addressing dealing with con-
flict constructively.
Walker started by stating
that conflict is a natural part
of human interaction. Some
conflict we should engage
in and some we shouldn’t.
The decision to confront is
based on the nature of the
relationship, the nature of the
issues, and the ability of the
other party to engage in the
confrontation.
He outlined the four major
types of conflict: spontane-
ous or crisis; strategic; covert

utilized two role-playing
scenarios to help Sisters resi-
dents practice dealing with
constructive confrontation
and positive criticism at last
week’s Citizens4Community
public forums.
Wednesday evening’s
gathering started with Soup
and Civility, with homemade
soup, bread, and cookies

presentation and role-play

SuperpBowlpSunday
It’s a kind of national
holiday, a gathering of tribes
— and a chance to eat, drink
and be merry.
Super Bowl LI is set for
Sunday, February 5, with the
New England Patriots fac-
ing off against the Atlanta
Flacons in Houston. Sisters
will be ready. Some will
watch the game at home;
some will venture out to
Sisters eateries to enjoy the
game.
If you’re entertaining
at home, some Sisters out-
fits have party platters to
make the job easier. Sisters
Meat and Smokehouse is
putting together signature
meat platters to order — give
them a full day of lead
time. They’ll also fill your
growlers.
Owner Jeff Johnson
doesn’t have a strong rooting
interest in the game.
“I’m actually pretty
ambivalent about it,” he
said. “I wanted to see
the Packers against the
Steelers in there,” he said.
He did note that, “I prob-
ably won’t be rooting for the
Patriots.”

Voting for this year’s
People’s Choice Awards
at the 12th Annual Friends
of the Sisters Library Art
Exhibit reception last Friday
was extremely close, with
only a few votes separating
six art pieces.
Greg Waddell’s photo-
graph, titled “Between the
Sun and the Moon,” was
shot on the beach at Bandon,
Oregon, when both the sun
and the Super Moon were in
the sky. The photograph is
mounted on acrylic instead
of metal, a recent popu-
lar method for finishing a
photograph.
Conrad Weiler’s can-
vas-wrapped snowy image
of ponderosa pines, titled
“Forest Home,” was shot in
Camp Sherman.
Four pieces all received
the same number of votes.
The artists and their
works included: Chuck
Chamberlain, “First Snow,”
acrylic painting; Jennifer
Hartwig, “Raptor,” scratch-
board; Bruce Mason, “Nebaj
Market Lady,” photograph;
and Carolyn Platt, “Water
Music Legato,” monoprint.
Guests at the reception
enjoyed complimentary bev-
erages and hors d’oeuvres
as they perused the high
quality art by Sisters art-
ists covering the walls of
the Sisters library. Music
was provided by the Central
Oregon Recorder Consort.
Zoe Schumacher, super-
visor of the Sisters library,
is very pleased to host the
annual art exhibit and recep-
tion at the library.
“The library is about
building community, and
what better place to have the
exhibit and reception than at
the library,” she said.
Zeta Seiple, chairperson
of the FOSL Art Committee
that organizes the exhibit
and reception every year,
