Volunteers needed in Central Oregon
SMART (Start Making A
Reader Today) will again begin its
tenth year in Central Oregon in the
fall of 2000. SMART provides
trained volunteers and new books to
children in kindergarten, first and
second grades, and will now serve
third graders. The SMART program
is sponsored by local businesses,
foundations and service
organizations. The goals of the
program are to help get children to
grade level by the time they leave
elementary school, which will
increase the number of children
graduating from high school.
There are 23 SMART schools in
Central Oregon's three counties this
year. Our goal is to read to 25 of
the kindergarten, first, second and
third graders. We will need
approximately 1,450 volunteers to
read to all of the eligible children.
The benefits of SMART include
students coming to school more
often, improved student self-esteem,
high student reading assessments and
volunteers returning to work more
productive.
We need volunteers who can
give an hour a week and want to
make a difference in the life of a
child. Call your local school or the
Central Oregon SMART office at
383-6466.

The much-anticipated
groundbreaking of the National
World War II Memorial took place
Nov. 1 1, Veterans Day, on the Na
tional Mall in Washington D.C.
Originally proposed in the
U.S. House of Representatives in
1987, the memorial was officially
authorized in 1993. The memorial
design and siting process went
through 18 public hearings over the
course of five years.
President Bill Clinton dedi
cated the site on Veterans Day 1995
and reviews by various planning
groups cleared the way for
groundbreaking.
"The National Capital Plan
ning Commission approval sends a
message to all that the legacy of
America's participation in the most
significant event of the 20 century
will be appropriately honored on our
National Mall," said Ambassador
Hayden Williams, chairman of the
World War II Memorial committee.
"The memorial will be an inspiring
tribute to the spirit, sacrifice and com
mitment of those who served in the
armed forces and at home to ensure
our nation's freedom and democ
racy." A group called Veterans to
Save the Mall asked a federal court
in early October to block construc
tion of the memorial, arguing that
government officials had not com
plied with the law. At the heart of the
dispute is the belief by some that the
planned memorial should not be sited
on the location selected.
However, representatives
from the American Legion,
AMVETS, Disabled American Vet
erans, the Non Commissioned Offic
ers Association, and the Veterans of
Foreign Wars publicly supported de
cisions made during the planning pro
cess. "It's time to build the me
morial in this prominent place as a
fitting tribute to the veterans who
served for freedom and against tyr
anny," said Richard Schneider, of
state and veterans affairs for the Non
Commissioned Officers Association,
Oregon highway dedicated to veterans
The Oregon portion of Inter
state 205 will soon be known as the
"Veterans Memorial Highway." The
highway will join others in the Blue
Star Memorial Highway program and
will honor all veterans who honorably
served their nation.
The Vietnam Veterans of
America, Chapter 392 in Portland,
undertook the renaming and dedica
tion project, spearheaded by John
Neuman and Mike Breshears of
Chapter 392. The project has the sup
port of veterans and civic organiza
tions, and federal and state legislators.
A dedication ceremony took
place on Veterans Day at Willamette
National Cemetery. Signs dedicating
the interstate highway as Veterans
Memorial Highway were unveiled at
the end of the dedication.
Speakers for the event in
cluded State Representative Kurt
Schrader, State Senator Rick Metsger,
U.S. Congressman Earl Blumenauer,
and Major General Alex Burgin.
Korean War Memorial established
Wind and rain greeted the
hundreds who turned out for the long
awaited dedication of the Oregon
Korean War Memorial in Wilsonville
recently. Spirits remained high, how
ever, as those assembled saw the re
sults of a six-year effort by Oregon
veterans and others to build a fitting
memorial to those who made tremen
dous sacrifices in the Korean War.
A 94-foot red granite wall
engraved with the names of Oregon's
dead and missing, and telling the story
of the Korean War was the focus of
the day's ceremonines. One of the
purposes of the memorial is to edu
cate those who know little of the war.
"This is not only a memo
rial, but an educational experience as
well," said Don Cohen, president of
the Oregon Trail Chapter of the Ko
rean War Veterans Association. "It's
more or less a thank you to the sol
diers. Too many people don't know
what the Korean War was about."
Sometimes referred to as the
"Forgotten War," the Korean War
lasted more than three years and
ended in 1953 with a stalemate be
tween China and North Korea. The
war resulted in the loss of more than
54,000 American lives, in addition to
more than 8,000 missing in action.
Oregon's loss was 298 killed or miss
ing. The memorial project was
privately funded with major assis
tance from Oregon's Korean-American
community, Hyundai Semicon
ductors America, and the government
of South Korea. The memorial cost
approximately $450,000.
The dedication ceremony
included singing of the national an
thems of both the United States and
the Republic of Korea. The Pilgrim
Choir, directed by Mrs. Jung Hee
Joeng, also performed Korean folk
music. Congratulatory remarks were
offered by Clackamas County Com
missioner Bill Kennemer, , Korea
Cold War Family Association Presi
dent Ann Bakkensen, Chariman of
the Korean Memorial Fund Raising
Committee Sam Kwak, and U.S. Con
gresswoman Darlene Hooley.
The memorial is located jn
Wilsonville's Town Center Park, on
the east side of Interstate 5, off exit
283. '

Salmon Corps to begin
January 2001
The Earth Conservation Corps'
(ECC) award-winning Salmon Corps
will begin the 2001 program year in
January. The program year will con
clude in mid-November 2001.
Salmon Corps program years
had previously begun in October and
ended in August. This change is in
response to our partners request for
services during planting periods in
September. Because of this change,
Salmon Corps will not be available
for service between the months of
September- December 2000.
"We, as an organization, have an
opportunity to evaluate how we've
served the community during the past
six years," said Charles F. Sams III,
Northwest Director. "We will be fo
cusing on building a stronger pro
gram that continues to meet the needs
of the environment and communities
we serve."
Salmon Corps began in 1994
with a goal of energizing Native
American young adults ( 1 8-25 years
old) to repair the disappearing
salmon habitats of the Columbia
River Basin. This approach fulfills
ECC's mission of reclaiming two of
the country's most threatened re
sources: me environment and our dis
advantaged young people.
Salmon Corps is a dynamic part
nership between the Nez Perce Tribe,
Shoshone-Bannock Tribes, Confed
erated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian
Reservation, Confederated Tribes of
Warm Springs, Confederated Tribes
and Bands of the Yakama Nation,
City of Portland, AmeriCorps, U.S.
Department of Energy Bonneville
Power Administration, Columbia
River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission,
and various corporations.
Since its inception, Salmon
Corps members have successfully
built over 4 1 0 miles of riparian fenc
ing, outplanted tens of thousands of
native trees and vegetation, released
over 8.5 million salmon and resident
fish within the Columbia River Ba
sin (160,000 square miles), assisted
over 25,000 people within five flood
zones during flash flood and other
high water events, and worked with
over 7,000 students in environmen
tal education, reading, and math. .
We look forward to continuing
Salmon Corps service to the commu
nities and environment of the Pacific
Northwest in January 2001. Please
contact the ECCNW office at 503-249-0820
for information about
scheduling service projects for the
2001 program.
