illamook County remains in Moderate Risk, effective Friday, March 26, through Thursday, April 8. Tillamook County Health Department encourages the public to not let down their guard, continue to wear masks and stay 6 feet apart. Oregon Health Authority reports 467 positive tests for Tillamook County to date, as of Thursday, March 25. Tillamook County Emergency
Manager Gordon McCraw reported during a community update March 26 that from Tuesday, March 9, through Thursday, March 25, the county has had 25 COVID-19 cases, with 21 positive and four presumptive. The health department is currently monitoring 17 cases. One person is hospitalized.

illamook County has 10 new COVID-19 cases this week so far, Tillamook County Health Department reported during a Tillamook County Board of Commissioners meeting Wednesday, March 24. “We’ll stay at Moderate Risk for the next two weeks,” Administrator Marlene Putman said. “It’s effective on Friday the 26th.” Putman said people should keep precautions in place, such as social distancing and wearing a mask, even outside, if closer than 6 feet to someone. Emergency Preparedness Coordinator Ed Colson said as of Tuesday, March 23, 6,610 people in Tillamook County have taken at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. 25 percent of residents have received one dose. Vaccine partners continue to hold vaccine clinics. “We’re vaccinating approximately 700 eligible residents each week,” Colson said. Beginning Monday, March 29, all eligible groups will be able to schedule their vaccine appointments online through the new online scheduling tool. The health department will release more information as it become available. “In order to prepare for the launch of this new online scheduling platform, the Tillamook County Community Health Centers online enrollment – the button for 65 plus – is currently closed,” Colson said. Colson said those who are currently eligible – Phase 1A and Phase 1B of 65 plus – should email the health department to get on the list at tcchc@co.tillamook.or.us You can also call the vaccine line at 503842-3914 for assistance in getting scheduled. Those groups eligible March 29 – including adults 45-64 with underlying health conditions, migrant seasonal farm workers, food processing workers, pregnant people 18 and older, and more – are not being scheduled yet. “We have been promised through OHA about increased allocations,” Colson said about the vaccine supply. “That has also been spotlighted through the federal government and their announcements.” The health department usually receives their allocation Wednesday or Thursday, Colson added. Colson said they should have more information for the Friday morning update with county leadership. Local pharmacies are administering doses separately. Anyone who is currently eligible for vaccines can sign up for appointments. Schedule a vaccine with

New day care opens in Tillamook April 1 I
Hilary Dorsey Staff Writer
magination Education Creation Daycare is open for enrollment Thursday, April 1, for ages 2 and up for part time or full-time care. The day care is located at 616 Park Ave. in Tillamook and will be open 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday – Friday. Owner Shelli Dial-Omedo will be at the highest level in daycare with a master’s degree in education. She received her master’s degree at George Fox University. “I am going to have the highest step but its still in the process,” Dial-Omedo said. “They arrange daycares by steps and I’ll be at the highest step.” Dial-Omedo said activities at the day care include language arts, playing instruments such as the tambourine and triangle, science, math, outdoor play with a playhouse, art and more, Dial-Omedo said. “Language arts would include ABC, story time, sight words, and that nature,” Dial-Omedo said. The kids will also have free time. The kids will have breakfast, two afternoon snacks depending on how late they stay, one morning snack and lunch. Rates vary depending on hours of care. Full time ranges are $1,120-$1,350 per month, with an hourly rate of $7.50 an hour for toddlers and $8.50 for infants. Part time ranges are $700-$1,025 per month, with an hourly rate of $9.50 an hour for toddlers and $10.50 for infants. There are two staff members and room for two infants at a time. Dial-Omedo said she already has one infant in care, who turns 2 years old in May, which will open a spot for an infant at that time. “The age goes up from 24 months,” Dial-Omedo said. “There’s nine available now for 2 and up and then one infant availability.”

Dial-Omedo said staff will be wearing masks and taking temperatures. School-aged children entering kindergarten in September will be required to wear masks beginning in June. “Both of our staff are vaccinated too,” Dial-Omedo added. Because of the risk of COVID-19, no sick kids can go to the day care right now, Dial-Omedo added. Parents will wear masks when they come in and can use their phone to scan and log the kids in if they do not wish to use the day care’s equipment. “I’ll sanitize everything,” Dial-Omedo said. Toys will be sanitized at the end of the day and other items will be washed in the dishwasher. Send comments to: headlightreporter@countrymedia.net

International Police Museum set to reopen in Wheeler I
Hilary Dorsey Staff Writer
nternational Police Museum is set to reopen in Wheeler, within the confines of Wheeler Treasures, in early April, around April 5-10. Enter the front door of Wheeler Treasures and go straight to get to the museum.
Wheeler Treasures is located at 395 Nehalem Blvd. The museum had been formally located in Rockaway Beach. Displays at the new location include police and local history, U.S. and international helmet/badge displays, evidence collection, a polygraph display, handcuffs, and more. Museum displays are constantly evolving. “We have had something interactive for children,” Executive Director Ed Wortman said. “We will have a fingerprint station for the children.” Wortman said the kids would also be able to participate in an interactive Bear Facts scavenger hunt. The scavenger hunt usually comes with a prize at the end. “This last summer, because of COVID, we worked a program with the local ice cream shop,” Wortman said. “They got a children’s ice cream cone.” The museum will discuss options of prizes for kids during a board meeting in a couple of weeks, Wortman added. They used to let the kids dig through a box for a plush toy but cannot do that now due to COVID-19. Wortman said the mu-
seum wants to plan a ribbon cutting with the mayor and refreshments for guests after the pandemic subsides, but will open at least partially in April. “We’ll be doing a soft opening where you can come in and walk around, see the displays,” Wortman said of the April opening. “Part of it will depend on whether or not I get the identification cards in the display so people know what they’re looking at.” There are a lot of long term plans to maximize the value of the space, but this will take time, Wortman added. Eventually, the museum would like to set up a communications corner, as well as two telegraph stations. “We really didn’t have widespread use of radios and police cars until after the second World War,” Wortman said. “We hope to display a little bit of what it was like with the old equipment.” The museum hopes to show people how law enforcement is done and the history of it. This includes weapons and uniform. “At one time, swords were preferred because the weapons that they had at the time
were subject to moisture and condensation and everything else and they weren’t necessarily reliable,” Wortman said. “The swords were reliable and didn’t care about the weather.” The original ‘bobbies’ – the British police –wore top hats to be distinguished from soldiers, Wortman added. Peel’s Bobbies, in reference to Sir Robert Peel, were considered the first police officers as we recognize them today. Formal police work began in 1829. “As a nonprofit, subsisting on donations and volunteers, we have to move a little slower than we might desire,” Wortman said. “We have been fortunate, we are solvent and are working closely with Wheeler Treasures to provide the best visitor experience possible in the available space.” Donations allow IPM to bring the law enforcement experience to life for visitors. Donations can be made directly to the museum or at www.internationalpolicemuseum.org Send comments to: headlightreporter@countrymedia. net

