Volunteer of the Month – August
Dawn Alford, Organization Committee
Our August Volunteer of the Month is someone who shines bright and brings a positive energy to each committee meeting. You’ve more than likely seen Dawn volunteering at EDA events, strolling throughout CWU’s campus, or passing by on a local trail. While she is fairly new to the community, she has wasted no time finding her happy places.
We have created a survey regarding downtown and possibilities for future businesses. This survey only takes about 3 minutes to complete.
This Downtown Possibilities Survey was created by the staff and Board of Directors to gain more insight on how the community interacts with downtown and what they would like to see in the future. This information will be utilized for projects including pop-up shops and business recruitment.

What is your Ellensburg story?
Written by:
Molly Jones-Kerchner, Director
I think we can all agree that supporting small and local businesses is important. Something we may struggle to understand is how to do so. Throughout my time with the Ellensburg Downtown Association, I have had the pleasure of being educated on this topic from small business owners themselves. Along the way, I’ve learned many ways to support small businesses.
Volunteer of the Month – May
Cait Dalton
We are happy to feature Cait Dalton as our May Volunteer of the Month. Cait first got involved with the EDA as a Promotions Committee member and has since become the Committee Chair. Recently, Cait also joined the EDA’s Board of Directors. It seems even more fitting to feature Cait at this time, as she is also a wonderful mother to two adorable kiddos, and we want to wish her a happy Mother’s Day all month long!
Steven Townsend- EDA Supporter
If you are involved with downtown Ellensburg, or have been following the construction buzz around town, you are undoubtedly familiar with the name Steve Townsend. Steve and his wife Ruth are heavily involved with downtown Ellensburg committees and programs. They are also two of the partners with Hotel Windrow, a 59-room boutique hotel connected to the recently renovated Elks building.
