Sustain the Dream at the 24th Annual Oregon Governor's Conference on Tourism April 6-8, 2008
Red Lion Hotel on the River in Portland

Today in Oregon is like no other.

  Today in Oregon is like Oregon itself--unique, wide open and full of possibility.  How did we get to this moment in time, as colleagues, partners, leaders and friends?  Through our shared vision of endless potential, through our hope that building a stronger tourism industry one destination, one attraction, one fishing guide, one beach, one bed and breakfast and one mountain at a time, will lead to a greater whole and the greater good, and to a bright future for our children Oregon has always teemed with talent, guts, initiative-folks who dream big and have the energy to make it happen.  Our job is to channel this, focus it, and join all those singular passions together to sustain our already vibrant industry.  It's our job to Sustain the Dream in Oregon, every minute of every day, 365 days a year.
