Despite playing in some
very challenging weather
conditions, the Heppner
Mustang golf teams came
away with team and in-
dividual victories at the
Enterprise Invitational. The
tournament was held at
the Alpine Meadows Golf
Club. The golfers played in
a steady 20-mile-per-hour
wind that made the mid-40
degree temperature seem
much colder. A light and
steady rain fell throughout
the day and added to the
tough conditions.
The Mustang girls’
team took the team title
with a solid round of 428.

The Tri-County Shrine
Club hosted a banquet to
honor the local boys who
will play in the Portland
Shriners Children’s Hospi-
tal football game in Baker
City on Aug. 6. The play-
ers who were chosen to
represent their team, school
and community in the game
were Patrick Collins and CJ
Kindle from Heppner and
Freddy Vera from Irrigon
High School. Also honored
were alternate selections
Weston Putman and Kaden
Clark from Heppner High
School and Cougar Kroske
from Irrigon.
These young men were
nominated by their coaches
and then selected by a com-
mittee on three criteria.
Their athletic accomplish-
ments, their academics and
their community service
were why these players
were chosen to represent
the Shriners in their cause to
help children receive medi-
cal care. The game in Baker
City is a major fundraiser
for the Portland Shriners
Children’s Hospital, which
was opened in 1924. More

The team will now prepare
for the district tournament,
which will be held at the
Pendleton Country Club
May 9-10.

than 60,000 children have
received medical care at
the hospital since it opened.
The team members,
families and friends in at-
tendance were treated to a
dinner at the Heppner Elk’s
Club. Tri-County Shrine
Club President Archie Ball
welcomed everyone in at-

all thanked their parents,
coaches, communities and
the Shriners. They all hon-
ored their teammates, their
coaches and opponents who
were in the room.
Jim Kindle then spoke
about his great experience
as a Shrine Team member
and playing in the game.
It is rather unique to have
a father and a son both be
selected to play in the game,
as is the case this year with
Jim and CJ Kindle.
Irrigon football coach
Steve Sheller talked about
the special characteristics
that his two players, Freddy
and Cougar, have that make
them both great leaders.
Heppner coach Greg Grant
then talked about the Shrine
game experience he knows
about from coaching in the
game six times. He inished
up the night by talking
about this special group of
seniors that led the Heppner
Mustangs to a state football
championship this year.
Those who know them say
the leadership, unselfish-
ness, character and hard
work by Collins, Kindle,
Putman and Clark will be
missed in the halls of Hep-
pner High School. It was
part of the reason that led
them to be selected for this
honor and will serve them
in the rest of their lives.
The Tri-County Shrine
Club members who attend-
ed the event were Archie
Ball, Merlin Hughes, Gene
Orwick and Herman Win-
ter. Anyone who would like
to place an ad in the Shrine
Game program in support
of any of the players can
contact Herman Winter.
