We had an incredible time kicking off the Hillsboro Hops season at Opening Night in their brand-new ballpark! The stadium is thoughtfully designed, full of energy, and a true asset to our region.

We’re especially excited to be a sponsor this season and to support an organization that brings so much community spirit and connection to the area. There’s nothing quite like baseball season in the Pacific Northwest, and this new venue makes it even more special.

Here’s to a great season ahead, go Hops! ⚾

👂Did you hear?

The Oregon Senate recently approved a funding package to renovate the Moda Center, Oregon’s largest indoor arena and a central piece of the Albina–Rose Quarter redevelopment in Portland.

What's next: The proposal is expected to move next to the Oregon House of Representatives and Governor Kotek for final approval. If adopted, the renovation project would represent a significant investment in regional infrastructure and economic development.

Renovations are expected to take place over several years and are intended to help position Portland to continue hosting major sporting and entertainment events.

The Portland Metro Chamber Annual Meeting on June 24 at the Moda Center will include discussion about the project and its role in the region’s broader economic development plans.
