HERMISTON HISTORY
KALIE
DAVIS
Workforce Training Program Manager
When and why did you move to the area?
My husband Tyler and I moved to Hermiston in 2009
when he was offered a teaching position at Stanfield
School District. We moved to Stanfield in 2013 to be
in the same community where he taught.
What is your favorite place to eat in the area?
My favorite place to eat in the area is Broken Barrel
in Stanfield. They have top notch food and service!
What do you like to do in your spare time?
Hermiston has a great Parks and Recreation pro-
gram. We have been involved with city league sports
since we moved here and it’s one of our favorite activ-
ities. I also love spending time at our family cabin by
Indian Lake.
What surprises you about Stanfield?
What surprises me most about Stanfield is how many
people graduate and then move back. It’s a small
community that people feel really connected to.
What was the last book you read?
The last book I read was Diary of a Wimpy Kid
“The Getaway” with my son Phoenix. We laughed
throughout the entire book and are looking forward
to starting the next one!
What app or website do you use most often
other than Facebook or Google?
I do workforce development, and whether I am work-
ing with students or giving a presentation to adults,
I always use Prezi. I love the creativity it offers and
how easy it is to use.
If you could travel anywhere, where would you
go?
I am fascinated by history, so I would love to travel
through Europe before World War II.
What is the funniest thing that’s happened to
you?
When I was growing up I got pulled over by a police
officer driving a golf cart to the store for an after-
noon snack.
What is one of your goals for the next 12
months?
To have no debt except our mortgage
What is your proudest accomplishment?
Personally, my proudest accomplishment is my kids
Phoenix and Avalyn. They are always surprising me
with their unique personalities and passions. Profes-
sionally, I would have to say developing new roles
at the Port of Morrow. My time at the SAGE Cen-
ter was both challenging and incredibly rewarding.
Now in Workforce Development, I have the privilege
of connecting people to career opportunities avail-
able within the Port.

25 YEARS AGO
OCT. 19, 1993
In the last week, the idea of sep-
arating Irrigon and Boardman high
school students has been discussed
in the Irrigon city council meeting.
Up until 1959, Boardman and Irri-
gon had separate schools. Then they
consolidated, and for the past three
decades students from both commu-
nities became identified under one
high school in Boardman.
But the desire to return schools
to each community never died, and
when talk of tearing down the 1921
Irrigon school building began, Irri-
gon residents began talking about
splitting the school system to save
the historic site.
“I understand the importance
of community schools,” said Mor-
row County School superintendent
Chuck Starr. “There are a lot of pos-
itive advantages to each community
having its own high schools.”
About 53 percent of Riverside
High School students live in Irrigon.
50 YEARS AGO
OCT. 17, 1968
At their regular meeting Wednes-
day, Oct. 9, the Hermiston City
Council discussed many subjects on
the agenda. Here are a few that are
other than routine:
As a result of protests from local
citizens concerning the placement of
the Hermiston section in the phone
book, Pacific Northwest Bell has
announced they will assemble next
year’s telephone directory as they
have in the past, and place Hermis-
ton at the front of the book, for direc-
tories issued in this area.
A decision was reached to go
ahead with plans for the improve-
ment of the Highway 32 within the
city limits of Hermiston.
Following discussion, it was
decided to have the city manager cor-
respond with the necessary people
advising that signs will be removed
November 15 on Highland Avenue
and Orchard Avenue at the railroad
crossings.

the members were escorted to the
town of Ordnance.
The town now boasts a population
of 527 with 164 families now listed
on the roster. When completely fin-
ished and fully occupied, there will
be room for 350 families. The city
is conveniently located just south of
the main entrance into the Umatilla
Ordnance Depot, making it possible
for workers to walk to their work.
The business section is not com-
pletely filled as yet but boasts an
up-to-date grocery store and space
for several other businesses. These
will be occupied as soon as arrange-
ments and leases can be made and
drawn up, according to Mr. Bliss.
75 YEARS AGO
100 YEARS AGO
A group of members of the Herm-
iston Chamber of Commerce made
an excursion to Ordnance Monday
noon at the invitation of D.W. Bliss,
manager of Hermiston’s newest
neighbor town. The caravan left here
at noon and ate at the Umatilla Ord-
nance Depot cafeteria from where
Right on the eve of peace rumors
from Europe, war in the shape of the
Spanish influenza broke out in the
United States and spread with such
rapidity that it struck around Herm-
iston in the 11th hour of the hold-
ing of the Dairy and Hog Show, and
therefore put a quietus on an annual
OCT. 21, 1943
OCT. 19, 1918
event that is always heralded with
pride and joy by ranchers and citi-
zens alike.
Elaborate preparations had been
made this year by the management
of the fair to make the event one
that would go down in the annals of
Hermiston history as being far more
attractive and on a more stupendous
scale than that of the five preceding
annual Dairy and Hog shows. But
the withering hand of a widespread
infectious disease had to step in at an
inopportune time and put a stop to
these well-laid plans that had meant
so much to the dairymen, hog raisers
and agricultural people of this com-
munity, who have yearly taken just
pride in exhibiting the products of
their farms.
But with good grace all bow to
the precautionary measures enjoined
by a rigid quarantine and agree that
the mayor’s proclamation of clos-
ing schools, the Movie, abandon-
ing church services and stopping
all public gatherings is the best
method of safeguarding the public
against the spread of influenza in this
neighborhood.
