Confirmed COVID-19 cases remain at six Hilary Dorsey headlightreporter@countrymedia.net
A
sixth case of COVID-19 in Tillamook County was reported on social media Tuesday, April 14. The Tillamook County Community Health Centers confirmed the case, a person between the ages of 40-50. Public health department staff is working with the individual who remains under self-isolation at home. A contact investigation is ongoing. During a County Leadership Team Teleconference on Monday, April 20, Community Health Centers Administrator Marlene Putman said there have been no new posi-
tive tests and the county is sitting at six positive cases. “The State of Oregon issued a new testing report that is available,” Putman said. “It provides a summary of testing by week and indicates that positive testing results have remained consistent.” Putman said the continued goal is to increase testing that is available. The big priority will be working with community partners. Oregon state Sen. Betsy Johnson said rural hospitals continue to struggle. A couple of people she spoke with cannot receive help right now because of the lack of personal protective equipment. As of April 20, the Oregon

1918-20 pandemic baby Orella H. Chadwick celebrates 101 years Tilda Chadwick Jones (former Headlight Herald reporter)
A
t the end of WWI and the beginning of the 1918 “Spanish Flu” pandemic that infected 25% of 1 billion of the world’s population, (Carrie) Orella Holloway was born at the family farm house in rural northern New Mexico on April 25, 1919. Unlike today’s pandemic, Orella’s family had no home electricity, phone, car, radio, newspaper, or electronics. Unknown to the family and surrounding community, the world’s pandemic was never discussed. Orella’s earliest world memories are of the late 1920’s deep depression when the family farm was lost. By the early 1930’s the family of nine (Orella was the oldest of 7 children) had a car (gas was $.08/gallon) and converted trailer the family loaded with food and household items. With -$100 in cash, the family drove from New Mexico to Oregon, camping along the way, settling in Imbler, eastern Oregon where Orella graduated from high school and Eastern Oregon College with a teacher’s degree. Her first teaching job was in a one room Arco Molalla County school house with 8 students of differing grades. Orella Holloway married, becoming Orella Holloway
Holmes. The family became a family of three when son, Gary Lynn Holmes, was born. During another memorable time, the 1940’s and WWII, a divorced Orella bought a La Grande neighborhood grocery store and later a skating rink she converted into a restaurant dance hall called Orella’s Garden. A local returning war soldier named Virgil Chadwick began frequenting the business. He first attracted Orella with his smooth dancing and dishwashing skills and the two soon married. The grocery store was sold shortly after Orella’s Garden opened and Orella’s Garden was closed four years later. By then, Orella and Virgil Chadwick had three girls (MaTilda, Diana, and Virgie). In the early 1950’s the family of six moved to Tillamook to dairy farm, first on a farm that is now Gienger Farms and then a farm east of the City of Tillamook. Orella taught school from 1953-71, three years of grade school in Rockaway Beach and 15 years in the Tillamook School District. The children graduated from high school and higher education, married, and had children. Mother Orella’s son Gary, was an A-4 Navy fighter pilot during the Vietnam War (a plane from the pilot’s navy carrier is on the Air Museum display

extensively in the Tillamook community (Methodist Church, P.T.A., Farm Bureau, Toastmistress, 4-H, Camp Fire Girls, Camp Makuala, Chamber of Commerce, June Dairy Parade, et al.), they sold the farm and

Green light for area golf courses during pandemic Local courses remain open with social distancing measures Chelsea Yarnell Guest Contributor Oregon golf courses remain open. But things look a little different. At Alderbrook Golf Course, limiting group numbers and spacing has kept their operation in compliance with social distancing orders. “We’re only allowing groups of two to go out right now,” Alderbrook Manager Amanda Moreland said. “We’re spacing them out a hole ahead of each other so the two can be 6 feet apart with no issues.” To cut down on surface contact, golfers are not allowed in the building and must perform all payment transactions through a small window. Out on the course, all rakes have been removed, walking and pull carts can only be used, and the cups have been turned upside down. Golfers are also asked to not touch the flagsticks. “People are constantly telling us ‘thank you for being open,’ Moreland said “Everyone is so happy that we’re still open.” Alderbrook has limited their hours from 9 a.m. – 5
p.m. seven days a week. Twilight rates begin at 3 p.m. Up north, Manzanita Links has implemented similar protocols. “It’s important that golfers remain at least 6’-10’ feet apart at all times to help curb the spread of illness,” Manzanita Links Owner Matt J. Brown said. “The Governor’s executive orders allow golf courses and some other businesses to remain open as long as social distancing measures are in place and each day someone is designated to monitor the social distancing. Our employees have been trained to make sure folks are following those guidelines.” Manzanita Links has made addition modifications to their operation. The course is walking only, players are limited to a group of two, flagsticks remain in at all times, rakes have been removed from sand bunkers, only one person is allowed in the golf shop at a time, and only staff members are allowed to touch items within the pro shop. “The reception has been really positive,” Brown said. “The most important thing is that our customers and em-
ployees are safe. Our customers have done a great job of embracing the new guidelines and understand we have to adapt and modify our businesses in order to keep them open. All possible contact points around the shop or on the course are also regularly sanitized to decrease risk.” Manzanita Links has also created an option for contactless check in; and bonus, there’s a discount if you utilize the service. “Contactless check in is something we developed early on to make the process of paying for tee times easy and safe,” Brown said. “Folks can go on our website www. manzanitalinks.com and pay right from their phones and go directly from their cars to the putting green or first tee.” Manzanita Links has hours are 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. TuesdaySunday; closed Mondays. “On Mondays we are allowing residents of Manzanita to walk around the perimeter of the golf course which has been very popular with locals as some of the nearby parks have been closed for activities such as walking and hiking,” Brown said. During this time, Man-

Association’s employees are making masks and helping with delivery. The OSU Extension has a 4-H sewing club and kids will be sewing face masks. “We’ve streamlined production,” Bringuel said. “We have people cutting material, people sewing material, people who are completing the face masks, and then we have delivery people.” Bringuel said there are now more volunteers to divide up the work. More community vendors have become involved. Hurd’s Upholstery has been donating materials, a construction company made a
$150 donation, a man donated $100, and Sheldon Oil Company donated almost $200 worth of gas gift cards for the drivers who deliver the face masks to the community. The face mask project has delivered over 100 masks to law enforcement. Masks were also given to Tillamook Fire Department, Garibaldi Fire, Rockaway Beach Fire, Bay City Fire, to the jail, and 50-60 masks to the Oregon Youth Authority. Dutch Bros. received masks, restaurants in Rockaway Beach and Garibaldi, Nehalem Animal Healing, Nehalem Bay House, Griffith’s Place,
Kilchis House, Center Market in Rockaway Beach and Bay City, and community members. Masks also continue to go out to Adventist Health. “We are now starting a huge project for Fred Meyer and Safeway employees, which will be a total of about 400 masks for them,” Bringuel said. Frontline workers, EMS, law enforcement and hospitals are top priority for the project to deliver masks to. Anyone in the community who has health issues, is immune-com-

