n April Wed. April 6, Tillamook Police Department assisted in conducting a mock traffic crash in the turnaround area in front of the Tillamook High School as part of the Every 15 Minutes Program. The Every 15 Minutes program is a two-day program focusing on high school juniors and seniors. The program challenges them to think about drinking, driving, personal safety, the responsibility of making mature decisions and the impact their decisions have on family, friends, and many others. During the first day, pre-selected students were pulled out of class every 15 minutes to signify the national average of someone being injured or killed in a DUII related crash. This day was highlighted

CHILDCARE CRISIS

Lack of available options leave parents without options F

inding childcare in Tillamook County is difficult to say the least. The lack of childcare options in Tillamook County severe and it has been for a while; the pandemic hasn’t made the situation better. It’s directly impacting parents, especially mothers, ability to have the option to get out into the workforce. Across all of Tillamook County, which includes Bay City, Beaver, Cloverdale, Garibaldi, Hebo, Manzanita, Nehalem, Neskowin, Netarts, Oceanside, Pacific City, Rockaway Beach, Tillamook and Wheeler, there are currently zero childcare openings for a child aged 18 months and under right now, and most places have a waitlist regardless of age. In addition, childcare options for toddlers and school aged children are also slim-to-none with waitlists a mile long and schedules that don’t co-inside with normal working hours. If you are lucky enough to find a childcare provider the cost is often pretty expensive for young families. Each county in the state of Oregon has a Child Care Resource and Referral (CCRR) program; which according to the website, “Exists to support child care and education providers in the region and make sure they have access to the trainings and opportunities that can help them meet the needs of children and families.” The resource and referral network process currently has a program that provides training and education opportunities for aspiring childcare professionals.

Tillamook High School students participate in the Every 15 Minutes program that teaches, hands-on, the dangers of drinking and texting while driving. Pictured is a mock DUI fatal crash scene students act through during an assembly in front of the school as part of the program.

Wheeler neighbors fighting back against theft in their town

ORIGINAL

While there are resources in place to help get childcare businesses up and running, Tillamook County is currently considered a “child care desert” because the child to provider ratio is so high. The lists of childcare options provided by the website ‘211.org/ parenting’ and ‘Find Childcare Oregon’ are oftentimes inaccurate or not updated for Tillamook County, sifting through the options can be difficult as a new parent or someone who recently relocated to Tillamook County. The website lists that Tillamook County hosts 8 home daycare providers in the entire county; the providers for the area include; T’s Sitting Services, Candy’s Child Care, Irene’s Family Child Care, Rebecca Clifton Child Care, Jessica Child Care, Ocean Breeze Daycare, Mary’s Day Care and Isabel Orozco Child Care. After calling each of these places the total current openings is 2, both for a child aged 6 and up for “after school care”. Rebecca Clifton, a home childcare provider based in Tillamook said, “I’m full and I have been for a while, it’s really hard to turn people away, finding quality childcare is such a serious issue.” Clifton said she has heard stories of people having to place their children in sub-par care situations to continue to pay their bills, “People are so desperate they are sending their children to chaotic places that aren’t licensed and overloaded with kids and their children are not receiving proper care but they don’t have another option.” According to a study done on Oregon’s Child Care Deserts in 2020 by Oregon State University for the Oregon Early Learning Division, Tillamook County had a total of 34 total childcare spots for kids ages 0-2 and 213 spots for kids aged 3-5 making a total of 247 childcare spots in the entire County.

Should you have any questions regarding the program, please contact Lieutenant Nick Troxel of the Tillamook Police Department at 503.842.2522 or ntroxel@tillamookor.gov.

A county is considered a childcare desert by the state of Oregon if fewer than 33% of the county’s children have access to a slot. The study shows that the entire state or Oregon is currently a childcare desert. This is pre-pandemic data, after talking with childcare providers in the area, the pandemic did not help the dire situation. There are 10 childcare centers / preschools in Tillamook County providing certified care for children. If these centers have an opening, most accept children ages 3 and up. The list of centers includes; Tillamook Early Learning Center, Imagination Education Creation DayCare, Tillamook YMCA, Tillamook Head Start, Tillamook School District #9, Nestucca Valley ELC, Tilly Tots Preschool (closing 2022), New Discoveries Preschool, ABC preschool kindergarten and Columbia Pacific Headstart. The Headlight Herald reached out to the Northwest Regional CCRR director Eva Manderson to find out why the lack of childcare is so complicated to solve. “Childcare providers are often not given the professional respect and are not paid for the hard work that they do; they are paid what parents can afford, until we figure out how to fix those fundamental problems it’s hard to find change.” Manderson added that funding can come from employers or from the state and she said that different ideas are currently being wrestledwith in legislative meetings. With greater access to reliable and affordable childcare, Tillamook parents would have the potential to increase their household income and parents would have the choice to seek career opportunities. Not to mention, the mothers or fathers that are currently at home taking care of their children could fill some of the

network of criminals are victimizing a small neighborhood in Wheeler. According to neighbors and local shop owners, the problems are stemming from a specific house, an alleged regular location for drug-related activity, theft and public disturbances. Those who have lived in the area for a while said that it’s a problem that’s been going on for a long time. Most recently in this neighborhood, a truck and tools was stolen from a driveway while the owner was inside asleep. “It’s been crazy, we just want to live peacefully and these people have been wreaking havoc at all hours of the night and have been stealing from others for years,” said Peggy and Robert Schumann. The neighborhood is gathering all of the evidence they can to share it with law enforcement and in hopes that something changes. The exterior and interior of the house in question are in complete disarray; the exterior of the house is falling apart onto the ground, polluting the area and exposing the air to cancer-causing asbestos. An elderly woman, who carries the loan on this house said in an email, “My hands have been tied legally because they technically own the property, I was told since I’m only the lender, I have no recourse. They have kept up with payments through ‘GUARDIAN’ and this makes it out of my hands in court as far as foreclosure.” Neighbors in this part of town have spent small fortunes to prevent the thieves from stealing their belongings from their properties, to no avail. The Schumann’s said they have built fences, installed cameras and patrolled the area the best that they can and because of this, their apartment building has been sitting empty without tenants for 18 months. “We own an apartment complex right near this area and because of all the issues, four families cannot rent these apartments until we feel they are safe to rent. It just wouldn’t feel right putting a young family or really anyone in there just to be stolen from and woken up at all hours of the night,” said Robert and Peggy Schumann. According to security camera footage, put up in a desperate attempt to stop the illegal activity from

happening, the video shows two men stealing a truck out of a driveway while the owner was in the apartment asleep. This incident was reported to the Tillamook County Sheriff’s department in early April. The neighbors of the house on Rector will continue to document suspicious, illegal and dangerous activity on video and hope that something is done to hold someone accountable. Law enforcement and city officials are doing all they legally can to get these problems taken care of. The laws that the voters of Oregon have put into place have made policing and holding criminals accountable extremely difficult. “We are dealing with a well connected network of people running around stealing property to sell for money,” said a Wheeler local business owner who would like to remain anonymous. The uptick in crime in Tillamook County is raising eyebrows and has people hoping that property thieves will be stopped. In recent years, the crimes that were considered big offenses, have since been decriminalized by the voters of Oregon. As more of the ‘lenient approach to crime’ legislation continues, less and less people are being held responsible for their actions on the streets. The incidents that are taking place in the small neighborhood of Wheeler are a prime example of crime trends taking place in all of Tillamook County. In conversations with the Tillamook Sheriff’s Department PIO Paul Fournier clarified that in the state of Oregon, no one goes to jail for stealing a car anymore, there is no ‘grand theft auto’ these days, it’s now called ‘unauthorized use of a vehicle.’ He said that officers are doing their job by siting and releasing the person and then look to the District Attorney for the rest. Doug Honeycut the mayor of Wheeler said they have started discussions in regards to starting a neighborhood watch group and they are working closely with Manzanita Police and Tillamook County Sheriff’s Department to do everything they can in the fight against property crimes in Wheeler. Honeycut said, “We are frustrated with the petty theft and we are telling people to get security cameras and proper lighting in your homes to keep it secure.” Comments: headlightreporter@ countrymedia.net

Healthcare professionals brace for another COVID spike Ashley Tike Staff Writer

As the Northeast part of the United States is seeing an increase in positive COVID-19 case numbers the western part of the country is bracing themselves for what’s to come. Ed Colson from the

Tillamook County Community Health Center said that he encourages everyone to get vaccinated and they are closely monitoring numbers for our area. Eric Swanson from Adventist Health Tillamook said that he is tracking a new metric; “I’m watching

the percentage of COVIDlike illnesses showing up in the ER.” For the 3,786 emergency department visits in the past week, 1.76% of them were for COVID-like illnesses, previously this number hit 3%, “It’s a good surveillance tool.” Tillamook County has been significantly impacted by COVID-19 over the course of the pandemic with a

When forced to make the decision to spend a very significant portion of their income on childcare, find cheaper but lower-quality childcare, or leave their job and become a stay at home caregiver to their child, there is really only one option that makes sense. Jaimie Rhodes from the Tillamook Early Learning Center (TELC) said that there

is a serious childcare crisis in Tillamook County and in rural America as a whole, “Many people are interested in improving the childcare situation but Oregon is very bureaucratic and it’s easy to get lost in the layers.” Rules and regulations placed on childcare centers/ providers are strong with a lack of financial support to uphold the weight. Rhodes

said that she hopes future legislation will follow through with changes. May 6th is childcare provider appreciation day, join Child Care Aware of America and other organizations nationwide in recognizing the important role childcare providers have on this day.

