Although daylight is becoming slim during the fall season, there’s been no shortage of nighttime events in Lincoln City. This week you can enjoy a ‘Dark and Stormy Night’ as author Dana Haynes reads mystery stories at the Driftwood Public Library Oct. 3, take a ‘Tour To Die For’ at the Taft Pioneer Cemetery Oct. 4-6 to see its residents come to life or you can catch some local tunes during the weekly concerts around town. See Community Calendar on Page A10 for more details on these events.
The Lincoln City Police Department investigated two separate incidents this past week involving potential social media threats to the Taft Schools. The second incident resulted in the arrest of a juvenile. During the afternoon on Sept. 22, the Lincoln County School District (LCSD) was made aware of a potential threat found on social media regarding the Taft Schools. The LCSD then alerted the Lincoln City Police Department and after investigating the post they determined that it was not a credible threat for any of the Lincoln City Schools. “The threat was determined to be referring to a school in a different part of See THREAT, Page A3

Man missing at sea, Coast Guard suspends search MAX KIRKENDALL newsguardeditor@countrymedia.net
The Coast Guard suspended its search for a man early Monday morning after more than 11 hours of combined searching in the vicinity of Whale Cove near Depoe Bay. Now his family is searching for closure. Hoang Tran, of Clackamas, Ore., was last seen Saturday, Sept. 28 by a bay tower watchstander at Coast Guard Station Yaquina Bay heading north at approximately 7 p.m. in the vicinity of Cape Foulweather. According to Tran’s family, he is no stranger to sailing his vessel, the Kiwanda, which was launched from Newport Saturday. After setting sail in the morning, Tran was due back home that night, according to his daughter Andrea Tran. “We have tried calling

State officials say stop vaping now CODY MANN headlightnews@countrymedia.net
State officials are urging people to immediately stop using all vaping products after Oregon Health Authority confirmed a second vaping-related death in Oregon. The death was the second among five previously reported illnesses, part of a nationwide outbreak of severe lung injuries reportedly linked to vaping and e-cigarette use. The first vaping fatality in the state was reported Sept. 3. In both fatal cases, cannabis vaping products were purchased from licensed retails stores. State health officials said the most recent death was an individual who was hospitalized with respiratory symptoms after vaping cannabis products. Oregon’s first victim died in July after battling lung failure for five weeks. That person reportedly vaped oils infused with THC that was purchased at two retail stores. Federal health officials say 13

State health officials said the most recent death was an individual who was hospitalized with respiratory symptoms after vaping cannabis products. people have died in 10 states from vaping-related illnesses. “If you vape, whether it’s can-
nabis, nicotine or other products, please quit,” state health officer Dr. Dean Sidelinger said. “These
are addictive substances, and we encourage people to take advantage of free resources to help them quit. If you haven’t started vaping, don’t start.” Democratic Gov. Kate Brown is asking state attorneys to explore legal options including a temporary ban on all vaping products. The governor called on Oregon Health Authority to recommend steps for protecting the public. Brown has also urged Oregonians to stop vaping. Vaping product sales in Oregon are plummeting according to cannabis industry research by New Frontier Data that showed a 62-percent downturn in September. Nationally, there have been more than 800 cases of vapingrelated illnesses reported in 46 states and one U.S. territory, primarily among youths and young adults. Those who have fallen ill in Oregon have been hospitalized after experiencing worsening symptoms, including shortness of breath, cough or chest pain.
A cause of the illnesses has not been determined, but all cases have reported e-cigarette use or vaping. Investigators and local public health authorities continue to urge clinicians to be on alert for signs of severe respiratory illness among patients and report any cases. State health officials are working with the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Food and Drug Administration to determine the cause of deaths and illnesses in Oregon and across the nation. Before the new illness reports, Oregon Health Authority was already concerned about the health risks of vaping products. A recent report by the agency details the health risks for the products including nicotine addiction, exposure to toxic chemicals known to cause cancer and increases in blood pressure. Individuals who have recently vaped and are having difficulty breathing should seek medical attention immediately.

