BOCC distributes $5.2 million in ARPA funding T

he Tillamook County Board of Commissioners, Mary Faith Bell, Erin D. Skaar and David Yamamoto met Wednesday, March 23 for their weekly board meeting at the county courthouse. The meeting covered 17 items including approval for Tillamook Public Works to purchase a 5-ton mini excavator and for Tillamook County Fairgrounds to make advances with their WiFi Project. The highlight of the meeting was a 3-0 commissioner approval of the distribution of money in the amount of $4.7 million of American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Funding Awards across 33 Tillamook County organizations. Tillamook County was awarded $5.2 million total in ARPA Funds, however, the county allocated $530,698 toward specific improvements, leaving $4.7 million to distribute for other projects. The federal government separately awarded The Rinehart Medical Clinic of Wheeler $674,000 in ARPA funding to relo-

cate their center. “This was a really difficult project because we received so many requests; we spent a lot of time in public meetings discussing this,” Commissioner Mary Faith Bell said. On the list of unfunded projects was the “Shilo Training Levee Repair” which requested $3.2 million for levee repairs benefiting the densely populated, developed area near Fred Meyer, Shilo Inn and Five Rivers Café. Tilda Chadwick Jones from the Tillamook Bay Flood Improvement District was disappointed that the Tillamook Board of County Commissioners trumped their own priority for ARPA funding. “BOCC is designating a very large percentage of the funds for bureaucratic nonpublic safety construction projects such as plans, assessments, digital systems, management and county employees benefits,” she said in an email to the Headlight Herald. There were 112 projects submitted by the community and by county

Tough break for 26 families evicted from Tillamook Coast RV Park Housing crisis leaves families with few options

Ashley Tike Staff Writer

unday, March 20, 26 families residing at the Tillamook Coast RV Park were served eviction papers and given either 30 or 90 days to vacate their spots. The RV park was recently bought by Casey and Riley Shannon, brothers from Bend, Oregon whom have major construction projects planned for the RV park. The Shannon family owns other RV parks across the state and they said they have goals of making improvements to the park and to hire new management. Adding that they are awaiting approval from the county to move forward with their plans. Lori Craig works at a Tillamook grocery store and was among those to receive eviction papers. “I find it really funny how everyone complains about the homeless problem and lack of housing yet the city and the county

EXCLUSIVE Tillamook Coast RV Park entrance. Photos by Ashley Tike leave,” she added. There is a housing crisis in Tillamook; the city offers slim options for low-income rental properties. Many of these residents have been at the Tillamook Coast RV Park for years and had plans to continue their stay as they hold jobs at Tillamook

Part of the issue residents are having is most RV parks do not allow converted buses or older model trailers. let developers come in and put people out of their homes, contributing to the problem,” Craig said. According to Craig, it’s difficult to find an RV park that will accept a converted school bus or any trailer that’s older or looks old. “I’ve been asking around and networking to see if anyone would take us but haven’t found anything yet,” She said “I work in town at a job that I love at the grocery store, I pay my bills in cash every month and I love living in this area but I feel like I’m being forced to

businesses. Families with young children, retired teachers and U.S. veterans living on a fixed income all called the Tillamook Coast RV Park home. They either can’t afford anything else, or have chosen the RV park lifestyle. U.S. Veteran, Tom Swanson ‘Swanee’ and his wife Kathy were upset they were served eviction papers with such little notice but have been lucky enough to already find a new place to go. “Take a look around, we’re on the verge and so is everyone else,” said Swanee “These 26 families could be out on the street after this, they have to move their trailers out and some don’t know where yet.” Swanee’s wife Kathy said that she will miss living at Tillamook Coast RV Park because of how quiet it is and the wonderful community of

ORIGINAL

people they have formed over the years. She said she loves fishing in the creek with her grandkids. The small RV park community has gone through a lot together; banding together through challenges including the COVID-19 pandemic, multiple accidental RV fires and 2 deaths that have occurred in the park in recent years. “Finding a new spot in 30 days heading right into the summer season is almost impossible,” Summer Wood a resident of the RV park said, “Most places are full, or won’t accept my large dogs or my trailer because it’s older than 10 years, I’ve been looking for somewhere and paying $55 for each park application.” Similar to applying for a lease to an apartment, there are multiple obstacles to go through to be accepted into an RV park long-term stay agreement. There are background checks, first and last month deposit payments; in addition, most Oregon RV parks raise their prices for the busy Summer season, in April. The timing of this eviction leaves these people to find a new place to call home in the most expensive time of the year. “It’s counterproductive for a town like Tillamook to do something like this, you kinda want to keep your workforce living at least in the Tillamook area, but they keep pushing the blue collar workers away because there’s no housing options,” said Lori Craig RV park resident. “Everyone in the park is scrambling to find a new place to go and it’s just sad to see everyone get uprooted, this is our home, we built a dog park and have a community garden,” Jesse Dupont said “These people haven’t had an easy time of things, they don’t have anyone to help them – I don’t know how they’ll handle this, they’ll have to find a way because they don’t have a choice.” Comments: headlightreporter@ countrymedia.net

IN HONOR OF GOD, FLAG AND NATION:

I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible with liberty and justice for all. Feb. 26, and .6% the week of Feb. 6 to Feb. 12. During the same week of the 20202021 season, a scant .1% of flu tests were positive. The vast majority of flu cases have been influenza A. Cieslak emphasizes that it’s still not too late to get a flu vaccine, and getting it now, as indoor and outdoor gatherings become more common, can help reverse the surge. Getting vaccinated can also reduce the severity of flu illness even if you get infected. Anyone ages six months and older should get the flu vaccine, particularly young children, older adults and those who have chronic conditions such as cardiovascular disease or metabolic diseases such as diabetes. Pregnant women should get vaccinated since children younger than six months can’t get the flu vaccine. When a pregnant woman gets the vaccine, it means she not only avoids serious

complications during pregnancy, but she also transmits, through the placenta, precious flu antibodies for her unborn child. Flu vaccine will not protect against COVID-19. That’s why it’s important to get the flu vaccine and the COVID-19 vaccine, both of which are available from health care providers, local health departments and many pharmacies in Oregon. The flu vaccine is free or low cost with most health insurance plans. To find flu vaccine clinic, visit www.flu. oregon.gov and use OHA’s flu vaccine locator tool. Getting vaccinated is the best way to prevent the flu, according to health officials. Additional ways Oregonians can help prevent the spread of flu include: • Staying home from work or school when you are sick and limit contact with others.

