The resume says events. Here is the run of show.
Twenty years of events, from a weekly member breakfast to a climate summit held alongside COP24. Some were big. Some raised real money. Most were Tuesday mornings that had to go right anyway. Here is the record.
Cruisin' Sherwood. 20,000 people, one small town.
Nancy chaired the Cruisin' Sherwood Classic and Custom Car Show as CEO of the Sherwood Area Chamber of Commerce in Sherwood, Oregon. It was the largest event in town, with 20,000 attendees, regional NBC coverage, charity fundraising built in, and Nancy on the mic as live emcee. An Oregonian in Australia once said he was from Sherwood. The reply: "Like where Cruisin' Sherwood is?"
