Alcohol and the Family: A parent who has an alcoholic spouse has an especially difficult task because both the alcoholic parent’s actions and the non alcoholic parent’s reactions often form harmful behavior models for children. These are some ways to help children deal with alcoholism in the home. * Do not try to hide the pro blem. Children can cope best when you acknowledge that your spouse is an alcoholic. * Make sure your children understand that alcoholism is a disease, like cancer or diabetes, and they can hate the disease and still love the sick parent. * Educate yourself and your children on alcoholism . Understanding takes some of the fear out of the disease. * Join a group of spouses of alcoholics and help your children find a similar group for children of alcoholics. * Make sure your children do not feel responsible for the disease or for “ binges” . * Try to provide consistency and ritual for your family. Show the children there are some things they can depend on. “ Take time to hug your kids,” adds Hoobing. If you are in terested in the work of Oregon Together, contact Barb Peterson, Ron Bowman, Doug Rathbun or Rev. Stan Hoobing. Boardman chamber holds membership drive Membership in the Boardman Chamber of Commerce has more than doubled as a result of a re cent membership drive according to Chamber president Ed Glenn. Glenn attributes the growth to new industrial firms that have either located in the area recent ly or who plan to do so in the near ftiture. “ Competition between a couple of hard driving member ship teams brought those folks in to the fold,” Glenn said. The membership drive pitted teams headed by Port of Morrow manager Gary Neal against Dean Kegler of Kegler’s Sentry Super market. The prize, borrowed from cars salesmen, was a steak and beans luncheon before the en tire membership. Several new industrial plants have opened at the Port of Mor row recently, near the city of Boardman, and several more are planning construction this sum mer. Boardman Foods, for exam ple, plan to build an onion pro cessing plant this summer and F2M, Inc. a California contrac tor, is building the wing walls for Bonneville Dam at a Port of Mor row site. “ We welcome those two new companies along with some new members among the folks who have been around town a long time,” Glenn said, “ with a membership of over 100 now, the Boardman Chamber is poised to become a significant factor in the business community.” The chamber is planning an ambitious celebration of Board- man’s 75th Year in 1992 with it’s first ever Cinco de Mayo celebra tion on May 3, a two day In dependence celebration July 4 & 5 and a mountain man rendezvous at Pioneer Days, August 29 & 30. The first event of the year-long birthday party was a Founder’s Day Ball in March where a grow- ing collection o f historic photographs of the city of Board- man were displayed and the longest continuous resident, Mildred (Mrs. Willard) Baker was honored. Mrs. Baker has liv ed in Boardman since 1921. Other events in the series in clude a Town on Wheels and gum boot parade on July 25 and a much expanded Fishin' Derby, August 8 & 9. “ With all these events this year, we’ll be fran tically looking for hard-working volunteers among those new members,” Glenn predicted, and then added, “ there will never be a better time to visit Boardman than this year.” Money important marital issue Mini college “ There’s no one way to han “ We learn about money from dle money in your marriage. In our family, friends and ex June 15-18 fact, what you do will change with time. How you handle money is less important than how the financial practices make you feel about yourself and your mar riage,” says Alice Mills Mor row, Oregon State University (OSU) Extension family economics specialist. Money is an everyday part of marriage; financial practices and decisions should reflect the philosphy of your relationship and in fact, “ enhance the mar riage relationship,” the specialist adds. That means you need to understand the philosophy and nature of relationship and make sure you define the terms used. For instance, “ sharing” future income and expenses can mean several things. Sharing could mean that each person pays his or her share of expenses. Sharing could mean that people share income, with each person paying a share of ex pense proportionate to his or her share of their combined incomes. Sharing might mean that all or most of the income is put into a common fund from which all or most expenses are paid. Morrow notes that couples often use one of three money management methods. The “ The three pot system” sees each contributing to a household account for joint ex penses while maintaining separate accounts for individual expenses. There’s the “ two pot system” in which partners keep income separate and each controls his or her individual expenses. The final approach is the “ common pot" in which all in come is pooled and distributed ac cording to need. “ The couple that learns to talk about money and resolve their differences, rarely finds money interfering with the relationship.” points out Carol Bennett. Mor row County Extension agent. It’s normal for a couple to have different feelings about money, what it means and how it's handled. 7-8. periences,” Bennett notes. “ You Extension mini-coliege, with and your partner have learned dif an array of nearly 40 classes, ferent financial values, attitudes special activities and an assembly and practices that will become evident as you make daily money on “ Humor and Health” returns management decisions and per to the Oregon State University campus June 15-18, reports Carol form daily money management Bennett, OSU Extension agent in tasks.” Alice Mills Morrow, OSU Ex Morrow County.
