Tillamook schools begin hybrid model for K-6 on Dec. 9 T

he Oregon Department of Education released new metric information for Safe Schools, Safe Learners on Oct. 30. The Safe Schools, Safe Learners guidance has changed to allow more counties and school districts to return to in-person learning. Tillamook School District is eligible under these new metrics and intends to start a phase in for a hybrid model for students K-6 beginning Dec. 9, the start of the second trimester. Tillamook School District stated they intend to start a phase in for secondary schools in week one or two of January. Superintendent Curt Shelley said with the hybrid model, half of the students would come school for in-person learning on Mondays and Wednesdays and the other half would attend Tuesdays and Thursdays. On Monday holidays, those students would attend inperson learning Wednesday and Friday of that week. Fridays will be a time for staff professional development and preparation. The changes in the Safe Schools, Safe Learners metrics allows for inperson instruction in places of the state

where the risk of COVID-19 is lower. Changes to the metrics include additional time for schools to transition between in-person and distance learning models; increased access to in-person instruction at the elementary level; a two week ‘look back’ at the metrics data, rather than one week at a time over a three week period; and removes the state positivity rate in favor of county positivity rates. “We’re starting K-6 because the little ones are not the transmitters, according to pediatricians,” Shelley said. “We’ll slowly turn the dial up for junior high and high school.” Shelley said the school district is working to be prepared to go back to comprehensive distance learning if there is a COVID-19 outbreak. Schools will have hand sanitizers, temperature checks as students walk into school and health rooms for kids who need to be isolated. Staff will be trained for those things as well. Shelley said they also hired a district nurse. “Once we start in-person learning, walk-up meals will be able to be available for those kids who are on alternate days and not in school,” Shelley said. “They’ll be able to walk up to the cafeteria and get [their meal].” Shelley said for students in class,

meals would be brought into the classroom on carts, as each classroom is its own cohort. The school district is also working on implementing transportation routes. “We’re encouraging people who don’t feel comfortable with putting their children on the bus to transport them themselves,” Shelley said. Students K-6 will begin the hybrid model on Wednesday, Dec. 9, the start of the second trimester for the school district, Shelley said. Dec. 6 is a teacher work day and on Dec. 8, teachers will meet for professional development. “Our 7-12 will continue with comprehensive distance learning,” Shelley said. “We’re going to watch the metrics and see how we’re doing. We feel pretty good about K-6 because those kids aren’t the super spreaders but we’ve got to be a little more cautious about our grades 7-12.” The school district hopes to get grades 7-12 back in class as early in January as possible. Shelley appreciates how hard all school district staff has worked, stating that the teachers have been spectacular. Send comments to: headlightreporter@countrymedia.net

illamook City Council discussed at a meeting Monday, Nov. 2, the finance committee’s recommendation concerning a county property tax exemption proposal. The Tillamook County Housing Commission is currently working with the cities to implement dual ordinances. The property tax exemption can be claimed on new construction or rehabilitation. The tax exemption would abate taxes on multi-family structures for 10 years. The county is making the decision on the properties in the unincorporated areas and the cities are making decisions on the properties in their areas. Tillamook County Commission Chair Bill Baertlein said this is the county’s request to the city and that it is time for the city to step up to the plate, as the county has helped the city in many ways, including paying for the signs at Carnahan Park. City Manager Paul Wyntergreen said this is an incentive program to attract developers. It would increase safety impacts. It would give the city 10 years of additional public safety. “There’s not a direct cost to the city,” Wyntergreen said. “You’re withholding future income is what it is. Your costs to the city are indirect and you’ll have apartments with people who demand services without having any property tax during that period of time. You will have increased public safety during that time.” Sarah Absher, director of the Tillamook County Department of Community Development, said the city should look at this as an investment. The abatement does not have to last the full 10 years. “The most extreme case could be a 10 year exemption for the entire development but there’s opportunities for many layers of how that exemption can be taken and what the level of participation is,” Absher said. When the tax exemption period is over, it is over, Absher added. “The city can choose to stop participating any time,” Absher said. “You would just be committed to the exemptions you’ve already done.”

County leaders recommend closure of Cape Kiwanda to vehicle beach access T

Hilary Dorsey Staff Writer

he Tillamook County Board of Commissioners voted in a meeting Wednesday, Nov. 4, to send a letter of recommendation to the Oregon Parks

and Recreation Commission regarding vehicle beach access in Tillamook County. Chief of Staff Rachel Hagerty said the commissioners accepted testimony on the subject from Oct. 5-20. During that time, the commissioners received over

1,000 responses. “Tillamook County tourism continues to grow rapidly, overloading the county’s ability to manage the increasing number of visitors,” the commissioners wrote in the letter the Oregon Parks and Recreation Depart-

ment (OPRD). “The tidal wave of tourists overloads beaches with vehicles and enforcement agencies, like the Tillamook County Sheriff’s Office and Oregon Parks and Recreation Department, lack

Oregon OSHA adopts temporary rule addressing COVID-19 in all workplaces Oregon OSHA has adopted a temporary rule that combats the spread of coronavirus in all workplaces by requiring employers to carry out a comprehensive set of risk-reducing measures. The rule will take effect Nov. 16, with certain parts phased in, and is expected to remain in effect until May 4, 2021. It is a continuation of the guidance produced by the Oregon Health Authority and enforced in the workplace by Oregon OSHA, including physical distancing, use of face coverings and sanitation. The rule is intended to further improve the current structure for reducing risks in the workplace by requiring several measures many employers have voluntarily implemented. For example, it requires employers to notify employees of a workplace infection and provide training to workers on how to reduce risks. Likewise, employers must formally assess the risk of exposure, develop infection control plans, and address indoor air quality within

their current capability. “We believe compliance with this rule will help reduce the serious threat to workers posed by the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Michael Wood, administrator for Oregon OSHA. “It does so by establishing a clear, practical, and consistent set of measures for employers.” Those measures – along with more requirements for exceptionally high-risk jobs, such as direct patient care – are part of Oregon OSHA’s ongoing enforcement and educational efforts to help protect workers from the coronavirus disease. Beginning in late June, the process to develop the temporary rule included more than a dozen virtual forums dealing with specific issues and industries before the first of four stakeholder review drafts was even developed. And each subsequent draft incorporated changes resulting from Oregon OSHA’s discussion with a large number of employer and worker representatives, as well as feedback from

