📚🍎 Happy Back to School! 🍎📚

We’re so excited to see this raffle basket make its way to a very deserving Umatilla Elementary School kindergarten teacher! ❤️

The basket was won in the Friends of the Umatilla Library contest last week that the Chamber participated in and has now donated to Umatilla Elementary. Now that’s what we call LOCAL helping LOCAL! 🥰

Wishing all of our students, teachers, staff, and families a wonderful first day and an amazing school year! ✏️📓🍎
