What’s new in Malheur County from the Enterprise

Good morning.

Jim Maret leads a double life in Nyssa.

By day, he’s city manager for Nyssa.

Other times, he volunteers as a reserve officer for the Nyssa Police Department.

Earlier this week, Maret was honored for saving a life while on duty. Reporter Pat Caldwell will have all the details.

And if you and your family are looking for an interesting way to spend time this weekend, head to Four Rivers Cultural Center. The event is the Malheur Maker Faire and it’s unlike anything Malheur County has seen. The free public fair is billed as “the greatest show-and-tell on earth” and will run from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
