Quilters warm hearts at youth facility A

good quilt will last a lifetime and more, providing familiar warmth and comfort to its owners. Combine that with the spirit of holiday giving and you’ve found the perfect gift. Around a dozen members of the Tillamook County Quilters Guild pulled together to make six beautiful, unique quilts that were donated to the Tillamook Youth Correctional Facility. The quilts will find their way into the hands of deserving young people under supervision or approaching departure. The project began around springtime, with the ladies working on the quilts as time allowed. The Guild meets monthly, so some work was done after meetings or in homes, a steady routine of cutting and sewing. When they were done they went to be longarmed. They took a while just getting onto the machine. The idea was credited to John Laurin, husband of Quilters Guild Treasurer Diane Laurin. John is a longtime volunteer with the Master Gardener Program at the youth

facility and spends a lot of time there. Facility officials spoke highly of John’s work and dedication. Diane and Quilters Guild President Lisa Wiley delivered the quilts to the facility, where they were warmly received by Tillamook Youth Correctional Facility Superintendent Tony Kornegay, Camp Tillamook Office Specialist 2 Deborah Westoby, and Camp Tillamook Director James Sapper. Wiley and Diane said the Guild chose the youth facility for a quilt donation project because it’s local, there is a clear need, and it’s a good group of people who they knew would appreciate the gifts. Sapper said in the business of developing young people, showing a connection to the community is valuable, particularly for those transitioning from the facility to society. “Kids who are troubled or who have a rocky past, they need to know that there’s other people out there who don’t even know

Tillamook County Shop with a Cop celebrates 15 years L

ocal law enforcement went shopping with kids for the 15th year at the Tillamook Fred Meyer on Saturday, Dec. 21. The aim of the Shop with a Cop program is to build trust and rapport

between the children in the area and law enforcement. “We are so excited to able to celebrate this as our 15th year,” Tillamook Police Chief Terry Wright said in a press release. “Over the years, we

have served so many children in need. We are now serving children who their parents are past participants.” The program originally began in 1978 in Las Vegas, Nevada. It was designed

to give children who have experienced a negative contact with law enforcement a chance to purchase Christmas gifts for themselves and family members. That might include being removed from

home, a death investigation or other unpleasant encounters. It also serves to enhance the image of the police in the eyes of those children. The program has reportedly been a great success in Tillamook

County and has become an annual tradition Tillamook law enforcement and Fred Meyer. The goal is to have around

Santa’s Toy Bag: A community effort for those in need Cody Mann headlightnews@countrymedia.net

illamook Fire District and its Volunteer Firefighter Association, Tillamook Creamery and Fred Meyer joined forces with the Tillamook Ecumenical Council Christmas Basket Program again this year to bring toys and joy to those in need. All the toys and gifts donated go to Tillamook-area families. Fire Chief Daron Bement thanked Fred

Meyer and others for supporting the effort to reach the public and gather donations and toys. Tillamook Creamery holds its own internal toy drive and makes a large donation of gifts on behalf of the company and employees. This year, the local Creamery employees donate around 160 toys in Tillamook alone. Tillamook Creamery has been participating in holiday giving opportunities for several years. The company changed it up about seven years ago to the toy drive in support of the Tillamook

Fire’s Santa’s Bag Toy Drive efforts. Including this year’s 160, more than 900 toys have been donated to local kids by the Creamery, more than 700 in Tillamook specifically. The toy drive is all about what’s best for children, whether that’s Legos, RC cars, bicycles, stuffed toys, dolls – this year saw cash turned into gift cards as well as a few donated Kindles and other items for the more mature age groups,

day Adventist Church and a catholic church. This is the second year Les Schwab has done the drive with the hospital but has held a Holiday Drive for many years. “The hospital is kind of a unique one,” said Les Schwab Manager Dane Lawrence. Les Schwab also took cash donations at the store. Whatever donations they receive throughout the season, they match it, go to Fred Meyer and purchase stuffed animals, teddy bears and blankets. They put the items in ambulances or have them for newborns. Many of these items go to children and newborns at the hospital. Lawrence said the turnout of donations this year was really good. Les Schwab collected about 15 bags of toys and collected $841 and went above the match. “We thought this would be a way to help the families, not necessarily just the patient or the kid,” Lawrence said. The Young Pros of Tillamook also did their own toy drive and dropped off four bags and a cash donation to Les Schwab.

“They were a big part of this as well,” Lawrence said of the Young Pros. Les Schwab delivered the donations toys to Adventist Health at 9 a.m. Wednesday, Dec. 18. They also fully funded Adventist Health’s Reach Out and Read Program for 2020, as well as for the remainder of 2019. Lawrence said the hospital is one that gets overlooked during the holidays. “It’s important to give back to a community that supports us throughout the year,” Lawrence said. They delivered the check for the Reach Out and Read Program to the hospital on Friday, Dec. 20, for $1,050. “It’s pretty amazing what this town does for kids,” Lawrence said. “We usually give to the Catholic church, but they were already full.” Lawrence said the church already had all the toys they needed before they could get to them, so they were able to disperse them out. “It’s really amazing how this community kind of pulls together, especially around the holidays, and it’s pretty cool to be a part of it,”

Appellants voice concerns over Tierra Del Mar cable Hilary Dorsey headlightreporter@ countrymedia.net The Tillamook County Board of Commissioners held the first of two public hearings on Dec. 9 at the Tillamook County Courthouse, to discuss an appeal of the planning commission’s similar use determination and decision to approve the installation of

the Jupiter Submarine Cable System. The fiber optic cable system and landing site would be on a property zoned rural residential two-acre, located within the Tierra Del Mar area north of the Pacific City/ Woods unincorporated community and designated as Tax Lot 3200. The subject property is accessed via Sandlake Road, a county road, and is located

within the Tierra Del Mar area north of the Pacific City/Woods Unincorporated Community. The applicant and property owner are Edge Cable Holdings. Joel Stevens, lawyer for Tillamook County, said there were four appeals: Lynnae Ruttledge, Edmund Ruttledge, Oregon Coast Alliance and Michael Kittell. Sarah Absher, director of Redeem for

community development, said a decision and the order by the BOCC must be signed before Jan. 19. She also said that it is required that the BOCC hold two hearings on this project. Arguments state that the cable system is not a public utility, and therefore, not similar use. Another argument was that since it is not regulated like regular utilities, it is not a public utility, and that drilling should not be allowed on a residential lot. The community has been very vocal in their opposition. There was a meeting with the public, Rep. David Gomberg (D-Otis) and Facebook in August. Another argument asked who would be there to ensure there would be no damage to private property. Many arguments said that the tie vote, made at the November planning commission meeting, should have resulted in a failed conditional use. “The planning commission felt that [similar use determination] could be looked at multiple ways,” Absher said. “There were some that felt that because it didn’t meet the definition of a public utility, that it could not be considered to be similar.” The planning commission voted in majority of similar use by a vote of 5-2 and condition use. Absher said the Board will have to decide whether the

planning commission made a correct similar use determination or not. A geotechnical report was required of the applicant to look at potential impacts. There had been concerns from the public of the report’s adequacy. The applicant would be required to get a permit to drill. Noise has also been a significant concern. The construction part of the project is the most intrusive part. “There is conversation in the appeal that the applicant has not been a community partner as what was promised,” Absher said. Commissioner Mary Faith Bell asked Absher to explain the process after the tie vote. Absher said there was no guidance in the bylaws about the outcome after a tie vote. “How is development allowed on a primary dune?” Bell asked. Absher said that when the comprehension plan was developed, it was allowed because development was already there. Absher went on to say that the project has to be consistent with the goals and policies of the comprehension plan but that there is nothing that says it has to be met. Bell asked if this is the only fiber optic cable that would come in. Absher said that no future cable installation would take place. Any future cable installation proposals would have to go through the same

process. Lynnae Ruttledge, a citizen of Tierra Del Mar, was the first appellant to speak. She and her husband have been homeowners there since 1992. “It’s really an honor to be here to provide testimony,” Lynnae said. “I actually represent a group of nine Tierra Del Mar residents who all have standing. They’re community supporters.” She said there are issues that need to be heard and that the project brings unwanted and unneeded attention. This proposed project is ill-conceived. Lynnae said there is no benefit to Tierra Del Mar from this project but there are environment consequences. She believes the conditional use criteria are not met. Tierra Del Mar, like Tillamook, is a community. She said the community was not included in discussions of the project. Lynnae said good neighbors are people, not a vault. She said the project cannot be consistent with Goal 1 of the comprehension plan. She is concerned about construction. Residential construction does not require a frack out plan, yet this project does. The Department of Environment Quality requires an adequate water site, as well as silt fencing. The applicant has proposed to truck in their own water, Absher said. Lynnae asked where the workers are going to park and pointed out that all of the equipment will have to be transported to the site. She also said the garbage truck is usually the heaviest truck that goes on Sandlake Road. Bell asked how Lynnae expects safety to be compromised. Lynnae responded and said vacant lots could be applied for future cable landings. This is viewed as a safety risk. The workers have to wear masks during construction. The people of Tierra Del Mar don’t have cellphone service. If something happens on the lot, they cannot do anything. Bell asked Lynnae to talk more about the lot being densely developed. Lynnae said the construction is being done in an area where people will see, hear and feel it. There won’t be the same impacts after construction. There will occasionally be people doing maintenance work. Lynnae said there is a risk of damage to the septic sys-

