A6 NEWS Wallowa County Chieftain Wednesday, December 11, 2019 Wallowa, Lostine not left behind in bazaar bevy Lower Valley had holiday bazaars Saturday By Bill Bradshaw Wallowa Valley Chieftain Wallowa and Lostine were not to be left behind in the bevy of bazaars held recently, with the Christ- mas Bazaar at the Wal- lowa Senior Center and the Southfork Grange Christmas Bazaar in Lostine on Satur- day, Dec. 7. Karolyne Doss, who was in charge of the Wallowa bazaar, said there were 23 vendors there. She said she hoped the proceeds from renting the tables and sales of food would allow a dona- tion to the senior center of $600 to $700 when all was said and done. The scent of homemade clam chowder and ham- and-bean soup greeted those who entered the senior cen- ter. Doss was pleased with the turnout to see the wide variety of rugs, hats, quilts, tanned deerskin, holiday décor, jewelry, candy, home- made soap and more at the bazaar. In addition to the sights and smells, the Wallowa bazaar was the only one vis- ited Saturday where live music greeted visitors. John Raines on guitar and Laura Skovlin on banjo played and sang holiday favorites for bazaar-goers. The pair are members of Wallowa Val- ley’s Local Yokels musical group. But Lostine was not to be outdone. Three years after the grange burned, it’s been refurbished and is now open Katherine Stickroth There’s a variety of forms and pictures to color for the Wallowa Library Coloring contest. Prizes include new books for all ages. (It’s a library!)

She said she was pleased with the turnout and the grange hopes to make the bazaar a yearly event. She said that since they have virtually no overhead, they can offer table rentals at the rock-bottom price of $5 each. “This is the place to sell,” Cypher said, adding that 13 vendors took her up on the offer this year. A colorful Christmas is circling Wallowa this season with the Wallowa Library at the center. Deb- bie Lind, Library Direc- tor, has created a commu- nity Christmas coloring contest, where participants from toddler to adult may pick up an age-appropri- ate picture to color, return it for posting on the library window, and community members may vote on their selection. Prizes will be awarded for each age category. Lind formed the idea when she spoke with patrons and members of the Friends of Wallowa Library on ideas to increase use of the library. The book selections range from out- of-print publications to the newest best seller. Shelves are also lined with a wide array of DVD movies for all ages.

Wallowa residents and library patrons will be able to judge the entries beginning Dec. 17. They’ll be displayed in the Library windows. Local participation in the library is ever on Lind’s mind. “This is a safe and quiet place, where students can do homework or just hang out. I help people on our computers complete online job applications, food han- dler’s licenses, unem- ployment forms and other internet activities.” The interview is interrupted as a patron asks for help to open a computer fi le. Holly Goebel brings her three year old daughter, Laini, to check out books. “She’s working on her col- oring sheet. She just does a little during quiet time at home,” she said. “There is no pressure. We learned about it when a friend and I brought our children here for a play date.” “This library could not function without our vol- unteers,” Lind said. Volun- teers allow me to do many other library things, like organize coloring contests. They are invaluable.” Christmas color- ing sheets were distrib- uted to the elementary and junior high students. Oth- ers may pick up coloring sheets at the Library. Com- pleted pictures are due by December 13. They will be displayed on the Library windows December 16-23 where the Wallowa com- munity will be the judges and vote. Winners will be announced December 20 and prizes can be picked up the week of December 23. Lind looks forward to displaying the artwork. “This is a fun event for everyone to enjoy the library.” facebook.com/ Wallowa Cozy Gifts Galore!
