And now for the other side-
Ashley Core, 14 of Portland,
stayed with Chuck and Sherry
Matteson of Heppner and their
children, Justin, Lexi, Ryan and
Lacey. " I liked meeting new
people," says Ashley, who
isn't sure she likes small town
life. " 'It gets a little boring,"
says Ashley, "but they've been
keeping me busy. Here you
know everybody. I don't even
know everybody that goes to
my school. I don't even know
everybody in my grade."
Nikki Hansen, 14, who lives
between
Gresham
and
Portland, stayed with Tim and
Kathy Rankin and daughters,
Tracy, Bobbi and Jennifer,
south of Hardman. " I liked it
when we went to the wheat
place," said Nikki. " I liked
riding in the cattle truck and
playing with the tractors. I
. don't like getting up early,
though. Here I have to get up
at 5:10. At home I get up at
6:30.
Matt Teyema, 14, Gresham,
stayed with Curtis and Kathy
Cutsforth and children, Stanley
and Melissa. " I really like their
mother's cooking," said Matt.
"It's neat that everyone in the
comm unity knows each
other," adds Matt, "Everyone
is friends, real close."
Miranda Poppino, 13, Gres
ham, stayed with David and
April Sykes and children,
Chris, Andy and Camille.
"Heppner is a lot smaller and
quieter than Portland," says
Miranda. "People here are nice

from page one
and the people in Portland are
kind of rude. I liked the hot
springs. "I'm a little home
sick," says Miranda, adding,
"Maybe we'll come back to
visit."
Rachel Lieber, 13, stayed
with Debbie and Rollie Mar
shall and daughters, Kristin
and Brandi. " I like the peace
best," says Rachel. "There is
no violence and you can do
whatever you want. At home
you can't go far, because your
parents are afraid you're going
to get mugged. I feel really
lucky to get to do this, because
not very many people in our
class get to ."
Ryan Carpenter, 14, Gresh
am, stayed with Alan and Deb
bie Scott and sons, Craig and
Keith. "I liked hiking up to the
top of the mountain and seeing
the cross," says Ryan. "M eet
ing a lot of new people is real
ly fun. I don't really miss
anything, because I was really
looking forward to th is."
Kim Korsak, 13, Gresham,
stayed with Gary and Marsha
Kemp and daughters, Tina and
Toni. "M y favorite thing is go
ing to the high school and
meeting all the kids," says
Kim. "But I would rather go to
classes at the high school, than
go on more field trips. It's kind
of boring." "Here you drive
down the road and everone's
waving at everbody else and
everybody knows everybody.
Like I don't even know some
of the people who came up
from Centennial. It's nice, they
don't have locks on the lockers.
Things get stolen all the time at
our school. I'm coming back for
sure."

“Bank of Eastern Oregon was will
ing to step in and help us finance the
purchase of lone Market, and with
terms that we could live with.
Even though other banks pay lip
service to being big in small busi

Oregon came through when we
needed it. And eVen though they
were the only ones willing to loan
us the money to buy the market,
they didn’t take advantage of us.
No out of town bank even comes

like Bank of Eastern Oregon does.
No one.”
