Solar Oregon is once again fulfilling the Statewide Tour Coordinator role providing coordination and media support to tour organizers, and connecting local tours to regional and national tour efforts promoting green building and solar strategies.


The 2007 Tour will be exciting!  Three new communities - including Salem, Coos Bay, and Rogue Valley – are joining the statewide effort for a total of 17 tours.  Solar Oregon has also embarked upon developing a common identity and Sponsorship Program for the Oregon Green and Solar Tours.  If you are interested in becoming a sponsor please contact Michael VanDerwater.


Participating communities are listed below. Cities with links have 2007 tour information available. Please stay tuned, other communities will be announced soon.
