Boy Scouts fundraiser will raise flags in yards four holidays a year The Boy Scouts want to put flags in local yards as a troop fundraiser. -Contributed photo Willow Creek Boy Scout Troop 691 wants to display the American flag in yards all over Heppner. The troop has organized a fun- draiser that gives residents the opportunity to display a three-foot by five-foot flag on an eight-foot pole on four holidays each year: Memorial Day, Flag Day, Independence Day and Vet- erans Day. For $45 the first year and $40 each subsequent year, members of Troop 691 will place a nylon flag in residents’ yards. The flag will be displayed from sunrise to sunset on the four holidays. “Once the service is purchased, residents won’t have to do anything—the scout troop will do all the work for you,” said Dan Grigg, Scoutmaster for Troop 691. “This makes it easy for members of the community to show their patriotic spirit and to have a flag flying at their home.” Funds raised from the project will help the troop keep its equipment updated and will help pay for boys to attend annual summer camps and other high-ad- venture activities. In the past, Boy Scout Troop 691 cut and sold firewood each year to raise funds for sum- mer camps and other activi- ties. “Selling firewood was a great fundraiser and we appreciate the generous donations of Bruce Young Logging, Sam Hornbeck and others over the years. However, what we found is that most of the work was done by the adults and we were looking for a project that the boys themselves could have a significant role in,” said Dieter Waite, executive of the chartering organization. “Scout troops in other communities have done the flag fundraiser and found it to be very well received in their communi- ties. Our plan is to start with Heppner, and potentially expand it to Lexington and Ione over time.” The scout troop will start taking sign-up’s right away. The goal is to have the subscriptions complete and the flags purchased and ready to display by Memo- rial Day. Anyone interested in signing up or who would like more information, send an email to troop691ore- gon@gmail.com or call 541-299-9000. contracts Sam Cornelius, RJSHS junior high head track coach; Eric Solis, half-time IJSHS .5 C team boys basketball. -adopted the first read- ing of the following re- scinded, new or revised policies on district pur- chasing, staff complaints, a mother-friendly workplace involving breast-feeding and expression of breast milk on school property, non-prescription medica- tions, prescription medi- cations, student searches, disposal of district property, bidding requirements. -adopted new, revised or rescinded ARs on: public complaint procedures, grad requirements and bidding requirements. -heard the following announcements: April 2, end of third quarter; next board meeting, Riverside Jr/Sr. High School, May 11.
