On April 8, 2011, at approximately 10:00 a.m. OSP detectives arrested Jacob John Croall, age 26, at his attorney's east Portland office, O'Halloran & Associates, where arrangements were made for Croall to turn himself in. Croall was transported to the Clackamas County Jail and lodged on the following charges: Failure to Perform the Duties of a Driver To Injured Persons (Class B felony) Tampering with Evidence (Class A misdemeanor) Other charges may be pending based upon the results of the ongoing investigation that started March 22, 2011 at approximately 3:30 p.m. when Mossman was struck by a vehicle as he rode his bicycle westbound along Highway 211 near milepost 10. Mossman was treated at a Portland area hospital until he died March 31. On April 3, 2011, OSP troopers following up on one of many tips located a vehicle suspected of being involved in the hit-and-run fatality. The vehicle, a gray 1995 Dodge Grand Caravan, was parked outside of a residence located at 26460 S. Hillockburn Road south of Estacada where Croall resides. Investigators weren't able to locate him until he surrendered. The investigation discovered that vehicle parts were pur- chased at an auto wrecking yard following the crash to re- pair damage including replacing the right front passenger door and mirror, and the right front headlight. The wind- shield still had visible damage on the right side next to the door pillar when troopers seized the van. Croall was driving with a suspended license on the date of the crash. OSP detectives and troopers from the Portland Area Command office are continuing the investigation with the assistance of the OSP Portland Forensic Crime Lab and Clackamas County District Attorney's Office.

Carbon monoxide alarms must be installed within each bedroom or within 15 feet feel of each bedroom door. Bed-rooms on separate floors require separate carbon monox-ide alarms. One or more carbon monoxide alarms must be placed in all new residential construction, reconstruction, alteration or repair in which a building permit is needed. Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas. A detec-tor enables residents of a home to be warned if carbon monoxide is present so that they may vacate the premises immediately. Prices of alarms range from approximately $17 to $60.

Fatal Traffic Crash - Hwy 213 In Mulino Area

Oregon State Police (OSP) troopers are continuing the in-vestigation into a fatal traffic crash involving a commercial vehicle and passenger car on Highway 213 in the Mulino

area. The crash resulted in the death of an adult male. The highway was re-opened about 3:00 p.m. According to Trooper Kevin Ferguson, on April 11, 2011, at approximately 10:25 a.m. a 2005 Freightliner truck pull-ing a semi-trailer driven by Fernando Catenada, age 38, from Pomona, California was southbound on Highway 213 near milepost 12 when, for an unknown reason, a northbound 1990 Oldsmobile four-door crossed the cen-terline. Both vehicles collided nearly head-on and came to rest blocking the highway. The 55-year old Oldsmobile driver was pronounced de-ceased at the scene. He was using safety restraints. Castenada was using safety restraints and was not in-jured. The semi-trailer was not loaded. OSP troopers from the Portland Area Command office are continuing the investigation. Clackamas County Sheriff's Office, Molalla Police De-partment, Molalla Fire Department, and ODOT assisted at the scene. ODOT had a detour in place during the over 4 hour closure.

School Board Amends Calendar To Make Up For Snow Days

Final Day Of School Changed The Oregon City School Board approved adding two ad-ditional instructional days to the school calendar for this year at their regular meeting. The days serve to make up for instructional days students missed when school was cancelled for inclement weather in November & February. Superintendent Roger Rada says that after taking five furlough days to help balance the district budget, the board felt that it was important to make up these two days rather than asking the State for a waiver. The last day of school for kindergarteners will by June 13 and June 14th for all other grades. If you have questions regarding the changes to the cal-endar year, please contact your child's school. The Oregon City School District currently serves about 7,500 students, puts more dollars directly into the class-room than the State average and year-after-year continues to exceed State testing averages.