High-speed chase from Tillamook to Clatsop County ends in arrest Staff Report
Oregon State Police (OSP) responded to an attempt to locate a vehicle, a blue Chevy Trailblazer, operated by Brandon Senff of West Linn, around 10:30 p.m. Wednesday, March 24. Senff had been involved in an earlier pursuit with Tillamook County Sheriff’s Office. OSP Officer Ian Lamb located the vehicle on Hwy 101, near milepost 69, and measured the vehicle’s speed to be over 100 mph and driving recklessly.
OSP reported Lamb began to pursue the vehicle northbound on Hwy 101. Lamb attempted to stop the vehicle using lights and sirens but Senff attempted to elude and continued driving recklessly on Hwy 101 and then northbound on Hwy 53. “An ATO trooper used spike strips to disable both passenger tires,” Lamb stated in his report. “The driver eventually crashed the vehicle into a ditch on Hamlet Road in Clatsop County.” Senff was detained and showed multiple signs of impairment, according to

Naval Air Station Tillamook Played a pivotal role in defending the United States homeland during World War ll. December7,l94L theJapanese attackthe US Naval Base at Pearl Harbor. February 23, L942 a Japanese submarine shells the Ellwood Oil field off California coast, near Santa Barbara. This is the first time the US mainland was attacked by a foreign power since War of 1812. June 21, L942, a Japanese submarine shells Fort Stevens at the mouth of the Columbia Rlver on the Oregon coastline. This is the first and only attack on the mainland American Military site during World War ll. September 9,1942, a Japanese floatplane launched from the same submarine that shelled Fort Stevens, drops two incendiary bombs near Brookings, Oregon. This was the First-ever bombing on the continental United State by enemy aircraft. ln about 10 months, the Japanese attacked the United States Pacific coastline at least four times including at least two attacks against targets in Oregon. ln 1941, The Navy asks US Congress for authorization to purchase an increased number of airships. June L942 Congress authorized the construction of as many as 200 Airships. The US Navy commissioned 10 Air Stations and L7 Hangars to house and deploy airships in contiguous United States. The airships were located in: Lakehurst, NJ; Glyno, GA; Weeksville, NC; South Weymouth, MA; Richmond, FL; Houma,LA; Hitchcock, TX; Moffitt Field, Santa Clara,

CA and Tillamook, OR. Navy airships patrolled the water off the Atlantic, Pacific Oceans and the Gulf of Mexico. Airships could look down on the ocean surface and spot a rising submarine. They were used to escort ships out of ports. There was never another confirmed attack by the Japanese on US mainland after the deployment of airships. There were approximately 89,000 ships escorted to safety during World War ll. About 450 ships were sunk prior to airships. Over 500 merchant ships were saved by airships. Only 7 of the 17 Hangers survive today. Our Hangar ‘B is the only one able to allow the public inside. HANGAR ‘B’ is the largest clear span wooden structure in the world today. lt is important that we remember and the young people know past history of the part Tillamook County played in World War ll. NOTE: I got a call from Bob Phillips, he remembers the property as it was before the Navy purchase. I was wrong in my assumption that the land was a forest, NO, lt was a farm with some timber to be fell. The barn at the entrance to the Port of Tillamook Bay should have been a clue! Bob was a child at that time and told me that he remembers an apple orchard near Brickyard Road and another entrance to the Base on South Prairie Road in the area of the Gun Club now. Thank you Bob for Calling me. Call me if you have memories or information about Hangar ‘B’. We need your help. We need Board Members, Fund Raising Helpers, and donations. My Goal is to get the whole county involved. ln order to get Big Grants, we need to show our interest and local involvement.

Senff was transported to the Tillamook County Jail, where he refused a breath test but consented to a drug recognition expert evaluation and provided a urine sample. Senff was arrested and lodged at the Tillamook County Jail for reckless driving, reckless endangering a person, attempt to elude a police vehicle and driving under the influence of controlled substances.

