Community answers call for toys JIM FOSSUM sports@thenewsguard.com
Five-year-old James wants a toy T-Rex and a dragon. Younger brother Lawrence, 4, wants a Frisbee for his dog. No one knows what the packages the two young Kennedy toddlers will rip open this morning will contain, but the important thing is they now have presents from Santa Claus thanks to what organizers called an overwhelming response for their cries for toys as time was running out on the city’s annual holiday food and toy drive. “This is absolutely amazing,” said Colvin Cutshall, whose step kids and girlfriend and mother of the two boys, Claudia Kennedy, benefitted greatly from the community’s last-ditch effort to put smiles on
Talks are expected to continue in January to develop a partnership between Samaritan Health Services, operator of Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital, and the City of Lincoln City to allow Samaritan to lease and operate the Lincoln City Community Center’s fitness facility. During the North Lincoln Hospital District’s Dec. 19 monthly board meeting, Dr, Leslie Ogden, the hospital’s chief operating officer, outlined concerns about community rumors concerning the partnership effort. “My concern is that we haven’t even begun to fully work with the City and discuss the options that may be possible to partnership before some in the community began rumors and distorted the whole process,” Ogden said. Ogden said the rumors indicated that Samaritan Health Services was planning to take over the entire Lincoln City Community Center. “We aren’t talking about taking over the Lincoln City Community Center,” Ogden said. “We have an obligation to change people’s thinking and to educate them See CENTER, Page A7

Concerns voiced over Logan Park proposal A proposal to build a 76-unit, multimillion dollar mixed used housing project on Logan Road at Roads End sparked several concerns Dec. 18 during a neighborhood meeting at the Liberty Inn. Many of the concerns from the 30 people who attended the meeting centered on increased traffic, loss of natural views, and the ability of developers to finish the project and generate home and apartment sales. Following an 11-acre clear-cut two years ago,

Road area, said while the proposed development has many good ideas, she is concerned. “I would agree with the people at this meeting,” Loch said. “We don’t have a lot of jobs and opportunity, and it is hard to imagine that these would be full-time residents living at Logan Park. People are concerned about the hotel quality that may develop because there won’t be jobs. Who’s going to buy these homes?” Chuck Carvell owns property across Logan Road from the proposed development.

plans are in the works to develop a natural area with trails and lookouts surrounded by single-family homes, row houses and flats, and a center green space that would anchor the proposed Logan Park. But as of Dec. 20, no official site plans have been submitted to the City of Lincoln City.

