Chamber Chatter
by Claudia Hughes, Chamber Manager
"Heppner, bicycling paradise" is the description given by Bill
Hanlon who has pedalled through his research in recommending
a brochure for Heppner. With the assistance of Doris Brosnan,
Twice Upon A Time, and the Chamber, a potential cycling
brochure has been created. For those of us who seldom put any
miles on our exercise bike, let alone pedal these rolling hills, this
is, indeed, a foreign idea. For many others, it is just what the
doctor ordered: great bicycling over hills, little traffic, small town
friendliness, food, and fun. Ideas such as this mean more options
for merchandising, people to frequent motels, and bed and
breakfasts and a chance to bring people to Heppner without any
negative impact to the community. Families and small cycling
groups would be the marketing target. Bicycling to Heppner could
become what wind surfing is to Hood River, skiing is to Bend and
hang gliding is to Lakeview without all the traffic. Let us know
what you think. HCC will be discussing the project and funding
would need to be secured. There are potential grants available.
As the 1998 Heppner calendar of events began shaping up, it is
apparent that there is much to do for both visitors and locals in this
community and the Willow Creek Valley. Just in Heppner there
is Town & Country, Wee Bit 'O Ireland, Heppner Volkswalk, a
ladies', men's and couples tournament at Willow Creek Country
Club, MS Walkathon, Rolling Hills Run, Columbia Plateau Stage
Race, BMW Motorcycles, the Morrow County Fair and Oregon
Trail Pro-Rodeo and Artifactory.
Missing .... maybe a
Scandinavian Christmas Festival, some additional events at the
rodeo arena, pool events, an ag event, and a possible "Best Dam
Event Ever", featuring the Willow Lake Raft Race or remote
control boat races. The possibilities are endless to bnng fun and
increased economy to Heppner and "the valley".
Just hang on a little longer, folks. It will all come together
when the Main Street Project is completed. It's change and it's
going to be exciting! Take another "patience pill", go
soak with a friend in the therapy pool and remember to laugh.
Thought for the week: "Happiness is a way station between too
little and too much."
CHAM BER MAIN STREET NEWS
WEEK OF OCTOBER 13,1997
brought to you by the Heppner Chamber of
Commerce (541) 676-5536
MAIN STREET WEEKLY REPORT
-MAIN STREET MEETING informants who keep us updated on
the project were Tony George and Brent Reynolds, ODOT, and
Lavar Bowles, Weaver.
-STREET PAVING, except the final lift, sidewalk and bulb detail
should be completed within the next two days. More people have
been brought in to move the project along faster. Weather forecast
is for two full weeks of 70 degree temperatures. ODOT has sent a
change request to Salem to allow paving through October 24.
-59 DEGREES. One public official who shall remain unnamed,
suggested that maybe the Bank of Eastern Oregon could make
sure their thermometer never reads less than 59 degrees until all
paving is complete. Sounded good to the group around the table.
The project may be completed if weather meets the specs;
otherwise it will be spring for the final lift. The pavers and
luminaries will go in even if the weather doesn't allow for
final lift.
-PARKING. Now that traffic has transferred to the middle lane,
vehicles may park on both the east and west side after hours. Care
is requested in driving between the cones when doing so. Please do
not park there during work hours as machinery access is needed.
-CENTRAL RED APPLE driveway off Main may be used by
light vehicles beginning Wednesday. No trucks or trailers yet,
please. Again, we thank Forrie, Gail and Alan for the donation of
paper on which to run these weekly newsletters.
-VINEGAR & HONEY. What is that saying? "You catch more
flies with honey than you do with vinegar." Vinegar, however, is
prescribed periodically for health reasons and many recipes
wouldn’t turn out without it. It takes a mix of both to keep
everyone on track. In our daily lives, too.
-THUMBS UP AWARD goes to individuals at the Main Street
meeting Monday who showed some extra vim and "vinegar", yet
still walked out the door together with apologies and the
determination to stay on track. "I'm sorry" are two little words that
go a long way these days. People who use them are to be admired.
Equally important is the acceptance of those two words.
-LUMINARIES will probably be almost the last piece of the
puzzle. All holes must be dug and ready before the wire is pulled
and the electricity can be hooked up. When the bulbs are complete,
change will happen fast. Won't the holiday season be festive with
the new street lights?
-LUXURY VACATION GIVE-AWAY extended through the
end of the month. Remind your customers to pick up their punch
cards to be eligible fore the Chamber of Commerce drawing.
Winner will be able to select from six to twelve sites, some within
a half day's drive. The trip is for luxury accommodations with
various amenities depending on the site selected. Transportation
and food is the responsibility of the winner. The vacation has a
one-year window of usage between November 1997 and November
1998. The six sites are: Victoria, B.C., Anaheim, Reno, Las Vegas,
Jackson Hole and California Wine Country will possible additions
of Sun Valley, Vancouver, B.C., Whitefish, MT, Skamania Lodge,
Sunriver and Seattle. Winner's choice.
-YOUR CHAMBER OF COMMERCE welcomes visitors.
Meetings are every Tuesday noon, upstairs at Kate's. Upcoming
programs are: October 21-Jim Salyers, manager Kinzua Resources,
LLC; October 28-Morrow County School superintendent Chuck
Starr-the school funding measure. All Chamber member lunch
attendees are eligible for a special drawing in appreciation of their
membership. Coming up.
-THOUGHT FOR YOU WEEK: "Keeping on top of your day is
better than letting your day get on top of you."
