Junior Livestock Auction goes virtual Organizers hope for good turnout at modified sale

Joe Warren Publisher
his year’s Junior Livestock Auction (JLAC) will be a virtual presentation due to the novel coronavirus and the state’s restrictions for Tillamook County dealing with COVID-19 regulations in terms of gatherings. According to Mike Trout, president of the JLAC committee, even though the fair will be different this year, he hopes the community will support the sale for the kids as in the past. Just logon to: tillamookjlac. fairwire.com to register as a buyer. At the site, after you are registered, you can look over entries, review orders , confirm orders and pay for them. This year’s auction will see swine, goats, sheep, beef, rabbits, chickens and turkeys. “These kids work so hard we wanted to be able to host the auction for them this year,” said Mike Trout president of the local JLAC said. “For many of these kids, it is their college money.” Like a live auction, this auction will move quickly starting with the Grand Champion animals, Reserve Champion next and so on. Sales according to Trout will be about every 10 minutes. You can view all sale information on
the site after you are registered. Work to accommodate a sale of this magnitude and importance has been planned since the virus broke out. “I talked to the committee first thing I said, we will hold an auction some how,” Trout said. “So we had the kids move forward with their projects, we’re providing a place to market their animals, like we do every year.” A lot of hard work goes into these auctions. Trout says 110 kids are entered this year showing animals. “Tuesday all animals will be weighed in, they have to make weight,” Trout said. “The kids work so hard on these projects, we really get good participation from the kids and the buyers.” No matter the turnout, Hanna Obrist, who is showing her pig this year and has for the past four years said she learns some valuable lessons from the experience. “It brings us into a bigger community,” Obrist said. “It teaches us responsibility.” Ryleigh Crabtree is also showing pigs this year. She said it’s been good to be able to raise a pig through the pandemic. “It’s brought a since of normality,” she said. “When we started we didn’t know if there would be an auction, but I just keep working raising my pig.”

On the heels of six years of proven success, the Salmon SuperHwy has received the second year of funding of a $1.24 million total award from NOAA’s Communitybased Restoration Program. The funds will allow the project to continue with momentum through 2022. Launched in 2014, the Salmon

SuperHwy (SSH) project replaces old and failing culverts that pose a migration barrier to threatened salmonid populations. To date, more than 80 miles of critical spawning habitat for chinook, coho and chum salmon, steelhead, cutthroat trout and lamprey in the Tillamook Bay and Nestucca River watersheds have been reconnected. SSH has also been praised for increasing public safety by reducing the possibility of road washouts and flooding. “Often, the effects of barrier removal are immediate,” said Dave Harris of the Tillamook Estuaries Partnership. “We observed salmon spawning in Mapes Creek upstream of the former barrier culvert just weeks after the habitat was reconnected.” The key to the Salmon SuperHwy’s success is strategy and collaboration. “Working as a team, we’re able to maximize efficiency and accomplish more,” said Sarah Zwissler with Trout Unlimited who serves as the SSH Coordinator, “Each partner brings skills and resources to the table, and together
we’re making a difference for fish and our communities.” The benefits of SSH don’t end at restoring fish passage and improving infrastructure, it also boosts the local economy. A University of Oregon study shows roughly 80% of restoration project dollars stays in-county, with 90% remaining in-state. The Salmon SuperHwy is a collaborative partnership of federal, state, and local agencies and organizations, and private stakeholders, working together to reconnect aquatic habitat in the Tillamook, Nestucca, and Sand Lake watersheds. Based on inventories of undersized and failing culverts that were barriers to fish, the partnership developed a strategic, scaled approach to reconnect migrating salmon with critical spawning and rearing habitat that will maximize benefits and minimize costs. At its completion, the Salmon SuperHwy will reconnect salmonid populations with more than 180 miles of previously blocked spawning habitat across six major watersheds.

ov. Kate Brown released Tuesday, July 28, new metrics to guide school district decisions about when it is safe to resume in-person instruction, and when a transition to comprehensive distance learning is necessary. Brown said closing schools in the spring was one of the most difficult decisions she made during the pandemic. She uses science and data as her guide. There is clear evidence that students receiving education in the classroom is better for students. “It fosters our students’ social and mental wellbeing, their overall health and often their physical safety,” Brown said. “I know that most parents agree.” This is a highly contagious virus, Brown said. American Academy of Pediatrics is clear that only with safeguards in place and low cases, can schools open for in-person instruction. “The plan each public district adopts for the coming school year is, and remains, a local decision,” Brown said. “And yet, in the time since then, the virus has continued to spread and we must follow clear public health metrics to know when and where it is safe for school to convene inside school buildings.” These requirements will give schools and communities the opportunity to make sound decisions, Brown added. Studies show younger students, kids under 10, have lower rates of illness than older children and adults. “Overall, these requirements align with recommendations from both public health experts and educators,” Brown said. Doctor Dean Sidelinger of Oregon Health Authority said some places have reopened schools safely, such as in Denmark and Germany. There is no simple statewide answer for Oregon. School district may offer limited onsite learning for students with disabilities. “Oregon public health officials have developed transparent evidence-based metrics to help school boards and school districts make local decisions based on local conditions to determine how they can safely reopen school to in-person instruction,” Sidelinger said. The metrics for in-person instruction or hybrid instruction model for all grade levels states the statewide test positivity rate needs to be at or below 5 percent over seven days for three weeks in a row. In the county, there needs to be 10 or fewer cases per 100,000 people over seven days and a 5 percent or less test positivity rate. There needs to be a trend of three weeks of decreasing cases. “Schools will provide in-person education for students in Kindergarten through third grade,” Sidelinger said. “It’s expected that these in-class options will be offered to the extent possible under the reopening plans.” The metrics for K-3 include fewer than 30 cases per 100,000 over seven days and test positivity of 5 percent or less over seven days. Sidelinger said younger students get the virus at lower rates. “We know that opening schools to in-person instruction is not a one way journey,” Sidelinger said. “If we see increasing cases in the community, it may be time for schools to consider moving back

