Chamber
Chatter
By Claudia Hughes, Chamber Manager
Do the 18 ballot measures
tend to overwhelm you as well
as all of the mixed messages
that go along with them?
Heppner Chamber is here to
help. The next two consecutive
chamber meetings have been
set aside to review and discuss
the measures. Each measure
will be presented followed by
pros, cons, and discussion from
the floor. It is imperative that
we be aware of the conse
quences of a number of these
measures and be knowledge
able before we cast our ballots.
The November 1994 ballot
measures
include
two
legislative referrals and 16 in
itiatives. Interested persons are
invited to join us at noon at the
Elks on Tuesday, Oct. 11 and
Tuesday, Oct. 18.
Morrow County's Heritage
Celebration this past weekend
gave us a glimpse of some of
the many offerings we have in
this area for visitors. The native
Americans from the Columbia
River area had much to share
and gave those present great
insight into what is most
valuable in life. They gave us
a glimpse into the past as an
elder spoke in the native
tongue while an interpreter
shared her knowledge. Mary
Keith of the Forest Service and
the Morrow County Museum
are to be commended for an in
teresting event. Joe Yocom,
Cork Norene and Mary did an
excellent job conducting the
historic tour in the Schooner
Wagon. Maybe this can become
an annual event.
John Edmundson and Jim
Wishart gave the annual coat of
varathane to the Heppner
welcome signs before the en
tourage of hunters arrived.

if a man happens to find
