The Oregon Heritage All-Star program is a way to recognize communities that make the most of their heritage resources. Oregon Heritage created a list of heritage related criteria by which the program can be measured.
A Heritage All-Star Community meets 15 of the 20 criteria. To receive designation the community must apply using the form provided here. The application is reviewed by Oregon Heritage staff and the designation is approved by the Oregon Heritage Commission.
All-Stars receive special benefits.
- a certificate for display
- two metal signs for display
- the designation noted on the Travel Oregon web sitea logo to use in publications and marketing materials
Application Deadline: April 11, 2013
Communities that meet 10 of the criteria are eligible to receive specific training and technical support to attain All-Star level. To receive this assistance, fill out and submit an Application of Interest.