Bring Back the Natives – Spring Plant Sale goes online Tillamook, OR. As you prep your garden this year – make sure to incorporate some native plants! To “Bring Back the Natives”, Tillamook Estuaries Partnership (TEP) is taking their annual spring native plant sale online this year. “We have had incredible success taking our native plant sale online last year and we are excited to offer another opportunity for community members to purchase native plants this spring” said Jesse Kane, Community Engagement and Education Coordinator for TEP. “We hope that even though the community can’t visit our native plant nursery right now, they’ll still take the opportunity to bring a few new plants home.” Native plants - those that occur naturally in a region in which they evolved - are the foundation of our natural ecosystems and help protect biodiversity. They provide food and vital habitats for native wildlife. Landscaping choices have meaningful effects on birds and insects, as well as other plants and animals. Natural landscaping, also called native gardening, is the use of native plants, including trees, shrubs, groundcover, and grasses which are indigenous to the geographic area of the garden.

Last Thursday evening, Tillamook County Sheriff’s Office Deputies arrested Alex Wesley Morlang Hurley, 26, of Tillamook, on multiple charges stemming from a motor vehicle crash which occurred On March 31, 2022, on Kilchis Forest Rd. The investigation revealed that Hurley was the driver of a vehicle with three other male adult occupants when they left the gravel roadway, struck a tree and plummeted down a steep embankment, landing partially in the river below. Two passengers were able to free themselves from the vehicle and walked to a residence to call for help. Hurley stayed with the vehicle until first responders arrived and was then flown by helicopter to a Portland area hospital. A rear seat passenger was located deceased in the vehicle.

nowing I would be out of town this week, I wracked my brain in advance for a topic you, dear readers, might be interested in. I came up with BEACHCOMBING! First a disclaimer: Beachcombing isn’t what it used to be. In the past, spring storms with strong winds would last days, pummeling our westfacing bedroom window. That was when we knew it was time to beachcomb. But in the last five or so years, the pattern has changed. Winds have not been so westerly, so strong, or of multi-day duration. Beachcombed treasures have been scarce. But, oh, the

promised to update readers on my progress hiring a building contractor. A windstorm early in December downed a tree into the front porch of my hundred year old house. I filed an insurance claim and received a chunk of cash for repairs in no time. But It’s been four months without a bid. Of my favored two local builders, who advertise in this publication and on the grocery carts where I shop, one has driven by the house and ruled out the project, the other has never gotten back to me after promising a bid. A Lincoln City outfit took photos and measurements, but has not provided a bid. Literally dozens of others never returned my calls. I do have neighbors, probably weary of looking at the damage, who are researching the process of jacking up the deck, when

I was impressed by all of the empty shelves; only a few bolts, a tub full of one yard cuts, and a few fat quarters remained. I bought three yards of cotton fabric in a neutral yellow color with subtle pattern, to sew myself a summer top. It was a fun errand. It was great to visit with Rose Warton while I was there. She mentioned that Mike MacNeel passed away in March. He and his wife Suzie ran a convenience store in what has recently been the rug shop at the intersection of Bridge Street and U.S. Highway 101 in downtown Cloverdale. She mentioned too, that we

He had seen a shiny spot, about the size of a quarter, indicating something was buried in the sand. He dug it up to find an exquisite little green glass ball. Those finds were serendipitous. Later on, however, we set out specifically to beachcomb. Occasionally, we did find glass floats: a large, dark green glass ball surrounded by seagulls picking at its cover of algae; a basketball-

They rented the house across the pasture from our place and ran South County Motors and Hardware. We had been told by our realtor that people in South County weren’t welcoming, and Bonnie certainly proved that to be

sized float rescued just before the ocean could sweep it out to sea; floats shaped like roller pins; a clear glass float hidden inside a black plastic clam shell. But as glass floats were replaced by plastic floats, we looked for other treasures. We collected foreign glass bottles with etchings of pagodas, battle scenes, and sea creatures. We found red light bulbs, presumably lost from foreign fishing boats. There have been messages in bottles: six, so far! Our favorite was a note from the father of the bride, apparently having drunk most of a bottle

of red wine he had bought for his daughter’s wedding before stuffing his note in said bottle to throw it into the Umpqua River. Our best beachcombing find, however, has to be Hotei. We found him in spring 2014, a 2011 Japanese tsunami relic, face down in the sand on Bayocean Spit. He looked like a turkey leg, but Pete said, “It’s a carving.” We turned him over, discerning a Buddha-like rotundness to the 15” tall chunk of wood. He was covered in algae. Once cleaned up, however, his smiling face was revealed. Hotei is the

god of good health and abundance; one of the seven gods of good fortune in Japanese mythology. He is depicted as a balding old man, holding the world in his hand and carrying his few possessions in a cloth sack on his back. A beachcombed treasure, indeed!

I got to know Bonnie quite well during the years that we were in a book group together, after Al’s passing; she hosted our group at Christmas. I remember her living room simply overtaken by holiday decorations. I learned through my friends in Hebo Women’s Book Club that our former cohort, my friend Sue Gabriel also recently passed away. I met Sue while I was on the Board with the Neskowin/Nestucca/Sandlake Watersheds Council. Sue was a landowner adjacent to a bridge project that the Council took on.

MultiPartisan PAC formed in Tillamook County

A unique Political Action Committee has recently organized in the County. A Just Right formed a little more than a month ago and has raised over $3,600 of their goal of $5,000. Funds will be used on a county-wide awareness campaign to oppose a measure on the upcoming May 17th ballot. A spokesperson for the committee shared the impetus for organizing; “The loudest voices in politics are on the far right and far left and they are in the minority. For too long they have represented us all without our consent. It has led to extremism. It does not appear that leadership from any party will take the initiative to address the situation. We are simply a group of concerned citizens that have wildly varying views on many things. But we all agree that the divisiveness in our country and county stems from the pull from both sides. Therefore, we are actively stepping into the middle.” They went on to say that the name, A Just Right, was chosen because “we fundamentally believe in the Constitution and the privileges and protections it affords all citizens and residents of the United States. We have gathered together to protect a right that is just and true while also opposing a measure that pretends to protect it. The measure title is a lie and we will not use it. Many of us are gun owners. We believe in the Second Amendment and the right to bear arms. If ever it were threatened, we would fight to defend it. In essence, that’s what we’re doing now. We also chose the name because it sounds like adjust right. We are asking some folks to adjust TO the right a bit. We are asking that they recognize that even those we disagree with deserve to be heard. Let us find appreciation for one another and this includes our differences. The same term can be applied in a totally different way. Some members of our group describe themselves as the descendants of ‘proud Lincoln Republicans.’ They have been burdened with the

CHAMBER CHATTER

Welcoming John Jackson to the Chamber Board John wants to lend his fundraising knowledge and hospitality experience to the Chamber Board. He said he looks forward to working with other board members to “learn as much as I can about being on a board” and help build a strong community where businesses can thrive. “I’m really impressed with the work that the Chamber does in the community. I’ve lived in other cities where the Chamber is kind of rag tag, but in Tillamook it’s very professional and well put together,” John said. John also volunteers with the Tillamook School District and recently joined the local Oddfellows group. He also is a three-time life saver. “I’ve helped saved someone’s life three times. Twice It was with the Heimlich Maneuver, and one was preventing someone from drowning while snorkeling in Hawaii,” he said. I am excited to work with John, and I think his knowledge from nearly three decades in the hospitality industry will prove extremely insightful for the Chamber Board. If you catch John out in the community or while grabbing beers at the Pelican Tap Room, be sure to say hi and congratulate him on his new position.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Open Letter to TPUD Board of Directors

I write to you regarding the Transmission line to Oceanside. I appreciate your time and energy serving the People’s Utility District of Tillamook County. This transmission line project has been a long process and it’s coming down to Land and Rates both of which greatly affect the People of our county. My name is Jesse Borough, I was borned and raised in Tillamook. I graduated High school in 2001. I love our community, we have something very special here, the People are community driven and come together to help a neighbor in need. This is rare to find in this world. People that have moved to Tillamook have told me that “ we are different, we are close knit.” That makes me smile with pride. I would like to give you a couple examples of this that I have been involved with over the last couple of years. September 7, 2020 The east winds hit Tillamook and the Pike fire became a threat to our forests. Instantly the people of Tillamook County

stood up and took action. We united together to fight against the fire that threatened to destroy our forests, and our neighbors homes. Both men and women up on the mountain fighting the fire, ladies at the Kilchis grange organizing and cooking for firefighters and volunteers. I went to buy food for the kitchen with a $400 budget from family and friends. Within forty five minutes word got around I was on a shopping trip and my phone blew up. People were chipping $10, $20, $50. My budget went up to $2500 in minutes. This is the heart of hard working Tillamook People giving every little bit they can spare to help make a difference. The money and messages didn’t stop there. After I got back to Kilchis Grange people still wanted to help, giving me more money. “Whatever they need Jesse here’s ten bucks.” I didn’t know what they needed, but I got connected quickly and started asking questions and networking. I told the community “bake your best dessert, and on Sunday we will auction it off live on Facebook.” Local businesses donated over $3000 worth of merchandise for this auction.

