A Message from the CowBettes
Beef for Fathers
A message from the Morrow
County CowBelles. "Father's
Day (June 17) will be here
before you know it. And that
means the number one-man-in-your
-lives deserves something
extra-special. ..probably his
favorite dinner, lots of special
attention, and most likely a
small gift of appreciation for
just being Dad. If you're like
-most people, you rack your
brain each year trying to think
of different and thoughtful
things to give him. But this year
there's a unique and ideal way
to make HIS day one to
remember. Go to your nearest
US or First National Bank of
Day
Oregon and ask for a persona
lized gift certificate for Dad's
favorite cut of choice Oregon
beef. These are available in 5,10
and 15 dollar amounts and may
be redeemed at any grocery
store or meat market in the
USA. A Beef Gift Certificate is a
clever way to make Father's
Day last a little bit longer. He
can eat like a King for several
days, a week, or more." Mrs.
Clista Venard is CowBelle Beef
Certificate chairman. She says,
"Be creative. Find the quickest
way to Dad's heart, with a
dinner especially for him serv
ing his favorite meat. ...with a
gift certificate for Oregon -beef."
