Carrie Schulstad

I opened a small business in Downtown Camas in 2004 and quickly caught the community development bug! I was on the founding DCA Board in 2009 and have been the Executive Director since 2014. I absolutely love the transformation that has happened in Downtown Camas, and I’m empowered by working with others and creating change in our community. I also sit on our Camas Farmer’s Market Board and appreciate the opportunity to increase food access, health education and chances to meaningfully connect in our town.

How long have you served on the board?

I’ve been the Executive Director since 2014.

What do you love about Camas?

I love the connections that happen, the hard work ethic and the love of learning in our community.

What do you enjoy about being a part of the Camas Community?

I enjoy the camaraderie, the creativity and the ability to make a difference in a small town.

What is your favorite memory in Camas?

I have many! I would say the Wedding Affair to Remember First Friday experience with Nick and Tami Calais! And now, seeing them bring both their boys to First Fridays.
