Dedication Ceremony

Agroup of Tillamook residents gathered on June 7, to officially dedicate the pedestrian plaza in downtown Tillamook the Doug Henson Plaza, in honor of the longtime community fixture who passed in 2024.

“We’re here today to honor Doug Henson,” said Nick Torres who is Tillamook County’s Veterans Service Officer and a Tillamook City Councilor. “Doug did so much for the community and individuals of this community, this plaza is just one of many projects Doug brought to the city.”

The pedestrian plaza between Pacific and Main Avenues on Second Street in Tillamook was initially converted from a functional street into its current form in 2017, as part of a larger, $28-million rethinking of downtown Tillamook’s traffic flow with the installation of a new bridge over the Hoquarton Slough.

Previously unnamed, Tillamook’s city council voted in May of last year to name the plaza the Doug Henson Plaza in honor of their former colleague who had passed the previous month. Henson was born on May 18, 1948, in Salem, before moving as a young child to Tillamook County and attending the Neah-Kah-Nie School District. After serving in the Army from 1967 to 1969, including combat duty in Vietnam where he received multiple medals. Henson returned to Tillamook determined to make a positive impact in his community.

Following a stint at the Tillamook County YMCA, Henson opened a sporting goods store in Tillamook and took up coaching and refereeing for youth sports in his free time.

In 2003, Henson was elected to the city council, serving until 2006 when he resigned to run for mayor and campaign in support of a veteran’s services levy, before returning for a second term beginning in 2011. During his time on the council, Henson spearheaded a wide range of initiatives, including serving as a founding member of the Tillamook Revitalization Association,

helping to start the annual Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony and Farmer’s Market in downtown Tillamook, pushing to get playground equipment installed at Goodspeed Park and, fittingly, creating the Second Street pedestrian plaza.

In one of the final acts of his public life, Henson led the effort to bring a veterans’ memorial to downtown Tillamook, successfully raising more than $200,000 in support of the project in 2023. Henson passed before he could see his vision brought to life, but Tillamook City Councilor Nick Torres assumed leadership following Henson’s passing and the memorial was installed on the triangular property between First Street and Pacific and Main Avenues. At the dedication ceremony, Torres,

Summer reading gets under way

Tillamook County Library Director Don Allgeier appeared before the board of county commissioners on June 4, to detail the library’s summer reading program for summer 2025, which began on June 9.

At the meeting, commissioners also accepted a $100,000 grant to help with infrastructure improvements necessary to enable the Tillamook Bay Commons development and awarded a contract for $45,900 to upgrade lights at the fairground’s tennis courts.

Tillamook County Library kicked off its summer reading program Monday with a theme of “Level Up,” and a focus on expanding residents’ awareness of the library’s offerings. Allgeier said that the program made a point of incorporating puzzles, games and prizes, as well as two craft activities, to keep kids and families engaged throughout the summer to help prevent learning loss between school years.

Allgeier said that the library was also aiming to ease access to the program by streamlining the sign-up process and including both English- and Spanish-language materials.

Residents wishing to participate can still visit any Tillamook County Library location to pick up a game board, which includes a variety of different activities designed to highlight the library’s diverse offerings. Prizes will be awarded for completing individual tasks on the gameboard and those who complete all activities will be entered in a drawing for grand prizes.

There are three gameboards available this year, with versions of the program for younger and older children using the same game board, and teenagers and adults each with their own board. Residents who wish to participate can stop by any library branch this week to sign up and collect a board. Unlike in past years, the end of summer reading will not be accompanied by a two day “prize-apalooza,” with prizes instead being handed out throughout the month of August, after the competition ends on August 2. There will also be an event hosted at the Tillamook Coliseum Theater on a to-be-determined date in August to celebrate the program, with all participants invited. Additionally, the library is partnering with Meals for Seniors and Grub Club to offer free lunches for kids, available at the Tillamook Main Branch Library from Monday

Tsunami 101 roadshow stops in Tillamook County

Oregon’s Department of Emergency Management hosted the first of a series of Tsunami 101 presentations at the Pine Grove Community House in Manzanita on June 4, drawing a full house.

