SIX - Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon Wednesday, June 23,1999 Caledonian Games planned The 100th anniversary of the Athena Caledonian Games July 10-11 means that ancient traditions of the Scottish heritage have been preserved, honored and recreated annually. Traditions of the tartan, caber toss, the Scottish dances are all the same as they were hundreds of years ago. People came together at Highland games to share, worship and compete in friendly feats of strength. 1898 saw the creation of a Umatilla County Caledonian Society for the purpose of preserving Athena's Scottish tradition. Special trains were chartered to bring people to Athena where they participated in the first picnic and games held in 1899. The Highland games continued in Athena annually until 1914. In the manner of the Highland games of 100 years ago, Athena's festivities of 1999 begin with a parade on Saturday morning, to be followed by dancing, piping and Scottish athletic heavy events competitions. Sheep dog trials with about 48 dogs working the sheep throughout a difficult course show the working relationship between dogs and handler. Pipe bands march to show off their talents on the field while playing traditional tunes. There is a 5K race, horseshoe tournaments, Celtic harp performances, golf, Scottish stories and an afternoon of fiddling on stage by Nolan Murray and the fiddling group the Reel Fling. There is a full lineup of music for the Scottish clansman or the spectator. "Anyone can enter the athletic events, so step right up and try the rolling pin toss and the caber toss," said a news release. A Friday night outdoor-concert will kick-off the festival. The Celtic band called Raven from Portland will perform. Raven blends fiddle, voices, guitars and bagpipes in both traditional Scottish and a contemporary sound. This is a command performance for Athena's Caledonian Games as they are returning the second year. "You will enjoy their humor and their musicianship Friday, July 9, at 8:00 p.m. in the athletic field of the Athena high school," said the release. Tickets may be purchased at the door for $8. "The mellow sound of Rob Barrick's bagpipes and Laurie Byers' smooth presence and singing style will lull you and cajole you," said organizer Sue Fnese of Athena. "You'll love hearing this group." The Caledonian Gaines festival is family-oriented and colorful, with all the beautiful tartans. It accentuates youth in dancing and piping competitions. It is free and open to the public until the Saturday evening Tattoo at 6:30 p.m. Admission for the Tattoo is $3 per person. Commemorative coverlets depicting the essence of the Blue Mountains, the sheepdog and a Scottish piper and dancer are featured on a 100 percent cotton coverlet. It measures about 50" x 70" and may be purchased at the Caledonian Games souvenir booth.

PUBLIC NOTICE Maryhill free to Morrow Maryhill Museum of Art invites residents of Morrow Grant Gilliam and Wheeler counties to visit free during July. Persons who reside in those counties need only present their driver's license to receive complimentary admission during July.

"This is our way of adding to the fun and pleasure of a family outing." Visitors in July can view A Gathering: Native American Art from the Pamplin Collection.

The exhibit consists of works from the museum's permanent collection as well as by contemporary artists, including Deborah Butterfield and Andy Warhol. Additionally during July, visitors can view Quiet Cadence: American Portraits. The portraits, all of women of varying ages and from diverse walks of life, share a unifying meditative mood.