City schools,� Graves said. “At that time, we made the decision to notify our families of the situation and that it was not a credible threat for our schools. We did this because we learned that several students/families saw the original threat online and we wanted to address concerns.� Then on Sept. 26, at about 9 p.m., Taft 7-12 administration notified the Lincoln City Police Department of more reported social media posts, which included indirect statements made by an unidentified individual concerning school safety. The Lincoln City Police school resource officer and detectives opened an investigation into this matter, subsequently identifying the juvenile responsible for creating the social media posts. This subject was taken into custody by Lincoln City Police and detectives at about 1:30 a.m. and Lincoln County School
District staff were notified of the arrest. The juvenile was charged with one count of Disorderly Conduct in the First Degree and later lodged at the Lincoln County Juvenile detention facility. Through the Lincoln City Police Department’s investigation, it was determined that the involved juvenile was not a student of Taft 7-12, and there is no longer a concern for safety. The LCSD would like to remind the community that they participate in the Oregon School Safety Tip Line called SafeOregon, which is a place for students to report safety concerns involving school such as threats, violence, bullying, drugs, self-harm or cyber-bullying.

Artist’s Studio Association crowns their Artist of the Month
The Artist’s Studio Association in Lincoln City recently announced that Ron Yasenchak was their Artist of the Month for October. Yasenchak picked up his paints and brushes in 2014 and is still painting up a storm in the Lincoln City area. His talents first surfaced while living in Columbus, Ohio, when he started painting in oils. After a move to Portland in 1970 and detours into carpentry and other art forms, he found the art of bonsai to be the perfect marriage of plants and art. So much so that his back-
yard nursery grew into a commercial operation, and for six years he served as treasurer of the International Bonsai Society. Bonsai literally took him across the country and around the world. In 2008 he and his wife Becky arrived in Gleneden Beach. Ron’s work tackles almost any subject, but with a focus on birds, fish and trees. After all he knows a lot about trees!

Broadband Internet is critical tool for rural communities ARNIE ROBLAN Oregon Senator
Oregon policymakers have worked hard to ensure that all areas of our state, including coastal and rural areas, have access to the latest and best infrastructure. Like roads, bridges and utilities, access to broadband internet is critical for rural communities. As new technologies like next-generation 5G wireless networks are realized, it will be more important than ever to ensure that all Oregonians have access to a reliable high-speed internet connection. High-speed internet can facilitate many opportuni-
ties for rural residents in areas like healthcare and education. Applications make it possible for patients to be monitored remotely by their physicians and consult specialists from different parts of the state or country, saving on the costs and logistical challenges of getting to far-away appointments. For students, having access to the internet at home is critical not only for completing homework assignments, but also for taking advantage of online learning opportunities. I recently had the chance to participate in a panel discussion at the Oregon Legislature’s Coastal Caucus Economic Summit in Florence. The panel, “Broad-

band Infrastructure on the Coast – Do Rural Communities Have Access to the Services they Need?” looked to a number of individuals in the technology and legislative arenas to not only provide an overview of the current state of broadband in rural Oregon, but also to look at the needs of rural communities. Most importantly, we discussed the best policy solutions to help meet those needs. One critical initiative is ensuring accurate broadband mapping by the Federal Communications Commission. Having access to the latest data about which communities have solid access to high-speed internet can help inform
state and federal policymakers, as well as Internet Service Providers, who can work together to make decisions about when and where to incentivize and make network investments. Continuing to encourage and incent broadband providers to bring their upgraded networks to the rural areas of our state is another

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: $232,263.92 TOTAL REQUIRED TO PAYOFF: $497,899.27 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, to- wit: The installments of principal and interest which became due on 5/1/2010, 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.

