The Fall Winter Pledge Drive is underway! The Wind Storm hit on the afternoon of the first day of the regularly-scheduled drive, so the three stations of SPR postponed the necessary fundraiser to January.
From Thursday through Saturday, we are looking for 100 new members to meet a $5000 challenge from the Kongsgaard-Goldman Foundation in honor of the Methow Conservancy. Any time is a great time to become a member or renew your membership.
Photos below are reverse chronological order. Refresh and come back to see more of the first full pledge drive from the Fire Station!
