Our Story
On December 12, 2008, our community experienced a horrible tragedy. Since then, we have expressed our strength and our values in ways that make us “Woodburn Proud.” We formed “Woodburn Proud, Inc.” in an effort to create a permanent vehicle to express our strengths and values as we strive to make Woodburn an even better place to be.

“We are going to focus on love. We’re going to tell the community that this is the time to stand together. We’re going to tell the community that Woodburn is better than this.”
“We vowed in the police department to never forget Tom Tennant, to never forget Bill Hakim, and never forget the injuries that Scott Russell and others endured as a result of that event.”