This month’s lifting of o lly state mask requirements put n- in place during the COVID-19 pandemic is prompting many Oregonians to remove their face coverings. Oregon health officials say it’s a good time to remind people about the importance of getting vaccinated against another circulating virus: influenza. Oregon is seeing a lateseason rise in flu cases – flu season generally peaks around late January or February – as mask requirements for public indoor spaces and schools fall away, making it easier to spread the virus from person to person, according to Oregon Health Authority communicable disease experts. “The 2020-2021 flu season was virtually nonexistent as public health restrictions, such as stayhome orders, mask requirements, and limits on indoor and outdoor gatherings, kept flu cases down at recordlow levels,” OHA’s Public Health Division Medical Director for Communicable Diseases and Immunizations Paul Cieslak, M.D. said. “Now we’re seeing more cases at a time when the season is usually coming to a close.” During the week of March 6 to March 12, Oregon reported that 3.1% of influenza tests were positive, compared with 2.5% the week of Feb. 27 to March 5, 1.6% the week of Feb. 20 to

• Avoiding touching your eyes, nose and mouth. • Cleaning and disinfecting surfaces and objects that may have flu germs on them. • Avoiding getting coughed and sneezed on. Influenza, also known as flu, is a contagious respiratory illness caused by influenza viruses, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The flu can cause mild to severe illness, and at times can lead

to death. Flu signs and symptoms usually come on suddenly, the CDC states. People who are sick with flu often feel some or all of these symptoms: • Fever* or feeling feverish/chills • Cough • Sore throat • Runny or stuffy nose • Muscle or body aches • Headaches • Fatigue (tiredness)

Some people may have vomiting and diarrhea, though this is more common in children than adults. *It’s important to note that not everyone with flu will have a fever.

CHAMBER CHATTER

Lots of Chamber events, projects on the horizon Justin Aufdermauer Executive Director

DISPATCH FROM THE WAVE Doug Pilant General Manager TCTD

his past month there has been a lot of buzz around town about the trolley that TCTD recently acquired. In this month’s edition of Dispatch from the WAVE, I want to share the District’s current and future plans for the trolley- now affectionately known as Holly the Trolley. It’s been a long-held desire of mine to bring a trolley to Tillamook County. There’s just something about a trolley that brings a smile to your face- in fact, that’s how Holly got her name. When our team member Danielle was driving Holly from her original home in Coos County to Tillamook County, Danielle on said she was greeted with four hours of non-stop smiles hat and waves. She nicknamed the trolley Holly because she made everyone “holly jolly”, and the name has stuck! For the immediate future, rs TCTD is looking forward to e- using the trolley in commur nity parades and as one of the ty vehicles providing service for the summer’s Pacific City Free Shuttle program (this will be the fifth year of the PC Shuttle program- more to come on that in a future article!)

Over the years, TCTD has continually received requests from throughout the community for shuttle services for both public and private events. The District has generally been unable to participate in these requests because of the Federal Transit Authority’s Charter Policy that governs how publiclyfunded vehicles can be used. Prior to the pandemic, TCTD staff learned of some coastal California transportation agencies who had worked to revise their Charter Policies to provide much-needed shuttle services in their rural communities. Now that the pandemic isn’t taking up quite so much of our time and resources to manage, we’ve been able to refocus on updating our Charter Policy. We hope to finalize these changes in the next few months. Once our new Charter Pol-

icy takes effect, TCTD will be pleased to make Holly the Trolley available for rentals for public and private events. The exact details of our rental policy are still being worked out but will mean that Holly and her trusty driver will be available for weddings, community events, conferences, and other rental requests. Our long-term plans will be to expand our trolley fleet and make “Tillamook County Trolleys” available to meet the needs and requests of groups throughout Tillamook County. TCTD is hard at work developing branding for this new enterprise for the District, and we can’t wait to have Holly and the eventual rest of our fleet rolling down the streets soon. I also want to include a big Thank You to our team of 37 drivers that keep all TCTD vehicles rolling. On March 18 we celebrated National Driver Appreciation Day, and thank everyone who participated in our Facebook shoutouts, acknowledging drivers who go above and beyond to serve our customers. As always, you can learn about current District happenings and find our service schedules on our website at www.TillamookBus.com and on Facebook at @TillamookBus.

ou know those times when you’re busy, busy, busy prepping for a million projects but don’t have any physical items or events to show for it quite yet? That’s where the Chamber is right now. We’ve got our noses to the ground and are full speed ahead on planning for several projects and events, even though it seems like we’ve been relatively quiet lately. Here’s quick overview of some of the things we’re working on — and that you can expect to hear more about soon. Downtown Tillamook Cleanup Scheduled for 8 a.m. – 12 p.m. May 7, this annual “spring cleaning” event brings volunteers together to beautify downtown Tillamook ahead of a busy summer of events. We’ll post a sign up link on our Facebook page and website soon. Cork & Brew Tour Back for the first time since 2019, the Cork & Brew Tour offers. We’re still in the early planning stages for the event, but I can tell you this: It’s officially set for Friday, June 17. Keep your calendar clear for that day if you’d like to attend. June Dairy Parade We love this annual tradition, which always takes place on the fourth Saturday in June (this year, June 25). We’re celebrating June Dairy Month and all the things that make Tillamook great with the parade theme, “Cheddar Days are Here Again.” Get to thinking about your float ideas now, and stay tuned for the roll out of our parade entry information and grand marshal nomination form. Tillamook Farmers Market You heard from Sayde, our Farmers Market Manager, last week about everything she’s got slated for the Tillamook Farmers Market this year. We can’t wait to catch some amazing live music and pick up local fruits and veggies! Behind the scenes, our staff is working on a brand update for the market, where we’ll polish up some of our marketing materials. We don’t expect any major changes, but we are excited for a fresh, updated look for our well-