At the presentation, which was repeated later in the day in Tillamook, experts from Oregon’s Department of Geology and Mineral Industries (DOGAMI), the National Weather Service (NWS) and the Oregon Department of Emergency Management discussed the tsunami situation in Oregon and how residents can be prepared and will be alerted if one occurs.

Laura Gabel, a geologist with DOGAMI based in Newport, kicked off the presentations by discussing the science behind tsunamis.

Gabel said that tsunamis are generated in areas called subduction zones where tectonic plates are pushing against each other and that the entire Pacific Basin is ringed by these zones, each of which can generate tsunamis.

Oregon’s local subduction zone is known as the Cascadia Subduction Zone. It extends from northern California to Vancouver Island and runs roughly parallel to the Oregon’s entire coastline between 60 and 70 miles offshore.

The zone exists where the Juan de Fuca plate is slowly slipping underneath the North American Plate, pulling the North American Plate downwards at a rate of

around one and a half inches a year. The pressure created by this subduction builds up in a stuck or locked zone and will eventually be released when the North American Plate springs back up, causing an earthquake and tsunami.

Gabel explained that while Oregon could be affected by tsunamis generated elsewhere around the Pacific, these distant tsunamis would take hours to arrive and would be much less impactful and easier to prepare for than a local tsunami generated by the Cascadia Subduction Zone.

paleo seismologists in the 1990s, it was discovered that the zone is still active.

Those same paleo seismologists were eventually able to create a record of tsunamis caused by the subduction zone dating back 10,000 years.

the waves had been recorded with no related earthquake.

Given the 325 years that have elapsed since the last rupture, Gabel said that the latest projections estimate that there is a 16-22% chance of a full-margin rupture in the next 50 years and a 37-43% chance of a partialmargin rupture in southern Oregon or northern California.

The good news is that the Cascadia Zone is by far the least active in the ring of fire, Gabel said, leading scientists to discover it relatively recently, with its existence first theorized in the 1980s. Initially, researchers believed the zone might be dormant but thanks to research by

At the same meeting, commissioners voted to accept a $100,000 grant from Business Oregon that will be used to help develop infrastructure at the Third Street site that is slated for the development of a 36-unit workforce housing development. The development, to be known as Tillamook Bay Commons, is being undertaken by the newly

In that period, the zone has experienced 19 full-margin ruptures resulting in magnitude 9.0 or greater quakes, and 22 partial ruptures causing less powerful quakes. Research showed quakes have been separated by 100 to 1,100 years and that in the last 3,000 years, the average time between them has been 510-540 years.

The last full margin earthquake and tsunami occurred on January 26, 1700, with the tsunami hitting Oregon beaches around 9 p.m., according to Gabel, who said that the information had been determined by looking at tsunami records in Japan, where

Commissioners also voted to approve a $45,900 contract with EC electric to upgrade lighting at the Tillamook County Fairgrounds’ tennis courts. The project will commence after the Tillamook County Fair in August, see 32 lights installed and is scheduled for completion by the end of September. Originally, the project was set to be supported by a tourism grant, but commissioners decided that since the fairgrounds is owned by the county, it would be more appropriate for them to directly pay for the project, though it will still be supported by transient lodging tax dollars.

Grabel then discussed the experience of going through an earthquake and tsunami, explaining that the ground would shake for up to five minutes in a full-margin rupture, causing damage to infrastructure, ground liquefication during the shaking and landslides.

