The Board of Directors meets monthly, except in August and sometimes December. Board members support the goals of the organization with their time and talent.

In 2011, the sisters who own the Vista property, which is adjacent to the Refuge headquarters, decided that they would leave the property to the Refuge as a legacy. It is a historic property and was part of the timbering industry that held the area lands before the Refuge was established in the late 1970s. On Thursday, November 17, the Friends Board will meet at Refuge headquarters from 10:00 to noon. All are welcome to attend. After the meeting we will all walk over to see the Vista property. Bring a picnic lunch and join the visit.  |