As 2013 winds down, we’re already getting wound up about our winter and spring programming at Driftwood Public Library. January brings with it a longstanding tradition: Driftwood’s Oregon Legacy author series. The series, sponsored by the Friends of Driftwood Public Library, hosts four to five Oregon authors every year. This year marks 20 years (that’s two decades, folks!) of Oregon Legacy, and we are very excited about the lineup. All events take place at 3 p.m. Sundays in January and February. On Sunday, Jan.12, the library will host Sharon Sites Adams, author of Pacific Lady and the first woman to sail solo across the Pacific Ocean. The feat led her to named the Los Angeles Times’ Woman of the Year in 1969. Adams, who now resides in Portland, will discuss her adventures and her memories of this momentous trip. The 19th brings R. Gregory Nokes, author of Breaking Chains: Slavery on Trial in the Oregon Territory and Massacred for Gold: the Chinese in Hells Canyon. Nokes is a retired journalist who has a strong fascination with historical events in the Pacific Northwest. And fans of author Philip Margolin should take note — Margolin’s forthcoming Worthy Brown’s Daughter is based on the events described in Nokes’ Breaking Chains. The Legacy series continues on Jan. 26 with novelist Monica Drake. Drake teaches at the Pacific Northwest College of Art in Portland. Her first novel, Clown Girl, has won several awards and has been optioned for a film starring Kristin Wiig. Her most recent novel, The Stud Book, explores the complexities of parenting (and wanting to parent) in the modern world. Matt Love, a perennial favorite, will join us on Feb. 2. Love has written copiously about Oregon and about the Central Coast in particular, with books such as Sometimes a Great Movie: Ken Kesey, Paul Newman, and the Filming of the Great American Novel and Love and the Green Lady: Meditations on the Yaquina Bay Bridge. Love was awarded the Stewart H.
Holbrook Literary Legacy Award in 2009 for his contributions to Oregon history and literature. His latest book is Of Walking in Rain, a No. 1 regional bestseller at Powell’s Books in Portland. The series closes on Feb. 9 with Pauls Toutonghi. Toutonghi teaches at Lewis and Clark College in Portland. He received the Pushcart Prize for his short story “Regeneration” in 2001, when he was just 23. He is the author of the novels Red Weather and, more recently, Evel Knievel Days. As if all this literary excitement isn’t enough, the library is also gearing up to celebrate 100 Years of William Stafford as part of the statewide Oregon Reads program. Throughout the year, libraries all around the state will join in encouraging their communities to read poet laureate Stafford’s work and engage with it in a multitude of ways. The party starts at 3 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 5, with —
appropriately enough —¬ a birthday party for Stafford. The library will continue to host Staffordthemes events throughout late winter and early spring, exploring the many aspects of Stafford’s life and work: a man deeply rooted in the land and environment of the Pacific Northwest, a pacifist and political activist, and an eminently readable poet. The celebration will culminate in April, National Poetry Month, with a poetry workshop and readings from community poets. For more information about upcoming events at the library, visit www.driftwoodlib.org or follow us on Facebook. The library is located on the second floor at 801 S.W. Highway 101 in Lincoln City, next door to Price & Pride. Kirsten Brodbeck-Kenney is the Driftwood Library director. She can be reached at 541-9961251.

with the host. The host should know a few things about the liquor that is being served. For instance, beer and wine are just as intoxicating as distilled spirits. A 12-ounce can of beer; a fiveounce glass of wine; a 12-ounce wine cooler; and an ounce and a half of liquor contain nearly the same amount of alcohol. Mixers won’t help dilute alcohol; they just make alcohol tastier. In fact, scientific research reveals that alcoholic drinks using artificial sweeteners lead to a higher rate of alcohol absorption, resulting in a greater blood alcohol concentration than from drinks made with sugar-based mixers.
Carbonated mixers like club soda or tonic water cause alcohol to be absorbed into a person’s system more quickly. Fruit juice and other sweet mixers mask the taste of alcohol and might cause people to drink more. And lastly, there is a tendency to rely on someone’s physical appearance to determine his/ her state of intoxication. If someone you know is acting out of character, they might be intoxicated.

Call him Colt .45 – proudly BY SAYDE MOSER smoser@countrymedia.net
At just over 3 weeks old, Colt Stratemyer is by far Tillamook’s youngest celebrity, thanks to his parents’ choice of a middle name for the boy – .45. That’s right, he’s Colt .45 Stratemyer. After his birth announcement appeared in the Headlight Herald, baby Colt has drawn national attention. From NBC to a “Comedy Central” blog to an anti-gun editorial, everyone seems to have an opinion about the newborn’s name. “His older brother’s name is Hunter,” mom Rebekah Stratemyer reported. “And since my husband and I aren’t likely going to have any more children, we wanted to stay with the hunting theme and do something fun.” Stratemyer, 26, said she wasn’t expecting the name to garner so much attention. “His birth announcement
is all over the Internet,” she said. “And people are saying really negative things about his dad and I, and they don’t even know us.” Stratemyer and her husband, Josh, are Tillamook natives who grew up enjoying the outdoors. “We’re country folks,” she said. “We enjoy hunting, fishing, target shooting and all that stuff. “We weren’t naming him to be rude, we just liked the name.” “His name doesn’t make him who he is,” said David Schwend, the baby’s step grandfather. “Why not be happy he was born healthy?” Stratemyer said she and her husband did their research to ensure they could legally name their new son Colt .45. “I’m very proud of my kid and where he came from,” she said. “I think his name emphasizes that. It’s different, it’s unique and it might really mean something to him when he gets older.” Added Schwend,
Calvin G. Parrish passed away peacefully at his residence in Fallon with his family by his side on December 13, 2013.

