New volunteers have joined the effort, bringing fresh ideas and energy, which is helping to grow the team. Their contributions are proving to be essential as everyone shares a unified goal of securing the future of Mt. Bachelor for the community. The spirit of collaboration continues to drive the initiative, with local businesses such as Sunriver Brewing and Haven Co-working Reimagined offering resources and support.

Another milestone is the launch of the project’s website, which will serve as a hub for information and updates. Though the website is still in the process of fully going live, the community can now access it at https://mtbachelorcommunity.com, with more updates expected soon. The site is an important tool for spreading the word and rallying more support.

Looking ahead, the team is planning a Community Kickoff Event at Drake Park on October 12. This event is expected to build even more momentum, bringing together supporters for a day of celebration and excitement. In addition, the organizers are preparing to open a corporate bank account to accept donations and cover startup expenses, with a GoFundMe campaign in the works.

Finally, the team encourages the community to get involved by spreading the word, volunteering for events, and supporting financially as the project moves forward. Every contribution, no matter how small, will help bring Mt. Bachelor into the hands of the community. The project is gaining steam, but there is still much work to be done, and the team is grateful for the continued support.
