J. Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon Wednesday, November 18, 1992 - THREE Chamber Chatter Sixth graders learn about companies By Claudia Hughes. Chamber Manager Sometimes change cannot be avoided, so we all just have to look together in the same direc tion and attempt to re-program long ingrained habits. This will be the challenge for Heppner Chamber members beginning in December as they move to Wednesday for the weekly meetings. The change was re quested by the Elks, as they will be closed Tuesdays and open to members and guests for lunch Wed. through Friday. The back room will be renovated for organization meetings, which is where the chamber will be meeting. Start programming now, Decem ber-Cham ber- Wednesday, December-Cham ber-Wednesday. Eastern Oregon grows on you. Living proof is Gary Marks, alias Clark Kent, who presented some very innovative ideas for eastern Oregon’s future during last Tues day’s Chamber program. Like many of us, he feels the small business person, the rancher, rural Oregon is not being heard. His idea is one senator per coun ty. Think about it, mull it over, visit with Gary; this idea could become a reality. It’s time to de fend the part of our state "that is home to a special kind of people- hard working, fiercely indepen dent, proud of their history and heritage, tough minded, but com passionate and caring toward their neighbors.” Hear more about this at the annual Town and Country M eeting-Eastern Oregon: The Backbone of the State, Wednesday, January 13, 1993. Thought for the week: “ Have you noticed...you can’t throw mud without getting a little on yourself." Anonymous.