Coast Guard reminds boaters of cold water drowning dangers The Coast Guard reminds recreational boaters and paddlers to be aware of the risks involving cold water drownings. Even as the Pacific Northwest heads into warmer weather, it can still take many months for the rivers, lakes, and waterways to catch up. The water may be significantly colder than the outside ambient temperature. Always wear a life jacket while out on the water. There is no time to don a life jacket when an accident or emergency occurs. The best vest is the one you wear. “While hypothermia is a real concern, the true cause of most drownings this time of year is the rapid loss of one’s ability to swim or tread water due to cold water immersion,” said Capt. Nathan Coulter, chief of incident management for the 13th Coast Guard District.
“Water temperatures in lakes and rivers are still near 50 degrees. If you enter water at those temperatures without a wet-suit or personal flotation device you may have less than 10 minutes to survive. Stay safe by dressing for the water temperature, not the air temperature.” According to Frank Golden and Michael Tipton, internationally recognized experts in cold-water survival, water below 60-degrees Fahrenheit is immediately life-threatening, and many Washington waterways stay below 60-degrees Fahrenheit year round. Sudden cold-water immersion makes it difficult, if not impossible, for boaters to keep their heads above water and stay afloat. Boating fatality statistics have shown that wearing a life jacket gives boaters the best chance of survival in the event of an
accident, especially in cold water. Small vessels such as kayaks, canoes, rafts, row boats, paddle boards, sailing vessels and open motorboats less than 21-feet long are the most vulnerable to capsizing. Wear personal protective clothing, including dry or wet suits, clothing appropriate for a swim in the water temperature where you are venturing. Boaters don’t just need to wear the proper gear but also need to equip their boats with required and recommended safety gear, such as a handheld VHF-FM marine-band radio, a personal locator beacon and flares. File a float plan. Take the time to write your contact information, with a waterproof permanent marker, on your kayak, paddle board or other personal water craft. A name, address and phone number
can assist first responders in locating you, should your vessel be found. New and inexperienced
boaters should seek education before heading out on the water. Safety courses are offered through the U.S.
Coast Guard Auxiliary and other state and local agencies, which are often offered at little or no cost.
Governor announces framework for loosening restrictions • Increasing the supply of personal protection equipment (PPE), such as masks, gloves and gowns. • Establishing a public health framework that will provide more readily available testing statewide. The increased testing will help the state identify specially where the virus is and to stop it from spreading, she said. Currently, Oregon is conducting between 7,000 - 8,000 tests per week, according to Gov. Brown. The goal is to provide up to 15,000 tests per week statewide. • Developing a contact tracing system for those who test positive for COVID-19 to stop further transmission • Develop a quarantine/isolation process for those who test positive for COVID-19, which includes strategies for nursing home residents. Brown said she will continue to meet with state and local health officials and reach out to businesses to help determine the reopening process. Brown did not give any details on dates or a timetable for when they might begin to loosen the restrictions. “We cannot stand still,” Brown said. “We can, and we will, get through this together.” Anthony Smith, Oregon state director for National Federation of Independent Business, the nation’s leading small-business advocacy association, issued a statement

“We have to be careful,” Oregon Gov. Kate Brown cautioned as she outline the state’s framework for reopening Oregon following the initial impact of the Coronavirus. “We have to be cautious or it will backfire.” During a Tuesday, April 14, news conference in Portland, Brown said there was no set time for the reopening the state’s society and economy and that it will be based on several factors. “If we move too quickly, we will see a spike in cases and that could lead to an overwhelmed hospital system and unnecessary deaths,” Brown said. “We all want to get back to work and to life as normal as quickly as possible, but the truth is the best path forward is a cautious one. A path that procedures gradually and incrementally and carefully. This is not like turning on a light.” Brown said the decision to reopen would be based on a path based on a scientific process that accounts for the need of Oregon’s economy and communities. Brown laid out five main prerequisites for when they will begin to loosen up on the statewide order. • Slowing the growth of COVID-19 in Oregon.
n Project Continued from Page A2 promised, or elderly come up next on the radar, and then the rest of the community. 80 masks were delivered to the homeless. “We’re running Hebo, Pacific City, Cloverdale, Netarts, Tillamook, Bay City, Garibaldi, Rockaway, Nehalem and Manzanita,” Bringuel said. “That’s sort of our Tillamook County that we are serving right now.” Bringuel stressed that they do not charge for these masks or accept payment for them. “We’re not out there charging,” Bringuel said. “There are some other people making masks in the community that are charging for them and we want to make sure people know this is donated out of Tillamook Creamery partnering with us and other community partners, because we want to see the community and county of Tillamook taken care of and have the personal protective equipment they need.” The project is on target to make 250 masks a week to be delivered. Tillamook Creamery purchased 15 sewing machines. “OSU, their teams are going to try to commit to I
believe 40 masks a week or more,” Bringuel said. “They have 40 students in the program that will be getting a kit from us of all the materials they need to sew a face mask.” Bringuel said the group will hand the students a kit to make 20 masks and give them a new kit when they are finished. The group is currently working with Netarts and Nestucca and some of the outlining fire departments and the Coast Guard recently put in an order, Bringuel said. An order has also come in from Marie Mills. Anyone who wants to request masks, the group is happy to help. “After these few last big orders, we will make sure the community is taken care of,” Bringuel said. People have put in their own money to help make this possible. “We’ve delivered to most of the restaurants that are open in Rockaway and we will provide for anyone here in Tillamook that would like a mask,” Bringuel said. “We will continue to get them out into the community.” Linda Machuta is spearheading the project. The group started because Machuta’s roommate works for urgent care and discussed the lack of face masks available.
Muchuta saw this as a need. She put a post out in the county asking people to help make face masks for medical personnel, non-essential businesses, and anyone will immune-compromised or underlying medical issues. The project has since become bigger, better and faster. “There is no way that I couldn’t do this without my son Dylan,” Bringuel said. “He has really helped a lot in the project.” Bringuel said a lot of husbands are helping in the project. Some are helping cut things to be sewn. This has been a community, as well as a family effort. “It’s been really nice to see the community open up and take on this project head on because we have a lot of people to serve and we are still getting masks out to our hospital,” Bringuel said. “What I’m understanding is that Tillamook Adventist is trying to get masks out to people that are immunecompromised that we’re not seeing, so we keep a steady supply going to them.” If people would like to donate, they can do so with gift cards or materials such as fabric, thread, or elastic, Bringuel said. You can email the group at projectfacemask@gmail.com to make arrangements for pickup.
regarding the framework for reopening Oregon’s economy. “Small businesses welcome the start of a conversation surrounding the reopening of Oregon’s economy,” Smith said. “In order to make informed decisions, small businesses need reliable information from their elected leaders, and they need to be included in the conversation. Every day that passes without certainty is a missed opportunity to save our homegrown Oregon businesses – and all the
jobs that go along with them.” “We need to know what the measurables are, so that businesses can be a part of the recovery solution. Without a clear light at the end of the tunnel, more and more small businesses are going to have to shut down permanently,” Smith said. “Nobody wants to see that happen.” Max Kirkendall contributed to this article.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR I’m voting for Erin Skaar
I am honored to have the opportunity to vote for Erin Skaar in the Tillamook County Commissioner race and I hope you will join me. I have known Erin for more than 15 years and have worked with her on several projects, programs, and initiatives throughout those years. I have repeatedly been impressed by Erin’s keen intelligence, her leadership skills, her ability to consider both the big picture and the finer details of issues and her ability to build effective collaborations and partnerships with diverse populations.
Erin and I worked first as co-workers as she led several projects for the Tillamook County Women’s Resource Center (now Tides of Change) and later as community partners each representing non-profits whose missions overlapped. There are a multitude of skills and characteristics that I admire about Erin and the tremendous contribution she had made to improve the lives of Tillamook County residents as she manages the broad range of programs operated by Community Action Resources and her many additional community involvements. I greatly admire Erin’s
ongoing commitment to listen to all voices and to stand for what is best for the community at large. Erin is a visionary and a creative problem solver and I believe she will be a strong County Commissioner as she brings her many strengths to that position. I remember calling professional references when hoping to hire Erin for a position at TCWRC. All references were effusive in their appreciation for Erin and her work. One reference said to me that “hiring Erin will be a decision you will never regret” and truer words have rarely been spoken. I believe the same holds true as we consider who we will vote for to become

