  • Quilt Book for Submitters 2014 (FINAL).Pdf
    “Each square is unique and tells the story of incredible courage, faith, and generosity.” Dear Friends, Quilts are a visual testament to the compassionate nature of the human spirit. They are often created to serve a special purpose. Do- nate Life Northwest’s 2014 Threads of Life Quilt celebrates the lives of individuals who have been touched by donation and trans- plantation. Constructed from articles of clothing, blankets, cherished jewelry and heirlooms, each square is unique and tells the story of incredible courage, faith, and generosity. Threads of Life brings people together, to create personal tributes as well as enlist the help of others to complete the quilt and prepare it for exhibition. Threads of Life is more than layers of fabric stitched together, it is stories of mothers, fathers, children, siblings, friends, and neighbors. For donor family members recognizing the loss of their loved one, Threads of Life can ease the healing process while furthering a legacy and extending the impact of his or her precious gift. Transplant recipients celebrate their second chance and pay tribute to their donors for the treasured gift they have received. On behalf of Donate Life Northwest, we thank those who submitted squares, those who created the finished quilt and those who fur- ther the mission to save and enhance lives through the promotion of organ, eye and tissue donation.

  • Foundation Document Overview, Crater Lake National Park, Oregon
    NATIONAL PARK SERVICE • U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR Foundation Document Overview Crater Lake National Park Oregon Contact Information For more information about the Crater Lake National Park Foundation Document, contact: [email protected] or (541) 594-3000 or write to: Superintendent, Crater Lake National Park, P.O. Box 7, Crater Lake, Oregon 97604 Park Description Crater Lake National Park—established in 1902—is in southwest Oregon in the south-central portion of the Cascade Range. The park ranges in elevation from about 3,800 feet to just over 8,900 feet at Mount Scott. Near the center of the park is one of its most spectacular features, Crater Lake. At 1,943 feet deep, it is the deepest lake in the United States. The lake is in a caldera, which was formed when the top of 12,000-foot Mount Mazama erupted and collapsed about 7,700 years ago. Over the centuries, the caldera has collected water from rain and snow to form the lake. The lake is about 5 miles in diameter and is surrounded by the jagged, steep-walled cliffs of the caldera left by the climatic eruption. The cliffs surrounding the lake rise from 500 to 2,000 feet above the lake’s surface. From the rimmed summit, the land slopes gradually downward in all directions. There are no inlets or outlets to the lake, and evaporation and seepage prevent the lake from becoming deeper. Crater Lake has no influent or effluent streams to provide continuing supplies of oxygen, nutrients, and fresh water and is considered a youthful lake with a high level of purity.

They were an innovation as so little had been done by any state in the Union. The Oregon parks system owes its beginning to the thought of highway beautification advocated by many leaders of the state, including the Governors, the early State Highway Commissioners and Highway Engi- neers.

They usually travelled by train to the vicinity of the trailhead, and then took motor coaches or private cars for the remainder of the way. Of the four hikes that are recorded Mount Saint Helens was the first climb undertaken by the Club. On the Beacon Rock hike Lower Hardy Falls on the nearby Hamilton Mountain trail were rechristened Rodney Falls in honor of the "mountaineer" Rodney Glisan. Trips included Mount Saint Helens Climb, July 4 and 5, 1915; Table Mountain Hike, November 14, 1915; Mount Adams Climb, July 1, 1916; and Beacon Rock Hike, November 4, 1917.
