The Nugget Newspaper - News and Opinion from Sisters, Oregon

• Sisters Ranger District would like to recognize and thank Troy’s Off-Road Recovery, Republic Services, Public Land Stewards, Gambler 500, Sisters Community Leadership Initiative, and Sons of Smokey for their incredible efforts in removing 10 abandoned vehicles (RVs and autos) and about 90 cubic yards of trash from the Deschutes National Forest on the weekend of October 22-23. We so appreciate these volunteers helping create a safe and healthy forest for all to use and enjoy.

• Sisters Habitat for Humanity is immensely grateful for the support we received from the law firm of Martin & Richards PLCC and Edwards Jones employees.

Attorneys Gabrielle Richards and Christie Martin provided Sisters residents with an exceptional learning experience covering wills & trusts, estate planning, advanced directives, and how to avoid scams. The presentation of these complex topics was amazingly clear.

Edward Jones advisors and staff landscaped two of our new Village Meadows homes. We are so appreciative of the help from the Offices of Karen Kassy (Sisters), Hadi Sale (Terrebonne), Jessica Torres-Baltazar (Redmond), Kate Gaughan (Bend), Chris Meek (Lebanon), Megan Layne (Prineville), and Kenny Hadden (Bend). The results are stellar. We so appreciate our partners helping Sisters Habitat serve our community.
