We are putting out a third request and special appeal to everyone.  We hope our members are able to help us with these matters:

Easter Baskets –

Help us to make Easter a special time for the Cypress House & the Nest.

We alerted everyone last week of the special wreath on Leslie Walker’s porch (check the Membership directory for her address) to help us fill the the Easter baskets.  There remains still 13 eggs on the wreath.  The eggs will explain what is needed in order to fill the Easter baskets.  Please stop by and pick up one or more and return by Thursday, March 18 of next week?  Baskets then can be assembled and delivered to HQ.

As always, we appreciate the generosity of the Cypress membership for giving these young people such a happy, fun holiday experience.  The filled, beautifully wrapped baskets show these young people that others care.

Cypress Dinners —

We need help for April 21, May 5, May 19, June 2, June 16 & June 30th.

We are in still in need of members to to either sign up individually or team up and help us.  You can call Jan Bliss at (503) 539-9095 or email her at jantbliss@aol.com. or sign the clipboard on Leslie’s porch.  To-date your board has provided these meals and everything has been going very well so far. We are hoping others will help out?

 They don’t have a lot of room for leftovers, so we shouldn’t make large amounts.  Dinners have been an entrée, maybe a salad or other side dish and, dessert.  Dinners are to be dropped off on the Cypress House front porch between noon and 4:00 p.m.  There is a cooler available on the porch.  Put dinners in the cooler, ring the doorbell, and you are done!

 

Thank you again all!