GARDENING MATTERS
GARDENING MATTERS
I
CARLA ALBRIGHT
had a friend ask recently, “Do you always cut your sword ferns back in the spring?” My answer was a resounding “Oh, yes!” The reason I cut back my ferns each spring is strictly aesthetic. I don’t like the dull green and brown ferns as much as when they are new and a bright green. It doesn’t hurt the plant to leave the old fronds on, but it just doesn’t look as nice. Some of the sword ferns in my garden seemed to turn brown earlier than usual this year, so I felt good about getting to them in early March. Usually, I wait until mid-March to cut them back. This gives the tender fiddleheads a little extra protection if the weather turns cold. Western Sword Ferns, for the novice coastal gardener, are the large, iconic native ferns you see growing in large clusters along the hillsides along Route 6 as you head into Portland and throughout the Pacific Northwest. They are called sword ferns because their fronds resemble
a broad sword; their botanical name is Polystichum munitum. They grow from a central point in a clump, putting out fronds (leaves) that can grow to three or four feet long. The Western Sword Fern loves a deep rainforest, but is equally at home in a garden. In fact, they are happy almost everywhere in the coastal garden, sun or shade, as long as they have sufficient moisture and acidic soil. They are easy to grow and easy to maintain and don’t spread by runners or offshoots like so many ferns do. All you need to do is cut the old fronds back each spring to rejuvenate the plant into putting out bright green new fronds. These fronds rise from what look like a circle of hairy knuckles that are called fiddleheads. Sword ferns don’t need fertilized and they generally don’t need additional water once they are established. Sword ferns are not the spreading bullies that Lady Ferns can be if they are not kept in check. Sword ferns are well-behaved if placed in an area that they can grow and spread their fronds. They can overshadow smaller plants like violets or primrose, so don’t plan on planting that type of plant around their base. While sword ferns are often referred to as “evergreen,” they really aren’t in

Fiddling around
the sense that a tree or shrub is evergreen. Instead, in this case evergreen means they don’t lose their leaves and die back to nothing in the fall like Lady Ferns, Maidenhair Ferns or Japanese Painted Ferns do. They retain their fronds until they produce new ones so the old ones can brown and die back. If you are driving along Route 6 in March, this stage of the ferns becomes obvious
as they are totally brown. If you have not already cut back your sword ferns – and other “evergreen” ferns, now is the time to do so. No doubt the fiddleheads will have started to unfurl and become real fronds. This makes it a little harder to cut back the browned ferns, but with some patience, you can still freshen up those plants. If you are too late and the
fiddleheads have unfurled into a full-blown frond, the older fronds can still be cut back. But by this time, it gets to be really tedious. You have to gently push the bright green new fronds to the side to get to the older, browned fronds. And if you wait long enough, the brown fronds can be removed by a gentle tug. I always cut back my deciduous ferns (as mentioned above: Lady ferns, Maidenhair ferns, Painted ferns) in the fall as they get ugly quickly. The only drawback with that is that I then forget what is planted there and will oftentimes try planting
another perennial on top of the sleeping ferns. Which is a good reason mapping your garden can be a real help in locating what dies back in the winter. (Hostas are another example.) And therein lies another column! As you can see from these “before” and “after” photos, giving the sword ferns a hard pruning can seem a little scary. But, trust me, they will be looking lush and beautiful in a few weeks and stay that way into the summer and fall. And you will have the pleasure of watching the fiddleheads slowly unfurl into vivid green fronds.

or the little Lighthouse at the end of the trail in Tillamook County, the past year has been a quiet one. As with other Oregon State Parks and Wildlife Refuges, for much of the year the coronavirus necessitated closure of the entire park. Later in
the summer we were able to open some trails and provide portapotties. However, our Lighthouse sat out on the cliff closed to all our visitors through the usual busy tourist season from late spring to early fall. This year the rest rooms are again open in the park as are the trails, but the Cape Meares Lighthouse will be closed for tours. Our visitors to the Cape
Meares Lighthouse are a hardy group. Beginning in
the latter part of summer we had many families and tourists visiting and hiking up and down the trail if only to see that glorious view. That view from the cliffs overlooking the Pacific Ocean that our Cape Meares Lighthouse can share with them through the fog,rain or sunshine. Other external work has been completed with the closure. The lighthouse was
repainted on the exterior again. This is necessary due to the fact that we are the only lighthouse on the Oregon Coast that had to be protected by cast iron plating when it was constructed due to our high winds. As well, hopefully by mid-summer this year you will see the new roof over the gift shop portion of the structure. This will also include a sub-roof for more
protection which did not exist prior and new gutters to properly drain the rain from the winter storms on our blustery coastline. In addition, the Oregon Parks & Recreation Department constructed a host site at Cape Meares State Scenic Viewpoint. The sIte is located

Welcome Kristin Holleran to the chamber board Justin Aufdermauer Executive Director
I
f you are a regular reader of this column you might notice a theme lately: we have a lot of new faces (and new energy) here at the Chamber. I am excited to introduce you to our other new board member, Kristin Holleran. Originally from Spokane, Wash. Kristin is the Director of Plant Operations at the Tillamook County Creamery Association, where she has worked for the last five and a half years. She oversees all the manufacturing, cheese making, packaging, ice cream and whey products. She joined the Tillamook Chamber Board of Directors as a way to get out in the community, meet new people, and start giving back. “The Chamber is involved
Kristin Holleran in almost every major event in the community,” she added about why she applied to the board of directors. “I am looking forward to being to help with the Tillamook County fair booth, the Cork & Brew Tour, and to help bring up and foster the Young Professionals.” Kristin has been a part of the TCCA scholarship committee for the last several
years and said she has seen first-hand how talented and driven the youth in our community can be, and she looks forward to opportunities to mentor young professionals as they build their careers. Kristin added that she is passionate about chambers because they have an opportunity to be a real influence in the communities they serve. “They are a source for networking, a wealth of educational information, and an advocate for local businesses,” she said. “That has really shown through this last year with COVID in the multiple ways that our chamber advocated for our small business community.” It’s clear Kristin understands and values the work that the chamber does, and we are excited to involve her in our many events, projects, and programs going forward.