Facebook leaves behind drilling equipment during cable project Hilary Dorsey Staff Writer The Oregon Department of State Lands (DSL) announced in late July that Edge Cable Holdings, Inc., a subcontractor for Facebook, has notified them of drilling equipment that was left behind during the undersea fiber optic cable project near Tierra Del Mar. Edge Cable had been working on laying the undersea cable with a landing at a residential lot in Tierra Del Mar.
Project representatives informed DSL that on April 28, the drill pipe snapped. The pipe was being replaced at a depth that ranged from 40-69 feet. Approximately 1,100 feet of drill pipe, a drill tip, two tools for drill steering and tracking, and approximately 6,500 gallons of drilling fluid were abandoned in the ocean. DSL said Edge Cable Holdings, Inc. did not notify them of the abandoned equipment until June 17. This delay in notifying DSL eliminated any potential

Tillamook County at 30 confirmed COVID-19 cases Leadership discusses PPE supply, COVID-19 cases

Hilary Dorsey Staff Writer
illamook County Leadership discussed at a community meeting Friday, July 31, personal protective equipment supply (PPE), COVID-19 cases and other updates related to the pandemic. As of Monday, Aug. 3, the county has 30 cases. Four cases came over the weekend, which Gordon McCraw, incident command, said was within a family. Two more cases were reported
later in the afternoon. Adventist Health Tillamook President Eric Swanson said Adventist Health is seeing about 48 patients per day across its urgent care facilities. Across Oregon, there are 150 patients hospitalized with COVID-19. “PPE for our hospital, in particular, is more than adequate to continue caring for our patients,” Swanson said. Tillamook County Community Health Centers Administrator Marlene Putman said the county had been steady at 24 cases on July 29. Testing continues to
be those who are symptomatic. There is not a huge supply of tests for everyone to be tested. On July 29, there were zero active cases in the county, Putman said. “We’re encouraging people to stay on top of their preventative care,” Putman said. “Please go ahead and schedule appointments if you feel comfortable doing so.” Putman said the center is scheduling dental appointments for a new dental clinic that is opening in the next couple of months.
Rinehart Clinic is scheduled to receive an Abbott machine, which tests for COVID-19 at a rapid rate, in September. The Tillamook Family Counseling Center is offering a free weekly support group for those who have been impacted by the pandemic. The support group is being co-led by two licensed behavioral health clinicians. The support group takes place on Thursdays from 1-2 p.m. Residents of Tillamook County that are interested in joining the support group can call 503-842-8201. As soon as
an individual signs up, they will receive a link to Zoom to access the meeting. The class is offered free of charge. The group is limited to 20 participants per week.

Taskforce presents details regarding child care in Tillamook County Hilary Dorsey Staff Writer
An Early Child Care and Education Tillamook County Taskforce presented and provided recommendations concerning child care in Tillamook County in a Tillamook County Board of Commissioners meeting Wednesday, July 29. North Coast Region Coordinator Jennifer Purcell said Tillamook County is a child care desert, which is a county with more than three children for each regulated child care spot. Counties across the state have been identified as child care deserts.

The following conditions must be met for in-person instruction for K-3 students or for remote and rural students: • Fewer than 30 cases per 100,000 over 7 days • Test positivity of 5% or less over 7 days • COVID-19 is not actively spreading in the school community • School districts are in compliance with sections 1-3 of Ready Schools, Safe Learners Guidance Transition Planning for Comprehensive Distance Learning For school districts where in-person instruction is occurring during the school year, planning for a switch to comprehensive distance learning should take place, including train-

They compared six regional programs with three local programs in Tillamook County. “We picked these programs because they were similar to the county of Tillamook,” McKenna said. “We picked programs from Astoria, Bandon, Boardman, St. Helens, and others, and compared those to programs in Tillamook County.” In reviewing these programs, they found that those with multi-sector investments had higher salaries and offered com-

Edge Cable hopes to continue the project in January 2021. “Submarine cable projects must be held accountable, and be managed with strong policy tools that protect our natural resources and ocean habitats,” the letter from ORCA and Surfrider read.

Letters to the Editor We need to ‘Just be nice’ I hear that the protests last night were violent in Seattle with many police hurt; I have not heard about Portland yet, I wonder if it was the same. Seattle didn’t have the Federal agents and Portland does, I wonder if that makes a difference or not. I don’t think the situation is as “black and white” as it sometimes appears....perhaps there is a third alternative? Maybe it would be good to get away from dualistic thinking and see things from both sides at once.....seeing the gray area...... seeing the possibilities for real solutions to the many problems of our society.......for inequality and injustices.....for the desire for power and control.....for the greed and discontent....for all the things that divide and anger Americans.....for all the
looting and violence.....for all the businesses suffering loss and closures......for all the jobs lost and those held by those at the top........for perceived unfairness and real unfairness... for desires for more and more and more.....and fear, fear, fear by everyone in one way or another. How do we just Let it Go and Not Worry? How do we find serenity in the midst of chaos? Agreeing to disagree? Listening to others’ views? Doing one kind act every dat? Helping one person at a time? By being nice? Maybe that is the best place to start....just Be Nice!!! Lois Bizieff Rockaway Beach

