money may draw more
logging competitors to the
Estacada Timber Festival
July 28-30.
Peggy Shears, activities
coordinator, says she ex
pects more entrants in
logging events this year than
in the past due to increased
prize money.
“ We’ve increased the prize
fund about three and one half
times for this year,” Shears
said. “ I think the extra
money should draw more
contestants to the logging
events.”
The total amount of prize
money up for grabs this year
is more than 85100. The

Seniors also had worried
that the number of rides
would be reduced by the
large contract The contracts
would be paid on a coat per
ride system instead of the
current flat rate contracts,
said Bob Holdridge, director
of the Area Agency on Aging
“ We feel we'd much rather
have the cost per ride con

the company can provide
more for less fare
“ We feel that with those
adjustments, (service) w ill
