Drop box installed
The Grand Ronde Tribal Police Department, 9655 Grand Ronde Road,
now has a medication drop box located in the front lobby.
Lobby hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.
The drop box is for any prescribed or over-the-counter medication.
If the containers are too large to fit in the drop box, please repackage
them in a zip-lock plastic bag. Tribal Police employees cannot handle
the medications so the person dropping them off must repackage them.
Needles and liquids are not allowed in the drop box.
Tribal Police suggest mixing liquid medications with cat litter or coffee
grounds and then throwing them away with the household trash.
For more information, call 503-879-1821.
Veterans Royalty
Veterans Royalty works with the Veterans Special Event Board (Veter-
ans SEB). They attend powwows, parades, fundraisers, meetings and other
events with the Veterans SEB and the Honor Guard. They interact with and
represent all veterans. They also work with the Grand Ronde Royalty court
during events and activities such as Restoration, parades and fundraiser. The
Veterans royalty should know what a veteran is and the different military
branches.
When veterans royalty attend events, they are expected to stay for the entire
duration of the event. This includes helping to set up events, meetings and
parades and dancing during Grand Entry, inter-Tribals and staying until
the flags are retired. Veterans Royalty should have their own regalia and be
willing and able to dance.