Forty eight deserts were auctioned. This auction was six hours long, why so long? Because the People kept buying the desserts and donating them back. The People were lined up at the door adding Fishing tour guides and local merchandise from their business to the auction. In these six hours our community raised over $23,000. This is where I took these funds and founded a 501-C3 called Pacific NW Fire Relief. This non-profit belongs to the People. In the past eighteen months this money has helped fire relief to communities across the state of Oregon, including our neighbors in Otis. Fast forward to August of 2021, four people of our community decided to take action by bringing awareness about the crippling infrastructure of Highway 6 and all its numerous safety hazards, maintenance issues and lack of police presence. The efforts of these four people were able to get the attention of both local and state government, as well as ODOT. In just eight months the people of Tillamook County

re you crazy about books? I certainly am and I have been for my entire life! That is why I am so excited for the Summer Reading Program (SRP) to begin. As the summer draws closer and plans are being made for our SRP, and for our presence at the county fair, you might wonder why in the past few years we have given out so many free kid’s books during these events. Before we started giving away books as prizes, we followed the nationwide trend to give out plastic toys as rewards for reading through the summer. But we realized that while little toys are temporary pleasures, books last so much longer and are SO VERY IMPORTANT to young, growing minds. I wish you could see the sheer joy we observe on the faces of children as we hand them their very own books that they can keep

forever and ever. But now I have a question for you. What are you doing in your adult life to make your younger self proud and excited? This question makes me start reminiscing about my elementary school years. Every week, the teacher would hand out a new Weekly Reader newspaper for kids. Does anyone else remember the Weekly Reader? It was a little tabloid filled with current news, written at the appropriate reading level for each grade. I felt so proud to read a newspaper, just like my parents did every day. To make things even more fun, once a month, the Weekly Reader came with a flyer for the “Book Fair” that allowed us to order inexpensive books. My mother permitted me to buy two books per month, so I would read the mini-summary listed about each book and make big red circles around my choices. It was always such a hard decision, but let me tell you, it was a happy day when the books would arrive!

to keep their kids in Tillamook, too. John brings 27 years of experience in the hospitality industry, including working on cruise lines and in restaurants. He’s helped build a successful team at the Pelican Tap Room, an accomplishment of which he is proud. His board position started as a request to volunteer with the Chamber, he said. You may recognize him as one of our award presenters from the Chamber’s Annual Community Awards Banquet; he graciously volunteered to get up on stage and speak in front of a crowd — and that didn’t scare him off! “I had approached Justin because as a general manager for Pelican, they want us to be community involved. So I asked Justin if there were any more community volunteer positions at the Chamber,” John said. “There just happened to be a board position open, and I decided to apply.”

am pleased to introduce this week John Jackson, the Chamber Board’s second new member. John joined the Chamber Board this month this to get more involved with the Tillamook community. He’s lived here in Tillamook for just about a year, serving as the general manager of the Pelican Tap Room. “My wife and I met in Oregon 13 years ago at Crater Lake, and we’d always talked about moving to the Oregon Coast,” he said. Those dreams came true when John was offered and accepted the job at Pelican. He said he originally planned to move to another Pelican location. However, he fell in love with Tillamook and asked his boss if he could stay here, instead. “I’ve been wildly impressed with not just the warm and gracious welcome from businesses here, but also how they communicate and come together to help each other,” John said. “My wife and I both grew up in small farm towns, so Tillamook felt like home really quickly.” The local teachers also caught his attention, and he said he and his wife wanted

I would take them home and devour every page. Of course, we always had a nice stack of library books at home, but these fair books were special because they were MINE and I never had to give them back! With a little pride and a bit of embarrassment, I admit I still have a couple of those cherished childhood books in my home today. Here is the exciting news... we offer, free of charge to our adult patrons, a similar publication to the book fair flyer. It is called BookPage and you can pick a new one up each month at any of our library locations. Inside the magazine are lots of stories and reviews about upcoming books that you can check out from our library. I want to encourage you to pick up a recent BookPage, take it home, and circle any titles that interest you. Then take your markedup copy to the library, ask the librarian for your favorite titles, and take them home to read. If it is a popular title, or the book is not quite published yet, we would be happy to put you on the “hold list” for those items. It might not rival the thrill of an elementary student receiving their Book Fair books, but it is worth a try. Every time I mark up my copy of BookPage, I like to think my eight-year-old self would be happy to know that over fifty years later, I am still crazy about books. representatives.

ello and welcome! I’m Scott Fisher, and my friend and fellow ukulele player Sugar Brosius has graciously passed the baton for the Rockaway Fencepost to me. I thought I’d take this column to introduce myself, and to start a conversation about what makes our town so special. A little background: I’ve been coming to Rockaway Beach for about 20 years, initially when my two younger children attended music camp in Twin Rocks. We loved visiting all the shops on the downtown stretch of 101, with a special fondness for Flamingo Jim’s; where else can you find a taxidermy porcupine fish with a golden thread suitable for hanging on the Christmas tree?

Some years later, an old and dear friend bought a little beach getaway here, and encouraged us to enjoy it as often as we liked. My wife and I fell in love with the west-facing covered front porch: what a perfect spot to sit with a cup of coffee in the morning, or a glass of wine at sunset. In 2017, after the kids had grown up and moved away, we knew it was time to trade the empty 2700-squarefoot home in Tualatin for something smaller and more manageable. After months of searching, that same friend asked us if we’d like to buy his Rockaway Beach house. Would we ever! So we began the process of purchasing a home — something I’d last done in 2000. And that’s how we

wonderful men and women. There is so much uncertainty in the world we live in, so much division and hate. Talking with many people throughout the county, they have lost faith in the government, the electoral system. I come to you and respectfully ask that you do not take a stand against the people, but stand for and with them. In the coming days, you have an enormous opportunity as the People’s elected officials to restore trust with the people of Tillamook County. Your actions will show people we can be divided, or UNITED and come together to accomplish great things for the common good. The two mentioned projects just confirm the many decades of the people in Tillamook County are committed and capable of working with elected officials for an outcome that greatly benefits the community as a whole. I plead with you to not take the small town charm and heart and pride from the most kindest, honest, hardworking, and the most giving people

I testified in favor of this bill, and I’m excited to announce it passed the house and senate unanimously and now is into law. Highway 6 is currently being studied to make one of our most traveled Highways safer and stronger. These are two projects that I am very passionate about, and the success of both of these projects involved just a handful of the many fine people of Tillamook County.

came to own what we call the Tiny Beach Cottage, our 540-square-foot home built in 1930. I have to give a shoutout to the Rockaway Beach Library for their help in handling the paperwork and other bureaucratic requirements of homebuying. Their wi-fi and photocopier services were a lifesaver in communicating with banks, title companies, and all the known throughout the state of Oregon. As elected Board of Directors each of you have the power and ability to lift up our county and restore HOPE to the People. That government and those we elect will listen, be fair, and will act upon the WILL of the people when they speak and bring valid solutions. I ask each of you for compassion for my neighbors and for my town. The town I take so much pride in. Proud Mook, Jesse Borough

Please support the Library Dear Tillamook County Residents, I strongly urge you to support the Tillimook County Library System by voting for Measure 29- 64, the operating levy tax that funds our county library system. If this Measure doesn’t pass in May 2022, we will loose our libraries and all the resources they offer. As it is, Tillamook County can not afford to do this. We are a rural, poor county and this is one our most important resources that is available to all. It doesn’t matter if you are rich, poor, young, old, handicapped, tech savvy or not etc, the library offers free service to all. The mobile book vans reach the entire county, especially helpful for those with out resources to drive and get around. I can’t tell you how many times I have driven by the library when it’s closed, and cars with seniors, families and kids are in the parking

There’s something about enjoying a fresh pastry and a cappuccino while sitting on the sidewalk that feels so very European. And of course, walking there and back again makes it healthy, right? Mostly, though, it’s the old saying: location, location, location. Maybe it’s the ukulele, but when I stand at the Wayside, I think of the Hawaiian words mauka (towards the mountains) and makai (towards the sea). From a single spot I can see the Coast Range and the breaking surf, just by turning my head. If the Lions Club hot dog trailer is there for an event, we’ll support them and grab a bite. If they’re not, the Tropics Island Grill can at least help us imagine we’re on the beach at

Waikiki… perhaps bundled up a bit more. My favorite memory, though, comes from the 2021 Christmas-tree lighting ceremony. I was there with Sugar Brosius and Steve Tackett, plus a few other members of the Salty Strings, singing Christmas carols while waiting for the big moment. At one point between songs, I heard a child run up to her mother, breathless with excitement. “Mom! Mom! Santa is coming on a real train!” Those are some of my favorite memories; there are so many more. But how about you? What are the things you love best about living here? Let me know! I hope to hear from you and share all the things that make this such a special place.

lot using the wifi. We don’t have to drive to Portland to get resources not available in our county, the library will get them for us or as in my case help me figure out how to do it myself. Its been great to use the library programs when the grand kids visit what a nice way to get them off their electronic screens and they enjoy it! Please support our county by voting YES for Measure 29-64.

nita we admire the beautiful building and grounds maintained by North Tillamook Library Friends. The Tillamook Library system partners with NTLF to provide the books and services funded by the tax levy. Funds for book clubs, bookmobile, preschool and summer reading programs, and more. The list goes on, beyond books to the modern age, with technology to meet current needs. As a college freshman, I interned at the Boston Public Library. The most challenging task was learning the Dewey Decimal system. I have watched in admiration as libraries have grown with the times and have gone from Dewy to Digital, providing new services and education to meet peoples’ needs. This growth deserves our support. We can do it by voting YES to the levy. The county library will need a new director to replace Geri Godber, who has served our library well. Let us be sure that the new director has the necessary tools for continued good work by voting “yes” for the ballot measure.

job, I was extremely busy. I needed a place to do homework. Therefore, I started using the library’s study rooms. Having the rooms available was extremely helpful. I would spend many hours there, most days until closing time. Besides using the rooms to do my homework, I would meet with my math tutor or friends to work on homework together. There are many people who benefit from the many resources available at the library. I have family members who continue using the study rooms, as well as those who take their children in for activities. Tillamook Library has a positive impact in our community! Please Vote “Yes” for the library levy.

Vot yes for the Library ballot measure “All politics is local.” I am reminded of that phrase, spoken by Tip O’Neill, speaker of the United States House of Representatives, whenever we have an opportunity to vote on issues that have the greatest impact on our daily lives. We will have that chance on May 17th this year. We will be asked to continue, the operating levy which has funded the Tillamook County library system since 1983. Most of us have grown up with the expectation that library services are always available, as much as the daily mail or public schools. We do not pay much attention unless such amenities are threatened or removed. On May 17, we can keep our expectations safe by keeping the funding secure. When we vote for ballot measure 29-164, we will recognize the many valuable services the Tillamook library system provides. In Manza-

rest. Besides, as a full-time writer since the early 1980s, it’s safe to say I have a soft spot for libraries. Since then, we’ve found so many things to love about living here. The porch is still our favorite spot to end the day; we aren’t close enough to the ocean to see it, but the sound of the surf carries over the trees between us and the waves. And the silence! Yes, sometimes a big truck will use its jake-brake on 101, or a motorcycle will get enthusiastic about the 45 mph sign at the Dollar General, but the nights here are generally still and serene. Walkability was critical for where we wanted to live, and we have that. It’s less than a quarter of a mile from our front porch to the Beach Bakeshop.