Local Dance School Honors Founder with Record-Breaking Tribute Show

Cami AUFDERMAUER

The Tillamook School of Dance (TSOD) hit the stage Saturday night at the Don Whitney Auditorium with their annual hospice benefit show, continuing a heartfelt tradition that began in 2014. This year’s performance, titled A Tribute to the King!, paid homage not just to Elvis Presley but to the school’s beloved founder, Jan Colleknon, who dedicated nearly six decades to teaching local youth the art of dance—and the importance of family and community. Since its inception, the event has raised nearly $60,000 for Tillamook Hospice, with 100% of the proceeds supporting end-of-life care for local families. “It is with great honor that today, we dance for Jan, Tillamook Hospice, and everyone who has lost a loved one,” shared a spokesperson for TSOD. “Jan’s legacy lives on in

every step we take.”

Director Pink ColleknonEggert expressed excitement about this year’s production, noting it’s been the most ambitious yet. “The number of tickets that have been sold so far has been crazy—this is definitely going to be our biggest show yet,” she exclaimed. “The meticulous details that Scott Casey and I have been working on are like nothing I’ve ever done before. We’re so proud of what we’ve created together.” Pink goes on to share about the meticulous details, including all the dancers’ hair and makeup replicated Priscilla Presley! “I just love that we tied everything together.”

The evening was filled with dance, memories, and community spirit. TSOD students danced to honor Colleknon, who passed away in 2011 after a long battle with Cerebellar Ataxia. Her passion for dance—and her commitment to teaching thousands of Tillamook kids—left a legacy that continues to uplift the community.

A highlight of the night was the presentation of the Jan Colleknon Memorial Scholarship, a $1,000 award given to a deserving student who embodies the dedication and spirit that Jan brought to dance. This scholarship comes directly from the Colleknon Family, and this year’s recipient was Stella Hurliman who accepted the award from her father, Brett Hurliman, with tears in her eyes. The touching moment was a testament to the lasting impact that Jan’s legacy con-

been generated, and that residents in Manzanita would have about 20 minutes from the beginning of a quake to the arrival of a wave, with residents on the south coast having less time, due to their closer proximity to the fault.

Grabel said that the initial wave could be as high as 50 to 60 feet at the beach in a worst-case scenario and inundate areas up to 100 feet above sea level, depending on an area’s topography.

Grabel said that a quake could generate multiple waves, which would arrive at the shore at 30-to-60-minute intervals, and that impacts could last for 12-24 hours, making it important for residents to check for an all clear with authorities.

Adam Schaaf from the NWS then spoke about his organization’s alert efforts in the event of a tsunami, which are coordinated with the National Tsunami Warning Center in Palmer, Alaska.

The center, which monitors quakes around the pacific, works with the United States Geological Survey to evaluate those quakes and determine the risk of tsunamis to warn impacted areas.

Schaaf said that in the event of local quakes, the NWS would immediately put out a warning before analysis is complete but that for distant quakes, analysis would precede communication.

Analyzing data preliminarily takes around five minutes, according to Schaaf, after which the warning center and NWS decide whether to issue a tsunami watch, advi-

tinues to have on generations of dancers.

During the show, Tillamook Hospice nurse Sally took the stage alongside her team to thank the community for their unwavering support.

“We’re beyond grateful to TSOD, the Colleknon family, and everyone who made this night possible,” she said.

“Your generosity means that more families in Tillamook County can receive the compassionate care and dignity they deserve during the hardest times of their lives. Thank you for standing with us.” A heartfelt thank you was extended to the many local businesses and individuals who helped make the evening possible: Sadie Rider, Werner Beef & Brew, Lonnie Eggert, Jack Colleknon, Jaxsen & Colten Eggert, Tracy Naegeli, Mackensi Edgar, TP Freight Lines, Skyler Clear Clowers, Brett Hurliman, Leilani Martin, Stella Hurliman, Cami Aufdermauer, and the Tillamook Hospice Team.

Special recognition was also given to Scott Casey for his dedication, vision, and meticulous attention to detail that brought the production to life and created an unforgettable experience for the students and the entire community.

