Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon Wednesday, May 20, 2009 - SEVEN
Heppner teens recognized
by theatre scout
Kolleen Chapa and Zech Hintz
On Sunday eve
ning, May 10, after the
last performance o f the
H eppner High School
Drama’s performance of
“A Broadway Review,”
a professional theatre
scout from The C ove
nant Players approached
Zech Hintz and Kolleen
Chapa.
The C ovenant
Players is a traveling
theatre troop that visits
com m unities and per
forms mostly in churches,
but for public events as
well. The northwest team
leader approached Hintz,
a freshman at HHS, and
presented him w ith a
card. She encouraged
him to contact them after
graduation, she was very
impressed with his tal
ent. She then asked him
about the actress who
played Eponine in Les
M iserables during the
performance. When she
learned it was Chapa,
a sophom ore at HHS,
she searched through the
crowd and presented her
with com plim ents and
her card. She also was
encouraged to call them
when she was ready to
graduate.
“ Both the kids
are flying on cloud nine,
to say the least,” Coach
Jodi Chapa stated. “All
the kids did an awesome
job. It was the biggest
play we have ever done
and seemed to be widely
accepted by our audienc
es. The drama program
really is an important part
of our community. I was
told recently that due to
budget cuts, our spring
program may be cut com
pletely this year. We per
form two times a year and
I have about 12-25 kids
who perform each play.
It is a very active program
and with a community
so supportive of sports, I
hope they can support our
program as well. All or
our players’ props, scen
ery, costumes, scripts and
music are paid for strictly
by our fundraising efforts
and donations during our
performances.”

There’s a rum or going around that it doesn’t ever get hot here. (W h o started
that?) Yet each summer. Eclipse Heating and Cooling installs m ore cooling
systems. It makes sense: Discom fort goes down; property values go up.
This su m m e r will be n o different. Exce p t fo r o n e thing.
Energy costs are increasing across the board. (I don’t even want to think about
next winter’s gas prices). So high-efficiency heating and cooling systems will likely
go up too.
The longer you use your older energy-robbing system, you may be losing more
money on utilities and repairs than a new one would cost? Especially when you
can..

repair bills go od b ye fo r 10 years.

BEWARE OF PREMATURE POSSESSION
Possession is normally
given the new buyer to coin
cide with the settlement date.
No problem here. But what
do you do if the buyer wants
possession before settle
ment? Be careful! Once a
buyer has possession of your
house, you may find that
all of a sudden — he is not
in such a big hurry to close.
He may claim that all sorts
of things are wrong with the
house and may insist they
be corrected before passing
papers, or even worse, may
decide that he does not want
the property at all.
S Y K E S
If you must
allow the
buyer to occupy before
settlement, be sure that
he agrees to pay a certain
amount each day up to the
closing to cover, at least, the
amount you pay each day for
taxes, insurance, and interest
the buyer would be paying
on the new loan.
The best policy is not to
allow the buyer to move in
prior to settlement. If you
have no choice, try to have
the closing date moved ahead
to coincide with his need for
the property.