USDA approves loan for Tillamook electricity infrastructure Sens. Jeff Merkley and Ron Wyden of Oregon have announced the Tillamook People’s Utility District (PUD) received a 30-year loan of over $42.5 million from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Electric Infrastructure Loan and Loan Guarantee Program for critical line expansion and improvement. A PUD spokeswoman said the figure is actually $36 million. “This loan will help ensure that Tillamook’s electricity needs are met for years to come and help hundreds of Oregonians gain access to new lines,” said Merkley, the top Democrat on the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee for Agriculture and Rural Development, which oversees the USDA. “That’s a big win for the community, and I will continue to do everything I can to identify opportunities to support the growth, jobs, and infrastructure upgrades our families need to thrive.”

“These resources to add electric transmission lines and improve existing lines will be a big plus for quality of life and jobs in the Tillamook community,” Wyden said. “This investment in the Tillamook People’s Utility spotlights well how the federal government can help rural Oregon build on its strengths to grow for generations to come.” Tillamook PUD serves more than 21,000 Oregonians with 1,200 miles of line. The loan will reportedly fund 10 new line miles, improve 231 miles of distribution line, and provide service to 600 new consumers. In addition, this loan will finance installation of nine new miles of transmission and a new headquarters facility to efficiently serve the community’s electricity demands. Joanna Stelzig, public relations manager for Tillamook PUD, said the actual amount being borrowed in connection with the construction

work plan approved by the board of directors earlier this year is $36 million. She said the loan is in the final approval stages but has not been closed. That is expected to happen in the coming weeks. Stelzig said the senators’ information was outdated and presented a figure from more than a year ago – the original preliminary approval amount requested. Due to delays with final approvals, Tillamook PUD borrowed $10 million earlier this year through a conventional loan process and reduced the rural utility service loan request to $36 million. The rural utility service funds will be allotted for specific capital projects. Stelzig noted that this was an approval to borrow. She said the PUD would not borrow the funds all at once, just as needed to fund capital investments during the next several years. Stelzig said the 10 miles of new line is a Tillamook to Oceanside

Power lines over Second Street in Tillamook.

transmission line and the new distribution line to be constructed for a new Oceanside substation to the Netarts community. She said the line upgrades will be occurring throughout the county and includ-

ed replacing aging underground cables and overhead lines. The 600 new customers reflect a projected growth rate across a period of four years based on historic growth data, according to Stelzig.

Employees located in the Portland Outpost office enjoy shopping for fun toys to bring the magic of the holidays to children in the Portland-metro area. Toys donated by TCCA employees in Portland benefit the KGW Great Toy Drive. Boardman employees enjoy finding creative ways to support their local community through adopting families, holiday meal boxes and toy drives. This year, they opted for a different approach and will provide

some much-needed gifts to foster children: warm coats. The TCCA Community Enrichment Committee is sponsoring a donation of warm coats, valued at approximately $3,000, for 100 foster children in Morrow and Umatilla counties through DHS Child Welfare. The coats will be delivered as Christmas gifts. Boardman location employees previously donated Christmas gifts to foster children, raising more than $800 this past year and allowing them to fulfill every item on the wish lists of five foster children.

those who are more easily lost in the shuffle despite their being just as much in need. “It is great to see so much community outreach,” Bement said. Most of the preparation is done by other volunteers so toys can be distributed to families that are in need during the holiday season. It’s not clear exactly when the toy drives first began, but the history goes back at least a decade or more. The Salvation Army and the local churches were involved in the beginning, though the event has been streamlined in recent years efficacy. Tillamook Fire Chaplin Mike Hanbeck has been instrumental in organizing the drive with the fire district and the volunteers as well as the collection and storage of the toys for the churches. “The drive is important for many reasons but most of all it is one small thing our district and volunteers can do to give back to our community and their families that have supported us and continue to support us into the future,” Bement said. Fire officials and staff stopped by the Creamery this past week to gather the toys and deliver them to the Ecumenical Society for the ‘shopping’ efforts by those who are sponsoring the Christmas baskets. A surplus of gifts was also delivered to Tides of Change, a local social support agency. “It’s a real community effort and we’re thrilled to play a role in making the holidays a little brighter for our local kids who are in need,” said Creamery spokeswoman Chandra Allen. She added that Tillamook County Creamery Association (TCCA) employees at all three of its locations have a tradition of working

be entertainment, music, food and merchant vendors, a photo booth, face painting and other activities in heated tents both on the Plaza and in front of the museum.

Big money for coastal communities, What the Linn County Lawsuit really means tribes included in spending bill David Yamamoto Tillamook County Commissioner

Oregon Sens. Jeff Merkley and Ron Wyden have announced key provisions in the 2020 spending bill funding commerce, justice and science, that will help rural communities across Oregon. The bill has passed both houses of Congress and now goes to the president to be signed into law. “I’m in every county every year, and across rural and coastal Oregon I hear about ways we can create jobs and strengthen communities,” said Merkley, who serves on the Senate Appropriations Committee. “This bill reflects a lot of those insights, from strengthening the coastal infrastructure to bolstering

salmon recovery efforts to more money for communities to hire police officers. I’ll keep using my seat on the Senate Appropriations Committee to make sure our small towns and rural communities have a voice when these decisions are being made.” “These federal resources will support rural Oregonians’ ability to provide for their families -- whether that’s fishing along the coast or farming hemp throughout our state,” Wyden said. “And this legislation also provides key assistance to work statewide that protects women from violence and helps tribal communities. I am proud to have teamed up to secure

SPEEDBUMP

funds for this package of important priorities.” Merkley is the only Oregon member of Congress from either chamber since Senator Mark Hatfield to serve on the Appropriations Committee, considered to be one of the most powerful on Capitol Hill. He joined the committee in 2013 so that Oregon would have a strong voice in decisions about the investments our nation should be making. Key elements of the legislation that will impact Oregon include: West Coast Groundfish Trawl Industry: The bill

After a monthlong trial, after hearing more than 100 hours of testimony and reviewing hundreds of exhibits, some going back to the early 1900’s, the Linn County jury deliberated for only a few hours before returning with a verdict. The jury determined that the State had indeed breached a long-standing contract with the 13 plaintiff forest trust counties and awarded full damages of $1.065B. Of the 15 Trust Counties, Clatsop County Commissioners opted out of the lawsuit, although the majority of their taxing districts decided to stay in and are entitled to $243M, and Judge Thomas McHill determined that Klamath County forests operate under a pre2001 forest management plan and removed them from the lawsuit. This left 13 Counties and 151 taxing districts found to be harmed and eligible for compensation. The 1941 Forest Acquisition Act created the idea of Greatest Permanent Value (GPV) to mean managing these forest trust lands to