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

If any irregularities are discovered within 10 days of the date of this sale, the trustee will rescind the sale, return the buyer’s money and take further action as necessary. If the sale is set aside for any reason, including if the trustee is unable to convey title, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the monies paid to the Trustee. This shall be the Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy. The purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Trustor, the Trustee, the Beneficiary, the Beneficiary’s Agent, or the Beneficiary’s Attorney. Also, please be advised that pursuant to the terms stated on the Deed of Trust and Note, the beneficiary is allowed to conduct property inspections while there is a default. This shall serve as notice that the beneficiary shall be conducting property inspections on the referenced property. Without limiting the trustee’s disclaimer of representations or warranties, Oregon law requires the trustee to state in this notice that some residential property sold at a trustee’s sale may have been used in manufacturing methamphetamines, the chemical components of which are known to be toxic. Prospective purchasers of residential property should be aware of this potential danger before deciding to place a bid for this property at the trustee’s sale. NOTICE TO RESIDENTIAL TENANTS The property in which you are living is in foreclosure. A foreclosure sale is scheduled for October 23, 2019 at 9:00 AM. The date of this sale may be postponed. Unless the lender that is foreclosing on this property is paid before the sale date, the foreclosure will go through and someone new will own this property. After the sale, the new owner is required to provide you with contact information and notice that the sale took place. The following information applies to you only if
you are a bona fide tenant occupying and renting this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement. The information does not apply to you if you own this property or if you are not a bona fide residential tenant. If the foreclosure sale goes through, the new owner will have the right to require you to move out. Before the new owner can require you to move, the new owner must provide you with written notice that specifies the date by which you must move out. If you do not leave before the move-out date, the new owner can have the sheriff remove you from the property after a court hearing. You will receive notice of the court hearing. PROTECTION FROM EVICTION IF YOU ARE A BONA FIDE TENANT OCCUPYING AND RENTING THIS PROPERTY AS A RESIDENTIAL DWELLING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO CONTINUE LIVING TN THIS PROPERTY AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE FOR: • 60 DAYS FROM THE DATE YOU ARE GIVEN A WRITTEN TERMINATION NOTICE, IF YOU HAVE A FIXED TERM LEASE; OR • AT LEAST 30 DAYS FROM THE DATE YOU ARE GIVEN A WRITTEN TERMINATION NOTICE, IF YOU HAVE A MONTH-TOMONTH OR WEEK-TOWEEK RENTAL AGREEMENT. If the new owner wants to move in and use this property as a primary residence, the new owner can give you written notice and require you to move out after 30 days, even though you have a fixed term lease with more than 30 days left. You must be provid-
ed with at least 30 days’ written notice after the foreclosure sale before you can be required to move. A bona fide tenant is a residential tenant who is not the borrower (property owner) or a child, spouse or parent of the borrower, and whose rental agreement: • Is the result of an arm’s-length transaction; • Requires the payment of rent that is not substantially less than fair market rent for the property, unless the rent is reduced or subsidized due to a federal, state or local subsidy; and • Was entered into prior to the date of the foreclosure sale. ABOUT YOUR TENANCY BETWEEN NOW AND THE FORECLOSURE SALE: RENT YOU SHOULD CONTINUE TO PAY RENT TO YOUR LANDLORD UNTIL THE PROPERTY IS SOLD OR UNTIL A COURT TELLS YOU OTHERWISE. IF YOU DO NOT PAY RENT, YOU CAN BE EVICTED. BE SURE TO KEEP PROOF OF ANY PAYMENTS YOU MAKE. SECURITY DEPOSIT You may apply your security deposit and any rent you paid in advance against the current rent you owe your landlord as provided in ORS 90.367. To do this, you must notify your landlord in writing that you want to subtract the amount of your security deposit or prepaid rent from your rent payment. You may do this only for the rent you owe your current landlord. If you do this, you must do so before the foreclosure sale. The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale is not responsible to you for any deposit or prepaid rent you paid to your landlord. ABOUT YOUR
TENANCY AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE The new owner that buys this property at the foreclosure sale may be willing to allow you to stay as a tenant instead of requiring you to move out after 30 or 60 days. After the sale, you should receive a written notice informing you that the sale took place and giving you the new owner’s name and contact information. You should contact the new owner if you would like to stay. If the new owner accepts rent from you, signs a new residential rental agreement with you or does not notify you in writing within 30 days after the date of the foreclosure sale that you must move out, the new owner becomes your new landlord and must maintain the property. Otherwise: • You do not owe rent; • The new owner is not your landlord and is not responsible for maintaining the property on your behalf; and • You must move out by the date the new owner specifies in a notice to you. The new owner may offer to pay your moving expenses and any other costs or amounts you and the new owner agree on in exchange for your agreement to leave the premises in less than 30 or 60 days. You should speak with a lawyer to fully understand your rights before making any decisions regarding your tenancy. IT IS UNLAWFUL FOR ANY PERSON TO TRY TO FORCE YOU TO LEAVE YOUR DWELLING UNIT WITHOUT FIRST GIVING YOU WRITTEN NOTICE AND GOING TO COURT TO EVICT YOU. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS, YOU SHOULD CONSULT A
LAWYER. If you believe you need legal assistance, contact the Oregon State Bar and ask for the lawyer referral service. Contact information for the Oregon State Bar is included with this notice. If you do not have enough money to pay a lawyer and are otherwise eligible, you may be able to receive legal assistance for free.

