By: Carol MichaelIt was out of the tower and on

the run in Boardman, Saturday,March 29 at Sam Boardman El-ementary School. MissoulaChildren’s Theater and 40 local stu-dents presented an original musi-cal adaptation of RAPUNZEL.

Supportive friends and foeshelped Rapunzel escape from thetowering imprisonment of MadameGothel. Playing the title character,Rapunzel, were Dixie Gonzales andLina Dunn. Aaron Lester andKayden Kendrick played thePrince. Rapunzel’s Parents wereplayed by Joshua Gray and DakotaYoung. Larissa Jones played Ma-dame Gothel.

This Rapunzel story took placein the French Countryside. GardenSpies “Ears” of Corn, DesiraeKlaviter and Mary Hammond; Po-tato “Eyes” Stephanie Fudala, re-ported all garden comings and go-ings back to Madame Gothel.

Frenchy, played by Tour Direc-tor Steven Thomas, and hisfriends, the Wood Elves, Alax Dunn,Hannah Lawson, Carolyn Ginther,Natalie DeLaCruz, Mary Sollman,McKenna Kendrick, Olivia Lawsonand Lisa Ginther did their best to

help Rapunzel escape the grasp ofMadame Gothel. The lost Prince,and Rapunzel’s Unicorns friends,Maria Schneider and AlexisPartlow, teamed up to get Rapunzeldown from the tower.

Meanwhile fearful Ogres IanPowell, Paola Porras, FaithAcheson and Joshua Wilson en-couraged the garden MushroomsElaina Salgado, Yelena Bernal,Aunika Partlow, Dylan Young,Emma Lester, and Mikayla Powellto grow, grow, grow!. Gus the FunGuy mushroom was played byMichael Wilson

Somehow, the Billy GoatsGruff, Hannah Wilson, AbigailProsser, Hailey Daltoso got intothe garden. Strangely, ThreeBears: Karensa Jones, LeticiaBernal, and Finnegan Lawson ac-companied by Matthew Hammondas Bucky the Beaver appeared inthe garden as well. A Troll, playedby Paden Williams, came out fromunder his bridge to trickRapunzel’s parents; Billy Goats,Bears, Beaver into mistaking theiridentities.

At this point, the Bears and Bea-ver confused Rapunzel withGoldilocks and chased her through

the forest. Madame Gothel apolo-gized for her bullying ways andvowed to be nicer in the future. Inshort, Rapunzel and the cast told asilly tale of personal triumph andfriendship. Missoula Directors alsopresented 3 free workshops ontheater skills and self confidenceduring the week.

Rehearsal and Performance Ac-companist was Connie McElrath.Community Coordinator was An-gela Schneider. John & KatieDawson, Walt & Connie McElrathhosted Missoula Theater Direc-tors Steven Thomas and GraceMcGeoch during the week. HannaPayne served as Lighting Direc-tor throughout the week. MorrowCo. School District Principal MattMatz provided workshop, re-hearsal and performance space.Each of the two Rapunzel perfor-mances played to a packed house.North Morrow Community Foun-dation, workshop and performancesponsors, appreciated the pres-ence of cast family and friends, aswell as general community mem-bers in the audience. “Youth al-ways need applause for their ef-forts, and it is great when cast rela-tives and interested public arepresent,.” said a NMCF Director.

Bella Vista Estates residents purchase manufactured home parkBoardman, OR (March 14, 2014) —Community and Shelter AssistanceCorporation (CASA of Oregon) ispleased to announce that on Janu-ary 31, 2014, residents of the 127-space Desert Springs Mobile HomePark, a manufactured housing com-munity in Boardman, Oregon, com-pleted the purchase of their com-munity.

By establishing the Bella VistaEstates Cooperative, residentswere able to access financing fromBanner Bank, Rural CommunityAssistance Corporation and CASAof Oregon. Lewis & Clark LawSchool’s Small Business LegalClinic provided legal expertise. Oneof the largest resident-owned com-munities converted to date in Or-egon, the preservation of BellaVista Estates ensures that resi-dents, many of whom are agricul-tural workers in the area, are ableto enjoy economic security andstability.

“We are excited to accomplishthis goal for the benefit of thehardworking families in our manu-factured housing community. Theycan rest assured that affordablehousing will always be availablenear their places of work”, saidClarissa Jimenez, Interim BoardSecretary of Bella Vista Estates

Cooperative.CASA of Oregon will continue

to provide technical assistance tothe Cooperative, delivering man-agement training and offering op-erational support.

The conversion follows on theheels of six other resident-ownedcommunities that CASA of Oregonhas assisted – HorizonHomeowners Cooperative inMcMinnville, Oregon; Green Pas-tures Senior Cooperative inRedmond, Oregon; SaundersCreek Homeowners Cooperative inGold Beach, Oregon; Vida Lea Com-munity Cooperative in Leaburg,Oregon; Clackamas River Commu-nity Cooperative in Clackamas,Oregon and West-Side Pines Co-operative in Bend, Oregon.

