Dear editor, It has been a year since I began to volunteer at the Neighborhood Center, and I have found it to be a very rewarding experience, seeing the blessing it is to many. The center is not just gently-used clothing, house- wares, books, toys, shoes and a food pantry. It is family and friends caring and supplying the needs of others, done through the donations of food, clothing and miscellaneous items. These are in return sold in the store at affordable prices to purchase food for the pantry, which supplies food boxes for those in need. Each process requires volunteers who have the desire to serve others by donating their time and energy to receive, sort, clean or launder donations, made presentable and ready for the store. I’m writing this to let the community know the center can always use more volunteers and to see if anyone is interested in investing their time in the lives of others while being blessed themselves. If so, please call or come in and speak to Lisa. The phone number is 541-676-5024. Thank you one and all, Florence Nolan, Heppner Over the Tee Cup Willow Creek NEOJGA starts tournament season at Wildhorse (For Mabel Leona Rowell Ring, aka “Bami”) From the verdant Umatilla forest The hillsides part To let it wind its willful way Through fields of wheat, Past farms and towns and ranches And pastures of grazing cattle To feed the river Columbia. -- Dammed at Heppner, (Where it flooded lethally in nineteen aught three) Flowing past Lexington, Ione, Cecil and McNabb. -- Near the cemetery northeast Where family graves adorn the Ione hillside I spent boyhood summers, riding with my cousin, Playing with my brothers at grandmother’s house. -- They now are gone, with memories yet strong, While waters of Willow Creek keep flowing along.