Health Matters by Samaritan Health Services
Back surgery leads to vitality in retirement for local woman painful condition caused by wear and tear, Cleary is now enjoying retirement and is back to riding.
Cleary first had spinal fusion, a type of back surgery to fix problems with the bones in her spine, in 2012. After several years of relief, her lower back pain returned in 2018. Two factors complicated matters. First, Cleary’s previous surgeon had retired. Second, she wanted to avoid an adverse reaction to anesthesia, which she had following her first surgery. So, Cleary did what a lot of people do. She went online and read patient reviews. She liked what she saw about J. Christopher Noonan, MD, of Samaritan Neurosurgery in Corvallis.
Kathy Cleary has led a full and active life, working as a dental assistant, a receptionist and a housekeeper for the musician John Denver before opening Toujours Boutique in Newport, a store she ran for 21 years.
“You know, I’ll give him a try,” she said.
She also keeps and rides horses. That’s how she first injured her back when she was thrown off a horse.
“When you go in, it’s very scary,” Cleary recalled. “He was very reassuring.”
“I hit a fence,” Cleary recalled. “I think that started the process.” Arthritis and aging did the rest. But thanks to successful surgery to repair spinal stenosis, a
At her first appointment, Dr. Noonan listened attentively.
Cleary talked about her post-operative cognitive dysfunction symptoms and her problems with balance and speech after the last surgery. “We’ll figure this out,” Dr. Noonan assured Cleary.
He reviewed her medical records and referred her for neuropsychology testing. He also arranged for Cleary to meet with an anesthesiologist.
“He was very proactive in figuring this out,” Cleary said. “I was over-the-top impressed.” The surgery was a success. “Everything went swimmingly,” Cleary said. She was prepared to take up to two weeks off work. But she was back in just six days. At age 72, Cleary was looking to slow down. And with her recovery complete, the timing for retirement felt right. “It really was time to retire,” she said. So, she recently closed shop and moved to Phoenix. “Life is good,” Cleary reports from her new home in the desert sunshine. While she hopes she never has to have back surgery again, without hesitation she recommends Dr. Noonan and Samaritan Neurosurgery. “Besides his extreme talent as a surgeon, he listens to you,” Cleary said. “I really appreciate that.” Visit samhealth.org/KathyC to learn more about spinal stenosis and spine surgery.

Community update on new hospitals in Lincoln County Renovations moving along in Newport
Interior rooms in Samaritan Pacific Communities Hospital’s 1988 building are taking further shape this month as drywall is set. On the exterior, weather-barrier and window installation are complete, making the building ready for winter rains. As crews hang exterior siding and brick, hospital teams are planning for the transition to the fully renovated and retrofitted building,
which is expected to open in March and will house the laboratory, cardiopulmonary rehab, infusion, wound care and other departments.
Lincoln City hospital nearing completion Inside and outside the new Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital, it’s a beehive of activity as dozens of skilled tradespeople continue steady progress toward a mid-December finish. Skanska USA Building and Samaritan staff are working
together to track and complete countless details large and small — exterior and interior painting, electrical, plumbing and mechanical installation, tiling and fireplace masonry, inspections, signage, equipment — to ensure the hospital will open to the public in early February 2020.

