Last Chance - Special Fringe No Pity Sets
We just put the remaining sets of red, white and blue special fringe No Pity scarves online in the 107ist Member Store. All proceeds from these scarves go towards the Jefferson High School field project. Get the sets before they are gone!
Get Ready for Stand Together Week
We are currently working out the details for our involvement in this year’s Stand Together Week. Save the date for Saturday, June 21st to beautify Harrison Park SUN School at 9:00am (ages 6+) and/or, Sunday, June 22nd at 9:00am to help restore Baltimore Woods in Saint Johns (all ages). We’ll have signups ready soon and we look forward to seeing you out there.
Call for Volunteers: Book Return Days at Madison HS
Friday, 5/30 (seniors) and Friday, 6/6 (all students) are locker clean out days at Madison High School. This means that Linda, the library assistant, will be faced with 1100 students returning as many as 50 pounds worth of textbooks each.
She can use your help getting them sorted, stacked, and packed away for next year. Note that while you don't have to be Superman to do this gig it will definitely involve more book lifting than the usual library shelving experience.
Sign up to help on May 30 or June 6.
While book returns will be going on all day, if you can only come for part of the day then do so, if that's when you're available. Please just send a note to sherrilynn.rawson@107ist.org so she knows when to tell Linda to expect you.

Want to see the Timbers slay the Goats and save some green? Check out the Timbers at one of our 107ist partner bars! The Sellwood Public House (8132 SE 13th Avenue, Portland) offers all card-carrying 107ist members $1 off their first pint all day everyday and extend happy hour offerings of $1 off the entire menu during Timber games. Great spot to watch a match!

Additionally, the first 20 members who show their card on game days will receive their first draught beer for $1.07 in honor of the section that started it all. Woot!
