Celebrating Over 28 Years of Building a Healthy Community

More than 28 years ago, community leaders joined around a single collaborative vision - to diversify our economy.  The EDC that sprang from this union still operates by the same basic tenants and values: to be the voice of business in creating and sustaining a healthy community; to be strong and bold, not weak and reckless; and to be a vital part of the economy that benefits from the EDC's efforts.

Today, just over 28 years later, we are proud to still reflect that community leadership and spirit, and we honor those who set this valuable organization in motion and the leadership who maintain those efforts today.

Mission

The Thurston County Economic Development Council was founded just over 28 years ago with the mission of creating a vital and sustainable economy throughout our County that supports the livelihood and values of our residents.

Our economic development team specializes in identifying opportunity and applying effort that results in creating a vibrant and vital economy. We do this by:

• Connecting local businesses with experts and resources that help them remain competitive
• Creating and delivering strategic messages that attract new investment to our community
• Working with our community partners to enhance our collective prosperity and encourage our economic future
• Participating regionally to ensure that Thurston County plays an appropriate role on the regional economic stage
