Colville Horizons to Publish Community Calendar
Posted: Monday, May 24
By Terry Elders When the Colville Lions Club disbanded, Colville Horizons voted to take over the community calendar project that it previously had sponsored. The community calendar, based on a school year, September through August, carries display ads and lists birthday, anniversary and memorial dates.
This project is a fundraiser for Colville Horizons which sponsors many local activities aimed at moving this community towards prosperity. Among these are the Your Big Idea Contest, the IEL Career Closet, and Northeast Washington Business Development Services. The group also promotes early and adult literacy, supports a mentoring program, and will soon maintain a volunteer bank database.
The calendar will hang vertically and measure 11” by 17”. Each page will carry a different photo of a Colville scene or Horizons activity. Display ads will remain the same from month to month, so businesses will have their ads in front of residents for the entire year, September through August.
Businesses interested in display ads should contact Scott Douglas, (509) 684-4712 or e-mail him at colvillehorizons@gmail.com. Because space is limited, ads will be accepted on a first come/first served basis.
Individuals or groups wishing to list events, birthdates, anniversaries or memorial dates, should contact Muriel Meyer at (509) 675-2974 or email her at colvillehorizons@gmail.com.
Calendars and individual listings can be ordered as well at Happy’s Hallmark Shop, 173 S. Main Street, Colville.
The deadline for ads and listings is June 15. Calendars will be delivered in August.
