presented farmer Stan Timmer-
mann with an appreciation award.
Timmermann, vice-chairman of
U.S. Wheat Associates, is a past
chairman of the wheat commis
sion, a past president of the
OWGL, and a past winner of the
state conservation award.
The Portland Chamber of
Commerce “ Voice of the In
dustry” award went to Mike For
rester, editor of the Capital Press,
a regional farm weekly. For
rester’s family owns several Nor
thwest newspapers. The award
was presented by Kay Shilder of
the Agri-Business Council.
The People’s Choice award in
the OWGL art show went to Lin
da Bisnett, Pendleton, for her
wheat arrangements. The award
was announced by Holly
Weimar, chair of the OWGL
Public Relations and Education
Committee.
Mike Thome, director of the
Port of Portland and a Pendleton
wheat farmer, was master of
ceremonies for the banquet. He
said grain trade created the Port
of Portland and today accounts
for 63 percent of the port’s
tonnage.
Thome called the port ” A
world-class gateway to world
markets.” He said the port has
had a profitable, growing year.
Thome expects more growth as
the port “ becomes a transporta
tion center for inter-modalism.”
A deeper channel is needed in
the Columbia River as bigger
cargo ships are built, Thome
said.
“ The Port of Portland is the
fastest-growing air and marine
facility in the West,” Thome
said.
ing in medicine and health
services.
“ The booklet grew out of
NEOAHEC’s board of directors
being very committed to “ grow
ing our own” health care people
in the region,” said Sandy
Ryman, NEOAHEC executive
director. “ Basically, what we’ve
learned is that people who prac
tice health care in rural areas are
from rural areas,” said Ryman.
“ The ones who will most likely
be satisfied working in this en
vironment are the ones who come
from rural areas.”
NEOAHEC, a private, non
profit organization, was formed
in 1991 to attract and retain health
professionals in northeast
Oregon. NEOAHEC works in
partnership with Oregn Health
Sciences University to develop
education and training oppor
tunities for students in medicine
and other health professions
through residencies and continu
ing education programs in Mor
row, Baker, Gilliam, Grant,
M alheur, U m atilla, Union,
Wallowa and Wheeler counties.
The AHEC program, which will
eventually cover each region of
the state, has been a university
priority since Dr. Peter Kohler
became OHSU’s president in
1988.
The booklet combines informa
tion that was previously available
only from several different
sources. It was prepared by
Oregon Career Information
System at the University of
Oregon.
Sponsors of the project include
Blue Mountain Community Col
lege, Eastern Oregon State Col
lege, Treasure Valley Commun-
tiy College and Oregon Health
Sciences University.
Copies of the booklet are
available from NEOAHEC at $3
apiece, plus $1.50 per copy for
postage and handling. Reference
copies will also be available at
local libraries. For information,