fter hurricane-force winds isolated our region for over a week 12 years ago, we had no organized community mechanism to respond. From that incident, the Emergency Volunteer Corps of Nehalem Bay was formed. Fast forward to today — EVCNB has grown to become a critical component of preparedness in our community. Our mission to “Promote A Culture of Preparedness” has never been more important than it is right now. The biggest surprise is that the worst case we initially imagined was a Cascadia Subduction Zone major[h1] earthquake and tsunami. Little did we realize that we would first be faced with two tornados and a pandemic. When we talk about all hazards, we really mean all hazards! Not surprisingly, our EVCNB volunteers have stepped up in the COVID-19 emergency. The Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) has been activated to do contact tracing for Tillamook County Health Department, and Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) members are on standby for Tillamook County our next County Commissioner, a vote for Erin Skaar will be one we will never regret.

McCall the right choice Let me tell you why I am supporting David McCall for Tillamook County Commissioner. As the Solid Waste Manager for Tillamook County and a Bay City Councilor, David has demonstrated his ability to think outside of the box to find new and creative ways to solve problems.

Emergency Management. As part of the Neighborhood Gathering Site strategy, Prepare Your Neighborhood (PYN) clusters have been accumulating supplies, including N95 masks, hand sanitizer, and Clorox wipes for some time. With the shortage of personal protection equipment at key places in the county, a portion of these supplies have now been distributed to [h2] those in urgent need, including first responders, [h3]local grocery store employees, food bank volunteers, and post office personnel. These dedicated individuals are continuing to work in conditions in which they are often unable to be six feet apart from [h4]the public. A big thank you goes out to them, and to the PYN clusters for putting others first and giving back! Residents in many of our neighborhoods are also sup-
porting each other by making combined grocery runs, keeping in contact through social media and checking on their neighbors -- virtually of course. Thanks to all our volunteers, we show we have a strong community and we will get through this crisis together. At the same time, we are learning a lot. The current pandemic situation should be considered a great wake-up call. Imagine if we did have an earthquake and tsunami. Would you be ready for 30 days (or more) of isolation with no local grocery stores available? What if there was no water, no sewers, no electricity, no roads? While we are all abiding by the Governor Brown’s “Stay Home, Save Lives,” you might want to take time to plan for the additional supplies and actions that would help you prepare for that worst-case possibility. Stay safe, stay home, and remember — small acts of kindness go a long way when we are all under significant stress.

