Among her special interests,
Sandra enjoyed needle work; quilting;
knitting; doll making; lace making; hand

in Vernonia, Oregon; her daughter and
son-in-law, Jane and Mitch Thompson,

daughter-in-law, John and Angela

In fact, the fundraising has
already begun. Thanks to a very
generous donation from TNW Firearms,
Inc., located right here in Vernonia,
the Committee has begun selling 800
raffle tickets at $10 each for a 9mm
Aero Survival Rifle. (See ad on page
11.) Tickets are available at Napa Auto
Parts, True Value, Strassel Automotive
in Banks, Sentry Market and Vernonia
Hardware. The funds raised will go
towards operations of the Jamboree.
The Committee also intends to sponsor
a hunter safety class for local residents,
organized by Eric Larke, Don Shulte,
Joel Glass and Frank Cieloha.
The hope is that with a solid
funding base the Committee can draw
in more events and activities and better
promote the event to draw better crowds.
One last thing the survey asked:
What improvements to Jamboree would
people like to see? At the top of that list:
more kid’s activities, more vendors, the
return of the car show and more music.
From what I can see after
attending the most recent Committee
meeting in October, the Committee has
heard you loud and clear. They discussed

and agreed to lower vendor rates with
the hope of attracting more vendors for
the weekend. They have already put
out a call for, and have heard back from,
numerous new musicians, with the idea
of expanding the musical offerings next
year. They were also discussing how to
attract or create more kid’s activities and
finding a suitable spot for the car show.
There are a lot of fresh and new
ideas being generated by this committee
and it is very exciting time for the
Friendship Jamboree and Logging
Show. It is an integral part of our
community and it takes many people
in our community to organize it and
make it happen. There are lots of ways
you can help. One is by buying a raffle
ticket and supporting it with needed
funding. Another is by joining the
Jamboree Committee and volunteering
to help make some of the events more
successful. There are lots of jobs that
need doing and lots of opportunities to
volunteer.
