A View from the Hill
By Doris Brosnan
With the calendar’s
beginning of the Fall sea-
son has arrived the official
beginnings of popular deer
and elk hunting seasons,
and the Willow Creek Ter-
race residents who partici-
pate in morning discussions
have had plenty to say about
“hunting.”
Stories of earlier times
invariably include more
references to “sustenance”
than to “sport,” for the
success of hunting efforts
was important to having
food on the table. Residents
have also remembered the
evolution of hunting during
their hunting days: the need
for licenses, the increasing
rules and regulations, the
seemingly fewer places
open to public hunting, and
the increasing costs.
Sports are just one ben-
eficiary of funds from the
Heppner Schools’ Booster
Club, which held its an-
nual fundraising dinner
and auction last Saturday
evening. For the auction,
the Terrace Staff donated
many items for a “Reading
Basket.” Among the many
enjoyable reading-related
items in the huge basket
were autographed copies
of local author Scott McE-
wen’s two books, donated
by McEwen.
Since last week was
designated “Fire Preven-
tion Week,” conversations
this week have included
reactions to the evacua-
tion exercise always held
at this time of year. Staff
and residents must all par-
ticipate in the fire drill, and
not everyone appreciates
the inconvenience until
more thought is given to its
importance. This is espe-
cially timely this year, as a
discussion has also focused
on the proposed new fire
hall for Heppner. One of
the Terrace’s employees is
also a volunteer firefighter,
so thanks is extended to Ka-
tilyn Jordan for her service.
This week is also time
for another important dis-
comfort, flu shots. Both
staff and residents will
endure the moments of
unease for the months of
protection. And speaking of
“protection,” Tuesday, Oct.
13, marked the origin of
the U.S. Navy in 1775, and
with it came recognition of
the community’s two Navy
veterans, Kenneth Peck and
Marj Burgess.
Since Thursday is “Na-
tional Cake Decorating
Day,” the residents on the
Hill will have an opportu-
nity to exercise their skills
in decorating individual
cakes. Getting the creative
juices flowing should be
fun, and later eating the
results should be a fitting
reward.
“National Color Day”
is on the 22 nd . The resi-
dents and staff will have
an opportunity that day to
take a test that answers the
question, “What color is my
personality?” And this for-
fun answer will include an
explanation of what one’s
color reflects.
Heppner preschoolers
in the guise of ghosts, gob-
lins and other creepy crea-
tures will haunt the Willow
Creek Terrace on the 27 th ,
coming to party with the
residents. The young people
always seem to enjoy this
annual Halloween party
at the Terrace, and some
will undoubtedly return
on Halloween for more
treats, when the “Pumpkin
Patch” – residents wearing
their pumpkin t-shirts – will
welcome trick-or-treaters
until 8 p.m.
Two familiar faces will
be missing from the “Pump-
kin Patch” this year, and
both are missed by the
community. Health issues
resulted in Lil Boyce’s
and Billie Lacey’s having
to move. Billie has since
passed away.
Fay Pierce returned to
Heppner and moved into
an apartment at the Terrace
on Sep. 21. She is a wel-
come addition to life on the
Hill. Two other additions
welcomed to the Terrace
are staff members Saman-
tha Lemmon and Douglas
Struthers, who joined the
community in August. The
welcome mat is out for new
residents, also, for three
apartments are available at
the Terrace, which can be
viewed as an opportunity to
meet new people and forge
new friendships.
