EIGHT - Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon Wednesday, October 25, 2000 Commission schedules meeting The Oregon Wheat _ Commission, in conjunction with the Idaho Wheat Commission and the Washington Wheat Commission, will hold a regular meeting on Tuesday, Oct. 31, and Wednesday, Nov. 1, at the Owyhee Plaza Hotel, 1109 Main St., Boise, ID. The commission meeting is open to the public. Chamber Chatter B y C liu d la Hugh««, Cham bar M anaflT By Claudia Hughes What a great time to walk in Heppner. Not only are the beautiful fall colors painting the town, they are joined by quite an array of scarecrows in the businesses as well as residential. Large, small, funny and scary, they are seen in a variety of poses and activities from fishing in a pool, to cuddling together, to just hanging out or having a refreshing dnnk. Enjoy them and be sure to vote by Monday, Oct. 30, for the "People's Choice." Also, take time to identify the location of those pictured in the Gazette for a special prize from the Chamber. It is sad to lose longtime businesses in Heppner and a good lesson for all of us. Every time we choose to shop out-of- town for items we can buy here, we are endangering our very own economy. It's a choice we have, shop locally and keep Heppner healthy or leave town and take the chance of businesses closing while helping big business grow and leaving your dollars to turn over in another town. Local prices are very comparable, especially when you factor in the cost of gasoline and your valued .time. Give it some thought; we all need to support each other. A word on endorsements. As more and more phone solicitations occur, if they include a statement that the Chamber or another organization "endorses" that product, please check it out. Any Chamber endopsemept^ will be announced to ~-4he---- membership and community first. Mark your calendars to be a part of the decision making on design and location of the Heppner Library/City Hall Complex. The purpose of the Saturday, Oct. 28, session at St. Patrick's Senior Center from 1-4 p.m. will be to give input to architects in a pre-design work session. It belongs to you and you're invited to help make the permanent decisions which will give the library more space as well as provide our community with a new City Hall. Thought for the week: "If quitters never win, and winners never quit, what fool came up with "Quit while you're ahead"?

Kay Robinson ___________________ 10-25-lc On Saturday, Oct. 14, my husband and I were about eight miles outside of Heppner when we broke an axle on our pickup. We had a full cord of wood and lost our brakes when it happened. We were very shook up because we could have been seriously hurt, and we had major damage to our truck. Within five minutes, a young man stopped and let my husband use his cell phone. Steve Cherry from the Dept, of Fish and Game gave me a ride into Heppner so I could make more phone calls. The young ladies at the Chevron station let me use their phone when the pay phone wouldn’t allow usage of my calling card. They had me wait inside where it was warm until help arrived. There was a very nice couple who drove all the way back up to where my husband was waiting, just to tell him our family was on the way, and then came all the way back into town to bring my book out of the truck. Bob Blodgett’s son stopped to help. Brian Spivey from the Forest Service stopped and sat with my husband for almost two hours waiting for all of us to get up there, then helped load the wood on my brother-in-law’s flatbed and the truck on the transport trailer. There was a farmer who lives right where we broke down who came up with his backhoe and helped lift the truck onto the trailer. There were many others who stopped to offer assistance. We would like to thank, from the bottom of our hearts, all of the wonderfully, caring people, mostly from Heppner, who helped us in one way or another. Thank you to all of you, and to our family, who came to our rescue. You are what makes living in this community great!