EWS FLASH! The Tillamook County Libraries have opened their book drops again! Up until this week, patrons needed to return their library items only during the noon to 5:00 pm curbside pickup hours. But now you can return items 24 hours a day, 7 days per week. Just remember that once you drop items into the book drop, they will not be checked in for at least four days as we place everything in quarantine. Also, please note that even though the book drops are open, we are not accepting donated items yet. Why not? The donated items that we do not want to add to our system are always farmed-out to our friends of the library sales and to our bookstore, but those redistribution sources remain closed. Eventually, we will welcome your donations so stay tuned for that announcement. Another major improvement we would like to announce is the Manzanita Library wireless is now working outside of the library. We recently discovof view. For the past month or so, I have stood on Hwy 101 on Saturdays at noon with a sign that says Equality and Justice for All. I am amazed and saddened to have so many people drive by and give me a thumbs down or even flip me off. I sense anger on the9r parts. I guess there really are some people who don’t think we all deserve justice or equality. Of course, while they’re driving by we can’t have a discussion, but I would really like to have a sit down discussion with all sides to share thoughts and ideas. I suspect we’re not all that far apart on issues, but anything that can be read on a sign as people drive by at 20 miles/hour doesn’t really tell the whole story. Many of the people who stand with me on Saturdays at noon have signs indicating that Black Lives Matter. Folks yell at us, saying that All Lives Matter. In defending Black lives, I don’t think any of us are saying All Lives Don’t Matter. Some hold signs that say Defund the Police. I doubt that any of those holding

There is no password required, but note, once you get online, you must open a web browser and agree to our “Acceptable Use Policy” for WIFI to work properly. While the public has been loving our curbside pickup and expanded offerings of our virtual library, we get plenty of questions about when we might allow patrons to re-enter the library buildings. Let me tell you, we research this situation every single day. While a majority of libraries across the country are still closed, we are studying what the libraries are doing that HAVE opened and are writing up our own plan for what might work best in Tillamook County. Once we feel the timing is right, we will seek approval from the library board and the Board of County Commissioners to reopen. We are all excited to welcome the public back, but we need to be sure we do it safely for both staff and our patrons. If you want to get back into the library sooner, there is one way you can
accomplish that. You can apply for one of our open positions to WORK in the library. We have several positions that will be advertised on the county website very soon. Some of the jobs are in Tillamook and one position is in Manzanita. What does it take to work in the library? There is one common thread on all library job recruitments…we are always looking for someone with exceptional customer service skills. It certainly helps if you have had experience working in a library in the past. And of course, a love of books and an attention to detail are desired traits. Some positions have their own special requirements so be sure to read the job descriptions thoroughly. I will end with a little librarian humor. The one thing we do NOT want to hear when we interview potential employees is “I want to work in a library so I can sit around and read books all day.” We actually get that comment frequently during interviews, but nothing could be farther from the truth in real-life. We perform all sorts of tasks as library workers…unfortunately, sitting around and reading is not one of them!

FENCEPOSTS enny and Tomé Francis recently enjoyed a visit from her brother, Peter Watts, and his wife, Jillian. The recently retired couple and their labradoodle, Benson, and cat, Mika, set out from their home in California to break in a new trailer. Cape Meares was one of their first stops on a tour of northern California and Oregon. Peter is a talented architect and would love to find a lot here and design his own home; wouldn’t it be nice for Jenny to have family nearby! The Wattses picked an ideal week to visit Cape Meares as it was Goldilocks weather: not too
I
traveled southeast for a warm weekend in Eugene recently. Maggie (my chihuahua) called shotgun, so baggage rode in the back seat. Among the inclusions was Cathy Griffin’s homebaked sweet potato pie. It made a fine gift to share with my older son, who hosted. We enjoyed a piece after dinner that evening and again for breakfast each morning of my stay. It was indescribably delicious. A very sweet cream colored custard pie, with an almost creme brulee topping. We won’t ask, because the recipe is top secret, but we wonder if it isn’t a sweet russet potato pie? Cathy Griffin is raising medical funds for a needy individual in Nepal.

reetings Bay City! I have discovered that all my wedding gifts are antiques. I wonder if that means they are valuable. But truly, it doesn’t matter. I wouldn’t sell them if they were. I consider them treasures, with history. They are gifts from my wedding and bridal showers that the church women, friends, and family gave me. Each dish, baking pan, or recipe book has a story. I have friendships older than these treasures and antiques. I guess that makes them treasured antique friends. Judy, Debbie and I have been friends since the cradle…..really from the cradle! Our parents were close friends, and they would put the three of us in a crib while they played cards. Now that qualifies as antique friends! I met my friend Ann while we were both
hot, not too cold; in fact, just right. And a belated congratulations to Jenny for her art exhibit at the Hoffman Center in Manzanita last month, rescheduled from March when it was cut short by the pandemic. Jenny and her brother obviously share a creative streak. We walked from the dike road parking lot to the beach the other day to check on our friend Odie, the odiferous whale. He was still there, living up to his name; quite the stench! However, the whale is looking close to mummified. Since washing ashore
on May 27, his skin has shrunk and is stretched like a taut canvas over his bones. The wind has drifted sand over his head and his tail. Apparently, many others also were interested in checking out the whale,
She bakes chocolate or sweet potato pies for $20 each. Call for a spot on her baking calendar, 310-3447057. Cathy also welcomes donations of deposit paid cans and bottles or cash for the cause. Checks, made payable to her, may be mailed to P.O. Box 802, Pacific City, OR 97135. I haven’t seen in writing or heard it yet on the radio, but I have word from the street regarding back-to-school in south County. The school year will start as it ended last academic year, with remote learning. School will not resume in the classroom next month. If a youngster in your household or in your orbit will be five years of age (but
younger than six) before September 1, act fast. All three Tillamook County school districts are recruiting for Kindergarten; new students are also encouraged to register. For students in Nestucca Valley School District, go to nestucca.k12.or.us to complete a registration form. These can be printed and delivered to the main office at Nestucca Junior/ Senior High School, 34660 Parkway Drive, or mailed to P.O. Box 99, in Cloverdale, 97112. The paperwork can also be requested by telephone; call 503-392-3194. Students residing in Central Tillamook County (Tillamook, Cape Meares, Netarts and Oceanside) can get
newlyweds; and we still travel with Ann and Bill in our RV’s to this day. When you can travel with someone, you know they are good friends. My most interesting and entertaining friend is Norma Seely. Norma and I have been friends since 1977 when we both lived in Lakeview, and now we both live at the coast. I love all my friends and cherish them, but my antique friends are like gold to me. One of my most cherished friends, although I did not know her a lifetime, passed away July 31. Her name was Carol Bulger. I was new to the Bay City church. I was sitting all by myself two rows back when Carol and her sister-in-law Heidi McCraw turned around and said “Girl, why are you sitting back there by yourself! Come up here and sit with us”. They

