Had the opportunity to help support the Oregon State Student Veterans Association at their Women in the Military Appreciation forum last night. A panel of wonderful women veterans including our own Trudy Salerno, answered questions regarding their service and the difficulties that came with being a woman in the military.

Earlier this month we were able to spend some time up at the Monroe Cemetery clearing some land for the future Urn Garden they are putting in. Dug out a lot of rock and root balls, made a big pile of firewood if anyone is interested. The cemetery association will be selling it to help raise funds for future projects. Just reach out and we will get you in touch with the right people.
