Plans are being made for the
annual district level “ Make It
Yourself With Wool Contest” to
be held Friday, November 11. in
lone. With fair time rapidly ap­
proaching, District 5 Director,
Maureen Krebs, reminds potent
tial contestants that one garment
may be used for both events if the
fabric is at least 60 percent wool.
District contests are held
around the state with winners in
the junior and senior categories
advancing to state level compe-
tion. The state contest is held in
conjunction with the Oregon
Sheep Grower’s Convention
scheduled for December 3 in
Hood River. A state junior and
senior winner then advance to the
national competition which will
be held in Washington, DC, in
February. Last year’s senior divi­
sion champion from District 5,
Jimi Kaye Alexander of Milton-
Freewater, advanced to the na­
tional contest where she placed
fifth.
Maureen Krebs directs District
5 which includes residents of
Gilliam, Morrow, Umatilla,
Wasco, Sherman, Hood River
and Wheeler counties. The con­
test is open to men and women
in four age groups Pre-teen (12
6 under), Junior (13-16), Senior
(17-24) and Adult (over 24).
Garments are initially judged
on the entrant with appropriate
accessories. Judges look for cur­
rent fashion, appropriateness of
fabric and style ot the entrant, fit,
poise and presentation. After
modeling, garments are judged
on inner contruction and
durability.
The deadline for entries is Oc­
tober 28. Entry information is
available by writing Maureen
Krebs, Cecil Star Route, lone,
OR 97843 or by calling (503)
422-7548.

Gabe Flores to attend youth congress
Gabe Flores, Irrigon, is help­
ing make 4-H history.
Flores will be part of the
Oregon delegation attending the
1994 National 4-H Youth Con­
gress in Orlando, Fla., in
December. This is the first time
the event has been held outside of
Chicago, its home for the last 72
years.
In additon to a change in loca­
tion, states are free to decide the
make-up of their delegations and,
for the first time, young people
who participate in Extension
youth programs outside the tradi­
tional 4-H club program are eligi­
ble to attend. Flores and Russ
Mathiasen of Corvallis both fit
this category.
Flores, a 1994 graduate of
Riverside High School, was
selected on the basis of personal
development and leadership. He
was a facilitator of the Hispanic
Youth Leadership Conference for
young people in Morrow and
Umatilla Counties. In school, he
was active in athletics anr| a
counselor for the Outdoor Educa­
tion program.
In the community, he is a
volunteer football and wrestling
coach, volunteers with Ducks
Unlimited and is active in the
multicultural club called “ Los
Amigos.”
His trip to 4-H Congress is
sponsored by the. Ford Motor
Company Fund and Friends of
4-H in Oregon.
