<p class="MsoNormal">It’s almost Thanksgiving. Sometime next week each of us will likely take a moment to consider what makes us feel thankful. For those of us who work with Oregon’s precious heritage we’re surely thankful for the many volunteers and professionals
we encounter in our work. Well Oregon Heritage suggests you take that sentiment and turn it into action.
<i>Show</i> your thanks by nominating a project, person or organization to one of the many awards listed in our newest publication;
<i>Heritage Bulletin 28: Recognizing Heritage Achievements</i>. Inside you’ll find a list of dozens of honors for all stripes of work related to our history and culture. To view the new bulletin and our library of technical assistance visit Oregon Heritage
