    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
