Why do teenagers rebel? Is it
due to hormones, a pnmal desire
to stake out their own domain or
Chamber Chatter
By Claudia Hughe«, Chamber Manager
Time and again we team that
the real secret to success in all
areas of our lives is simply
com m unication,
honest
communication, and eye to eye
communication.
The same principle applies to
the Main Street Project, which is
why every Monday at 11 a.m.,
the Chamber invites all interested
persons to Yaws to communicate
with A1 Frye, project manager
and ODOT.
The Chamber
appreciates the willingness of
people to settle differences as
they occur. It can mean more
rapid progress of our Main Street
renovation. Pats on the back go
to the city, Weaver Construction,
the businesses, ODOT, the
contractors and subcontractors
for working to keep the lines of
communication open and moving
forward with crucial decisions.
Bill Kuhn's office has been
helpful in putting out a weekly
Chamber Main Street bulletin
after each meeting.
The recently-organized Chamber
Hard Hat Ambassadors take to
the streets handing out the
bulletins along with a chocolate
kiss. They are easy to recognize
in their orange hard hats on loan
from Columbia Basin. Any other
"hard hat enthusiasts" are
welcome to join the fun. Events
in the future are planned to keep
spirits high.
For all the patient folks waiting
in line for flaggers, they send this
message: "IF YOU WILL
PLEASE SIGNAL, THEY CAN
MOVE YOU FORWARD AT A
MORE RAPID PACE". (Could
that mean that those of us driving
Morrow County roads forget to
signal?)
Next week the Morrow County
Fair & Rodeo Court will be
guests at the Chamber luncheon.
"Boots, Jeans, and Cowboy
Dreams", our 1997 Morrow
County Fair and Rodeo is not far
away. New ideas for the parade,
participants, and route will be
cheerfully accepted at this office.
Thought for the week: "The
shortest distance between two
points is currently under
construction."

a natural and predictable process
o f growth? To what extent do
parents encourage or discourage
the storm and stress of
adolescence?
"Reaching the Heart of Your
Teen", an eight-week video
series, looks at the many factors
that make living with a teenager
"a blessing or a cursing". "It
offers
hope
to
families
challenged by the pressure of
living with an adolescent, and
offers practical steps to rebuild
and maintain family harmony
and love that will last a lifetime,"
said a Christian Life Center news
release.
The video series, produced by
Gary and Anne Mane Ezzo, will
be shown at the Chnstian Life
Center on Wednesday evenings
at 7 p.m. beginning July 3.
Children ages 10 and older are
invited to attend with their
parents.
The fee for the course is $15
per family which covers the cost
of a workbook. To register, call
the church at 676-5581.
