Wildlife Safari
ildlife Safari is proud to have been selected for the 11th time in a row as the publics #1 tourist attraction in Douglas County - what an honor this is! It is YOUR community involvement and support that helps to bring new life and exhibits into the park. Now, as Wildlife Safari celebrates its 40th anniversary in 2012, we look forward to building on those factors that keep the park thriving so that every visitor who walks through our gates can experience a memorable and thrilling adventure. he Wildlife Safari has been working hard to debut its brand new exhibit in the village: The Wells Fargo Australian Walkabout exhibit in the lower Village! Grand Opening is slated for spring break. Come out and meet the new animals! In the drive-through, the hippo exhibit has been renovated - now you can really see the hippo! And the best part is that a new hippo will be arriving this spring, so Blippo will have a companion! All these changes have been possible due to the generous support of individuals and organizations within our com-
munity. And lets not forget our own hard-working staff, docents and volunteers. It is the united and mutual effort of everyone from outside and inside the park that keeps us thriving, that makes it possible for us to provide a unique environment for people from all over the world to enjoy, learn about and experience native and exotic wildlife. ecause of the support of the community, the park is able to extend educational and creative opportunities beyond our daily visitors. For example, in recent years Wildlife Safari has actively built upon existing connections in providing a venue and individual programs for autistic and critically ill children and adults. Working with organizations such as Camp Millennium, Make-AWish Foundation and Dream Connection, Wildlife Safari has been able to reach out beyond the boundaries of the park. In seeking to offer a moment of reprieve for these children, the staff and volunteers at the park have been touched by these individuals in ways that they will never forget. nother milestone that could not have been ac-
complished without community support is Wildlife Safaris accreditation from the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA). This signies that Wildlife Safari has established and maintains professional zoological management standards as judged by other professional members of the Association. Of the thousands of zoos across the United States, we are proud to join the 223 zoological facilities passing the AZAs stringent inspections. AZA accreditation means that when you come to Wildlife Safari, not only can you be assured of a rst-class experience, but you are guaranteed that our animals are provided with the best in environmental and husbandry care. ildlife Safari would like to thank every single individual from the visible supporter to the youngsters
The new Wells Fargo Australian Walkabout Exhibit is coming soon! Willie the wallaroo cant wait to move in; meanwhile, he sits with his favorite animal, a giant stuffed frog.
in our County to the staff, docents and volunteers of the park for making and keeping Wildlife Safari the #1 tourist attraction in Douglas County. Come and visit us we promise a Safari you will never forget!
American alligator, Fred, and his exhibit were donated by a private individual. Fred is a Village favorite, especially with boys!

I feel very comfortable with the polite staff and have condence in Doctor Weston
Jeff Byars had multifocal lens surgery in October 2011.
back in the operating room recently, this time as a patient of Dr. Jon-Marc Weston. Ive observed cataract procedures all over the world, and Ive never seen a better surgeon, Unruh said. I now have perfect vision!
The Doctor and the nurses and staff, they treated me just wonderful.
I would tell anyone to come see Dr. Weston. - Jean Peterson
When asked about operating on Unruh, Weston said, During his career, Unruh was the rst in Oregon to perform modern cataract surgery. It is now considered the standard of care, and it was an honor to restore his vision using the technology he pioneered.

Sherm & Wanda Olsrud have been in the grocery business for about 50 years, first in Eugene and then in Medford, Klamath Falls and Roseburg. The first store the Olsruds bought was a meat market in Eugene in 1956, which they operated until 1961. Sherm & Wanda then bought a 24-hour market in Eugene, selling it in 1967 to move to Medford. When Sherm & Wanda came to Medford in 1967, they bought the Thunderbird Market on Jacksonville Highway. In 1974, they purchased a store at the Shasta Plaza Mall in Klamath Falls. Other stores in Medford and Roseburg came in following years. The Olsruds grocery business has been active in supporting many local activities including 4-H, FFA and many others. They attend Jackson County,
Klamath County, Tulelake/ Butte Valley, Josephine County, Siskiyou Jr. Livestock and Douglas County auctions. For the past five years they have donated a semitruck load of food to the Umpqua Community Action Network. Sherm, Wanda and their son Steve Olsrud remain deeply committed to Medford, Klamath Falls, Roseburg and the surrounding community. Sherm, Wanda and Steve say their stores strive to give the customers what they want in a friendly manner at a good price. Sherm says, If you shop with us you will save money. Steve is quick to follow with Buying right means we can sell it right. The Olsruds wish to thank the good folks who continue to shop and work at Sherms Thunderbird Markets and Food 4 Less.
