Membership

After the challenges of the pandemic, the 2023 tourism season looks forward to a return to another “normal” adventurous year when we can share everything Southern Oregon with visitors.

In July 2023, TSO renewed its two-year contract with Travel Oregon to manage the tourism marketing funds that are collected statewide (RCTP funds) for Southern Oregon. This is strong, secure funding–however, without the support of our membership, we can’t make our organization as self-sufficient as we’d like. Our 2023/2023 membership fee is $360 for businesses and partners, unchanged for many years now. If you have additional businesses they can be listed and use the benefits for $180 dollars more.

As always we are offering more benefits for you, your employees, and your business:

• More than 100,000 unique visitors a year to southernoregon.org
• Social Media campaigns to support your city and business
• Popular Southern Oregon Vacation Guide distributed across the state
• FAM Tours for travel writers and tour operators to generate effective earned media
• Industry trainings and workshops

As a reminder, memberships with Travel Southern Oregon, a 501(c)(6) organization, are not deductible as charitable contributions on federal income tax returns. You may be able to deduct up to 98% of your dues as a business expense on your U.S. taxes. Consult your tax advisor with any questions.

It’s an exciting time to be in Southern Oregon. We continue to benefit from a strong economy and will take advantage of all the incredible opportunities that our strong tourism industry has to offer. We look forward to serving your business in the years to come.