With final decisions made, I would pay for my new acquisitions, hop on my Stingray bike, and head for home where I would spend the next several hours reading all the new adventures of my comic book favorites. Were these comics award-winning literature? No, not at all. But they were so darn engaging that it ended up being the perfect recipe to help me develop a lifelong love of reading. That brings me to the sections of our library where we shelve “graphic novels”. What is a graphic novel? Websters defines them as “a fictional story that is presented in comic-strip format and published as a book.” Basically, they are comic books all grown up! Why then are graphic novels sometimes looked down upon by some parents… and even a few teachers? It is upsetting to librarians when kids come looking for something good to read and they tell us, “I am not allowed to check out graphic novels.” Quite often, adults view these books as nothing but the “funny papers” without

much substance, but I would like to clear up a few of these misconceptions. First of all, most graphic novels are FULL of text. They have a unique combination of drawings and words that the reader must analyze, interpret, and comprehend. Graphic novels also have lots of plot and character development to help the reader gain perspective and aid in their reading comprehension. Possibly the most important aspect of graphic novels is they are so engaging, especially for reluctant readers. Many kids, just like Little Billy, are visual learners and these books are just the ticket to capture the imagination…and hopefully hook them into the love of reading. Should graphic novels replace traditional text-only books? No way! But they make a great addition to spice up anyone’s reading routine. Which reminds me…there are graphic novels for ALL reading levels, from kids to teens to adults. You just have to look in the age-appropriate section of the library. One last note about comic books…had I the insight to save all those early comic books in archival bags, I would now be sitting on my private yacht anchored at a luxurious Caribbean resort, as vintage comics have become expensive collectibles. However, I think reading them, rather than saving them, was a better investment in myself! funds through the Tillamook Lodging Tax Grants to build a smaller overflow parking lot near the restrooms on the south side of the main entryway road.

athy Burke is one of our neighborhood captains for emergency preparedness. She recently noticed that house numbers are not posted on all of the houses in her area. She and our local firefighters remind us that visible house numbers can be of vital assistance in locating homes that have an emergency in progress, especially at night and/or in bad weather. While our Cape Meares firefighters know our quirky streets, ambulance crews dispatched from Tillamook likely won’t. House numbers are not required by Tillamook Fire, but they are strongly suggested. Buy re-
flective house number signs, either from a local hardware store or via donation at tillamookfire.com. Seconds and minutes can make the difference between life and death in a medical emergency; do your part by having house numbers prominently displayed on your home. There’s exciting news for our preppers. On March 11, 10 years after the big Japanese earthquake and tsunami, “ShakeAlert” went live in Oregon.

ebo Women’s Book Club met for March on Zoom. Besides me, attendees included Melanie Merryman, Rachel Pettit, Theodora Rudolph, Madlen Silkwood, Nancy Whitehead and Joan Wilke. Madlen hosted the meeting, Joan led our discussion of the book“Island of Sea Women” by Lisa See. It’s among titles we’re considering for the Book Club Kit we’ll donate in memory of longtime book clubber and friend, Pat Sears, who recently passed away. We all enjoyed this book. Next month we’ll read “The Lying Life of Adults” by Elena Ferrante. Besides prepping Easter

nice couple walked by our home a few weeks back and heard me strumming on my ukulele on the front deck. I don’t remember her name, but he left his business card on my car. His name is Christopher Moncrieffe. He does custom music for soundtracks, film, advertisements, websites and social media videos. He also transfers analog audio and VHS cassettes, photo negative and slides to digital formats. And he lives right here in our community. You can contact him
from his website, which is ‘dropdeadugly.net’. Giggle, I love the name of his website! Amber is visiting us during her spring break. So far we have had a really busy week, starting with a drive to Newport Beach with short hikes along the way. Before heading back we enjoyed a takeout lunch of a ‘Seafood Burrito’ from the Newport Cafe. Such a perfect lunch, and we always stop there when in the area. Next time I am bringing my own plate. It is hard to eat out of Styrofoam. Now, hope-

You will get a real-time alert on your cell phone before you feel the ground shaking. That can be just enough time to take cover or head to higher ground! More advanced uses allow ShakeAlert to open fire station garage doors and
elevator doors automatically, slow trains, sound audible alerts in schools and hospitals, protect the electric grid, and more. The system cannot predict earthquakes, but can offer critical seconds of warning when a quake begins. ShakeAlert has been in use in California for more than a year, and it will debut in Washington in May. You don’t need to sign up to get this service; simply enable emergency alerts on your cell phone. For more information on how to do that, go to shakealert.org. I had a nice chat with Jason Elkins, Park Manager for Cape Meares State Scenic
Viewpoint. While Cape Meares Lighthouse and the gift shop will be closed again this summer due to COVID-19 precautions and lingering differed maintenance caused by budget-related short staffing levels over the last year, exciting things are going on behind the scenes. The gift shop will be outfitted with a new metal roof, and a much-needed overflow parking area will be established. There is an area on the left-hand side of the road prior to getting to the existing parking lot where trees blew down and created a natural open space. Friends of Cape Meares Lighthouse applied
for and received grant money to fund an overflow parking space there. The Friends group is partnering with Oregon Parks and Recreation to create the new parking lot, which will hold about 15 vehicles. In phase two of the project, a trail will be created from the new overflow parking area to the Octopus Tree. The department expects to be fully staffed this year, enabling public restrooms and trails to be open. The lighthouse itself and gift shop should be back in operation by late spring 2022. What great news and good things to look forward to!

