After baking them, they decorated the cookies for Christmas. They are giving the cookies to the Heppner firefighters. They decided to do this for community service because the firefighters are people who might have to work on Christmas. This year the club wants to go on a field trip to a bakery.

While in Las Vegas, Nevada, for the National Finals Rodeo Dec. 3-13, Justin Boots awarded the Oregon Trail Pro Rodeo committee's groundsperson, Barry Munkers of Lexington, a gift of $500 and a pair of new Justin Boots for outstanding service to the Women’s Professional Rodeo Association. Justin also selected a national winner from all of the circuits in the U.S. and Canada and that winner received $ 1000 and a pair of full quill ostrich Justin boots. The WPRA circuit members also awarded the OTPR Committee with an engraved pewter plate at the CRC luncheon held in Redmond, Nov. 13, in appreciation for the extra effort Heppner's committee goes to in assuring safe, fast and consistent ground conditions throughout the weekend during the Oregon Trail Pro Rodeo in August. This was the second year in a row Heppner has been recognized for this award. In 1998, the Oregon Trail Pro Rodeo, which is always the third weekend in August, placed second. The OTPR committee is seeking past rodeo posters prior to 1997. Many of the old ones have photos of the queen and courts on them. Anyone who has one is asked to contact Mary Ann Munkers at 989-8488. She would like to make a copy of it for the memorabilia wall in the rodeo office. The goal is to find a poster for every year the rodeo has existed. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated, said Munkers. 7 :3 0 -1 0 p.m. Lot # 44401 REGULAR $22.50 SALE $17.95 Saddle King Flannel Western Shirt Lot # 586-99 REGULAR $26.50 SALE $21.95 Saddle King Western Blue Jeans Lot #487441 REGULAR $15.95 SALE $12.95 Lined Brown Duck Coveralls Lot # 923-23 ^ ^ REGULAR $54.50 SALE $43.95 te a QUALITY Lined Brown Duck Bibs Lot # 278-23 SALE THROUGH FRIDAY, DECEMBER 31st REGULAR $49.95 SALE $39.95 Lexington 989-8221 • 1-800-452-7396 For farm equipment, check out our web site at www megg net