Who are the Oregonians working for minimum wage? What are the characteristics of these Oregonians seeking to get by on the lowest wage? Nearly all Oregon minimum wage workers are adults, most are women, and most work full-time. And while the majority of Oregon’s minimum wage workers are white, a disproportionate number are people of color. This portrait of Oregon’s minimum wage workforce is an estimate of what that population will look like in 2022. In 2016, the Oregon legislature established a three-tier minimum wage structure and scheduled yearly increases through 2022. That year, the minimum wage will reach $14.75 in the Portland Metro area, $12.50 in non-urban counties, and $13.50 everywhere else. By then, more than 400,000 Oregonians will have seen their wages go up as

proportionate share of the minimum wage workforce. Approximately 55 percent of minimum wage workers are women, while women constitute 50 percent of the current population, and an estimated 48 percent of the total workforce. Industries that employ high proportions of minimum wage workers tend to be industries dominated by female workers. Case in point: restaurant and hotel workers. More than half of all workers in the Accommodations and Restaurant and Food Service industries are minimum wage workers, and about 56 percent of this industry’s workforce are women. Workers of color also make up a disproportionate share of the minimum wage workforce. Though people of color account for about 25 percent of Oregon’s population and 23 percent of the state’s projected workforce, they make up 37

a direct result of the legislation, representing one in five workers. The vast majority of minimum wage workers in Oregon are adults. More than 360,000 workers who will be impacted by the minimum wage increases put into law in 2016 are 20 or older, representing over 90 percent of the minimum wage workforce. Less than 10 percent of directly impacted workers are teenagers. More minimum wage workers are age 55 or older than are teenagers. The minimum wage affects the well-being of many Oregon children, as one in four minimum wage workers in Oregon are parents, and one in 10 is a single parent. In 2019, a minimum wage earner working full-time will make between $22,880 and $26,000, depending on what region of the state they live in.

return timber revenue to the Counties, taxing districts, and the Oregon Dept. of Forestry (ODF). It was in 1998 that the Board of Forestry decided to change the definition of GPV, and for the last 20 years, timber revenue suffered while the State instead prioritized going far above the mandates of the Federal Endangered Species Act and directing funds to increasing recreational opportunities. While these are admirable goals, these shortfalls over the last 20 years were being born entirely by the trust counties. What the jury found is that the trust counties have been shorted $1.065B to provide these additional services to all residents of Oregon and it is only fair that we be fairly compensated for these services. Over the last 20 years, trust counties have had to cut public safety, education, emergency services, road maintenance, healthcare, libraries, and other essential services. When it comes to natural resource-based industries, Tillamook County is blessed with dynamic timber, dairy, and fishing opportuni-

Oregon's Secretary of State shows flagrant disregard for citizens' rights in rejecting Clean Air ballot measures The office of Secretary of State Bev Clarno today informed the chief petitioners -- a civil rights leader, a former nurse, and a retired businesswoman -- that it is rejecting Initiative Petitions 48 & 49, two versions of a 100% Clean Electricity ballot measure bound for the November 2020 ballot. This establishes a pattern of attempts by this Secretary of State to impose her will over the will of the people. She is already fighting at least one lawsuit, in which the state has refused to defend her, as a result of her actions. “There is now a pattern of flagrant abuse of power by this Secretary of State, far outside the norms for any Democrat or Republican who has held the office,” said Tera Hurst, executive director of Renew Oregon, one of the leading groups backing the measures. “The Secretary of State

is siding with the oil industry, corporate polluters, and antiworker special interests to block the ability of the voters to decide their clean air future. It is unconscionable how far special interests will go to protect their profits.” The reason the Secretary of State gave for rejecting the measures was claiming the inclusion of fair labor standards for clean electricity projects, similar to standards that have been part of Oregon law since 1959, violates the “single subject” rule. “It is outrageous that the Secretary of State rejected these ballot measures based on labor standards that ensure fair wages, health care and retirement benefits,” said Robert Camarillo, Oregon States Building and Construction Trades Council. “Everyone in Oregon should be concerned about this overreach and what it means

when the Secretary of State prohibits language that would ensure that the jobs created in this state provide for hard working families and their communities.” Margaret Olney, an Oregon lawyer who has worked on dozens of Oregon ballot measures says the Secretary of State’s actions today and over the past year narrow citizen access to the ballot. “There is no legal precedent for this rejection” Olney said. “The citizen initiative process gives the people the same right to enact laws as the legislature. Until this election cycle, the single subject rule has rarely, if ever, been used to reject a proposed initiative. By ignoring the analysis of the Attorney General, Legislative Counsel, the Oregon Supreme Court and inserting an exceptionally partisan review into

a previously unbiased process, Secretary of State Clarno is undermining our initiative process and crippling the power of Oregonians to take their concerns directly to the voters.” “As Oregonians and Americans, we have a fundamental civil right to petition our government. It’s a cornerstone of our democracy. This Secretary of State is violating our rights, stepping outside the bounds of her office to block that right,” said Lisa Adatto, a retired businesswoman and cochief petitioner on the measures. “My fellow petitioners and I want to protect clean air through this ballot measure. This rejection is jeopardizing our ability to protect our children’s future through our right to vote.” “This purely political move by the appointed Secretary of State is an egregious undermining of

the democratic process and is a strike against the integrity of the initiative system. As a coalition, we’re discussing our legal options with the chief petitioners and we’ll decide how to move forward,” said Doug Moore, executive director of Oregon League of Conservation Voters. “There’s a good chance we’ll see Bev Clarno in court.” Renew Oregon is a clean energy advocacy coalition of businesses and workers, healthcare professionals and parents, farmers and ranchers, faith and community organizations, and individuals coming together to move our state away from polluting energy to a clean energy economy. We are working to create good-paying jobs for all Oregonians, protect air and water from pollution, and help families stay healthy.

Oregon senators speak on impeachment

“We owe the nation facts, fairness, and integrity – not a cover-up,” Merkley said. “I am profoundly disturbed that the Majority Leader has already said that rather than conduct a fair trial, he is working alongside the White House to enact a party-wide cover-up. It is stunning that he is refusing to call witnesses because they would have evidence about the president’s misconduct.” Merkley said at the start of the trial the senator will swear an oath to do impar4785 Netarts Hwy W 4785 Netarts Hwy W tial justice according to the Netarts OR 97143 Netarts OR 97143 Constitution and laws.

Oregon’s Democrat senators issued statements following a vote by the U.S. House of Representatives to impeach Republican President Donald Trump for abuse of power and obstructing Congress. The articles of impeachment now go to the U.S. Senate, which will hear arguments and vote on whether or not Trump should be removed from office. The House voted 230-197 to charge Trump with abuse of power and 229-198 to charge him with obstruction of Congress. The votes were largely split along party lines. The impeachment vote marked the end of a threemonth Democrat-led investigation of allegations that Trump pressured Ukrainian officials to investigate his political rivals while withholding security assistance and a prestigious White House meeting. Republicans have maintained that the impeachment articles are the results of an ongoing Democrat campaign against Trump since he took office, claiming that Democrats are seeking to overturn Trump’s election using a partisan process. Sen. Ron Wyden said the senate has no weightier responsibility than to judge an impeached president. He said as a juror in the coming proceedings, he intends to look at all of the evidence and vote for a just outcome, not a political one. Wyden said a just outcome is only possible if the Senate has access to all of

the facts. He called for the chamber to be allowed to call all necessary witnesses and subpoena all necessary documents to get the fullest possible picture of the events for which the president was impeached. “In my view, no member can uphold their oath of office without calling for a full airing of the facts at hand,” Wyden said. “I urge all of my colleagues to think carefully about how history would judge a sham process designed by the person standing trial.” Sen. Jeff Merkley said the founders created the process of impeachment because they were deeply concerned about two significant dangers: first, foreign influence that might corrupt American democracy; and second, abuse of power by a president tempted to use his powers to become more like a king. “For these two reasons, the founders placed in the hands of Congress the means to act as a check on a corrupt president: Impeachment in the House, followed by a trial in the Senate,” Merkley said. “Today, the House fulfilled its constitutional responsibility.” Merkley said the House has laid out a clear set of facts that should be alarming to anyone who cares about the integrity of our elections or the rule of law. He called it a “compelling case” that the president solicited foreign interference in the 2020 election, that he conditioned official actions on this interference, and that he used the power of the office to advance his own interest instead of the public interest.

Addressing Violence Against Women: The bill contains $502 million—the highest funding level ever—for grants provided by the Office on Violence Against Women. This funding supports multiple grant programs that support training for police officers and prosecutors, state domestic violence and sexual assault coalitions, rape prevention programs, domestic violence hotlines, and women’s shelters and transitional housing support services. Economic Development Administration (EDA): Merkley led a successful, bipartisan effort, including Wyden, to secure $319.5 million for the program, a $15.5 million increase

in funding. The EDA, which was zeroed out in President Trump’s first budget, leverages existing regional assets to support economic development in rural communities. Research Vessels: After three years of spending bills preserving construction funding for the National Science Foundation Regional Class Research Vessel Program, this year, the spending bill includes funding for the operations and maintenance of these new vessels. The vessels are being developed by Oregon State University and will greatly bolster the U.S. marine science research capacity for the next 40 years. Salmon Management: Salmon population management programs, including the operations and maintenance of Mitchell Act hatcheries and the implementation of the Pacific Salmon Treaty, received $56 million. The bill includes $35.5 million to support the implementation of Pacific Salmon Treaty. Salmon Recovery: The Pacific Coastal Salmon Recovery Fund received $65 million.