Thanks to Gordon McCraw, Tillamook County’s Emergency Services Coordinator, for an update on Covid-19 news for Tillamook
County. As we go to press 25% of the population, County-wide, has been vaccinated, with almost half of those finished with both doses. Tillamook County remains in the Moderate Risk category until at least April 9. Beginning this week, all eligible groups will be able to schedule their vaccine appointment directly on-line on a new Tillamook County Vaccine Scheduling Tool. The scheduling tool will allow us to choose the most convenient location from a list of options. Be on the lookout for more information on the details as they’re made public. Local law enforcement reports that a “Grandparent
Scam” is active again. Scammers pose as a grandchild of an elderly person. When a caller answers the phone, they address the person who answers as “Grandma” or Grandpa”. When the victim responds with a grandchild’s name, “So and so, is that you?” The caller pretends to be the grandchild and claims to be in trouble. Often they claim to have been falsely arrested, needing bail money to keep them out of being immediately jailed. A needed emergency hospital visit and urgency to get out of a foreign country are other examples. If you receive such a call, resist the urge to act immedi-
ately. Ask questions that only your grandchild would know. Do not send cash, gift cards, or money orders. Don’t provide any personal information or credit card numbers. If you should fall victim of one of these scams, go to oregonconsumer.gov or call 1-877-877-9392 to receive a complaint form. Happy Easter, dear readers. Happy birthday this week to: Alden Betz, Linda Brown, Kari Clark, Wyatt Clark, Jentzen Dunn, Donna Hale, Clina Heathershaw, Bob Johnsen, Boyd Rulifson, Cory Schmid, Joe Sigman, Emma Thurman, Cheyenne Traxler, David Wheeler and McKenzie Whitaker.
fully I will remember. Well, Rockaway Beach really knows how to celebrate Easter! Your kids will have two chances to wave at the Easter Bunny! Hopefully you can even take pictures with the bunny in the background. At 10:30 on Saturday, April
3rd, the ‘Sugar’ Easter Bunny will be making appearances at Simply Charming and the Little White Church. Your children will enjoy Easter goodies and can wave at the bunny! With Covid, social distancing will be necessary. The bunny isn’t as young as she used to be. Next year, I am sure, the bunny will be full of hugs and kisses. This year we are making the day as much fun as we possibly can! Then, on the same day, at noon sharp, there will be an Easter Basket Drive-thru at the Rockaway Wayside. Masks are required there too. The Easter Bunny, Sugar Bunny’s little sister, will be there and bunny helpers will be handing out baskets to the
kiddos. See, Easter in Rockaway Beach may be different, but it will be most awesome! St. Mary’s by the Sea will truly be celebrating the real reason we celebrate Easter. On Thursday, April 1st, St. Mary’s will have their Holy Thursday evening Mass of the Lord’s Supper at 7pm and adoration until 10pm. Friday, April 2nd, the service is at 3pm. Holy Saturday, April 3rd, they are having their Easter Vigil service at 8pm and Easter Sunday, Masses are at 8:30 and 10:30. St. Mary’s is a beautiful little church nestled up against the ocean. It is a perfect location. (275 S. Pacific) The Rockaway Community Church has a Good Friday
service at 6pm and Easter Sunday service at 10:30. (They are located just across the highway from St. Mary’s at 400 S. 3rd Avenue.) “Get Fit with Rhonda and Friends” will have another outing on Wednesday, March 31st. You can join the group at noon at R&R Coffee; walk up 6th all the way to 3rd then down to 101 and back to R&R. All are welcome! A special ‘hi’ to my friend, Pat Patterson. He reads my column regularly and stays in touch with fun news! “Easter is meant to be a symbol of hope, renewal and new life.” Happy Easter folks! That’s Rockaway Beach, “Sugar Coated!”
ing with food. We would spend the day watching our children, and then grandchildren, hunting for Easter eggs with their Easter baskets. The oldest of our seven grandchildren, Mitchell, is now 28, and the “baby”, Macey Jo, is now 15. She is the last one of the grandchildren to practice driving with grandma, who would be clutching the dashboard. For me, it was sad to see them grow up, but at the same time its pure joy to see them grow up and become their own person. I looked forward to all holidays when our family would gather together. It’s different now; they are married, in college out of state, or working--- much harder to gather us in one place at the same time. But the Easter message stays the same, and I join other Christians around the world in celebrating the “Good News” with gratitude. On March 28th, the Bay City United Methodist Church
was joined by Tillamook County Methodist United, Tillamook UMC, Nehalem Bay UMC, and Camp Magruder in presenting a live stream Palm/Passion Sunday service. They recounted the story of the arrest and handing over of Jesus to be crucified, and of his journey to the cross. If you missed this powerful protrayal of Jesus’s path to the cross, and what it means for us today, you can still watch it by going to the link.. https// www.facebook.com/BayCityOregonUMC/live/ The Bay City United Methodist Church Easter Sunday service will be live streamed on Facebook at 10 a.m.. You can watch it live or at a later time by going to the link.. https//www.facebook. com/BayCityOregonUMC/ live/. For more information please contact the church office at (503)377-2679. Mark your calendar for the Public Works Committee meeting on Thursday, April 1st from 5 to 6:30 p.m. in City Hall. They will be discussing the tree ordnance, the City Park grants, street maintenance fee, facility surveillance, etc. Remember, the decisions the City makes affects us all. Democracy is making your voice heard. In closing today I would like to share this true story
that my daughter found on facebook. No author was identified. In part it read: “After many hours of patiently waiting in the hall of the home, she smiled sweetly when told her room was ready. As she moved her walker toward the elevator, she was given a detailed description of her small room, including the curtains hanging from her window. ‘I love it!’ she said, with the enthusiasm of an eight year old who was just handed a new puppy. ‘Mrs. Jones, you haven’t SEEN the room; just wait.’ ‘That doesn’t matter’ she replied. ‘ Happiness is something you decide over time. Whether or not I like my room doesn’t depend on how the furniture is arranged; It depends on how I arrange my mind. Happiness is a choice.’” The article ends with suggesting five simple things that are her keys to happiness: “Free your heart from hate/discord; Free your mind from worries; Live simply; Give more; Take less.” Now that is a woman who lives life with a full heart of gratitude. Happy Easter. Rejoice. Be happy. Be kind. Thanks for reading the Fencepost, and I’ll see you next week.

t is with great sadness that Gordy was taken from us to soon. He passed peacefully March 12th 2021 at Brookdale East Memory Care in Mesa, Arizona at 71. Gordy lived his life to the fullest until his decline in 2012 from dementia. His loving wife Candy of 25 years was his caregiver up until this year. Gordy always said he could not have grown up in a better place than Astoria and the Astor Court area with “Bob’s Store” and Tapiola Pool where he spent every summer swimming and diving. Gordy graduated from Neah-Kah-Nie High School in 1968. He was an all around athlete and star football player. Gordy was always playing pranks in school, like pulling the fire alarm and playing jokes on people! He began working on boats at the age of 15, and was a Commercial fisherman, Gilnetter, and one of the best blockman on Crab boats. He fished all over Alaska, Astoria, Warrenton and