the public at large. Adoption of the temporary rule brings the requirements within the existing rulemaking authority of the Oregon Safe Employment Act. The law governs workplace safety and health in Oregon, including protections for a worker’s right to raise on-the-job health and safety concerns free from retaliation. In the weeks ahead, Oregon OSHA will provide educational resources to help employers and workers understand and apply the requirements. Already, the division offers consultation services that provide no-cost assistance with safety and health programs and technical staff, who help employers understand requirements. Oregon OSHA encourages a careful reading of the temporary rule, which includes an appendix that contains provisions for specific industries and workplace activities. The temporary rule’s requirements include: Physical distancing • Employers must ensure six-foot distancing between all people in the workplace

through design of work activities and workflow, unless it can be shown it is not feasible for some activities. Masks, face covering, or face shields • Employers must ensure that all individuals – including employees, part-time workers and customers – at the workplace, or other establishment under the employer’s control, wear a mask, face covering, or face shield in line with the Oregon Health Authority’s statewide guidance. • Employers must provide masks, face coverings, or face shields for employees free of cost. • If an employee chooses to wear a mask, face shield, or face covering – even when it is not required – the employer must allow them to do so. • When employees are transported in a vehicle for work-related purposes, regardless of the travel distance or duration, all people inside the vehicle must wear a mask, face covering, or face shield. This requirement does not apply when all people in the vehicle are members of the same household. Ventilation • Employers must

maximize the effectiveness of existing ventilation systems, maintain and replace air filters, and clean intake ports providing fresh or outdoor air. The temporary rule does not require employers to purchase or install new ventilation systems. Exposure risk assessment • Employers must conduct a risk assessment – a process that must involve participation and feedback from employees – to gauge potential employee exposure to COVID-19, including addressing specific questions about how to minimize such exposure. Infection control plan • Employers must develop an infection control plan addressing several elements, including when workers must use personal protective equipment and a description of specific hazard controls. Information and training • Employers must provide information and training to workers about the relevant topics related to COVID-19. They must do so in a manner and language understood by workers.

Notification, testing, medical removal • Employers must notify affected workers within 24 hours of a work-related COVID-19 infection. • Employers must cooperate with public health officials if testing within the workplace is necessary. • If an employee must quarantine or isolate, the employer must follow proper work reassignment and return-to-work steps. The rule requires more measures for exceptionally high-risk jobs. Such jobs include direct patient care or decontamination work; aerosol-generating or postmortem procedures; and first-responder activities. The additional measures include: • Detailed infection control training and planning • Sanitation procedures for routine cleaning and disinfection • Robust use of personal protective equipment • Operation of existing ventilation systems according to national standards • Use of barriers, partitions, and airborne infection isolation rooms

Tillamook County leaders discuss COVID-19 updates, holiday travel Hilary Dorsey Staff Writer Tillamook County Leadership discussed in a community update Friday, Nov. 6, COVID-19 updates and holiday travel. As of Nov. 6, the county has 71 confirmed positive cases. Adventist Health Tillamook President Eric Swanson said Adventist Health hospitals continue to see volumes come back. The hospitals have advanced disinfection procedures and everyone is screened for COVID-19. “As a whole, we are having a good financial year,” Swanson said. “Some of the CARES dollars we have received have been helpful for that.” Tillamook County Community Health Centers Administrator Marlene Putman said

They request for vehicle beach access to be prohibited from the mouth of Sand Lake Recreation Area south to the Tierra Del Mar beach access area. “We request the commission provide the county authority to temporarily restrict motorized vehicle access at county-owned beach access points for public safety,” the letter added. While some of the Pacific City beach access points are temporarily closed during COVID-19, the board continues to support vehicle access in other sections of beaches in the area, specifically at Tierra Del Mar, McPhillips, Pacific City Turnaround and boat launching at Cape Kiwanda. Commissioner Mary Faith Bell said she appreciates the over 1,000 people

there are seven new confirmed positive cases of COVID-19 this week, which brings the county to a total of 71 positive cases. Nineteen cases are currently under monitoring. According to the center’s public health nurses involved with case management and contact tracing, of those 19, 12 are active cases and seven are contacts of cases being monitored. There are 11 presumptive cases in total. According to Oregon Health Authority, there have been 3,824 negative tests completed in Tillamook County. There have been a total of 3,895 tests completed. The health center reports one individual is currently hospitalized in the Portland area. To date, there have been nine people who were hospitalized. There have been zero COVID-19 related deaths in the county. “If you do have a positive case of CO-

who have voiced their opinion on the subject. “We heard a lot from the hang gliding and paragliding community,” Bell said. “I’ve said this before and I’ll continue to say it, that one of my favorite things about local government is the ability for citizens to participate.” Commissioner David Yamamoto said this is simply a recommendation from the board of commissioners to the Oregon Parks and Recreation Commission. The county is only recommending the closure of one area. “There are so many issues here, public safety probably being the number one issue to me,” Yamamoto said. “Our decision here to ask OPRD to close one beach access point, at Cape Kiwanda, the Dorymen and boat launching needs to continue.” Yamamoto said the county received a lot of comments from many people. The county is also recommending McPhillips Beach access point to remain open for paragliders and hang gliders. The county has also received a lot of comments from kay-

akers, as well as the elderly and disabled. “In keeping the other three access points open, I think it gives all sides what they need and what they want but it allows us to close what I feel is one of the most dangerous beach access points on the Oregon Coast,” Yamamoto said. Commission Chair Bill Baertlein said the beaches are changing and tourism is changing. As the tourism industry continues to grow, in order to keep the public safe, beach parking needs to be limited. The Oregon State Parks and Recreation Commission will have a public discussion on rules to restrict vehicles on beaches in south Tillamook County near Pacific City and north of Tierra Del Mar at 9:45 a.m. Wednesday, Nov. 18. To register, visit http://bit. ly/parkscommissionzoomnovember. Instructions on how to attend the will be available online prior to the meeting at https://www.oregon.gov/oprd/CAC/Pages/ CAC-oprc.aspx

exemption would be a huge impact for 10 years and needs to be extremely well considered. “There is a demand and the demand is well-documented,” Wyntergreen said. “If this is successful and it takes off, you’re looking at a significant new demand, primarily on public safety.” Councilor Doug Henson said this is a program the city should probably eventually support but he would like more information about what the other cities in the

county are doing and how it will impact the city’s budget. Mayor Suzanne Weber said the council could have a workshop to discuss the proposal further after they receive more information. It will then go back to the finance committee, who will fine-tune it, before coming back to the council to make a decision.

