Construction Leadership Council

CLC BIlliards Tourney Trophy

The Construction Leadership brings together all elements of the industry – architects, engineers, general contractors, specialty contractors, and associated businesses and organizations – to build a more united construction industry.

It provides tomorrow’s construction industry leaders with an opportunity to share ideas about issues the construction industry faces and industry knowledge to meet the challenges ahead…and it does this in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.

The Oregon-Columbia Chapter has two active Construction Leadership Councils, in Portland and in Medford/Rogue Valley. For information on the Rogue Valley council, click here.

Portland Construction Leadership Council

The Portland CLC meets 10 times per year and has a great mix of professional development, networking, and community service.

The Portland CLC has a technology sub committee, which presents technology information to the CLC and the chapter as requested, and typically meets in advance of presentations. This sub-committee is open to anyone with an interest in technology.

March 8: Preparing and Serving Dinner at the Valley Homestead Shelter in Vancouver

Each spring we meet to prepare and serve dinner for this shelter for homeless families and are able to give a family a well-deserved night off. For those not comfortable in the kitchen, we also run a Bingo game for the kids and parents. If you are interested in helping, contact Karla Holland, 503-685-8319. We typically meet to carpool to the shelter as parking is limited.
