PARR Lumber Damascus Celebrates Ribbon Cutting for New Multi-Service Branch

A company that has been supplying contractors and home owners for nearly a century celebrated a ribbon cutting for its latest branch, which will combine its dizzying array of services under one roof.

PARR Lumber Damascus, 19855 Sunnyside Road, celebrated a ribbon cutting Wednesday afternoon, April 16, for its newest location (the 47th in the Pacific Northwest). It is also the third location regionally, with two other branches in Rockwood and Gresham.
