Collaborate, Create and Connect by Joining the Highlands Council Communications Committee
Welcome to the Highlands Council Communications Committee!
We are a passionate group of volunteers (and two Highlands Council staff members) dedicated to fostering connections and engagement within Issaquah Highlands. The committee, formed by the Highlands Council Board of Trustees, meets every other month to explore new and creative ways to reach our neighbors through communications and marketing strategies!
At each meeting, we dive into brainstorming sessions, conjuring up fresh and captivating story ideas for the next edition of our beloved Community Connect magazine. It’s a collaborative space where we share unique neighborhood stories, suggest timely topics and offer input on each issue. Occasionally, we contribute our own writing and photography as well.

If you are an avid reader of the Issaquah Highlands Weekly E-News, Highlands Youth E-News or official social media channels, this group is perfect for you! We are always looking for new committee members to offer ideas for engaging content online as well as suggestions for boosting analytics.
Additionally, the committee is focused on marketing efforts, constantly reviewing the Issaquah Highlands calendar of events and creatively plotting ways to increase participation while ensuring every neighbor feels a part of our thriving community. But our mission doesn’t stop there. We also discuss opportunities for future events, always eager to craft new ways to bring people together.
Together, we take pride in contributing to the unique stories and connections that make the Issaquah Highlands such a special place.
Join us! We meet every other month, usually on Wednesdays from 5:30-7 p.m. Contact Maddie Coats, Highlands Council communications manager, to learn more.
