20 Wednesday, January 24, 2018 The Nugget Newspaper, Sisters, Oregon Firefighter earns promotion Sheriff to enforce sno-park parking PHOTO PROVIDED Rachelle Beiler earned promotion to resident volunteer lieutenant at Sisters-Camp Sherman Fire District. She was honored by Deputy Fire Chief Tim Craig (left) and Fire Chief Roger Johnson. Sisters-Camp Sherman Fire District recognized the outstanding achievements of Resident Volunteer Rachelle Beiler by promoting her last week to the position of resi- dent volunteer lieutenant. The resident volunteer lieutenant is responsible for supervisory support of resi- dent volunteer firefighters and EMTs in the District’s resident volunteer college program. The District pro- vides college scholarships and housing annually to nine students who attend fire sci- ence or paramedic courses at Central Oregon Community College. As a resident volunteer lieutenant, Beiler will receive a scholarship to study fire ser- vice administration through Eastern Oregon University. Sisters-Camp Sherman Fire District Fire Chief Roger Johnson said, “We are very proud of Rachelle and hon- ored to have her as a member of our leadership team.” Beiler has been with the District for nearly two years and is studying fire science and paramedicine at Central Oregon Community College. She maintains a 4.0 GPA and has attained certification as an EMT, Firefighter 1&2, Apparatus Driver, Hazardous Materials Operations and six national incident manage- ment courses. Beiler discovered Sisters Country in 2015 when she worked as a volunteer at Crystal Peaks Youth Ranch east of Sisters. She grew up in rural Lancaster County Pennsylvania and spent the summer working at the youth ranch. While not working at the youth ranch, Rachelle signed up to ride along with the Sisters-Camp Sherman Fire District. She fell in love with the community and fire department and applied the following year for the resi- dent volunteer scholarship program. Beiler will remain with the Fire District during her four- year scholarship program and will receive certification as an Oregon and National Registry Paramedic and receive a Bachelor of Science degree in Fire Service Administration.

Natural & Artifi cial The Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office has entered into an agreement with the Oregon Department Of Transportation to pro- vide sno-park parking per- mit enforcement. Oregon’s sno-park program is funded entirely by the sale of sno- park permits. The program provides funds for snow removal in sno-parks as well as maintenance and develop- ment of sno-parks. Costs of the permit vary from $4 to $25, depend- ing upon whether a person is purchasing a one-day, three-day or season permit. Permits can be purchased at any DMV office or at any of the vendors listed at: http:// www.oregon.gov/ODOT/ DMV/docs/sno_park_ven- dor_list.pdf. Sales agents may charge an additional ser- vice fee for each permit they sell. Oregon sno-park permits are also honored in Idaho and California. Valid sno-park permits must be displayed near the lower left (driver’s side) corner of the vehicle wind- shield when parking in a designated winter recreation parking area (Sno-Park) between November 1 and April 30. The Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office states that its goal is to get volun- tary compliance from those recreating at the region’s winter recreation areas. However, parking in an Oregon Sno-Park without a permit may result in a $30 fine. ove or of l A lab s Siste e r d! Own “Pete is the best!