Y
olanda Frasca Hodgdon passed away peacefully on March 22, 2021, only weeks before her 93rd birthday. Born in San Jose, Costa Rica on April 16, 1928, she was the fifth of five children. Yolanda grew up in Costa Rica and in her early 20’s was introduced to a young American fellow who was traveling through her country. After his return home they exchanged letters back and forth which they had to have translated as he did not speak Spanish and she did not speak English! It wasn’t long before George returned to San Jose, married Yolanda on July 11, 1949, and brought her to his home on Hodgdon Road in Tillamook. That is where they spent their 55 years of marriage, raised their children, and enjoyed friends
and family. Yolanda loved to feed everyone, and was always ready to cook and host a meal in her home. She also loved shopping, crafting, and going to painting classes with friends. She and George traveled the world, by car, train, ferry, cruise ship, airplane, even ricksha! In later years, they made many new and dear friends snowbirding in Arizona. Yolanda was a member of Sacred Heart Catholic Church. She was preceded in death by her husband, George, in February of 2005, and granddaughter, Kathy Fox in June 2011. She is survived by stepdaughter, Carolyn Decker; daughter, Patricia Steiger (Ron); and son, George Hodgdon (Kristine). She is also survived by grandchildren, Mark and Stan Decker, Roni Steiger, Ben Hodgdon, and Jenny Ragan. She leaves behind great-grandchildren, Dustin and David Burdick, Kris Fox, Tessa Hinton, Zeth Decker, Blaire Decker, Britany Decker, Taylor Decker, Makinzie Decker, Nic Decker, Ellis Hodgdon, Bryce and Ayden Hail, as well as beloved nieces, nephews, and many special friends in both the U.S. and in Costa Rica. We will miss her. A service may be planned at a later date. Arrangements in care of Waud’s Funeral Home.
V
an Holstad, beloved husband of Jeannine, his wife of nearly 26 years, father to Jackson, 22, and Grace, 19, son, brother, uncle, friend, coach, and teacher, passed away unexpectedly at the age of 51 due to a heart attack on March 5, 2021. In so many ways, Van was the soul of Central High School, and the entire Panther community is devastated by the loss of such a great man. Van was born and raised in Tillamook, Oregon to Lavern and Shirley Holstad. Even as a child, Van’s giving nature made an impression. When he was only five, he wrapped his beloved big red teddy bear and gave it to his sister Rainy for Christmas. Van was engaged in athletics at an early age, participating in YMCA swimming, baseball, and kids’ wrestling. Van was the first left-handed catcher for Tillamook’s baseball team and played Center for the football team. Van graduated in 1988 from Tillamook High School. As a Western Oregon University Wolf, he participated in wrestling. In 1994, he was a state champion in handball. Van earned his Bachelors of Science and his Masters of Science from Western. In 1998, he began his teaching and coaching career at Central High School. Van taught Global Studies, Government, and Psychology at Central for 23years. He was a model teacher, deeply knowledgeable about his content, but always more concerned about the wellbeing of his students. His booming voice and sudden, frequent, and convivial laugh filled the halls of Central with joy. From the athletes he knew so well to any student who walked by his room with a bowed head and a need for encouragement, Van cared deeply about all students. Because of the way Van embodied the values of Central High School, his colleagues looked to him as a role model. He was constantly asked to lead, serving as department chair for many years, and recently as the Vice-President of the Central Education Association. He was named Teacher of the Year in 2013. A memorial was held March 13th at Central High for the community with a display of mementos from his classroom, his motorcycle and jacket, wrestling memorabilia. Mourners participated in the Panther Stomp. Van married Jeannine Cherie Mesdag on June 9, 1995 at Peavy Arboretum Lodge in the McDonald Dunn Forest in Corvallis, OR. They celebrated their union by taking a 10 week backpacking trip through Europe. Their marriage was built with love, strength, and dedication, providing a strong foundation for their family. They were committed to family meals at the table, attending Central High School activities, cheering on their kids at sporting events, and family vacations when schedules would allow. Van referred to himself as

a wrestling junkie. For two decades, he dedicated himself to building the Central High School wrestling program, coaching many state champions and mentoring scores of students throughout the years. He was named Coach of the Year in 2014. Even when Van stepped down as the Head Wrestling Coach last year, he remained involved because it was so important to him that Central’s wrestling program would remain strong thanks to the coaches and the closeknit wrestling community. In addition to his success with the wrestling program, Van served as an assistant football coach, the referee of the annual powder-puff football games, and the scorekeeper for volleyball. He ran tournaments, announced games, and even taught kids to play the ukulele. He was famous for leading the Panther Stomp. Van inspired and mentored students and colleagues, and, for so many, served as a father figure. Van loved rivers. His summers were filled with taking friends and family from near and far down the Willamette (with a stop at Rogue Brewery) in kayaks, rafts, and inner tubes. He loved listening to live music (he was particularly fond of funk and reggae), lingering afterwards to have a few words with the musicians. Van was a master at connection with a wide and diverse circle of friends. He had a knack for forming meaningful friendship through staunch, genuine and continual support. Because of the strength of his loyalty