scooted over and put me right between them. I had just met my new best friends. I loved Carol. I loved her stories about her life—some were funny, some were sad. A cute story I love to picture in my mind is of Carol dressing her younger brother, Gordon McCraw, in his best outfit and walking him to Sunday school hand in hand. Although Carol’s life was not free of heartbreak, you would not know it. She cared about others more than herself. She saw the good in everyone. She would do anything to make your life
the beach, the salt air, who knows what; there were 33 cars in the parking lot on a weekday! Some of the folks were camping, as we saw a number of tents pitched on the sand. I’m wondering if the new porta potties in the parking lot are increasing the crowd. Or, more likely, it is that wandering about on Bayocean Spit is a fun and socially distanced thing to do, so more people are choosing it as a pastime during this pandemic. Fall salmon should be in the lower Nehalem Bay by the time you read this column. In a couple of weeks, some early salmon should
be in the upper Tillamook Bay. Here’s a handy checklist to help you get ready to catch a few of them: • Check lines and leaders for sun damage and nicks; • Sharpen hooks; • Lubricate reels; • Tune up boat motor; • Be sure you have a boat plug and put it in a handy place; • Equip your boat with the proper number of life vests, a fire extinguisher, a whistle and running lights; • Make sure you have a current fishing license and salmon tag; and, • Keep checking the fishing regulations, as they
can change throughout the season. Tight lines to all you fisherfolk! A safety postscript: The slim manual/ automatic inflatable life jackets are for individuals age 16 and over. Younger children must wear the larger, old-fashioned personal flotation devices. Always wear your life jacket. If you have some personal or neighborhood news to contribute, please give me a call at 503-842-8608 or e-mail me at ellensteen2@ gmail.com. I’d love to hear from you.

The free event is planned from noon until 5 p.m. on Saturday, September 5. Donations will be collected toward a complete set of “jaws of Life” tools for Nestucca Rural Fire Protection
District. The cruise-in will not include live music this year as “organizers seek to eliminate congregation into groups” due to Covid 19 concerns according to publicity materials. We who wish to may experience the “cruise-in as a cruise through.” Let’s plan on joining the fun, and budget a generous donation to be part of a good cause.

Be advised that you can’t stop making them. On day 1; receive starter mix or make your own from 1 cup flour, 1 cup sugar, and 1 cup milk; stir and keep covered. Day 2, 3, and 4; stir and keep covered. Day 5; add 1 cup of flour, 1 cup of sugar, 1 cup of milk, stir and keep covered. Day 6, 7, 8, and 9; stir and keep covered. Day 10; add 1 cup flour, 1 cup sugar, 1 cup milk, and stir well,
take out 3 cups of batter and put 1 cup in three separate containers for three friends. To your remaining batter add ¾ cup of oil, 1-1/2 tsp cinnamon, 3 eggs, 1 cup brown sugar, 1-1/2 cups flour, 1-1/2 tsp baking soda, 1-1/2 tsp salt, 2 tsp vanilla; mix well and fill muffin cups 2/3 full. Bake at 350o for 20 minutes. You can experiment with adding your own ingredients, such as grapenuts cereal, nuts and raisins, or extra spices like nutmeg, for more of a spiced muffin. Makes approximately 22 muffins. If you need clarification about this recipe, call or email me. Well that’s all for this week; but do me a favor. Call a friend and tell them how much you love and cherish them, and thank them for being your friend. Thank you for reading the Fencepost, and I’ll see you next week.

Letters to the Editor Challenge to candidates We are witnessing how a pandemic can play havoc with the economy and with our lives. We have seen the horrific cost of incompetent leadership. But even as we live through this crisis, an even more devastating one is slowly creeping up on us. We must not make the same mistake twice. Across the globe, both air and ocean temperatures are rising. This is a measurable fact, not opinion. The percentage of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is increasing. This is a measurable fact, not opinion. One property of the carbon dioxide molecule is that it acts like a green house. This is an undisputed physical property of this gas. Glaciers are retreating and the ice caps of Greenland and the Antarctic are melting. These are measurable facts, not opinions. Around the globe ocean levels are rising and this rate is increasing. During the last five years, sea levels have risen 66% faster than during the latter half of the twentieth century. These are measurable facts, not opinions. None of these
facts can be ignored in the hope that they will go away. There is too much hard data for this option. We who live on the coast will be bearing the brunt of this new crisis. Ocean warming and acidification are likely to play havoc with our fishing and oyster industries. Towns and farms along the coast will be ravaged and flooded by rising sea waters, giving rise to Bayocean-like events up and down our coast. The timber harvest could well be adversely affected by rising temperatures and changes in rainfall. All of this could come about in the life time of children born in this century. We urgently need to elect representatives who have the courage and wisdom to start addressing this coming crisis. To label climate change a hoax is not an option. To hope that a miracle will occur and the problem will simply go away on its own is not an option. To run away from Salem when hard choices need to be made is not an option. We need representatives who will make decisions based on the future of our grandchildren. I urge candidates of all parties to let us know in
concrete terms what they would do to address climate change should they be elected to represent us in Salem. Perhaps this paper would be willing to offer each candidate the space in which to do so. First prize should go to anyone who can link economic recovery from the pandemic with addressing the coming challenge of climate change. John Rogan Tillamook
Response to Guest Column by Jacob Hilger
This letter is in response to the Guest Column by Jacob Hilger, Coast Reforestation Manager, Stimson Lumber Company. He cites the Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI) as evidence that Stimson is doing a good job in maintaining coastal forests into the future. However, SFI is 80 percent funded by the industry (a bit like a Chamber of Commerce for industrial forest operators). Also, ODF regulation enforcement of Oregon’s forest practices act is funded by the harvest
tax, most of which flows thru ODF and back to the industry’s PR arm, the Oregon Forest Resource Institute (see oregonforests.org for its funding mechanism, governance, etc.). Truly independent, third party verification of sustainable forest practices is only available via the international Forest Stewardship Council, which has as one of its principles, • PRINCIPLE #4: COMMUNITY RELATIONS AND WORKER’S RIGHTS - Forest management operations shall maintain or enhance the long-term social and economic well being of forest workers and local communities. This is an area of concern for people involved with North Coast Communities for Watershed Protection. Here is the FSC info re pesticide use: “A pesticide is any substance, or mixture of substances of chemical or biological ingredients which aims to repel, destroy or control any pest, or regulate plant growth. If a pesticide is toxic, it can impact the soil, water, atmosphere, and landscape of a forest. In addi-
tion, toxic pesticides can also have an impact on the health of workers, local communities as well as food and water. What does the Pesticide Policy aim to achieve? In the short-term, FSC aims to: • Eliminate the use of the most hazardous chemical pesticides; • Promote best practices to minimize associated risks to human health and the environment when using chemical pesticides; and • Reduce the overall volume and number of chemical pesticides in use. In the long-term, FSC aims to eliminate the use
of chemical pesticides in FSC-certified forests.” There is a massive liquidation going on in our coastal forest by Stimson, Weyerhaeuser and Greenwoods. This is not sustainable and bad for fish and our drinking water sources. If Stimson et al. want to convince us they are practicing sustainable stewardship of Coast Range forests, why don’t they seek FSC certification? Victoria Stoppiello North Fork of the Nehalem

