Even though many were of a much larger population, their challenges were much the same as ours. For this col umn, I share the following class handout: "It takes two, your Cham ber of Commerce and You" Working together can never be a policy. It can only be an idea. It can never be a code of rules. It can only be a way of looking at the world. We can say, "th is is m ine" and be good, or we can add, "this is 'o u r' and become bet ters. We can think, "I do my share" and be satisfied, or we can ask "can I do more?" and become prosperous. We can work alongside each other and function, or we can work with each other and grow. As we have. O u r c o u n try 's h is to ry makes it clear that combining all efforts into one has been the only way to achieve that progress and that strength we take such pride in, pride not only in what w e've achieved but pride in knowing that w e've achieved it together, with our ow n work and our own visions. That's really the key. Because when all is said and d o n e , w o rk in g to g e th e r d o esn 't only bring out the best in all of us, it brings out the best in each of us. It takes two, your chamber of com merce and you. Next week: business and board. Rachel Norton and Brian Roth s i» » Fresh Corn Fresh Oregon Grown whole or cutup 7 - .; *••**■ . : • By CUudu Hugh«.