Resident ownership occurswhen owners of manufacturedhomes form a non-profit member-ship association to purchase theircommunity when it becomes avail-able for sale. Without resident own-ership, homeowners risk evictionwhen a community is sold to a newowner who may convert the landto other uses, or impose higher landrents over which the homeownershave no control.

In May 2008, CASA of Oregonbecame one of nine Certified Tech-

nical Assistance Providers(CTAPs) under the national ROCUSA network. As a member of theROC USA Network, CASA of Or-egon delivers pre- and post-pur-chase technical assistance andsupport in securing financing tohelp manufactured homeownersbuy their communities and securetheir economic futures through resi-dent ownership.——————

CASA of Oregon’s mission isto develop affordable housing, pro-grams and facilities that promotethe quality of life and self-suffi-ciency of farm workers and otherlow-income populations through-out the state of Oregon. Since itsinception in 1988, CASA, a 501(c)3organization, has developed 35multi-housing projects totalingnearly 1,207 units of housing forfarm workers and their families, withanother 66 units under develop-ment. The organization has com-pleted eight community facilityprojects, built eight single familyhomes, preserved 51 units in expir-ing-use projects and is looking topreserve another 84 units. In 2000,CASA was certified by the US Trea-sury as a Community DevelopmentFinancial Institution and has sinceestablished a $6.4 million loan fund

for predevelopment, constructionand permanent financing. In thesame year, CASA started the Val-ley Individual Development Ac-count (VIDA) Program, which isnow a collaborative of 60 non-profit organizations and four affili-ates throughout Oregon that offersIndividual Development Accountsto low-income individuals. CASA’sManufactured Housing Coopera-tive Development program has nowconverted six Oregon manufac-tured home communities into resi-dent-owned communities.www.casaoforegon.org

Sustainable gardeningThe Oregon State University

Extension Service encourages sus-tainable gardening practices.Preventative pest management isemphasized over reactive pest con-trol. Identify and monitor problemsbefore acting and opt for the leasttoxic approach that will remedy theproblem. The conservation of bio-logical control agents (predators,parasitoids) should be favoredover chemical controls.

Use chemical controls onlywhen necessary and only afterthoroughly reading the pesticidelabel. First consider cultural, thenphysical and biological controls.Choose the least-toxic options (in-secticidal soaps, horticultural oils,botanical insecticides, and organicand synthetic pesticides — whenused judiciously).Planning· Write in your garden journalthroughout the growing season.· Prepare garden soil for springplanting. Incorporate generousamounts of organic materials andother amendments, using the re-sults of a soil analysis as a guide.· Prepare raised beds in areaswhere cold soils and poor drain-age are a continuing problem. In-corporate generous amounts (atleast 2 inches) of organic materi-als.· Use a soil thermometer to helpyou know when to plant veg-etables. When the soil is consis-

tently above 60 degrees Farenheit,some warm season vegetables(beans, sweet corn) can be planted.Maintenance and Clean Up· Allow foliage of spring-flower-ing bulbs to brown and die downbefore removing.· Apply commercial fertilizers,manure, or compost to cane, bush(gooseberries, currants, and blue-berries), and trailing berries.· Place compost or well decom-posed manure around perennialvegetables, such as asparagus andrhubarb.· Cut back ornamental grasses toa few inches above the ground, inearly spring.· Cover transplants to protectagainst late spring frosts.· Optimum time to fertilize lawns.Apply 1 pound nitrogen per 1,000square feet of lawn. Reduce risksof run-off into local waterways bynot fertilizing just prior to rain, andnot over-irrigating so that waterruns off of lawn and onto sidewalkor street.

Plant gladioli, hardy transplantsof alyssum, phlox, and marigolds,if weather and soil conditions per-mit.It’s a great time to start a vegetablegarden. Among the vegetables youcan plant, consider:· Central Oregon and higher el-evations of eastern Oregon (lateApril): Peas, radishes, lettuce, spin-ach, and turnips.· Columbia and Snake River val-

leys, Ontario: Snap and limabeans, beets, broccoli, Brusselssprouts, cabbage, carrots, cauli-flower, chard, chives, sweet corn,slicing and pickling cucumbers,kohlrabi, leeks, lettuce, onion sets,parsnips, peas, potatoes, pump-kins, radishes, rhubarb, rutabagas,summer and winter squash, andturnips.

Clean up hiding places forslugs, sowbugs and millipedes.Least toxic management options forslugs include barriers and traps.Baits are also available for slugcontrol; use caution around pets.Read and follow all label directionsprior to using baits or any otherchemical control.Monitor strawberries for spittle-bugs and aphids; if present, washoff with water or use insecticidalsoap as a contact spray. Follow la-bel directions.

If necessary, spray apples andpears when buds appear for scab.See Managing Diseases and In-sects in Home Orchards (PDF - EC631).

Cut and remove weeds near thegarden to remove potentialsources of plant disease.Use floating row covers to keepinsects such as beet leaf miners,cabbage maggot adult flies, andcarrot rust flies away from suscep-tible crops.Help prevent damping off of seed-lings by providing adequate ven-tilation.