n March 21, 1948, Harriet and Ed Finn welcomed their first child, Susan, to this world. On July 24, 2020 her husband, Bill, her children, Rachel and Seth and other family members, were with her as Sue Dryden left this world. Born in Portland, Oregon, Sue attended Chapman Grade School and graduated from Lincoln High. After two years at California Western University, she returned to Oregon to attend Oregon State University. It was on a blind date on February 10, 1970, that she met the love of her life, Bill Dryden. He had made a spaghetti dinner for that first date and so every February 10 they had a spaghetti dinner. Sue graduated from OSU with her BS in Chemistry and she and Bill were married on July 18, 1971 at the Benson Hotel in Portland. Sue and Bill started married life in Blodgett Oregon, then moved to Reedsport, Tillamook, Salem and Astoria (all in Oregon) and finally to Boise in 1994. For his entire career, Bill was a forester and they frequently moved as he took new jobs. At each stop on that journey, Sue made lifelong friends. She joined Beta Sigma Phi and has many “sisters” in Astoria, Salem and Boise. On January 7, 1978, Sue and Bill welcomed Rachel to their family. Rachel’s arrival was followed by Seth’s on April 14, 1981. In 2007, Seth married Deena and then Sue gained the title of “Grandma SuSu” with granddaughters Ashlyn

The recommendation to the commissioners was to establish a Tillamook County Early Child Care and Education Commission.

Baertlein said there is some formalized action they will have to take to set up the commission.
and Celeste. In 2019, Sue was honored to walk the aisle with Bill and Rachel at her wedding to Ryan. Sue’s first job was childcare in Reedsport at 25 cents an hour. As the family moved, Sue also worked as a bookkeeper at a local meat packing shop (worst job ever), a proofreader at the Tillamook Headlight Herald and a teaching assistant in Salem. She then found her calling as a substitute special education teacher at Boise High. Sue loved to help her students better understand math and other subjects. Some would greet her on the street or in stores with a “Hello, Mrs. Dryden”. She valued those moments. Sue enjoyed traveling especially with special friends Judy, Clint, Milt and Karan. A trip to New Zealand, a cruise around Italy and a river cruise in Europe were special times. Each winter, Sue and Bill would join friends in Puerto Vallarta and Mazatlan for weeks of sunshine and companionship. Boise State basketball and football games were also high on her list of fun events. In 2004, Sue was diagnosed with cancer. With the help of Dr. Norm Zuckerman, she won that war. With a second cancer diagnosis in 2014, she fought another war that ended on July 24th. Sue is survived by Bill, her husband of 49 years; her daughter, Rachel (Ryan); her son, Seth (Deena); her grandchildren, Ashlyn and Celeste; her sister, Nancy Davis (Brian); brother David Finn (Beth) and many cousins, nieces, nephews and in-laws. She is loved and will be remembered by innumerable friends.

The next step will be drafting language for the Tillamook County Early Child Care and Education Commission. Purcell said as we move into the fall, they may want to look at child care a bit more broadly due to COVID-19. Commissioner David Yamamoto added that they should look at the older child population as well. “We need to make sure we provide the proper environment for all children,” Yamamoto said.

GARDENING MATTERS
Trying out greenhouses
G
reenhouses. I think there must be a shape and size for every gardener and every garden. As I page through my latest English Garden magazine, I can only long for one of the lovely English-type conservatories so often seen in British gardens. Ah, but those are more for looks that for working. Greenhouses can come in kits that can be assembled by someone with a moderate knowledge of putting puzzles together. They can be large hoop houses like the one in the Master Gardener’s Learning Garden at the County Fairgrounds. Or they can be small enough to tuck into a corner of the yard. They can also be custom designed and built to fit your needs. I spoke recently to my friend Janet who has recently had a working greenhouse installed in her yard. She was very forthcoming when I asked her all sorts of questions and even made the suggestion that greenhouses would make a good “Gardening Matters” column. I agreed! Janet is not new to greenhouses as she had one in a previous home. She admits to making a lot of mistakes with that one and really did her research before having a custom

