Why Josephine Events?

Imagine scrolling through your phone after the fact, seeing photos of the Back to the 50s car show or the Boatnik Parade, and kicking yourself for missing out. That's the frustration of Josephine's vibrant event scene—it's packed with community gems, but they're buried across chamber sites, tourism pages, and local calendars. Briefsy changes that: we monitor Josephine's official sources like the Grants Pass Chamber and Visit Grants Pass daily, pulling in recurring festivals, music series, and traditions that match YOUR interests. No more digging through noise—you'll wake up to a single email with only the events you'll actually attend, like summer concerts or holiday parades, plus whatever else excites you (think Rogue Valley wine tastings or national news). Feel connected, excited, and always in the know, without lifting a finger.
