Photo by Joan Rowe 1 Chiloquin FCE – We are a part of The Oregon Association for Family and Community Education. Our local community service is to raise funds for Chiloquin High School and Home School children who are headed to college. We raise these funds and have fun doing it. Our monthly meetings consist of a program provided by either the National Association for Family and Community Education, OSU Extension Service or one written by FCE members, a business meeting and a potluck lunch. If you are interested in getting more involved in your community in a relaxing friendly way, meeting some of your neighbors and getting to know more about this area, please come by and check us out. We meet on the 2nd Wednesday at 10am, usually at the Chiloquin Christian Center Community Room, but sometimes it’s at member’s homes or a field trip. You can call Sandie Bolyard (541-892-2336) or Judy Pedder (541-783-3227). We look forward to meeting you. El Rodeo Restaurant has new hours: Open Tues-Sat 11 am – 8 pm Closed Sunday and Monday No longer serving breakfast. The Klamath and Western Railroad will be having its annual PUMPKIN EXPRESS on Saturday, October 21st and 28th from 10 AM to 3 PM. Trains rides are free to the public. Donations are appreciated. There will be pumpkins for sale for $3.00 at the pumkin patch. The North Entrance Road at Crater Lake National Park has re-opened. But why was it closed for almost a week? Fire crews have been strengthening the road as a fire break by "chipping." This difficult work involved many fire fighters and lots of heavy equipment on the road. Crews began by marking protected trees like whitebark pines and clearing duff from them to shelter them from fire. Other dead and downed wood was cleared from the area near the road. Standing trees of non-protected species were limbed close to the ground to prevent the rapid spread of fire up single trees. The wood was then chipped for easier removal. From the Herald & News: CHILOQUIN — Sunday, at 12:03 a.m., 911 dispatch received reports of a shooting on the bridge in Chiloquin. Law enforcement response located the deceased victim on the bridge over the Williamson River in downtown Chiloquin. Family was contacted and informed of the tragedy. The victim was Arnie Lee Eggsman, 32 years old, of Chiloquin. 2 The Major Crime Team was activated. Witness statements led to identification of suspects. Suspects are currently at large. The Oregon State Police, Klamath County Sheriff’s Office, Klamath Falls City Police Department, Klamath Community Corrections and Klamath Juvenile Department are all involved in the on- going investigation. Yet another long, intense weekend for those who protect and serve our community. Deepest sympathy is extended to the Eggsman family, the press release from Klamath County District Attorney Eve Costello said. Richard Kopczak Richard Raymond Kopczak passed away on Sept. 4, 2017, at his home in Chiloquin, Ore. Close friends were with him at the time of his passing. He had been under medical care for some time from complications of diabetes. He was born Sept. 25, 1933, in Ambridge, Pa. He was the fourth child of Joseph J. Sr. and Mary F. (Bienia) Kopczak. In addition to his parents, he was predeceased by his sisters, Marie and Florence K. Andreatta. He is survived by his brothers, Joseph J. Jr. of Queensbury, N.Y., and Robert of Reno, Nev. He is also survived by many cousins, nieces and nephews. He served in the U.S. Army in his 20s as a military policeman. He received many special awards for his skills as a marksman. After his discharge from the Army, he ran a sporting goods store for several years in Southern California. Richard reminded us often that we "must have a purpose in life." He practiced this as best he could by establishing "the best little bookstore between San Francisco and Seattle" - The Chiloquin Book Store and Art Center. Special thanks to Mary Anna Napier and Dawn Wagner for attending to Richard's personal care for the past many months. Also, Klamath Hospice nurses and aides and other local friends, including Dean Wagner, Gorden Herron, Mike Edsberg and Father Abraham from Mount Carmel Church, who have helped in his care and personal support in the past few years. A vigil service will be at 7 p.m. Friday, Sept. 22, in Our Lady of Mount Carmel Catholic Church. The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass will be celebrated for Richard at 10 a.m. Saturday, Sept. 23, preceded by The Most Holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary at 9:30 a.m. A luncheon reception in the church hall will follow. Interment will be at the Fort Klamath Cemetery following the reception. http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/heraldandnews/obituary.aspx?n=richard-kopczak&pid=186681469 Remembering Richard When I lived in San Francisco in the 1970s I discovered the Chiloquin area. As an ornithologist and fly fisherman I felt immediately at home at the Williamson River and Agency Lake. Whenever I could steal a free weekend or a short vacation, I travelled to what was to become “my Chiloquin”. Still, when I was offered a partnership in a consultant firm in Switzerland I accepted and returned to live in Europe – soon to get married as well. However, at the first best opportunity I took my wife Ruth on a long vacation to the US ending up in a small rental house in Chiloquin. Besides the successful fishing and the resulting cooking experiences, we spent a lot of time in Richard’s library. For a long time we would spend two month per year in the area, now every second year. We became very close friends with Richard, of course spending a lot of time in his shop buying books like crazy, but also having 3 him often over for dinner. He was one of those rare people without any pretenses, direct yet tactful, honest yet a smart, careful tactician when discussing controversial subjects. In short: It was a pleasure to be with him, to talk about life and our personal histories. Richard was not a man who had enjoyed a so-called “smooth” childhood and youth. Later he worked in all kinds of different jobs and professions, travelling bumpy roads in both his professional and personal life. But all that did not weaken his spirit, rather his keen, practical intelligence made him stronger, wiser and more determined to do something he really liked and wanted to do. Quite surprising, in fact, that a person with that kind of background was or became so fascinated with books. Developing his library and 2nd hand book shop was indeed an amazing, marvelous and courageous “tour de force”. But that huge endeavor, too, was to become a pretty tough road. Running such a truly unique place that caters to people who want to get more out of life than watching television soaps is not an easy job and a pretty shaky business indeed, especially in an out-of-the-way place like Chiloquin. For who expects an unbelievable shop like that in a small, modest town, away from any large city with a book-hungry populace? But Richard knew what he was doing. He faced that reality remaining stubbornly determined to do what he really wanted to do, often repeating to us: “This is my mission.” Well, our dear friend Richard has passed away. He did with his life what not all of us are courageous enough to do. We will miss him terribly. However, what he called “his mission” is still there, at least physically speaking. May whoever continues to work that shop have the know-how and the tenacity to keep the shop alive and make it prosper. To be successful, though, additional, modern marketing methods will be required. But that is up to those who have taken over our beloved bookshop. Whenever Ruth and I will be staying in the area and enter the shop we will literally feel Richard’s presence. It will always remain Richard’s shop. Yes, we will always remember him, honor him, and respect him. And here, at home in Switzerland, in our 5000-book library, almost 500 books from Richard’s shop will make this even easier.

    The Economic, Environmental, and Social Benefits of Geothermal Use in Oregon Andrew Chiasson Geo‐Heat Center Oregon Institute of Technology October 2011 Oregon has a long and rich history of utilization of its geothermal resources. Today, the documented direct uses of geothermal waters are related to space and district heating, snow‐ melting, spas and resorts, aquaculture, greenhouses, and agribusiness. The Geo‐Heat Center estimates that there are over 600 direct use applications in Oregon, not including undeveloped hot springs. Boyd (2007) and Sifford (2010) provide excellent summaries of geothermal energy uses in Oregon, some of which are no longer operational, and others that have expanded their use. The first permanent geothermal power plant in Oregon was installed Figure 1. Physiographic regions of Oregon at the Oregon Institute of Technology Campus in (reproduced from graphic by Elizabeth L.
