Celebrate!
Many folks from Sisters
will be making the trek up
to Madras on August 23-24
to take in one of the most
spectacular air shows in the
West at the Airshow of the
Cascades.
Hundreds of planes of all
types will be part of the show,
including about 30 flyable
World War II warbirds 4
types that were flown in air
combat during D-Day opera-
tions in Normandy in 1944.
Those planes are part of the
Erickson Aircraft Collection.
A partnership with the
Erickson Aircraft Collection
allows Airshow visitors
free entry to their museum,
which houses the largest
privately owned collection
of vintage warbirds in the
world.
The airshow in Madras is
a family event that is distinct
from many other airshows
across the West.
<Here it9s more up-close,=
said Airshow board member
Tom Brown. <You get to talk
to the pilots; you get up close
to the planes.=
The Airshow of the
Cascades has always been
about more than planes. The
show started when local
rancher and vintage plane
enthusiast Ron Ochs invited
friends to fly in to his ranch
in the late 1970s and 980s for
a get-together and weekend
party. They9d land on his hay
field after the second cutting.
Friends who didn9t fly drove
their fancy cars out to the
ranch.
When the event moved to
the Madras Airport to become
Airshow of the Cascades
in 2000, the car show came
with it. Now there9s also
a motorcycle show and 4
new this year 4 a vintage
celebrate the full and vivid
lives built by the people who
make this special place so
special.
In addition to engaging
and uplifting storytelling
from award-winning writ-
ers, Celebrate! will also be
a resource guide for creating
your own celebrations and
marking your own milestones
4 from weddings to retire-
ments, from arts events to
happy holidays.
The abundant life of
Central Oregon gives us so
much to celebrate, The Nugget
invites readers to join in shar-
ing and spreading the joy.

lived with two. Before
Harry and Lola, the first
pair of rescued Scotties that
came to live in our home,
we had enjoyed five previ-
ous Scotties that we had
acquired as puppies.
One of the first things
that struck me about Harry
and Lola was the uniqueness
of their relationship. Harry
was two years younger
than Lola but much bigger
than her. Yet, Harry always
deferred to Lola9s needs and
wants. It wasn9t fear-based
supplication. It was love and
respect, and it was amazing
to watch.
Anytime food was
offered to the dogs, Harry
would wait to be sure Lola

chance to shine, as well.
There will be both daytime
and nighttime choreographed

is larger, but the new-this-