TALES FROM THE LIBRARY Bill Landau Extension Librarian
W
ith every passing day of the COVID-19 closure, the staff of the library is missing our patrons more and more. We can’t wait to get back to the point where we can get those books and other library materials into your hands. Many of the librarians are working from home to order all the hot titles you have been waiting for, so when we finally do open, our dear readers are going to feel
like kids in a candy store! In the meantime, we want you to be aware of one of the online services we offer 24 hours per day and seven days a week. It is called Kanopy and it allows you to check out and watch classic films right from your computer, phone or smart TV! Similar to Netflix, but full of classic cinema, indie films, and documentaries, all for free with your library card. We have increased the checkout limit to 20 films per month, and you keep each one for a total of 72 hours. Download
the app from your app store to get started, or go to the Kanopy website (www.kanopy. com) to sign up and watch from your computer. Another amazing database is one you can access from our website (www.tillabook.org) called CREDO Reference. To some people, the word “encyclopedia” might bring
Page A5
back horrible memories of musty-smelling, outdated books that provided farfrom-stimulating reading, but that’s not the case with CREDO. In fact, CREDO is not one encyclopedia but actually an assemblage of 974 of the world’s best, most respected and up-to-date resources on the planet! We
dare you to try to find a topic that is not represented in this resource. This product can be especially valuable right now when schools are closed but homework is still a way of life. Now let’s talk about gardening. Did you know that the Tillamook County Library gave out a record 62,000 seed packets this year before we closed? We have been wondering how your garden is growing. If you have photos of any plantings you are especially proud of, please send them to me
at blandau@co.tillamook. or.us and we might be able to feature your photo in a future newsletter or social media post. Join me again next week for even more ideas of how you can use the online resources on the Tillamook County Library’s website. In the meantime, keep washing your hands! Editor’s note: Bill Landau is the Extension Librarian at the Tillamook County Library.
GUEST COLUMN
COVID 19: Navigating uncharted waters in assisted living ust as all of our lives have been drastically changed as self-isolation orders tighten the grip of our everyday movement, so too have the lives changed for those with underlying health conditions that reside in Assisted Living. One might think it would not affect our Residents too much in terms of their day-today lives, as they may appear to the outside world to already be self-isolated. However, Assisted Living is not like a hospital, and residents in Assisted Living are given a LOT of freedom and choice. As a matter of fact, PreCOVID19 they could come and go as they pleased, we would take them to do interesting things, or family would come pick them up and take them out for an adventure. With self- isolation in effect for everyone those road trips have come to an abrupt dead end. All activities that involved socialization were immediately cancelled in March, in order to quickly retool our activities calendar to allow for self-distancing and selfisolation. About two weeks in to the new regime, Sandy Somarakis, Activity Director for
Kilchis House approached me about taking the residents out for a scenic drive. My first thought was that’s a “No Go”! “I don’t think that’s such a good idea Sandy,” I responded. She quickly explained, “I’m only going to take two to three Residents at a time while socially distanced at six feet apart inside the bus. I would like to take them to Bar View Jetty to look at the waves as they sit safely inside the bus. Please! I promise we are not stopping anywhere. They are begging me to get them out of here. They are just so bored.” Of course it was approved, and of course they went. While they were parked watching a boat bouncing is the surf just beyond the rocks of the jetty, they were surprised to see another bus pull in and park next to them. It was the Griffin House bus! Both Activity Directors looked at each other with a quivering smile, quickly rolled down their windows, as the Residents seated in either bus waved to each other from a safe social distance. Shortly after that all outside activities, whether socially distanced or otherwise, were cancelled for an indefinite period of time. I’m glad the Residents got to take one last look the Pacific Ocean before all the “fun” got cancelled. Residents are only leaving
the building now for essential medical appointments and that is a rare occurrence, as most Primary Care Physicians are now offering Tele-Health. Self-distancing is just one of the major challenges faced by the Life Enrichment Department. Another big one has been the “Only Essential Visitors” regulation mandated by the Department of Human Services. Many Resident family members are actively involved in Residents lives, including frequent visitations. This separation has left both family members and Residents sad and lonely. I asked Judie Mickelsen, Activities Director for Nehalem Bay House, how they were weathering the COVID 19 storm. She told me, “We are doing a lot of apartmentto-apartment one-on-one craft projects. When we play bingo now, Residents sit at separate tables six feet apart. It’s definitely different, but the Residents don’t seem to mind too much.” “What are we doing to help residents stay in contact with their loved ones?” I went on to ask. “We have SKYPE set-up so that Residents, family, and friends can visit virtually.” Kilchis House is utilizing the ZOOM platform for their socialization with family and friends with great success.
Residents are often “brought to tears of joy” when they see their family’s familiar face on the screen. Family and friends are encouraged to call ahead to set up a time for a virtual visit. Window visits outside of the Residents apartments should also be scheduled in advance, and are also strongly encouraged. CDC, OHA, & DHS are sending us updates and changes to regulations daily, sometimes hourly. It’s a lot to comprehend and feels like we are steering a ship on a very uncertain sea. When the CDC recommended that everyone wear masks, we reached out to the Tillamook County Face Mask Project on Facebook as well as other interested members of the community who had reached out to us about our need for masks. I am pleased to say that we are all wearing cloth masks, and have a policy and procedure in place for the use/ cleaning of the masks. When a staff member checks in for work they are thoroughly screened, have their temperature taken, and assigned a cloth mask for their shift. At the end of the shift the used masks are placed in a designated receptacle for washing by the NOC shift for the next day’s use. We will need more cloth masks before this over, as
while the cloth masks can be washed and reused as opposed to a one-time-use procedural mask, they will only hold up so long with the necessary frequency of washings. The N95 masks we have received from the Tillamook County Health Department are being held in case of a positive. Securing N95’s has been a challenge for everyone in the healthcare industry, Assisted Living is no exception. We have reached out to Project N95, a resource funded by the CDC and FDA, to obtain more N95 masks. Masks we hope we will never have to use. Our focus has been on prevention. Staff has been disinfecting “High Touch” hard surface areas such as; door knobs, handrails, and light switches twice per shift for weeks now. In addition, beginning this week we have hired a professional cleaning company to come in weekly to really scour the building with disinfectant on top of

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR farmers and the government to do so. It was a request that millions of Americans immediately proceeded to answer in a positive way and the home garden became a normal part of life. I Today, most if not all of the food that is put on the table is purchased from the store. With the current situation and the loss of jobs and prices increasing, maybe it’s time to consider going back to providing for yourselves the foods that you are capable of growing. You can start many vegetables from seed and save money or buy the started plants to grow tomatoes, carrots, lettuce, radishes, potatoes, beans, peas etc. You will be enjoying fresh, non sprayed, healthy vegetables at your meals. Another fringe benefit is that you will be doing something productive and mentally satisfying by getting out in the garden area where you will exercise, be out in the sun (we hope) and breath in the clean fresh air. You can get all the information you need to start a garden on the internet, or from many of the books that are available. Most vegetable seeds go directly into the ground, but here is how I start my tomato seeds. Cut a piece of paper towel 2 inches square and fold it in half. Unfold the paper and place a single tomato seed in the center and close over. Wet seed and paper thoroughly and put in plastic baggie. Repeat for as many seeds as you want to start, then press all air out of baggie and seal. Place sealed baggie in a warm area (I put mine on top of the water heater). Check every day after two days. When you see the new growth (a little tail), take the piece if paper out (with seed inside) and plant about ½ inch deep in a growing pot and place in a warm, sunny area and watch
it sprout. As it gets larger, you will need to acclimate it to the outdoors by periodically putting it outdoors for as hour or two a number of times daily until it can be outdoors constantly. When it has adjusted to the outdoors, plant it in the ground and water as necessary or plant in a very large pot. Over a period of time, blossoms will appear and they will become the tomatoes for your dining table. If you have young children, let them start a seed and take care of the plant, you will be opening their eyes to the miracle of life in a little seed. Plant your own garden, the rewards are priceless.

Celebrating the 50th Anniversary of Earth Day
our already vigorous cleaning efforts. We have also been hiring some additional part-time temporary workers. Several of the hires are those who have been temporarily displaced in the food service, lodging, and retail industries in order to help us with screening, cleaning, and the delivery of room trays. I feel we have been very proactive in our approach; screening visitors, taking staff temperatures, and wearing masks before it was ever required. All these efforts seem to be working, as both staff and Residents are healthy! No one is exhibiting any flu-like symptoms at the time of this writing, and for that we are so very thankful. As a small non-profit, we are managing to stay afloat as we navigate the rules and regulations of self-distancing and self-isolation, all the while working to meet resident and staff needs during these times of troubled waters.
Dear Editor, With the 50th anniversary of Earth Day upon us on April 22nd, we are already reducing our carbon footprint during the pandemic by severely curtailing travel. But we can do so much more by cutting our
consumption of animal meat and milk products. Yes, that. A recent article in the respected journal Nature argues that animal agriculture is a major driver of climate change, air and water pollution, depletion of soil and water resources, and destruction of wildlife habitats. Oxford University’s prestigious Food Climate Research Network reports that solving the global warming catastrophe requires a massive shift to plant-based eating. In an environmentally sustainable world, we must replace meat and dairy products with vegetables, fruits, and grains, just as we replace fossil fuels with wind, solar, and other renewable energy sources. Each of us has a unique opportunity to heal our planet by transitioning to plant-based eating. We can begin with a 1-minute NY Times food test at https://www.nytimes. com/interactive/2019/04/30/ climate/your-diet-quiz-globalwarming.html. Then, let’s celebrate the 50th anniversary of Earth Day at our supermarket. The internet offers ample advice and recipes.