VID-19, please return the calls to our public health nurses so that they can ensure that we follow up with anybody that might be a close contact,” Putman said. “This is a way we can ensure that we’re trying to stop the spread of COVID-19 in our community and elsewhere.” Putman said people should think about travel plans around the holidays as soon as possible this year. When it comes to the upcoming holidays, the safest thing you can do is stay home, she added. If you are traveling, limit your exposure to people you do not live with for 14 days before visiting older adults or family members who are at high risk of

infection. Oregon Health Authority states the safest way to travel is by car and only with people you live with. Oregon Health Authority recommends you get your flu shot at least two weeks prior to travel. You should wear a face covering in crowded areas and around people you do not live with. Stay in a separate room from others when you arrive at your destination. After returning home, quarantine for 14 days and limit your exposure to people you do not live with.

Letters to the editor The best is yet to come We are all breathing a collective sigh of relief today, and, underneath our masks, have a strange upturn to our lips. Don’t worry. The latter is known as a smile, something many of us have not experienced, at least politically, for the past four years. Let’s savor this moment of celebration. We can’t, however, forget that our real work is now in front of us. The last four years and this election have shown us how divided we are, as a nation, as a state, as a county. This division reaches into our own communities and families and is the “inertia” that stops us from moving forward together to solve the real problems we need to address. As a grass roots political organization, Tillamook County Democrats must

take the lead in building the framework that will bridge this gap right here, right now. Let’s reach out to our neighbors to learn more about their fears and concerns, their hopes and dreams, so that we can find that illusive common ground on which we’ll build a better foundation for our united future. Thank you for all your work in this election. Stay involved…the best is yet to come. Fred Bassett, Chair Tillamook County Democrats

Why are gas prices so high in Tillamook Co? I would love to hear a coherent explanation as to why the prices for gas are 50 cents lower in Newport than in Tillamook. Even the branded stations are the

same 50 cents less. Considering the delivery fee is the same, and the same company delivers it, how is this price justified? Ed Ketzel Bay City

rum roll please… Many have been waiting patiently to hear our plans for the annual Chamber Banquet and Community Awards Ceremony. Well, it’s no surprise at this point that our banquet will look different than it has in past years. With a limited capacity on crowds at the state level, we are reimagining how to host a meaningful banquet for folks, fundraise for Chamber programs, and recognize our business community, organizations, and individuals. One way we are doing that this year is by modifying the awards to honor as many of the businesses, people, organizations and programs that we can who have made a positive impact in 2020. Take a look at the last 10 months and ask yourself: who made a difference for me? Who went above and beyond to be there for their community, and make the most of a tough situation? Yes, it’s been a weird year to say the least, and we’ve all had to make changes and sacrifices that we haven’t liked. But now it’ .s time to take a look at the basket of lemons and ask ourselves: while we were busy being that no weights or exercise devices will be used in any of the exercise routines, Each routine is performed by the indiviudual to the best of their ability; you can’t do it wrong. Casual clothing is the suggested attire and sneakers. The YMCA is offering this class to non members and there is no charge to atend. If however you would like to make a donation, any amount you can comfortably afford would be greatly accepted. There is a limit to the number of people allowed to attend as soccial distancing is a requirement, so sign up today for the class by calling the YMCA at 506 842 9622 to assure that you have a place in the class. Give yourself a wonderful gift (FREE OF CHARGE) and begin to improve your body in a very relaxed and gentle way. Joseph Gluzinski Tillamook

frustrated, who was making lemonade? Let me get you started with few to get your thoughts flowing: When the YMCA was shut down, they refocused their efforts to collecting food and other essential items and delivering it to people in need. Madeline’s Vintage Marketplace and the Tillamook Liquor Store property have undergone beautiful transformations, while Pelican Brewing Co. added a completely new brewhouse in their Tillamook location. Pacific Restaurant and Blue Heron French Cheese Co. started offering family-sized take-out meals on their menu to give working families a week-night break. Instead of canceling, the Tillamook County Fair organized a walking tour of fair exhibits. During the Pike Road Fire, several local restaurants, businesses and individuals donated

food and essentials to those on the frontlines. (And I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the phenomenal dessert auction organized by PNW Fire Relief that raised thousands of dollars in a few hours.) We have seen immense challenges this year, but we have also seen incredible generosity and positivity. Where COVID brought new regulations, it also brought innovation. We saw curbside pick-up and people choosing to support and shop local over other options. Let’s take some time to focus on the good and nominate a person, organization, business or program for a 2020 Community Impact Award. To make your nomination, text “iNominate” to 56525 or visit tillamookchamber.org/nominate and fill out the online form. At least the top ten nominees in each category will be recognized and celebrated in the community and at the 2021 Chamber Banquet and . And don’t worry, we will be revealing more details about the banquet in the upcoming weeks. Until then, go make your nomination. There is no limit to how many nominations a person can make. I think it will make us all feel good to recognize the good work being done by those in our community.

Tales from the Library Bill Landau Extension Librarian Tillamook County Library

I

am calling this column “five things you should know about the Tillamook County Library.” By the end, you will hopefully know a bit more about how TCL works. Pay attention…there might be a quiz at the end! #1 – We are ONE big happy library family… even though we have many locations throughout the county. We adhere to the same rules at every library, and we can get you any item in our collection, no matter where it is currently sitting on the shelf. For instance, if you only frequent the Manzanita Library, but there is an item you want

n Letters Continued from Page 4 voted for, we’re all on the same team. We the Democrats of Tillamook County wish Republicans Suzanne Weber and Dick Anderson success representing us in the Oregon state legislature. In return, we expect them to listen to, represent and show up for those in our community who did not vote for them. We believe that’s the way forward in these divisive times that are concerning for us all. Peter Marks Nehalem

