PRESENTATION UPDATE:
Over 50 people enjoyed John Zeazeas’ presentation at the Bayview Community Center which was very engaging.
John shared his depth of knowledge of Farragut with us.
Tuesday, October 16th – 3:00pm
Join us at the Bayview Community Center for an enlightening talk by John Zeazeas on the history of the Farragut Naval Training Station. While many of us think we know the story, John offers a much deeper and more detailed account of what truly went on during its pivotal years. This is a rare opportunity to gain new insights into a key part of our local history. Don’t miss out!
TOUR UPDATE:
Sunday’s North Idaho Museum Walking Tour was fabulous. Live actors brought history to life at three cemeteries in CDA. Highly recommend their tours but book early because they sell out quickly.
Casino trip update: The group although small had a wonderful time. Laughs, gambling and good food was on the agenda for the day. “Let’s do this again!” exclaimed Edith.
UPDATE: A huge thank you to all the folks who donated items to the Bayview Community Council’s Yard Sale. We handed out 300 maps to shoppers who visited the 24 yard sales around the Bayview area. Our sale collected $2,194.93 to help with our community programs. Woo hoo!
Giddy up horsey! September 19, 2023 the Community Council invites you to saddle up for a captivating hour-long horseback ride with Bridle Path Quarterhorse in Hayden, followed by lunch at Belle’s Brunch House.
This is your chance to make a difference in the lives of individuals and families who are in need of essential nourishment. Your donation can create a ripple effect of kindness and compassion throughout our community.
SEPTEMBER 2nd: Raid your pantry for non-perishable items such as canned goods, pasta, rice, cereal, and other essentials. Your contributions, big or small, will make a difference. Please drop off at the Bayview Mercantile.
All donations go to the Athol Food Bank. Monetary donations are always accepted and appreciated as well.
There’s going to be an ice cream social at 6:45 before the Bayview Community Council meeting. Everyone is invited to learn about the Urgent Care in Athol and meet Bayview native Dr. Ryan MacDonald.
Bayview Community Council Annual Food Drive – NEXT SATURDAY, September 10th, NEAR THE BAYVIEW MERCANTILE
This year there is an even more extreme need to stock the food bank. The number of needy families in our community has increased as the cost of everything has gone up as we come through the pandemic years.
Every year, the Bayview Community Council holds a food drive at the end of the summer with great success—tons of food and cash donations have been gathered door-to-door or dropped off at the Community Center. A lot of Bayview generosity came out those years.
But this year, we simply do not have enough volunteers to do door-to-door collection.
The need is still there and is greater.
So, we ask you to deliver your extra canned food, unopened pasta, rice, bean, cereal packages, personal care items (soap, toothpaste, toilet paper), school supplies—whatever you can spare and bring it to the collection site.
A check can be delivered to the collection site or mailed to PO Box 112. It all adds up to tons of good.
Here’s how to donate:
When: Saturday September 10, 8a.m.-2p.m.
Where: Curbside donations near the Mercantile, Downtown Bayview
How: Hand off your donation to a Timberlake Firefighters or a Council volunteer
Make check payable to the ABC FOOD BANK and mail to the Bayview Community Council, P.O. Box 112, Bayview, ID 83803 Or call for pick-up at your home, call 208-683-3295, Marlys.
Thank you from the Bayview Community Council and the recipients of your generosity!