loved market. This is one part of a larger branding effort that I’ll get into more later in this column. Young Pros Tillamook Our network of young professionals meets for its second event on March 30, where the members will learn more about each other and themselves with a fun yet insightful guided conversation. The Chamber team also is hard at work planning events for April, May and June. I look forward to watching this group grow and develop. Venture Coastward Adventure Guide The official visitor guide for the Tillamook Coast, the Venture Coastward Adventure Guide is a beautiful magazine the Chamber produces in partnership with Visit Tillamook Coast. We sent out a notice last week about advertising in the guide, and we’ll be updating information to for accuracy in 2022. The new guide should be printed come June, so keep your eyes peeled! Chamber Branding Update As I mentioned earlier, the Chamber is working on a branding update. This isn’t a total overhaul of our brand. In fact, we really love the reputation we’ve built in the community as a reliable, professional, personable and engaging organization that’s here to build a strong community where businesses can thrive, and we think our branding helps reiterate that. The branding update will help us maintain that reputation by polishing up our marketing materials. It’s a little bit esoteric because so much of it relies on “look” and “feel,” but it’s been a lot of fun to talk about how we can use colors, fonts and design to reflect the values and goals of the Chamber. Website Updates We’re auditing the websites we manage, including TillamookChamber.org and GoTillamook.com, to update pictures and ensure all the information provided on the sites is accurate for visitors. This process includes uploading our latest Chamber membership guide to our Chamber website, as well as reviewing and updating the business information that appears on the visitor-focused GoTillamook site.

You might remember reading about it in the Chatter. We are working to keep both the Chamber page and the new Explore Tillamook Oregon page active and engaging. Downtown Improvements The Chamber is supporting several projects in downtown Tillamook to update facades, renovate buildings and generally keep our downtown district a great place to do business. We’ve provided assistance on Tillamook Urban Renewal Assistance grants for some members. And we’re even updating our own rear façade! Watch for more information about that project (and a shiny new sign!) in the coming weeks. Jobs Posting Website It’s no secret that hiring is hard right now. In an effort to support our local businesses who are looking for employees — and to make it easier for potential employees to find work — we are developing a website for local job postings. Think of it like Indeed, but for Tillamook specifically. The website is still in the early planning stages, and I’ll continue to share updates as it rolls out and officially goes live. Shared Workspace Upgrades The Chamber offers a shared workspace for community members or visitors who need a location to work remotely or meet with their small groups. And the shared workspace is about to get a major upgrade. We plan to renovate the space into a private, enclosed meeting room with up-to-date digital tools to allow for any kind of meeting you might need. Once the project is done, the room will be available not just during Chamber business hours, like it is now, but also before and after hours, and on weekends. I’m especially excited about this project, because it fills a need in the community. There’s a lot of folks who rely on our shared workspace, and I look forward to be able to offer it for a greater range of hours to fit their needs. So yes, the Chamber is busy right now, and there’s a lot of great activities and projects and upgrades coming down the pike. I look forward to sharing more about each of these items in depth as they finish up. If all goes as planned, you’ll be reading about them in the Chamber Chatter soon. Until then, feel free to reach to email me at justin@ tillamookchamber.org if you have questions about these projects or any of the other work the Chamber does in our community. I’m always happy to share and receive new ideas for ways we can improve.

irst of all...some big news. Beginning April 4, the main library in Tillamook is adding some hours that will really help the patrons who work from 9 to 5. We will be staying open an hour later during the weekdays to give you time to stop in after work to pick up your books! As of April 4, our Tillamook hours will be 9:00 am - 6:00 pm, Monday through Friday. Saturdays, we will be open from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm. In the near future, we plan on being open even later, so stay tuned for details. Now, let’s talk about librarians. Did you know

that some of our staff members have a Master’s in Library and Information Science (MLIS)? Employees with this degree are generally the director, the managers, as well as the children’s, reference, and cataloging librarians. The rest of the staff does not require the MLIS degree, but several of our wonderful workers do anyway! Why would you want a master’s degree to work certain positions in a library? I could fill a book with the many reasons this is necessary. There is so much that goes into each of the various positions that require the MLIS...and the university upper level graduate school classes help pave the way. There are core classes that concentrate on general library practices, but there is always the opportunity to choose specialized classes that focus your learning in certain areas. Why is this? Because not every librarian works in a public library. Where else do librarians

h man, it has been a rough week. My brother, who is on his 10th year of battling pancreatic cancer, had to be rushed to the hospital with an internal bleed. He lives in Beaverton. Well, there were no ICU beds available anywhere in the Portland area. They finally found him one at Kaiser Sunnyside. He has received eight units of blood and been scoped from top to bottom, if you catch my drift. They can’t find the bleed. Today the have had him swallow a camera pill, very Star Treky, and we should get some answers tonight. We have all had extremely sleepless nights and cried until no tears come. Please keep him in your prayers. He says he is feeling better and is really hopeful. Dale and I are on vacation, and he has asked that we not return. He will see us when we get back. If anyone can beat this, Mike can. He is a Superman and keeps his positive thoughts at all times. (Though he did admit to me yesterday that he has wondered about that

several times.) Yes, we have been vacationing on Maui and have had a blast, until this week. Sun, surf and Mahi Mahi fish dinners. Life doesn’t get much better than that. Each evening Dale and I go down to the shore and I play my ukulele for an hour. I love it when I have crowds around me, then I know I have done a good job. I had one man thank me, and tell me his kids on the mainland were watching me as well. The song I sing at sunset had brought tears to his eyes and I had made his vacation. It doesn’t get any better than that. So, what a small world it is. Nightly, Carl, from Bay City would walk down and catch my last few songs. He and his wife, Marina were visiting Maui too. I think we have made a forever friend. Our vacation was a bright spot in the last two years for us. Things have changed, but we just found new favorite things to do. I thank God for the wonderful gift of Dale and I spending this time together.

