Central Oregon's Council on Aging anticipates serving more than 500 seniors during 6 upcoming seasonal lunches across Deschutes, Jefferson, and Crook counties. Executive Director Susan Rotella says the events are much more than just a meal. They provide comraderie, a sense of community and holiday cheer for seniors who many not have family in the area. Close to 1/5 of all Central Oregon residents are seniors over 60 and that number will climb to 1/3 by 2050. Rotella says the next generation will have to face new challenges as the demographics shift in Central Oregon. Rising costs for senior services like healthcare, housing and assisted living facilities presents new challenges as the population ages. 

 

 

The lunches include seasonal fare and decor, music, raffles and local guest speakers. They are free for anyone over 60 and a small fee is required for younger guests. You can attend or volunteer at any of the upcoming lunches:

 

La Pine: Nov. 21 at La Pine Senior Center, 16450 Victory Way

 

Bend: Dec. 5 at the Council On Aging Community Dining Hall, 1036 ND 5th St., Bend

SALEM, OR -- Oregon is no longer a leader in recycling and waste reduction. A new study from the Environment Oregon Research and Policy Center indicates Oregon's recycling efforts continue to slide. State Director Celeste Meiffren-Swango says the latest data shows the recycling rate has dropped 4.8% since 2014.  And she says China's actions won't help because they stopped accepting American waste due to contamination. Meiffren-Swango says Oregon needs a plan to keep waste out of the environment. They're calling for a state comprehensive plan to deal with waste- especially plastics that are choking the recycling system.

SALEM, OR -- Deschutes County District Attorney John Hummel told the state parole board in salem yesterday he believes Mark James Wilson is capable of rehabilitation. Wilson was convicted in the double murder of 53-year old Rod Houser and his 49-year old wife Lois during a home robbery in 1987. The Oregonian reports Wilson was 18 when he shot Rod Houser 20 times. Co-defendant Randy Guzek shot Lois Houser three times. The question before the parole board is whether the now 50 year old Wilson is capable of rehabilitation. Hummel told the parole board, “Mark Wilson has convinced me he is.” The brother of Rod Houser, Doug Houser said Hummell does not speak for his family and called him an embarrassment to Deschutes county. Houser urged the parole board to listen instead to Ron Brown. It was Brown, now Clatsolp County D.A. who prosecuted Wilson. Brown said Wilson and Guzek were there to specifically kill the Housers. He told the parole board Wilson tried minimize the crime, claiming it was a burglary gone bad. Brown said Wilson’s distortion of the truth should raise questions about his rehabilitation. It may take a month for the parole board to make a ruling.