OBITUARIES Stacia Sue Gabriel 1939 - March 30, 2022

tacia Sue Gabriel, of Neskowin, Oregon, died at age 83 from natural causes on March 30, 2022 in Salem, Oregon. A third generation Oregonian, Sue grew up in Portland. As a child, she vacationed at Neskowin beach every summer with her parents. Sue loved Neskowin so much that at age 5 she told her family someday she would live there. She graduated from Jefferson High School and earned a Bachelor’s degree in Medical Records Librarianship from Mills College in Oakland, CA in 1960. Sue’s career started at St. John’s Hospital in Longview WA, and subsequently took her to both Seattle General and Ballard Hospital in Seattle. During her career, she taught medical terminology to transcription students at the University of Washington, and managed medical offices, such as Cytolab in Seattle and (Samaritan) North Lincoln Hospital in Lincoln City. In addition to her professional career, Sue earned a Master of Arts in Values from the San Francisco Theological Seminary in the 1980s, became a certified master gardener through Washington State extension program, and opened her Seattle home as a bed and breakfast welcoming new friends from all over the world. In 1994, she relocated to Neskowin, fulfilling her childhood dream, and built her forever home along the Butte Creek. Sue was active in the Neskowin community. She volunteered as a beach walker for CoastWatch and COASST, served on the Tillamook County Cultural Coalition board, was a tutor with SMART reading program in Nestucca Valley Elementary, was Board

President of Neskowin Chamber Music and coordinated their school outreach programs. She was certified as a Master Watershed Steward and was a member of the Neskowin Land Use Committee helping to produce the 1999 Neskowin Community Plan. Sue was fiercely protective of the land surrounding Butte Creek. Her greatest legacy was her work to preserve it, and allowing it to heal from logging and other human impacts. In 2011, she bought 36 acres along Butte Creek near her home and donated it to the North Coast Land Conservancy. Her gift inspired neighbors to donate 10 more acres along Butte Creek. Sue also ensured the NCLC had enough financial support to provide perpetual stewardship of the land she donated. Sue spent many hours walking her land and the adjacent forest, getting to know it intimately. She hailed it as Qtopia, a conglomeration of her nickname (Suzy-Q) and the utopian life it afforded her. She loved every inch of Qtopia and its living creatures, from the salmon and lamprey in the creek, to the visiting elk and banana slugs, to the glorious blooms of skunk cabbage, camas and trillium. Deep within Qtopia stands a massive Sitka spruce tree Sue named HeShe Bigtree, because the tree carries both male and female cones. HeShe became a spiritual center for Sue, and a source of much comfort in the last years of her life. Throughout her life, Sue enjoyed being with her beloved dogs, traveling, tending her wild and beautiful gardens, reading, playing her cello, attending the occasional baseball game, and engaging in honest discussions with friends. She was a thoughtful and intentional person who was always learning, and expanding her understanding of the world. It was important to her to leave it a better place. Sue is survived by her many friends, as well as her chosen and extended family members. Donations can be made in her honor to the North Coast Land Conservancy (https://nclctrust.org/), Mills College (https://www.mills.edu/), and Oregon State University College of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences (https://ceoas.oregonstate. edu/). Services are to be announced.

company, hiring construction engineers throughout the U.S. for top construction companies. Since he enjoyed people, the restaurant/bar industry held a certain fascination where he found camaraderie. During his 17 years in Chicago his daughter Shayla was born to him and Jessica Burns. No doubt, Shayla was the “apple of his eye.” He often attended her school events and became an involved parent in her education and activities. Since math was both their favorite subject they became involved together with homework and “numbers.” A family visit brought Chris back to Oregon in 2019 and he decided to call Tillamook home. He quickly made friends and found true love with his special lady, Dawn Ritter. Being back in Oregon, his love for camping, fishing and crabbing could now be fulfilled. He continued his recruitment and most recently did some P.T. bartending at the local Moose Club. Being a “people person” he was always “up to the challenge” and was willing to help out where needed, often learning “the tricks of the trade.” He enjoyed being organized and helping others with the same…with the ultimate goal of “getting rid of excess baggage.” Chris is survived by his parents Sid and Patty Moody of Netarts, OR, daughter Shayla and her mother Jessica, sister Molly Lewellen (Kurt) Fruitland, ID, brother Ryan (Sue) Corvallis, OR, fiancé Dawn Ritter, Uncle Rob Mills (Susan) Seal Rock, OR, niece Sydney McHenry, nephews James Lewellen and Gavin Moody. A memorial service will be held at St. Alban’s Episcopal Church at a later date. In lieu of flowers, an education fund for his daughter Shayla will be set up at OSU Federal Credit Union.

hris was born December 19, 1969 in Lincoln City, Oregon to Sid and Patty Moody. He passed away March 22, 2022 with his loving family at his bedside. His childhood years were spent in Corvallis where he always maintained his education. He embraced education as a true gift and excelled in several subjects. As fifth generation Oregonian, he spent time discovering and discussing his great, great grandfather’s role as Oregon’s governor (1883-1887). Living in Corvallis afforded many opportunities for sports activities at the high school level and at OSU. His keen interest in sports was prevalent through his baseball career at Corvallis High where…he played a “mean” second baseman. He followed Beaver baseball, the Chicago Cubs and the San Francisco Giants, often with his Dad and brother Ryan. He spent many hours at the baseball and football fields either playing the sport or watching. After graduation from Corvallis High he attended Oregon State University and spent summers in Petersburg AK, working in the canneries and on fishing boats. He also spent family vacations at Wallowa Lake for over 40 years. During his career, Chris formed his own recruitment

Letters Continued From Page 6 capped, you can perform the exercises while comfortably seated. There are no extreme contortions involved with the body movements. There are no weights or external devices used. Just you and your body. Gentle Yoga exercises relax the muscles and joints throughout your body while you practice deep breathing and finish with you going into the most wonderful relaxation state that is possible for any/ all to experience. A major hurdle to overcome is to quiet the ever rambling mind by focusing on deep breathing; it does take time and practice. The teacher will frequently remind you to focus on deep breathing throughout the session to fill the body with nourishing oxygen and as you release your breath, it will help you to gently relax. When you are lying on the mat and feeling mentally and physically relaxed, the mind stops racing and the body almost seems to melt into the mat. You may even fall asleep (I usually do). It may take a few sessions to reach the fully relaxed mental and physical state, but the mental and physical benefits are definitely worth the effort. Make it the best gift that you can give to yourself.; Joseph Gluzinski’ a very contented 87 year old Gentle Yoga fan. Joseph Gluzinski Tillamook

Our library means a lot to people With the library levy coming before us as voters in May, I have been thinking about why libraries have been of life-long importance to me. My growing up years were on a farm in north-central Montana. As a family we put in long hours of work. Reading was considered okay during leisure time, which was not often, and for years the only reading material in our home was the monthly “Successful Farming” magazine. It wasn’t until I was 8 that I made an exciting discovery. Our town (pop 1100 in the 1950’s) had a small library! It was tucked into a corner of a balcony in our community’s civic center building. This little library and its helpful librarian, Mrs. Quinn, truly opened up the world to me and my friends. Recently a childhood friend, Sondra, said, “The library meant a lot. We didn’t have access to bookstores and even if there had been a nearby place where books were sold, we didn’t have the money to buy any. The library and reading books from there gave us experiences we otherwise would have missed.” Living in Tillamook County, we are privileged to have access to books, other materials, servic-

es and special programs at the Tillamook Library and our 5 branches in Pacific City, Bay City, Garibaldi, Rockaway Beach and Manzanita - all which are staffed by capable and helpful librarians. Let’s make certain our libraries stay open for our children, for our young people and for all of us at whatever age we are in life. Cheryl Hantke Garibaldi

Yes for Tillamook Bay Community College! The healthcare staffing crisis is explained in my industry as a supply issue: In other words, there are simply not enough qualified staff available for all of the hospitals and clinics that need them. As everyone knows, finding qualified employees in Tillamook County is a big problem and Adventist Health Tillamook is no exception. Tillamook Bay Community College is the single largest resource for highly trained workers, including Registered Nurses, EMTs, Phlebotomists and Medical Assistants. These important and sought-after roles are ideal for people who want to serve their family and friends in the area they grew up in and love. Supporting this bond measure is critical to have high quality care in our community. Our local healthcare providers including Adventist Health but also Tillamook County Community Health Centers, The Rinehart Clinic, local fire departments and fire districts all need highly trained staffing. The Oregon Legislature has allocated 8 million dollars to TBCC with a requirement that TBCC matches these funds. If that happens, TBCC will build a health care education building on land they already own, creating a facility that will provide students with the best education opportunities that will supply local healthcare with staffing to provide the best care to our coworkers, neighbors, family and friends. A Yes for TBCC vote is a vote for the future of healthcare in our community. Personally, I am not a fan of big government or unreasonable government spending. I have found TBCC to be an excellent steward of funds. Their leadership has made excellent decisions over the course of the last two decades to ensure that we have excellent college education opportunities. It is my opinion that our future depends on a strong community college. Please join me in voting Yes for TBCC! Eric Swanson, President Adventist Health Tillamook

TILLAMOOK COUNTY WELLNESS

Moving Well on your path to better health Brett Buesnel AmeriCorps VISTA serving with Tillamook County Community Health Center

This is the second post in a series exploring Tillamook County Wellness’ ‘This Way to Well-being’ map.

