The Knights Ferry Community Club was PACKED for the meeting on the Post Office last Thursday. The Manager of Marketing for the Post Office from Sacramento, Susan Donaldson, was there to give three options for opening the Post Office. Also attending were Congressman Denham’s representatives Bob Rucker and Wendy Rodman. The guests came early to tour the museum and the Post Office. Three possibilities were given and a paper ballot was passed out to vote on which one was best. The majority voted for the Contract Post Office (like what we had). Many people commented on the treatment from the Oakdale Post Office and she will look into that. Mail will be put in your boxes Friday!

On Friday the Post Office was decorated by the school children with posters and cards welcoming it back. Temporary hours are 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. daily. Mail was delivered! Soft opening will May 23rd with supplies delivered.

On Tuesday, May 31st the opening of the Post Office will be celebrated with Congressman Jeff Denham at 11 a.m. All are welcome! Come and show your thanks!
