Happy Friday! Today's Creswell Hero is Steve Carmichael, the Vice President of Creswell First! If you would like to nominate someone for our Creswell Heroes series, just fill out this form: https://forms.gle/kvk5sp4r7HnGAxRJ6

Creswell Heroes. Steve Carmichael, Vice President of Creswell First! Steve Carmichael, a retired Director of Juvenile Justice Services for Lane County, has spent the past decade making a significant impact on the Creswell community through public service, local projects, and volunteer efforts. His involvement began in 2012 when he supported his friend, Dave Stram, in his successful mayoral campaign. Carmichael helped organize the campaign and continued to offer guidance during re-election. Inspired by his experience as past-president of United Way of Lane County, he helped establish Creswell First in 2016, the town’s community foundation. As the foundation’s first Board Chairman, Carmichael played a key role in raising over $100,000 for local organizations and launching the "One Stop Giving Program," which has raised more than $35,000 for community causes. Carmichael also led a men’s Bible Study Fellowship group at Creswell Presbyterian Church, which he describes as a deeply meaningful part of his life. One of his proudest achievements is the transformation of the original Creswell Schoolhouse into a community meeting center, which now serves as an affordable venue for local events. Carmichael’s work reflects his commitment to fostering a collaborative, caring community. “I feel privileged to live in Creswell,” he says, and his contributions will continue to benefit the town for years to come.
