Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon Wednesday, October 10,2007 - THREE Homecoming activities in full swing at HHS O utdoor Club holds first outing Homecoming week was kicked off bright and early Friday morning, Octo ber 5, with class hall decorat ing. The walls are covered in school spirit and the ceilings with school pride, as each class decorated with as much creativity they could muster, with the theme o f defeating the Irrigon Knights in mind. In the end though, the under dog freshman pulled out the victory winning “ Best Class Hall” . Each hall displayed enorm ous shows o f HHS spirit, and w ith the decorat ing the friendly competition between classes started. M onday consisted o f a “bouncing beat” with a hip hop dress up theme, and kids used MTV and BET as inspiration for their dress ing up, and Monday’s class competition was a tricycle race. C om ing up to the Mustang palace on Tuesday might have felt like being thrown into a Star Trek epi sode with the dress up theme as Sci-Fi, aliens and Harry Winners of Monday’s dress up day at Heppner High School are as follows: boys - Mr. Morgan, and girls - Megan Orr and Kylie Doherty. Potters alike. T uesday’s pep assembly involved those kids with a sweet tooth, as the competition is a candy toss, as students will test their basketball skills while they shoot marshmallows at one another. A classic rivalry was the inspiration for Wednes d ay ’s dress up them e, as th e s tu d e n ts d is g u is e d themselves all as Cops and Robbers. Wednesday night Where’s your school spirit? Lane Bailey, Wacy Coil and Brent Eckman show off their school spirit.

Walking as members of the team, Beth's Buddies, the group raised approximately $3,000 for diabetes research and had a great time in spite o f the rain. The six car c a ra van departed lone at 6:45, hoping that the Portland weatherman was wrong in his prediction o f rain. Ar riving at the walk site, his toric Oaks Park in Southeast Portland, they were only m om entarily discouraged to find that the weatherman unfortunately called it right. With seldom used umbrellas and outerwear designed for Eastern Oregon “rain” the group set off on the walk with great enthusiasm. This non-competitive walk was one of many held around the country for this cause and featured a number o f family and corporate teams. Over 4,000 people participated in the Portland Walk. Upon co m p letin g the 3.1 mile route, the rest of the day included a BBQ and unlimited rides at Oaks Park Amusement Park. B eth’s Buddies quickly determined that the best part of the rainy day was no lines for the rides. In fact, with no lines waiting, the ride attendants let willing riders stay on even the m ost stom ach- churning rides two and three times in a row. At 3:00, the adults finally said no to the “just one more ride” plea and loaded the wet, cold and dizzy crew up for the trip home. A stop at Spooky’s in The Dalles for pizza revived the group who arrived home w ith plenty o f time to finish their weekend homework. Beth's Buddies is a team formed to support Beth Morter, a Type 1 (insulin dependent) diabetic since 2004. Not only did team members collect donations and pledges for the event, hut many helped w ith a spaghetti feed earlier in Sep tember where the proceeds benefited JDRF. JDRF is a leading research organiza tion in the effort to find a cure for Type I diabetes. G reat strid es have been made in diabetes treatments in the past decade or two but a cure remains elusive. Beth’s Buddies are still collecting donations for JDRF until November 1. For more information, contact Anne Morter at 422-7429. Debbie Pech « Snowman A pnthnlder.
