of products is available, just
in time not only for the holi-
day season, but for year-
round needs, including gift-
giving.
With regard to using
local contractors, Bill noted
that not only did he and
Chris realize lesser costs
than they had anticipated,
but that if there ever are any
problems, there will be a
quick “local” response.
Besides all that, he said,
the contractors have a pro-
ject of which they are justi-
fiably proud -- and it’s right
in Downtown CJ.
The couple opened their
business 12 years ago last
month and appear willing to

Seven men in vehicle with
14 pounds of pot arrested
An Oregon State Police
traffic stop on Interstate 5
south of Roseburg in Doug-
las County led to the arrest
of seven people and the sei-
zure of more than 14 pounds
of marijuana and several
firearms.
At approximately 1:22
a.m. recently, an OSP
trooper stopped a 2002
Chevrolet Tahoe with
Washington license plates.
The vehicle, northbound
near milepost 119, was
stopped for an equipment
lighting violation. A second
trooper arrived to assist, and
both detected a strong odor
of marijuana.
A Douglas County
Sheriff’s Dept. deputy with
a drug detection canine and
other OSP troopers re-
sponded. Officers from
Douglas Interagency Nar-
cotics Team (DINT) also
responded to the scene and
assisted troopers.
The seven occupants
were detained, and a firearm
was discovered in the waist-
band of passenger Rafael
Contreras, 18.
The canine alerted on
the rear of vehicle where
officers found approxi-
mately 14.5 pounds of mari-
juana in a black garbage
bag. Four more handguns
were found in various loca-
tions inside the vehicle, two
of which had serial numbers
removed. Officers also
found $1,500 cash.
All seven occupants
were arrested and lodged at
Douglas County Jail for
delivery, possession, and
manufacturing a controlled
substance/marijuana; unlaw-
ful possession of a firearm;
and, obliteration of a serial
number from a firearm.
The seven suspects, be-
sides Rafael Contreras, are
identified as the driver,
Teodulo Valencia, 29; Ri-
cardo Valencia, 18; Maxi-
milla Valencia, 18; Rivera
Contreras, 29; Gerardo
Ayala, 18; and Salvador
Contreras-Paria, 40.
Their places of residence
were not immediately known.
Investigation continues.
Guv seeks Canadian business, eh?
Gov. Kulongoski was in
British Columbia, Canada
recently with the Oregon
Economic and Community
Development Dept. to par-
ticipate in a business mission
to strengthen economic ties
with Canada.
The trip also focused on
forthcoming environmental
and renewable energy initia-
tives, tourism opportunities,
and the 2010 Olympics to be
held in Vancouver, Canada.
Showing their talents were:
Judah Robinson with
Minuet in G, Happy Birth-
day, and Duet Rock.
Aleeya Gilcrest with
Puff the Magic Dragon and
Popeye’s Song.
Falyn Gilchrist with
Foxhunt and A Whole New
World.
Bo Dillon with Jurassic

Amanda Brooks with

Zack Blaylack with

Erin Dobie with In A
Special Place.
Brown played a solo,
Waterfall, and she and stu-
dent Dan Fiske performed
duets (she played an organ)
of Joy to the World and
Angels We Have Heard on
High.
Additionally, student
Abigail Robinson was
joined on the piano by
Brown in a duet of C.S.
Theme & Variations. The
audience was much amused
when Brown’s portion
meant she had to slide her
student off the bench onto
the carpet so that she could
reach the keys on the right.
