Turns out the Fair Committee was planning a big evening on July 30, the same date as "Celebrate Heppner" and has offered to give everyone a taste of Zac Grooms during the afternoon on the Shamrock.

A sense of humor is a valuable thing to have; it helps you get through moments such as walking around town with a yellow sticky note adhered to a very prominent place. That’s when one discovers who her true friends really are. Those of us in those situations can survive such humiliation by knowing that laughter is the best medicine. Some of us just accidentally contribute more than others. Chamber programs ahead are CenturyTel, the hospital/nursing home plan and Jill Miles, Oregon Economic Development Department.