TSOD’s A Tribute to the King! not only delighted audiences but also reaffirmed the power of community coming together to support families in need. As the final curtain fell, it was clear that Colleknon’s spirit continues to dance on—one step, one family, one show at a time.

sory or warning. Watches are reserved for distant quakes, while advisories and warnings are used for local events, depending on the situation.

NWS’s primary means of communication are through weather radios, but in the event of a tsunami, the warning center will send alerts to every phone in impacted counties on the coast.

After the initial evaluation and warnings, the center will monitor data transmitted by a network of deep ocean assessment and reporting of tsunamis buoys, which measure wave action, and update warnings or advisories as needed.

Once the potential for further wave activity has subsided, the warning center will send an all clear, at which point warnings will be canceled, though Schaaf cautioned that did not mean that danger was over, as dangerous currents would still be present in local waters.

Following Schaaf’s presentation, Althea Rizzo, Local Geological Hazards Program Coordinator at the Oregon Department of Emergency Management discussed the importance of emergency preparation in the face of disasters.

Rizzo discussed the need for go bags containing food, water, medicine and other supplies, which she said residents should have in their homes and cars. Rizzo said that these bags should contain supplies for three days, with people stocked up for two weeks at home.

Rizzo also said that residents should look into seismically retrofitting their houses, which she said was surprisingly affordable and could help a structure survive an earthquake.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Medicaid critical for Oregon children

Did you know that health care for more than half of the children in Oregon, including 3,425 children in Tillamook County, is covered by Medicaid? In fact, 35.8% of Tillamook County residents, all ages, are on Medicaid. Federal funding currently covers about 75% of Oregon’s Medicaid program, the Oregon Health Plan. According to Oregon State Treasurer, Elizabeth Steiner Hayward, if Trump’s so called “Big Beautiful Bill,” passes the US Senate, that funding could be cut more than half, affecting the one in three Oregonians who are covered by Medicaid.

Despite this, Cliff Bentz, Republican US house member for eastern Oregon’s second district, posted May 20 on X that “this legislation is a huge step in the direction the American people voted for last November.” Ironically, Rep. Bentz’s district includes Malheur county, which at 51.10%, has the highest Medicaid enrollment in the state. Thank you to our U.S. Rep. Suzanne Bonamicci for voting against this bill, and to U.S. Sens. Jeff Berkeley and Ron Wyden for speaking out against it.

Protect Medicaid

In the United States, Medicaid is basic health insurance provided primarily to children, pregnant women, disabled and lowincome Americans. 78 million Americans are currently enrolled in Medicaid (source: Medicaid.gov website). Recent data for Tillamook County states that 36 8% of our county’s residents are enrolled in Medicaid (source: Oregon Office of Rural Health, February 19 2025). Given recent Tillamook County total population estimates this means more than 11 000 people or more than 1 in 4 residents in Tillamook County are currently covered by Medicaid health insurance.

Medicaid is a primary source that the Republican administration is looking to cut to provide even more tax “relief” for the rich. The Republican administration in a recent article authored by Robert F. Kennedy, U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services and Mehmet

Oz (New York Times, May 14 2025) refers to Medicaid throughout the article as “welfare”. Calling Medicaid “welfare” at the time the Republican administration is gearing up to make huge cuts to this critical health insurance to help pay for huge tax cuts for millionaires and billionaires is no coincidence. Thousands of people in Tillamook County and across Oregon could be impacted significantly by the cuts to Medicaid. These cuts in service to our families, friends and neighbors’ health insurance all in service to make the wealthy class even wealthier. This is a disgrace. I’m deeply concerned about how these cuts could impact the lives of people in our county and state.

Re: Support for Trump I am writing to respond to Dixie Gainer’s invitation for comment on her letter of May 27

She gave DOGE very high praise for exposing “massive corruption”. She said, “deep state” workers and elected officials in Washington “routinely stealing from our government” are the “driving force behind the hate Trump rallies.”

