, Mitch Doss. We honored our First Citizens:
Carol Brink and Stewart Fowler as well as our beautiful
Centenarians: Beatrice Dowdy, age 103 and Elsie Sharp,
age 100. Also riding along were Ebony Doss, Chamber
VP Don Randol, DDS and Director Pamela Semas.
Everyone loves a parade — especially when the
Community is Celebrating Success!