OBITUARIES
R
ita Marie Smith was born August 2, 1937 in Pendleton, Oregon to Cecil and Esther (Bolin) Gamble and passed away after a lengthy illness on April 11, 2020 in Canby, Oregon at the age of 82. Rita was a 1955 graduate of Sandy High School. Rita grew up in Oregon and as an adult lived in Anchorage, Sandy, Portland, Molalla and Tillamook although Tillamook was her home since 1972. She worked at the Tillamook Regional Medical Center as the Housekeeping Supervisor for 10 years and later for the Tillamook County Habitat for Humanity working as the Office Clerk for 10 years.
Rita Marie Smith Aug. 2, 1937 - April 11, 2020
During her retirement years she was a resident at Sheridan Square on 3rdStreet where she made many friends. Many knew her from her Tillamook card dealing days at The Barn and the Dutch Mill. Rita was known for her sense of humor and fun and being with people. Some might say she was a little ornery based on the “pranks” she did or encouraged, most of

which she would never admit to. She developed close relationships with people including her care team helpers. Her last roommate, Janet, was the perfect match for her as she and her family became a part of her extended family. She was “Mom” to many. Purple was her color; any shade would work. Her hobbies included painting, including LOTS of ladybug rocks, working puzzles, knitting and crocheting and she willingly kept watch of OSU Beavers

games and the Portland Trailblazers because of the steady encouragement we gave her. She especially enjoyed rides out to the base to see if she could see the elk. She knew all their hiding places. She loved to take a ride to Oceanside or Rockaway to find the seagulls and enjoyed feeding them with her grandchildren. Rita was married to Gilbert Oldenkamp for 21 years and they had five sons all who survive her; Mark Oldenkamp (Laura) of Canby, OR, Matthew Oldenkamp (Rose) of Asotin, WA, Timothy Oldenkamp (Cheryl) of Silverdale, WA, David Oldenkamp (Jeanne) of Port Angeles, WA and Daniel Oldenkamp of McMinnville, OR. She maintained a special relationship with Shelly Winsby even after Tim and she divorced. She was blessed with seven grandchildren and several great grandchildren plus many more that she “adopted”. She married Donald Smith in Tillamook in 1979 and though they divorced in 1985, they remained close friends until his death. She had a special relationship with Lee Maroney of Idaho during the last years of her life. Her brother Thomas Gamble (Pat) of Fort Wayne, IN, who was very supportive, and brother Mike Darling of Portland, OR both survive her. Rita was preceded in death by her sister Sue Darling Lyons and grandson Jeffrey Oldenkamp. A celebration of life for family will be held at a later date. Remembrances in her name can be made to Tillamook County Habitat for Humanity or Vital Life Foundation. This Foundation is connected to the Marquis care facilities which cared for her the past 18 months and which graciously sponsored her last visit with family and friends in Tillamook in early February. https://www.tillamookhabitat.org/donations/ https://www.vitallifefoundation.org/.

A conservative for McCall Ninety-five percent of my votes in the last 50+ years have been cast for the most qualified conservative candidate. This election, for County Commissioner, I am casting my vote for Dave McCall, because I feel he is the most qualified candidate, regardless of political affiliation. As a member of the County’s Solid Waste Advisory Committee, I became acquainted with Dave when he took over the management of the Solid Waste department 7 years ago. We have been friends and community associates since. We have debated many political issues over the years. Much of the time we end up agreeing to disagree, but he has been respectful of my views. He listens attentively and is open to be influenced by logical, common-sense arguments. As leader of the Solid Waste dept., Dave has demonstrated his skills at managing an organization with a multi-million dollar budget. In previous jobs he has experience managing divisions or companies with larger budgets and more then 100 employees. No other candidate has this kind of experience? Two to three times a month over the last 7 years, Dave has had to make presentations to the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) at their workshops and weekly meetings. This makes him familiar with the inner workings of the BOCC. Dave has knowledge of the County’s budget process. He has had to present his case to the BOCC for the adoption of Solid Waste’s multi-million dollar budget request that he puts together each year. He’ll truly hit the ground running. David’s environmental accomplishments speak for themselves. His knowledge and understanding of environmental issues are gleaned from years of experience in
Credit as a supervisor. They had a long and wonderful marriage filled with travels to exotic ports of call while running their Christmas tree farm. Their true contentment came when they eventually bought a home in Rockaway Beach. Here they fished extensively, she made many quilts with her sister, and even rehabbed three houses. To see Carole with her tool belt on was quite the sight, but she certainly knew how to hammer and paint. After Bill passed away Carole moved full time to the beach, and some time later her daughter and granddaughter moved in with her. Carole was active at the Hope Chest, and delighted in her coworkers. She will be missed by family and friends. She leaves 3 daughters, Justin, Susan, and Courtney and one granddaughter, Carter; her sister, Gail Kessinger (Steve Shaw), and her brother, Darrell (Chip) Kessinger and many nieces and nephews and friends. Please feel free to make donations to a charity of your choice.
environmentally related managerial positions — both here in Tillamook, and previously in the private sector. I have never known Dave to blindly support or enact environmental policies that don’t consider potential unintended consequences, or the likelihood of diminishing returns for efforts put forth. He has received numerous awards for his efforts. Common sense and a great sense of humor are also reasons I support Dave. Tom Jayred Tillamook
Why I support Erin Skaar As a retired Tillamook County Commissioner and life-long resident, I have always cared deeply about our county. It was very comforting for me to have Mary Faith Bell take my place on the County Commission. Now we have another wonderful opportunity. I knew some time ago that my friend and fellow Commissioner Bill Baertlein was also considering retirement. Knowing this, I approached Erin Skaar several times to encourage her to run for Bill’s position when he retired. I wasn’t alone. There were people all across our wonderful county who also wanted her to run because they recognized her talents. However, we had to wait. Erin is the Executive Director of Community Action Resource Enterprises (CARE). She created a collaboration to bring funding into Tillamook County for an affordable housing complex, to be built this year. She couldn’t commit to running for Bill’s seat until this task was completed. It’s this dedication to her work and our county that exemplifies her values. Anybody who has worked with her will tell you that she is a true leader; is personable and very intelligent. I can’t tell you how pleased I am to have her on the ballot. Please join me in voting for Erin Skaar. Tim Josi Retired Tillamook County Commissioner.”

Wyden hosts first online Oregon Town Hall Becky, from Springfield, had a question about the hold up on getting COVID-19 tests out. She works in health care and is aware of this issue. She feels we should not be concerned about revealing the source of the potential contamination. She thinks people need to know who they are in contact with that could possibly contaminate them. Wyden said people have been stressing the question of testing and that President Donald Trump at one time said we have all the tests we need. “What I’m working for is quality testing, because we’ve battled a lot of false negatives and also quick responses,”

U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden held an online Oregon Town Hall on Friday, April 17, hosted by Town Hall Project. Wyden has held 970 town halls statewide in fulfillment of his pledge to hold at least one town hall each year in each of Oregon’s 36 counties. This was his first virtual town hall. Wyden said this was Oregon’s first statewide virtual meeting and wanted to know how people are doing amid COVID-19 and wanted input from the people for the next COVID-19 package, which is currently being worked on.

