Marine Corps Pvt. Robert E.
Haviland, a 2001 graduate o f
Riverside High School m Boardman.
recently completed basic training
at Marine Corps Recruit Depot in
San D iego.
Haviland successfully completed
12 w eeks o f training designed to
challenge new Marine recruits both
physically and m entally.
Haviland and fellow recruits
began their training at 5 a.m. by
running three miles and performing
calisthenics. In addition to the
physical conditioning program,
Haviland spent numerous hours in
classroom and field assignm ents
which included learning first aid,
uniform regulations, combat water
survival, marksmanship, hand-to-
hand combat and assorted weapons
training. They performed close order
drill and operated as a small infantry
unit during field training.
Haviland and other recruits also
received instruction on the Marine
Corps' core values - honor, courage
and commitment and what the words
mean in guiding personal and
professional conduct.
Haviland and fellow recruits
ended the training phase with The
Crucible, a 54-hour team effort
problem solving evolution which
culminated with a ceremony in which
the recruits were presented the
Marine Corps Emblem and were
addressed as "Marines" for the first
time since boot camp began.

they worked through the 10 modules,
teachers created a unit portfolio that
included: a unit plan, student
samples, teacher support materials
and assessment tools that they can
im mediately use in their own
classrooms, he said.
Teachers learned to use Microsoft
PowerPoint, Encarta, W ord and
Publisher along with the Internet
to help students learn more
productively.
"Technology can be a great tool
if you know how to use it properly,
but it can also be overwhelming,"
noted participating teacher Lea
Mathieu. "My eighth grade language
arts students are giving Power Point
presentations this month based on
their research papers because of
things I learned in this class."
Next spring or fall there will be
another opportunity for 20 more
Morrow County teachers to
participate in this program.

Chamber Chatter
Wedding
By Claudia Hughes
Chamber Executive Director
By this time next week the
Halloween Spooks will have come
and gone and we'll have turned yet
another calendar page. How can we
accomplish anything worthwhile
if powers beyond our means keep
cutting short the hours in a day, the
days in a month, and the months
in a yeaf? I think it's time for a much
younger Chamber executive director
to take over because before one turns
50, the time seems to go slower and
one gets more done. Either that or
there are just way too many options
and too little time.
Com ing up on the Cham ber
meeting calendar on Tuesday, Oct.
30, will be a preview o f possible
plans for the property between the
Mini Park and the Antique
Machinery leg of the Morrow County
Museum (formerly Unocal property ).
Taken m steps, it will be an
additional asset to Heppner. Keep
in mind that it is not possible to build
there.
On Tuesday, Nov. 6, Billie Jean
M om s, executive director o f the
Hermiston Chamber o f Commerce,
wall share details o f her trip to New
York City on the Freedom Flight,
as well as some o f the projects o f
the Hermiston Chamber. The regular
first Tuesday business meeting where
all entities report will be postponed
to Nov. 13.
Other item s coming up on the
C ham ber agenda are: brochure
com m ittee .planning meeting;
planning for the Christmas Light
Parade scheduled for Thursday, Nov.
29; meeting o f the awards and Town
and Country Committee; nominees
for board o f directors; and "the beat
goes on."
Thought for the week: "Planning
is a wonderful thing...it almost never
works out, but it is a wonderful thing
anyway." -B. Lazinka
