-f f-T'J"?!"f yt"1"Tr-r it f Tff r r r -r t-'rTf r r r if-" r The Gazette-Times, Heppner, Ore., Thurday, July 21, 1977 FIVE Chairmen named No missed opportunities for Princess Krynn . The rolling hills begin to pleat, contours drop and rise steeply on both sides and the road has more than its share of second gear-curves. Such are the changes noticed on the route to the Kirk-Robinson ranch in the Sand Hollow area. Pulling into the driveway, the sharp angles of the hills focus your attention on the ranch center and it soon becomes apparent that for Princess Krynn Robinson, a good deal of her activities are directed towards the barn and its occupants. Krynn has been involved in the showing, riding, training and general care of animals for most of her years. She knows her business well and has a wall full of awards to prove it. An inclination towards working with animals runs in the Robinson family. Her father, Don, operates the 1800-acre ranch which is primarily pasture land for the registered polled Herefords he raises there. The ranch was homesteaded by Krynn s grandparents and is eight years shy of reaching the century farm designation. Krynn's mother, Merlyn, has a preference for working with horses she shares an Arabian gelding with her daughter and has put in many behing-the-scene hours organizing the upcoming 4-H horse show. There's rarely a weekend when older brother Kyle can't be found in the thick of the nearest rodeo action. With that type of familial influence, Krynn has gained a wide variety of experience with iivestock and horses. Spending time on the family ranch, has also added to her background. "I do any and every ranch detail you can think of," Krynn said. "Everything from moving sprinkler pipe to fixing fences to milking the cow." She still finds time to work with her show animals or ride one of her four horses sometimes up to four hours a day. Although she lists horse showing as her favorite hobby, Krynn said the project she most enjoys are the various Extention Events... with Birdine Tullis Many 4-H Events Scheduled: Events will be coming thick and fast in the 4-H program from now until county fair. Leading off will be the Pre-Fair Style Revue train ing, Tuesday, July 26, 2 p.m. at the Heppner Elementary Multipurpose Room. This promises to be a fun event, and something new for every one. The Tacky Tailor 4-H club of lone, a group of older 4-H members, have accepted the leadership for the style revue training, and are planning an afternoon of learning and surprises for all the 4-H girls in the county. Leaders for the Tacky Tailors are Ruth Mc Cabe, Rikka Tews and Barb Peterson, members are Jan Peterson, Natalie Tews, Cathy Palmer, Joan Doherty, Deb and Donna Palmer, Carol, Grace, Michelle and.' Janet McElligott. You can see all have had years of exper ience in style revue, and will have much to share with the younger members. Events for the Horse Club members will start with the annual Horse Judging Con test, Thursday evening, July 28, 6:30 p.m. at the Fair grounds, Heppner. Eight members from Umatilla County will be there to provide classes in showmanship, horsemanship, and conformation to be judged. All horse members are alerted to be there promptly, and bring a pencil. The horse judging team to represent Morrow County at State Fair will be selected at this time, as well as the chance to pick up a few pointers on both showing and equitation. August 3, a team of horse club members from Morrow County will travel to Umatilla County Fair to provide classes for the Umatilla 4-H members to judge. The annual 4-H Horse Show will be held at the Fair grounds, Heppner, on Sunday, August 7, starting in the morning and continuing through the afternoon. Many valuable awards have been collected from local sponsors for this event, so all members will want to be on hand to participate. State Fair par ticipants will be selected at the event as horse activities and shows at the state fair begin on August 21. A number of our local members have recently be come interested in English Equitation, so you'll see a good show on the 7th, includ ing Western and English equitation, showmanship, colt classes. Contestants must use the same horse in equitation and showmanship. Leaders Des Witt, Irrigon, and Merlyn Robinson, Heppner, will serve as superintendents of the horse show, assisted by other county leaders. Reminder to 4-H Members in the Sheep Project County fair book states that all market lambs must be shorn at least 30 days, and not more than 60 days prior to fair (or that is the way it should read). Plans are underway to set up a date for members to have their lambs sheared. Any members needing this service should call the Extension office, or Mark Sargent, leader of the Hoof and Horn 4 H club. Macrame Club. ..Summer Fun Every Thursday afternoon, you'll find a group of busy 4-H members in the park at Irrigon, tying knots and hav ing fun. Classes will continue until about mid-August, so there should be a good display of 4-H Macrame at county fair. The park in Irrigon attracts many people on a hot summer day, so the members have many visitors stopping by to inquire about what is going on, and to comment on tiojr vvork. Youth Range Camp For the first time in a number of years, Morrow County will have representa tives at the Oregon Youth Range Camp. Melody Goch nauer and Debbie Klaus will be attending the August 1-7 event, over in Grant County at the base of Strawberry Moun tain. I feel really good about this, as two years ago I attended the camp and assisted with an evaluation to determine if the camp should be a co-ed event. I found the program most informative, with instructors from Oregon State University, Forest Service and Soil Con servation, as well as Exten sion Service. Youth attend from all of Oregon, and learn many things relating to con servation of our environment, range, wildlife and forest management, plus many op portunities for leadership development. John Scharff, co-author or several books about eastern Oregon delighted me with his story telling by campfire light, and I'm sure he'll be there again to share his stories of the bygone days with this group of campers. Scholarships for the girls were provided by Morrow County Livestock Growers and the District Soil and Water Conservation Associa tion. Advice On Hamburger Sausage Safety A number of recipes for hamburger sausage have been circulating around the country in the past few months. They are really tasty, and a good use of hamburger for those judging contests. "I'm kind of pulled between showing cows and showing horses but I like them both," she said. Krynn joined 4-H at age 9 and has been involved in horse projects for six years and beef projects for seven years. Realizing that her agricultural interests can lead to other benefits, Krynn joined FFA three years ago and has made steady progress in leadership and achievement roles. This year she was the recipient of the State Farmers Degree, becoming the first female in her chapter or district to receive the award. Krynn, an upcoming senior at Heppner High School, is now serving as president of her FFA chapter and last year attended the national FFA convention in Kansas City, Missouri. Next year she is looking forward to securing a state FFA office at the Oregon convention held in Albany in March. "You've just got to get out and meet people," Krynn said. "You have to be outgoing and introduce yourself." She carried the same outlook into her activities with this year's Fair Court. Again, the family background is apparent her mother is a former Morrow County Fair and Rodeo queen and an aunt on both sides of the family has served as Princess. "Basically, tho court rpquiro bpinn ahle to speak in public and maintain your poise," Krynn said "I wanted to be on the court because I'm nrniirl ot wi.i i' repi .ents. I like Morrow County and I think it's quit:' an honor. With the numerous court appearances and activities, Krynn has had plenty of opportunities to get the message across. She enjoys the chance to communicate, and whatever the medium livestock showing, FFA and 4-H leadership or representing the Morow County Fair and Rodeo Court the intent comes through clearly. HID who have a large supply" in their freezers. Precautions should be taken to be sure the sausage is safe to eat, cautions our OSU Extension Food specialist, Carolyn Raab. Use the recommended cur ing salt. The sodium nitrite in this salt inhibits the growth of bacteria. Keep the diameter of the sausage rolls small (Vi to 2 inches) to allow for heat penetration throughout. Use an oven thermometer to be sure the baking tempera ture is at least 140 degrees F. (The lowest marked tempera-! ture on the oven setting may be used.) Once finished, keep the sausage regrigerated or frozen to inhibit bacterial growth. s) Save Now. ..Here's How Qjp a nm. x 'Nil xx rM r - " I IMET I.
