July Jubilee Ambassador Court

City of North Bend release - North Bend proudly welcomes Karen Lu, Addison Horning, Amanda Chen and Tania Aguirre as members of the 2026 July Jubilee Ambassador Court. The City of North Bend proudly introduced and crowned the 2026 North Bend July Jubilee Ambassador Court during the City Council meeting on Tuesday, July 14, 2026. The 2026 court members are: Karen Lu, Addison Horning, Amanda Chen, & Tania Aguirre. July Jubilee is one of North Bend’s most cherished community traditions. The festival began in 1983 as North Bend prepared to celebrate its 80th year as an incorporated city. Its roots also reflect an important chapter in local history, when residents reaffirmed North Bend’s independent identity following an unsuccessful effort to consolidate the community with neighboring Coos Bay. What began as a celebration of North Bend’s history, independence and hometown pride has grown into an annual festival that brings residents, families, businesses and visitors together for a weekend of community activities and entertainment. Members of the July Jubilee Ambassador Court play an important role during the festival and throughout the year. They welcome residents and visitors, participate in community celebrations, represent North Bend at local and regional events and serve as positive role models for other young people. The City congratulates Karen, Addison, Amanda and Tania on their selection and thanks them for their willingness to represent North Bend with enthusiasm, leadership and community pride. Please join us in congratulating the 2026 North Bend July Jubilee Ambassador Court