Don’t Kiss The Chicks Advice from Oregon Public Health officials: Salmonella can

spread from baby chicks and ducklings to people With spring here and the Easter holiday approaching, Ore-gon Public Health officials are urging parents to protect their children from potential Salmonella infection caused by han-dling baby poultry, such as chicks and ducklings. Baby chicks are cute, soft and cuddly. Handling them, however, could cause illness. "I know baby chicks and ducklings are cute and you may want to pick them up. Never nuzzle or kiss chicks or duck-lings. Salmonella bacteria are easily spread from birds to humans," said Emilio DeBess, D.V.M., M.P.V.M., state pub-lic health veterinarian for the Oregon Public Health Division, Oregon Health Authority. "Chicks and ducklings may not be an appropriate gift for children younger than 5 or for people with weakened immune systems," he said. A recent case of salmonellosis in a child in Deschutes County has been linked to baby chicks that had been kept inside a home, which led to cross-contamination. Many chicks carry Salmonella bacteria in their intestinal tract and can shed these bacteria in their feces. Salmonella

Free Event - Open To The Public! On Thursday, May 19th, from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. the pub-lic is invited to a free event at the Beavercreek Church/NW Contexture, 15660 S. Leland Rd., Beavercreek, OR.

bacteria may not cause any illness in chicks, but can cause serious illness in people, especially children and immune-compromised people. Most Salmonella infections in humans result in a mild, self-limiting illness characterized by diarrhea, fever and abdominal cramps. However, the infection can spread to the bloodstream, leading to severe and sometimes fatal illness. To prevent the spread of Salmonella bacteria from baby birds, people should take the following precautions: * Always wash your hands with hot, soapy water after handling cages, equipment and the stool of birds.

* Keep the birds outside. * Do not eat, drink or smoke while handling birds, cages or bird equipment. * Follow instructions from your veterinarian concerning proper diet and environment for your chicks. Healthy chicks and ducklings living in proper environ-ments are less likely to shed Salmonella bacteria.

76th Annual Gymanfa Ganu at Bryn Seion Welsh Church

in Beavercreek On Sunday, June 26, 2011, Bryn Seion Welsh Church will hold its 76th annual Gymanfa Ganu (Welsh for "hymn singing festival"). There will be a traditional Morning Wor-ship Service, conducted by Pastor John Hasenjaeger, fol-lowed by afternoon and evening singing sessions of the Gymanfa. The church is located at 22132 S. Kamrath Road, Beavercreek, OR 97004 -- a beautiful wooded set-ting, 5 miles south of Oregon City. A Gymanfa Ganu is a festival of hymns in Welsh and English, in which all participate. There is a long tradition in the US of Welsh hymn singing. Bryn Seion believes this tradition brings great joy to all, whether Welsh or not, when singing together with new and old friends.

This Gymanfa will be di-rected by John Good, who will also provide some spe-cial music. John was born in Wales, surrounded by music and poetry. He is a multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, story-teller and poet. He is a graduate of Cardiff Univer-sity, Wales, with a Master’s

degree in music composition. John has ably practiced his trade – as arranger, performer, studio musician and teacher -- in Wales, Europe and, for over thirty years, in the United States. Beginning in the 1840's, increasing numbers of Welsh immigrated to all parts of Oregon in search of opportunity and fertile, affordable farmland. Beavercreek reminded the settlers of their home back in Wales and they called for family and friends to join them. The Welsh families longed for a church where they could come together to worship and sing in the Welsh tradition. In June 1884, this dream became a reality with the founding of Bryn Seion (Mt. Zion) Church. First listed as

Beavercreek Bulletin May 2010 Page 8 to decay. Scott Hanson, Oregon City forest owner and a member of the CCFFA’s program committee said, “Cedar is a very im-

portant tree for us locally. Landowners need to know more about how to establish new cedar forests and how to man-age the older forests we already have.” Doug Mainwaring, a research associate for forest silvicul-ture studying how forests grow, will be the guest speaker at the cedar workshop on May 13. That session starts at 7:00 p.m. and goes until 9:00 p.m. Mainwaring will talk about ce-dar tree genetics and seedling selection, planting, weed control, animal damage protection, thinning, pruning and growing cedar in mixed stands with other tree species. On Saturday, the cedar workshop will feature an all-day field tour visiting the Jack Thronson property located in Dickey Prairie, near Molalla. Thronson has been planting and tending cedar on his property for more than two dec-ades. Later in the day the tour will conclude at Kevin Kaster’s sawmill near Meadowbrook to learn about log qual-ity, defects and manufacturing cedar products.

Come share our message of Peace to the many travel-ers passing by the Church on Beavercreek Road. We have signs to borrow or bring your own.

