or by deposit at any grocery store

will describe the current characteristics of
the county’s residents and those issues
that -they feel are important in their
community. With this knowledge, CAT
can plan effective and efficient programs
that meet the needs of the citizens it
serves. The information requested from
each 'survey will be used for statistical
purpsoes only and w ill remain
confidential. Respondents do not need to
put their names on the survey.
Dorothy White, a representative from
the Vernonia Senior Center will be
available to promote and co-ordinate the
distribution and return of surveys. If
residents have questions about the
survey, they can also call 397-4000 for
more details.
