Local A2 Saturday, November 26, 2022 TURNING BACK THE PAGES 50 YEARS AGO from the Democrat-Herald November 26, 1972 Property owners in Hells Canyon along the Oregon-Idaho border have refused to accept Forest Service appraisals of their land, placing in jeopardy efforts to preserve 12,000 acres in the canyon. The Wallowa County planning com- mission has approved the 28.5-acre Salt Creek Ranch subdivision, and already about eight recreation home lots have been sold to three individuals. 25 YEARS AGO from the Baker City Herald November 26, 1997 Baker City expects to spend $15,000 to $20,000 to replace the heating and ventilation controls at Sam-O Swim Center. The work will be done late this year or early in 1998. The building’s 15-year-old pneumatic system includes an air compressor that sends air through tubes. Tempera- ture changes affect the air pressure in the lines, which causes valves to open or close. The system controls the temperature of the air in the building and of the water in the swimming pool. 10 YEARS AGO from the Baker City Herald November 26, 2012 Baker City councilors are being asked to award a bid for ultraviolet equipment that will attack a parasite found previ- ously in the city’s drinking water. ONE YEAR AGO from the Baker City Herald November 27, 2021 KEATING — Making fresh butter takes some work. Just ask Clara Jonas. “We had to shake it really long,” she says. Clara barely fi nishes her sentence before Ava Mason chimes in. “A long, long, long time,” she says. Clara takes up the story again. “I kept switching hands — I got so tired.” Clara and Ava are fi rst graders at Keating Elementary School, in the Keating Valley about 15 miles northeast of Baker City. On Monday, Nov. 22, they and their schoolmates made a Thanksgiving feast from scratch. Keating School, with students from preschool to grade 6, has an enrollment of 25 this year. Not too long ago, this week of Thanksgiving would see the school full of children and adults for the annual holiday meal prepared by the PTO for the students and local residents. But COVID restrictions affected the community event in 2020, and this year as well. Instead, Keating staff — Principal Amanda Wilde, teacher Toni Myers and paraprofessional Debbie Radle — shrunk the event to just the school, and involved every student in the preparation of the traditional feast. “We decided, why not just do it with the kids?” Wilde said. But “shrunk” doesn’t mean “small” — the turkey, donated by a neighbor, weighed 30 pounds and had to be split between two roasters. “We have such an invested community,” Wilde said. The meal preparation was divided between grades: • Kindergarten: corn • First: rolls • Second: gravy • Third: pumpkin pie • Fifth: stuffi ng • Sixth: mashed potatoes (The school doesn’t have any fourth graders this year.) Everyone, regardless of grade, was involved with the clean up. OREGON LOTTERY Baker City Herald • bakercityherald.com McQuisten attends Trump’s campaign announcement BY JAYSON JACOBY jjacoby@bakercityherald.com Kerry McQuisten sat in the ballroom at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida, and as Trump walked through the room she sensed the his- toric nature of what she was watching. A few minutes later, on the evening of Nov. 15, the former president announced that he would seek a second four-year term in the 2024 election. McQuisten, Baker City mayor and a 2022 Oregon gubernatorial candidate, de- scribed it as a “once-in-a-life- time experience.” “We were watching an his- toric event in the making,” she said. “I’m so glad I had the op- portunity to do that.” Less than a week earlier, Mc- Quisten had figured that when Trump announced his can- didacy — as he had recently been hinting he would do— she would be watching on TV. “I truly hadn’t expected to be invited,” she wrote in an email to the Baker City Herald. But after her invitation ar- rived on Nov. 11, McQuisten said she “had to scramble to make travel arrangements.” McQuisten accompanied Solomon Yue, the Oregon Re- publican Party’s national com- mitteeman to the Republican National Committee. McQuisten said that as far as she can tell, she and Yue were the only Oregonians in the au- dience of about 1,000 at Mar- a-Lago. McQuisten said she arrived at the estate about 90 min- utes before the gates opened at 6:30 p.m. Eastern time. She said Trump started his speech around 9 p.m. He spoke for at least an hour, she said. McQuisten said her and Yue’s seats were directly in front of the stage and in the center, “so we were right in front” of Trump, she wrote in the email. “There were about 1,000 people in the room, most standing at the back,” she wrote. “Right behind them was a huge bank of media, and the floodlights were something else.
