GENERAL MEETING - WEDNESDAY, MARCH 24, 2010 - 10:00 AM 

 

Our speaker will be Marsha Caranci.  She will be giving a program on the Grand Jury, the only independent "watchdog" investigative body in Shasta County, and its importance to the community.  Composed of 19 citizens who serve for a one-year term, the Grand Jury monitors the performance of the county, cities and other local governing entities.

District 1: Redding

 

District 2: Centerville, French Gulch, Happy Valley, Igo/Ono, Keswick, Platina, Shasta, South Redding, Verde Vale

 "ONE CAN AT A TIME" DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

 

foodOur food donations made a huge difference last year --- we would like to continue helping hungry children and families that depend on a bit of help from food pantries at the end of the month.  If you wish to participate, please bring a can of food to the General Meeting.  Brown paper bags and plastic grocery bags are also needed. 

 

We donated to Bridges to Community in January, a small non-profit that doesn't receive a lot of help, and People of Progress in February.  In March we'll donate to the Salvation Army.  No food drive in April as that is our Fashion Show.
