We want to take a moment to recognize everyone who participated in making this year's Southern Oregon Garden Party a tremendous success! On October 24th, our friends down in the Rogue Valley area helped to raise well over $5,000 to support the work of Basic Rights Oregon, which is double our original goal for the event! A special thanks needs to be extended to Senator Alan Bates for helping out with the special appeal, to Tammy Marston (and her friend Mark) for providing fantastic entertainment for the event, and to everyone who gave of their time and money to support fairness and equality in our state! Thank you all so much and we look forward to our next trip down to the Rogue Valley very soon!