Nancy Brewer Spencer Hopkins Aug. 26, 1942 ~ Dec. 13, 2019

On Friday, Dec. 13, 2019 Nancy (Brewer) Spencer Hopkins, loving wife, mother, grandmother, greatgrandmother, sister and aunt passed away in Tillamook, Oregon at the age of 77 from complications of pneumonia. Nancy was born on Aug. 26, 1942 in Tillamook, Oregon to Robert “Jack” and Pauline (Stewart) Brewer. She married Dennis Spencer on June 3, 1961 where they were blessed with three children: Dana, Eric and Gavin. They later divorced. On Feb. 4, 1983, she married Carl Hopkins, gaining a step-son, Nathan. Nancy was employed as a secretary at Video Ventures and later at the Tillamook County Courthouse. She found her passion caring for children while working with kids with special needs at the Tillamook School District, and later opening a day care in her home. Nancy was very vocally talented, and she shared her gift with her church (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints), other

churches and the community. It was not uncommon for her to get asked to sing a solo at a church service, the local high school Christmas Concert or a couple’s wedding. Nancy volunteered many hours of her time at her church, attending the temple, working with the youth, planning activities for the church members, and using her musical talents as the church choir director and congregational chorister. She also loved working with the theatrical casts at Tillamook High School doing hair and makeup. Nancy was a beautifier.

gram is designed to address declining Pacific salmon and steelhead populations by supporting conservation efforts in California, Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Alaska. Sea Grant Program: The bill includes $74 million for the Sea Grant Program, a $6 million increase. The program, targeted for elimination in the Trump budget, is a priority for Oregon State University and uses targeted local investments to create economic growth, sustainable fisheries, and resilient coastal communities. Coastal Zone Management: The Coastal Zone Management grants were funded at $77 million, a $1.5 million increase. The program works with Oregon and other coastal states to address some of today’s most pressing coastal issues—climate change, ocean planning, and planning for energy facilities and development. These grants help protect natural resources, improve public access, facilitate coordination between state and federal authorities, and manage hazardous areas. Industrial Hemp: The bill includes language that directs the Drug Enforcement Administration to ensure the subsequent drug codes and scheduling guidance is updated to reflect that the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018 removed hemp and its derivatives from the Controlled Substances Act.

She had a knack for taking an object or place and turning it into a work of art. She enjoyed trips so she could take in and relish all of God’s earthly creations. Nancy had compassion for all animals especially palomino horses, dogs, cats and birds. She always had a bird feeder and often gave names to the birds that were regular visitors. Her greatest passion though, was spending time with her children, grandchildren, and greatgrandchildren. Nancy is survived by her husband Carl, her three children Dana Nelson (Dan), Eric Spencer (Rose) and Gavin Spencer (Michele), step-son Nathan (Millie), 17 grandchildren, 5 greatgrandchildren and brother, Bob Brewer (Kim). A memorial will take place on Friday, Dec. 27, 2019 at 1 p.m. at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 4200 12th Street, Tillamook, Oregon 97141. Any donations may be made to the charity of your choice.

cultivation of commercial hemp is projected to bring in more than $1 billion in economic input to Oregon this year. Tribal Grants and Victim Assistance: Historically, the Native and tribal communities in Oregon have been disenfranchised in law enforcement, health outcomes, and victims’ rights. To address these critical issues, the committee approved a total of $77 million in grant funding for various programs, including $38 million for tribal assistance, $27 million for tribal resources, and $4 million for the Office of Violence Against Women for a special domestic violence criminal jurisdiction program. Office of Community Policing: The bill includes $335 million for the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services. Within that, $245 million has been set aside for COPS Hiring Grants, which help local and tribal law enforcement agencies hire additional police officers—an urgent need for many law enforcement agencies across Oregon. Regional Information Sharing Activities: The program received $38 million to support the activities that enable the sharing of nationwide criminal information and other resources, a $1 million increase for the program that supports the Western States Information Network used by Oregon departments.

We recently completed a 600+ acre, $11M habitat restoration project called Southern Flow Corridor. In Tillamook County, we have over 3500 culverts, which often, due to increased fish passage rules, need to be replaced with a bridge…which is an expensive proposition. This is one of the reasons we have a bridge for every 3 miles of roadway. A difficult environ-

That discrepancy is even more pronounced for Hispanic or Latino Oregonians, whose representation in the minimum wage workforce is 90 percent higher than their share of the Oregon population, and for African Americans, whose representation in the minimum

students. Wilson said this would be a great idea for students to use a free class period on. If they donate their books to the library, students have the opportunity to read their books during summer reading programs. “It’s amazing,” Wilson said of how the books turned out. “They are funny and wellwritten.” Wilson has been looking into getting the students’ books published.

ment for a small rural county, but a true success story in Oregon. Our victory in Court does not mean we can or should diminish our commitment to our environmental responsibilities. As I explained above, Tillamook County is the State leader in clean water, habitat restoration, and fish recovery. ODF cannot disregard the Endangered Species Act, or Clean Water Act, but I feel this jury verdict clearly specifies that the State should not go above and beyond to the detriment of the trust counties. Timber revenue is but one part of the economic and social sustainability of rural Oregon Counties. It must also be understood that jobs in the woods, mills, and truck transportation are some of our rural counties best paying, fully benefited jobs. In the State of Oregon, the Total Private Sector Average Annual Wage is $52K. This same classification of jobs in Tillamook County is $37K. Yet, when you look at forest products industry (FPI) jobs in Tillamook County, we have Forestry and Logging at $55K, Wood Products Mfg at $59K, and Truck Transportation at $47.5K. These are family wage, fully benefited jobs. Tillamook County has 852 FPI jobs which adds over $43.5M to the Tillamook

wage workforce is a third higher than their share of the Oregon population. For women of color, the disparity is even more pronounced. There is a long history of Black and Latina women being relegated to low paying service jobs. Women of color make up one in 10 workers in Oregon, but nearly one in five minimum wage workers is a woman of color. By 2022, the minimum wage increase will directly impact 38

percent of women of color workers. Over half of minimum wage workers work full time, and an additional third work over 20 hours a week. Many of these part-time workers want to work more hours, but are kept at low hours by employers seeking to avoid paying for additional benefits. More work hours also tends to mean greater stability in scheduling, which is particularly important for parents, who

County economy. In the State of Oregon, there are over 60,000 FPI jobs paying an average of $53.5K. This total FPI employment in Oregon adds more than $3.2B to the State economy. Every County in the State has some economic activity generated by the forest sector. Total wood product sales in Oregon exceeded $10.34B in 2016. The total number of wood processing facilities in Oregon was 360 in 1988 and was down to 172 in 2017. When looking at sawmills in Oregon, number have decreased by 53% during the period 1988 to 2017, down to 78 sawmills in 2017. The jury award underestimates the real social cost which was caused by the State’s breach of contract. According to the State’s own figures, each additional million board feet of harvest results in 9.8 family wage jobs. 3.6B board feet of foregone harvest meant 3700 jobs lost. Imagine what those lost jobs would have meant to the trust counties, not only in terms of the productive lives of its residents but of the economic multiplier which would have attached to all the purchasing power those jobs would have resulted in. It is important to note that interest at the State mandated rate of 9% accrues on this must coordinate their work schedules with available childcare. The vast majority of minimum wage workers do not earn tips. While “minimum wage” may conjure images of a server at a restaurant earning tips, that does not represent the typical minimum wage worker. About 93 percent of minimum wage workers do not receive tips to supplement their income. These workers are employed in industries ranging from

damages award which equates to $260K per day. It is expected that the State will appeal this verdict to the Oregon Court of Appeals and then possibly to the Oregon Supreme Court, taking years for these court decisions. No one should blame the trust counties for this situation…had the State performed the contract as originally promised, the Counties would be in a much better financial condition and ODF would also have had the financial means to properly manage the State Forests. It is not right to expect rural Counties to shoulder the burden to benefit the entire State. We in rural Oregon have a great story to tell when it comes to our magnificent forests and the sustainable forestry practices that bring so much to so many. It is unfortunate that the urban-rural divide is so poignant in Oregon. Most rural counties will never be the home of a Nike, or Intel, or Columbia Sportswear. Long before these companies came into existence, rural counties and their natural resource-based industries were the growth engines of Oregon. We can continue to be vibrant, sustainable, self-reliant, rural counties if given a level playing field, and our success will not come at the expense of the environment if we have reasonable harvest policies.

