I want to remind everyone that the deadline for purchasing tickets for the Winterhawks hockey night for Oregonians for Nebraska is fast approaching.
We have a block of tickets reserved for Sunday, February 24th, 5:00 pm at Memorial Coliseum.
Get your checks ($11.50 per ticket and payable to Oregonians for Nebraska) to Lisa Martin at 401 S. Everest Road #2 Newberg OR 97132.

In other upcoming events, the Oregonians for Nebraska 3rd Annual Founders  Day celebration is scheduled for Saturday, March 9th.
The festivities will kickoff with an exclusive social hour for Blackshirt Club members only from 6 to 6:30 pm.
A social hour with a no host bar including a silent auction for all others will start at 6:30 with dinner served at 7:30 pm.
Throughout the evening, there will be door prizes and an exclusive raffle for those attending who are Alumni Association members.
The event is taking place at McMenamins Edgefield Manor in Troutdale.
Edgefield is a unique  European-style village, which includes lodging, a pub with a movie theater, fine dining, a winery, a brewery, distillery, golf course, gardens, vineyards, artwork, meeting, wedding and banquet space, and special events year round.
Edgefield, built in 1911, served for several decades as the Multnomah County Poor Farm.
Residents operated a self-sufficient environment, raising hogs, poultry, growing a variety of fruits and vegetables, operating a dairy, cannery and meat packing plant as well as working in the laundry, kitchen and hospital.
In 1947, it was  renamed the Multnomah County Home and Farm and in the late fifties the farm operation was eliminated.
In 1962, the facitity was renamed Edgefield Manor and for the last two decades of operation, functioned as a nursing home and eventually closed in 1982.
McMenamins purchased the property from Multnomah County in 1990.
In phases lasting over four years, the condemned buildings and land were transformed into a place that is quite special.
Edgefield also offers over 100 bed and breakfast rooms creating a unique lodging experience.
Spacious rooms are furnished with cozy and inviting  decor from the turn of the century.
Televisions and telephones are absent  from the rooms, encouraging a tranquil retreat atmosphere.
If you are interested in spending the night on the 9th, contact Edgefield directly at 503-669-8610.
Be sure to mention that you are with the Oregonians for  Nebraska for discounted room rates.
Our speakers this year include the dean of the Nebraska football coaching  staff, George Darlington and Chancellor of the University Harvey Perlman.
Coach Darlington is the only remaining member of Tom Osborne's original Husker staff.
Darlington is just finished his 29th season with the Huskers and his 16th as Nebraska's secondary coach.
Darlington originally  tutored the defensive ends for 13 seasons.
Chancellor Perlman took over the reins of the University in 2000.
Come hear about the future of both the University and the football team!
The theme of this year's Founders Day is The Road to Number One.
The Alumni Association is hoping, with your help, to become the number one alumni association in the country.
