MAYOR'S MESSAGE Shared Traditions Continue to Unite and Strengthen Our Region Throughout our region, community events continue to remind us how important shared traditions and local partnerships are to the strength of our communities First, I’m honored to participate in the 119th Florence Rhododendron Festival Grand Floral Parade on Sunday, May 17. This year’s theme, β€œA Gathering With a Good Heart,” perfectly captures what these long-standing traditions mean to our coastal communities. The Rhododendron Festival has welcomed generations of families and visitors for more than a century and continues to serve as a reminder that small-town traditions remain strong because people continue showing up for one another. Events like the Rhody Days Parade do not happen by accident. They are made possible by volunteers, civic organizations, schools, businesses, artists, performers, public safety personnel, and countless community members working together toward something positive and welcoming. The parade lineup itself reflects the broad partnerships that strengthen our region, with local governments, schools, nonprofits, youth groups, and cultural organizations all participating together. These gatherings matter because they create connection. They bring together longtime residents and new families, neighbors and visitors, children and seniors. In local government, we often talk about infrastructure, services, and economic development, but community spirit is just as important. Festivals and public celebrations are part of the social fabric that helps communities thrive. They remind us that when people come together with shared purpose and pride, we build stronger, healthier, and more resilient places to live. That same spirit of collaboration and community partnership is on full display at the Mayfly Festival on May 16 at Mingus Park in Coos Bay. Organized by the Coos Watershed Association and an impressive network of partners, the festival has become a meaningful celebration of environmental stewardship, education, and community involvement. The event brings together organizations, schools, tribal partners, agencies, volunteers, artists, and local businesses to help families learn more about our watershed, wildlife, and natural environment while creating a fun and welcoming experience for all ages. The Mayfly Festival is exactly the kind of cooperative effort that strengthens a community. It demonstrates what can happen when organizations and individuals work together around a shared goal β€” in this case, protecting and appreciating the natural resources that define our region and support our quality of life. Through hands-on science activities, live music, local food, educational exhibits, and volunteer opportunities, the festival helps connect people not only to nature, but also to one another. I encourage everyone to take part in these events, support the volunteers and organizers who make them possible, and spend time celebrating the unique character of our coastal communities. Whether you are cheering along the parade route in Florence or exploring the exhibits and activities at Mingus Park, these events are reminders that community is built through participation, partnership, and shared experiences. I look forward to seeing many of you there. -Joe Benetti, Mayor of Coos BayPhotos from Coos Bay - City Government's post