oday we explore the role movement plays in our health and wellbeing. Have you ever noticed that you are in a better mood after taking a short walk around the block? According to the Mayo Clinic, it’s not your imagination: “regular exercise can increase self-confidence, improve your mood, help you relax, and lower symptoms of mild depression and anxiety.” Making time to move can even help you get better sleep. In addition to helping cope with stress, the physical benefits of movement (like reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes) keep our bodies healthier and improve mobility throughout our lives. Finding ways to fit in short neighborhood walks, playing fetch with your dog, garden-

ing, or riding a bike can add up to significant positive changes in your health. Making a plan, adding it to your calendar and inviting friends to join will help keep you on track to your fitness goals. If you haven’t been active in a while, make sure to start off slow and increase duration and intensity as your fitness improves. Tillamook County residents interested in experiencing the benefits of exercise have access to a wide spectrum of opportunities. The ‘This Way to Well-Being’ offers several ways we can integrate movement along the path to wellness; from the great outdoors, to the climatecontrolled indoors, and activities you can do on your own or with a group. • Visit a Park: You don’t have to travel far to find a park in Tillamook County, and you might find the one closest to home is a great place to take a lunchtime walk. • Explore the Tillamook Coast Recreation Map: Between ocean beaches at Bob Straub State Park, the

Hoquarton Trail in Tillamook and forest trails on Mt. Hebo, it might be hard to choose. This interactive map can help you find a new favorite, check it out here: https://tillamookcoast.com/recreationmap/ • Try a new Fitness Class: Exercising with a group can keep us motivated and connect with other members of our community. You can find classes at the Tillamook County Family YMCA, North Coast Recreation District, or Kiawanda Community Center . Keep an eye out for the Tillamook Bay Community College Course Catalog in your mailbox which lists upcoming fitness classes in the county. • Join a Walking Group: Walking season has arrived! There are groups in North, South and Central County that meet to walk rain or shine starting in April. You can find information about a group near you here: https:// tillamookcountywellness.org/ move-well/walking-groups/ • Walk along the beach: Known as The People’s Coast, after the 1967 law

that guaranteed free and unrestricted public beach access, the Oregon Coast is among the most accessible in the USA. Trails along the coast and bays in Tillamook County are wonderful spots to birdwatch, storm watch, or view tide pools (Barview Jetty and Nedonna Beach). With a tide table, clam shovel, and shellfish license

Oregon’s unemployment rate dropped to 3.8% in March, down from 4.0% in February, continuing its rapid decline of recent months. The March unemployment rate is well below the 6.1% it reached a year ago and is the lowest since prior to the pandemic-induced recession two years ago, in March 2020, when it was 3.5%. The U.S. unemployment rate was 3.6% in March and 3.8% in

February. In March, Oregon’s seasonally adjusted nonfarm payroll employment rose by 5,600 jobs, following a revised gain of 9,700 jobs in February. In March, gains were largest in construction (+1,500 jobs), financial activities (+1,400), leisure and hospitality (+900), other services (+900), manufacturing (+800), and government (+700). The only major industry to cut a substantial number of jobs was professional and business services (-900 jobs). Construction reached another record high of 117,500 jobs in March. Since March 2021, construction added 6,100 jobs, or 5.5%. Over the year, construction of buildings added 1,900 jobs, or 10.8%, which was the fastest growth rate of all construction component industries. Building equipment contractors also grew rapidly, adding 3,100 jobs, or 9.9%, during the past 12 months. Financial activities employment was boosted by the hot real estate sector. Real estate and rental and leasing added 1,400 jobs in March to reach 50,300jobs. Meanwhile, the more steady finance and insurance sector was flat at 56,700 jobs, near where it has remained for the past dozen years. Leisure and hospitality cooled, at least temporarily, its rapid comeback of the past two years. Despite only adding 900 jobs in March, it is up 38,400 jobs since March 2021, which accounts for more than half of the private sector’s job gains in that time. Professional and business services cut 900 jobs, but at 256,500 jobs, the sector was still near an all-time high. In March, administrative and waste services cut 1,800 jobs, after adding nearly as many in the prior two months.

Making waves

Local artist inspired by the Great Wave

HILARY DORSEY Editor

ocal artist Chris Wilhelm painted a mural of a wave on Debra Friedmann’s garage door in 2016, symbolizing Friedman’s recovery from a stroke. Wilhelm recently refinished it. Wilhelm said he has gone to touch it up but this was the first time he has repainted the entire mural. Friedmann and her husband live in Washington D.C. and have a home in Lincoln City. “I grew up in West Linn, Oregon,” Friedmann said. “I went to University of Washington.” In D.C., Friedmann works as a master tour guide. Their home in Lincoln City is a sort of getaway. “I had a stroke five years ago,” Friedmann said. “After the stroke, I came to [Lincoln City] to recuperate.” Friedmann said her husband was helpful in her recovery. Friedmann thought it would be a wonderful idea to paint a recovery image on their garage. “We found Chris, who was just amazing how he could imagine what I imagined to the fullest,” Friedmann said.

“He really did this impressive wave.” It took Wilhelm two days to paint the mural, not including prep work. “I wish everyone would paint a mural on their garage,” Friedmann said. Wilhelm has also painted another piece this year, a painting of a wave near Friedmann’s front door, which complements the house. The couple bought the house many years ago and love to come back to the beach. “I love that image,” Friedmann said of the mural. “Because of that, I can carry that image with me other places.” Friedmann believes a wave is like recovery, as the ocean is always recovering. Wilhelm won first place in Lincoln City’s mural contest in 2014 for Lincoln City bus shelters. The contestants had a chance to win first, second or third place cash awards based on the votes of the public viewings of the murals. Wilhelm won first pace for an ethereal depiction of a universe. His mural was placed at the bus shelter near D’Sands Motel. Wilhelm has also done some residential murals throughout the city. For art commissions, contact Chris Wilhelm at 503-302-3875.

City discusses agreement for D River Park, planned welcome center

Celebrate Arbor Month with Lincoln City Parks & Recreation

HILARY DORSEY Editor

incoln City Council discussed Monday, April 11, an intergovernmental agreement for the improvement and operation of D River Park between the state, Oregon Parks and Recreation Department, and the city of Lincoln City. The city is prepared to make a substantial investment to improve the D River Park facility, as well as expand outdoor recreation activities at the location. With the agreement, OPRD allows the city, for an initial term of 50 years, the exclusive right to develop, improve and utilize the D River Park in the same manner the city would with a city park. The 2021 Legislature approved funding for construction of a welcome center, upgrading restrooms and improving beach access at D River Wayside, the staff report states. This funding will be provided as a grant to the city in the amount of $2.5 million, to be financed by the issuance of State of Oregon Lottery Revenue Bonds, which are expected to be issued in spring 2023. Mayor Susan Wahlke said the $2.5 million from the state will not cover the entire cost of improvements. City Attorney Richard Appicello said the city has available funds to assist from

Transient Room Taxes. Authorized expenditures of these funds include construction and funding of tourismrelated facilities, such as a visitor information center. The city currently has around $2.1 million in these funds. Another concern was that the agreement would rule out the possibility of the use of the parking lot for activities or events. “There is other parking available pretty close by,” Wahlke said. “I’d just hate not to allow that for 50 years.” Appicello said for the city to allow a special event in a city-controlled park, the council has stated they would only a special event if they set a fee for the use of that area. The parks department was not interested in taking that parking lot and making it available for special use.

Councilor Riley Hoagland asked if there is a proposed building set up for the visitor’s center. Appicello said there is a concept plan that Explore Lincoln City has created. “That’s all dependent on keeping the building out of the floodplain and other issues,” Appicello said. “It actually has not progressed that far yet.” Appicello said this is not a suitable place for events in the parking lot. The primary use for this area is for parking for people visiting the beach. If inside the visitor’s center, the city wanted to have community meetings or rentable space, they can discuss that, Appicello added. The council agreed to continue the discussion at its next meeting Monday, April 25. Send comments to: newsguardeditor@countrymedia.net

Why are you running for Lincoln County Commissioner, position 3?

I am running for Lincoln County Commissioner because I love this county. I have lived here since 1981… This Is Our Home. I see this as an opportunity to implement positive change and move forward with a vision that benefits all of us. As an

efforts and am still critically needed in my role. There are many things I have put in motion over the last three years that I would like to complete, such as helping to rebuild after the Echo Mountain Complex Fire, hiring a housing consultant for the county, building a new Lincoln County Animal Shelter, working on creating better water sources for rural residents, and continuing to expand services and relationships beyond the central part of the county. There is also a tremendous amount of opportunity in terms of new federal funding opportunities, and I am excited to work both internally and externally to help our community go after as many as these resources as we can. These are resources that can help with planning, combating climate change, housing, and serving our underserved communities. The opportunity to help community is inspiring and exciting and I would be honored to serve another four years to help our community through our remaining recovery efforts and into a state of increased thriving.

What experience/skills do you have that makes you the best candidate?

I am the most qualified candidate as I have the most applicable direct skills, a strong work ethic and have on the job experience in being a county commissioner during the past three years, which have arguably been the most challenging three years our community has ever seen. elected official, there is a high duty to represent and listen to all constituents within our county. I vow to always work with an attitude of Servanthood and Principles. This position requires ethical, impartial, open, fiscally responsible, and well-informed decisions built on common sense and truth. I look forward to serving the needs of all of our diverse communities within the county.

Prior to becoming a Lincoln County Commissioner, I spent 15 years working for OSU Extension as a fisheries extension specialist. In this job I did assessments of community needs, wrote and managed grants, designed and built educational and integrated research programs, resolved conflicts between user groups, facilitated hundreds of meetings, and worked on coast wide policy issues. When I campaigned in 2018, no one asked me what I would do if a worldwide pandemic broke out or what my experience in wildfire recovery was, but when standing in unprecedented times, you reach into your toolbox and pull out what you have. I have personally written grants that have brought in millions of dollars for wildfire recovery in Lincoln County, I created programs for survivors, such as septic and well water assistance programs. I have also worked in building more connection from the county to all of Lincoln County by spending consistent time in North Lincoln County and building relationships with local leaders, non-profits, and other organizations. Lincoln County will continue to be in a process of recovery from both covid and wildfire over the next several years and I feel I am the most qualified in helping Lincoln County recover and thrive.

What is the county’s biggest challenge and how will you overcome it?

