Chamber Chatter By Claudia Hughes, Chamber Manager Springtime...well almost. It just depends what hour you look out the window. It is however, the time of new beginnings, birth and renewal. The following story was recent ly brought to my attention and seemed appropriate to share as we began many new communi ty projects. "Let George Do It". Then there are those who never become involved in the needs and problems of their com munity. This attitude reminds me of the shipwrecked men in a leaking lifeboat. From the bow of the lifeboat, the men watched as those at the stem bailed furiously. One at the bow said, "Thank goodness, the hole is not in our end of the lifeboat!" Let's keep this story in mind as we offer support and some volunteer time to bring success to Heppner.'s many projects. Next week at Chamber come prepared to ask Rep. Lynn Lundquist and Senator Greg Walden questions as we par ticipate in the monthly chamber conference call with Salem. Thought for the week: Have a happy Easter and prepare for new beginnings. from 1 p.m. to 7 p.m. Tuj?* 5 Course Dinner $ 19 ” One Your choice of RJ’s Homestyle BBQ Spareribs RJ’s popular Char Broiled Prime Rib Steak Sandwich or RJ's own Hand Breaded, deep fried or sauteed Tiger Prawns Mardeen Patton was named branch supervisor of the lone Branch of the Bank of Eastern Oregon effective January 1, 1995.
