Downtown trees in need o f decorators for the holidays Some trees on the sidewalks of Heppner need adoption during this holiday season, says Terry Baker, Heppner Chamber o f Commerce executive director. Baker says that each year those who have adopted the trees buy lights to put up for the season and then take them down and keep the lights at their home until the next year. This year, however, some of those who have adopted trees in the past are elderly or have passed away, leaving some trees in need of decorators. Baker says that the trees do not need maintenance or caretaking, just someone to decorate them for the holidays. This year decorators are asked to put up the lights on November 21 or 22. when electricity will be available. The trees w ill be lit on November 24. Baker says that it is hoped that the white mini-lights w ill be available locally this year, so that people do not have to go out of town for the decorations. Anyone who would like to volunteer is asked to call Baker at the Chamber office. 676-5536. as soon as possible.
