Spring Update

The Columbia Gorge chapter met in February and in March.  We are now up to 19 paid members.  Three members attended the state convention and really enjoyed the OSU tie-in, especially having the collegiate members present.  We discussed sponsoring the local “Bull Tour” again and the annual OWA auction.  We have a $500 scholarship application for high school seniors that will be distributed this spring.  We will again send a local teacher to SAI, partnering with the Wasco County Soil and Water Conservation District.  We will meet later this spring to discuss our dessert fund-raiser in August for Vintage Dufur Days.
