The Heppner alumni
game, now in its 35th year,
has become a cherished
tradition for the community.
Despite the passing of time,
the game continues to bring
former students together for
a nostalgic and competitive
event.
Every year, alumni
from Heppner High School
gather to relive their athlet-
ic glory days on the court.
The game is open to all
graduates, regardless of
age or skill level, fostering
a sense of inclusivity and
camaraderie among partic-
ipants. It serves as a plat-
form for former classmates
to reconnect, reminisce, and
showcase their athletic abil-
ities. The next alumi game
is scheduled for Saturday,
December 23rd at 5:00 pm.

Last year I wrote a letter to
the guy in the red suit.
I left him some cookies and
good whiskey to boot.
And every year I ask for the
same dang thing.
Just wanted a cowboy.
Didn’t even need a ring.
So I waited and I waited.
Yeah, it took him quite a
while.
So long, in fact, I feared the

Then one hot summer day
Delivered to my door
Was the Marlboro Man. A
cowboy galore.

nice teeth, blue eyes
Full head of hair and to my
surprise
He showed up with a truck,
horse trailer, nice rope.
I couldn’t have been happi-
er if he’d sent me the Pope.
He had a tan face and no
trace of a belly.
The members of the
Holly Rebekah Lodge had a
very enjoyable time putting
on “Breakfast with Santa”
for the kids of all ages.
They are looking forward
to making this an annual
event. They wish to thank
Juli Kennedy for donating
her time and talent to take
pictures. If your child had
their picture taken, go to
the Holly Rebekah Lodge
website and print their
picture.