Unfair to hit locals with day use fees I have mixed feelings towards day use fees in the county with respect to cost to county residents verses non-county residents. My issue is the word discrimination and how out of county residents would be unfairly charged. Where I feel local county property tax payers are paying more than their fair share of the costs. The Parks Department is well run and is self funded by fees. However you can see Sheriff’s (trucks and boats) at these day use areas. Most notable is the Sollie Smith boat ramp at peak fishing seasons. The trucks can be there most of the day on weekends. I would guess the ramp would not beak even if the Sheriff’s Support was included in the cost of this ramp. I pay property taxes and purchase a yearly day use pass. What is fair for noncounty residents is certainly not fair for local county residents. In my opinion this is charging double. I would like to see support from local county residents and get it resolved. The state charges more to non residents for fishing and hunting licenses. The county community college charges more for tuition if you do not live in Oregon. This seems to be some discrimination involved here? But it’s a reality that makes sense. I checked one more county department which surprised me. This was the county library. County Residents get a library card at no cost. However residents pay about $3.2 million in taxes to support the library. A non-county resident can get a card for a year at $50. I remember interviews with the librarian on KTIL radio where this was not possible. Now it is. If locals paid $50 instead of property taxes that would be a payment of $1.3 million (26k residents x $50). In actuality each resident pays $123 ($3.2m / 26k residents). Reverse discrimination? I am not sure if anything will change but it seems unfair to local county residents. Jake Rzuczek Tillamook

at the Pacific City Library, we will put a “hold” on that item and happily transfer it for you. But our awesomeness doesn’t stop there! If we do not have an item you want at ANY of our locations, we will either purchase that request…or we will search other libraries across the ENTIRE COUNTRY to bring that item to you. We call this service “interlibrary loan”, and it shows you just how far we will go to make our patrons happy! #2 – TWO represents Library2Go, our resource for e-book checkout on your electronic device. But digital books are just one part of our electronic offerings which allow you to access a wealth of library materials online, from your

own home. Whether you are wanting to listen to the latest music, read new books or magazines, learn a foreign language, research a topic, watch a movie, or read today’s Oregonian online, you can do that from our website under the E-Resources tab. Use of our electronic materials has greatly increased during the COVID restrictions. #3 - We have THREE people on our management

team at Tillamook County Library. Sarah Beeler is the manager of the big library in Tillamook, and I am the manager of the five branches, as well as the bookmobile and the courier service. The two of us are supervised by one director, and that position is currently being recruited because of Sara Charlton’s retirement. The three of us together make up the management team and are responsible for planning, for policies, and for the forward momentum of the library system. #4 – Most people would assume we just have one library board, but we actually have FOUR. The main TCL library board oversees and advises the management team on all library

Page A5

matters. But we also have separate boards that meet in Pacific City, Rockaway Beach and Manzanita. These boards direct the affairs of the libraries in their specific towns. That brings us to our final item on our list… #5 – There are FIVE branch library locations outside of Tillamook. They are in Manzanita, Rockaway Beach, Garibaldi, Bay City and Pacific City. But did you realize that the county does not own these five branch library buildings? That is “part of the deal” when considering where to have a branch library. The boards in these towns are responsible for owning and maintaining the buildings in which the libraries are located. They

pay utilities, provide furniture, and pay for upkeep of the building. Each board conducts fundraisers and have Friends of the Library memberships to pay for the smooth operation of the facility. The library, in turn, provides the staffing, computers, books and more. Bay City and Garibaldi locations exist because the respective cities have generously provided free space and utilities in order for their citizens to enjoy a library in their town. It is a very unique and cooperative, win-win arrangement! That is it! Remember when I said there might be a quiz at the end? I was just kidding! So, keep reading, and we will see you at the library…whichever one you decide to visit!

Christian Kenneth Hooley Feb. 4, 1965 - Nov. 1, 2020

C

hristian Kenneth Hooley was a native son of the North Oregon Coast having spent nearly his entire life in the presence of the sea. Born on a bright, sunny day on February 4th, 1965, in Tillamook to Kenneth D. and Dorothy M. Hooley, Chris came home six days later to Oceanside where he slept in a boat-shaped cradle. After six weeks passed they changed jobs and moved to the Sweet Home area where his father cruised and bought timber for Sweet Home Veneer. A job change led the family to Canby, Oregon where his brother, Loten Matthew was born at Oregon City, OR. In 1969, the family made its way back to Tillamook where his parents purchased Anderson Florists. In 1970, Hobsonville Point became their permanent home. Chris started school at Garibaldi Grade School. He had many friends that started their academic careers at the grade school and went all through the NKN school district with him – Brian Hixson, Chris Hoy, and Lance Waldron to name a few. Cleone Ironhawk, Chris’ first grade teacher told Dorothy that Chris had an empathy for his friends – a trait that he exhibited throughout his life and law career. Growing up on Hobsonville Point with his family, Chris came naturally to a passion for the water and what was lurking in its depths. Be it a small stream or backwater here in Tillamook County, or an arm of the coveted Siltcoos Lake in Florence, or some high Oregon lake, he was always anticipatory and excited as a young boy with the prospect of each new adventure and each new cast of his fishing pole. Brian Hixson and Chris were kindred spirits in these adventures. All manner of fishing excursions which included spending a week or two on the sailboat Puffin at Siltcoos Lake, exploring every hole on the Miami River, and competition bass fishing on Spring Lake and Lake Lytle. Sometimes, not often, a mishap would

occur. One memory -- In his zeal, Brian let loose a great cast and hooked Chris behind his ear. Not being able to surgically remove it themselves, Dorothy received a call from Rinehart Hospital to OK removal of the hook! Of all the waters, the ocean held a special place deep in his heart. Having worked as a deckhand on the Kerri Lin as a young 7th and 8th grade boy, this only sparked a deeper connection with the wonders of the sea. “A promise of a new day”, as he called it. Sitting on the back of a boat just before dawn, rolling on a gentle swell with fishing pole swaying with the motion of the water and watching the sun rise over the hills. He has many photos of scenes just like this. They brought him to tears many a time. The sparkling water and the radiant sun so faithfully rising was the epitome of the day’s promise. The experience of being on the massive ocean with all it’s secrets and surprises just below the surface, was enough to make him often exclaim: “I am one happy man!” Chris ended his career at Neah-kah-nie in 1983 as the class valedictorian and was selected for the Tillamook PUD scholarship. This scholarship was most valued by Chris throughout his life. He often recounted astonishing stories about his novice ability with a chainsaw and also spoke fondly of all the people he worked with during those summers. Oregon State University was Chris’ destination in 1983. He enrolled in engineering, but once his studies began, he soon discovered that, although he enjoyed math, engineering was not his forte. He believed that education for education’s sake was most important and that, if possible, a person should take classes that were enjoyable. With hard work and perseverance, a career would follow no matter the major. So he promptly changed his major to history, and much to his parents’ credit, they did not express dismay. Chris’ passion for history endured throughout his life as the many books that line his shelves can attest. Chris graduated from OSU in 1987 with high honors. Not desirous of teaching, Chris enrolled in law school at Lewis and Clark and excelled. He graduated cum laude in 1990. His first legal job was at Dunn, Carney, Allen, Higgins and Tongue in Portland. Despite meeting some tremendous people it wasn’t long before

