Christina Witham, of
Oregon Sign Company in
Baker City, was recruited,
per recommendations, to
handle the graphics design
work. “She does great
work,” Furtney said.
Furtney said Witham
replicated graphics from
original Basche-Sage Mall
signs found in the base-
ment of the building, and
placed them on the glass of
the double door entrance
on Broadway. “They’re
beautiful,” Furtney said.
For now, Batchelor said,
most of the interior work
involves cleaning, moving
appliances out, removing
countertops, and determin-
ing what needs replacing,
and what layout will be,
with work paused until
after Christmas and the
New Year.
Furtney provided a
teaser, regarding a mystery
appliance, expected to be
installed: “It’s something
very unique, and, very
cool. It will be exciting, it
will stir up interest,” she
said.
Furtney said that, with
other businesses to run
full-time, it’s diffi cult to
fi nd time to spend remod-
eling Charley’s. “We’re
doing it as fast as we can,
and, believe me, I want to
be open,” she said.
Furtney and Batchelor
said they’d like to continue
some of the traditions of
Charley’s, such as work-
ing with local fi re and
police departments to offer
ice cream vouchers for
children.
Furtney said, “That’s our
vision, too,“ about continu-
ing traditions, and, being
a big part of the commu-
nity. The grand opening is
expected long before next
summer, she said.

Random
Acts of
Kindness
Each week The Baker
County Press will in-
clude a list—all anony-
mous, of course—of the
good deeds and random
acts of kindness people
from around the area
have witnessed. To in-
clude something you’ve
seen or experienced,
email News@TheBaker-
CountyPress.com with
“Random Acts of Kind-
ness” in the subject line.
We’ll be sure to include
your story.
• I saw you hauling a
box of kids coats and
clothes in to donate
when you probably
could have sold them
online. I know your fam-
ily needs the money, so I
marvel at the kindness.
• Thank you to the friend
of a friend who picked
up the package for me in
La Grande and hauled it
as far as North Powder.
The roads weren’t that
great this week and your
kindess helped take a
way a little of that stress.
