Chats With Your Home Agent
July 12-15 Set for 4-H
Camp at Cutsrorth
By ESTHER KIRMIS
We're knee deep in plans these
days in the county agent's office
preparing for the annual 4-H
summer camp to be held in
Cutsforth Park (20 miles south
east of Heppner), July 12-15.
This is a 4-H event geared to
the younger 4-H members. Only
hoys and girls between 9 and
13 are accepted. Older 4-H'ers
have the opportunity to attend
4-11 summer school on the OSU
campus in June.
The development of the 4-H
camp is a significant milestone
in t he growth of 4-H program
in (lie county. Close to ten years
ago the leaders banded together
and obtained an acreage in the
mountains in Cutsforth park and
erected a log shelter that con
tains a kitchen, store room and
dining area as the headquarters
of the camp. Tents, cots and
mattresses and kitchen equip
ment were obtained from the
government's surplus property
division. The leaders and parents
put in all this effort as they
believed that every 4-H member
should have the experience of
camping, once in his life.

the home of Marlow's parents,
Mr. and Mrs. Frank Marlow.
Party Honors Dick Skoubo
Mrs. Ralph Skoubo entertained
with a party at her home Satur
day in honor of her son Dick's
15th birthday. Guests were the
five who had been attending
school with Dick together since
the first grade. They included
Jim Partlow, Steve Partlow, Den
nis Gronquist, Roger Zivney and
Dewena West. Others present
were Dick's cousins, Anna Marie
and Ronna DeMauro of Umatilla.
A program of nature lore,
hikes, safety, outdoor living,
crafts, and sports is developed
each year for the four day pro
gram. This year we've scheduled
a representative from the wild
life commission, Pacific Power
and Light, forest service, and
county health department to
take part. Two cooks and two
extension agents complete the
staff.
Over 137 applications came in
for the 4-H summer camp this
year. We have room for only 00,
so a choice had to be made.
A committee of leaders met on
June 13 and made a selection.
Leaders had listed on a camp
sheet their members wishing to
go to camp and the number of
years they had gone. From this
the committee chose 24 boys and
36 girls who had never been to
camp before or were deserving.
Older ones were selected first
as they will not have a chance
after they have passed 13 years.
Seventeen boys and girls were
selected as alternates. If regular
campers had not paid their
$6.50 by June 27 we will notify
alternates and they will bo given
the opportunity.
Gilliam county will be holding
camp July 8-il at Cutsforth
camp and Ernie Kirsch, the
county agent, has written that
they will have room for ten
more. If any Morrow county
campers would like to apply
they can come to the county
agent's office and deposit a fee
of $6.50. This will be on a first
come, first-served basis.
Ten counsellors (older 4-H
members) will assist the agents
in conducting the camp. So far
