<DIV>The first edition of Heritage Programs' Cultural Heritage Courier for<BR>2009 is now posted on our website for your reading pleasure. It's a more<BR>compact issue this time; however, the cover story written by historian<BR>Ian Johnson, one of SHPO's National Register and Survey coordinators, is<BR>an in-depth piece on architecture of the "recent past." You'll see more<BR>of his coverage on this subject in subsequent issues of the Courier.<BR>Also, look for an article that discusses the new "Main Street" program.<BR>The rest of this issue is filled with great information and updates<BR>relating to the work done by Heritage Programs of the Oregon Parks and<BR>Recreation Department.</DIV>

<DIV>You can find the link to the Courier at <A href="http://www.oregonheritage.org">www.oregonheritage.org</A> (under<BR>"News and Events," right side of page), and since there are only two<BR>days remaining to take the OPRD-Heritage Programs web site improvement<BR>survey, you will see its link on our home page as well (top center of<BR>the page). We hope you'll get a chance to provide us with your valuable<BR>input. <BR></DIV></BODY></HTML>