Evelyn Wilson’s senior students recently wrote children’s books for the Writing 101 class at Tillamook High School. This is a dual-credit class that the students get college credit for at Tillamook Bay Community College. Wilson has assigned this project in her class for three years now. She thought children’s books would be fun. In the project, the student must demonstrate that they have

learned all of the grammar rules in the class. One of the grammar rules is that the sentences cannot all start with a noun. The stories also had to have a moral that kids could learn from reading. “The kids are writing great stories,” Wilson said. The students had two options of what they could do with their finished books: donate them to the Tillamook County Library or elementary schools. “The kids are torn,” Wilson said. Some of the students want to read their books to elementary

Two injured leaving high school concert Two people were hospitalized after an SUV hit a pedestrian in front of Tillamook High School. At 8:41 p.m. on Thursday, Dec. 19, Tillamook Fire, Tillamook Region Medical Center Ambulance and Tillamook Police responded to a crash in front of Tillamook High School on 12th Street. It was concert night at the school and the performance was wrapping up, people were leaving. According to Tillamook Police, a 16-year-old student was walking across 12th Street in the crosswalk, assisting his grandmother. They were crossing from the main school building toward the parking lot when he was hit by an eastbound

Chevrolet SUV. The impact caused the student to be pushed into his grandmother who also fell to the ground. The student and his grandmother reportedly suffered non-life-threatening moderate injuries and were taken to the emergency room by ambulance. Police Chief Terry Wright said the District Attorney‘s office would decide whether the driver, identified only as a 17-year-old student with another student passenger, would face criminal charges. The investigation is ongoing. Tillamook School District Superintendent Curt Shelley said safety is one of the highest priorities for the schools. He said there is constant

work to upgrade the safety of 12th Street in particular in collaboration with Tillamook People’s Utility District (PUD), City of Tillamook and Tillamook Police. The PUD installed upgraded lighting this past month. Shelley said the District is also investing in flashing lights at crosswalks and is scheduled to install fencing that would funnel pedestrians towards crosswalks. The District also continually works with School Resource Officer Nick Troxel around safety issues, including safe driving guidelines. Shelley said the crash in the crosswalk was lit by several vehicles at the time. A westbound

driver was stopped to allow pedestrians to cross, and another in the parking lot was also lighting the crosswalk. He said law enforcement did not attribute the crash to poor lighting. The Crisis Response team assembled this morning, and the District is providing a ‘Care Room’ today at Tillamook High School and other schools to provide support for staff and students. The District is also in contact with the families involved to provide support. Students were informed of the crash details the following morning during class time. The District said both victims were in good condition.

In another recent incident, two students were hit by a car near Tillamook High School Oct. 21. A pair of 16-year-old students were hit by a 17-year-old student who was driving eastbound at 6:43 p.m. on 12th Street from Miller Avenue. All three were in the choir, heading to a concert in the auditorium. The victims were taken by ambulance to the emergency room with non-life-threatening injuries. Life Flight was requested but unable to fly due to weather conditions. Wright said he was not considering any criminal charges for the driver in that crash, calling it an accident.

Tillamook PUD responds to outages, storm damage Cody Mann headlightnews@ countrymedia.net Wind and rain blew through Tillamook County leading into this past weekend, prompting Tillamook

People’s Utility District (TPUD) to call for all hands on deck. Joanna Stelzig, TPUD public relations manager, said it was an all-crew outage as of late Thursday night, Dec. 19. The first call came

in around 5:30 p.m. and crews were out working until midnight Saturday morning, coming back in Saturday to finish up some small issues for about 17 hours. Stelzig said most of the damage to TPUD equip-

Crews were stationed throughout the service territory and working on outages as they occurred. The PUD also posted frequent updates on outages to social media. Of around 8,200 people who lost power during the storm, Stelzig said 8,000 were in the North County area.

tem or foundations of adjacent houses. She said houses and its foundation settle after this kind of construction and you won’t know until months after construction is over. The property is also susceptible to flooding. Lynnae said there will be substantive and negative impacts if the cable system is installed. There is no way to forecast impacts. She believes this project would alter the character of Tierra Del Mar and would set the stage for future cable installation projects. Chair David Yamamoto asked if there is any expectation for revegetation. Lynnae said this is a private company asking for state and local permits to cut vegetation. Yamamoto said the silt fencing needs to be addressed. He also said the safety of the residents of Tierra Del Mar could be benefited by the increased technology. “Tillamook County could certainly be benefited by that,” Yamamoto said. “The state of Oregon certainly could.” Edmund Ruttledge, Lynnae’s husband, was the next appellant to speak. He had a four-decade career working with local government and spent a lot of time working with boards in decisionmaking. He said the procedure during this project was disturbing. A resolution was not achieved by the planning commission’s decision. It needs to be thought out with care. Edmund hopes for more detailed procedures in the future. He said a tie vote is not a majority and the planning commission didn’t know what do. A motion to reconvene was not made. “The planning commis-

ing tips to prepare for a storm or power outage: if you have a well and know a storm is coming, fill your bathtub with water for toilet flushing and other water needs, have flashlights, food, water and other supplies available, and keep a radio handy for updates. If you have access to the internet you can get updates from the TPUD Facebook and Twitter pages or from the TPUD website. They also send out Nixle alerts. If you require electricity for medical needs (oxygen, CPAP, etc.) please have a back-up plan

sion is probably one of the most difficult commissions to be a part of in the county,” Yamamoto said. “They make these types of decisions on a regular basis and they are not easy decisions.” Edmund agreed that the planning commission has a difficult job. He said there is going to be winners and losers, but both parties should feel comfortable with the result. The Oregon Coast Alliance spoke next. Jeff Bryner said the Tierra Del Mar community is unanimously against the project. Bryner said Facebook has made claims that it should be viewed as a public utility. Open Platform Communications requires public utilities to be regulated; Facebook is not. Bryner said issuing this conditional use permit is not logical and the existing permit calls out no safety regulations. He said the project does not meet the requirement for conditional use. Michael Kittell was the fourth appellant to speak. He represents a number of people from Tierra Del Mar. He said there are a number of citizens from communities beyond Tierra Del Mar that have concern. He said ‘public’ in the context of Goal 11, means the public, and in this case, the public of Tierra Del Mar. Tillamook County is quickly running out of cable routes, Yamamoto said. “I for one would like to bring some of those cables into Tillamook County, but we are running very short of that,” Yamamoto said. In Facebook’s closing rebuttal argument, Phil Grillo of Davis Wright Tremaine, wrote that Tillamook County has the highest ratio of fixed internet access connections in the state. This high ratio of fixed internet access connections has significant public policy

in place for if the power goes out. “We do the best we can to restore power to areas as quickly as possible,” Stelzig said. “However, depending on the situation this can take some time.” During an outage, be sure to keep your refrigerator and freezer shut to keep food cold, unplug sensitive electronics, and if it is cold outside close your windows, drapes and doors to keep heat in. If you see downed lines do not go near them, call the TPUD dispatch line at 503842-2122 or 800-842-2122. and public health, safety and welfare advantages that are directly attributable to the County’s progressive broadband infrastructure polices, Grill wrote. Grillo wrote that opponents have mischaracterized the proposed use as an industrial or commercial horizontal directional drilling project, which it is not. He argued that for land use purposes, the county does not define land uses based on the type of construction methods involved. The opponents have attempted to shift focus onto who owns, operates and uses the proposed use, stating that the project benefits only Facebook and its users. In regard to the noise issue, Grillo said Facebook has provided a professional noise mitigation study showing that temporary construction noise on the site does not violate any applicable noise standards, and that the temporary construction noise it does produce will be significantly lower than the noise from most construction sites. Facebook is willing to consider installing a taller sound barrier along portions of the southern part of the site, to further reduce temporary construction noise. Grillo wrote that there is substantial evidence in the record that after the proposed 35-day construction period, there will be no impacts from the proposed use that will alter the character of the surrounding area that limits, impairs or prevents the use of surrounding of surrounding properties for the permitted uses listed in the underlying zone. The continuation of the hearing is scheduled for 1:30 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 8, in the Board of County Commissioners Meeting Rooms A & B of the Tillamook County Courthouse.

