Tippet learning the ropes as 4-H president
By ANN BLOOM
For the Wallowa County
Chieftain
WALLOWA COUNTY
— Sara Tippet has been
immersed in 4-H since she
was in the fourth grade.
Now, she has come full cir-
cle as the new president of
the Wallowa County 4-H
Leaders’ Association.
She was in 4-H for eight
years participating in the
Golden Arrow Livestock
Club, and is now a co-leader
for that club, along with
Nancy Maasdam, her former
leader. As a 4-H member,
she was also in the Wallowa
County Wranglers Horse
Club and participated in
4-H cooking and sewing.
She was also on the 4-H
court. It goes without say-
ing that she brings a lot of
4-H knowledge and expe-
rience to her new position
as president.
Tippet admits she is still
learning the ropes of the
job.
“I’m still learning a lot,”
she said, “and how it all
works.”
But she has help. “(We)
have a solid program in Wal-
lowa County and I’m inter-
ested in seeing what I can do
with that,” she said.
She specifi cally men-
tioned the knowledgeable
people and resources the
county has, such as other
4-H leaders, the Oregon
State University Extension
Service and other resources
as ones she can turn to for
help.
Some of her plans include
getting back into the schools
Not only has Tippet

Her position as president
is for two years. Prior to
becoming president, she was
vice president for two years.
She mentioned there

degree from Walla Walla
Community College.
“I have a passion for
cooking and baking,” she
said.
After moving back
to Wallowa County and
working for a bakery, she
accepted a position at Com-
munity Bank. She has been
with the bank for 10 years
and is the bank manager.
“Community Bank is
very community oriented,”
she said, which allows her
to be part of 4-H and Chief
Joseph Days.
Debi Warnock, the OSU
Extension agent, which
oversees the 4-H program,
is looking forward to work-
ing with Tippet, whom she
has known since she started
in 4-H.
“For me, I will rely
on her advice quite a bit
throughout the year. She
will be my right hand. I will
have close contact with her
regarding decisions on
4-H,” Warnock said.
Warnock said that the
4-H Leaders’ Association
is the fundraising and lead-
ership council of the 4-H
program.
She said she is anticipat-
ing, “partnering with her
(Tippet) and supporting her
new ideas and energy.
“We are so lucky. We
have such good volun-
teers that love our pro-
gram and are happy to
pass our traditions to the
next generation,” she
said.
Both Tippet and War-
nock have similar philos-
ophies of 4-H and what
it brings to youth and the
community. If there is one
thing Tippet wants people
to know about 4-H she said
it is what participation in
4-H can do for youth.
“4-H gives to kids,” she
said. “They learn a lot. It
taught me to speak, be sin-
cere and humble. Not just
in a show ring.”
She said youths in 4-H
learn to present themselves
to people and learn to com-
municate with their peers.
“That is a big part of
4-H,” she said. “You learn
life skills. As you get older,
you see that.”

Joseph chamber resists downtown sidewalk project
Concerned ODOT
work will interfere
with tourism
By BILL BRADSHAW
Wallowa County Chieftain
JOSEPH — A planned
project on Joseph’s Main
Street drew objections from
the Joseph Chamber of Com-
merce in a letter submitted to
the Joseph City Council at its
meeting Thursday, March 3.
The Oregon Depart-
ment of Transportation is
planning to install ramps to
upgrade sidewalks in com-
pliance with the Americans
with Disabilities Act begin-
ning this summer. The issue
has been discussed at council
meetings for months.
In the letter submitted by
Jude Graham of the chamber,
it was stated that the chamber
is concerned that ODOT is
not giving due consideration
to Joseph’s downtown that
will be adversely impacted
by construction scheduled
to take place during the peak
tourist season.
“At present, your con-
stituents, due to the lack of
open meetings, have not had
adequate time to thoroughly
review proposed site plans
and understand the ODOT
proposal,” the letter stated.
“Nor has there been suffi -
cient opportunity to commu-
nicate directly with ODOT
to completely develop and
understanding of all the
aspects and segments of the
ODOT project.”
The chamber also fears
ODOT is not taking into
consideration the time frame

project without hindering
tourism events downtown.
“They do not off er any
concessions to mediate the
impacts which may well be
more than what we had bar-
gained for,” the letter stated,
adding that the ODOT
schedule is at the peak time
for tourism events.
The letter said the cham-
ber does not want to elim-
inate the sidewalk project,
but wants to work with the
City Council to postpone it
to present concerns and lia-
bility issues before ODOT
breaks ground and launch
a social media and news-
paper campaign to solicit
public support of the City
Council to act on behalf of
the citizenry and business
community.
Pro-Tem Administrator
Brock Eckstein said after the
meeting that there have been
three public hearings on the
ODOT project in the past six
months.
“The
only
solution
brought to the hearings is to
either cancel it, which abso-
lutely can’t happen unless the
city wants to accept all liabil-
ity for ADA discrepancies, or
to kick the can down the road
more years, which we then
run the risk of ODOT either
pulling out altogether or just
doing it their way,” he said.
In another matter, the
council heard a library report
from Councilor Kirsten
Rohla on behalf of the absent
librarian Eric Shoudel. She
said that although the city
missed out on a previous
grant, a $15,000 grant is
coming through to pay for a
consultant in the city’s eff orts
to revamp the old Blackburn
Building at N. 100 East St.
The building will become
the new City Library. At the
same time, the current library
in City Hall will become a
meeting room for the council
and other purposes.
In other business, the
council:
• Accepted the resignation
of Councilor Tammy Jones.
No action toward replacing
her was taken.
• Changed an ordinance
establishing a city Plan-
ning Commission to require
members be registered vot-
ers within Wallowa County
and only allow one member
to live outside city limits or
be actively involved in the
real estate business.
• Approved an ordinance
to grant to Ziply Fiber North-
west a franchise for tele-
phone and other communi-
cations purposes.
• Approved a request by
Elkhorn Media to provide
radio and Facebook services.
• Reviewed a snow-re-
moval plan with a map
detailing the highest priori-
ties for snow plowing when
4 inches of fresh snow accu-
mulates on city streets.
• Formed a steering task
force for the proposed Dag-
gett Sports Complex on
North East Street.
• Approved street closures
for vendors for July 27-31
for the Chief Joseph Days
Rodeo.
• Approved street closures
for vendors for Aug. 26-27
for the Wallowa Mountain
Cruise.
The next council meeting
will be April 7.