n my way home from Portland one recent Saturday, I was listening to an NPR radio program that featured a guest who was lamenting the loss of the ability to focus that people today seem to suffer. (I regret not

paying more attention to the name of the guest, but then again, I was trying to stay focused on driving at the time.) The guest – let’s call him Josh – blamed a list of things on the inability to focus: lack of enough hours of good sleep, not eating properly, too much screen time (especially on our smart phones) and trying to do more than one thing at a time. Instead, we should be choosing one task at a time to complete without distraction. It was an interesting topic in the first place, but my attention was peaked as Josh explained the classic lack-

Jeff Hunter of Rockaway Beach has been enjoying all the nice cards folks are sending. His ALS has progressed and unfortunately he is now on Hospice. His wife is doing all she can to make him comfortable and I am proud how our community has stepped in to help too. If you would like to send a card, his address is PO Box 596 Rockaway Beach, 97136. His wife reads each and every card to him. Don’t forget to say a prayer for Nancy too. (His wife.) I received a call from Winnie Mercer that tickled me pink a few days ago. She told me about all the birds and kites soaring above the

paragraph quite relevant. Robin and Patti Swain are working hard putting together a volunteer roster for event and projects. I can’t tell you how much fun it is to be involved with a group like this. If you would like to join this group, email rockawayvolunteers1@gmail.com. Your life will change and you will make forever friends with folks in the group. That is how Dale and I became a part of the community 40 years ago. Many have moved, moved on or passed, but there are still folks we know and we still feel right at home when we see them! A special ‘hi’ to my friend, Pat Patterson. I know you read my column regularly and I thank you for that! If you are looking for a tax deductible donation for next year, and it is a totally worthwhile investment, consider donating to the Friends of Rockaway Beach Library. You can pick up a membership or donation form at the library. If you would rather send your donation in, send a check made out the Friends

on the list. Finding little bittercress that is about to go to seed is one instance. Or noticing a branch that has partly broken off a shrub or tree and needs to be removed. But having a list of any sort does help me keep on track. One thing I do need to be aware of when I make my weekly lists is how long I can comfortably work in the garden at any one time. I don’t have the stamina I used to have, and let’s not kid ourselves: as we age, the total time we can spend in the garden often diminishes. If you can work in short spurts of 8 or 10 minutes at a time before a break, that is ideal. But try to get at least 30 minutes total of this moderate exercise at least 5 days each week. Research has shown it helps lower blood pressure and cholesterol, helps with heart disease and diabetes, and may

slow osteoporosis. And the benefit I find most helpful is that gardening improves my mood. Too much strenuous exercise can be harmful, though, for those of us who may usually be sedentary all winter long. So it’s best to work up gradually to those 30 minutes each day, too. Stretching before and after working also keeps muscles from getting sore. Another benefit of working half-an-hour for five days means that the garden improves as well. You won’t feel so overwhelmed from the self-imposed need of getting a bunch of things accomplished in a day or a weekend. Oops. Here I was talking about concentrating and found myself off on a tangent of staying healthy. Proof that staying focused is not as easy as they make it sound.

On staying focused of-focus indicators such as going into the kitchen to get a cup of coffee but getting distracted by the mail on the table and forgetting why you went into the kitchen in the first place. This is something that happens to me every time I go into the garden – and I am sure other gardeners suffer from it as well. For example, I go to the potting shed for a tool and along the way I stop to pluck a few weeds from a pot along the path. Seeing that the petunia in the pot also needs deadheading, I pinch off the spent flowers and look for my weed bucket to put them in. Having found the bucket, I realize it is full and I need to dump it onto the brush pile. Which I do but, by then, I have totally lost the reason why I was pulling weeds anyway. Let alone the fact that I started by going into the potting shed for a tool. But at least I picked a few weeds and deadheaded the petunias. I find that in my gardening life, as well as my nongardening life, making a list is helpful to stay focused. At the beginning of each week, I find some small amount of time for a stroll in the garden to inspect it and make a list of what needs to be done that

week. Some weeks in the winter, it is as easy as “pick up sticks.” As the gardening year progresses into spring, the list, of course, gets longer and longer. I have a small notebook that I break down into days of the week on the right-hand page. On the left-hand side, I make a list of things I want to accomplish in the garden. Then I figure out how much time each task will take and double it because chores always take longer than we expect them to. Then I can plot out on each day what I think I can accomplish and assign that chore to a certain day. This has worked for me the last several years and I recommend it. Of course, it doesn’t always work as I am certain to find something that needs to be done immediately that has escaped noticed and entry

Are we to modify oath of office I’m pretty sure everyone in law enforcement in Tillamook County swears an oath that reads very much like this: I, (your name here) , do solemnly swear that I will support the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the State of Oregon, and the Laws thereof, and I will faithfully, honestly, and impartially discharge the duties of a Police

n Library Continued from Page A5 work? Let’s start with a big one. Librarian to the stars! Yes, you heard me right. Not long ago, I saw an advertisement for a Private Librarian for none other than Sir Elton John! Celebrities like Elton have oodles of documents, lyrics, photographs, recordings, videos, collections... all kinds of things that need organizing and cataloging. A librarian helps “Captain Fantastic” keep all of his things in order. And can you believe that Disneyland even has their own Archive Librarians? I can’t even imagine how much fun that would be.

