Community Development Organization

By: Cheryl McCawley

The new web site for the Community Development Organization (www.CRRCDO.org) is up and running. Included on the web site are the mission statement of the CDO, information about current board members, information about the current proposed community center project and an area for community feedback. The website has been developed as a tool to notify residents on the status of all projects undertaken by the CDO now and in the future. We encourage everyone to log on to learn more about the work of the CDO to make Crooked River Ranch a better place to live and check back periodically for future updates.

The CDO is continuing to move forward on the community center project. As a reminder, the community center can only be built with donations and grants, so board members continue to research appropriate funding sources and continue to educate themselves on how to raise money for the project. We are continually looking for volunteers with grant writing experience to assist us in this endeavor. If you have such experience and are interested in getting involved in this exciting project, please call Larry Gedemer, CDO Chair, at 788-1533.
