Smoke Signals 12 dl p i 7tlj annMl -?l Welcome to th Community of 'Ml GRAND RONDE J f ... w , j r If f ' Welcome to Grand Ronde For the past several months, a committee of community members have been working on creating "Welcome to Grand Ronde" signs to be placed at the outskirts of town. Four signs will be erected. Funding for this project came in part from bingo fund-raisers at Spirit Mountain Casino (through the Willamina and Sheridan Chambers of Com merce). Tribal Council also generously donated partial funding for the signs, as well as the land the signs are located on. The signs are located on Hwy. 18 near Fire Hall Road; facing east on Hwy. 18 before the Casino; and 2 signs (pictured above) on Hwy. 22 near Grand Ronde Road. Cindy Lessick from Willamina created the colorful signs. The committee who worked hard raising money includes: Sheila Herber, Carol Larsen, Perri McDaniel, Barbara Lake, Margo Mercier, Leonette Galligher, Shirlijeane Abel, Marilyn Porter, Vivian DeMary, Shelley Hanson, Jessie Brann, Jan Reibach Jr., and Jackie Provost.