I agree with her concern over the urgent need to reduce our massive national debt. However, the current administration has made clear with its big, beautiful budget bill that federal debt reduction is neither its goal nor a priority. The proposed bill substantially increases national debt; the cost savings of DOGE cuts will redirect, not reduce, spending.

DOGE’s claims of massive fraud and abuse, unsupported by evidence, have been debunked by many credible sources. DOGE’s actions make clear that its true purpose is to destroy agencies that provide vital services for the public to radically change our system of government.

What Gainer sees as “HateTrump-Nazi rallies” I see as people sharing their anger, outrage and shock about current government policies and actions. People have expressed

their concerns in noisy yet peaceful protests, seeking positive change. Rally-goers voice opposition to dramatic unexpected changes made by the current administration, the lack of response by many lawmakers, and the breakdown of separation of powers.

When feeling threatened by disturbing unwanted changes, we tend to ask who is to blame. Authoritarian politicians have long stoked grievances & blame into hatred of certain groups, declared as the enemy, to garner support for a charismatic leader. Many democracies in the world are now struggling with autocratic challengers, including our own country.

For me autocracy is not the answer to our problems. Our country was founded as a democracy, rejecting rule by dictators or kings. Our democracy must now prioritize identifying and supporting the requirements of a diverse population to promote the common good. This task requires us all to work together to identify and correct the flaws in our system, forging new ways to respond constructively to social, technological, economic and climate changes that affect us all.

SD9 Election tainted by hate speech

The Tillamook School District No. 9 school board election is over. New members declared. However, the taint of an egregious display of radical invective that took place lingers.

This display was on social media, aimed at one candidate. By innuendo and association the posts and their links threw mud on the candidate, insinuating that her identity would poison the children of SD9 The poison, however, didn’t emanate from the candidate, but from the people who created the posts and those who bought into the posts with further words of denigration.

Personal integrity is implied within the SD9 mission statement. I hope that the three candidates who will assume the duties of school board members did not participate in the hate speech, and that they exhibit a profoundly higher level of personal integrity than those who did.

Transportation District’s disregard to collective

bargaining agrement troubling

My name is Tyler, and I serve as the liaison for Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU) Local 757 at Tillamook County Transportation District (TCTD).

We are currently facing a deeply troubling situation.

Since February 27 2025 management has refused to meet with any of our bargaining representatives, blatantly disregarding our Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA). Management has been consistently hostile toward members As a result, seven grievances have been filed. These actions are clear union-busting tactics that are sowing fear and division among our members and threatening the solidarity we have fought to uphold.

This moment calls for unity and strength. With a clear message in the campaign.

I am calling on you to join us in a show of solidarity at the next TCTD Board Meeting:

• Date: Wednesday, June 18th, 2025

• Time: 4:00 PM

• Location: 3600 3rd Street, Tillamook, OR

If you aren’t able to attend in person we encourage you to attend Via Zoom at 6pm link below:

https://nwconnector.org/ tillamook-transportation-boardmeetings/

Our message is simple and powerful:

We support all who labor. We demand fairness. We will not allow our rights to be violated. We deserve respect and safe working conditions.

We are a small shop—only 13 ATU members out of 23 bargaining employees—but with your support, we can send a strong message. Your presence will have a powerful visual impact, showing strength in numbers and making it clear that we stand united across all locals and sectors.

I am confident that by standing together, we can reach a resolution that not only protects every member but also fosters a stronger, more unified future for all. Let’s show that solidarity is our strength—and that we will not be divided and support for all.

Please stand with us. Together, we are stronger. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from all of you.

Full-time residents, vacation home owners and visitors alike were all here to enjoy the Memorial Day weekend in Cape Meares when the unexpected happened: A critical pressure reducer valve at the inlet to our water treatment plant failed. This meant that water from our source, Coleman Creek, could not be treated. Oceanside Water District (OWD) personnel attempted to have the part overnighted for an emergency repair, but the holiday interfered with that, and then the new valve got lost in the mail and a second one had to be ordered.

