Iditarod Day ~ Liz Parrish Celebration
There is a big event coming up to recognize and celebrate the return
of our own local Iditarod "musher", Liz Parrish of Rocky Point. This
is a joint project of Klamath Kiwanis, the Herald and News, and the
Running Y Ranch Resort.
June 15th, 11:00 AM – 3:00 PM:
"Iditarod Day" at the Running Y Ranch. Free admission!
Come out to meet the musher and her dogs. Liz Parrish will sign
autographs and her sled dogs will participate in activities with the
kids; a photographer will be on hand to take photographs of kids with
the dogs. There will be vendors and booths, as well. Sled dog "snow
booties" will be available for purchase, a great souvenir of the
Iditarod race. Watch for more information in the Herald and News. This
is a great Father's Day event, so plan to attend!
There will be a silent auction at both locations to raise additional
funds. Donations are now being accepted – sporting goods, artwork,
quilts, electronics and technology, services, gift certificates, etc.
(new, please). If you have anything that you would like to
contribute to the silent auction, or if you are interested in having a
vendor booth, please contact Wendy Millard at:
wendym@... or 882-8078.
Your donations are very much appreciated.
We are hoping for a good community turn-out and participation in these
fun events. Having Klamath County represented by a local "musher" in
the world-famous Iditarod race is likely a once-in-a-lifetime event,
and we are proud of our own local Liz Parrish.
Please pass along this information to your friends and relatives.
Let's get the word out!
Thank you, Wendy Millard, on behalf of the "Iditarod Day" committee
(Klamath Kiwanis, Herald and News, and Running Y Ranch Resort).

Start Making A Reader Today (SMART) – a statewide program working with

a child for ½ hour, helping them read (or reading to the youngest). We
always need volunteers, whether scheduled every week or merely as a
substitute reader when the regular reader is unable to attend. Call
the above numbers for an application or fill out an on-line
application at www.getsmartoregon.org. It will be the most rewarding
hour you ever volunteer! Contact the SMART office at 273-2424 or the
Chiloquin Elementary School at 783-2338.

Chiloquin Branch Library - The library has many ways to get involved
and many fun ways to contribute to your local community. Some
opportunities:

1. Story time: If you would like to read two or three stories to a
small group or preschoolers, and lead them in a simple craft or
activity, the library staff can use your help. Story time is at 1:30
PM on Thursday afternoons during the school year.
2. Summer Reading Program: There are many opportunities during the
summer to help out with this very worthwhile program.
3. Honor collections: these are racks of paperback books, magazines
and audiovisual materials that patrons may check out without a library
card. By offering these collections, more people in the community can
be reached and a greater diversity of materials can be made available
without incurring the costs of cataloging and processing items for the
general collections. The staff would like to have some help in keeping
these racks orderly, attractive and relevant. Check with Wes Stone,
the librarian, for information on how to "adopt a rack".
4. Help with sorting donations.
5. Go through Books for Sale section and tidy it once a month or so.
Stop in at the library and see what they need or give them a call at
783-3315.

Community Resource Committees and their projects. We have a volunteer

different "jobs" and projects. Call 783-7780 between 10 AM and 2 PM
weekdays for further information.

Two Rivers Gallery: The gallery, which is a community project and has
no paid employees, is seeking people to "gallery sit". This involves
talking to people who stop by to browse and shop. You do not need to
be an artist, but if you are, gallery hours reduce the amount of your
commission. We would like a commitment of 2-3 days per month.
Contact the Gallery @ 783-3326.