Washington. In his later years he became a Corrections officer at Youngs Bay Detention Center in Warrenton, where the young inmates respected him greatly. Candy and Gordy also ran the Oregonian Newspaper for 12 years in Astoria. The true passion in Gordy’s life was Powerlifting. He was fondly nicknamed “The Champ” by all his friends, his best times were in the gym. He worked at Seaside Fitness and Columbia Fitness for many years. He taught classes, personal trained and did security for Miss Oregon. He trained many World Champion Powerlifters, and was known all over the world. He also volunteered at High Schools, and helped out with Special Olympics. Gordy and Candy were blessed to travel all over the world due to his Powerlifting. Gordy was a nine time wold Powerlifting Champion, and held many world records. He once squatted 705 lbs, at 165 lbs! Quite a feat for a man of his stature. He was in the Powerlifting Hall of Fame in Oregon, and also won the Presidential Fitness Award. Gordy’s motto was a quote by Chuck Yeager. “Do what you love, until you can’t do that anymore, backup but never give up.” That was Gordy. Gordy is survived by: His wife Candy, Mesa AZ. His children, Broc Olson, WA; Travis Olson, TX ;Steven Early, AZ. His mother Verna Hellberg, Astoria, Stepmother Roberta Olson, Bay City. Sisters: Dianne Kile, Bay City, Rene’ Hellberg, ID; Julie Wentworth, WA; Sheree Parker, Astoria. Brothers: David Olson and Denis Olson, Bay City. There are also many nieces and nephews. Proceeded in death by: Father Byron Olson, stepfather Edward Hellberg, and brother Butch Olson. There will be a memorial service in Astoria, Oregon in August, 2021, at the Fisherman’s Memorial. Gordy’s ashes will be buried at sea. This will be announced at a later time.

Mooks hand Gulls first loss on Senior Night Joe Warren jwarren@countrymedia.net
Tillamook Cheesemakers improved their Cowapa League record to 2-2 overall with a win Friday evening on the gridiron at home against rival Seaside. Tillamook held the offensive powerhouse to just two scores, a thing the Seagulls have not been used to, outscoring their opponents this season 106-28 so far. The Mooks did their homework on the Gulls offense and were able to hold them to 14 points all evening and under 200 yards of offense while adding in just enough offense to put up 18 points on three scores. The Mooks came out flat in the first quarter and had literally zero yards of offense the first 12 minutes of play. But the Mooks defense were also able to hold off the Gulls powerful offense and at the end of the first quarter the game was tied at 0-0. On the Mooks first possession of the second
quarter, the offense woke up a bit with Trent Buchler under center. After a Seaside punt to the Mooks three yard line, the Cheesemakers pounded the ball to the Seaside 42 yard line. With 9:26 left in the half, Miguel Niemi, broke through the line like a freight train and took off for the goal line and Tillamook’s first score of the evening. The PAT was not good, the Mooks have had trouble with this all season. But Tillamook went up 6-0 early in the second quarter of play. Seaside was able to get some offense going after that Tillamook kickoff, but stalled around mid-field and had to punt. Tillamook took over after a nice runback, on their own 41 yard line. The Mooks decided to keep the ball on the ground and pounded it into the red zone near the end of the first half. With 1:50 left on the clock in the half, Buchler took it in on the keeper and Tillamook went up 12-0 with under two minutes left. A two point conversion attempt by the Mooks went short
and the Mooks were hoping to take a 12-0 lead into the locker room. Seaside got the ball back after the kickoff and put the ball in the air with little time left in the half. With two seconds left, Seaside scored on a 12 yard pass play to the end zone and made the PAT to narrow the score at 12-7 in favor to the Mooks. The Mooks got the ball back to begin the third quarter but fumbled the ball on the first play. This was Tillamooks second turnover of the ballgame and the most hurtful as Seaside scored quickly on just two plays from scrimmage. With the PAT good, Seaside took the lead 14-12 with just over one minute of play in the third quarter. That when Tillamook’s defense dug in. That would be the last and only points the defense gave up for the rest of the matchup. Tillamook’s offense was able to add one more touchdown bringing the final score to 18-14 for the Mooks second win of the season.

