Wednesday, May 9, 2018 The Nugget Newspaper, Sisters, Oregon
to Central Oregon and my concerns related to
my area. Ms. Baney not only listened, she fol-
lowed up with me personally. Her presence
throughout the classes as well as running a
public County meeting were nothing but pro-
fessional, her demeanor kind and her knowl-
edge of our County very thorough.
In contrast, my personal experience with
Patti Adair (who is running against incumbent
Tammy Baney) was negative. As a fellow par-
ticipant of our County College group, I found
Ms. Adair lacking in listening skills, she did
not follow through on a task she assured me
she would, and repeatedly carried on distract-
ing personal conversations during presenta-
tions by various Country departments. I was
unclear then of her agenda as a participant in
our group, but now can see her political moti-
vations — and I certainly won’t vote for her in
this Oregon Primary.
Tammy Baney is the only choice for
Deschutes County Commissioner Position 3.

To the Editor:
In 2017 I participated in the Deschutes
County College, an eight-week course offer-
ing citizens of the County an opportunity to
learn more about how our County tax dollars
are spent, the services the various departments
provide, and meet our three elected County
Commissioners. During the first class each
County Commissioner presented and dis-
cussed their roles on various committees, their
specific interests, background and expertise.
I met and spoke with Tammy Baney on
more than one occasion about my recent move

GIRLS TENNIS: Team
wrapped up league
play in fine fashion
Continued from page 19
Harrer said, “The win felt
great. We played very well,
and very consistent. Rylee
had great serves, and we both
had good net play, and pretty
good ground strokes.”
Hallie Schwartz and Lola
Green posted scores of 4-6,
6-1, 7-5, in their win over
North Marion’s Perez and
Hefner. It was a very close
match, and Schwartz and
Green battled back to win the
second set, and then closed
the deal in the final set.
Tosello said, “Hallie and
Lola consistently hit amaz-
ing deep ground strokes in the
far back corner of the ally, as
well as volleys at great shot
angles. I’ve never seen them
hit so many shots with such
great placement in one match
before. They’ve worked so
hard all season, and it’s awe-
some to see them advance
in the district tournament
21
to day two.”
Mattie Mynatt and
Engracia Diez drew a pit-tail
match, and tallied an easy 8-2
win against North Marion’s
Perez and Cha. They fell 3-6,
3-6 to Madras’ Olivera and
Olivera (No. 3 seed) in the
round-one match.
To s e l l o c o m m e n t e d ,
“These girls have only played
together once. I doubt the
Madras team ever expected
them to be so skilled, and put
up such a good fight. Both
of our girls were so aggres-
sive and played some of their
best tennis of the season.
Engracia is very skilled, and
she is a steady force. Mattie
likes to put the ball away, and
does so with her serves and
volleys. They were a great
combo together. They took
the seeded Madras team so
off-guard that they won the
first two games.”
On Monday, the Outlaws
beat Estacada 6-2 in their last
league match of the season
and wrapped up conference
play with a 4-4 record. The
Outlaws were happy to wrap
up league in fine fashion.
