Hamley Giving Tree sees every tag plucked from its branches despite COVID-19

PENDLETON — Despite the challenges of the coronavirus pandemic, The Giving Tree at Hamley Western Store in Pendleton saw every tag plucked from its branches this year. The giving tree, in its 20th year, is a collaboration between local elementary schools, the Pendleton Early Learning Center, the Umatilla County Care Program and the Department of Human Services. The groups submit referrals, or “wish lists” to the tree, and after community participants take those referrals and gather the gifts, the gifts are provided to at-risk children and their families. “Every request is hopefully going to be filled this year,” said Heidi Zeigler, from Umatilla County Health and Human Services, who has worked with the giving tree for about 12 years.

Wildhorse lights up for locals

MISSION — Wildhorse Resort & Casino may be quieter than usual, but the staff is putting extra effort into the resort’s holiday light display this year in order to bring cheer to the community and brighten spirits for the holidays. “We can all use an extra reason to smile these days,” acknowledged Mary Liberty-Traughber, public relations manager at Wildhorse, in a press release. The goal is to bring something bright and beautiful to people in the community.” The outdoor lights can be easily viewed from a car as you circle through the casino parking lot and down Market Road. And inside, lights and decorations can be found in the casino and food court. Families can enter at the FunPlex doors and view the displays in the common area.
