It was a cold, dark and rainy morning in Raymond in 1966 when the Willapa Harbor Lions decided to have a new fundraiser by selling calendars with people’s names printed on a date square for their birthday or anniversary. So this year will be the 47th year for the annual calendar.
For the past 20 years, Keith MacDonald chaired this project for the club. He passed away last year; however, the project will go on chaired by Dick Woods. The club is in the process of going through all the names and deleting those that have passed away or who have divorced. The club is seeking the help of the community to correct any listings that are incorrect.
“We are interested in spelling or date corrections or anyone who has passed away to remove them from the calendar listings,” Woods said.
If you would like your name added for a birthday or anniversary or would like to purchase a calendar, please contact any Lions member or call Dick Woods at
