We are pleased you are interested in our
community.
Winston, as do many other communities in Oregon, relies on
volunteers to do a great many things. An example is the
Dial-A-Ride program which provides rides for transportation
disadvantaged people. Volunteers are also involved on the Winston
Budget Committee, Winston Planning Commission, Winston Park
Board, and the Winston Traffic Safety Commission. We encourage
public attendance at each meeting of the above groups as well as
at our semi-monthly City Council meetings. If you would like more
information about any of these, please call (541) 679-6739,
or ask at City Hall, 201 NW Douglas Blvd.
or at 43° 7´ 18" N 123° 25´ 3" W (43.121532,