State Government Rolls Out New Open-Government Website

The Oregon-State government has rolled out a powerful new website that lets citizens easily customize their view of data from State agencies and comment right on the site, the Oregon Department of Administrative Services recently an-nounced. The website, Data.Oregon.gov, also lets visitors interact with State records, create their own charts, graphs, calen-dars and maps, and save them online. Visitors may even suggest new "datasets" for displaying information not yet available on the site. "Our goal is to enable State government to interact more directly with the citizens of Oregon, and this new site is a powerful way to help make that happen," said Kris Kautz, acting-director of the State Department of Administrative Services. "We want to transform the way government works, and that means making it easy for Oregonians to get infor-mation about agencies and offer their views about what they see." Kautz also noted that Oregon is among the first states to

Four Charged Following 5 Month OSP Investigation Into Unlawful Hunting And Guiding Activities

Oregon State Police (OSP) Fish & Wildlife Division troopers from the Albany, Burns, McMinnville, Portland, Salem and Tillamook offices completed a five month in-vestigation into unlawful hunting and guiding activities, which resulted in four people being cited on numerous wildlife crimes and related of-fenses involving Northwest Hunt-ing Adventures guide service. The four people cited included the guide service owner, an em-ployee, and two acquaintances. According to OSP Senior Trooper Adam Turnbo (McMinnville), OSP was assisted during the investigation by the Indiana Department of Natural Resources and Washington Department of Fish & Game. Multiple search warrants were served in Oregon and Indiana to gather evi-dence related to the investigation and alleged crimes. The four suspects identified and cited to appear for mul-tiple crimes were: * BRIAN MILLER, age 27, from Lake Oswego (owner of Northwest Hunting Adventures) * NATHAN HOSTETTER, age 37, from Lebanon (guide for Northwest Hunting Adventures) * LOREN KELLER, age 28, from Vancouver, Washing-ton * CASEY JONES, age 31, from Bargersville, Indiana The offenses allegedly occurred during a two-year pe-riod between February 2009 and February 2011 in Clat-sop, Tillamook, Washington, Multnomah, Linn, Gilliam, Douglas and Harney counties. Wildlife unlawfully taken and/or possessed included Blacktail and Mule Deer, Elk, Antelope, Bear, Raccoon, Beaver, and a Hawk. Examples of the alleged illegal activity included: * During the 2009 archery season, MILLER and HOSTETTER unlawfully killed four large Mule deer bucks.

employ this new technology. The White House has used the technology since 2009, making available records on visits to the White House and staff salaries. Oregon's use of the technology is more far-reaching, Kautz said. The site displays information in a wide range of datasets, including State agencies' expenditures, buildings leased by state government, salaries of state workers, State contracts with private businesses, and more than 60 others. Forty new datasets are already in the testing and evaluation stage. The offerings will continue to grow as viewers suggest more datasets. "You don't need to be a technology expert to use Data.Oregon.gov," Kautz said. "The site is easy to use and very flexible. Countless Oregonians have said they want more access to the information that state agencies collect, and this new resource gives them that access." How it works In addition to offering visitors immediate access to a vast array of facts and records, Data.Oregon.gov lets them do the following: * Post comments about the data right on the dataset * Use the data to create charts, graphs, maps and calendars, which users can share with others "Creating displays is as easy as posting to YouTube," Kautz said. * Suggest new datasets for the State to display * Create or participate in discussion forums, where visitors may share their views and concerns with State agencies and the public * Download the data in any of eight formats, something researchers and scientists will appreciate

Another powerful feature of Data.Oregon.gov is access to any dataset in real time for industrial and civic web de-velopers. Developers are thus able to create new mobile applications and web applications that utilize data from state agencies. Users may filter or sort the data any way they want. They may also embed it in their own blogs and websites. "Pioneering comes naturally to Oregonians," Kautz said. "With Data.Oregon.gov, we're blazing a new ‘Oregon Trail' that leads to more citizen involvement and openness in State government."