Increase in controlled burns expected statewide this fall THE NEWS GUARD
Cool, rainy weather across much of the state has allowed the first controlled burns to be lit in parts of Oregon. New rules governing smoke may allow more of these burns than in the past. Oregon Department of Forestry officials believe increasing the amount of burning will help landowners reduce the public safety risk from the buildup of fuels in forests and improve forest health. Known as prescribed fires, these regulated burns are lit when weather conditions will minimize smoke getting into smoke-sensitive receptor areas (SSRAs) and Class I wilderness areas, such as Crater Lake National Park. Accord-
ing to ODF records, out of 2,964 units burned in 2018 only 18 – about half of one percent – resulted in smoke entering an SSRA. “The prescribed burns the public may see in coming weeks are done only when weather conditions are favorable for burning,” Nick Yonker, ODF Meteorology Manager said. “We look to burn on days where air movement will disperse the smoke so public health is protected.” New rules implemented this spring still require that burners not exceed federal air quality standards for particulate matter from smoke. But they no longer classify small amounts of smoke entering an SSRA as an intrusion. “The old standard used to be zero visible smoke in an SSRA,” Yonker said. “This made it difficult
to burn brush near populated areas, the very places where burning built-up woody fuels would improve public safety the most.” Yonker expects that burners will now be more confident about starting burns when conditions are reasonable rather than only when they are perfect. “If the weather cooperates, a conservative estimate is that we might get from 10 percent to 20 percent more burning done than last fall,” he said. Last year, controlled fires were set on 185,702 acres out of Oregon’s more than 30 million forested acres. That was about 16,000 acres above the 10-year annual average of 169,779 acres burned. Estimates are that those fires burned almost 1.3 million tons of woody debris.
Man found with stab wound taken to hospital, investigation underway On Thursday, Sept. 26, at about 12:39 a.m., Lincoln City Police responded to a disturbance call in the Northwest 3400 block of Hwy 101. Upon arrival, officers found a 30-year-old male at a residence who was bleeding from a stab wound to his abdomen. Medical responders where called to the scene and the victim was quickly transported to Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital for initial medical treatment. A short time later the victim was transported by ambulance to Legacy Emanuel for further medical treatment of his injuries. The victim’s condition was listed as stable.
Officers began the initial scene investigation and Lincoln City Police detectives responded for further assistance. During the investigation several persons were interviewed and evidence was collected at the scene. Subsequent to the investigation, a 43-year-old female from Siletz, identified as Sonya Rae Foster, was taken into custody for probation violation. She was later transported to the Lincoln County Jail and lodged there. The investigation into this incident is continuing. Anyone with information regarding this incident is asked to contact Detective Bud Lane at 541-9943636.

Have a Ball this October
EXPLORE LINCOLN CITY
Fall colors are in the air… and on the beach! The new season of Finders Keepers is about to unfold. To kick off the 2020 season, Explore Lincoln City invites the public to attend the annual Glass Ball, a celebration of the beloved glass float program. The Glass Ball, formerly the Glass Gala, was an annual tradition to kick-off the Finders Keepers season and was sadly discontinued in 2011. The event was a semi-formal affair featuring dinner, live music and a complimentary glass float for each attendant. In 2018, Explore Lincoln City re-imagined this tradition as the Glass Ball to celebrate the 20th year
of Finders Keepers. The reintroduced Glass Ball also shifted from a visitor event to a local celebration. The event was a success, selling out all 200 tickets within just a few days. For those that missed out last year, now is your opportunity to attend this popular local event. “Explore Lincoln City is excited to host the Glass Ball again this year,” said Scott Humpert, Marketing Manager at Explore Lincoln City. “We hope this event becomes an annual tradition that everyone looks forward to. We see this as a small way we can say thank you to the community. After a busy summer season, it’s always nice to wind down and have a little fun.” The Glass Ball will be held, once again, at the

