People behind The Nugget: PHOTO PROVIDED " On Saturday, August 7, 12 young men and women, eight shown here, from Black Butte Ranch Fire, Cloverdale Fire and Sisters-Camp Sherman Fire graduated from their Joint Recruitment Academy. The graduation honored those from both the 2020 and 2021 classes who successfully completed their Firefighter I Academy. " Sisters District Ranger Ian Reid wrote: We would like to thank all of the local restaurants and vendors who helped support approximately 220 firefighters with meals and supplies during the recent Monty and Bean Creek fires on the Sisters Ranger District. Smaller fires like these do not get national caterers, which are in extremely short sup- ply this year for a variety reasons. At least three of the restaurants (Martolli9s, Angeline9s, and Mazatlan) significantly changed their operating schedule on very short notice by either closing to the general public or ask- ing their staff to work late into the night. Angeline9s also postponed their annual staff-appreciation rafting trip so the firefighters would have hot breakfasts and healthy meals. We appreci- ate your efforts! Thanks to: Rays Food Place 3 Sisters; Tate & Tate Catering; Martolli9s Pizza of Sisters, Angeline9s Bakery; Mazatlan 3 Redmond; Regio9s Café 3 Redmond; Subway 3 Sisters/Bend; Olive Garden 3 Bend; Sandwich Factory 3 Prineville; and Bi-Mart 3 Sisters (for Gatorade, which nobody else could supply because of the Gatorade shortage). Angela Lund admits that she didn9t know anything about Sisters when her then- husband Jim announced that he had a job opportunity here back in 1998. <When Jim said, 8Hey, I9ve got a job interview in Sisters, Oregon, I said, 8Where is that?9= Going from metro Oregon to a then very small town on the east side of the Cascades was a bit of a culture shock, but Angela adapted 4 and before long, Sisters was truly home. Lund raised three chil- dren here: Erik; Sonja; and Peter. She has nurtured deep friendships and become a part of the cultural life of her community. She9s worked at Angeline9s Bakery and for Habitat for Humanity. And now, she9s part of the team at The Nugget. Lund fills the position recently held by Lisa May, who has moved into a full-time posi- tion with her church. Lund manages the front office and The Nugget¾s classified advertising, among a bewil- dering array of other tasks. Lund already had a rela- tionship with the newspaper, having worked as a free- lancer in years past. <I was excited when I saw Angela Lund PHOTO BY JESS DRAPER Angela Lund is a new face behind the front desk at The Nugget. the ad in the paper,= she said. <I thought it would be fun to be back in the newspaper world.= Editor in Chief Jim Cornelius was excited to see Lund9s résumé pop up. <We didn9t really know what to expect in hiring for this position right now,= he I was excited when I saw the ad in the paper.