While we had a sufficient volume of water for normal use (especially with conservation efforts), a local structure fire or wildfire could have quickly emptied what remained in the tank.

Plans are coming together for a fun July 4th in Cape Meares. Small but mighty, we will have our usual one-block parade that starts at 11 a.m.; a community potluck beginning at 1 p.m.;

live music by Gary and the Meares Cats; and a silent auction from noon until 2:30 p.m. Be sure to make time to visit the auction, as there will be gift certificates from many local merchants and restaurants, original artwork, gourmet food and more. Proceeds from the auction help maintain the Barbara Bennett Community Center, the heart of our village. If you have items or services to donate to the auction, contact Claudia Cameron at claudiacameron2025@gmail.com. More details about the July 4th festivities to come in a future column.

each has been truly enthralling and inspiring. A few of my favorites are Beneath the Bending Skies and Homestead. As I am a transplant to the Oregon Coast from England, I am always amazed how people survived on their migration to the west hundreds of years ago, the determination and grit it took to make a home in a wilderness. Jane is an inspirational speaker, and this presentation will be fascinating. She will also be on hand to sign her newest book. Wheeler poet, Dana HunekeStone, will be joining Jane at this event that is sponsored by Tillamook AAUW.

Also at the main library, Wednesday nights are for movies and popcorn, beginning at 6.p.m. There are so many events for those of all ages, at the library this summer, music, crafts, informational and educational programs, check out their website or call the library for more information 503-8424792.

Out kayaking at Cape Meares last week in the early morning, I got to see two deer swimming across the lake. I had no idea they were such good swimmers, first time to ever experience this and it was truly amazing, nature in action. When you take the time to be out in nature, there is always magnificence to witness, and this brings. peace to our busy lives. Penny from From Page A6

volunteer firefighter who works for the Oregon Department of Forestry, and Blake Paulsen, interim fire chief of Garibaldi. Chief Hesse’s presenta-

tion covered the topics of preparedness, the causes of wildfires and strategies for property defense. “Last year, we burned about 1.9 million acres in Oregon,” he began. “How do we suppress wildfires? What’s the state’s response? Obviously, we have local fire departments, which you see here, but as those incidents expand, how does that work? What happens?” Chief Hesse went on to describe Oregon’s wildfire

strategy and equipment. “Oregon has one of the most proactive stances in the nation,” he said, including air tankers for dropping retardant or water. In particular, Oregon has adopted the strategy of prepositioning task forces of fire engines in response to developing threats.

“We have a task force in Tillamook County,” Chief Hesse said, adding that we have been able to send this task force to nearby wildfires, such as the Gaston fire in 2024. And of course, this allowed Oregon to send hundreds of firefighters to California during the horrific wildfires there earlier this year. “We sent strike teams to protect structures there, during the state wildland fires.”

Oregon also offers seasonal grants to acquire addi-

tional firefighters during the high-risk summer months. Across the state, more than 190 fire departments received grants which allowed them to hire roughly 400 firefighters. “The state fire marshal’s office also added 76 engines across the state,” Chief Hesse added, one of which is in Tillamook County.

Furthermore, the City of Rockaway Beach is developing a community wildfire mitigation plan with the state fire marshal’s office, with participation from City Councilor Mary McGinniss and Chief Hesse. I plan to cover that in a future Fencepost.

The chief then outlined the concept of defensible space. This involves clearing vegetation from around and between buildings.

“You don’t want all the

dry trees, leaves, and grass right right up to the back of your house.” He specifically called out stacks of firewood as a particular risk when adjacent to homes. “You want to give us a chance to suppress that fire before it takes out your house.”

The chief then introduced “the zero zone,” which ideally involves having no combustible material within five feet of the house.

The next zone, from five to 30 feet from the house, Chief Hesse described as “lean, clean, and green. You trim the dry branches, you keep the [dead] grass away.” Finally, from 30 to 100 feet from your home, “you should thin as much as possible” to remove dangerous dry vegetation.