Additionally, “Local business generates 70 percent more local economic activity per square foot than big box retailers.” According to an Andersonville Study of Retail Economics. Not only does small business circulate more money throughout their communities, ultimately benefiting us all. Small Businesses contribute to their community in the form of employment. Small Business owners employ themselves and eventually create jobs for others as well, all of who’s taxes and income directly benefit their local economy. “Since 1990, big businesses eliminated 4 million jobs, while small businesses added 8 million jobs.” says a report from the Small Business Administration. As more diverse businesses are able to thrive in a community,

more trades become viable employment opportunities. Creating additional employment prospects for all economic and education level. Small businesses are owned by community members and as such are far more generous and active with local charities and fund raising efforts than their Big Box competition. When was the last time you saw a major corporation’s donation on the auction table at a local fundraising effort? Local owners volunteer their time and talents to efforts within their area. They showcase and support the businesses and people around them, furthering everyone’s opportunities. As each small business is able to be successful, the opportunity for a greater variety of quality options within their area increases. As it gets easier to find goods locally, it also becomes easier to eliminate the need to spend money outside of your own community. The rich diversity of businesses also encourages sustainable growth and tourism opportunities, providing untold economic benefit for current and future generations. All of this amounting to, small businesses positively impact your community far more than online and big box, and now more

Wyden said. “That to me is the bottom line.” Wyden said the Trump administration has been zigzagging in a counterproductive way when it comes to testing. Testing needs to start with health care workers, retail workers and people who are on the frontlines. Contact tracing is important. Without quality testing, it is hard to have a national agenda to get back to normal lives. Allison, from Portland, a
small business owner, brought up the $50 billion childcare investment and asked Wyden how he will make sure direct relief can be accessed by all. She added that there is a huge blockade or who has technological access. Wyden said the Paycheck Protection Plan is frustrating and delay in the Economic Injury program is unacceptable.

than ever, the less money that leaves our area, the better off we all are. OK, so what does “Shop Small First” mean exactly? It means try to find it locally from a small business first. What better time than now to take the time to explore the vast array of options our friends and neighbors provide? I guarantee you will discover a local resource you didn’t know was available and help us all at the same time. If the feeling of positively impacting those nearest you isn’t motivation enough, economics tells us, it’s actually self serving to your own sustainability and potential for economic success as well. What are the easiest ways to reach, support, and shop at local businesses? In this technology age we are fortunate in how easy it is to access information. Even if a business didn’t have a social media or web presence prior to now, they are integrating these options currently. A Google search of the item, service or business name and your location will usually provide multiple options. Facebook and Instagram are widely used by small businesses. Facebook has a sales platform so stores can create their own “E Commerce Web Site” directly on

their pages. Restaurants are posting their menus, as well as pick up and delivery options, Retail stores have online shopping, delivery, pick up, personal and social distance shopping opportunities. Most businesses are currently being completely owner, family, or skeleton crew run, and they are happy to accommodate your needs, schedule and a way to provide their goods to you safely. When you think of something you need or want, or maybe a gift for someone, even yourself, search for a local option first. Many downtown businesses have regular pick up and safe distance shopping options, and window shopping will give you a better idea of your options as well. Many have growing or existing websites, you can also call or message the businesses and let them give you a personal shopping experience. They can send you photos, or even video of their offerings, or schedule a time for private safe shopping. Call or message your favorite restaurant and ask them what pick up and to go options they have for you. Many restaurants and shops are offering local delivery options, so you can also support from home. Another great way to support local businesses is by buying gift cards,

Wyden said he is trying to get additional funding for a child taking care of an older parent. He said his office would connect with her to find her help. Geri, from Grants Pass, said she appreciated Wyden’s proposal of nationwide mailed ballots. Wyden said he introduced the first vote by mail in 2002. It was an academic issue. Most poll workers are over the age of 60. He said if you have friends who have Republican senators, ask them to reach out to those senators, telling them this is a public safety issue.
this gives them much needed capital now, without depleting their current stock and profit margin, allowing them to cover things like payroll and monthly bills. Challenge yourself to support at least three small local businesses a week in some way. Literally every dollar counts, especially at this crucial time, so even something small can have a large impact. When you find a permanent local source for something, buy something from a new to you local business, or receive great customer service, share your experiences on social media and tag the business. The more awareness we all gain of these local resources the easier it is to support them. Personally I have been really excited to find permanent local food sources that are easy to integrate into our buying habits going forward. Personal favorite’s are Bennett’s Milk delivery, and Brickyard Farms CSA baskets, not to mention Food Roots ever expanding options.

T
illamook County officials revealed that a $300,000 ransom was paid to regain data access after a cyberattack. The ransom amount was disclosed during the Tillamook County Board of Commissioners meeting Wednesday, March 11. Commissioner Bill Baertlein, reading from a prepared statement, said it could have taken 12-24
months and cost $1 million to unlock the county’s computer system if a ransom went unpaid. “The county’s rapid and aggressive response to the incident mitigated the compromise and contained the encryption to 17 of 55 servers and five of 280 county workstations,” Baertlein said. The attack was reportedly carried out by an international cybercriminal organization known to law enforcement both nationally and internationally. The prepared county

adding that new security measures were being implemented. “The county made every effort to avoid the payment of a ransom to the cyber attacker, including recovery through two independent backup solutions and hundreds of hours of retained and county resources; however, data critical to county operations could not be restored without paying the cyberattacker for decryption keys,” Baertlein said. “While the county maintained redundant backup solutions that would
have protected our data in the event of a natural disaster, the cyberattack resulted in encrypted backups,” Baertlein said. Commissioner Mary Faith Bell emphasized that the government was the victim of a crime, noting a new frontier of security hazards in the digital age.

ounty officials driveheld an emerProb Clem gency meeting Saturday,
March 14, to declare a local state of emergency due to the coronavirus outbreak. Most county offices will close to the public, operating by phone and email instead. Tillamook County Commissioner Bill Baertlein said the declaration was necessary due to the rapidly developing situation around COVID-19. Commissioners Mary Faith Bell and David Yamamoto agreed with the necessity. No COVID-19 cases have been confirmed in the county at this time. “Are we going to be infected,” Yamamoto said. “I can tell you pretty much yes, we will.” Votes for a resolution declaring the emergency and enacting a contingency plan passed unanimously.
The state of emergency will last until April 1, when it will be reevaluated. “This is a very fluid situation and things are changing rapidly,” Yamamoto said. Concerned about the impact of a possible COVID-19 spread in the area, Bell said with only a few intensive care beds, Tillamook County lacks the capacity to handle a serious outbreak. Access to the Tillamook County Courthouse will be screened. County department offices at the courthouse will serve the public by appointment. The Community Development office will close to the public but will serve people by phone and email. County Public Works will be closed to the public, though the solid waste transfer stations remain open. The north courthouse entrance will be closed. Those who need

I am sure they are social distancing, and they are not at the beach. Soon, when all is well in the world, we will welcome our guests with open arms. I have a bit of news about the Warehouse 10 Market
in Twin Rocks. They are going to be opening on May 8th. Not only will you get to enjoy their spring decor, but you will also get to enjoy a variety of food items such as soups, sauces, dinner starters, syrup, dressings and more. Mark this date on your calendar. I know it is on my list, with mask and gloves in tow. “Be nice to people. We’re all battling something.” That’s Rockaway Beach, “Sugar Coated.”

