There are plenty of fine folks in the area that runs from Round Mountain all of the way to Alturas and from Mt. Shasta all of the way to Shingletown. There are countless people and organizations out there who are constantly seeking ways to maintain and improve our ways of life.
Take the area's only Masonic Lodge, for example. Fort Crook Lodge 250 of Free and Accepted Masons in Fall River Mills has for many years secured backpacks full of school supplies to give to second grade students in the Intermountain area. This is no small undertaking: you have to coordinate with the schools involved, find backpacks that are decent and durable, shop for the goodies to go into them and physically pack them in, and distribute them. Certainly not least, it takes finding the money to get the job done.
There are many organizations that do good things and we should all be involved to at least some extent in at least one of them. The quality of life we enjoy is so terrific that we really do owe it to each other to give a little bit back... don't we?
