“This is a wonderful op-

tries, and strengthen area
communities through ongo-
ing collaborative work.”
Jack Southworth, facili-
tator for the Harney collab-
orative, agreed.
He said the group looks
forward “to continuing
working with conserva-
tionists, industry, agencies,
recreationists and the For-
est Service in our efforts to
bring about healthy, fire-tol-
erant forests that provide
forest products, wildlife
habitat, local jobs and great
recreational opportunities
on the southern Malheur
National Forest.”
The collaborative groups
also requested additional
funding to help accelerate
the restoration work in the
expanded area. While those
funds aren’t available now,
the request is approved if
the money becomes avail-
able.
Steve Beverlin, Malheur
supervisor, called the ap-
proval an example of the
strong commitment the na-
tional and regional Forest
Service offices have for the
ongoing restoration work
on the Malheur and across
Eastern Oregon.
“The approved expan-
sion is a testament to our ex-
ceptional partnerships with
our public, communities
and collaboratives,” Bev-
erlin said. “As we expand
our efforts, we’ll continue
to seek common ground and
promote active public and
partner involvement.”
Grant County’s
0DNLQJ*UDQW&RXQW\DEHWWHUSODFH
WHERE DO YOU WORK OR VOLUNTEER AT: Board of
Directors of Grant Soil and Water Conservation District,
Treasurer for Grant County Farm Bureau, original and current member of Ag Water
Quality Local Advisory Committee
FAMILY MEMBERS: Wife Meredith L. Ediger, daughters Orissa A. Burghard and
Vernita L. Ediger, and son R. Jonathan I. Ediger.
WHERE YOU LIVE: Mt. Vernon, Oregon
OCCUPATION: Rancher (current). Teacher, retired after thirty years.
WHY IS EDUCATION IMPORTANT TO YOU: I always felt that my duty as an educator
was not to make little scientists, biologists or mathematicians out of the students in
my care, but rather to develop within them the two most significant attributes that
individuals need to be successful in life: to become responsible and to learn how to
think. One cannot occur without the other and it is the combination of these that
leads to success and a student doing the very best they can with what they have.
WHAT CAN FAMILIES DO AT HOME TO HELP WITH THE EDUCATION OF THEIR
CHILDREN: Few things are more significant than a sincere and active interest in the
progress, achievement(s) and activities of the student. This is very easy with sports
or athletic endeavors, but needs to also be extended to band, choir, FFA, science
shows/fairs and all activities of the student.
WHAT ARE SPECIFIC THINGS THE COMMUNITY CAN DO TO HELP YOUR SCHOOL: At
most athletic endeavors there is always positive community support, but for many
of the academic events the majority of supporters are the parents of those
participating. We help our schools when we support all of the activities and
endeavors of all of our students. Our School Board is composed of elected
volunteers, who usually hear from the community only when someone feels they,
the board, have made a poor decision. What they really need is to be given input
and hear your opinion to assist them in their decision-making process and be shown
that their commitment to our youth and future community leaders is appreciated.
Please publish my tribute in the special Memorial Section in May.