the siren call of the ocean beckoned and Chris sought employment at the coast. He was most fortunate to join the ranks of Campbell, Moberg and Canessa. Each of these lawyers were very special to Chris. They generously mentored him for over fourteen years. When it came time for some to retire, they disbanded and went their separate ways, but remained friends throughout the years. Chris was so extremely grateful to have been in their company. During his tenure with Campbell, Moberg and Canessa, Chris and Lisa married in 1996. The two of them feeling so joyful and blessed to be cleaved to one another; each being entirely content to spend all of the minutes, of all of the days, with one another. With this marriage came Kathleen Huber and in 1998 Maxwell Christian Hooley was born and the family was complete. Love of his family was paramount in Chris’ life. They made their home in Nehalem, both children attending the Neah-kah-nie schools. The north county community is extraordinarily special. The friendships that were made gave them joy throughout the years. A multitude of days spent enjoying the river was a gift that can never be repaid. For the past fifteen years, Chris has been a solo practitioner. He considered it a great privilege to work for, and with, the residents of the county and enjoyed deeply listening to family stories, history and adventures. A personal passion of Chris and inextricably connected to the love of anything to do with water and fishing — was boats; particularly wooden boats. As many are well aware, the Hooley clan is afflicted with a boat obsession. Beginning with his grandfather Hooley, which was handed down to his father, Ken, and finally to Chris and Loten; the love of wooden boats was paramount in their lives. This passion presented itself some years ago when Chris stumbled upon a Henry Huerth boat which was in need of some repair. With glee and enthusiasm he purchased the boat, brought it home and Chris, along with Ken, promptly set about to spruce her up. This boat was lovingly named the Edwin after Chris’ grandfather. The joyous memories made on this boat are far too many to recount and is a fixture in our lives to this day. Once a married man, Chris decided to try his hand at building a small boat suitable for rivers and lakes. Taking over the garage our small son peeked in on his dad and asked him what he was doing. Chris’ reply: “Im building us a friend.” With that sentiment the Friend Boat was born. But the Friend was not alone for

long because an ocean boat was calling Chris’ name. Always admiring of the east coast lobster boat design, Chris began his search and soon found a boat builder located on Campobello Island in New Brunswick, Canada. The builder shipped a bare hull to Chris and after five years of loving labor, the boat was finished and ready for launch. Many iterations of names were bandied about, but one particular name suited Chris and the emotions that he felt about her – Solace. The Solace always provided joy and was never a burden. Fishing trips too numerous to count and overnight trips to Depoe Bay, Astoria and Grays Harbor were just a few of the glorious ocean adventures. Perhaps just as important, the Solace was fortunate to be moored at Kelly’s Brighton Marina. The quiet times lounging on the boat with our wonderful friends Kelly and Janice was our version of “living the dream”. The burden of a cancer diagnosis can be unfathomable. Fortunately, and through sheer determination, Chris was able to work a majority of the time. More importantly, however, he was also able to enjoy traveling to more places than he ever expected. These trips with family and great friends created indelible memories. When reflecting on the short time that he was going to have on this earth, he turned away from despair and counted all the blessings he was granted. A faithful Christian, Chris accepted Christ as his Savior at a young age. When the decision was made to enter hospice an overwhelming peace came over him and he contentedly began his journey to eternal life. He wanted all to know that he is free from pain and eternally happy. Chris passed away on November 1st, 2020 peacefully at home surrounded by those he loved. Those predeceasing Chris are his father, Ken Hooley and his mother-inlaw, Janet Prather. Those who survive him are his loving wife, Lisa Hooley; son, Maxwell Hooley; daughter, Katie Huber (Dave); mother, Dorothy Hooley; brother Loten Hooley (Jennifer); nephew Sam Hooley; niece Olivia Hooley; uncle, Ed Hooley; aunt Anne Reiling; uncle Neal Reiling (Sandy) and family; father-in-law, James Graham (Laurel); fatherin-law Glenn Prather; brother-in-law Mike Graham (Missy); niece Jessica Graham (Ryan); and niece Jordyn Graham A graveside ceremony was held on November 8, 2020.

The COVID-19 pandemic is especially adverse for children, according to Kaiser Permanente Northwest pediatricians, who said they are seeing significant weight gain in children as they come in for their annual well-child physicals. Inactivity, lack of sports, play, physical education (PE), stress, and unhealthy eating habits are combining to reverse recent improvements in childhood obesity rates, the doctors report. The percentage of children considered obese is expected to jump in 2020, after declining slightly in the past 10 years. Remote learning downside “Many kids are doing a lot of online learning and that is contributing to them being very sedentary,” Kaiser Permanente Northwest Chief of Pediatrics Dr. Lisa Denike told The Headlight Herald. Schools that are offering online physical education classes and the few that have in-person PE classes is encouraging, Denike said, because that allows children to have some physical activity during their day. Denike also encourages parents to take their children for daily walks around the block or at local parks. “That gives the family a chance to get outside, get some fresh air and spend time together,” she said. “Not only does that give the kids some physical activity, it gets them off their screens and gives them direction time as well.” For both parents and children, high stress and anxiety resulting from the pandemic can lead to eating disorders, according to Denike, who recommends that parents follow regular scheduled meal times and help their children avoid grazing or snacking inbetween those meals. “That can be really helpful to avoid that extra calorie intake,” she said. Denike said the added responsibility of being a parent, working and being a teacher at home due to the pandemic can be very challenging and hard at the end of the day to plan and develop healthy meals and that leads many to seek quick fast-food meals or having processed food delivered that a family may

