Do you like to write poetry? Do you like to read or listen to poetry? Would you like to learn more about poetry, and maybe try writing some for the first time? John & Natalie Tyler will be leading a poetry group on the third Monday of each month under the Balcony at 7:00 PM, starting March 15, if enough people are interested. Please contact Natalie or John for more information.

The RVUUF Endowment Trust will be accepting Funding Proposals for grants to be awarded in the spring of 2010. Begun in 2006 under the Endowment’s Distribution Policy, grants are made annually (except in 2009) from a portion of the Endowment’s income. This year the Trustees will make grants totaling up to $7,000. Previous grants have included funds for a significant computer upgrade, materials to establish the community garden, the “C” Street sidewalk, the Ministerial Search Committee, and the S. Oregon UU Cluster gatherings.

Funding Proposals may be submitted by anyone in the Fellowship for purchases, activities and programs — including community outreach -- or other purposes of a one-time, special nature, or to nurture new programs over several years. See proposal guidelines for details.

Endowment Funding Proposal Form and Guidelines & Instructions (paper copies available on the table at the back of the Great Hall)

Proposals must be submitted no later than Mar 19, 2010. Grants will be announced at the spring Congregational Meeting. Questions: contact Walter Ensign.

To Members&Friends: Dave Johnson’s term as Skills/Interests Database Coordinator is coming to an end March 31 of this year, and he would be forever grateful if you would fill out the latest survey form so that we will have more information in the database. Eighty have responded to date (thank you!), but we’d like 120 or more.

Please consider filling out a form: print your own form here or obtain a paper copy from a table at the back of the Great Hall; then return it to the Office.

Your timely response will be very helpful as we plan to make phone calls to those we don't hear from.
Many thanks, and please remember -- Many hands, light work.

Dave Johnson, Skills/Interests Database Coordinator
