Hermiston Ave., Hermiston oeeoeeeeooooeeoeooeooooooa By Shelby Krebs Everyone is noticing the freshly painted flower boxes, overflowing with flowers lining main street in lone, or they may have sat in one of the new park benches. The North Lex Livestock 4-H Club members showed their community pride by assembling these park benches and repairing, planting, and painting the flower boxes. Two days were spent completing this project. The club began by hammering in loose nails and giving the flower boxes a facelift with redwood paint. The 4-Her’s met again to fill the boxes with junipers and flowers that are now in full bloom. Master Gardener Birdine Tullis and Laurel Cannon provided their expertise to the novice 4-H members and lone Market provided refreshments for the hard-working crew. The North Lex Livestock Club was one of 10 in Oregon to receive the 1997 "Growing with Community Service Gardening Project", made possible by Chevron USA and the 4-H Foundation. The project was selected for its demonstration of community service and need, f e a s ib ility , c re a tiv ity , involvement of 4-H members and the completeness of the grant application. The North Lex Livestock Club members’ gardening efforts provided an opportunity to "learn by doing."
