Spruce up,
; visitors are
' The Morrow County Fair and Rodeo is coming upon us very
r soon now, and as usual we will be having many visitors
coming to our town for the activities.
A local woman who stopped by our office recently, related
an incident which should remind us of a responsibility we all
should have during this time of the year.
She told of sitting in a local cafe and overhearing a
conversation between two people from out of town. It seems
the visitors felt that Heppner looked a little "unkept."
Generally, the town looks pretty good, however, in the rush
of summer activities maintenance csn be pushed aside or
forgotten.
Check around your home or business in the coming week
for weeds and scrapes of paper. A good sprucing up will leave
a favorable impression on our visitors.
Letters To The Editor
i A worthwhile investment,
a successful project
To the editor:
I wish to thank the staff and
my students from the CETA
program for thier two years of
service within the community
of Heppner.
Two years ago solar energy
and landscaping of our public
swimming pool seemed like a
dream that would never come
to pass today that dream has
become a reality due to the
CETA program and the finan
cial support we have received
from people of our commun
ity. Today we are only $7,000 -short
of paying all debts incur--red
by our project.
Perhaps as you read this
article you may feel financial
ly motivated to help us com
plete our financial commit
ment by picking up your phone
and giving a Lions Club mem
ber or myself a call. For some
a financial contribution would
be of little burden, for others it

could be a tough commitment
to make. Remember that your
donation is tax deductible.
Your investment in the Hep
pner Swimming Pool is an
investment in a worthwhile
project for the citizens and the
youth in our community.
Our cost for oil to heat the
pool this summer was under
$30, that is not too bad com
pared to a $2,300 oil bill for last
year's swimming season.
The technical and architec
tural design of our project and
its physical environment ex
ceeds similar concepts that
have been developed recently
in the Northwest.
Again I wish to extend my
graditude to those of you who
had anything to do with our

past two years.