Officer during my continuance therein, to the best of my ability, so help me God. I may not have the exact wording of the oath, but I’m sure the sentiment is identical. I guess if SASO (Second Amendment Sanctury Ordinance) passes, the oath will need to be modifiied as follows: I, (your name here) , do solemnly swear that I will support the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the State

of Oregon, and the Laws thereof, and I will faithfully, honestly, and impartially discharge the duties of a Police Officer during my continuance therein, to the best of my ability, so help me God. Said oath does not apply if I interpret, with my vast expertise of Constitutional law, that I don’t really have to follow the oath. Really, people, the Second Amendment is no danger and

Granted, those are rare positions, so let’s look at some of the more common directions you can go with a library degree. There are School Librarians that work in the K - 12 schools. In years past, many of these positions fell to budget cuts, but I am happy to slowly see the schools realize they just can’t do without a librarian. In higher education, there are Academic Librarians who are trained to help the college students get the information they need. There are also Law Librarians. These people may work in courts and law firms, conducting legal research and helping attorneys access the information they need. Some who get their MLIS end up as Medical Librarians.

I often see OHSU and other hospitals advertising for a librarian. They spend their days gathering, analyzing, and providing data to assist physicians in doing their jobs. Then there are Systems Librarians that keep software, online resources, and computers running smoothly. Can you believe there are actually Music Librarians? They are generally employed by university libraries and symphonies to keep collections in order. I haven’t even touched on Art Librarians, Media Specialist Librarians, or Corporate Librarians. As you can see, there are lots of options in this field of work. But we happen to think the best librarian jobs are right here at the Tillamook County Library.

Kudos to school board and superintendent Our TSD #9 Board of Education met Monday March 15 to discuss the business of educating our children. The meeting was an example of how extensive this responsibility is for the board, administration, staff and students in our challenging times. They discussed typical updates on school policy changes, state funding, grants and local foundation support, staffing, contract negotiations, and shared personal board member visits throughout the district’s buildings. But they also received an enthusiastic report from the alternative school, which provides a safe place for non-traditional learning; they listened to a heartfelt competition speech touching on challenges facing our local farmers and the toll this takes on their families; they previewed a student’s senior project called ‘Every 15 Minutes,’ which highlights the tragic consequences of impaired driving. And, finally, they heard a moving testimony regarding the challenges faced by an autistic staff member, who reminded us all to try to meet people where they are. I applaud Board Chair Matt Petty’s kudos to fellow board member Kris Lachenmeier, and the previous board, for their wise selection of Superintendent Curt Shelley, who has led us all through the last two challenging years. Under his guidance, the district was able to protect staff, maintain funding and protect, feed and educate our students, all the while trying to meet people where they are. Laurie Lamb Tillamook

I drive highways 6 and 30 and 101 often from Lincoln County to Clatsop County, and Tillamook County to Multnomah County. I see ODOT signs and feel buffers. I see the Oregon State Police. There are problems everywhere, but is Hwy 6 one of the most dangerous roads in Oregon? ODOT logs the hillsides of healthy straight grain fir trees.

uanita Mary Burkhalter, passed peacefully on August 13th, 2021 at Marque Rehabilitation in Forest Grove, OR, after a nine month battle of complications from surgery. Juanita was a very strong willed woman who fought every ailment and downfall that came her way. Juanita was born at the Naval Hospital in Boston, Mass., on May 17. 1942. She was Daughter of Bob Burkhalter and Mary Gibson. She attended Elementary School in Washington, DC and then went to Notre Dame Catholic School and Graduated from Suitland High School in 1960. After graduation, Juanita lived in Washington, DC, where she later met and married Donald Burgett, who was stationed at Bethesda Naval Hospital in Maryland. After Don’s completion in the Navy, they moved to Tillamook, where Juanita was working as a Postal Clerk in Lee’s Camp from her home. In 1977 she married Gene Widmer of Tillamook, where they ran a large Dairy Farm, taking active parts in the community, especially the Swiss Dairy Parade every year, where she was known to walk the entire parade with 5” heels on. Juanita enjoyed going And OSP sets speed traps in Bay City and Garibaldi. Otherwise most weekend mornings and afternoons, the disaster that is Hwy 666 is a racetrack for a select few. These offenders every weekend get no attention from OSP despite the regularity of their offense. I’m not going to call out the offensive drivers but to say they know they can drive as they like with impunity on paved highways like they have for generations off of them. They say if you want to steal something do it in broad daylight. ODOT and OSP are institutions that at the human level do a great job. At the administrative level I wonder what guides their daily decisions. Constantly in need of repair but with no solution or upgrades in sight Hwy 6 is the domain of motorized knuckleheads who have a pact with the devil may care attitude every weekend and holiday.

The library levy I know we have seen all the good reasons to have our library. One item mentioned in the past. The library was such a good deal the county will not let residents out side the county get a library card. If you go to the website a outside county resident can get a yearly card for $50.oo. I easily pay 10x that amount and don’t use the library. Doesn’t seem fair as a county tax payer. I would think that I would prefer to pay the $50. This needs attention of tax payers. Go to “Tillamook County Library” web site and “Get a Card”. One other concern with the