not otherwise eat. Lifelong impact Without the needed daily physical activity, Denike said children face obesity and that could lead to inducing COVID infections and other serious health issues. “As kids become more obese, they increase their chances of contracting Type 2 diabetes and prior to COVID we were seeing more and more of that develop,” she said. “Developing that during childhood can lead to lifelong serious diseases developing in later adulthood, such as kidney problems, high blood pressure and heart disease.” Practice family routines Doctors are also seeing a rise in mental health issues among children and teens, ranging from sadness and stress to anxiety and depression. “The first thing we all need to do is to take a breath and acknowledge how difficult these times are for everyone right now,” she said. ‘This is a huge change for us. So, look at developing strategies and what is in your control and what can you can do. Focus on responsibilities at home and the practical things that can be accomplished.” Denike encourages parents to work with their children and write down sleeping, meal and activity schedules on a chart and place that chart on a wall for all to see and to follow. “Having a schedule that parents can reinforce is a huge help,” she said. “That’s in our control and the more that we have in our control the better we will feel. Our kids will feel that as well. When we are stressed, they feel that.” Pandemic anxiety, stress The Kaiser Permanente Northwest doctors said they are also seeing a rise in mental health issues among children and teens, ranging from sadness and stress to anxiety and depression. Denike said the pandemic could also provide an opportunity for parents to practice resilience. “It gives us a chance to talk with our children about what they are afraid of and what they are worried about and to reassure them, and goes a really long way,” Denike said. “Being together more and to communicate is positive, letting your children know that you may have some worries

n Jan. 9, 1929 Martha entered this world the daughter of Sam and Virginia (Craft) Toy of Columbus, Ohio. Martha passed away peacefully with family 91 years later on Sept. 15, 2020 in Summertown, TN. While attending nursing school she met a rowdy apprentice tool & die maker named Roy. As their love grew, so did the war in Korea and while Roy was home on leave from the US Air Force, they married in December, 1950. As an RN Martha loved patient care, finding work wherever Roy was stationed, even while overseas. She retired after 42 years, but never stopped caring for others. Wife, mother, grandmother, homemaker – Martha was able to make room for and cook enough food for everyone who showed up at meal time - no matter what time it was served. Even to the end she loved being in the middle of the kitchen, where the action was. An active member of the Catholic Church she served too, and helping them learn positive coping skills to ease their concerns is very helpful.” Denike encourages parents to be aware of the social media that their children may have access to. “Know what social media platforms your children have access to,” she said. “Just because it is online doesn’t mean it is factual. Just starting there is important and it is important to check in with you kids and give some undivided time every day, even if it is just a few minutes.” Denike recommends that parents check the American Academy of Pediatrics website, aap.org, which offers valuable information about social media and other topics to keep children safe and healthy. “It is important for us to

Due to COVID restrictions a private funeral mass at St. Peter Catholic Church Newberg and interment at Willamette National Cemetery are being held. A celebration of life is planned for a later date. use the upcoming holidays to build new traditions with our families,” Denike said. “Kids love to be creative, so talking with your kids about new traditions that you can have with your family is a good way to stay connected during the pandemic.”

Death Notice

R

achel E. Gaines, 37, of Tillamook, died on Oct. 31, 2020.

Joan was very proud of her career as an elementary school teacher especially in the field of outdoor education. She taught school for 30 years beginning in Tillamook and later in the Vancouver Washington School District. Joan was always excited to introduce her kids to science and the outdoors. She fondly remembered her “mad scientists” of East School’s sixth grade class. At outdoor school she was known as “Big Kahuna”. Joan lived a good long life with many adventures and will be sorely missed by those who loved and respected her. The family is especially grateful to Savannah Vomacka, Joan’s caregiver of many years. Her final wishes were for her ashes to be placed with her mother Jean’s remains at the IOOF cemetery near Bay City Oregon. At her request no service is planned.

ometimes we forget how lucky we are to live in the mild climate of coastal Oregon. Our summers are cool to warm but not hot and our USDA Zone is 8b or even 8a. But the nicest part to me is the mild winters that the ocean currents provide for us. We get the south winds in the winter which helps to moderate the air temps too. And we usually can count on enough rain to keep roots of trees and shrubs well-watered. But that doesn’t mean we can get complacent when it comes to winterizing our gardens. Of course, this is not the time to prune any shrubs or trees because that generally gives the plant the signal to put on new growth. But we can cut back our roses

now since they have – for the most part - stopped growing. I cut mine back to about knee-height and remove any of the stems that are smaller than the width of a pencil. Those I take all the way back to a main stem. I try to prune just above an outward growing bud so when the rose does start new growth in the early spring, it will grow outward, leaving lots of room for air in the middle of the plant. This helps mitigate fungal diseases that seem to plague plants that are too thick in the center. If you are in an area of very strong winter winds, you might consider tying the canes together so they won’t whip around in the wind and damage each other. Roses with lots of

thorns do the most damage to themselves in winds coming from any direction. I also stopped fertilizing about 6 weeks ago now so the plants can harden off before cold weather. New growth right before cooler weather is not what we are looking for to keep our plants healthy. Monitor deciduous trees and shrubs for signs of fungal diseases like black spot, anthracnose, downy mildew or shot hole fungus. Black spot is pretty easy to spot just from its name: black spots on leave. Shothole fungus is easy, too; it

looks like buckshot holes in the leaves. The others are not as easy to identify and present mainly as severe damage to the leaves. There are hundreds of kinds of fungus and many are found in Oregon. In any case, if the leaves on your shrubs or trees have signs of any kinds of fungus, it will be worth the effort to rake as many of those leaves as possible and dispose of the them in bags. This will help stop the spread of the fungal bodies to other plants. Don’t compost leaves, though, as the fungi have the ability to “hide” until they find a new host. Learning how to compost leaves and other yard debris is a whole other topic and I will give some tips about that in my next column. Suffice it to say for right now, focus on getting as many of the leaves off the grass and from around the base of trees as you can.

