NEWS A10 • HERMISTONHERALD.COM WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 2020 New Hermiston business provides a ‘voice of reason’ By JADE MCDOWELL NEWS EDITOR Contributed photo by Hermiston School District Sandstone Middle School students rehearse. Sandstone Middle School students to perform at Carnegie Hall HERMISTON HERALD Sandstone Middle School choir students will get a memorable experience next fall as they travel to New York City to perform at Car- negie Hall. Music teacher Dan Allen was recently notifi ed that his students had been invited to participate in a perfor- mance of “The Holiday Music of Mary Lynn Light- foot” as part of the Distin- guished Concerts Interna- tional New York Concert Series, according to a news release from Hermiston School District. The performance will take place on Nov. 30 in the Isaac Stern Audito- rium at Carnegie Hall, with Mary Lynn Lightfoot as composer-in-residence. According to the district, the students who partici- pate will work with profes- sional musicians and solo- ists, participate in two-half days of rehearsals and clin- ics, and perform with choirs from around the country. In a statement, Allen said it would be an “incredible opportunity” for Hermiston students. “I had heard of school music programs getting invited to perform at Car- negie Hall, but I never expected it would happen to us,” he said. “The young musicians in this community have worked so hard to receive this honor, and they will for- ever be able to say that they have performed on Ameri- ca’s most prestigious stage.” The wind was gusting as twin sisters Shalena Myers and Jolene Pooley cut the ribbon on their new busi- ness on Thursday after- noon, but it didn’t dampen their excitement. The sisters will serve as program directors for Voice of Reason, an agency pro- viding job training, employ- ment support and commu- nity living support to adults with intellectual and devel- opmental disabilities. Myers said they will provide training, such as résumé writing and inter- viewing for a job, but a big focus of Voice of Rea- son will be helping clients stay in their job once they get one. “Any person can go out and get that job, but the real piece of that is reten- tion — helping them keep that job and be indepen- dent,” she said. They can also provide living support, such as tak- ing someone to the grocery store or out to a movie. Myers comes to the job with 11 years of experi- ence at a provider agency, including as a program Staff photo by Jade McDowell Shalena Myers and Jolene Pooley, center, prepare to cut a ceremonial ribbon in front of their new business, Voice of Reason, on Thursday.
