Bunko: Fundraiser for our general fund. Members responsible for inviting guests to attend. Held at Elks Lodge, usually in April.
Summer Picnic: Fun and fundraising, with friends invited also. Potluck plus donation items, such as vacation retreat, homemade items, specialty baskets. Funds toward our general fund and special needs.
Tree of Giving: Donated Christmas trees are placed in area businesses, with attached "wish cards" for new clothing for children in need. Community members can purchase gifts, and Zenith buys for children whose cards are not chosen. This is a collaborative effort of the Silverton community. Fund raisers, grants and donations help pay for needed items. Members shop, gather donated gifts, meet to wrap and distribute gifts. All members help with this
time-consuming project during the busy holiday season.
Town Square Park: Spring and fall cleanup work days, collaborative with high school students. Weeding planting, pruning, decorating for holidays and spring.
