Morrow County(News release from the SAGE Center) The Port of Morrow is thrilled to announce the grand dedication of the SAGE Event Center, an exciting expansion of the SAGE Center, set to provide 15,000 square feet of versatile meeting space designed to foster community development and educational initiatives. The dedication ceremony will take place on November 15th at 5:30 PM at the SAGE Center, located at 101 Olson Rd NE Boardman, OR 97818.
