Chamber Manager So many things are happening, it’s “ bits and pieces” time again. As a matter of fact, until Cycle Oregon III comes and goes, many of those working on this major undertaking may feel their entire brain is in bits and pieces. Gilcrest referred to it as Psycho Oregon, but promised us that when it was all over and done, it would be well worth it. * Rumor has it that there is going to be an all out Heppner clean-up on August 11.. .just in time to get everything spiffed up for our Mor row County Fair, “ Blue Jeans & Country Scenes. ” Mark your calen dars, so one and all can pitch in. We want those 2,000 cyclists, as well as fairgoers to be impressed by our community pride. * Special thanks to Chamber member Kate’s Pizza for use of a VCR whenever a video is on the noon Chamber agenda and for her staffs assistance in serving the Cy cle Oregon delegation a sample din ner when they passed through Hepp ner. Sometimes we forget to give recognition to our members for their many volunteer efforts. Believe me, Heppner would not be the same without volunteers. * Morrow Countv Tourism Com mittee is working hard planning the Oregon State Fair Booth. Donations are being accepted by the commit tee % Tourism C om m ittee Treasurer, Fred Lundin, P.O. Box 397.