I am an adamant believer that there is no one single greatest challenge.

countywide Subway restaurants will bring many business and relationship building skills to the commissioner seat. After selling the Subways, I was hired by the largest food distributor in the country to problem solve and guide 42 restaurants in our county- primarily helping them achieve higher profit margin. As a current self-employed land developer, I have learned the value of team work. Defining the objective, gathering all necessary information, and working with others to achieve an optimal goal is how any team produces a positive result. Currently I am the captain of the Lincoln County Search and Rescue team. This

The challenges we have are thorny and woven together. For example, we have a housing problem, but we also have a workforce problem as workers cannot find affordable housing. It would be easy to deduct that housing is our greatest problem, but housing is also interwoven into our tourism sector. Second homes and vacation homes play a large role in the tourism economy. Additionally, the cost of homes is often driven up by our largest earned income sector which is people moving here and bringing their money with them. Our housing problem is also an economy problem, and a workforce problem. Our workforce problem is also a childcare problem. Again, I believe there is no singular biggest challenge, there are many challenges that are intertwined. The solutions to these thorny problems need to be creative and out of the box. For example, the state conducted a feasibility study looking at co-location of workforce housing and childcare facilities. I dug through that study and provided a lot of comments and put the county in a position to possibly be a pilot site for state investment of co-location if the legislature passes the funding in a future session. This kind of programming addresses that interconnection between issues, housing, workforce, the economy, and childcare. As a commissioner I am constantly looking for opportunities for our county that will help bring relief and solutions to these kinds of complicated issues. was achieved through years of dedication, determination, and leadership. Teamwork brings positive results. When elected, I pledge, with unwavering dedication, to bring these same attributes to the office of Commissioner.

What is the county’s biggest challenge and how will you overcome it?

The biggest challenge facing our county is lack of trust and transparency. Through my experience and leadership, I will return a culture of trust, honesty, work ethics, and integrity to each and every department and staff within the county. I will lead by example, as exclusivity has no place in Public Service.

City to consider banning fireworks, leave it to the voters HILARY DORSEY Editor

incoln City Council voted Monday, April 13, for staff to bring forward an ordinance that would ban the sale and use of fireworks under emergency declaration this July and bring a ballot referral for the November election for voters to decide on a ban of the use of fireworks beginning in 2023. City Attorney Richard Appicello said the council had agreed a couple of weeks ago to pursue banning the sale of fireworks. State law already prohibits fireworks that explode or go up into the air, Appicello added. It is a criminal offence to possess these types of fireworks. “Our fireworks problems are probably more those illegal under the state law, the things that shoot up in the air, fireworks bought in Washington and brought here,” Appicello said. The banning of all fireworks would include even the small items. “If we believe with the information we have on drought conditions, what our fire departments are telling us, if we believe that our city is in danger of fire, then we need to be thinking about ‘are we going to have an emergency ban this year?’” Councilor Elaine Starmer said. The issue of banning fireworks has been split in Lincoln City almost right down the middle, Starmer added. “This is not an easy decision,” Starmer said. Councilor Rick Mark said he would be in favor of banning the consumer use of fireworks but to ban the sale this year. “I think as city council, we can take the lead on banning the sale right now,” Mark said. “We always have that emergency operations ordinance,” Appicello said. “When the situation calls for it, we can declare an emergency and ban sales of all kinds of things and prohibit use of fireworks as well.” Council President Judy Casper said retailers selling fireworks may be able to cancel items if fireworks get banned in the city. She proposed the city ban the sale and use of fireworks this July.

“I think it’s time and appropriate that we at least try,” Casper said. Lincoln City Police Department said all law enforcement is having a problem with enforcing firework use.

May Primary Election Coverage Lincoln County Commissioner Position 3 Occupation:

pressing ones and leaving the others for next time. I know what that hopeless, worried feeling is and just how real it is for so many. I know what it is to feel like you are failing the ones counting on you for their own survival. I don’t have to imagine this life. I’ve lived it and I won’t soon forget the lessons I’ve learned. I also know what it is to rise up out of that situation through hard work and determination. Why are you running for Lincoln County Commissioner, position 3?

Well, I started off like everyone else; as someone’s son. My mother was Joan Dennis. She was a proud American and daughter of the revolution. She was also volunteer of the year at the hospital back in 2008. Mom spent almost all of her free time volunteering and doing things for others. She used to go around and put flowers on all the graves, of veterans, in our local cemeteries. She put on spaghetti dinners and fundraisers to raise money for

local children in need. She was often helping out at the library. Mom was a member of several local clubs and charity groups such as the Rebecca’s and the Emblem club. In general mom was really glad to be alive and in a position to help others. She often had my sister, myself or a grandchild help her with these projects. She taught us to be selfless in our service to others by example. Mom passed in 2009. My step father John Dennis took a job at Safeway after retiring and he worked there for 20+ years. He was well liked and many people knew him as the friendly, old guy bagging groceries, who always had a smile to share. He was also always helping mom with her volunteering. He passed last year. Today, I am a loving and loyal husband and father. My wife Keli and I are best friends; raising two, wonderful, children, together. Marley is 13 and Mason is 10. Since covid hit, we have been homeschooling. Which has been great, actually. My 5th grade math skills have never been sharper; just for example. Really though, these are my favorite people. So, getting to spend more time with them has been a blessing. When mom was sick, I had to take a leave of absence from my job at the time. I went out on FLMA which ran out days before she died. I lost my mother and my job in the same week. It was brutal. There was a time when I was trading in bottles and cans to buy diapers for our baby. I know the stress so many people here feel every day. The stress of having to make $10 spend like it’s $100. The stress of having to triage bills; paying the most

County Commissioner, position 3?

and other water projects must come to fruition.

My wife and I opened Pipe Dreams Dispensary, approximately, 8 years ago. Since then, successfully operating the business has been my professional focus. Prior to this, I spent many years working in the food and beverage industry. In fact, my wife and I met while working at the local Mcmenamins back in 2002. I’ve also taken jobs over the years to learn new skills. Along those lines, I worked in a wood shop for a while. I worked as a first mate on a sailing vessel. And I worked for a sailmaker/boat repair shop.

Education:

Randy Mallette, 48

My schooling is limited to some community college. I was a student at HVCC, and I also had the privilege of being a student at our local OCCC, back in the mid 1990’s. Back then, we didn’t really have a college. We had a room upstairs in the lighthouse plaza…where Curves later was. I also had to travel to Newport to take some classes because options for furthering ones education were so severely limited around here in those days. I’m sure some people will remember.

Family:

Beach and Trails Park Ranger

Education:

I attended OSU from 1995-1996 and studied Business Management Information Systems. I graduated from U of O in 1999, with a BA in Journalism, Public Relations with coursework focused on outdoor ed and geological sciences. I have a TESL certificate from teaching English overseas and I am studying aquatic pest control licensure for my ODA applicator license.

Family:

Ryan Parker, 45

I have two daughters and my wife teaches at OCCC. We met in Seoul, Republic of Korea. I’m hoping to respect the privacy of my kids throughout this campaign as we all remember middle school is a big life transition:-)

Why are you running for Lincoln

I want representation on the Board of Commissioners for working families, especially the ones like myself who perform manual labor for the public good, that feel we are being priced out of living here. There are a lot of opportunities to improve quality of life here and assure future success for county residents, but we need better water storage, since current reservoir impoundment can’t always meet demand during our summer season. Infrastructure is boring but critically important. I was a water/sewer plant operator at my current job so that helps me understand the needs. The county should be knocking on the doors of our Congressional and state legislative delegations, reminding them that our needs are just as important as urban residents, and that the Big Creek Dam

I am running for Lincoln county commissioner, seat3 because I care about the community and want all of us here to prosper.

I am challenging the incumbent instead of running for the open seat 1 position because I believe the current leadership has failed and should be replaced. By every available metric, things have gotten worse. I believe we can do better for everybody. I believe the biggest problem facing our county is, and has been, poor leadership. We have issues to address. We have issues with affordable housing, a lack of opportunities and good paying jobs, short term rentals, policing and schooling…we have issues with taxation and permitting that were exemplified by the disastrous Echo Mountain fires. And we have a critical highway in desperate need of repair. This is not a complete list of the issues we face as a community. But, no matter the issue, poor leadership only makes these things worse. What experience/skills do you have that makes you the best candidate? My life experiences are wide ranging and have prepared me to excel in the position of commissioner. My

What experience/skills do you have that makes you the best candidate?

I already serve the community in a role of managing public lands for recreation, stewardship and my volunteerism on the Newport City Council, but scale matters. Policy shifts at the county level affect and empower all residents, and that can be a conduit for large projects needed in Lincoln County. We need to be talking to the policymakers in Salem, and be vigilant to get our voice heard in the Legislature. Collaboration for a new Yaquina Bay Bridge, a potential biosolids incinerator and planning for a new regional landfill must be earnest and prioritized conversations. We must

campaign is as different as I am. I may be the only candidate who can say he’s actually turned down donations. I understand how hard life is around here right now and how much people are struggling. I don’t want your money, just your vote. I am happy. I like my life as it is right now. I am only running because I love the community and I want to help. No one can be expected to be an expert in all things. As commissioner I will seek the council of experts, in their fields, whenever possible. When searching for the best solutions, I will consider all options and do what I feel is best for people.

What is the county’s biggest challenge and how will you overcome it?

I will seek to improve county programs by working closely with program directors and participants to assess them and help make necessary changes. I will work to provide better training and funding for our law enforcement. We want police respecting and protecting the good people and we want the criminals arrested and properly prosecuted. I will sit with our DA and work to address issues and help her better effectuate her job duties. I will work to help make our schools an example for others to follow. If elected, I will work hard and do my very best for every resident of Lincoln county and I will always be honest. Due to the limitations, there are many topics left unaddressed here. If anyone would like to ask me questions about myself or my positions on specific issues, I can be reached easily through a chat feature on the campaign website. My campaign website is: https://randymalletteforlincolncounty.com/ return to direct services that everyone notices. Pothole and road repairs and improvements, clearing rights of way of damaging invasive plants and creating memorable, scenic experiences for both visitors and residents alike.

