A typical dry, hot summer day on the tarmac at Sisters Eagle Airport had several hundred patrons out and about to see the air show and drag racing to celebrate America’s birthday. The familiar sound of helicopters and other aircraft echoed down the runway all morning in Sisters Country.

Garden club cultivates kindness Tuesday, December 15, 2020 11:44 AM Sisters Garden Club donated winter clothing to Family Access Network (FAN) and provided for other needs in their holiday season of giving.

Giving is nothing new for the Garden Club. Every year in the past, the members have gathered for their annual holiday party in early December. At that event, all the members would bring donations for a local charity. COVID-19 robbed them of their party this year but couldn’t stop them from doing good in the community.