ape Meares lost a beloved member of our community the weekend of Halloween. Merry Ann Bennett passed away after a long illness. Our deepest condolences to her husband of 62 years, Harold, and the rest of the Bennett family and close friends. The neighborhood won’t be the same without Merry Ann’s trilling a cheery “Hello!” at passersby. The Smith household welcomed two new family members last month. They are a darling pair of kittens named Jasper and Chumley. The two are pumpkincolored and full of mischief. Patti sent a picture showing them playing in a shoe rack; good thing they aren’t puppies, or those shoes would have been chewed to bits! Mike must be particularly enjoying the kittens; when my husband, Pete, called the other night

to compare fishing reports, Mike couldn’t get off the couch to answer the phone because Jasper and Chumley were asleep on his chest. Spike Klobas is shaping up the town. You might have read in earlier columns that Spike organized garden tours of Cape Meares over the summer. Shortly after that, she invited neighbors on walks or hikes with her, including a trip up the hill to the Octopus Tree at the Cape

If you have a veggie garden, it will make it even better if you plant a cover crop for the winter. This will fix nitrogen into the soil. The cover crops can be turned over in the spring before they go to seed to enrich the garden even more. Legumes like vetch, crimson clovers and fava beans are good choices for Tillamook gardens. What I do still keep doing is watering the gardens deep enough so that if we have a dry spell, the shrubs and trees will have had enough water to see them through. I know we generally get enough rain in the fall and winter, but like everything else about 2020, this is not a normal year. As I write this column in early November, the weather is sunny and warm. So we can’t take it for granted our plants will be okay with the little bit of rain they got over the summer. It may

sound silly, but if we reach November 11 with still not much rain, get the hose out and give everything - even established plants, but especially ones planted this year – a really good soaking. It goes without saying that the tools need to be cleaned and oiled before putting them away. And I move my patio furniture inside, too. Yard art was taken in long ago as was my ceramic fountain. Not all fountains will be susceptible to freezing cold and may be okay if left outside. But ceramic pots and fountains will hold water which freezes, expands and then cracks the pot. So those are all best moved inside. Now comes time to relax for a bit, think about what worked and what didn’t and record that in your garden journal for next year. By learning the history of our garden, we will avoid repeating mistakes.

Meares State Park. Now, she is sharing her Qi Gong exercise videos for the long, rainy days to come. Thanks, Spike, for helping us all to stay healthy! The Burkes’ cabin on the hill is coming along nicely. Kathy gave me the grand tour the other day. I admired the new kitchen cabinets, crisp white with black handles, designed and built by Kevin. Several appliances are now in place and a bunk bed will go in one of the bedrooms. The wood flooring and walls make it such a cozy place. Good job, K & K! I had a trick-or-treat fish on Halloween. I hooked a nice Chinook, played it to the boat—only to find the spinner stuck in the tail! Well, releasing that fish finished my 2020 salmon season. Steelheading is up next, but not for me. I remember steelheading on

the Wilson River one frigid January day. I was wearing every bit of warm clothing I had, and I was still cold. At one point, I pulled up my line to find a leaf clinging to the lure. I knew I needed to remove the leaf, but I was reluctant to take off my warm knit gloves. I tried to remove the leaf with one hand and got my glove stuck on the hook. I used the other hand to try again, and that glove, too, got stuck on the hook—just like the old story of Br’er Rabbit! I gave up and took both hands out of my gloves, leaving the gloves hanging from the hook as I worked to remove the leaf. Not only was Pete laughing, but he glanced up at the shore and saw someone else laughing, too. All this serves to make the point that you won’t be getting first-hand steelheading reports from me.

reetings Bay City! On Veterans Day our nation pauses to honor, respect, and show our gratitude to the men and women who served and came home, and to remember the ones who didn’t. I want to share a personal story. My husband Kin had already graduated from Oregon State University. We were married and he had just started his career working for California Fish and Game. I was pregnant with our son Matt. When Kin voluntarily joined the Marine Corps, a tour in Vietnam was the result of that decision; a decision that changed both of us for life. One very vivid memory from those years in the Marine Corps has stayed with me to this day. After completing his training at Officer Candidate School

and TBS in Quantico, VA, we were stationed at El Toro Marine Corps Air Station in California. Kin left for Vietnam in April, 1968. Our son was 13 months old. Seven months later I flew to Hawaii to meet Kin for his R&R; a short three days; a wonderful reunion, but a wrenching second goodbye. After the goodbye kisses and the last “I love you”, it was time to put the military men and women on the airplane. They separated us from our husbands, and the women were guided to the rooftop of the airport so we could watch the person we loved the most in the world board the plane, the ones leaving and the ones staying all trying to be stoic. We watched them walk across the tarmac, and as each man boarded, they turned

D

ale and I just bought an Instant Pot at Costco. We had an amazing potato soup at our friends house, social distancing of course. It was then we decided to buy one. Last night we had our own totally awesome soup, and we are hooked. A Facebook friend, Robin McDonald, has been giving me advice and helping me through this new way of cooking. It is so different than the pressure cooker my mom had, which scared me to death. Robin has been cooking this way for several years, so I consider her a pro, at least in my eyes. Well, I see some really good meals coming up. I am so tired of cooking, but this makes it a lot more fun. Anne McBride is still the President of the Rockaway Beach Library Board. They haven’t been able to have their membership drive this year, so they could use our help! They would like you

to wave one more time and disappeared into the plane. One by one the small porthole windows filled with men’s faces trying to see their beloved one more time; and we waved back to make sure they knew we were watching. Calm prevailed until the plane took off and all of our brave fronts fell apart under the shared fear for our husbands’ safety. We knew they were not all coming back. That gut-wrenching

realization brought us mentally to our knees, all praying the same prayer: “Please let my husband come home”. I know we were all bargaining with God that day. In the November 4th Headlight Herald, guest columnist Kelly Fitzpatrick, the Director of Oregon Department of Veterans Affairs, wrote a beautiful piece: “A Time to Pause as a Nation”. She wrote in part that Veterans Day was conceived in November 1919. (I had just read in another article that it was formally recognized at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month). She also wrote that this year marks 75 years since the end of World War II. Beyond these two important historical facts, she wrote something that

stood out to me; that “The veteran community is as diverse and united as the nation they serve”. That was a reminder to me that our nation is made up of people with different life experiences, backgrounds, and political persuasions; but as Eric Holder Michael Mukasey wrote in the Nov. 4th Oregonian, “We have a system that relies on resolving political disputes within our political processes”. I believe more than ever that our veterans and our nation as a whole, have something in common: A great desire to serve and do good. Picture this: In the Pearls Before Swine comic, Pig carries a “Box of Hope”. He trips and the Box o’ Hope falls. A limb spears the box. Pig and the box are hit by a truck.

