how they looked inside, their taste
and smell.

how to shop economically and
bought ingredients to make pizza.
The first year members made piz
za. Bridget McElligott, junior
leader, helped them.
The second year members each

they had made.

Away from the big city charged a yellow steed branded with black let
ters. Aboard were dudes ready to pull leather as they stampeded for the
wide open spaces. But loosely tied-up white Nikes had already been roped
into a commitment to gallop into unknown territory.
City clickers all, 20 Centennial Middle School eigth graders braved a
week-long western experience in primitive Morrow County. For the 11th
year this annual spring pilgrimage brought Gresham students to Heppner
to experience “ a little bit of country" lifestyle.
And while local seventh graders and families played host to these city
dwellers, Heppner’s small eighth grade class gave up their run-over boots
and stomped-on hats as they dusted off their city togs. Metro bound, they
grabbed their sunglasses so they wouldn’t be blinded by flashing neon lights
while living it up in a big city.
After daily exposure to learning in small town classrooms in a school
house old enough to vote, visitors hopped aboard that yellow steed for late
afternoon tours. They bumped along the county cow trails. And only a minor
delay occurred when their charger spooked and tangled with a bridge at
Anson Wright Park.
For these adventurous Centennial students, country ways included a hands-
on experience with baby calves and a shaggy pony at the Rietmann and
Anderson ranches. While city youngsters aren’t familiar with hop-scotching
around cow patties, they were wise enough to know which end of a critter
to pet. And they did leam that it takes some year-around cow-punching
and many pairs of very aromatic cowboy boots to produce that favorite ham
burger at a neighborhood Golden Arches.
Helping to settle eastern Oregon dust, John Boyer’s crop dusting plane
christened students with a spring sprinkle. And compared to the price of
a city limousine, Lyle Peck’s display of combines and farm equipment made
the cost of that Cadillac seem like peanuts.
However, the logic of staying in the wheat farming business must have
appeared foolheardy after George Koffler’s presentation of today’s farm
operating costs and wheat prices compared to that of 1940. But students
did leam that the big dough ingredient is in the field item and not in a fac
tory product.
As visiting students viewed local wildlife not restrained in a zoo, they
were aware that a creature called a spotted owl was hooting around in selec
tive forest areas. And while being dusted with snow flakes at Tupper, blue
bird houses were hung to give colorful wingsters some unnatural habitat.
But these urbanites understood the Forest Service’s emphasis on preserv
ing the environment and catering to recreation.
As saws whined and boards thumped along assembly lines, a tour of Kin-
zua Mill Corporation gave them a down-to-earth perspective of how lumber
is produced for homes, furniture and other wooden products.
At Kinzua’s co-generation plant, there was visable proof of how waste
products are used to light up everyone’s lifestyle through Portland General
Electric; and how the steam that wafted into the air at this plant is harness
ed to preheat water in boilers as well as to kiln-dry green lumber.
Opal Cook and Ivan McDaniel might have sounded like they were tell
ing tall tales when they talked about Hardman’s historic past and its claim-
to-fame as a near-ghost town. However memorabilia there and at Hepp
ner’s museum provided visual evidence of when Morrow County was tru
ly the wild west.
Visiting students became aware that ranch homes are now endowed with
electricity, television and microwaves even though some rural students fuel
up very early for a long journey to school.
Just as jaded local students came home excited about their city experiences,
urban students also took home tales of their exposure to the ways of their
counterparts.
Visiting Centennial teacher, Dave Olcott said it best--“ It’s a short-term
investment in time for a long-term investment in life,” when it comes to
exchanging places and seeing how the other half lives. Oregonians in general
would be more unified in their goals if more people could temporarily change
places.
