FOUR - Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon Wednesday, August 8, 1990 PUBLIC NUTICE Heppner plans for influx of 1,700 during Cycle III PUBLIC NOTICE Ten groups in Gilchrist earned over $900 each by the time the bicycle tour passed through town, he said. Gilchrist is a town around half the size of Heppner. Gil Ernst "Expect the worst" and “treat the people like you would like to be treated.” was the advice given to over 50 in attendance at the Cycle III organizational meeting held Aug. 4 in Heppner. Gil Ernst, local coordinator for the event when the cyclists passed through his town, Gilchrist, during Cycle II last year, stressed the huge quantities of food required to feed those on the bicycling tour. The last count for those signed up to take this year’s tour, which passes through Heppner on Sept. 9 is 1,700. The ci ty of Heppner has a population of 1,510. Ernst said that the stores and restaurants in Gilchrist sold out of food, and one group selling baked goods sold over 400 pies and cakes. Despite the huge influx of people and confusion, however, Ernst has nothing but nice things to say about the 1,800 bicyclists who travled through his town last year. “These people are great. They can entertain themselves,” he said. “If you treat them like your own, they’ll come back.” Volunteers and members of ser vice organizations, including Hepp ner Chamber of Commerce manager Claudia Hughes and Mayor Cara Costa are in the process of planning for Cycle III. Planning committees include: welcome booth, bike security, home stay, shuttle buses, entertainment in formation booths, beer gardens, events and activities, food-which in cludes dinner and breakfast for 1,700 and downtown booths. The majority of the cyclists will stay at the Elementary school grounds and the fairgrounds. Dinner will be serv ed at the school and breakfast at the city park. The Gazette-Times is planning a tab-size publication to welcome the cyclists and as a souvenir of Cycle III. The deadline for news and advertisements for the tab is August 24. “Make a positive impression on these visitors to Morrow County.” Harriet Pierson offers Alberta Johannes cookies and punch.
