Wednesday, February 7, 2018 The Nugget Newspaper, Sisters, Oregon FiresidedStoriesdondtapdindSisters Oregon sheriff fires deputy who tried to unseat him By Sue Stafford Correspondent In the early days of Sisters, during long winter evenings, families gathered beside the fireplace for light and warmth while sharing stories of their day. Three Sisters Historical Society will re-create that cozy gathering on Tuesday, February 20, 7 p.m., at FivePine Conference Center with the family-friendly Fireside Stories – Oregon History Show and Tell. Oregon Historical Society Executive Director Kerry Tymchuk will be the enter- taining storyteller as he shares his trunk of iconic antique artifacts and documents from Oregon’s remarkable history. (See “Renowned speaker coming to Sisters,” page 8.) Attendees will also have the opportunity to learn more about the new historical soci- ety and can join in supporting their mission. A silent auction of framed copies of historic photos depicting the early days of Sisters will help with start-up funding. Items pur- chased must be paid for and taken home that evening. The photos were donated to Three Sisters Historical Society by a local supporter and history enthusiast. A limited number of copies of the iconic Sisters history book, “That Was Yesterday,” will be available for purchase. Dessert and beverages will also be provided. Families are encouraged to bring their school-age chil- dren for what promises to be an entertaining, educational (and not too long) evening. Doors will open at 6:30 p.m. to allow time for auction bids, book purchases, and large-screen viewing of a col- lection of historic Sisters pho- tos of everyday life – sheep, farming, cattle, logging and sawmills, families, Main BEND (AP) — Deschutes County Sheriff Shane Nelson has fired the deputy he defeated in the November 2016 election.