Oregon City School District Announces Annual Awards

Of Distinction In conjunction with the Oregon City Chamber of Com-merce's upcoming Community Service Awards Luncheon, the Oregon City School District will honor two of its own for excellence in the classroom and beyond. This year's awards were announced at the District's March Board meeting. MaryEllen Winterhalter was honored as the district's Em-ployee of Distinction & Steve Wehrley was honored as the Teacher of Distinction. Ginger Redlinger, CAIS Principal & ELL Program coordi-nator nominated both Winterhalter & Wehrley. Winterhalter is the District's Homeless Student Liaison in

Beavercreek Bulletin May 2010 Page 13 All four sets of antlers were recovered. * During a September 2010 hunting trip involving MILLER, HOSTETTER, and JONES, an antelope was unlawfully killed by JONES during a closed season. Parts of the ante-lope were recovered in Indiana during the execution of a search warrant. JONES has been charged in the State of Indiana with misdemeanor crime of Unlawful Possession of Wildlife Unlawfully Taken in Another State. * In January of 2011, MILLER and JONES unlawfully killed two cow elk without valid tags. A few weeks later MILLER also killed a spike bull elk. * KELLER, a Washington State resident, purchased an Oregon 2011 Resident Sport Pac license (combination hunt-ing/angling/shellfish license with associated tags for fish, big game and birds). By making a false application for the Resi-dent Sport Pac license, KELLER saved over $1300 on non-resident license fees. KELLER, a convicted felon, also shot a cow elk in January of 2011 with a rifle. The rifle used in this crime was subsequently located and seized. The four listed individuals were cited to appear in the above listed counties on multiple crimes which may include: * Unlawful Taking and/or Possessing Wildlife * Taking Wildlife Closed Season - Exceeding the Bag Limit of Deer * Waste of Game Mammal * Theft in the First Degree * Falsely Applying for a Resident Sport Pac * Felon in Possession of a Firearm * Aiding or Counseling in a Wildlife Violation

the Special Programs Office. "She has created an atmosphere of support and safety for our most impoverished students. She is respected by both her co-workers and her supervisors and is loved by all staff members in her department," Redlinger wrote in her nomination form. Wehrley is a new CIAS teacher and also teaches mathe-matics at OCHS. "He listens to students and parents in order to solve problems collaboratively to the benefit of the student. He is very excited about his teaching, and his students respond accordingly," Redlinger wrote. The Oregon City Chamber of Commerce Community Service Awards Luncheon wasl be held on April 15th. The Oregon City School District currently serves about 7,500 students, puts more dollars directly into the class-room than the State average and year-after-year contin-ues to exceed State testing averages.

Beavercreek Bulletin May 2010 Page 15 bernation. I suppose the wind is still here, and the rain, and even the cold, but why not the sun? When will it be your time to come out? Oregon, you sure have a way with weather! I guess it’s not the weather that should change your spring break. It should be your attitude. I have recently learned that money is not always necessary for happiness. Little or none you have to find better things to do in your days, without money. The only thing is, the weather stinks! So what is there to do, you say? Oh, I could list a bunch of things that could be done; you just have to have two things: imagina-tion and creativity. During my vacation I took the cheapest trip ever. Didn’t cost me a penny. What you may ask? Oh yes it was to the moon! My little brother and I sat, feet in the air, in our full-power space ship (our couch) we keep in our living room for storage. Buckled up and ready to go we were all set for a voyage to the moon! Holding on tight we set off into the sky at a speed of 1000 mph. Up, up, up we went into the star-covered galaxy! Aliens floated by in their little space crafts and we made it to the moon! But of course we stopped to take a picture with the American flag! Our adventure couldn’t last forever so we headed back towards earth with a fulfilling feeling, back into our little living room with the rest of the

family. What an adventure that was! You should all go home, sit on your spaceship (couch) and ride to the moon. Best trip you’ll ever have, plus it’s absolutely free! If space shuttling isn’t your style, don’t worry! I have yet another free activity for you and your family! Yes free! No matter where you live there’s always an adventure. My family and I slipped on our rain boots, rain jackets, and pants and went out to explore what we had in our own backyard. Frogs, salamanders, and fish; what more could we ask for? Creeping up on the little swimmers in our own back yard! How fun! If you have a pond, or some kind of area with animals, try catching them. It’s fun to catch frogs and salamanders! Are you still not finding anything you like? How about this one: If the weather is bad outside, then why not hang out inside and do things like… go on a ghost hunt! Smart phones are pretty common these days, so if you or your friends or parents have a smart phone that has lots of free apps, download Ghost Radar! My family and I sit around on our couches (or space ship!) and listen to the ghost ra-dar work its magic. Words fly out of the phone describing weird things. Is it real, you think? Well I have no idea, but I sure like to pretend it is!

