Patrick Lumber Hosts Successful Open House at Timber Hall

March 15, 2024 (Philomath. Oregon)

For Immediate Release:

Patrick Lumber Co. proudly welcomed 170 guests to its annual St. Patrick’s Day Open House on
Friday, March 15, at their Philomath headquarters building “Timber Hall” located inside Patrick
Lumber Manufacturing. The event celebrated the company’s rich heritage in the heart of
Oregon’s lumber industry, offering a blend of Irish-themed festivities and insights into secondary
lumber manufacturing.

The Timber Hall, a timber framed structure, perched atop a picturesque hill overlooking Patrick
Lumber Co.’s 40-acre facility, served as the perfect backdrop for this year’s celebration. Simply
decorated to highlight the natural wood used throughout the building, the venue radiated the
festive spirit of St. Patrick’s Day, while the surprisingly warm weather created an inviting
atmosphere for guests to enjoy.

The highlight of the event was the guided mill tours, offering visitors a firsthand look at Patrick
Lumber Manufacturing and the process of transforming raw timber into high-quality lumber
products.

In addition to showcasing its existing facilities, guests were also invited to tour the new
hardwood mill, for which the company recently secured a $1,000,000 grant. This soon-to-be
expanded facility aims to be the only commercial sized hardwood mill in Oregon that isn’t
primarily cutting Alder.

Chelsea Zuccato, East Coast Sales Manager at Patrick Lumber Co., expressed her enthusiasm for
the event, stating, “Our first St. Patrick’s Day open house at our Philomath headquarters was
historic. We hosted valued agents and bankers, suppliers, customers, and vendors—in the past,
the event has been offsite and in our downtown Portland office. It makes sense that we shifted
the event to Philomath to our new headquarters building. We’re excited to continue this
tradition at Timber Hall surrounded by the lumber we sell every day, with the people who make
it possible!”

Mark Gray, West Coast Sales Manager, echoed the sentiment, remarking, “The St. Patrick’s Day
Open House at Timber Hall was a big success. It was a pleasure to see our industry partners
come together to celebrate our shared commitment to excellence.”
Patrick Lumber Co. remains dedicated to fostering strong relationships within the lumber
industry and beyond. While the event was held at the Philomath headquarters this year, the
company continues to maintain a satellite office in Portland, ensuring accessibility for its valued
partners.
As Patrick Lumber Co. looks to the future, its commitment to innovation, sustainability, and
customer satisfaction remains unwavering. The St. Patrick’s Day Open House serves as a
testament to the company’s continued growth and its enduring legacy in the lumber industry.
