HERMISTON HERALD One of Hermiston Main Street’s empty store- fronts has been filled by McLeod’s Bargain Bin. The store at 256 E. Main Street sells new and used clothing, toys, purses and other items. It opened Sept. 16. Store owners Corey and Alyssa McLeod said they have been thinking about opening a bargain store for years, and felt the time was right now that three of their children have moved away from home. “I have six kids, so I have always had to be thriftier and know how to make every dollar stretch,” Alyssa said. She is putting her bar- gain-hunting skills to use with McLeod’s Bargain Bin to find good deals on merchandise that can be re-sold in the store. She said the store doesn’t do consignment on miscella- neous items but does buy in bulk. Beyond what is al- ready featured in the store, customers are encouraged to request specific items for the McLeods to hunt down good deals for. Store hours are 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Wednesday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Saturdays and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sun- days.

The new property is off South Highway 395 and SE Kelli Boulevard, across the Street from the Oregon Child Development Coali- tion Migrant & Early Head Start building. EOT provides high- speed internet access in Hermiston, Pendleton, Umatilla, Boardman, Irri- gon and Plymouth, WA. www.hermistonlmbc.com First Christian Church CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP As local leaders anxiously await transfer of the former Umatilla Chemical Depot to local control, the Oregon Military Department is look- ing forward to receiving their portion of the land as well. Lt. Col. Noel Hoback, who became the newest commander of Oregon Training Command earlier this month, said the transfer of approximately 7,400 acres of the land from the U.S. Army to the Oregon Military Department will allow them to upgrade Camp Umatilla, making it a safer, more ef- fective place for soldiers to train. The depot was construct- ed in 1941 in preparation for World War II, and Hoback said it seems that many of the buildings being used by the National Guard now were part of the original con- struction. “They’re old buildings,” he said. “There’s just a lot of improvement needed.” The department has been putting together a list of planned capital improve- ments to buildings, ranges and infrastructure and is working on completing all of the necessary environmental impact studies. But until the Army transfers the land, the National Guard is a tenant and not the property’s owner. Camp Umatilla is one of four training centers in the state, all overseen by Ore- gon Training Command. Ac- cording to the U.S. Army’s website, it is the “Oregon National Guard’s 1st Infan- try Training Battalion of the 249th Regional Training In- stitute and the only certified Army infantry training acad- emy west of the Mississippi River in the continental Unit- ed States.” Hoback said the land transfer will likely lead to a moderate increase in staffing and other activity out at the camp, including some units doing their annual training there during the summer. “I think it’s going to be good for the community,” he said. He said the people using the base will be Oregonians’ “neighbors and friends” in- stead of people coming in from out of state. After years of delays, the latest plan is for the transfer of the depot land to hap- pen on Dec. 1. About 7,400 acres will go to the Oregon Military Department, while about 5,600 acres will be- come a wildlife refuge and approximately 4,000 acres will be used for industrial, agricultural and right of way development. The transpor- tation package passed by the state legislature this year sets aside money for the Colum- bia Development Authority to improve access to the de- pot from Interstate 82.
