“Country pride, county
wide” describes not only the
M orrow C ounty Fair 2012
but also the Morrow County
Chronicles 2012. O f course,
the Chronicles will be for sale
at the fair again this year.
The first story in this year’s
collection of historical articles
features Samuel H. Boardman,
the man after whom the com
munity on the banks o f the Co
lumbia is named. Boardman’s
influence extended beyond
Morrow County, through his
concern for the state’s natural
beauty, and included his serv
ing as an administrator o f the
Oregon State Parks D epart
ment.
The last o f the 16 articles
in this edition of the Chronicles
takes the reader up into the
m ountains in the southern
part o f the county, to the “Lin
ger Longer” Guard Station.
B etw een those two stories,
details abound about other
county residents, about Mor
row C ounty sheriffs, about
m ilitary veterans, and about
early farm ing m ethods and
the com ing o f electricity to
our rural areas. The 2012 issue
o f the Chronicles is truly an
example o f country pride, and
it certainly holds county-wide
appeal.
The booklet is available
for $7 this year. It is presently
on sale at the Bank o f Eastern
Oregon branches, the Board-
man Pharmacy, the Communi
ty Bank in Heppner, M urray’s
Drugstore, and in the Morrow
County Museum.
Individual Chronicles will
also be available throughout
the four days o f the fair; the
sets o f the Chronicles, includ
ing the 2012 edition, will again
be on sale for $100.
