The llepprier Ga.ette-Tlme, Hrppner, Oregon, Thuriday, July 28, 1983 THREE
Around About
By Justine Weatlwrford
Morrow County experienced a second electrifying week
end. Residents and visitors were entertained and somewhat
frightened by the pyrotechnic displays of the recent Friday
through Sundays, in some ports of the county real damage
was done by the heavy downpours and by the hall that came
along with the thunder and lightning. A Butter Creek friend
told mo that last Saturday during the day that area
experienced lightning, thunder, heavy rain, hail and
sunshine simultaneously. The weather system surely isn't
helping grain and hay farmers.
July 23, was an auspicious day in Heppner. The dedication
to the presently very controversial dam here brought quite a
few visitors to town. The Army engineers, contractors'
representatives and Senator Hatfield seemed proud of the
accomplished fact. Mayor Green and Judge McElligott were
good hosts. In reading over the history of Heppner this
spring, 1 was really Impressed with the constant efforts
through the last 80 years which were carried on by
community leaders and civic groups on behalf of this dam.
It seems to me that only when the project was finally
authorized and work was about to begin did we hear the
swelling of opposition. Now that this project to protect the
city has materialized Into such a huge, high wall, I can
sympathize with those folks who are crying about losing their
pleasing vista up Willow Creek. It is impossible to see any bit
of the dam from my home. The big change I personally note
Is the diminishing traffic along South Court St. However,
along with those who lost family members in Heppner's great
flood, I do feel more assured that the town won't be so
completely devastated again. And as Senator Hatfield
stated. "If several very precious human lives are saved, the
project Is worthwhile."
Last Sunday folks from the Klnzua and Condon country
clubs joined the Willow Creek Club members here for a good
time golfing, socializing and eating. More than 55 participa
ted. By now you have learned that more teachers than have left
our schools in recent years are leaving this year. I have not
become really acquainted with all those who are departing,
but feel that they have contributed much to our area. In time
they will be replaced by others who will bring new and
differing talents into the county. I truly enjoyed reading the
first installment of counselor Michele Portmann's review of
the European visit which she and Spanish teacher Valery
Volesky took with seven students and extension office
secretary Claudia Hughes.
I do not think Jane Rawlins' retirement means that she will
leave the county. It is hard for me to Imagine Heppner High
School without Jane there teaching English, encouraging the
appreciation and knowledge of drama and working with the
National Honor Society.
Because she Is such a talented woman and so generous and
helpful. I feel certain that every county organization will
hope to have her affiliation. Her leadership through her
lifetime here (She is a native daughter.) has been
tremendous. Jane has worked with several churches, with
4 H programs, with the lone and Heppner garden clubs, with
the County Fair for many years and has supported and aided
many good causes and carried out many helpful and
generous personal projects. She has been a fine student, a
dedicated teacher and a tremendous citizen. She can't ever
retire from her lifetime of good habits.
Some of his fans may not have heard that the Rawlins
youngest son, Charlie, had a rather disappointing time
participating in his first P G A. tournament, the National
Public Links Championship, at Coltsneck, New Jersey. He
just missed going into match play by one stroke. He decided
not to get to Tacoma, Wash, for the National Left Handera
Tournament. The recent New Jersey experience was a real
golfing growth achievement. Just qualifying for national
play was exciting and satisfying.
Several other outstanding athletes are bringing fame to
Heppner. In rodeo arenas, Ron Currln, Jr.'s two Professional
Rodeo Cowboys Assoc. all around titles are super. One of his
younger brothers, Mike, has just distinguished himself
participating In the National High School Rodeo in Douglas,
Wyoming, where he rated third nationally In steer wrestling
and seventh In all-around performance. Tara Mahoney
gained third place nationally in pole bending and Marty Britt
also made it into the finals of the national event. How great
for the H U.S. rodeo club. How great, too, is the record of 13
wins and Just two losses which brought the county's Babe
Ruth League Team the championship of the Columbia
Trl-County League. Just now two county girls, Sherl Piper
and Kim Wright, are off seeing Japan while some Japanese
youth are visiting here in the Labo Exchange Program. What
wonderful experiences these travelers will have.
How good it was to read In last week's paper about the
Pioneer Memorial Hospital Auxiliary giving a picnic for the
nursing home residents; to note that the Neighborhood
Center's P.A.T.C.H. group is holding a rummage and bake
sale to help provide emergency medication and other
assistance for folks in need, and that the Lexington Garden
Bugs re busy building a city park. Such fine things are being
done by volunteers ... not government agencies.
Groups of County Fair supporters have been meeting and
working out plans for changes and Improvements at the fair.
It is important to have folks keep checking the schedule
printed In the 1983 premium book. Many events are set to
happen before the fair opens In less than a month now, on
Monday, August 22.
This Saturday, "Heppner Daze," the summer sidewalk and
street sale, promises to be bigger and better than ever.
Everyone should have fun, get some great bargains and
bring joy to the south County merchants, craft persons and
organizations who have things to sell. So plan to attend this
all-day sale and Saturday Market on July 30.
