Simnasho dedicates veterans memorial
By D. uBing" Bingham
Spilyay Tymoo
Cheslcy Yahtin is a stand
up kind of a guy. He felt the
veterans from the Simnasho
area needed to be honored,
so he bought the materials
for a community plaque to
be put up near the Three
Warriors store, and he got the
job done.
"I didn't want to draw any
attention to myself, I just
wanted everyone to know
how many people from the
north end participated in the
war," he says.
Yahtin, a Korean War vet
eran, began the project focus
ing just on the combat vet
erans. "That's what a veteran is
to me," he says, "a man who
has drawn blood and had
blood drawn."
But that didn't work too
well. He soon found out
there's no way to tell who
worked in combat arenas and

Extension hopes park clean-up will be annual event
Several people this past sum
mer pitched in and cleaned up
the Elmer Quinn Park. The ef
fort was organized by the OSU
Extension Office, which helped
with funding.
Lynn Breese, of the Warm
Springs OSU Extension Office,
said during a recent tribal com
mittees meeting that Extension
is hoping to make the clean-up
and annual event.
She said that the Warm
Springs Extension Office re
ceived $1,000, as start-up
money for the park clean-up.
Some but not all of the
money was used for the clean
up this past summer. So some
funding remains to continue the
clean-up again next summer,
said Breese.
About 25 people participated
in the clean-up. This was a good
turnout, considering that the
work was done on a weekday
afternoon. Along with the vol
unteers who did the work, oth
ers who contributed include the
following:
Les Schwabb, which donated
the trash bags.
Earth20, which contributed
the bottled water.
The Dollar Tree Store, whch
helped with the gloves for the
workers.
Warm Springs Utilities also
provided support and coopera
tion. Larry Macy made a video
of the clean-up project, show
ing the park before, during and
after the volunteers scoured the
area with trash bags.
