Great gathering at summer plant clinic
By OSU Master Gardeners Tina
Bumside and Edith McBean
. A great gathering of Warm
Springs residents attended the
second plant clinic at the OSU
Extension Services offices last
month.
This Lunch-and-Learn ses
sion focused on how to create
beautiful hanging flower baskets
and containers.
- With summer fruits now at
their peak, two dessert snacks
were prepared by the OSU
Master Gardeners - a peach
kuchen with whipped cream and
a" cherryblueberry crumb cake.
All participants received a note
book to start their own garden
journals.
After a demonstration of
proper planting techniques by
OSU Master Gardener Edith
McBean, volunteers from the
audience created their own bas
kets. All attendees were eligible to
win baskets. The lucky winners
were Danica Green who won
the hanging pocket basket,
Alberta Comedonn who won
the hanging wooden basket, and
Guy Chittenden who won the
large container.
Fara Currim, OSU Extension
Agriculture Agent, discussed
healthy soil composition. She
demonstrated the difference
between our sandy Central Or
egon soil and bagged nursery
soil, rich in compost and nutri
ents, which is recommended for
the baskets and containers.

Mothers Against Drunk Driving
tail
(AP) - High school students
from the Winnebago, Omaha
and Santee tribes will help teach
elementary school children on
the reservations about the dan
gers of using alcohol,
j American Indian languages,
tradition and spirituality will be
incorporated under a curricu
lum called "Protecting YouPro
tecting Me." Mothers Against
Drunk Driving developed the
program for a broad audience
and tailored it to the tribes.
, "Underage drinking perme
ates all races and ethnicities; its
tragedies are felt in every com
munity across the country," said
Wendy Hamilton, MADD na
tional president. "We want to
ensure all students can relate to
the lessons so they can make
smart, healthy decisions about
alcohol"
On Thursday, a sacred drum
beat echoed at South Sioux
City's Marina Inn as about 40
youths were recognized for
pledging to abstain from alco
hol and to become role models
to younger children and com
munity leaders on the reserva
tions. In the towns of Winnebago,
Walthill, Macy and Santee, pro
gram coordinators will work
beginning this fall with the stu
dents to implement the program
in the schools and in the com
munities. MADD used a grant from
the Department of Health and
Human Services, Center for
Substance Abuse Prevention to
adapt the curriculum, and re
ceived help from the Red Road
Project for Native American
Youth Leadership.
The Red Road Project was
created from a joint grant out
of the U.S. Department of Edu
cation and the Department of
Health and Human Services,
Center for Substance Abuse
Prevention.
The Red Road Project works
with teenagers, children and
leaders of the reservation com
munities to help prevent alco
hol abuse.
