and deliveries on Thursdays
from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. This
volunteer needs to be able
to help lift heavy furniture
on and off the truck. They
also need someone to mow
the lawn, trim shrubs, pull
weeds, sweep the driveway or
shovel snow as needed, and
a jack-of-all trades who can
help load and unload, rear-
range furniture on the floor
and help keep things flowing.
This could be one or sev-
eral people each doing a
share — a few hours here, a
few hours there.
At both stores, volun-
teers will be trained and you
can choose your own days
and shifts (Monday through
Saturday, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and
1 to 5 p.m.) — or just come
in for a few hours on days
you can or be on call to fill an
empty shift. You can choose
to do the jobs you are com-
fortable doing.
“It would be a big help to
find people who can work
the register on Mondays
and Saturdays, both shifts,”
ReStore Manager Robin
Tawney said. “Our volunteers
are the greatest and we are
grateful for the support we
receive from the community.”

Jared Henderson, a gradu-
ate of Sisters High School and
Berklee College of Music,
paid a visit to his hometown
last week, concluding the trip
with an intimate evening of
jazz music at The Barn on
Saturday, July 30.
The show was part of
Henderson’s swing through
Oregon with his friend and
fellow musician Christian Li,
also a Berklee grad. Adam
Carlson of Bend joined the
pair on drums after Sisters-
based drummer Justin Veloso
was unable to join as part of
the Jared Henderson Trio due
to another engagement.
Mixing up traditional
jazz tunes with composi-
tions of their own, Henderson
tore it up on his stand-
up bass, while Li wowed
the crowd with equally
vibrant keyboarding skills.
Henderson started play-
ing bass while in middle
school here in Sisters where
his father, Jody, taught music
for many years. Years of prac-
tice and performance helped
him land a full scholarship at
Berklee. He graduated there
in 2013 and later moved to
New York City to be part of
the music scene there. He has
toured extensively as well.
Henderson’s love for
Sisters and its mountains was
evident in the fact that two
of his own songs paid hom-
age to the area. One tune,
called “The Guardians,” was

inspired by Henderson’s feel-
ing that the Three Sisters
look over the town almost as
though protecting the town
and its people.
“It’s just so nice to be here
in Sisters and being able to
perform,” he said between
songs.
Brad Tisdel helped arrange
the venue and sound as a
help to the young musicians.
About 60 people attended the
event, including a number of
former classmates, coaches
and family friends.
In addition to Saturday’s
concert, Henderson played
at Classic Pianos in Portland
on July 24, at Roaring Rapids
Pizza Parlour in Eugene on
July 26, and at the Old Stone
Church in Bend on July
28. When not performing,
Henderson spent time in the
mountains, including a hike

up Tam MacArthur Rim, as
well as catching up with old
friends. Rob and Samra Spear
of Sisters provided a home
base for Henderson and his
friends during their stay.
Henderson is the son of
Jody and Serina Henderson,
who are now residing in
Vermont, where Jody has
continued his work as a band
teacher at Woodstock High
School.

In mid-August the Forest
Service will be installing
a new culvert under Forest
Service Road 2058 on the
Sisters Ranger District,
which will require the
road to be closed during
construction.
The culvert will improve
the passage of fish and other
aquatic species in Indian
Ford Creek. The closure of
the road will begin on August
15, and will be in effect until
construction is completed,
which is anticipated to be
October 15.
During the closure the
public is advised to use
County Road 1102 and Forest
Road 2050 as an alternate
route in the area.
