Rose Garden will change its name?
Chris McGowan's makeover of the business operations in Portland are ongoing
Chris McGowan's makeover of the business operations in Portland are ongoing, and include seemingly everything from the team's website, to corporate structure, to suite sales, to sponsorship deals. McGowan is in the preliminary stages of selling the Rose Garden's naming rights. He hired a company called "Premier Partnership" to facilitate the process. They have a list of about 100 businesses -- some local, some national -- that have a likelihood of interest. Three or four presentations have already been scheduled.