one built at her new home. She not only did research, she visited greenhouses of several friends to see what tips she could use when designing her own. First and foremost was location. Her old greenhouse had been up a long driveway, much too far from the house and garden. When I asked her if a sunny or shady location made the most sense, she quoted Goldilocks: Not too much sun, not too much shade, “It needs to be just right.” Becoming familiar with the sun’s path across the sky for an entire year can best help you decide where a greenhouse would be best located. They can be quite an investment so patience and research are a must. And regardless of how much sun a greenhouse gets, be aware it will get hot inside. Janet turned to some clever English design in an automated venting system. It involves cylinders of bees’ wax! When the bees’
wax heats up in the sun, it triggers an automated opening of the vents. As the day cools and the bees’ wax cools with it, the vents automatically close. After a few years, the bees’ wax may lose its volume but the cylinders are easily replaced. Pretty clever in my book. And it saves Janet from having to visit the greenhouse twice or more in a day to open or close the vents. Janet also installed a clever system for her shade cloth which needs to be pulled over the ceiling on very sunny and hot days. (See photo) Due to the greenhouse having a tall shed roof, instead of putting it on the outside as most are done, Janet has rigged up a shade cloth with gromets onto two wires, one at the top and one at the bottom of the inside roof levels. Because they are grommeted, they slide easily, like opening a curtain. An exhaust fan is also a necessity as the warm air will have to be moved out of those vents to keep plants from withering. Janet has her fan on a thermostat which trips the fan when the temperature rises above 85 degrees. Of course, the winds along the coast will be an issue as well, so the greenhouse should be placed
in such a way as to not be affected with the summer north winds nor the winter south winds. This may be a harder spot to find than the sun/shade issue. Janet is lucky enough to have hers in a small courtyard which is protected year-round. Not all of us have that luxury, so any greenhouse will have to be well-anchored. Janet chose a clear, ribbed, hard plastic for her windows instead of glass or plastic sheeting. She does feel that a smokey color might have kept the greenhouse cooler from the sun, but with her vent and fan system, that doesn’t seem to be an issue. Janet also had bespoke benches made for her plants to grow. (I love the word “bespoke” – so very British – and it basically means custom-built.) They are a comfortable size for her to work on and go around three sides of the greenhouse. The fourth side is the entrance and Janet has placed a dwarf Meyer lemon and a dwarf Satsuma orange tree on either side of the door. Janet’s greenhouse has a shed-type roof in that it is 12’ high at the entrance side and slopes down to a 6’ height at the opposite side. Still plenty tall for tomatoes
and peppers to grown. In fact, since the greenhouse was completed in March, Janet has had great success in growing tomatoes, peppers, and squash and will trying her hand at propagating shrubs this fall and winter when the veggies are done. Janet’s greenhouse is not a large one – she kept it small so
it wouldn’t need a permit – but she sees it as already being one of her favorite spots in her yard. “I may even move my easel in there this winter and try my hand at painting again,” Janet tells me. Sounds like reason enough for us all to have a greenhouse.

efore I begin writing my column, I would like to wish a wonderful birthday greeting to a very special friend. Happy birthday to Sue Wilson. Enjoy your day with your loved ones and know you are in my thoughts. You are a truly awesome lady and friend. In 2017, the osprey was declared the Oregon State Raptor by the Oregon legislature. The osprey usually nests within two miles of water, and these big guys love to eat fish. So, if you see discarded fishing line or gear, please remove it and properly dispose of it. Anything to help your state raptors survive, right? Are we having lovely weather or what? We have been busy working on our house and enjoying life. Dale and I take three mile walks twice daily and I have even lost 10 pounds. We are not going around many people, except we buy groceries occasionally and get our house supplies at Home Depot. We often visit our daughter in Milwaukie, and she visits us

often since she is off work. Last week we stopped at the DeNoble Farm Stand in Tillamook. We bought a massive onion, which should last awhile, eggplant and zucchini. Amber is going to make a stir fry with our yummy veggies, which means I will have an evening off from cook duty. I miss eating out most of all. I never realized how often we do eat out. Sweet Tomatoes in Clackamas, was all three of our absolute favorite place to eat in Milwaukie. Unfortunately, they have closed their doors forever. I guess when this pandemic is over we will have to find a new favorite place. Sounds like it will be
awhile before we have to worry about that. The Bend Ukulele Group (BUGS) has been having weekly online jams and an ‘open mike’ once a month. A few of the Salty Strings Ukulele Group have performed for the BUGS jams, and I am so proud of Scott Fisher and Steve Tackett for sharing their talent with them. I have received so many personal messages on how awesome their performances were. And they really were. If you want to enjoy some of our music, join The Salty Strings Ukulele Group on Facebook. We have 77 members, and are still going strong through this pandemic. Hopefully soon we will be able to jam as a group again. I will just bet that there will be improvement in each and every one of us. I really miss the group jams though. It is not the same playing by myself. “Respect for ourselves guides our morals, respect for others guides our manners.” That’s Rockaway Beach, “Sugar Coated!”

