The Board voted to allow the Heppner Senior Citizen meal site to be located in the dance hall and middle kitchen of the pavillion building on the Morrow County Fair grounds. The twice weekly meal site will move to the Fair Grounds sometime in September. The location and added space will allow the coordinators of the program to provide more activities at the meals and make the site more of a Senior Citizen center. The Heppner meal site is currently held in the Elks Lodge. The senior citizen delegation present said the Elks had been most gracious to them, but they felt they were imposing upon the Elks' activities. The senior citizens will rent the Fair facilities two days a week for the next two or three years until they can build their own center. The senior citi zens groups expressed hopes that as many as 100 senior citizens would be attending the meals. They felt that the program was of real benefit to all senior citizens in the area. In other business the Fair Board discussed plans for the renovation of a metal storage th niri poultry and rabbit exhibit barn) into an antique machinery museum. Harold "Shorty" Peck is to begin work on the museum shortly. He hopes to have part of it ready for viewing by fair time.
