Following is the feature article on the 1993 WOSC graduate. By LuJean Smith When Sean Warren graduated from high school in 1989 and prepared to go to college, he was one of the few 18 year-olds on the planet who took his parents’ ad vice. Their words of wisdom? “ they said Western was a great school,” confesses Sean. “ I never applied anywhere else.” Gary (‘71) and Susan (‘72) Warren passed memories of their alma mater to Sean, their oldest of three children. Now Sean has four years’ worth of memories of his own to share-including the ap prehension of his first few'weeks on campus. “ It seemed huge,” said Sean, comparing the virtual metropolis of Monmouth/Independence to his hometown of lone, Ore., population 275. “ I didn’t know if I’d be able to adapt with so many people here.” But Sean overcame his fears with amazing ease, and now, four years later, has become one of the college’s most influential student leaders. Co-recipient of the 1993 WOSC Student Leadership award and the Delmer Dewey Award (presented to the most outstan ding male students of the year), he also served as the 1992-93 HOST FAMILIES NEEDED!

After they finish, they will meet in dividually at the home of their leader Monica Swanson, to work on fair projects. The club had a float in the 4th of July parade in lone. The float was “ sew cute” . Chamber Chatter By Claudia Hughes, Chamber Manager “ Wagons Ho” to Morrow County is our Morrow County Fair theme this year. Summer seems to be arriving as slow as the wagon trains and before we know it our fair will be here. While it is unfortunate that the visit of the Sesquicentennial Wagon Train in Morrow Coun ty is the same week as our fair, maybe we can take that oppor tunity to offer transportation to some of the participants during “ slack time at Cecil” and bring them to Heppner. It promises to be an exciting and busy week for one and all. Those of us who at tended the “ Voices From The Trail” performance in Pendleton this past Saturday took a step back in time and felt very for tunate to experience the event. It certainly helped to “ catch the pioneer spirit” which we en courage everyone to do as they plan booths and parade entries. Next week chamber members are ‘’brownbagging’ lunch and will be meeting at the Kinzua Of fice where they will be given a tour of the facility. Those par ticipating should be there by noon. The tour will last approx imately one hour. Chamber welcomes Peterson’s Jewelers as a member. We're proud to say that they have been in business over 60 years in Heppner and exemplify customer satisfaction and service. The Cycle Oregon committee is looking for eager volunteers who would be willing to serve brown bag lunches, check bicycles, bus drinks and offer on-the-spot hospitality during their lunch stop in Heppner. If an organization or individual would like to do this September 14 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. please stop by the Chamber office to sign up or give me a call.
