lowa Lake this year.
Gary Bethscheider, owner

“I am trying to make it
better this year than last
year,” Bethscheider said in a

Donations can be brought
to him at the Stubborn Mule,
mailed to the chamber at
P.O. Box 1001, Joseph,
OR 97846 or dropped off
in donation boxes located

The annual “Shake the
Lake” fi reworks display,
which usually is put on from
a raft fl oating in the north
end of the lake, is scheduled

of Commerce both canceled
plans to help fund the eff ort.
Bethscheider said the
Wallowa County Chamber is
donating $1,000.
“So far, the county com-
missioners have allowed us
access to the county docks
and Sheriff Joel Fish said he
will assist us with the county
boat,” and the board is donat-
ing $2,000, he said.
