Community Meeting
Thursday we had our board meeting for our community organization, Upriver Community United, Inc. They let me be the President. It is so inspiring to see our motivated volunteers step forward and say, “I’ll do this” or “I’ll take care of that”.
We spent most of the meeting talking about our community festival coming up. It’s the first annual Upriver Pioneer Days in Fernwood, Idaho on July 25th. I posted the detail of the Schedule and stuff on our website calendar at

This is so cool. We’ve got volunteers to mow the lawn at the CAF (Community Ambulance and Fire) building every two weeks all summer. To fix the fence and get everything ready we’re having a workday on July 19th, everyone come and help.
Don’t tell anyone yet, but there’s a rumor that the grant proposal for our Upriver Cell Phone & Broadband towers is almost complete. Five cell phone towers for Upriver. We can bring our Upriver communities out of the 19th century! Looks like Obama’s stimulus money might actually do us some good.
What a kick!