Tillamook State Forest brings in $38.8M for county, local services The Oregon Department of Forestry released a report to state forest trust land counties highlighting economic, environmental and social accomplishments in fiscal year 2019, including distributing $38.8 million in revenue to Tillamook and Washington counties, along with local service providers. At over 357,000 acres, the Tillamook State Forest is Oregon’s largest state forest. Tillamook County and local taxing districts with state forestland received $24.7 million in fiscal year 2019,

while Washington County and local districts received $14.1 million. Additionally, a portion of state forestland in Columbia County managed out of ODF’s Forest Grove District received $2.8 million. Revenues are distributed based on timber sales within a particular jurisdiction. Statewide, counties and local governments received record revenues of $86.9 million in fiscal year 2019, collected from timber sales on state-owned forests. Other highlights include replanting more than 3.1 million trees

and hosting almost 40,000 campers at ODF campgrounds. ODF recently released its Council of Forest Trust Land Counties annual report, which highlights the array of economic, environmental and social contributions from approximately 729,000 acres of actively managed state forestland. It includes a recap of timber sales and revenue distribution, conservation and forest health activities, and recreation use, including popularity and number of visitors, among other

The Fifth District reaches from Tillamook to Coos Bay on the Oregon Coast and extends into the valley to Sheridan and Falls City. The district is currently represented by Democrat Sen. Arnie Roblan, who is not seeking another term. State Sens. Chuck Tomsen and Herman Baertschiger attended the morning announcement event that was held at the Hilltop Inn Family Dining restaurant in Lincoln City to offer their support. “In spite of the strong

economic forecast recently released to the Legislature, not all of Oregon is enjoying the gains.,” Anderson said.

“The Oregon Coast remains challenged by and lagging in economic growth. The coast needs an advocate that recognizes the differences in Oregon and is willing to fight

in the Legislature on the coast citizens’ behalf.” Anderson said his long list of supporting coastal citizens is varied. Along with serving currently as mayor he is a former city councilor. He has been elected twice to the North Lincoln County Health District, serves on the executive committee of the Oregon Coastal Zone Management Association, two state transportation groups, and he participates with the Confederated Tribes of the Siletz on several advisory boards. Anderson said he hopes to bring balance to the Senate chamber that would bring better legislation for the citizens of the Oregon Coast and the entire state.

We are so pleased to announce this year’s

Thanksgiving Benefit Dinner at The Schooner Restaurant & Lounge and The Upstairs Bar & Grill raised over $25,000 for the Oregon Food Bank Tillamook County Services and we could not have done it without your help! From corporate sponsors to our beloved volunteers, we were able to deliver the check to OFB-TCS which will in turn go towards feeding over 75,000 people in our community, as well as providing nutrition and garden education, public awareness and increasing self-reliance to improve the health and well being of our neighbors. Again, this could not be possible without the collective help from all of you, and we are humbled by the outpouring of support we receive each and every year from the community to ensure this event is a continued success!

From our family to yours, we wish you a very happy holiday season! The Schooner Restaurant & Lounge and The Upstairs Bar & Grill

Oregon commercial crab fishery to open Dec. 31 Fresh Oregon crab is back on the menu soon—the commercial Dungeness crab fishery will open along all of Oregon’s coast on Dec. 31, according to a report from the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. Prior to the opener, crab vessels will set gear from Dec. 28 onwards, using the “pre-soak” period of time to set gear in anticipation of the first pull of ocean crab pots just before the new year. The ocean commercial Dungeness crab season in

Oregon is targeted to open Dec. 1, but can be delayed to ensure a high-quality product to consumers and to avoid wastage of the resource. Crab meat recovery testing in late November and early December showed that many areas within the Tri-State region still did not meet the criteria for an opening. The delayed opening has allowed for crabs to fill with more meat and all areas have now exceeded meat recovery criteria. Recreational crab harvest-

ing is currently open coastwide in the ocean, bays and estuaries, and on beaches, docks, piers, and jetties. Recreational crabbers should always call the Shellfish Hotline (800-448-2474) for closures before crabbing. Commercial Dungeness crab is Oregon’s most valuable fishery. Last year’s delayed season opening still brought in the second highest ex-vessel value ever ($66.7 million) with 18.7 million pounds landed, just above the 10-year average.

Sheriff’s Office brings in 405 pounds with food drive This past week, Tillamook County Sheriff’s Office donated more than 400 pounds of food to the Oregon Food Bank’s Tillamook office. The food was collected during a ‘Fill the Sheriff’s Office’ campaign. Sheriff Jim Horton was reportedly happy to get the food out of his office, but he said the most important thing was being able to help friends and neighbors, which was only possible through the generosity of the community. “I am very pleased that we were able to collect this amount of food that will go to help needy individuals in our community this holiday season,” Horton said. “This is just another example of how our community comes together in times of need and

State unemployment dips to 3.9 percent Oregon’s unemployment rate dropped to 3.9 percent in November, the lowest on comparable records dating back to 1976. The October unemployment rate was 4.0 percent, as revised from the originally reported figure of 4.1 percent, according to a report from the Oregon Employment Department. In November, Oregon’s unemployment rate dropped below 4 percent for the first time since comparable records dating back to 1976. This puts the rate slightly above the November U.S. rate of 3.5 percent. Oregon’s unemployment rate has been hovering near historical lows of near 4 percent for the past 37 months. Meanwhile, total nonfarm payroll employment shot up by 6,300 jobs in November, following an upwardly revised gain of 6,500 jobs in

October. October was revised upward by 2,100 jobs. So far in 2019, monthly employment gains have averaged 2,600 jobs, which is slightly slower than in 2018 when monthly growth averaged 3,000 jobs. The tight labor market, and perhaps the unusually mild and dry weather in November, seem to have influenced seasonal trends in the major industries. Industries that normally shed a lot of workers during the autumn months didn’t cut back as much as normal. In November, the following industries cut back less than normal, and therefore posted seasonally adjusted job gains: construction (+2,200 jobs), manufacturing (+1,900 jobs), and professional and business services (+1,400 jobs). On the flip side, the tight

labor market may have inhibited certain industries from hiring as many workers as normal in November. Government and retail trade both normally add a substantial number of jobs in November, but each industry hired a few hundred jobs fewer than normal for the month. Oregon’s over-the-year job growth of 1.6 percent closely matched the U.S. job growth of 1.5 percent. Most of Oregon’s major industries have expanded by about 2 percent since November 2018. The primary exception of an industry growing faster was education and health services, which grew by 9,900 jobs, or 3.3 percent. Conversely, the only major industry that contracted substantially over the past 12 months was retail trade, which cut 1,800 jobs, or -0.9 percent.

Tillamook High Grad to Represent Tillamook County in Dairy Princess-Ambassador Contest For Tillamook High School graduate, Araya Wilks, being the Tillamook County Dairy Princess-Ambassador is a way to honor her family’s dairy farming heritage and share her grandmother’s legacy. For the past year, this 20-yearold has promoted the dairy industry as the Tillamook County Dairy Princess.

