Give With Us
January Membership Meeting - Officer Trujillo
At the January membership meeting, Officer Trujillo, of the Kennewick Police Department, gave us a presentation on "Situational Awareness". We learned a lot about staying safe out in public, securing our homes and property from burglary, and vandalism. Lots of information was common sense and was worth a reminder that we have to be alert and conscious of our surroundings, especially out in the public. The members enjoyed his presentation very much and asked lots of questions. At the end of the presentation, Officer Trujillo was presented with a bag of Community Service quilts. The Kennewick Police Department is one of our Community Service recipients.
Community Service Opportunities
To enable our members in this effort the Guild offers

In 2022, the Community Service tribe was able to donate 340 quilts. The most we have done in a long time.