Great news for Bay City: the City Council approved an integrated RestaurantLodging Grant Proposal, as submitted by Councilor David
McCall. This project will use up to $10,000 Transient Lodging Tax (TLT) funds already collected to provide immediate support to Bay City restaurants through the purchase of gift certificates. The certificates will be distributed through events and through lodging operations in Bay City. The gift certificates will be valid during the off season to encourage visitors to return to Bay City during winter months when our lodging and restaurant facilities struggle to bring in guests. This is an example of how funds collected from tourists staying here can provide immediate help during this difficult time. The City Council also established a working group to look at various methods of supporting other local businesses during this crisis and beyond. The council is working hard to ensure that local family owned businesses stay afloat. Thank you David McCall and the City Council. Karen Allenbrand was not the only friend I called. Kathy Pollock has been using her time at home baking. Her many friends and neighbors have been the recipients of her baked goodies, all of which are made from scratch. We talked about old recipes that our mothers and grandmothers used to make. Afterward I decided to look
for my mother’s cookbook. It was buried under a stack of cookbooks, two of which were “Dinner in Fifteen Minutes” and “Fast Dinners Out of a Can”. I finally found one of my mother’s cookbooks. It’s called “Recipes for Today” and was printed in 1943 during World War Two when they were rationing gasoline, sugar, flour and meat (but no mention of toilet paper). The most interesting of the recipes was for kidney stew with cereal dumplings. It begins with “Wash the kidneys thoroughly, Split in half, Remove fat and tubes, Soak in cold, salted water, If kidneys are old. cover with cold water and bring to a slow boil”. So I decided to make a fast dinner out of a can. We may all be tucked away safely in our homes. But we are still connected by our friendships and our support for one another. It shows in our City Council’s concerns for our businesses, the Methodist Church making masks for the community, the Bay City Art Center creating new programs and events, the Karen Allenbrands making friendship calls, the Kathy Pollocks baking for their neighbors. Yes, Bay City, we are connected. \ Thank you and I’ll see you next week at the Fencepost. P.S. Thank you Kimmel’s for my Spic and Span.

Pacific Christian School celebrates Orella Chadwick The staff and students of Pacific Christian School (PCS) would like to take this time to honor Orella Chadwick as she celebrates 101 years of age Saturday, April 25, 2020. With the coronavirus pandemic isolating everyone, PCS is unable to have the Open House celebration planned at the school, so we are going to celebrate Orella through the Headlight Herald newspaper. We are encouraging readers to send a birthday card to Orella to wish her happy birthday. We are hoping for 101 cards. The life and times of (Carrie) Orella Holloway Chadwick has been like a rainbow of many colorful layers and much joy. An avid genealogist, she has spent many decades of her time as an Eastern Oregon and Tillamook County Pioneer. Variety could be called the spice of her life. Orella was born April 25, 1919 in Cedar Hills, New Mexico to Levi and Dena Holloway at the family farm house. The town of Cedar Hills had a grocery store, post office, gas station, and later one telephone at the store. At the farm house there was no electricity, radio, newspaper, or TV. Washing was done on washboards. The family baked their own bread, grew a garden, and sewed their own clothes. Orella and family lived on a farm with cows, hogs, chickens, and turkeys. They raised alfalfa, fruit, and berries. She and her brothers would go fishing with a willow stick she cut, some twine, and a straight pin. She would climb trees, hike the mountains, read, and catch frogs
for eating fried frog legs. During the depression her family did not go hungry, because they grew their food and raised their own livestock. As kids they iPhone image of Orella Chadwick by were used to Tilda Chadwick Jones (2020) not having money unless they earned it by picking extra food from the family crops. They were paid $.05 cents for a ten pound bucket of berries or fruit. At that time gas was 8 cents a gallon! In 1934 when Orella was 15 years old, the family moved to Imbler, Oregon where house rent was $5/month and electricity $1/month for one light bulb hanging from the ceiling in the center of the main room. The toilet and water were outdoors. God puts Orella in the right places at the right time to make a difference in the lives of so many. Jennifer Stricker and Janelle Hanks at PCS have been working with students in a number of the old ways, such as practicing square dancing, since Orella and husband
Virgil were great fans. The children have also been playing games that were popular in the 19201930 time period, including “Kick the Can,” “Mother May I?,” “Paper Dolls,” and “Marbles.” Orella and husband Virgil sold and closed their LaGrande, Oregon businesses in 1952 and moved to Tillamook to farm where Orella began teaching grade school in Rockaway Beach. One of her special activities was a field trip to the Oregon Caves. Many of the students had not been out of Tillamook County, did not know about the county library, and had not written, mailed, or received a letter, all of which they did with teacher Orella. After teaching in Rockaway Beach, Orella taught 3rd and 4th grades in Tillamook at Maple Leaf School. She and the school’s only other teacher started innovatively teaching students about pioneering times. This included square dancing at recess and May Pole dancing. The 3rd and 4th grade square dancers performed on KOIN TV’s “Amateur Hour” in Portland. The children and parents were equally excited, especially those who had never been to Portland.

One year at Maple Leaf School (now Latimer Quilt Center) Oregon’s 100th birthday was celebrated by making old-fashioned long dresses to wear to school for the February 14, 1959 centennial. In her home sewed pioneer dress, Orella rode her youngest daughter’s horse “Blaze” to school. On Grandfather’s day, the grandfathers shared their childhood memories. Orella loved teaching, especially 7th graders at the Junior High School where she taught her last 13 years.
Through the years 4 children were born and raised by Orella and Virgil—Gary, Tilda, Diana, and Virgie. Some of the rainbow layers in Orella’s life, outside of teaching and family, included active membership and inspiration at the Methodist Church, Campfire Girls, Toastmistress, Farm Bureau, Chamber of Commerce, June Dairy Parade, and the local Democratic Party. Through these organizations she was able to travel nationwide making lifelong friends. She won many well deserved awards and recognitions, such as the Chamber of Commerce Citizen of the Year. To list her rainbow layers as a person, it would include wife, mother, grandma, business owner, teacher, church Sunday School teacher and member, Campfire Girls and Camp Makuala leader, politician, author, genealogist, community leader, Farm Bureau activist, equestrian, pioneer, and trusted friend. The 101 year history of Orella would take many pages of a very enjoyable read. This is just the beginning exploration of Orella’s many colorful rainbow layers. Blessings to you centenarian Orella. You are the greatest of human beings.