home to Maryland almost every summer, visiting her family and old friends. She also enjoyed making crafts, crocheting, and knitting, cooking, spending time with her family, and gardening. She had a deep love for all animals and enjoyed being out in the sunshine. Juanita had been employed at Fred Meyers in Tillamook until she took ill. She truly enjoyed working there and was a friend to everyone. Juanita was preceded in death by her parents, Max and Margaret, brothers, Buster and Richard, sister, Rena Belle, and first husband, Donald Burgett. She leaves behind her husband of 44 years, Gene Widmer, children, Terry Burgett, Melody Walker (David), Richard Burgett, Sabrina Burgett, and step daughter Linda Kay Widmer. She leaves behind grandchildren, Justin Burgett, Kaysha Smith, Felicia Smith, Sasha Burgett, Allen Hoffert, Emma Weiser, Richard Burgett Jr.,Lynn-Anne Burgett and numerous great grandchildren and a host of many friends. She was fondly known as Grammy to almost everyone. She also leaves behind her sister, Debbie Gibson and Mike Emery, and a host of nephews and nieces back home in Maryland. A celebration of life will be held on May 14th, 2022 at the Swiss Hall in Tillamook, 4605 Brookfield Ave at 3pm. We welcome all that loved her to come join the family to celebrate her life that she blessed us all with. Juanita was a kind and loving woman with a kindred soul, who is missed by many. She will forever be in our hearts. county is the day use card. The cost to a county resident is the same as a non county resident. This is due to county parks are self sufficient and rely on fees to cover expenses. Please note earlier in the month the sheriff’s department made a rescue on the Wilson River. They were patrolling with a drift boat and made the rescue. The boat was recovered with a county jet boat. I don’t believe any of the costs to the sheriff’s department were recovered through the county parks

On behalf of the Tillamook County Girl Scouts, we would like to thank the community for their support to help our girls reach their ambitious goals! A couple of local businesses went above and beyond this year. During their annual cookie sale, Girl Scouts learn goalsetting, decision-making, money management, people skills, and business ethics. There are currently sixteen members in Tillamook County that work together to participate in the largest girl-run business in the world. Despite the challenges of operating a business during a pandemic, five girls set especially high personal goals this year. Rowen Smialek and Taylor Speas set out to sell 2,022 boxes each; Kennedy Sigman, 1,500 boxes; Karley Sukanen and Makayla Workman, 1,000 boxes each. Achieving these goals requires countless hours after school and work, and this year required an extra helping hand to bring cookies to our county. In a normal year, the cookie inventory is delivered to Tillamook in two or three shipments. In 2022, with delays and driver shortages affecting all food manufacturers, the girls found out they would not be able to get their cookie inventory delivered. On short notice, Alex Cole, of 24/7 Auto, donated the use of a U-haul box truck so the initial order could be retrieved from Astoria by troop leader Erin Taylor. When the re-stocking delivery did not come through, our local TP Freight filled one of their trucks returning from Vancouver, WA. With help from these businesses and annual support from the Port of Tillamook Bay, these Girl Scout entrepreneurs have had a successful year. Proceeds stay local and fund activities that grow girls of courage, confidence, and character that make the world a better place. Cookie sales run through March 20, 2022. Find cookies by visiting https://www. girlscoutsosw.org/en/cookies/ find-cookies.html For more information

TRYING TO SEE

Memory: Our flawed friend

emories are protective, constantly working to edit our personal and social histories. Memory experiments have shown that our recollections, our remembered events, are shifting scenes. Each one is re-adorned with new elements when they come unbidden into our thoughts. Tidbits are added or discarded, and memories re-etched to fit our current self-image and life needs. This may sound like we’re all a pack of liars, but most of these editorial changes are uninvited and unconscious, though universally experienced. That’s why many eyewitness accounts, so reliant on memory, sometimes convict innocent people and acquit guilty people. In September 2018, US Senate Judiciary Committee hearings were held to consider Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s elevation to the US Supreme

Court. Late in the hearings, Dr. Christine Blasey-Ford was brought in and testified against Kavanaugh’s nomination. She claimed that one night thirty-six years earlier at a college party, a fellow student, Brett Kavanaugh, had tried to rape her. Her entire demeanor throughout her testimony radiated honesty, careful reflection, and refusal to be led into over-dramatization. Her testimony was compelling. Very clearly, she was telling her truth. She earned a Ph. D, is an experienced research psychologist, and is knowledgeable about the flawed nature of our memories. She readily admitted that some elements of her memory related to the incident in question were no longer accessible to her. Also, she had never wanted to testify publicly, but had tried to communicate quietly and privately with Congress a couple of months earlier

Vote Yes for the Library Levy!

Continued from Page A7 budget. It looks like another example of county residents paying more than their fair share. Need to make sense of these costs for a library and day use fees. Jake Rzuczek Tillamook

Tuesday, March 29, 2022

The Tillamook County Library System Operating Levy is on the May Ballot. Good News – The levy rate remains unchanged from 5 years ago. If you factor in inflation since the 2017 levy, the new levy is actually 8% less! Also, the 2003 library building bond that you currently now pay taxes on will expire in 2023. That decrease will be reflected in your taxes as well.

regarding her concerns about Judge Brett Kavanaugh. After her testimony, her credibility and career have been trampled on by powerful but feckless Senators in hot pursuit of their own interests. Clearly, she has memories of a traumatic experience that happened to her many years earlier. Was it really Kavanaugh who tried to rape her, or was it someone else whose identity her memory replaced with that of Kavanaugh? Several times during earlier years she had told this same There are many things to celebrate about our library system, especially many of the online services, that have helped us all get through the pandemic. Now that we are starting to go back to the physical libraries, it’s wonderful to have branch library services! I recently drove from North County to South County and realized once again how long our county really is! Having local branches and the bookmobile really allows many more residents to take advantage of the library services. The branch libraries are in buildings owned and maintained by groups in the city they serve. The Library System provides the staff, books, shelving systems, and computers. In our branch library in Rockaway Beach, we have a shelf devoted to books written by local authors! How nice to be able to personalize our branches for our community! Very soon the branches and the bookmobile will have notary services available!

story to her husband, to a few close friends, and a therapist, mentioning Kavanaugh by name. That was at a time before he had ascended the federal courts’ food chain and entered into the public eye. Judge Kavanaugh’s counter-testimony was also convincing, though highly emotional and overwrought, asserting he had been wrongly accused. His testimony had the quality of truth about it. But had his own memory long ago papered over a destructive act from his youth to allow him to have a good opinion of himself as an adult and a judge? Researcher Karim Nader showed strong evidence that having a past event pop into our head, makes it vulnerable to change in those same moments we remember it prior to replanting it in our mental memory files. Other memory researchers have validated his findings and expanded them.

