Chamber Chatter By Claudia Hughes Chamber Executive Director Shamrock Lanes and Pot O’ Gold Cafe has just become the 80th member o f the Heppner Chamber o f Commerce. Welcome! More members enable the chamber to keep the dues down and to do a better job o f promoting our businesses and communities. When visitors come, w hen businesses are patronized, when funding is available to do advertising and promotion, when brochures are printed and events are publicized; when our town has a positive image and looks clean and cared about, when we have events, everyone benefits. The Heppner Chamber has not raised its dues for a number o f years. More members and support from the community in non-dues income projects has made this possible. Our Morrow County Rodeo Court is attending their last function during Round-Up week as they represent their communities in the parades. They have been Morrow County ambassadors as they traveled from parade to parade with big smiles and waves. The cham ber appreciates the court spreading the word about this great county. Future leaders, the search is on. Again this year the Heppner Coordinating Council is planning a countywide Morrow leadership 2001 series o f six sessions. This is a great opportunity to meet new faces while learning about planning, development, communication, fundraising, grant writing and much more. The training is free through RD1 and each ev ening session begins with dinner. Stop by the city, the chamber, HCC for further information. It’s open to interested persons o f all ages. Training will be October to mid-December. Next week: picnic in the park and preview of plans for the old Unocal property. It’s exciting. Thought for the week: "When you wish to hurry something, that means you no longer care about it and want to get on to other things." -R.M.
