Marketing Support Co-op Program

Clackamas County Tourism, the organization representing the county as a visitor destination branded Oregon's Mt. Hood Territory, offers marketing support for tourism businesses through the Marketing Support Co-Op Program, a cooperative advertising program developed to cover a large portion of the cost for businesses to appear on advertising platforms that Clackamas County Tourism has vetted. Tourism partners can select from digital and print placements. Participation is open to tourism-related festivals, events, businesses and experiences in Clackamas County.

As opportunities come available throughout the year, more information and sign-up sheets will be added on this page below. If you don't see details for something you're interested in or still have questions, please get in touch with Annie Austin at annie@mthoodterritory.com for more information. Many opportunities are available on a first come, first served basis. You can sign up for a program as soon as the sign-up form is open (below) to reserve your space, even if you don't plan to run your ads immediately. You will not be billed until your ads are running.

Please note that all opportunities are subject to change, and additional opportunities may become available throughout the year.