Pig tries to cross a wood platform from the edge of one cliff to another; it breaks and Pig and the Box o’ Hope fall. Pig comes home with the Box o’ Hope in pieces and he’s taping it back together. Rat says “Hard not to admire”. Our nation, our political system, and the citizens of the United States keep hope alive, no matter what. That’s what our job is; and that’s what the United States is all about. I close today with a heartfelt “Thank You” for your service when your country called you. Thank you for making the sacrifice of leaving home, family and country, not knowing if you would be the one that didn’t come back. God bless you, and God Bless America.

You know what that entails; things such as utilities, insurance, cleaning supplies and, well, you know. Recently they have had to replace or repair parts of their deck before they could clean, stain and seal all the wood. If you are unable to or would rather not stop by the library, send them a check with your name, address and email to Friends of the Library PO Box 185 Rockaway Beach, Oregon 97136 A thought, with Veterans Day coming up, acknowledge someone special who has served our Country by making a donation in their name to the Friends of the Rockaway Beach Library. I love that idea! There are so many

birthdays this month! I will just start naming them, so if you run into any of them this month you can surprise them with a Happy Birthday greeting. Happy Birthday to Anne Savage, Julie Jones, Joe Warren, Debbie Bellport, Carolyn Walters, Robin Swain, Betty Buchanan, Mike Love, Louann Swanson, Danielle Hurd, Piper Savage, David Billion, Pork Martinez, Betty Baumgart, John Magnano and Myrna Riley. Where! That is a whole lot of November birthdays! And to all I have missed, Happy Birthday to You! I mentioned in one of past columns that there will not be a city sanctioned Christmas Tree Lighting after Thanksgiving. There will not be a Holiday Bazaar either. We have to worry about crowds gathering. Of course, the tree will be lit at the wayside, but no fanfare. But, the merchants will be open late on Black

Friday, with promises of discounts. Shopping local can go a long ways to helping our community come back to normal. Use your common sense though. Things are not normal. We need to social distance and

keep others in our community safe. There is a lot of us that really do not want to be around crowds. So, shop, social distance and find truly unique Christmas gifts in spite of the pandemic.

Caring for our veterans

​Michelle Jenck Director of Community Well-being Adventist Health

T

he COVID-19 pandemic has been difficult for almost everyone to navigate. Certain populations, such as veterans, may face even greater challenges under stressful circumstances. According to the National Center for PTSD, “the COVID-19 pandemic creates stressors like fear about getting sick, concern for loved ones, isolation, job loss and new childcare and family demands.” They note that many of the ways people normally cope, like eating out or going to the movies, are not an option. Without the usual coping mechanisms, it is critical that our veterans know about local care options and resources available to them. We asked our veterans’ services advocates to share how local veterans are coping with the anxiety, uncertainty and stress of the

pandemic, as well as other local and national events that are impacting people’s sense of safety and wellbeing. Are you seeing any trends with veterans needing or seeking additional services during the pandemic? The VA shut down community-based outpatient clinics for several months, only accepting urgent/emergency care, so a lot of routine healthcare was put off. This is causing delays in getting routine exams and health screenings, many of which also require transportation to Portland. During the pandemic, there have been more interactions with veterans seeking mental health support. Stress, uncertainty and civil unrest can impact individuals with PTSD, increasing paranoia, anxiety and depression. Treatment for these conditions are often being provided through telehealth. For many years, veterans

were required to receive their healthcare at a VA clinic or hospital, which we do not have in Tillamook County. Now, under the Mission Act (formerly called the Choice Act), veterans can access local care with prior approval. Going through that approval process is a service provided by our Tillamook County Veterans Services office, located at the County Courthouse in Tillamook. Are there common triggers or events that contribute to increased need for mental health services? Current civil unrest is putting veterans on edge. There has also been a rise in homelessness and substance use. Like many people, veterans have been impacted by unemployment during the pandemic. According to an article published in the Military Times, 54% of female vets have sought mental health support, compared to 31% of male veterans. It is thought that female vets are likely balancing more family responsibilities due to pandemic-related distance learning. Job loss is a concern for veterans, whose unemployment rate was 3.5% prior to the pandemic. That rate is now at 6.4%, which is still lower than for non-military peers at 7.2%. Military training and experience may contribute to increased adaptability and a more resilient perspective during the pandemic. What services, resources or connections does our county veterans services office provide? The top priority for veterans services is mental

eligible vets, under a tiered, income-based system. For example, if a veteran has a service-connected disability, they are fully eligible, while someone who is working may have coverage under their job and may be able to use their veterans benefit as a secondary insurance. Retirees on Medicare are also able to use their VA-sponsored “Tri Care for Life” benefits as secondary insurance. The key is for veterans to get enrolled, which they can do through our local veteran’s services office. Is there anything else we should share about veterans’ healthcare services? When veterans go to the Emergency Department, they visit will only be covered through the VA if they are notified within 72 hours of the admission. A medical staff personnel, family member or the veteran themselves must contact the VA Notification Hotline at (844) 724-7842.

All Tillamook County Veteran’s Services office staff attended a recent suicide prevention training called “QPR.” Most of the time when a veteran is in a mental health crisis, they are immediately taken to Portland for specialty care. What are some common outcomes for people who receive these services? While outcomes differ from vet to vet, many of them are able to completely avert such a crisis. Often, they may get their medications adjusted and they are always provided follow up care to help them manage and avoid future occurrences. How are these services covered? Many people assume the VA is a type of insurance, but it is actually a healthcare provider. The VA contracts with other entities (Tri West in Tillamook County) to provide insurance benefits for

DON’T YOU WANT TO TAKE ME HOME? Dory says “Look at me. Am I cute? I also have a brother. I promise we aren’t just about our looks. Can we join your family and show you how adventurous and playful we are, but also how snuggly we can be? We’d love to be adopted together. Two is always better than one. But one of us would be just as fun. Here’s the application if you’re interested in us. Also please share our pictures and story with everyone. It’s the holiday season, we’d love to join in on the holiday fun with you! Adoption fees range from $75-100.

United Paws is not a shelter, and most of our cats and kittens are in foster homes getting ready to be in your home!