Memory can paper over the experience of how we were bullied or abused, how we lied and hurt someone, or embellish how we first fell in love. By far the greater part of these are not dishonest acts, but only tweaked protective actions which contribute to our definitions of who we are, and help us mature and redefine ourselves. Regardless of our personal opinions about Dr. Ford and Judge Kavanaugh, we know with certainty that physical domination of women by men has been widespread throughout history and it continues with the same frequency today. Acknowledging the facts of human history and hearing the stories of the “#me too” movement, it is necessary that when a woman tells of abuse by a particular man, she should be believed until her testimony is shown to be false. Nothing in Dr. Ford’s past

indicates she would lie to ruin a man’s career. What could she gain: more death threats than she and her family have since then received? As for Judge Kavanaugh, he had everything to gain by denying any involvement or knowledge of that past attack. To give even a hint of possible guilt, would have ended his career. In a calculated bow to Ford’s honesty, he acknowledged her traumatic event may well have happened, but said it was not him that carried out the attack. Did he need to forget that attack, and in preceding years paper over it to allow him to develop a better opinion of himself? We’ll probably never know the truth, though most people already have decided their own version based purely on their personal and political preferences. We all have our preferences and our own flawed memories.

Additionally, you can use the fax and scanning services at the branch libraries for free! If these branches didn’t exist, many residents would have to drive well over an hour to get to the Tillamook County Library. No wonder I saw many “Support the Library Levy” signs on my drive. Given all the good that the library brings to our communities, from young kids’ story time to older adults using their well- deserved retirement to read books and enjoy movies, it is difficult for me to understand how we could do without our libraries!

“home.” Our Tillamook County Library system is a vital service to North Coast rural communities. The main and its branch libraries provide books, videos, magazines and other services to all our citizens. Libraries are great equalizers; meeting places for people from every walk of life: • Programs for children, including support for parents home-schooling their children during Pandemic school closures. • Bookmobile service for those unable to get out; isolated seniors especially benefit from the connection a bookmobile can provide to the wider world. • Book kits for book clubs provide a no-cost way for friends to discover and discuss new authors and ideas. • Those without internet access can access library Wifi and use branch computers to do essential on-line tasks, such as job applications. • Many towns lack businesses that provide copy services; libraries provide copy machines for public use. Our libraries are central to community life. Please vote in support of Measure 29-164 to keep our library system operating for all of us.

and I turned from Highway 101 onto Laneda Avenue. Within two blocks we’d made our decision! “I want to live in a town with a library like that,” one of us said to the other. That was even before we knew about our library’s impressive public/ private ownership or that the library in Manzanita is North County’s branch of Tillamook County Library system with its six locations and bookmobile. Having served as Membership Chair on the Library Friends Board for two terms, I know the value of our Library as reflected in this community’s dollar donations and volunteer hours which maintain the Library’s building and grounds. Co-ordinating Magazine Sales for eight years, we witnessed the love and support for the Library from visitors and tourists as well as community residents. Our Library is a Tillamook Treasure - with books, movies, reading and learning programs, Wifi services, kits for book groups, online and curbside service, a children’s room and the Bookmobile. To keep our Library and the Tillamook County Library system open, vote YES on the upcoming Library Levy. Remarkably, the tax levy will remain unchanged, at 65 cents per $1,000 of assessed value. It’s up to all of us in Tillamook County to keep our libraries alive and vibrant. Please join us in voting YES for the Library Levy.

Jean Scholtz Rockaway Beach resident since 2006 Current President of the Friends of the Rockaway Beach Library

Keep our libraries open to keep our communities thriving Here in Tillamook county many businesses and services cater to visitors. While t-shirt and boogie board rentals shops dominate our main streets, locals often must travel great distances to find services to meet their everyday needs. The dominance of tourist economy makes it all the more important that our towns include places for locals to gather, to get information, and to support the day-to-day needs of all. A library fulfills some of this need. It is a cultural hub and trusted resource for those who call a small town,

THE BUZZ ABOUT BEES Claire Mmdy Education director Tillamook Beekeepers Assoc.

here’s a saying among beekeepers. “A swarm in May is worth a load of hay. A swarm in June is worth a silver spoon. A swarm in July isn’t worth a fly.” Swarming is the way nature spreads honey bee colonies. It’s like young people going off to start a new household. When the fruit trees are in bloom and there’s lots of nectar and pollen, the queen is laying 1,500 eggs a day! The colony grows to 50 - 70,000 bees. They get very crowded. It’s time to swarm, one of the most fascinating events in the story of honey bees. Half the bees in the colony and the current queen will fly off but before that happens the bees have to make a new queen who will take over. To

make a queen the bees enlarge some of the cells to look like the shell of a Planters Peanut™. The queen has a long, slender body and needs that space. Several very young larvae are fed royal jelly by the nurse bees for six days. Worker bee larvae get royal jelly for only three days. The extra three days is what makes a queen, a queen. The colony might make twenty or more potential queens but the first one that’s born kills all the rest of them! She has a stinger that is only used to kill other queens and unlike workers, she can sting repeatedly. Before a colony swarms they have to put the queen on a diet so that she can lose weight and fly! They stop feeding her and chase her around the hive! She still can’t fly far so the swarm of bees usually lands on a tree or something not very far from

their old home. They hang in the shape of a pineapple and the queen is safe and warm in the middle. They usually stay there for about 24 hours. In the last article I told you about some of the jobs of the worker bees. One job I didn’t mention is to find a new home and it takes scout bees to do that. In fact, about five hundred scout bees scour the environment looking for the perfect home, an old tree

with just the right size cavity in it. If they can’t find that they look for alternatives. As each scout bee returns to the hanging ball of bees she does a dance on the outside of the ball. The more vigorous the dance the better “the find”. She’s trying to convince other scout bees to come check out the spot she found and they do. When the scouts agree on the best location, it’s decided! Off the swarm flies to their new home. Thomas Seeley of Cornell University wrote a book about it called Honey Bee Democracy. Sadly, only about 20% of the swarms in the wild find a good enough space to survive the winter. That’s why a swarm in July isn’t worth a fly. They have zero chance of building comb and collecting enough nectar to survive. Enter a beekeeper! We love swarms! To buy a colony of bees costs about $150.

