The story
The Carlton Business Association (CBA) is dedicated to supporting local businesses in Carlton, Oregon. The association coordinates monthly board meetings, member events, promotional campaigns, and newsletter updates to foster economic vitality, volunteer opportunities, and community engagement in the Carlton area.
We are a small town with a big impact in food, wine and tourism. We have attracted restaurants and tasting rooms that give people good reasons to keep coming back. We also have a strong business association that ensures the businesses remain connected and supported.
Why should I join the CBA?
The CBA is tasked with supporting the economic vitality, beauty and marketing of this great little town. We have a thriving food & beverage focus that propels our mainstreet and events, driving foot traffic and bringing visibility to our community. Becoming a member is the best way to stay engaged with the Carlton business community and stay up to date on CBA hosted opportunities and events.
How do I know what membership level is right for me?
Every member receives the same benefits. However, businesses who are located on or near main street with a physical presence receive more visibility from the CBA due to the nature of our events and promotions. Because of this, there is a higher price placed on retail businesses, restaurants, and tasting rooms than service based businesses.
How can I cancel my membership?
Members can terminate annual memberships at any time, however membership dues are non-refundable.
Can I access the member directory?
When you become a member of CBA, you will receive access to a secure member page. Within this page you will have access to a full member directory, complete with the names and contact information for all business owners.
What networking opportunities are there?
CBA hosts two membership meetings per year. This is a great opportunity to network and see the depth and breadth of our business community. We also host round table discussions with different business categories such as lodging partners, tasting rooms and building owners to understand business needs and use this information to influence our strategic plans.
Do I have to be located in Carlton to be a member?
To be a member of the CBA, you do not have to reside in Carlton and neither does your business. In fact, we welcome service and tourism businesses that can offer resources to our local community and drive visitors to our main street.
Is this membership exclusive to businesses? Can I be a member as an individual?
Yes! We have a “Friends of CBA” contribution. This provides access to our emails, newsletter and pertinent updates that impact our businesses.
