Sandy shows 6em
which way to go
Sandy Matheny, 25-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Orval Matheny of Heppner, was the subject of a lively fea
ture story in the Dec. 27 issue of The Oregonian. The article,
written by Mike Conrad, Oregonian correspondent, featured
Sandy's ("don't call her Sandra," the story warned) adven
tures and misadventures as informational specialist for the
Columbia Gorge Ranger District of Mount Hood- Nn.tir.r.ai
Forest.
Living in Gresham and working out of the ranger station
at Springdale, Sandy spends much of her time during
camping season dealing with the public, enforcing
regulations and putting on special campground slide shows
and programs.
Sandy met one of her first challenges curbing
shortcutting by hikers who forged their own trails on steep
slopes, causing costly erosion in what the Oregonian
article described "characteristic fashion". She made hand
written signs designed to capture the hiker's imagination.
"Stepping off the pavement is no joke. You may land in
poison oak." and "Running from rocks sure makes me pale. I
wish that nut would stay on the trail." were just two of her
creations. And they seemed to have worked.
While a student at Heppner High School, Sandy was
known for singing at weddings and being part of a
performing group named "Page Twelve". She now sings and
plays guitar around the campfire for campers in her
campground programs.
Sandy mentioned her Heppner wheat ranch and singing
background several times in the Oregonian feature. About
her public singing stint, she said "One of my biggest learning
experiences was when I was 17 and singin' in a bar. Singing in
bars in small towns where you know everybody is easy.
Everybody's friendly. I love a stage, which, if I didn't, I
wouldn't be in the right job...."
Future plans? "I love it here," said Sandy, "But I
definately want to move. I've always had pretty loose feet
and I want to go. I like it where it's hot and dry. Somewhere
in Arizona, under a saguaro sipping a mint julep. I also
wouldn't mind a stint in Washington D.C."
Sandy's mother, Pauline Matheny, said the article
described her pretty well: "She's always had lots of spirit
and ambition."
Sandy hasn't forgotten her home town and visits friends
and family regularity.
