honoring sue prichard
Sue Prichard has played a critical role as an advocate for revitalizing our downtown core as she has always felt that a good downtown is an important reflection of the larger community. Her volunteer work spread to other land use issues that were and still are critical, current projects in the City of Eugene’s work plan, helping to plan the future of Eugene’s inevitable growth.
The Eugene Chamber of Commerce is proud to help honor Sue’s commitment to our community and her career achievements with the First Citizen Award.