Tillamook Bay Seafoods goes global In the words of the Port of Garibaldi Manager: Mike Saindon “one of our goals here at the Port of Garibaldi is to create an environment that affords our local business the opportunity to be successful now and well in to the future.” Tillamook Bay Seafoods operates a seafood wholesale landing station. This past week, Tillamook Bay Seafoods has achieved placement on the “EU Approved Establishment List” which will allow this operation to not only unload albacore tuna for shipment domestically, but also export to the EU. I have been working as a consultant for the Coons since January of 2020, working with NOAA, the FDA and the Department
of Agriculture. During this Covid 19 pandemic, there were many barriers and challenges, however, receiving the notification that Tillamook Bay Seafoods will be placed on this Approved Establishment List was a huge achievement. This is a very exciting time for the Coons, the Port and the City and will serve our economy and create a buzz on the Port of excitement and accomplishment. Developing a partnership with the American Albacore Fishing Association known as AAFA, the largest purchaser of coastal albacore tuna, Tillamook Bay Seafoods will be an unloading station on behalf of AAFA for both domestic and EU shipments. There are currently five AAFA member local Garibaldi boats.
This new achievement, being placed on the “EU Approved Establishment List” will afford these local AAFA boats the opportunity to deliver to their home port, come home to their families. It also allows for other boats to deliver to the Port of Garibaldi as deemed necessary. Timothy Thomas, President of AAFA stated: “ adding Tillamook Bay Seafoods as an additional unloading station for the association especially for the EU, provides opportunities for not only the AAFA Garibaldi boats to unload, but other boats that may be close by and wish to unload”. Jeremy owner and operator along with his brother Jesse and father Jim Coon had the following to say: “when we first began
this venture we realized in order to be successful it would take support of the Port of Garibaldi and the City of Garibaldi, along with applying for grants to assist us in development of the business. The Port of Garibaldi has been instrumental in helping acquire the space for Tillamook Bay Seafoods, along with the City of Garibaldi whom provided a business development fee program that did not overwhelm us financially or impact our available funds. Maighread Thomas took this project on and made this achievement happen and we are very thankful. Along with this we thank the Rural Development Ini-
tiatives team for allocating us monies from the Ford Family to help purchase a hoist. It truly take a community like this to help locals realize their dreams. And without our dedicated fishing fleet none of this would be possible.” Geoff Wullschlager, City Manager of Garibaldi had to say the following: “This partnership is indicative of the collaborative spirit and entrepreneurialism that our city, port, and region will come to rely on as we face new challenges in the static, and post COVID-19 economy. Building relationships, and leveraging resources that are local truly is a tide that raises all boats. I am
proud of the accomplishments that Tillamook Bay Seafoods has displayed and look forward to the economic development that will occur in our community as a result.” Port Manager, Mike Saindon says: “It is very rewarding to see the next generation of business owners like the Coons, and fishermen establishing businesses like Tillamook Bay Seafoods that will carry our Port and region into the future. The Port of Garibaldi and Commissioners are working diligently to make the Port what it once used to be, a port that is always awake and ready to welcome.”
Jensen wins Club Championship, Lane secures senior champ

t was two days of competitive hacking and slashing, and some very good play as golfers converged on the tree-lined difficult 18-hole layout at Alderbrook Golf Course to compete in the coveted Club Championship. This year, 18 golfers in three flights teed it up in the annual stroke play event. Nathan Jensen, also know as the ‘Big Easy’ outlasted the field this year to win his third Club Championship title. Jensen fired a one over par 73 on day one. Sleeping on the lead didn’t hurt the big man as he matched Saturday’s score with another 73 on Sunday to hold off local standout, Keith Thompson, who fired rounds of 76 on Saturday and a one under
par 71 on Sunday. Joe ‘Hacker’ Warren won the B flight shooting a 75 on Saturday and following it up with a dismal 81 on Sunday. Warren’s first day round was good enough to hold off the rest of the field in the B flight. Ted Lane was second place in the B flight, shooting himself out of the tournament with a 85 on day one, but Lane fired back with a much better 76 on Sunday, securing second place. In the C flight, Al Fisher jumped out to a substantial lead shooting 80 on the first day. Fisher followed it up with a 92 on Sunday, but held onto the lead in the C flight. Roger Miller was second place in the C flight shooting 92 on Sunday and 87 on Saturday.
Mens Club President Roby Lane, won the Senior Club Championship for golfers 50 and over. Lane carded a 78 on Saturday and 77 on Sunday. Both Jensen and Lane will represent Alderbrook Mens Club at the Oregon State Club Championships, Jensen playing in the open division and Lane playing in the seniors division. This year’s net winner was a former Club Champ. Glen Brock, shotting 136 for a two day total to claim the net championship. Two day totals A Flight Jensen 146 Thompson 147 Jones 148 Marcum150 R.