On other days, such as the big storm that we had a few weeks ago, we like to sit inside and listen to my dad’s po-lice scanner. When the power went out, we had nothing else to do but listen to the scanner! We knew everything before the public! So cool! During the storm my family and I went out for a little drive to see the damage of the wind. With our police scanner full blast we were perfect police! Such a good time just laughing and joking around with my family listening to the police scanner! No matter where or when have fun with your family but don’t spend a penny! Have a great spring everyone! 

Thank You Beavercreek Our Rummage Sale Huge Success

In a word: WOW! Thank you one and all for the success of our Annual Rummage Sale. It was a lot of fun and a huge success. Special kudos go to Jan Wallinder for imagining the role of an “Event Coor-dinator” and then assuming that position. She got the word out about what workers were needed and then recruited until the job slots were filled. Thank you Jan!

Thank you also to Kathy Lottmann whose wonderful signs and publicity directed the shoppers to us. Thank you Kathy! Thank you also to all those who donated reusable items and treasures. Thank you for each item you sorted out, saved and brought to the sale. It takes a lot of quarters to total sales of $4100. Have you started your bag for next year? But, most of all “Thank You” to all those community mem-bers who attended the sale. We couldn’t have done it with-out you.

comes on the heels of a successful pilot program at three campgrounds. Since May 2009 a few yurts and cabins at South Beach, Stub Stewart and LaPine have allowed camp-ers of the four-legged variety. A yurt at South Beach, a cabin at Stub Stewart and two cabins at LaPine remain open to reservations for stays this year. "The experiment confirmed that a demand existed for pet friendly yurts and cabins," said OPRD Recreation Programs Manager Richard Walkoski. "We're responding to that de-mand, while remaining conscious of the preferences and needs of other campers." Pets are allowed only in those yurts and cabins designated as pet friendly. Pet-designated yurts and cabins may be reserved only by calling Reservations Northwest at 1-800-452-5687. Online reservations are not available. At least one pet friendly yurt or cabin at each park will be ADA accessible. A $10 per night pet fee (non-refundable) on top of the daily rate will be charged. A limit of two pets is allowed each night. Pets are defined as cats and dogs. Details and the exact locations of the 21 parks can be found online at www.oregonstateparks.org and by calling 1-800-551-6949.

Army Reserve Chief To Open Virtual Installation at CCC

The Chief of the Army Reserve, Lt. Gen Jack C. Stultz, leader of more than 200,000 Army Reserve soldiers, and his wife Laura, will be keynote speakers as they welcome resi-dents of Clackamas and other nearby communities during the grand opening of a new Army Strong Community Center, Saturday, May 14, at 10:00 a.m. The Clackamas Army Strong Community Center is the fourth community-based center of its kind in the country. It is conveniently located on the campus of Clackamas Commu-nity College. It is resourced and staffed to deliver military families the information, services and support that are nor-mally only available at major military bases. Stultz and his wife, Laura, who championed the idea to fill a gap she ex-perienced personally during his various deployments, say they hope to “see the centers become as commonplace as local post offices.” During the grand opening ceremony, Lt. Gen Stultz will sign a community covenant with community leaders to in-clude Oregon City Mayor Doug Neely, CCC President Dr. Joanne Truesdell and Oregon state Army Reserve ambas-sadors. Several local business leaders will join Stultz in sign-ing the Employer Partnership Initiative (EPI) agreement to galvanize community support. EPI is committed to support-ing military veterans through hiring for local employment. The 204th Army Band, from Vancouver, Wash. will per-

Beavercreek Bulletin May 2010 Page 19 The focus of the first buffet, held on January 8th, was to introduce the community to the new menu inspired by Chef Mackenzie. It included 5-hour Cherry Smoked Prime-Rib, seafood, sliders, salads and many, many items too numer-ous to list. If you did not attend you missed a fabulous event. This time around the menu will be highlighting Chef Mackenzie’s new Barbeque Menu. Some of the items to be showcased will be Barbeque Brisket and Short Ribs along with all the usual suspects found at a BBQ including baked beans and corn bread to name a few. Don’t miss this one! It promises to be a real stunner! Since the first buffet was such a rousing success and the community attended in such large numbers it has been de-cided to do things a little differently this time. This time there will be two seatings, each limited to 100 individuals on a first come first serve basis. This will hopefully make things go a little smoother. The first seating will be at 4:00 p.m. with a second at 7:00 p.m. The cost for the buffet will be $10.00 per person. The buffet will be available in the saloon ONLY.

