We would like to extend a very special thank you to the businesses who allowed us to set up in their establishments – Midway Foods in Nezperce; Bishop’s Bistro in Grangeville; Cloninger’s Harvest Foods in Kamiah; and Barney’s in Orofino. 3 Rivers A.R.C. held their annual Christmas Party on December 14th in Kamiah.
