Your Sunday review of Malheur County news you might have missed

Good morning.

Before we get to the news, allow me to take a moment to explain why we rely so much on subscribers.

The Enterprise isn’t part of a big corporate organization with deep pockets. We’re a family business that works to pay decent wages and provide the community a vital service.

No one else keeps as close an eye on public officials and we don’t let government push us around. We’ll pursue the truth and sometimes that takes time, sometimes that means not taking “no” for an answer when our journalists seek information.

And we also take you to places and introduce you to people you might not otherwise hear about.

The team at the Enterprise can do that because so many of you are subscribers, that you see value in quality news you can trust. If you don’t subscribe already, please do. Every subscriber, every dollar counts.

For $7.50 a month, you can get our digital service and keep up every day with news that is most important to you. The process is secure and takes just a couple of moments. Ready? Go HERE – and thank you!