Go picnicking for a better tomorrow and lifestyle Dana Zia The Golightly Gourmet
W
hen is the last time you went on a picnic? I mean an honest to goodness, basket full of goodies, let’s feed the ants picnic? I thought so. It’s been a while, huh? Me too. There is something so delightful and memorable about a good old fashion picnic that I think we all need to slow down and with proper COVID-19 safety precautions make them happen more often. Eating outside can take a simple walk and turn it into an enjoyable adventure, a romantic occasion or just a welcome change of pace. A picnic doesn’t really have to be a big production; you can just grab some peanut butter and celery sticks and head for the park or you can plan a bit and make it just a wee bit more special. Taking the time to enjoy life outside, particularly in these warmer summer months, is a great way to invite healthy lifestyle into your life. There are many great foods to take but there are several wrong foods to avoid for picnics; foods that will spoil, foods that are meant to be very cold, or piping hot, since you can rarely guarantee either; and foods that require laborintensive eating methods.
(Messy is bad) Stay away from these foods and you will find your outdoor meals much more relaxing and fun. There are the classic picnic foods that many of us grew up on and are devoted to like potato salad, sandwiches and watermelon. They are easy to fall back on. Yet I encourage us to expand our picnic repertoire and embrace some new and very easy foods. (Let’s keep it easy so we’ll actually do this!) I have compiled a list of some deliciously easy foods for your gastronomic soirée out into the great outdoors. Hopefully all these ideas will stimulate you to get out and enjoy nature and tasty food in this beautiful season. Go picnicking for a better tomorrow and life! ~Salad in a jar~ Get a large mouth mason quart jar and assemble a salad in it in this order; dressing on the bottom lettuce on the top with the details in the middle. If the lettuce mix touches the dressing it gets all wilty and gross, so dressing in first, then use a hearty veggie like shredded cabbage, carrots or peapods next. Layer from there with bite sized yummies like celery, cucumber, nuts, cheese, cherry tomatoes, apple chunks tossed in lemon
juice, black olives, berries and sprouts. (avocados don’t work to well in this mix) Think color and flavors. Then, when you are ready, just dump your salad out of the jar on a plate and voila! A perfectly portable salad. Use your imagination on salad in a jar but here are a few examples to get you going: • One of my favorite salad combinations: in this order in the jar, raspberry vinaigrette, peapods, shredded carrots, chopped hazelnuts, strawberries, finely diced red onions, feta cheese and spinach on top. • A Caesar salad jar would go together something like this; Caesar salad dressing, shredded carrots, diced celery, chunks of grilled chicken breast, or salad shrimp, green onion, parmesan cheese, and top off with romaine. (Skip the croutons or bring them along in a separate baggie. They get all mushy in the jar.) • Cobb salad in the jar; Red wine vinaigrette, celery, red cabbage, fresh corn kernels, red bell pepper, red onion, boiled eggs, bacon bits, chopped ham, grilled chicken breast and romaine. If you want avocado, bring a whole one and cut it up on the salad right before you eat it.
More picnic options • Caprese salad skewers; on bamboo skewers thread washed cherry tomatoes, marinated mozzarella balls and basil leaves. So good you’ll wonder why you haven’t done it before! • Lightly steam a bunch of veggies like asparagus, green beans and carrot sticks and serve with your favorite dip. Or puréed jarred roasted red peppers with feta, marjoram or oregano and parsley, olive oil and garlic for the dip. Nom nom • Try fresh skewers. Grill or cook chicken breast, tofu or a nice steak then cut into bite sized pieces. Skewer on bamboo skewers with fresh cherry tomatoes, pineapple and cucumbers. Serve
with ranch or blue cheese dressing. • Bake your favorite brownie or cheesecake in the small one cup jars. After they are cool, top with a berry jam and fresh berries and put the lid on. Portable heaven. So now that you are armed with all these abundant ideas, get out there and enjoy the great outdoors with fun food and family time! Remember to follow current COVID-19 safety guidelines, keep a physical distance of 6ft from anyone not in your immediate household, wash your hands often, and don’t forget to bring your face covering when you are out! If you are looking for places to picnic, check out
and play in our “Explore Your Outdoors” bingo activity. To make it fun and easy, our team has assembled a list of 24 area locations and activity suggestions for local day trips and outings. Most locations are family-friendly and highly accessible to people of all abilities, and game information and materials are available in both English and Spanish, visit tillamookcountywellness. org/bingo for more information!

Oregonians continue to receive increased food benefits in August SNAP benefit. Households that already receive the maximum benefit will not receive any additional benefits. This allotment will not permanently change a household’s monthly benefit amount. It is a temporary supplement to help during the current health crisis. The Department of Human Services will not be sending individual notices to households about the emergency allotments. In addition, Oregon received approval to continue to waive the requirement to complete an interview for new SNAP applicants. This change will allow the Department of Human Services to process applications faster and better serve those Oregonians hardest hit by the COVID-19 pandemic. Staff will still reach out to new applicants to offer additional resources, explain requirements and answer questions. Questions? Learn how to apply for SNAP and other benefits online or by phone at https:// www.oregon.gov/DHS/COVID-19/Pages/Home.aspx.

The Oregon Department of Human Services has received approval by the federal Food and Nutrition Service to continue in August to provide increased food benefits and waive the interview requirement for new applicants – making it faster and easier for Oregonians to access benefits. This will result in an additional $30 million to eligible Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) recipients in August 2020. “As the pandemic continues, access to food has worsened greatly,” said Self-Sufficiency Programs Deputy Director Claire Seguin. “Providing another month of emergency assistance will help ease the threat of chronic hunger in Oregon.” SNAP households will automatically receive the additional allotment in the same way they receive their current benefits. For most customers this is an EBT card. The additional benefit amount will be disbursed on the schedule below to all eligible SNAP households. No additional action is needed from Oregonians already enrolled in SNAP. The increase brings all households to the maximum

Unit #106 Julius Jortner Unit #118 Julius Jortner Unit #77 Krystal Wright HH20-296 NOTICE OF ELECTION & RECEIPT OF BALLOT TITLE Published pursuant to ORS 255.085 Notice is hereby given that a ballot title for a measure referred by the North County Recreation District has been filed with the County Clerk of Tillamook County, Oregon on July 29, 2020. The November 3, 2020, General Election will be conducted by mail pursuant to ORS 254.465. An elector may file a petition for review of this ballot title in Tillamook County Circuit Court no later than 5:00 p.m. on August 7, 2020 pursuant to ORS 255.155. CAPTION: General Obligation Bonds to Construct and Equip New Swimming Pool QUESTION: Shall North County Recreation District issue $4,355,000 in bonds to help finance construction of a new swimming pool? If the bonds are approved, they will be payable from taxes on property or property ownership that are not subject to the limits of sections 11 and 11b, Article XI of the Oregon Constitution. SUMMARY: The bonds and other funds are expected to finance the construction of a new swimming pool. This would include site improvements, construction, equipment, furnishings and bond issuance costs. The pool would replace the existing pool which was built in 1930. The 90 year old operating systems have created expenses for repairs as well as numerous closures. The State of Oregon has stated that they are allowing the continued operation of the pool because we are actively working on a replacement. The District has saved $2,013,658 and is planning to borrow $3,000,000 for the new pool. The bond, if approved, would provide the remaining funding to complete

the project. The District would establish a citizen oversight committee to ensure proceeds are used for the purposes indicated. Bonds would mature in not to exceed 25.5 years from issuance and may be issued in series. The estimated tax rate is $0.1335 per $1,000 of taxable assessed property value. Actual levy rate may differ due to changes in interest rates and assessed value.

Hi. They call me Miss B. I’m adoptable right now. I decided to show you one of my glam photos just in case you needed a little extra incentive to pick me.

Here’s the online adoption app if you’re interested. Adoption fees range from $75-100.
United Paws is not a shelter, and most of our cats and kittens are in foster homes where they are getting ready to be in your home! Visit our facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/ unitedpaws Watch for adoption events in Tillamook, and at Petsmart on 185th in Hillsboro. Submit an online application here.
