Chamber Chatter
Fifteen days into 2001 and this
I know:
It's good to see our rolling hills
outlined against a pastel sky, rather
than hidden in a bank o f fog. How
lucky we are to live where there
is no traffic congestion as we drive
past cattle and sheep feeding, deer
and antelope at play, to arrive in
an inviting community where we
can count on someone to help if
help is needed and there are few
strangers. Space is at a premium
in this world and we are so fortunate
to have it.
Fine folks were honored during
Town and Country, a testimony o f
what we're all about. Nearly 200
were in attendance as a toast was
given to our Heppner Volunteer
Fire Department; friends and
neighbors caught up on their visiting
to the beautiful background music
o f Amy Jepsen; and cartoonist Jack
Ohman humiliated a few and
brought laughter to others. Good
sports all. Congratulations to the
2000 honorees.
The Elks again worked hard to
put on a great dinner, accommodate
all meetings, assisted in many ways,
but let it be known that they did not
donate the dinner as stated in the
East Oregonian. That would be
going above and beyond the call
o f duty. Not only that, it would leave
people wondering just why they
had to purchase a dinner ticket. Rest
assured, the Chamber is paying the
Elks for the dinner and an excellent
one it was. We are fortunate to have
this facility and the cooperation of
fine volunteers.
A Heppner delegation traveled
to Salem Tuesday to participate in
Rural Oregon Day, an opportunity
to build legislative awareness o f
Rural Oregon's strengths and
weaknesses. Visibility and real faces
can often make a difference, we
hope.
It's not a good thing to start off
the New Year with a computer virus,
especially a virus attached to the
Chamber o f Commerce computer
that sends unmentionable screen
saver attachments. Thanks to new
chamber member Ed Struthers and
the assistance o f Tom Rawlins, that
matter has been handled. Beware,
you can send viruses without
knowing you are doing so, or even
viewing what you are sending.
Now that the festivities o f Town
and Country are finished, tree lights
may be removed. It was suggested
to me that green lights would be
great for St. Patrick's weekend.
While I agreed, it might be stretch
ing our luck to request it o f all the
fine volunteers who faithfully put
up and take down the Christmas
lights. What do they think?
And this I know; enough for now.
It's time to get on with chamber goal
setting for 2001 and the wearing
o' the green for one more year.
May 2001 be great for Heppner
and the W illow Creek Valley.
