Correcting ‘Calamity’ Please accept my apologies. And my corrections. The people of Heppner helped me constantly during my years of research into the Heppner Flood. And Heppner citizens were the first in line to read the book that resulted from that generosity: “Calamity: The Heppner Flood of 1903.” This story of tragedy and resilience grabbed me by the heart, and I was committed to telling it without so much as a bad semicolon. When the book came out in 2009, I believed it was error-free. Alas, I’ve discovered mistakes. They’re not what you’d call huge mistakes, but any mistake is huge when people are depending on your facts. It’s too late for the perfection I intended, so as the next-best thing, I’ve borrowed what the academic press does with “errata.” The University of Washington Press (which pub- lished “Calamity”) has printed a list of corrections on slips of paper that fit inside the cover of the book. My new wish is to get Corrections pages to everyone who has “Calamity” or ever will. All the remaining “Calamity” copies in the publisher’s warehouse have just been stuffed with the Corrections slips. I’m coming to Heppner for the St. Patrick’s Day celebration, and will be at the Morrow County Heritage Museum Friday and Saturday during regular museum hours. I would love it if everyone who has “Calamity” came to the museum to get a Correc- tions page. At the museum, when I am not begging the par- don of everyone I see, I will be slipping Corrections pages into autographed copies of “Calamity.” The museum inventory will be as reliable as I can make it. I will leave a supply of Corrections slips at the museum. And anyone who sends an e-mail to joan- nbyrd@earthlink.net will receive the list by postal service or e-mail, whichever they choose. I’m sorry these mistakes happened. And I thank everyone who joins me in “correcting” them. (s) Joann Green Byrd, Seattle Remembrance walk to benefit fire fighters The sponsors of the Remembrance Walk and 5K Run are extending the welcome mat for this Sat- urday morning, March 14, starting at 9:30 a.m. at the United Methodist Church. The social hour begins at 8:30 a.m. in the church basement. “Come rain or shine, the walk will roll out the red carpet and people who want to be part of the social hour are also invited,” said orga- nizers. A special invitation is extended to all fire and ambulance volunteers, with a challenge to come walk, said a spokesperson. “The fundraiser is do- ing well. We’re very ex- cited. This is the seventh year we’ve done this,” said committee member Susan Hisler. “We can all give a little bit. Any and all dona- tions are all appreciated.” “We’ve continued to gather every year to do this in memory of Donna Schon- bachler (a Home Health and Hospice nurse and beloved member of the community who has passed away),” added co-organizer Patty Matheny. This year’s proceeds will be divided between the Heppner Volunteer Fire Department and the South Morrow EMT Association, which covers all of South Morrow County. Heppner Fire Chief and Emergency Medical Services Coor- dinator for the EMT As- sociation Rusty Estes said that the proceeds will go toward the purchase of gas meters which will enable the fire fighters to detect four different gases in fire investigations. Job fair brings 470 to SAGE Center S econd annual agriculture and energy job fair brings employers, educational institutions, students and job-seekers together BOARDMAN— Thirty employers, edu- cational institutions and government agencies had the opportunity to meet with more than 400 job seekers and students last Wednesday at the second annual SAGE Center Agriculture and Energy Job Fair. Kalie Davis, SAGE Center manager, said the goal of the job fair, which 470 people attended, is to make connections. “If the employers are successful in finding a workforce, we consider the job fair a success,” Davis said. Employers included local food processors, farming operations, tech- nology and energy com- panies, while educational institutions and govern- ment agencies also par- ticipated in the event. High school and college students from across the region attended the event to learn about job and education opportunities. “By building a rela- tionship with students in our region we are able to let them know early on about the employers in our area and the training or education needed to come back and start a career,” Davis said. Dupont Pioneer at- tended the job fair again this year after fulfilling much of its summer hir- ing needs for the com- pany’s breeder seed pro- gram during last year’s event. “We hired over 50 percent of our work force for in the fields from here,” said Matt Quilter, Dupont Pioneer produc- tion coordinator. High school students comprise the employees needed for the program. Bladimir Molina, Du- pont Pioneer research associate, said the main task for high school em- ployees is de-tasseling or pulling the male— tassel—part from the corn plant and control pollination. He added that more students already knew about the company’s oppor- tunities this year and were ready to come work for the summer. “This is also a great networking opportunity with other businesses,” Kirk Jacobson, Beef Northwest human Christensen said. resources manager, left, talks with “It gives us an op- Chelsey Magoteaux and Lindsey Ca- portunity to see bral during the second annual SAGE Agriculture and Energy Job the challenges that Center Fair Wednesday in Boardman. –Con- other businesses tributed photo face.” Educational the school’s relationship institutions at the event with local employers and were Perry Technical promote local jobs with Institute, Eastern Oregon students.
