CLUBS & YOUTH GROUPS

Athenaeum

Members gathered at the home of Sherry Cox Feb. 17. Mary Ann Mitchell presented a program on Maude Lillian Bolin. She was a member of a Yakama Indian Tribe and known as Yakama Cow Girl Aviator. Her love of flying combined with her dare devil rodeo adventures made her well known in the county. She flew across the country in 1928, but she was also recognized for many civic contributions.

Cindy Jones, Cheryl Alice Van Tine and Ruth Enos were placed on the associate member list.

The next meeting will be held at the Colfax Library March 2.
