SIX- Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon Wednesday, May 18, 1994 City experience beneficial to teens ships. Several HJH students have already invited their Centennial classmates to come to Heppner and some have made plans to visit their hosts again in Portland. Tarnasky named to OSU dean’s list Alecia Tarnasky, Heppner, has qualified for the dean’s list winter term at Oregon State University. To qualify for the dean’s list a student must carry at least 12 graded hours and maintain a grade point average of 3.5 to 4. McElligott chosen girls state delegate L-R: Zeb Johnson, Katie Nichols, Jessica Van Winkle and Travis Wilhelm. The dew may be off the Rose City, but some Heppner eighth- graders are still dewey-eyed about their recent experience in Portland as a part of the Hepp ner Centennial annual exchange program. In the exchange, now in its 14th year, Heppner eighth-graders at tend school at Centennial Middle School in the Portland area and stay w ith families of Centennial students. In return Centennial eighth-graders attend school at Heppner Junior High and stay with Heppner/Lexington area families during that week. Most of the HJH kids report a wonderful time, especially during their trip to downtown Portland. Trav is Wilhelm. 14, Heppner, stayed with Jim and Arlene Bix- el of Gresham and their children, Katie, a Centennial 8th-grader, and Leslie, 12. Jim manufactures boat engines for large ships and Arlene is a homemaker. Like other Heppner students, Travis said that his host family ate out a lot more than we do in Hepp ner. For some reason, the Portland kids nicknamed Travis ‘‘Luigi” . While he was in Portland Travis played miniature golf, went to the motorcycle races and, along with other Heppner students, rode on a stemwheeler and the MAX transit system, toured Horseshoe and Bridal Veil Falls, OMSI, a tree nursery, Nike Town, a Trail Blazer food pro ducts business and Clackamas Mall, where they went ice skating. The Bixels’ dog had 10 puppies during Travis’ stay, but unfortunately, only four surviv ed. Travis is the son of Joe and Marina Wilhelm, Heppner. Katie Nichols. 14, stayed with Leslie and Dave Stadler and their children. Amber, 8th grade, Cody, 6th grade, and Katie, kindergarten. Leslie works at K- Mart and Dave is a construction worker. Katie’s trip to the zoo was marred by the death of an animal. A blind deer or antelope became confused, began running in circles and eventually drown ed in a pool at the zoo. The un fortunate incident made the even ing news. Katie said that she especially liked the trip to downtown Portland and to Nike Town. At Nike Town, she said there were shoes floating in water and tennis balls under a glass floor. Katie is the daughter of M att and D arlene C lark, Heppner. Jessica VanWinkle, 13. stayed with Liz and Jerry Thiringer and their children, Cara, an 8th grader, and Tess, nine, Portland. Jessica said she liked the trip to OMSI, especially a 3-D Grand Canyon display. She says that school work is easier at Centen nial (which is exactly what the Centennial kids said about school at Heppner). Classes at Centen nial start much later, at 9:45 Monday. Tuesday, Thursday and Friday and at 10:45 Wednesdays. Jessica said that one time she went to the wrong class in school and ended up sitting through the class twice. “ It was embarrass ing,” she said. Jessica is the daughter of Jim and Georgia VanWinkle, Heppner. Zeb Johnson, 15, stayed with Bill and Luana Lambert and their children, Jim, 8th grade, and Jen nifer, sixth grade. Bill is a com puter repairman and Luana is in retail sales. Zeb said that visiting the mall was the most fun and he brought home some new shoes and a hat. Zeb’s host family took him on a boat ride up and down the Willamette River, which, says Zeb. was “ really boring” . Zeb is the son of Dick Johnson, Echo. The Heppner kids had a little fun with their supposedly more sophisticated city counterparts. “ I told them that we rode horses to school,” said Katie. “ And they believed us.” The Heppner kids ■said that the Centennial kids at first called them snobs and hicks. “ They asked me, ‘Are you the hick?’,” said Zeb. Still, it didn’t seem to bother the HJH eighth graders much. There was a bigger variety of cliques at Centennial, the “ prep pies” , the “ skaters” (skate boarders), the “ druggies” and the “ normal” kids. “ They had some weird kids,” said Jessica. “ They even had a ‘vampire’.” The “ vampire” dressed up in black clothes and wore white makeup. Still, says Travis, the kids on the whole were pretty nice. “ I thought they would be rude,” he said. “ But they were nice.” “ It was a pretty good school,” added Jessica. The school lunch menu was about as varied as the student groups, with several different sections from which to choose- pizza, sandwiches, oriental food and salads.The kids report that the food, however, “ was about as good as it is here.” Whatever that means. Not too many of the Centennial kids were out for sports, because they have to pay to participate and have competitive tryouts for the school teams. “ I can’t believe how easy their PE classes were,” said Katie. She said that the students sign up for different PE subjects for one or two weeks at a time on rotating basis. Although Centennial Middle School has around 855 students, the Heppner students said that it didn’t seem that big, because of the layout of the school. Some of the Centennial families lived close enough for the students to walk and others rode the bus. When the Heppner kids return ed home, after a week that went by too fast, they brought with them m em ories, a greater understanding of people and what may turn into lifelong friend P loyhar I nsurance We write Medicare Supplements Give us a call.