In hilly areas, the defensible space required increases to 60 feet.

“Topography is one of the biggest factors that we watch,” Chief Hesse said. Because heat rises, fire on a hillside dries out the vegetation above it, which leads to a rapid expansion of the fire.

As for personal preparation, many of us have acquired go-bags as a result of previous Emergency Preparedness meetings, and of course the Great Oregon Shakeout drills every October.

“You at least have something to get you started,” Chief Hesse commented, “at a moment’s notice to get to a safe area.”

Beyond that, Chief Hesse reminded us that in Rockaway Beach, “we have only one way in and out.” Furthermore, while we have designated tsunami evacuation areas, nothing similar has been determined for wildfire evacuation.

Identifying these areas and making a plan for our community is one of the most significant topics for the community wildfire mitigation plan, which is currently in development.

Chief Hesse, City Councilor Mary McGinniss, and other city personnel have scheduled a meeting with the Oregon fire marshal’s office on Friday, June 13. To find out more, contact the City of Rockaway Beach by email at cityhall@corb.us or by phone at (503) 374-1752.

One important way to remain informed as far as possible in advance of fire situations is to sign up for the NIXLE messaging system. You can then receive emergency messages by text on your cell phone. To sign up, text RockawayOR to 888777.

Cheesemakers medal in state track meet

By Mike Weber

For The Headlight Herald

The Tillamook High

Cheesemakers track & field team capped a very successful season with a total of nine athletes qualifying for the OSAA/OnPoint Community Credit Union State Championship Meet presented by Nike May 29-31 at the University of Oregon’s Hayward Field in Eugene.

It turned out to be a memorable event for firstyear Coach Bob Cronnelly, who helped four girls and five boys qualify, with the Cheesemakers earning a total of six state championship medals.

“We were a pretty young team this year, but we were relatively well-rounded,” said Cronnelly, whose assistant coaches include Rikki Reid, Alex Gillison, Ryan Smith and Meg Angier. “We got some distance runners, some throwers, some sprinters and a jumper to the state meet. There were some opportunities to qualify athletes for state at the district meet, but we just fell a little short with some of them.”

The boys’ qualifiers included senior Noel Gutierrez Valencia, junior Soren Johnson, freshman Nate Matthews and sophomores Diego Velazqquez Villa and Alpacino Soto Carillo. the girls

qualifiers consisted of senior Avery Reeder and sophomores Adrian Vogel, Brooke Bush and Rylee Huerta.

“I would love to take credit for our success, but honestly, we have a great group of some pretty hardworking kids,” said Cronnelly. “I have a good coaching staff, and the kids did everything that the coaches told them to do, and things worked out well for us and we had a really good state meet. There’s not a better place in the entire country for a track meet than the University of Oregon. It’s one of the best facilities in the world honestly.”

The highlight event for Tillamook was a third_place finish by Velazquez Villa in the 3000 meters (8:56) in addition to his sixth place in the 1500 meters. Velazquez Villa eclipsed the nine-minute mark for the first time ever to get his personal best time in the event.

“Diego is always running,” said Cronnelly. “Diego ran an amazing 3000-meter race. He ran the 1500 meter on Day 2 of the meet, and he ran really close to a personal best. Like all the other state medalist’s, Diego is one of our team captains. He takes good care of the other distance runners, while encouraging them and keeping track of their splits during races.”

Huerta had an impressive performance with a fourth place (11.97 meters) girls shot put finish, which marked her personal record. Huerta’s shotput was the third best all-time in Tillamook High School track & field history and it was the best event for a Cheesemaker thrower since 1985.

“Rylee is one of the most gifted shot putters I’ve ever seen,” said Cronnelly. “She lifts hard, she throws a lot and her technique is awesome. Rylee has one of the most hard-working and tenacious personalities that I’ve ever encountered, and she always puts the needs of the team ahead of her own.”