Lincoln County School District ushers in new reading curriculum THE NEWS GUARD
New Districtwide school reading programs in the Lincoln County School District are getting rave reviews from students and teachers. This is the first Districtwide adoption of the new reading curriculum in approximately 14 years according to Administration. A committee formed last year to select an appropriate and engaging curriculum that aligned with Common Core standards and the choice for K-6 is National Geographic Learning’s Reach for Reading program. The curriculum includes colorful textbooks, classroom sets of novels and picture books, like those available at bookstores, National Geographic Explorer magazines, videos, and computerized literacy games. For grades 7-10, the adopted program is Pearson myPerspectives literacy program. Pearson explains on their website that, “myPerspectives is a brand new English language arts curriculum for Grades 6–12 that values the perspective of the learner, collectively and individually, and provides next-gen learning experiences that promote higher achievement and develop the competencies needed for college and career readiness. Interactive learning blends print and technology in a student-centered,

The new program creates an interactive, engaging, and relevant learning environment through readings, meaningful activities, and purposeful performance tasks. teacher-inspired classroom. This dynamic Pearson program creates an interactive, engaging, and relevant learning environment through readings, meaningful activities, and purposeful performance tasks. myPerspectives encourages social collaboration as well as student ownership of learning through goal setting, choice, and reflection.” Besides fitting in better with Common Core, the District chose the myPerspectives and the National Geographic program because they are multicultural. “The new reading curriculum
has a robust selection of nonfiction and informational reading passages from a wide variety of authors, allowing students to experience fresh perspectives,” said Dominic Scharp, a Waldport High School English teacher. Marcy Doyle, the Reading Specialist at Crestview Heights Elementary who is also a National Board Certified Teacher and a 2019 Oregon Regional Teacher of the Year and Oregon Teacher of the Year Finalist said Reach for Reading provides teachers, students, families and schools with a vital link and strong connection to
powerful learning progressions, all focused on building a strong reading life. “Reach for Reading provides teachers and students with a comprehensive curriculum – where our “arrows” are all shooting in the same direction with purpose and accuracy,” Doyle said. “It provides teachers with an array of strategies and targeted skill work aligned to the Common Core State Standards, infused with collaborative learning strategies, filled with opportunities for student questioning, powerful discussions and connections to learning, all to assist us in growing our life-long, joyful readers. “I look forward to utilizing the intervention lessons to help students access grade-level content collaborate with classroom teachers and help to build strong readers and writers. Teachers are working furiously to read, digest, implement and enhance all the learning opportunities provided throughout the Reach for Reading program.” Shelley Moore, Principal of Sam Case Elementary in Newport said the school appreciates the new reading material because it allows them to integrate other subjects together during reading instruction. “It also allows us all to align with reading curriculum and with regard to professional learning to our teachers,” Moore said.
Another teacher who uses the curriculum, Rachel LaMarche, Fifth Grade Teacher and TAG Coordinator for Taft Elementary said the curriculum offers stories that students can connect with. “I also love the fact all my materials are ready to go and easily adaptable to classrooms,” LaMarche said. “This program will provide a rigor and expectation that students will be successful with. I can’t wait to see the growth we will gain as a district in reading.” The District reached out to Aimee Thompson, Recycling Coordinator for Thompson’s Sanitary Service for suggestion on how best to take care of the old materials. Thompson found a vendor out of McMinnville, AllBooks213, who will be coming to pick up all the old materials at no cost to recycle or reuse them thereby saving the District money, labor, and helping the planet, too. The total spent on the new materials was $816,000. MyPerspectives (Grades 7-10) was $164,806; $73,668 from the district’s State School Fund allocation (general fund) and $91,138 from Measure 98 High School Success funds. Reach for Reading (Grades K-6) is $651,223; $189,590 from the district’s State School Fund allocation (general fund) and $461,633 from the district’s Federal School Improvement Grant.