For additional interesting information about honey bees check out the Tillamook Beekeepers Association website: www.tillamookbeekeepers. org. Prior articles can be found in the section titled “About Bees”. Claire Moody is education director for the association and can be reached at clairemoody503@ gmail.com.

there are other good alternatives that cause less damage to roads, including other types of traction tires and newer chains that are much easier to use. A 2014 study concluded studded tires cause about $8.5 million in damage each year to state highways.

a little crazy. Then a swarm landed in my blackberries. A friend came and shook them into a box. He left the box there for a few days and by that time I discovered I could sit and watch them and they totally ignored me! I told my friend “Those bees chose me! I’m keeping them.” That was seven years ago and you know the rest of the story. Honey bees are awesome, amazing, useful, important, and gentle most of the time.

TREE PROBLEMS?

Studded tire season ends March 31 Oregon Department of Transportation reminds you that Spring is here and it’s time to take off the studded tires. Oregon drivers have until Thursday, March 31 to remove them. “Drivers are encouraged to not wait until the March 31 deadline to remove their studded tires, especially if they aren’t driving in the mountain passes between now and then” said Luci Moore, State Maintenance and Operations Engineer. While studded tires are allowed in Oregon from Nov. 1 through March 31,

Swarms are free and they are usually healthier than the bees we buy. They are primed to generate nice, fresh wax and produce comb very fast. This brings me to YOU!

TILLAMOOK COUNTY WELLNESS Michelle Jenck Director of Community Well-Being at Adventist Tillamook

ealth is most often measured in numbers our blood pressure, blood sugar (or A1c), cholesterol, weight, waist circumference, and so on. While these are important measures and they do tell us a lot about our risk for diseases (which we now know to be preventable by as much as 80%!), moving these numbers is harder than we ever imaged. The further away we get from our “ideal” numbers, the harder it is to achieve them. This has caused a shift in how we approach health and well-being. While those numbers are important, they may be secondary to other key factors which we also know contribute to a person’s health; such as how we feel about ourselves, how equipped we are in life to pursue and attain our goals and how well we are able to maintain healthy relationships with others. Interestingly, our biometric scores and our social and mental well-being are in fact interconnected. How we live our lives, what we eat, how we move our bodies, how much we sleep, the choices we make around our entertainment, our friend groups and use of to-

Which way to wellness?

bacco, alcohol and other addictive substances, all determine those health numbers. Because each of those choices is serving a purpose in our lives, it can be very difficult to change those behaviors. Instead of “giving things up,” we may have more success adding something we value even more. By focusing on positive, social actions we can take in our daily lives, we may actually have a better chance of moving our health numbers in the right direction. Exploring activities that bring us a sense of joy and fulfillment can be very motivating and contagious. It’s a great way to meet new people, build self-esteem and grow in our personal and professional lives. Our peer groups and associations influence our behaviors. When we join activities where people are modeling healthier behaviors, we are more likely to adopt them by default. It is important to recognize that the path to wellness looks different for each person. We all have different interests that motivate us as well as different challenges or barriers that prevent us from sticking to healthy habits. By looking at the things we want to do, we stand a much better chance of getting on - and staying on - a path to well-being. To help you navigate what

that path might look like, we have developed a handy map of fun activities. We have many local options for investing in ourselves, connecting with others, exploring the outdoors, enjoying locally produced foods and more. You may even think of some things we haven’t included. The point is, there is no wrong path as long as it is leading toward a healthier, happier you. As an added bonus, visiting points along the map gives you a chance to win prizes, such as movie tickets, hydro flasks, county and state parks passes, Tillamook County Fair tickets, gift cards to local businesses, and more. Winners will be selected at random from group events and activities April 6th through October 31st. This program is free and everyone is welcome to participate. You are automatically eligible to win prizes for inperson activities such as walking groups and hikes, fitness classes, visiting Food Roots and attending local workshops. Sometimes we just can’t make classes or other activities fit into our busy schedules. Don’t worry – we have you covered too.

The Sand Lake Restoration Project is located on the Hebo Ranger District of the Siuslaw National Forest and includes approximately 7,150 acres on National Forest Systems lands north of Pacific City on the Oregon coast. The project was proposed to promote the development of late-successional forest, improve the quality and diversity of important habitat, and provide timber products. The Phase 2 draft decision intends to proceed with a portion of the activities proposed in Alternative 2 of the FEA, called Alternative 2 Phase 2, which includes approximately 220 acres of heavy thinning and early successional treatments, 24 miles of multi-use trail construction, co-designation of 8 miles of roads to multi-use trails, and 2.5 acres of parking areas. The environmental consequences of the alternatives considered in the Sand Lake Restoration Project FEA and how each alternative complied with applicable law, regulation, and policy was evaluated in making the draft decision, as well as considering multiple views and social values that are important to the community. The Sand Lake Restoration Project FEA, draft Phase 2 DN/FONSI, and other relevant documents are available on the Siuslaw National Forest website at: http://www.fs.usda.gov/ project/?project=53176.
