The Occidental Community Council is an all-volunteer, non-profit corporation with federal and state tax-exempt status. Our purpose is to meet the unmet needs of people living in and around Occidental. Established in 1986, the Council is governed by a board elected annually from the membership. The Council meets on the third Saturday of each month at the Occidental Community Center from 10:30am until noon, and all are welcome to attend. Each year during the second full weekend in December, the Council sponsors the Annual Holiday Crafts Faire. All proceeds from the Faire are put back into the community.