The April meeting of the Hamlet of Beavercreek took place on Wednesday, April 27, 2011, at Beavercreek Ele-mentary School at 7:00 p.m., with 23 residents and guests in attendance. There were three guest speakers. First was Diana Hall-mark of Clackamas County Dog Services who spoke about the facility and the changes that have been made over the years to change from a “pound” to a “shelter”. She touched on the community outreach and the over-whelming response from the community by way of hours donated and donations of food, etc. The second speaker was Shelly Parini, Dean of Ad-

My Name is

“STUDEBAKER” and I’m

available for Adoption!

Hello... my name is “Studebaker” and I’m available for adoption. I’m a Lhasa Apso/Miniature Poodle mix. I’m a 2 year old neutered male and I weigh approximately 10 to 30lbs. As you can see I’m black and gray in color with folded ears.

Here is what I have to say about myself! “Studebaker - that's me! I'm a little guy with a big personality. Everyone loves me and I love everyone! I want to be you lap dog, your companion, and your fluffy friend. Crate-training and frequent grooming is recommended when I join your home, so I can learn your rules and look my best. I'm happy, friendly, and just plain cute. Come see for yourself!” For more information on me or other dogs available for adoption, please call the shelter at 503-655-8628 or come by for a visit and a little one-on-one. You can also see us at the Clackamas County Dog Control website at:

http://www.co.clackamas.or.us/dogs/adoptpet.php The shelter is located at 13141 S.E. Hwy 212 in Clackamas, Oregon. I’m available from 12:30 to 4:30 p.m., Thursday thru Monday. I’d sure love to get the chance to meet you. ”STUDEBAKER”

vancement at Clackamas Community College, who gave the history of the college and how past bond measure money was spent and how the money from the new bond measure would expand on that if passed in the May election. Her presentation was very informative and comprehensive. The third speaker was Doug Neeley, Mayor of Oregon City, who spoke on two subjects. The first was a ground breaking ceremony to be held on May 5, 2011, in the parking lot of Home Depot. The reception will be at 12:30 p.m. with the ground breaking at 1:00 p.m. and is open to the public. This is to kick-off the reconstruction of the Hwy 213/Washington St. intersection. Construc-tion will dig out Washington Street so that it will go under Hwy 213. Hwy 213 will have a span put in place to allow traffic to go over Washington St to do away with the sig-nals at that intersection. The project will be paid for with a grant. The cost will be $17 million dollars and will make 100 new jobs. The job will take two years and work will be done at night, finishing by 6:00 a.m. At one point Hwy 213 will be closed for four days over a week-end in order to put the span in place that goes over Washington St. Mr. Neeley also asked for volunteers to sit on a panel with Oregon City to look into a broad based vision for the land South of Henrici Road that was designated as an Urban Reserves last year. A Concept Plan has to be done BEFORE the land can be added to the UGB. Mr. Neeley noted the contention between Oregon City and Beavercreek residents in the past and hopes to avoid that with co-operation between the two areas in the fu-ture. Two land use issues were before those present. One, a permit for a manufactured home for care, which was

recommended for approval and one for 80 acres to be divided into 8 legally established dwellings on 2-5 acre parcels with the 9th being approximately 49 acres. There were neighbors present who objected to the project who read their statement into the record. After much discussion and information pro-vided by a family member the vote was made to recommend approval as the application met all the ZDO criteria and the project is legally allowed. It was announced that it is hoped to have a rummage sale at the Korner Park in July and possibly a concert in August. More info will be available at a later date. The meeting was adjourned at 8:55 p.m. Everyone is encouraged to attend the monthly Hamlet Com-munity meetings and the quarterly Town Hall meetings to par-ticipate and share ideas and concerns on the issues pertinent to our community. Members 18 years of age and older who live, own a business, or property within the Hamlet area may vote on Hamlet issues. The Hamlet of Beavercreek Boundary Map is located online at http//www.beavercreekbulletin.org/Misc/Beavercreek_Hamlet_Boundary_map.pdf The Community meetings take place on the fourth Wednes-day of the month at the Beavercreek Grange on Kamrath Rd at 7:00 p.m. The Town Hall Meetings will occur every quarter.
