« DATES
72 To Remember. . .
The overnight camping in the
m a jo rity
of Oregon's State
Parks w ill end on November 4,
following a season which saw a
slight drop in attendance, it was
announced by D avid G Talbot,
superintendent of parks
The camping season usually
extends from M ay through Oc­
tober, but w eather can cause a
variation in closing dates This is
especially true in the high al
titudes of Central and Eastern
Oregon where cold weather can
m ake an ea rlier closing date
advisable
There are seven overnight
cam p s w hich re m a in open
throughout the year, with six of
them located along the Oregon
Coast and the other in South
western Oregon 12 miles south of
Grants Pass These parks are
Fort Stevens
Cap«1 Lookout.
B e v e rly B e ac h . Jessie M
H o n eym an , B u lla rd s B each,
H arris Beach and Valley of the
Rogue.
As a rule, the State Parks are
never closed to the public for day
use but in high altitudes snow
and freezing w eather may close
access to some areas or require
draining w ater systems and
closing restrooms
The figures for overnight
camping use for the three
popular vacation months of
June. July and August showed
an overall drop of 5.59 percent
from the previous year The
figures for June show a drop of
3.86 percent, July down 6.7
percent and August down 5.5 p e r­

Needs are being identified and
priorities are being established
for the Senior Citizens of Colum
bia County according to Robert
Hunt. Chairm an of the Task
Force on Aging for Columbia
County.
Hunt along with various sub
committees and representatives
of the C la c k a m a s -C o lu m b ia
Washington Counties' Agency on
Aging have tentatively identified
transportation as the single
greatest need for Senior Citizens
within the County.
‘Without adequate transpor
tat ion senior citizens are unable
to avail themselves to the other
services that are available or
m ay be needed within the coun
ty ." Hunt said
The Task Force was formed to
research and identify needs of
the Senior Citizens along with
d e te rm in in g w hat resources
presently exist and what re ­
sources for the elderly m ay be
needed According to Hunt it is
important that all available local
resources are utilized before
establishing new resources
“ It is equally important that
existing resources realize that
Senior Citizens have needs and
problems that are just as real
istic as other residents of the
county," Hunt said
“ Senior Citizens are the most
neglected and forgotten group in
the nation today.” Hunt said He
went on to explain that the
Senior Citizens of today were the
active and contributing taxpay­
ers of yesterday who cannot be
ignored by the active citizens of
today
“ Local officials have an ob­
ligation to recognize not only the
contributions the Senior Citizens
have made to the county but to
assure the Senior Citizens that
the County has not forgotten
th em ,’ Hunt said
In addition to the transporta
tion com m ittee headed by Doro
thy Churchill, other com m ittee
chairm en include Norm Bar
m ier, Em ploym ent. Manpower
and Incom e; Amanda J Karn
m er. Alternatives to Institution
alization and Legal Aid. Doris
Dim an. Retirem ent Roles and
Activities. Bob Stevens, Health
and N utrition; and Nick Fe-
dertci. Housing T e m e W elle is
