New! Stake Dance Dress Code

Below is what I got from the stake regarding the change in dress code for Central Point Stake dances which are held on the 3rd Saturday of each month.

" Beginning in September we will be switching our casual Stake Dances to dressy Stake Dances. Please remind the girls this Sunday and for the next couple of Sunday's. Also, please ask them to tell their nonmember friends so that nobody will feel uncomfortable. We will be firm in upholding modest church dress, if they show up in casual clothing or immodest church clothing they will be asked to go home to change. Thank you for your cooperation. "

PEAR PICKING!!!

Ode to the Mighty Pear

Medford is known for it's fruit without shape

It's not a banana and it's not for apes

It grows on trees with branches so scratchy

And we get to pick them in clothes that are patchy

From dawn until dusk, the members all gather

At the orchard where we all work up a lather

Dripping with sweat in the hot August heat

While meeting old friends that we love to greet

We pick them and size them and load up our sacks

While straining our muscles and breaking our backs

Then fill up the bins before it gets dark

Trust me, my friends -- it's no walk in the park!

But we love to do it, year after year

Picking the fruit for one reason that's clear

We work really hard, but it's really a pleasure

For the Lord has given us blessings unmeasured

The least we can do, for a few hours a week

Is give back what we can to get what we seek.