What is the county’s biggest challenge and how will you overcome it?

The county faces many challenges but workforce availability, housing supply, homelessness, drug addiction and water supply are the biggest. I envision Lincoln County becoming a hub for high-quality timber products for niche markets to provide good profit for producers but shifting towards more innovative and sustainable forestry. We must find ways to make our county more wildfire resilient, prepared and be proactive to reduce the chances of catastrophic fires like the Echo Mountain Complex in 2020.

County pauses lease OBITUARIES negotiations for proposed Jeri-Lynn Knudson property for animal shelter DEC. 11, 1951 – JAN. 2, 2022

and culture provided a colorful tapestry that was a perfect background for her creative photography. Jeri started her career working for the City of West Linn in January 1988. She worked in the Court before moving to the Department of Human Resources. As H.R. Director, she represented management with grace and intellect. Jeri worked with the employees with sincerity and passion. Her insights and knowledge were respected and trusted by everyone who had the benefit of working with her. After her retirement from the City of West Linn, Jeri and Al moved to Lincoln City. She was truly at home on the beach and quickly integrated into the community. Her passion for photography was realized, as she opened JAKs Photography Studio. Her creativity and love of people contributed to her reputation as an extremely talented professional photographer. Perhaps her proudest project was creating photographs, enlarged floor to ceiling, for the hospital in Lincoln City. These photographs will be a lasting legacy. Jeri’s leadership qualities were recognized by organizations with which she was involved. She served on the Board of Directors of the Rotary Club of West Linn. She served as President of

HILARY DORSEY Editor

incoln County has paused pursuance of a lease agreement of the Lincoln County Animal Shelter with the City of Newport for 90 days. The county will take this time to look at potential alternative locations for the permanent shelter. Jerry Herbage, assistance county counsel, stated during a Lincoln County Board of Commissioners meeting Wednesday, April 13, that the county had submitted on Dec. 22, 2021, a land use application for the animal shelter, including storage buildings, at the Newport Municipal Airport. The parcel is owned by the City of Newport. “There was an interest in the county entering a lease with the city to make this possible,” Herbage said. When the county filed, this was for development on property zones public structures. This application is an outright use, but because it is in the airport’s restricted area, it becomes a conditional use. “The development would be in two phases,” Herbage said. “Phase one would be construction of the shelter – the application is up to a 12,000 square foot building – kennel space for 24 dogs and 59 cats, would include a public reception area, sales and basic pet care needs, staffing area, three private offices, animal receiving area, grooming facilities, clinic space, and outdoor exercise areas.” Phase two would be construction of storage facilities and the possibility of a spay and neuter clinic. Herbage said the county gave testimony in support of the application in a January hearing of the planning commission. A couple people testi-

fied against the application. Some concern of the proposed new location site was that the animals would be traumatized by the proximity of sights and sounds from airplanes, as well as living in a building that could be subject to shaking. “A motion was made to approve the application subject to conditions,” Herbage said. “The motion passed.” A final order was approved. This was subject to 10 conditions. “An appeal was filed,” Herbage said. The Newport City Council convened in March and voted to have an on-the-record hearing. The city again recommended approval of the project. A hearing was held April 4. By a vote of 5-2, the council denied the appeal and approved the application. Final written order is scheduled before the council on April 18. The next step would be to discuss lease negotiations. “I think the most important thing is having public support behind this project,” Sheriff Curtis Landers said. “It is my opinion that we need to – however you want to look at it – pause, hold, not continue in the formal process of the animal shelter at its intended location.” Landers said there may be other opportunities that exist. Shelter manager Sara

Wynveen said staff is concerned with the recent public interest in the welfare of the animals regarding the airport location. Wynveen added that the team takes incredible care of the animals. “The temporary facility definitely added some challenges that the team has risen to,” Wynveen said. “We have not had to adjust the care of the animals, just the level of service we are able to offer our community.” The shelter provides what is required by law and will not compromise the care of the animals, so there may be a waitlist. “COVID has definitely opened our minds to the possibilities for providing service without people having to come to the shelter,” Wynveen said. “We have learned that there are ways to get animals to people and people to animals without necessarily coming to one site.” Chair Claire Hall said she was in favor of pausing lease negotiations with the city while the county explores other sites, although there are not many properties on the market that fit the needs of the shelter. The commissioners approved a motion to pause pursuing a lease agreement with the City of Newport for 90 days. Send comments to: newsguardeditor@countrymedia.net.

Terry was a skilled, creative artist who always had “projects” going on involving a multitude of mediums, often inspiring others to be creative as well. She raised her kids, and plenty of others too. Terry’s home was the neighborhood “hang-out”.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Primary choices As a former resident of Congressional District 5, I feel an obligation to both vote and share what the candidates running for office stand for...and against. Kurt Schrader voted against increasing the minimum wage, Medicaid expansion, allowing Medicare to negotiate for lower Rx prices. Schrader voted against issuing stimulus checks during COVID. Kurt Schrader takes campaign contributions from Big Pharma ($600K) and the petroleum industry

($300K) and consistently votes in favor of issues favoring those industries. For more information on his environmental voting record access the League of Conservation Voters website. Schrader’s opponent in the May primary is Jamie McLeod-Skinner. She has never taken corporate PAC money. Her background is in environmental law. She advocates for climate justice, racial justice, universal healthcare and working

families. Jamie was instrumental in securing funds for fire recovery in Talent, OR. She has worked in refugee resettlement and humanitarian aid in former war zones. Jamie comes from a working class background and understands the challenges in making ends meet. We are fortunate to have choices in our elections process. I encourage you to choose wisely and be sure to exercise your right to vote...yes, even in primaries. -J. Erlanger, Lincoln City

Vote for Stan Pulliam for governor I was born on the Oregon coast and have been a resident of Oregon my entire life. As a child, I attended Delake Elementary and Oceanlake Grade School. In 1966, my family moved to the valley. In 1997, I joyfully returned to Lincoln City and have lived and worked here for the past twenty-five years. This is the first time that I have spoken publicly regarding politics, but

I feel duty bound to do so at this point in time. Please vote for Stan Pulliam for Governor of Oregon. We need to bring back support for strong community values, respect for our police and our Constitutional rights. I believe that Stan will lead us in the right direction, He has proven to be an exemplary Mayor for Sandy, Oregon and shown

himself to care about the citizens of Sandy and all Oregonians. Stan listens and responds to his constituents. He cares about our safety and a higher quality of education for our children. He cares about our freedom of choice and being accountable for our actions. As a man of action he stands strong for his convictions. When elected Governor, he plans

to reach out to Oregonians to seek our valuable input. A vote for Stan is a vote for a down to earth, approachable person who I believe will accomplish positive changes for Oregon. Stan will make us proud again to be an Oregonian. Please join me in voting for Stan Pulliam for Governor. Thank you. -Marilyn Nolan, Lincoln City

GUEST COLUMN

Want to farm? Get a cash register BY DAVE MARSTON In 1991, when Lee Bradley started farming near Paonia in the North Fork Valley of Colorado, he was hired to manage a fruit farm owned by the coal company, Cyprus Coal Corp. Mine bosses gave him a ridiculously hard goal: Make money. Bradley decided to focus on marketing. “We shined the apples and sold them wherever we could,” he says. With the pressure on him and his wife Kathy, they also opened a farm stand inside their leased barn close to a highway. “At first, we were only going to sell what we produced. But people had money, so we scrambled, grabbing local products from everywhere to have more for people to buy.” A few years later, in 1996, Homestead Meats, a local, natural beef (no additives) cooperative, began, with only five families involved. Plant Manager Gary Peebles recalls that everyone agreed to “keep it small and try the idea.” Now six families strong, he says, “No one thought we’d have 40 employees or a packing plant.” Not quite all grass-fed, the beef is finished with grain, “ensuring consistency and marbling,” says Peebles. Consumers got on board, as many people have become

increasingly concerned about how the beef they buy is produced. Now, Peebles reports, Homestead Meats just bought Callaway Packing, which doubles their production to 80 local animals processed weekly and sold throughout Western Colorado. Best of all, they are no longer subject to the commodity market, where 85% of beef is processed by four corporations. Stories like this apparently make Delta County a model, attracting young farmers and ranchers. Thirty percent of Delta County’s farmers were considered “new and beginning” farmers in the 2017 USDA farm survey, and most are pursuing natural but not strict “USDA organic” practices. When the documentary, The Real Dirt on Farmer John, played at the Telluride Film Festival in 2005, few Coloradans had heard of Community Sponsored Agriculture, which asks dedicated consumers to pay farmers up front for weekly boxes of food. Fast forward 17 years, and hundreds of CSAs, as they’re called serve cities and rural areas in Colorado, reports Farmshares.info, including several CSAs in the North Fork Valley. The widespread availability of natural produce and meat wasn’t always a given.

For decades, most products grown in the North Fork Valley were shipped to cities. Today, it’s resort towns like Aspen and Crested Butte that see North Fork Valley food and wine at their farmer’s markets or in their CSAs. Bradley recalls a meeting 20 years ago of the newly formed Valley Organic Growers Association (VOGA), where he doled out some advice that gave the up-and-coming juice maven, Jeff Schwarz, a hot idea. “Clean up your farm, get a cash register and you can sell stuff to the public right there,” Bradley recalls telling Schwarz, whose Big B’s Juices now processes 7.5 million pounds of apples annually for juice and cider, much of which he sells directly to the public at his outdoor restaurant. Schwartz scoops up every available apple locally and imports the rest from Washington. Today, what Schwarz and Bradley have in common is that their thriving businesses sell a wide variety of food, wine, and diverse crafts. Exploring either place can turn into a daylong event. “I think it’s all about knowing your farmer,” says Bradley. “People wander around the farm. They see how you operate and pick stuff themselves, which gains trust.” He is not certified organic, saying that the cost is too much and ties his

DAVE MARSTON

hands when pests invade. And the best part? Young people who want to farm see local opportunity. “A business called The Painted Vineyard is getting started close to me,” says Bradley. It will have a tasting room, a B&B and a camping area, and Bradley figures its customers will also be his. Meanwhile, near retirement at 70 but still farming, thanks to his son, Ryan, Bradley continues to help newcomers to the valley. One example

is Storm Cellars Winery, a Sommelier-trained couple from Denver, run by Jayme Henderson and Steve Seese. They came to the valley knowing wine but not much about planting vines, repairing equipment, or making wine from scratch. “We kept going back to Bradley,” says Henderson, “and he kept helping us out.” Dave Marston is the publisher of Writers on the Range, writersontherange.org, a nonprofit dedicated to lively discussion about the West.