Next month, she’ll compete to represent the dairy industry throughout the state. “I have always wanted to help my community in any way I could,” says Wilks. “Being a dairy princess ambassador is a great way to connect to the youth around the town where I have grown up.” Wilks, a 2017 Tillamook

Tillamook Football highlights: All-league players, honorable mentions Hilary Dorsey headlightreporter@countrymedia.net The Tillamook football team finished 7-4 overall with a 2-3 record in league play. The Mooks were an Elite 8 team this year. The team went to the playoffs, winning against Elmira with a score of 20-10 and Mazama with a score of 19-14, and losing against The Dalles with a score of 58-51. Kaleb Boomer, senior is a two-time allleague player, last year as a Defensive back, said Coach Kye Johnson. Boomer is also a two-time Cowapa League punter of the year. Perry Reeder, senior, is a two-time all-league player as well, last year as a defensive lineman. Kaleb battled through some injuries, had a handful of scores get called back on penalties and had statistically kind of a frustrating year,” Johnson said. “But he basically never came off the field, he was always a threat to hit the big play for us. He had another fantastic season in the return game and again was the Cowapa League punter of the year, he was a very versatile piece for us this year and couldn‘t be more proud of his three year

Photo provided by Kye Johnson. varsity contributions.“ Other All-League players were tight end Kellen Shelley, senior; defensive line Aiden Johnson, sophomore; linebacker Alex Werner,

senior; and linebacker Miquel Neimi, junior. Johnson said Reeder and Aiden anchored the defensive from down and kept playing better as the season went on. Aiden had five sacks in the Astoria game alone and Reeder constantly had double and triple teams on him inside to free up other box defenders. He said their first team nominations were very well earned. “Alex and Miquel were such a huge part of our defense this year at the linebacker positions,” Johnson said. “Very attack-oriented guys who played with a lot of good energy. They were leading tacklers on our team, very versatile, and we’ll be looking forward for Miquel leading another good linebacking group next year too.” Homorable Mentions are quarterback Chad Werner, senior; wide receiver Quintin Metcalfe, senior; and running back Brauly Mendez, senior. “Chad wound up being our most explosive offensive player – had an all-time Mooks

performance in the state playoffs and wound up with about 2,000 total yards of offense for us, including 22 touchdowns (16 rushing, 6 passing),” Johnson said. “By the last few weeks of the season, we really knew how the most effective way for us to move the ball was and that was ultimately just spacing the field for Chad to be a run-pass threat,” Johnson said. “That semifinal game against The Dalles, I can’t say enough about how well he played.” Werner had 296 yards passing, 152 rushing, and five total touchdowns. Johnson said he had an outstanding year. „We‘re happy to see a few of these guys returning for more football wearing a Mooks uniform,” Johnson said. “But we‘ll have a handful of positions to replace as we head into next year. We have future all-league guys waiting in the wings, and I‘m hoping they will be competitive with each other for those open starting positions and continue pushing us forward as a program.“

Tillamook junior high football players represent Oregon in NFL Hall of Fame Youth Tournament Three Tillamook Junior High student athletes had the opportunity to travel the Mecca of football in Canton, Ohio to represent Oregon in the NFL Hall of Fame Youth Tournament. The three boys (Seth Glaster, Mathias Tuiolemotu and Griffyn Boomer) attended tryouts at Rex Putnam High School in Milwaukie, as well as McKay High School in Salem. The three athletes were selected out of about 300 kids that had tried out, said Tillamook Junior High Football Coach Joshua Luciani. All three boys played on the sixth-grade team, while Luciani had the opportunity to run the offense for the eighthgrade team. “We had a lot of Tillamook football players tryout for the all-star squad,” Luciani said. “For those that didn’t make In the picture from left to right Methias Tuiolemotu the cut this time around, they #7, Seth Glaster #80, Coach Luchi, and Griffyn are encouraged to keep fine Boomer #12.

Healthy baking tips – Lighten up recipes December is bake till you pop month. We all know this. Visions of sugar cookies begin to dance in our heads and brainwash us into baking not just two dozen of them, but 6 or 10 dozen of them to spread the cheer. (Or the waist lines.) In my experience, it is very difficult to avoid all the Christmas cookies and other delights, but there is a way to mitigate the spread by baking lighter and with healthier ingredients. First off, let’s debunk a myth that can be restricting when you start to experiment with changing your favorite recipes — baking is not an exact science. I know, I know, we’ve all heard how you must be precise in your baking but, I’m here to tell you, I am a first-class experimenter on baked goods and rarely do they totally bomb. Ok, now that we have that cleared up, let’s get experimenting! One of my favorite simple ways to make a healthier baked good is to replace white flour with whole wheat pastry flour. It will make a slightly chewier cookie that has a bit of a nutty flavor, but I personally like that better. Whole wheat pastry flour is milled from soft white wheat so has a tender crumb, whereas regular whole wheat flour is milled from hard red wheat. Whole Wheat Pastry Flour is a good source of dietary fiber; 28 grams (1 ounce) provides 4 grams of fiber per serving and white flour provides only 1 gram. I also like to add 1/4 cup of flax seed meal or wheat germ and reduce the flour by that same amount for even more fiber. Now that we have more fiber, let’s tackle the fat in baked goods. Most cookies are high in saturated fats with all that jolly butter that they are baked with. It is very easy to reduce that by replacing half the butter with heart healthy light tasting olive or avocado oil to lower the saturated fat content. Neither you nor Santa will notice the difference. Another option that works great is to replace half the butter with a fruit puree like apple or pear butter. This

makes for a moist and tasty cookie but you will see a difference in the oven, they don’t flatten on their own while baking. To fix this, all you have to do is to squash them with the palm of your hand before baking them. (If you lightly wet your palm before doing it the cookie dough won’t stick to your hand.) Fruit puree replacement lends itself more to cakes, muffins and drop cookies but not so much to cut out cookies. The last tip I’ll leave you with is simple but effective; make your cookies smaller. We are so use to having HUGE cookies served to us that small cookies seem like a rip-off. Adjust your mind set and cut calories by a remarkable amount just by reducing the size of your cookie. I bought a little mini ice cream scoop and use that size when baking so I keep them small. If you are making cut out cookies, use the smallest cookie cutters you have to limit size. Here is my favorite light sugar cookie recipe that is delicate of flavor and texture. They tend to puff up a bit when cooking so will

Next add the lemon zest, and vanilla and mix till well blended. In another bowl, mix all the dry ingredients together with a wire whisk till happily combined. Add the dry ingredients together with the sugary ingredients and stir together, by hand or blender, till the dough is well formed. Shape the dough into two disks and tuck in the fridge for a few hours or preferably overnight, to firm up. When you are ready for the magical cookie making time, preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Roll out one disk on a floured board or between two sheets of wax paper, till about a ¼ inch thick. Cut cookies out with your favorite cookie cutters and place on a lightly oiled cookie sheet. Bake for about 8 to 10 minutes till they are golden brown around the edges and the center is set. Don’t move the cookies for

BIRTHS

ANNIVERSARY

Peterson 75th Wedding Anniversary Tillamook is home to a marriage longer than most people in Oregon have been alive. Dr. Roy and Claire Peterson, arguably one of the most inspiring pairs of people in the county, will celebrate their 75th wedding anniversary Dec. 31 surrounded by friends and family. Roy, 96, and Claire, 96, met as freshmen at Washington State College in Pullman, Wash. on a blind date, over a Coke, in the Cougar Cottage in September 1941 and were married Dec. 31, 1944 in Colfax, Wash. Soon after graduation from Washington State, in the 1940s, the two permanently relocated to Tillamook where Roy – or “Doc” if you prefer – was a veterinarian and Claire worked as a secretary before the couple started their family. They have three children: Anne (Richard), Jean (David), and Eric (Loretta); 11 grandchildren:

Erika (Julio), Robert (Tammy), Lindley, Leslie (Nathan), Sarah (Scott), Sean, Meredith, Katie (Jordan), Jessica (Greg), Patrick, and Troy (Kelly); and three great-granddaughters: Georgia, Hannah, and Zoey. Seventy-five years together has given the couple innumerable memories and stories they are always happy to share with those around them. In their three-quarters of a century in Tillamook, both have served on numerous organizational boards and have been very socially active. Roy and Claire still live in their Tillamook home, go on daily walks, enjoy well-made tuna fish sandwiches topped with bread and butter pickles, and laugh – several times – every day. Happy anniversary you two love birds! You are so very much loved. Now go turn on Glenn Miller’s “String of Pearls.”

