PORT OF MORROW, ORE GON Published: October 11 and 18, 2000 Affid SERVICES FAX PAPER Gazette-Tim es 676-9az8 A big thanks to everyone that made the Colt Volleyball program successful. This was the first year for the program and without the coaches, volunteers, players and parents, it would not have been such a success. Plus, we had knee pad donations that were much needed! We had a good season and we’ll see you next year. Many thanks again, The Colt Volleyball Program 10-18-lp This is just a small thank you to some people with large hearts. What a wonderful and heart warming community we live in. For the past few months, I have been taking my child to fourth grade volleyball practice every Friday and games on every Sun day. This is not a school produc tion; it is put on solely by people who have volunteered to give up time out of their busy schedules every Friday and Sunday to help fulfill the sporting needs o f our children. They receive no pay other than personal gratification in seeing how all these children grow and expand their sporting abilities over this period of time for which they have given so generously. I would like to thank all the people who put on the volleyball practices and games every Sunday. There were several high school volley ball team members who also do nated their Fridays and Sundays to help Missy Cutsforth, Debbie Peck, Liz Green, Coach Molly Rhea, Lindsey Harl and Cindy Doherty, referee. Thank you! To all of you for giving so graciously and unselfishly of your time. We parents really appreciate it; you are special people and we are proud to have you in our commu nity. Rhonda Helfrecht ____________________ 10-18-lc Last Friday, our son was par ticipating in a junior high football game in Heppner. While he was running the ball, he was met head- on by the defensive player. The Heppner player was considerably bigger than Mitch and knocked Mitch backwards. After the play, Mitch stayed on the ground. Af ter about 10 minutes, a very wise decision was made to call your local EMTs. After observing first-hand their quick response, professionalism, knowledge of the situation and excellent handling of our son, we wanted to let the citizens o f H eppner know w hat a great bunch o f people they have as EMTs. We would also like to thank your EMTs for a job well done and also thank the staff at Pioneer Hospital for their efforts. You are very lucky to have such quality people for your health care needs and emergencies. In the end, Mitch’s x-rays and cat scans on his neck proved to be negative. Thanks also go out to the parents and players from Heppner who either stopped by the hospital or called when we got home. Sam and Laura Byrnes Pilot Rock 10-18-lc We would like to thank all of our customers that have supported us for 20-some years.