Pierce confident heading into final weeks of primary DAVID RUPKALVIS The News Guard

Six years after he won the Republican primary and lost a close race to Gov. Kate Brown, Dr. Bud Pierce feels like the timing is right to take the next big step. During a campaign stop in Coos Bay last week, Pierce said despite the crowded field in the Republican primary he is confident heading into the final weeks of campaigning. “It comes down to continuing to work the process,” he said. “We have pretty darn good

support in the medical community. It really comes down to telling people who you are, what you stand for and what you believe, and leave it to them. I want people to know the authentic Bud.” Pierce said his past experience gives him an edge in the crowded field. “That’s an advantage,” he said. “When we look at polling, I have name recognition over 0% and everyone else is under 10%.” While many of the issues facing Oregon are similar to 2016, Pierce said there is a difference in the political climate.

An oncologist in Salem, Pierce said six years ago none of his patients ever discussed his campaign. This year, he said more than half want to talk politics. “It’s very different compared to 2016,” he said. “There was some interest in the Republican primary. As soon as the election happened, the interest went away. The Republicans didn’t really think they could win.” Pierce said voters around the state have similar concerns - public safety, homelessness, cancel culture, election integrity and a natural-resources based economy.

Pierce said more and more people are interested in having Oregon produce its own rather than rely on others. “I think people are realizing with the pandemic and supply chain crisis, we need to do it here,” Pierce said. “Food production, mineral production have got to be done somewhere so it might as well be done here.” As far as public safety, Pierce said the current state leaders have it all wrong. But it can be fixed. “It’s going to take effective policing, and it’s going to take people who break the law being

arrested and being punished in a real way,” Pierce said. With so much riding on the election, Pierce said he stands out because he is not interested in accolades or attention. “I’m someone who wants to get things done,” Pierce said. “I want to achieve public safety. Most of the recognition will go to county commissioners and city councils, and I’m OK with that. The governor is uniquely aligned to get the federal, state, county and local officials together to get it done.” Pierce said he has a plan to combat homelessness that could actually work. “There has to be a shelter bed for every person in the state,” he said. “The shelter is a place where people can work on mental health, alcohol and drug addiction and start to work.” He said if people refuse the help or don’t use it, other stronger steps could be taken. “I don’t really want to incarcerate people, but you have to have a strong stick,” he said. Pierce said the state also needs to make changes in its public education system. “That’s going to require a lot more effort on behalf of parents, teachers and students,” he said. “I actually started my

education at age 5 and ended at 36. You have to have a sequential curriculum so it builds on the previous year. You have to have testing, not to teach to the test, but to be able to gauge how you’re doing.” Pierce said with the problems facing the state, he chose to get involved to find an answer. “The only reason I’m involved in politics is because you can’t be governor without being involved in politics,” he said. “You put in people who have vast experience, have vast skills and want to solve problems, make people’s lives better. We have plenty of laws now that it’s not OK to hurt people. We have lots of laws to help the homeless.” As the final weeks of the primary come up, Pierce said he will continue to visit communities in the state and will begin an advertising campaign. Then he will trust the voters to make the right choice. “My sole value in running and if elected is to make livers better for the people of Oregon,” Pierce said. “My Christian faith tells me to lead as a servant and do everything that’s legal, ethical and moral to make people’s lives better. That’s what it’s really about.”

LC Youth Cheerleading tryouts begin April 25 Cheerleading is a team-based sport that involves stunting, pyramids, tumbling, jumps and dance. It was initially started in the USA, and now it’s one of the fastest growing sports. Why? Because it’s fun! To perform a cheerleading routine, you need to be able to throw someone in the air then immediately do your gymnastics tumble pass. You need to have a variety of skills to compete a routine – and this variety means the sport is always exciting. Competitive cheerleading is a very athletic sport, that does not involve pom-poms (like sideline cheer). It involves competing a high-energy, twoand-a-half-minute routine at competitions across the state and, this year for LC Youth Cheerleading, the country. Teams compete against other cheer teams and a panel of judges score the routines to decide the rankings. “Every athlete gains so much from doing cheerleading,” cheer coach Tonia Anderson said. “Not only athletic skills, like learning to jump, stunt and flip, but also lifelong friends!”

Being part of a team means you work together for the same goal, gaining trust in your teammates and building your own confidence both on and off the cheer mat, Anderson added. Cheerleading also fosters teamworking skills, good sportsmanship and commitment in athletes. LC Youth Cheerleading is quickly approaching their tryout season and they hope that your child will consider being a part of that team. Tryouts are open to those students going into grades 3 – 12 for the 2022-2023 school year and attending school in the north area of the county (Oceanlake Elementary, Taft Elementary, Taft High any Charter School or home school student). Try outs are April 25, 26 and 28 from 5:307 p.m. and April 29 from 5:30-8 p.m. Tryouts are located at Oceanlake Christian Church in Lincoln City. A JotForm must be filled out before tryouts https://form.jotform. com/201405168203039 . If you have any questions, you can text Coach Anderson at 541-921-9962.

School district golf tournament takes place at Salishan Golf Course Taft Championship Golf hosted a friendly, 9-hole golf match attended by boys and girls programs from around Lincoln County schools. There were four county schools represented Wednesday, April 13, including boys and girls from Waldport High School, boys from Toledo High School, boys and girls from Taft, and boys from Newport High School. In all, 25 local area student/athletes competed on a marvelous afternoon in Gleneden Beach at Salishan Golf Course. The sun warmed the golfers as they navigated the back-nine at Salishan with vistas of the Siletz Bay and the waves of the Pacific Ocean as a backdrop. Host school Taft had golfers in eight of the nine groups, sharing their local knowledge of their home course at Salishan. The director of golf, Tom Graves, provided the young players with a top notch experience. By far, the most organized and formally presented tournament of the young golf season. For many of the JV competitors, it was their first competition of the season. All the school coaches, and the staff of professional at Salishan, pitched in to teach the players how to compete in formal tournament etiquette. Rules and procedure were the goals of the competition. “I truly believe this event provided experience that will help each participant throughout their season,” said Taft High School boys golf coach Andy Morgan. Madison Olson and Teagan Prince represented the Waldport Ladies Golf Team. They enjoyed a very nice—but challenging—day around the backnine at Salishan. Olson carded a 63, while Prince turned in a 70. This was the first tournament of the season for these ladies and they have now set the bar for days to follow.

The Waldport Irish Boys were represented by Joshua Angelo, Valour Jones, and top Irish scorer—Noah Fruechte— who carded a 59. Like the lady Irish—these young golfers represented their school well and have some opportunities to show growth from the experience. They have bright futures. Newport High School fielded a team of four young men. Representing the Cubs were Hunter Stocker (58), Evan McAfee carding a 59, Luke Green (58), and Ayden Pockrus with a team best—49. This team represented the school and the county well, enjoying some camaraderie and sunshine during an afternoon of nine holes with very even competition. Traveling from Toledo High School, the boys program was represented by Ethan Childs (51), Daniel Roeser (66), Cody Reids (67), Coren Loper turning in a very respectable 48, and Jacob Long carding a Boomer team best of 44. Toledo Boomers have competed with the home team Taft Tigers in multiple matches this year. These boys teams (Taft and Toledo), along with Waldport, belong to the same 3A Special District 2—while Newport boys competes at the 4A level not often on the course with other Lincoln County schools. On the girls side—all Lincoln County schools compete in the same 1A, 2A, 3A, 4A SD2 Special District 2. So, the Waldport ladies will likely play again with the Tiger ladies team. The Tiger ladies participating in the match at Salishan Golf Course were Aleah Bailey (59), Emma Henton (70), and team, and tournament best Lily Hatton carding a 51. “It was great holding a tournament in which the boys and girls shared the course—this was the first time we have done this that I know of,” Morgan said.

The host—

Taft Boys Championship Golf team was thrilled to have other area schools join them. First year player Joshua Haeckel carded a 66. Also, rookie junior player Jet Mueller competed for the first time—turning in a score of 64. Second year Tiger sophomore Zaden Parsons recorded a 64. Senior Luke Johnson carded 59—continuing to improve in his inaugural season. Sophomore player Christian Unruh tied his older brother—senior, Ethan Fairfield with a score of 51. Senior Eston Whisler carded a “tough-it-out” 53, while senior anchor, Zac Will turned in a tournament best 42. “It was a really terrific day for golf at Salishan where the weather can really play a factor in scores,” Morgan said. “The environment was extremely kind—as was the host Salishan. This was a really great day for nearly two dozen county youth. We should be extremely proud of the young men and women who represent our local county schools.”

Big band dance with the Lincoln Pops The Lincoln Pops is a quintessential big band playing swing, standards and big band fare. With 19 musicians and four vocalists, the Pops’ big sound includes trumpets, trombones, saxophones, piano, drums, guitar and vibraphone, along with a variety of vocalists. John Bringetto has been the band leader since 2009, and their drummer has played in the band for over 35 years. The age group of the band ranges from early

20’s to late 70’s, so the band is striving to keep this genre of music alive in Lincoln County. On April 30, the Lincoln Pops will be performing some of the latest jazz arrangements by East Coast arranger Gordon Goodwin. There will also be some Latin music, standards from the Glenn Miller era, Frank Sinatra and more. The dance floor is open, but a partner is not required. You’re free to just sit back and