FENCEPOSTS Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukah, Kwanzaa blessings—joyous holidays to all! And an auspicious New Year right around the corner. Three ladies from Cape Meares—Patti Smith, Karen Walz and yours truly—attended a marvelous holiday luncheon at La Tea Da with 18 other members of our card-making club. Each lady had her own pot of tea and the group shared a buffet lunch of scones, tea sandwiches and mini-desserts; everything was delicious. What fun to visit with good friends and share the joy of the season in such a lovely setting! The “Third Tues-

day” group meets on (yes, you guessed it) the third Tuesday of each month in the basement of St. Alban’s church to make greeting cards. For the most part, the group uses rubber stamps, designer paper, embellishments, and other goodies to make cards for their friends and families. Keri Wetzel, formerly of Tillamook, is the Stampin’ Up representative for our club and has coordinated activities in the past. Now that she lives in Cornelius, Judy Taylor of Rockaway did the honors in organizing our holiday lunch; thank you, Judy! Card-making is a fun and

When I was little Mom would tell we three children that “some little good fairy” had visited whenever one of us performed a kindness and she didn’t know whom to thank. Some little good fairy sent email from the planners of Birding and Blues to our Fencepost inbox! We are asked to mark our new calendars for the weekend of April 17-19 for Pacific City’s Birding and Blues Festival. Follow them on Facebook at facebook. com/BirdingandBlues/ or visit BirdingandBlues.org for updates. I will cover updates, as I am aware of them, in this space. The Social Security Office located on West Bond Street in Astoria will relo-

cate five miles southeast on Monday, January 13. Their new location is 1479 S.E. Discovery Lane, Suite A-130 in Warrenton; the zip code is 97146. The office serves residents of Clatsop and Tillamook Counties in Oregon and Pacific County in Washington. Office hours will be 9:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. Business operations at the Bond Street Office in Astoria will end after closing at 4:00 p.m. on Friday, January 10. Latimer Quilt and Textile Center is featuring South County Quilters on display through January 4. The Center, located on Latimer Road in Tillamook, is open from 10 a.m. until

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I hope that everyone has safe travels. Christmas is the busiest holiday of the year and can sometimes be overwhelming. Every year I tell myself that I am only going to put a wreath on the front door and we’re all going out to dinner. For some reason that never happens and before I know it, my whole house is covered in glitz and sparkle. An ideal Christmas for me would be spending time with friends and family and taking in all of the special events that Bay City and our surrounding communities have to offer. But for every Christmas dinner, concert, or other special event we get to enjoy, someone behind the scenes is making it happen. We are enjoying all the packages and cards we have received, thanks to postmas-

ter Steve Reeves working overtime processing all of the incoming and outgoing mail. Despite the huge volume during the holiday season, Steve always greets his customers with Christmas cheer. Steve’s wit and humor brightens the day of everyone who comes to his counter. Thanks Steve! If you missed the Methodist Church Women’s Christmas Bazaar on December 14th, you missed the best one. Marj Dyrnes, Jane Erskine, Kathy Pollock, Karen Allenbrand, Linda Melgosa, and many others should be congratulated for their well-organized bazaar and hard work. May I say, just watching them work wore me out. I’m giving you early notice of The Lunar New Year event at Bay City Art Center on January 25th at 7:00 PM, featuring Amanda

Mele Kalikimaka a Hauoli Makahiki Hou! (Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!) Christmas Day. Can you believe it? Do you remember the magic of Christmas when you were young? It wasn’t so much about gifts, as we didn’t get many. But the few were got were so special. Grandpa and Grandma Hoyt, from Omaha, Nebraska, always made sure a box arrived on Christmas eve or Christmas day, and the Hoyt grandkids (us), felt ever so special with what they sent us. We didn’t know them well, but the few times we met them, well, they had formed a really special bond with us. Our stockings were always filled to the brim with fruit, nuts and swirly candy. We didn’t get stuff like that throughout the year. Christmas morning began with mass. We were so excited to get home and open gifts. And when we got home, we took turns opening one gift at a time. We watched each other excitedly, awaiting our turn. Now, with my own family, we still do it that way, though there are a lot more gifts under the tree for our clan. I hope you have your own traditions each year and that you have the merriest and most blessed Christmas ever. Our daughter, Amber is hosting again this year. She is a great host. We have both sides of the family over, share food and gifts, and then we have a game we play. (After an ukulele performance, of course.) She has a beautiful casserole dish that is filled to the

brim with questions about our childhoods and sweet memories. She tapes it so she can add it to her family tree information for the next generation. We laugh; we cry.... Memories differ from kid to kid. It is funny how we remember things differently. Well, I guess I had bett er begin my column. I received a call from Anne Savage last week. I hope I get the story right, as I was performing at the Simply Charming event when she called. So, here goes. A gal had finished her Christmas shopping in our town and put it in a tote in the back of her pickup. As she was leaving town, the tote slid out the back of her truck and she didn’t notice. The man behind her did, and immediately pulled over to retrieve it. Well, she had gotten too far ahead, so he couldn’t chase her down. So he took it home and went through the contents to try to identify who she was. They were all her Christmas gifts. He looked and looked until he found a receipt with her name on it. That’s where Facebook helped. She couldn’t believe it, but drove back from Sherwood to Rockaway Beach to get all her presents. When Anne called, she let me talk to

We have some December birthdays to celebrate: Allie Jones’s birthday is December 17th. Allie just retired from the Blue Heron French Cheese her. Oh my gosh. I could see her big smile over the phone. She was elated! Christmas Spirit is alive and well in Rockaway Beach. The Lions Club in Rockaway Beach have New Years plans! I guess you would call it a Potluck Bingo. The doors open at 5pm, New Years Eve, you enjoy a potluck around 6, then BINGO! This evening will include a special round of flashlight Bingo. How fun!! Bring your flashlight and potluck food and enjoy an evening of merriment with friends. I received an email from Rockaway Beach’s newest year-round resident. She moved here from Illinois on October 18th! She had originally been from the Zigzag/Mt. Hood/Parkdale area 30 years ago. She is looking for her forever home here, but is staying at the Terimore Motel until the perfect place appears. So, check out her lights on Anchor Street. She has a special Christmas message to share with our community. Welcome to this piece of paradise. You picked a good place to live. The Tillamook County Library, in Tillamook, is having a Happy New Year 2020 party from 6-9pm on Tuesday, December 31st. This will be fun for the whole family and includes games, music and more! And for myself, I can get home at a decent hour! “What is Christmas? It is tenderness for the past, courage for the present, and hope for the future.” Merry Christmas friends! That’s Rockaway Beach, “Sugar Coated!” See you next year!

first time at the Pioneer Courthouse Square on Dec. 14. Theron is a trumpet and French horn player, but he thought Tuba Christmas sounded like fun. His Sunset High School band instructor lent him a tenor tuba and Theron practiced for a week. He then played with 310 tuba players, accompanied by three opera singers, at the concert. What a great experience for Theron! Dec. 27-31 is Winter Whale Watch Week and volunteers will be posted at the Cape Meares Lighthouse to help visitors spot whales and to answer question about gray whale migra-

tion. Each winter, more than 20,000 gray whales migrate from British Columbia and Alaska down to Baja, Mexico to calve. And in the spring, they return. Check it out! We are coming up on one of the biggest fundraisers of the year for the Cape Meares Community Association: our New Year’s Eve party and silent auction. All ye residents of and visitors to Cape Meares, come to the old schoolhouse on Dec. 31 from 7-9 p.m. with finger food and cash or a check to bid on the marvelous offerings for this year’s auction. Items range from a three-

month membership at the YMCA to window-washing services to unique handcrafted items. If you have an item to donate or a service to offer, it’s not too late to tell us about it. Contact Bev Stein at steinbeverly@ gmail.com or by phone at 503-354-2066. One last tidbit: Start your New Year off right with the Cape Meares First Day Hike on Jan. 1, 2020. Assemble at the parking lot for the Cape Meares lighthouse at noon. You must register for this event; go to store.oregonstateparks.org under the “tours/events” section. Get those steps in!

Company. I thought she would have too much time on her hands so I have signed her up for several committees, well, not really. But she is one of our most faithful Pearl Festival volunteers. Marj Dyrnes’s and Pat Ryan’s birthdays are on the 23rd. They not only share a birthday, but they are both members and pillars of the Methodist Church. I would sign them up for committees, but they are already on all of them. My friend, Kathy Pollock’s birthday is

the 24th. She and her husband Robert serve in many capacities at the Methodist Church and are members of the Boosters Club, VFW and VFW Auxiliary. Robert has served on the Bay City Council and they are both new members of the Oyster Club. I don’t dare sign them up for any more committees. The Bay City Council will hold a special meeting on December 23rd beginning at 5:30 PM. The agenda items are consideration of Resolution 19-26 Interfund Loan and Resolution 19-27

Budget Appropriations. The meeting will be held in Council chambers located at 5525 B St., Bay City. The public is always welcome to attend. You’ll find that city business is always fascinating and sometimes even entertaining. You can email me if you have information that you would like to share with the Fencepost. You can reach me at (503)931-9721 or email jodydesign@hotmail. com. I’ll meet you next week at the Fencepost.
