Court Oregon #118 - Eugene, Oregon - Est. 1909
Catholic Daughters of the Americas Court Oregon #118
Our Court was established in 1909. We were the first Court in Oregon and also in the western half of the United States. Our dedication to Church and country has evolved through the years to encompass local, state, national and global concerns.
By means of membership in our Court, an individual can reasonably make a difference in today's world, friends can be made, and personal growth achieved. Court Oregon #118 provides an effective means through which we can serve our brothers and sisters while serving God, Church and country. Contact our current Regent, Lisa Hurlimann, for more information on how to join.
There is no “I” in Court -- only “our.” If you have ideas that you think may lead our Court in a positive direction, please reach out to our current Regent. It is through ideas shared that make our Court great!