Taft runners “Finnish” strong at Toledo Challenge MAX KIRKENDALL newsguardeditor@countrymedia.net
The Taft 7-12 boys cross country team got a big boost this past week and it came in the form of foreign exchange student Matias Vesma from Finland. The Tiger harriers were down south at Toldeo competing in the Toldeo XC Challenge on Sept. 28. Racing around the Olalla Golf Course, the Taft girls got the day started with a small 35-runner race that featured just one finishing Lady Tiger. Senior Alani Cabal was
the solo finisher for Taft with a time of 33:31.10. “We have been struggling with a lot of sickness this week, but everybody was able to pull it together and run a great race,” head coach Eva Ahumada said. “It was a fast course, and the competition was stiff. Philomath and Tillamook both have outstanding cross country teams.” The younger Taft boys gained some great experience in the junior varsity race as freshman Eli Jones, sophomore Zander Hryczyk both tallied personal record (PR) times.
As a team, the boys jumped up into third place overall, behind Philomath (first) and Tillamook (second). With a new season low point total for Taft, it has Ahumada excited for the possibility for a district title. “Our times today have situated our team in a great spot for Districts with Athletic.net giving our team a hypothetical first placing at the District Meet,” Ahumada said. Taft is now prepping COURTESY PHOTOS/ HEATHER HATTON
Foreign exchange student Matias Vesma, from Finland, placed fourth at the Toledo XC Challenge Saturday. In the varsity race, the 47-runner boys race featured PR’s from freshmen Angelo Cruz and Cooper Fitch, as well as sophomore Brayan Mateo. The senior tandem of Hunter Lundstedt and Lucas Hindman had solid races once again, finishing with times of 19:38.33 and 18:46.50 respectively. But the top Tiger runner
Saturday was Vesma, who clocked a 17:29.32, en route to a fourth place finish overall. “I was very impressed by the dedication our team showed at today’s meet,” Ahumada said after the meet. “Matias Vesma proved to be a true contender and we are excited to have him on the team.”

Lady Tigers celebrate perfect week of league play MAX KIRKENDALL newsguardeditor@countrymedia.net
The Taft 7-12 volleyball team is finding their rhythm, and it’s resulting in some of the Lady Tigers’ best play in years. They’ve now won the most games in a single season since the 2014-15 season, and they’re looking for more. After losing a nail biter to Warrenton to open league play on Sept. 19, the Tigers used that close 3-2 match as a confidence booster before facing Rainier and Clatskanie. “Despite the loss against Warrenton, we were happy with how the match went, as five close sets is about as good a loss as you can have,” head coach Kelsey Hart said. “We came away with things to work on, and again, despite the loss, a lot of confidence about how we can play this season.” Taft vs. Rainier Taft then played in a tournament in Salem before traveling to Rainier Tuesday, Sept. 24, to play a league game against the Columbians, who have yet to win a game all year. Although Taft looked to be the favorite going in, Hart tried to keep her team focused on the task at hand. “They were the league champs last year, and with our low win total last year, we don’t discount anyone’s abilities,” Hart said. “We had a game plan going into the match, and the coaching staff really tried to keep the girls focused on that.” Hart said time in the film room was all the Lady Tigers needed to
Taft. Clatskanie recovered slightly, but were quickly shut down by the cohesiveness of the Taft squad, who took set one, 25-13. Set number two was all Taft, as Hatton delivered another string of 10 plus points and senior Corey Van Damme controlled the Tiger offense. Taft won set two easily, 25-4. Taft let loose in the third and final set as sophomore Keeara Harmon and junior Jordan Ramsey teed up crushing shots to the Clatskanie defense to complement their stellar serving. Taft cruised to a 25-7 set win and a 3-0 sweep to
win their second game in a row. At the midway point in the season, Taft has already matched their league win total from last year and surpassed their overall win total at three games. However, Hart foresees plenty more opportunities for victories in the second half of the season. “This team has such great potential this year and it’s amazing to see when they put everything together,” Hart said. Taft has enjoyed a well-deserved week off from play and will be back on the court Oct. 3, when they play at Willamina at 6 p.m.

Rainier fought back in the second set, but the Tigers closed out strong, winning 25-21. At that point in the game Taft had all the momentum rolling in their direction and cruised to a 25-16 third set win and 3-0 sweep. “The girls felt confident and proud of how they had executed