Tillamook improves in league after win against Banks led by two seniors Mike Weber For the Headlight Herald
In a matchup between 2019 OSAA Class 4A volleyball state playoff squads, the Tillamook High Cheesemakers showed that they are still undoubtedly one of the strongest teams in the state following an impressive 3-0 win over the Banks Braves Mar. 16 at Banks High School. Tillamook (1-1 Cowapa League, 2-1 overall), guided by fifth-year coach LaVonne Rawe, had a solid hitting performance with a total of 26 kills in the
match. The Lady Cheesemakers won 25-10, 25-18, 25-19, which marked their first win of this short, eight-game season. “It’s been an extreme pleasure to work with our two seniors Sage Veek-peterson and Nessa Hurliman, who just get a little better each time they play and they inspire the team to play better as well,” said Rawe. “After being quarantined for 14 days and coming out and playing as strong as we did is because of the strong performance we had from Sage and Nessa. Banks is always a good compet-
itor and they don’t let the ball drop easily, so it’s always tough to get the ball around them, but it’s fun to come here and play. It’s a very short season, but we just want to continue playing well. We’ve done everything to just get better every day and we’ve had great leadership from these two seniors.” The Cheesemakers play their next game Wednesday at 5:30 p.m. at home against the Seaside Seagulls (1-3 league, 1-5 overall), followed by a Mar. 30 contest against the defending state champion Valley Catholic Valiants (5-0 league, 6-0 overall). Tillamook played on the road Thursday versus the Warrenton Warriors (5-1) of the Class 3A Coastal Range League, but results of the match were unavailable. It was certainly a dominataing Cheesemaker performance over a Braves squad that reached the 2019 quarterfinals. Tillamook trailed just once in the match, which was 1-0 in the opening moments of the first set. Banks (0-4 Cowapa League) stayed close early, but after a 5-5 deadlock, the Mooks took control while displaying a powerful offensive attack (40 percent hitting) and very accurate serving (93.2 percent) A 3-0 Mooks run broke the
tie and put Tillamook up 8-5. A 5-1 run, capped by kill by Hurliman, extended Tillamook’s advantage to 13-6, forcing a Banks timeout. Tillamook then grabbed a double digit lead at 17-7 after a kill by junior middle blocker Makayla Tuiolemotu. “I was really happy to end it that way and Sage and I looked at each other and we just felt like it should be a senior point, so it was a nice way to finish the game,” said Hurliman, who recorded a match winning kill at the conclusion of the 25-19 third set win. “It’s a pleasure to be here and playing with Sage for the last four years has been very good. I’ve been playing volleyball since the fifth grade and I just want to have fun in what might be my final year ever, because I don’t know if I’ll be playing in college.” Tillamook continued it’s strong hitting and serving while dominating the first set and building it’s largest lead of the game at 23-9. A Banks hitting error gave Tillamook game point at 24-9 and sophomore Emily Skaar served a gamewinning ace for the 25-10 victory. In the second set, Veekpeterson served three straight service points putting the Cheesemakers up 3-0. Tillamook extended the margin to 8-1 as freshman defensive specialist Maritza Nieves also served three consecutive service points to force a Banks timeout. “I had lots of fun and our team came together and we really put together a near perfect effort and it showed in our overall good effort against Banks,” said Veek-peterson. Tillamook continued to overpower Banks at the net and soon built a 14-4 double-digit lead. The Mooks increased the margin to the largest of the game when junior outside hitter Taylor Haltiner served an ace, making it 18-5. Banks fought back, slicing the margin to 24-18 and then Tillamook notched the win after a Braves hitting error when a ball sailed out of bounds at the conclusion of the game. Tillamook’s momentum continued in the third set and Veek-peterson was outstanding at the service line as she served seven straight points, including three aces to give the Mooks a 7-0 advantage and forcing a Banks timeout. Tillamook’s all around strong effort was simply too much for the Braves to handle and the Mooks quickly built a 15-5 double digit lead after an ace served by junior setter Chloe Rieger. The Braves then rallied while trying desparately to avoid a sweep and outscored the Mooks 12-6, trimming margin to 21-17 and forcing Rawe to call the only timeout of the match for Tillamook. The Cheesemakers regained control and got match point at 24-19 on a Braves hitting error. Hurliman then pounded a ball to the floor for a match winning kill in the 25-19 third set victory. The Mooks had a total of 25 digs, four block kills and just 13 errors.

Moving forward: Opportunities for walking programs this spring Nancy Kershaw Oregon State University Extension Service
A
re you a current dedicated walker or do you want to get started on a walking program? April is a great time for walking in Tillamook County and National Walking Day, April 7 would be a good time to start a walking program. I’m an avid walker and enjoy daily walks with my dogs at Happy Camp, but also enjoy the social interaction of walking with an organized group. Walking is one of the easiest, least expensive, and COVID-safe ways to increase your physical activity and reap the health benefits associated with regular physical activity. Other benefits to walking include improved memory and attention, better sleep, thinking and learning, as well as boosting creativity. If you need inspiration to begin or continue walk-
ing regularly, check out the article “Don’t Underestimate the Power of a Walk” by Deborah Grayson Riegel – here’s the online link - https://hbr.org/2021/02/ dont-underestimate-thepower-of-a-walk?utm_ campaign=hbr&utm_ medium=social&utm_ source=linkedin. And if you need help getting started, try the “Walk with Ease” program. Through this self-directed program you will develop your own simple walking program and set your own pace! Walk with Ease is a simple fitness program free to all Oregonians developed by the National Arthritis Foundation (but open to anyone who wants to start a walking program). “Walk with Ease” is proven to: reduce pain; build confidence in being physically active; and improve overall health. Participants receive a free “Walk with Ease” guidebook
Banana Oatmeal Muffins Prep Time: 15 min Cook Time: 20 min Ingredients - 1 cup oats (quick-cooking or old fashioned rolled) - ¼ cup nonfat or low-fat milk - 2 eggs - 1/3 cup vegetable oil - 1 cup mashed ripe banana - 1 ½ cups whole-wheat flour - ½ cup sugar - 2 teaspoons baking powder - 1 teaspoon baking soda - ¼ teaspoon salt
and a series of six weekly emails to guide them through the program. Participants will learn how to be more physically active and to set and work towards goals. Register for this free program online at: https://info.pace.oregonstate.edu/walk. The self-directed “Walk with Ease” program is a great companion to the “Walk Well Tillamook County” groups coordinated by Tillamook County Wellness. These groups originally started through a grant as “Step It Up” walking groups and will relaunch for 2021 the week of May 10. Currently there are eight different volunteer led “Walk Well” groups meeting in Tillamook County, some walk one day per week and others walk on multiple days each week. Some groups walk the same route each time and others vary the walking location with groups walking in Pacific City, Tillamook, and
Rockaway Beach. If there is not a group in your area, we would be happy to work with you to establish a new group – contact Nancy Kershaw for more information about starting a “Walk Well” group, nancy.kershaw@oregonstate.edu, 503-842-3433. The 2021 launch of “Walk Well” groups will begin with a county-wide walk in the Pacific City area on Mother’s Day. Watch for more information. If you’re looking for places to walk or hike check out the Tillamook County Wellness Move Well webpage at: https://tillamookcountywellness.org/ move-well/ and click on the link on the left side “Great Places to Get Moving.” And coming soon there will be a new link on the “Visit Tillamook Coast” webpage developed through a partnership with Visit Tillamook Coast, US Forest Service and Tillamook County Wellness

For the Neah-Kah-Nie Pirates, they faced their strongest opponent this year in a Class 2A Northwest League volleyball contest against the undefeated Gaston Greyhounds. Although considered as underdogs, the Lady Pirates (0-5 NWL, 0-8 overall), had hoped to possibly get an upset win against the highly regarded Greyhounds (7-0 NWL, 8-0 overall). The Pirates played tough, but they were just unable to overcome a strong Greyhound squad in a 3-0 (25-4, 25-9, 25-9) loss Thursday at Gaston High School.
