Coeur d’Alene Reservation, ID

Is your business or organization looking for someone to cater a holiday gathering? If so, look no further. The Senior Class of Lakeside High School has been approved to take an educational and historically enriched trip to New York City and Boston. Each student must earn approximately $2,000 each and they have already made deposits from their own earnings. The students are committed to earning the funds and are looking forward to this once in a lifetime chance to visit an area of our country where they have never been.

If you would like to help the students raise the money necessary for this trip and would like to enjoy a scrumptious meal at the same time, please contact Diane Harp at 686-2152. She or one of the students can help you find a date and also discuss potential menu choices with you. A wonderful home cooked meal of Lasagna, Salad, French Bread, and dessert could be yours for the low cost of $12 a plate.

Idaho Family Reading week is November 11-17. The statewide theme is “So much to see, so much to do@your library.”

The Plummer Public Library is planning a family night with refreshments and a travel slide show hosted by Lakeside High student Alexis Fanning on Thursday, November 15th at 6:30 p.m. There will also be a prize drawing for a Creaative Zen V Plus MP3Player. Tickets for the drawing are available at the library now.

The Vision Launch was held on September 27th at the Plummer Community Center. Forty-five community members discussed the issues and concerns which came out of the Visioning Rally. These included a lack of support for educaiton, a lack of investment in the future of the community, a lack of community pride, a non-inclusive environment, a lack of connection between the communities, youth issues and concerns for young people, Tribal and local governments not working together, a lack of future for the children in the community, a division within the community, and a lack of relationships between people.

Four Action Teams were formed to work on issues so that the vision can become reality.
