A8 News wallowa.com January 14, 2015 Wallowa County Chieftain PLAN: Chairman says revision ‘sucks’ Continued from Page A1 “I think the Forest Service understands that the plan, as written, isn’t tenable,” she said. “I think the three forest supervisors – Tom Montoya of the Wallowa-Whitman, Steve Beverlin of the Mal- heur, and Martin – get it and will try to make it right.” Martin expressed the same sense of optimism following the meeting as did Dunn and Roberts. “I felt very hope- ful after the meeting,” said Martin. “People are very pas- sionate (about their forests), and that’s a good thing. We knew a lot of folks are not very pleased about where we are sitting. That was clear as a bell.” Early during a meeting attended by an estimated 50 persons representing environ- mental groups, counties, for- esters, Forest Service person- nel, and others, Commissioner Roberts asked for a show of hands of those who had read the entire 1,400-page draft. By Castilleja’s count, about seven hands were raised, According to Martin, more than 1,000 comments have been received by the Forest Service since the draft was opened for public re- view. He said their calculations do not de- cipher pros and cons to the draft, but instead fo- Dunn cus on spe- FL¿FLVVXHV Martin says he cannot speak for the Forest Service, yet expressed his approval of an idea aired Jan. 8 where non-Forest Service groups such as county commission- ers might host future forest management plan infor- mational meetings. D u n n says he thinks it’s likely the proposed plan will Castilleja be revisited and now in- clude public feedback in the writing process. “They are not going to throw this down our throats,” says Dunn. In regard to the 1,400-page proposed document he still contends requires a complete re-write, Dunn said, “You can put lip- stick on a pig, but it’s still a pig.” Roberts, too, is outspoken about the proposed plan, the fate of which the Forest Ser- YLFH KDV \HW WR RI¿FLDOO\ GH- clare. She, like Dunn, is seek- ing more public involvement in the process of drafting a plan to manage three nation- al forests that include a total of 4.9 million acres of public land. “You can’t go off in a room for 10-15 years and write a document, hand it out, and ask people what they think,” Roberts says. Castilleja said he read about 300 pages of the draft document, found little dif- ferentiation from previous efforts, and read no further. One big concern Castilleja has about the Forest Service’s proposed plan, a concern ex- pressed by Dunn as well, re- gards the accuracy of science utilized to reach conclusions within the document. “I don’t trust their data,” says Castille- ja, referring to input from the U.S. Environmental Protec- tion Agency and by Endan- gered Species Act personnel WKDWZDVUHÀHFWHGLQWKHGUDIW document. DESTINY: %DUQH\¿UVWZLQQHUIURPFRXQW\VLQFH Continued from Page A1 Radford said that on the west side of the state, pageants actually take place during the rodeo. Three judges score the contestants on appearance, personality and horsemanship while the girls are in the arena. Barney’s Miss Oregon Ro- deo competition took place at the Philomath Frolic and Ro- deo from July 10-13 of 2014. The competition included the contestants getting judged on horsemanship skills, numerous interviews, including a mock TV interview, as well as pa- rade etiquette and arena riding. Barney said she found the speech part of the competition fairly easy, but the personality TXHVWLRQVVRPHZKDWGLI¿FXOW “I couldn’t understand the girl who was reading them. I didn’t know what to say, but I did the best I could.” Barney found the horse- manship aspect of the com- petition most enjoyable. “You’re in a rodeo where tons and tons of people are watch- ing you and that makes it real easy for me,” she said. Despite being the only contestant in her 8-12 age group, Barney still competed against contestants from 13- 19 and had to score at least 80 percent on her overall scores before receiving her crown. Radford gave her daughter the option of bowing out of the contest because of the possible humiliation involved if Barney didn’t meet the 80 percent scoring requirements competing only against her- self. In fact, Barney outscored her older “competitors.” Long hours of practice and attendance of several Miss Rodeo Oregon clinics helped Barney with her high scores.

It’s good to practice as much as you can, and that’s what I did,” Barney said. She also gave her horse, Music, credit for being such a help to her in the horsemanship tests. Radford told a story of her daughter walking around the family’s living room using a banana as a microphone and practicing her public speak- ing skills.

Barney orig- inally planned to start trying out for Teen Miss Rodeo Ore- gon after her fourteenth birth- day. “When I told my mom, she looked at me and said, ‘Maybe you should wait until you’re 16, so you can drive,’” Barney recounted as both mother and daughter laughed. “I don’t agree,” Barney add- ed. Destiny names Oregon’s ¿UVW 0LVV 5RGHR $PHULFD Mackenzie Carr, as a major inspiration as well as 2015 Miss Rodeo Oregon, Ju- lie Drescher, whom Barney knows personally. While Barney participates in a number of extracurricu- lar activities including base- ball and basketball and even cheerleading, her heart is with the rodeo life, and Rad- ford supports her daughter’s ambitions. “It’s who Destiny is, and as a parent, you can’t snuff that out.” The Cloverleaf Hall doors open at 4:30 p.m. for Barney’s Jan. 17 coronation. Sometime between 4:30 and the 6 p.m. dinner, the 2014 Junior Miss Rodeo Oregon, Alex Syvers- en, will place her crown on Destiny Barney’s head.