Tillamook County achieves top 10 health ranking status changing people’s lives for the better. County Commissioner Bill Baertlein has been instrumental in many of these efforts, demonstrating true leadership. When asked about the County Health Rankings report, Commissioner Baertlein said, “I’m really pleased with everything that has happened. It has really exceeded all my expectations and I think this report will add fuel to existing efforts. I’m excited to see where we go from here.” Areas where we continue to improve include people’s perceptions of their personal health and well-being, smoking rates have gone down, and we have a lot of access to places to be physically active, especially outdoors. Health issues needing improvement include obesity rates and sedentary behavior, as well as people not getting enough sleep. All these factors influence risk for chronic disease. Other areas we hope to see improvements include flu vaccination rates, number of children in poverty, college attainment, teen birth rates, and premature deaths, including those that are drug or alcohol related, as well as suicides. As positive as our trajectory

The Health Rankings make it clear that good health is influenced by many factors beyond medical care such as access to physical activity and healthy foods, factors that Tillamook County partners can do something about. All counties can take action to improve their health, no matter where they rank. It’s not a race to the top. It is about making steady progress toward building communities where people feel connected and supported to live healthier lives. The Health Rankings report is well worth celebrating. There are many incredible actions taken by leaders and organizations in Tillamook County in the past five years that contributed to this positive trend, and we congratulate all our community members for this success. It is also worth noting that the “Year of Wellness” was launched in 2016 and continues to build momentum as Tillamook County Wellness into 2020 and beyond. More than 46 community partner organizations, and nearly 100 individuals, have made a commitment to work collectively to reduce risk for type 2 diabetes. This collective action is changing our community and it is

For the past decade, the County Health Rankings have taken the pulse of the nation, showing us how where we live matters to our health. Tillamook County Public Health is pleased to report that our county has seen an intriguing trend, moving from an overall ranking of 26th, out of a total of 34 Oregon counties included in 2016, to an impressive 10th place ranking out of 35 Oregon counties included in 2020. According to Marlene Putman, Public Health Administrator, “Health indicator data is just one measure we use to drive investments to improve community health and well-being. This trend shows that the hard work and collaboration of our community partners is moving us in a positive direction.” This report compares the health of counties within states. We know that not everyone has the same opportunities to be healthy where they live. Good health allows people to fulfill their potential and thrive. Looking at these measures can help a community better understand what systems are supporting health and well-being and where there might be room for improvement.

Los fondos de subvenciones del Bloque de Desarrollo Comunitario vienen para el Departamento de Vivienda y Desarrollo Urbano de los Estados Unidos. Las subvenciones pueden utilizarse para instalaciones públicas y mejoramiento de vivienda principalmente para personas con ingresos bajos y moderados. Aproximadamente $12 millones serán otorgados a las ciudades y condados no metropolitanos de Oregón en 2020. La subvención máxima que una ciudad o condado puede recibir es de $2.5 millones.

El proyecto también rehabilitará la carcasa del pozo, reemplazará la bomba y reconstruirá la casa del pozo. La carcasa del pozo se instaló por primera vez en 1964. Si los fondos del CDBG exceden el trabajo de Well #2, entonces las tuberías antiguas de distribución de agua en los límites de la ciudad que han excedido su esperanza de vida, serán reemplazadas por los fondos que sobran.

NING. Commonly known as: 6790 UNION AVENUE, BAY CITY, OR 97107 The undersigned hereby certifies that based upon business records there are no known written assignments of the trust deed by the trustee or by the beneficiary, except as recorded in the records of the county or counties in which the above described real property is situated. Further, no action has been instituted to recover the debt, or any part thereof, now remaining secured by the trust deed, or, if such action has been instituted, such action has been dismissed except as permitted by ORS 86.752(7). Both the beneficiary and the trustee have elected to sell the said real property to satisfy the obligations secured by said trust deed and notice has been recorded pursuant to Section 86.752(3) of Oregon Revised Statutes. There is a default by grantor or other person owing an obligation, performance of which is secured by the trust deed, or by the successor in interest, with respect to provisions therein which authorize sale in the event of such provision. The default for which foreclosure is made is grantor’s failure to pay when due the following sum: TOTAL REQUIRED TO REINSTATE: $8,478.05 TOTAL REQUIRED TO PAYOFF: $181,253.18 Because of interest, late charges, and other charges that may vary from day-to-day, the amount due on the day you pay may be greater. It will be necessary for you to contact the Trustee before the time you tender reinstatement or the payoff amount so that you may be advised of the exact amount you will be required to pay. By reason of the default, the beneficiary has declared all sums owing on the obligation secured by the trust deed immediately due and payable, those sums being the following, towit: The installments of principal and interest which became due on 8/1/2019, and all subsequent installments of principal and interest through the date of this Notice, plus amounts that are due for late charges, delinquent property taxes, insurance premiums, advances made on senior liens, taxes and/or insurance, trustee’s fees, and any attorney fees and court costs arising from or associated with the beneficiaries efforts to protect and preserve its security, all of which must be paid as a condition of reinstatement, including all sums that shall accrue through reinstatement or pay-off. Nothing in this notice shall be construed as a waiver of any fees owing to the Beneficiary under the Deed of Trust pursuant to the terms of the loan documents. Whereof, notice hereby is given that QUALITY LOAN SERVICE CORPORATION OF WASHINGTON, the undersigned trustee will on 7/8/2020 at the hour of 9:00 AM, Standard of Time, as established by section 187.110, Oregon Revised Statues, At the Front Entrance to the Tillamook County Courthouse, located at 201 Laurel Avenue, Tillamook, Oregon 97141 County of TILLAMOOK, State of Oregon, sell at public auction to the highest bidder for cash

Notice is further given that any person named in Section 86.778 of Oregon Revised Statutes has the right to have the foreclosure proceeding dismissed and the trust deed reinstated by payment to the beneficiary of the entire amount then due (other than such portion of said principal as would not then be due had no default occurred), together with the costs, trustee’s and attorney’s fees and curing any other default complained of in the Notice of Default by tendering the performance required under the obligation or trust deed, at any time prior to five days before the date last set for sale. Other than as shown of record, neither the beneficiary nor the trustee has any actual notice of any person having or claiming to have any lien upon or interest in the real property hereinabove described subsequent to the interest of the trustee in the trust deed, or of any successor in interest to grantor or of any lessee or other person in possession of or occupying the property, except: Name and Last Known Address and Nature of Right, Lien or Interest MEGAN HERNANDEZ 6790 UNION AVENUE BAY CITY, OR 97107 Original Borrower For Sale Information Call: 800280-2832 or Login to: www.auction.com In construing this notice, the singular includes the plural, the word “grantor” includes any successor in interest to this grantor as well as any other person owing an obligation, the performance of which is secured by the trust deed, and the words “trustee” and “beneficiary” include their respective successors in interest, if any.
