Council agrees to pool busing plan
The Heppner City Council ap
proved a three-fold request from
the Heppner Pool Committee at
the council’s regular meeting
Monday night.
The council approved: a re
quest to ask the Willow Creek
Park District to undertake the
pool project; a request to allow
city administrator Gary Marks to
assist the park district in the pro
ject; and a request to allow the ci
ty to participate in busing children
to the lone pool for swimming
lessons and carry funds forward,
if necessary. Arrangements with
the lone pool and the Morrow
County School District have not
yet been made.
The Heppner pool will not
open this summer because of a
budget shortfall and structural
problems with the pool. Council
members expressed concern over
public safety if children are
allowed to swim at the Heppner
pool. The pool advisory commit
tee estimated that a plan to bus
Heppner children to lone would
cost around $2,240. The pro
jected costs would be less than
half the estimated costs of open
ing the Heppner pool for two
weeks this summer for swimm-
ing lessons only.
City administrator Gary Marks
said that projected costs for open
ing the Heppner pool for a two-
week session would be around
$4,948. That plan includes $730
for lifeguards and instructors,
$2,827 for maintenance and
labor, $500 for supplies and $890
for utilities. Marks projects
around $600 in receipts, with the
remainder coming from proper
ty taxes. Since the city has only
$3.(XX) remaining in the 1991-92
budget in pool appropriations,
this proposal would create a
deficit of $1,945, and the safety
concerns would still remain.
Estimated costs for the busing
program would include $780 for
use of Morrow County School
buses and bus drivers’ wages,
$730 for lifeguards and instruc
tors and $730 for supervisors for
the children w hile they are not in
the pool.
The council at first sought to
form its ow n district to fund con
struction of the pool. But. accor
ding to state regulations, the city
will not be able to form its own
district because the Willow Creek
Park District is already in
existence.
Summer program for kids planned
The Neighborhood Center will
receive a $3,000 grant from the
Children’s and Youth Services
Commission to fund a four-week
summer program for children in
Heppner.
Grace Drake coordinator of the
project, says that the program
will consist of on-site activities
and field trips to Boardman. Ir-
rigon. Monument. Hermiston and
places within Heppner. She said
the program may help fill the void
created by the loss of the Hepp
ner pool.
The program will be held July
6 through 31, five days a week,
four hours a day, including lunch.
Drake says the program is
targeted for low income children
six through 14, but children will
not be turned away because their
families are not low income. The
program is planned for around 30
children, she says.
Drake says that each day em
phasis will be put on one of five
different themes: relationship of
towns in the area; daily skills of
living together; history, centering
on the Oregon Trail (this may in

The hottest topics on television
talk-shows these days often deals
with “ dysfunctional” families.
Psychologists, counselors and
best-selling authors provide us
with fascinating insights into how
unhealthy family patterns can af
fect us for a lifetime.
Being part of the best family in
the world is something we all
dream of, but few experience.
Members of the Christian Life
Center at 535 W. Morgan St. will
be working together for seven
weeks on a unique 50-day study
called “ The Family God Wants
Us to Be: Your Prescription for
Healthier Church Relationships.”
This special study focuses on the
family of God-the church-and is
designed to enable participants to
dramatically improve the quality
of their family relationships in on
ly 50 days.
Led by Pastor Tim Van
Cleave, “ The Family God Wants
Us to Be” is a 50-day “ spiritual
adventure” created by The
Chapel of the Air Ministries, and
is used every year by hundreds of
churches all across North
A m erica. The program is
scheduled to begin on Sunday,
March 22 and continue through
Sunday, May 10.
During this time the Christian
Life Center w ill focus on a com
mon theme for the entire 50 days,
including eight Sundays. In
dividuals within the church will
further the adventure's impact on
their lives by completing addi
tional readings and weekly
assignments. Sunday sermons
will center around common
dysfunctional
family
characteristics and what happens
when those same qualities carry
over into the church. Pastor Tim
Van Cleave will be giving
positive suggestions on how to
build healthier relationships
within the church and within
nuclear families.
Adventure participants will
receive a personal adventure jour
nal, which contains scripture
readings, weekly assignments and
a place to record their insights
and spiritual progress. As
members of the congregation
work to build healthier relation
ships they will learn how to:
“ Listen Intently to the Great
Physician.” Through short dai
ly scripture readings they’ll learn
what the Bible says abut a healthy
church family.

Confucius reported roses being
raised in China. In the late 1700’s
everbloom ing roses were
reported to have been sent to the
Empress Josephine through the
blockade at the time of the French
revolution. The rose gallica of
Europe was crossed with the
China rose to produce the Bour
bon, the Portland, the hybrid
perpetual and finally the hybrid
tea rose. “ Rugosas” is one term
used to denote old fashioned roses
and these are often used as root
stock for grafting the hybrid tea
roses that are so popular with
gardeners today. Some sources
for acquiring old fashioned roses
include the Antique Rose Em
porium of Brenham, TX., David
Austin Nursery in England and
Wayside Gardens.