Gutierrez Valencia was a two-time boys state medalist as he took fourth (48.76 meters) in the discus and seventh in the shot put (15.18 meters). Valencia earned an eighth-place medal at the 2024 state meet. The top eight finishers earn medals at state. Valencia will continue his career next year for the Pacific University Boxers in Forest Grove. Valencia is the only Tillamook athlete who plans to continue track & field in college.

“It was an awesome performance by our kids,” said Cronnelly. “There’s always stuff that we had hopes of doing better, but I was just really, really proud of the

Pirates compete at state track meet

Shawn LEHR

The Neah-Kah-Nie Pirates Track and Field team capped off a great season at the 3A state championships at Hayward Field in Eugene on May 29 and 30. The boys’ team placed sixth overall, scoring 33 points from 5 state qualifiers.

The distance squad led the way, with Sophomore Gus Kirby placing 4th in the 1500m and 3000m, running 4:01.55 and 8:46.67, both personal records, and both breaking the previous school records set by Mark Welsh 24 years ago.

Junior Liam Gibson knocked six seconds off his 800 time throughout the

season and capped off his year by winning the 800m and becoming the first Neah-Kah-Nie male athlete to win a state championship in 37 years, clocking a time of 1:56.94. Freshman Dylan Sigman re-broke his own Freshman record in the 800, running a 1:58.11 and placing fifth.

“Gus and Liam dedicated themselves to their craft this year- their recovery, their nutrition, their training.” Head Coach James Billstine explained. “When Dylan came out for Track, he cleaned up his diet a little, and Gus and Liam really showed him the ropes for training, all the little details that add up. They are all competitive, but they

would do absolutely anything for each other. There is no selfishness or jealousy in that group.”

Gus and Liam’s crosscountry teammate Senior Jacob McIlvenna placed 6th in the 100m dash, where he ran a personal record of 11.21 in prelims. “Jacob’s 100 came out of nowhere about halfway through the season. Cross kids aren’t supposed to be that fast, but we do sprint work year-round, and while he had always been a solid 400 runner, it was awesome to see this for him his senior year,” Billstine said.

Finishing off a great four-

kids and they just did an absolutely amazing job at the state meet.”

Reeder capped her senior season in style with an eighth place (5-00.25) finish in the high jump to earn prestigious medal. It was the second state championship medal for Reeder, who took sixth place last year. Reeder was the only Tillamook jumper to qualify for the state meet.

“Avery was a rock-solid jumper who consistently took top three spots in one, two or all three of her jumps at track meets while scoring tons of points for us,” said Cronnelly. “She’s the only athlete on the girls’ team to clear five feet. Avery works hard and does everything her coaches ask her to do. She was a great leader for us, and she helped mentor many of our younger sprinters, jumpers and hurdlers.”

The state meet marked the conclusion of their Tillamook High School career for Reeder and Velencia. For sprinters Carillo (400 meters) and Vogel (100/200 meters), they were first time state qualifiers, which made it a very special event for them and a good experience too.

personal record, and the number 4 throw all time at Neah-Kah-Nie. “Zane was a three-year state qualifier in shot put, and a two-year

qualifier in discus. Shot didn’t go great for him on day one, but he overcame that in disc on day 2 and everything clicked at the right time,” Billstine said. Sophomore Tia Mautner also qualified for state in

discus, throwing 78’6”. The girls’ 4x100m relay team team of Cleo Fraginal, Sara Vega, Acacia Christensen and Payton White qualified for state in the 4x100, running 51.68 and placing 11th. White also competed in the

100 hurdles, placing 6th in finals while running a personal best in prelims of 16.17. “Sara was pretty sick all week, she overcame a lot to stick it out and run as well as she did. Acacia is a first-year 4x100 runner and did great,

she is strong,” Billistine said. “Cleo and Payton have qualified for state in the 4x100 every year they have been in high school, there will be a big hole to fill with them graduating.”
