BEO "Teaching Children to Save" and Earth Month shrub plantings

Chelsie Messenger from the Bank of Eastern Oregon presented "Teaching Children to Save" at the beginning of yesterday's homeschool program. Then we made Earth Day bracelets and walked up to the Bill Todd Memorial to plant shrubs-Oregon Grape and Bailey Red Dogwood. Thank you to BEO, Gray Family Foundation, NRCS, and Sherman County Prevention.
