We want to connect you to high-speed internet!

The Port of Woodland is currently applying for additional funding that would allow us to connect more homes to our existing fiber optic network, currently operational between Ariel and Cougar. You are receiving this postcard because our records indicate your home or business is either new or you were not connected to broadband during our previous Ariel to Cougar project. We want to get you connected!

If you are not yet connected and want to be, please go to https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/DarkFiber and fill out the information requested. If we are awarded funding, we will contact you with more information about the project and when we will proceed with connecting your neighborhood! The survey is also available at the port’s website, www.portofwoodland.com/darkfiber.

The Port of Woodland was eager to again collaborate with Woodland Public Schools on Career Fair 2026. For the 7th year in a row we had more than 40 partner businesses and organizations join us in giving students access to a glimpse of what their future could look like by engaging in questions, cool gadgets and yes, candy, all in the hopes a spark ignites or a connection is made. This doesn’t happen without our partners (too many to mention in this post - but be on the lookout for more later) devoting time and talent to show up and engage and we are truly grateful for you all. Thank You! But we are also excited to continue this project investing in our future with Superintendent Riley and her team. Looking forward to working on ways to make this program even more meaningful next year.

Dear Businesses:

We are excited to announce the upcoming Woodland Career Exploration Day at Woodland High School on Friday, April 24, 2026. This will be our 7th year partnering with the Woodland School District to introduce students to opportunities in careers that are trade and skill based and do not require a college degree. Over the years, we have fine-tuned this event towards areas of focus and interest of the students. Last year, we focused upon the areas of the school system’s Career and Technical Education platform, which we will continue to utilize this year. Approximately 400-600 students will be participating in this year’s event.

We invite your company to participate in this event that will start at 8 am for setting up and our first students coming through at around 9 am. The event ends approximately at noon. The Port will provide a continental breakfast and a boxed lunch for your business at the event. Tables and chairs are provided as well. There are limited tables with power options, if you want to show videos, use VR, or other technology to illustrate your business.

We are also aware that your business is likely to have positions in multiple areas. You may be a trade business, like a construction company, but have IT/Computer, Accounting, Maintenance/Mechanics, and other trades within your organization. We would like to highlight the broad range of trades and skills within companies, like yours. With your participation, we will be working with you to identify those types of jobs and careers, what type of training, certifications or experience is required and the pay range.

Please complete the survey ASAP. The survey link is: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/CareerFair2026
If you have any issues with the survey, please contact Pam Chace at [email protected] and she will assist you with registration. We appreciate your attention and look forward to your participation in this year’s Woodland Career Exploration event. Further contact, including lunch orders, will be coming out on or before March 21, 2026. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions at [email protected] or 360-225-6555.

Thank you and we look forward to seeing you on April 24th at Woodland High School.

Sincerely,


Debbie Karlsson
Finance Administrator
