A longtime Astoria-area family celebrated 50 years of continuous reunions, with
74 in attendance, on Aug. 16. Family members include the Haukes, Henningsens,
Wisbecks, Drilicas and Rasumssens. The oldest attendees were Bill Wisbeck, 95,
and Nels Rasmussen, 92. A weekend of camping, good food, reminiscing, games
and the traditional hay ride were enjoyed by family and friends.
Held in various locations since the original gathering at the Olney Grange Hall,
the reunion has been held at the Henningsen Farm on Oregon Highway 202 for
the past 25 years. Originally a dairy farm, now a home to beef cattle, the farm was
established in 1902, when Thor and Kristine Henningsen immigrated to America
from Denmark.

frame,” Joyce Ervin, di-
rector of Child and Family
Development Programs at

“It has always been a bal-
ancing act to trade one hear-
ing machine between three
centers,” Raedetta Castle,
Seaside Elks past officer,
Seaside Head Start Center
manager and the main grant
writer, said. “This addition-
al machine will make it so
much easier to get all our
kids tested within 45 days.”

The Clatsop County 4-H
program is looking for Clo-
verbud Club leaders for the
youngest 4-H members, who
aren’t quite ready to partic-
ipate in many of the project
areas and/or activities that
their older brothers and sis-
ters can.
The emphasis is on par-
ticipation, learning and team-
work, not competition. The
youth might learn about nutri-
tion while helping to prepare
simple snacks, or plant seeds
and learn what they need to do
to make them grow. They can
explore science, build with
Legos, and so much more.
Those interested in work-
ing with this age group (youth
ages 5 to 8) should contact
the Oregon State University
([WHQVLRQ 2I¿FH DW
8573.
Traditional Club volunteer
leaders in the project areas of
art and home ecomonics are
also needed. As youth sign up
for 4-H, more volunteer lead-
ers may be needed in other
project areas, as well.