The sight of empty stockings and barren Christmas trees remained a genuine possibility for many local families a mere week before Santa’s arrival as efforts remained perilously short of fulfilling the call for a merry holiday for the needy. Just a week ago, less than half the necessary toys had been collected. Foul weather and the economy were blamed. “After the article that The News Guard ran, we had people actually showing up at the fire station standing there with one-hundred dollar bills,” said volunteer firefighter Marc McPherson of North Lincoln Fire & Rescue District #1 (NLFR). “We took all that money down the same day and started buying toys and the toys that were added to the bins that day and the next day allowed us to get quality toys for all the kids.” “Everything came together just fantastically,” Jan Hall of the Elks Club said. “The way the community has come through is overwhelming.” “We had enough toys to fill up every single bag and we’re very appreciative and all the volunteers that we have, not only the fire department, but local people,” said Vicky Fry of the Elks Club, who separated the toys.

Smoking ban proposed for state parks, possibly beaches JEREMY C. RUARK jruark@countrymedia.net
Oregon Coast residents will have the chance to comment next month in Newport on a proposal that could ban smoking in some areas of Oregon’s state parks. The ban might also extend to Oregon beaches. The Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD) is seeking reaction to proposed rule changes that would control smoking in outdoor areas of state parks. Public hearings have been scheduled during January at Newport, Grants Pass, Bend and St. Paul. The Newport hearing will be held at 7 p.m. Jan. 16 at the Newport Recreation Center, 225 Avery Street S.SE. The proposed changes, which can be found at http:// tinyurl.com/oregonstateparksmoking, are designed, in part, to reduce litter and protect natural resources in Oregon’s state parks. Smoking is already prohibited in public buildings in the parks. The change proposes to limit smoking to personal vehicles, tents, and RVs, plus campsites in developed overnight camping areas. “We started looking at this when the Governor issued an order restricting smoking at all state buildings a year ago,” said Richard Walkoski, with Oregon State Parks. “He asked us to review a smoking ban at state parks.” After park officials began looking into what smoking issues the parks face, a common problem emerged. “The park rangers said, hands down, that cigarette butts are the real problem,’ said Walkoski. “You can imagine the environmental damage caused by filter cigarettes. They do not biodegrade and they create all kinds of environmental problems.” But the proposed ban is balanced, Walkoski said. “It didn’t make sense to us to restrict smoking completely in all the state parks,” he said. “To be fair to our customers that do smoke, we will allow smoking at specific campsites and in private vehicles.” The Oregon Parks Commission is expected to review public comments and act on the proposed ban at its Feb. 6 meeting and the restrictions could be implemented in March. It would be a full year before enforcement takes
A series of public meetings will be held next month to review proposed smoking restrictions at Oregon state parks.
State Parks Smoking Ban Meeting
• 7 p.m. Jan 16 • Newport Recreation Center 225 Avery St. S.E. Newport place. “We will use the whole year as an education time to help everyone understand what the restrictions are and why they are needed,” Walkoski said. “We are not going to plaster signs all over the park. We will talk with park visitors to explain the new policy and place information on the state park’s web site.” When enforcement does begin, Walkoski said it would be conducted through a stepby-step process that would include voluntary compliance after warnings from park rangers. “If the verbal warnings don’t work, we will issue written warnings and could even issue a citation that would carry a fine of $60 to $110,” he said. The Parks Commission is expected to also review extending the smoking restrictions to the Oregon beaches at its February meeting since the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department is charged with managing the beaches. “Our real reason behind the smoking restrictions is to get a handle on the littering and environmental damage caused by cigarettes,” Walkoski said. Comments may be made at the public meetings or also be e-mailed to oprd. publiccomment@state.or.us and written comments may be sent to Richard Walkoski, Oregon Parks and Recreation Department, 725 Summer St. NE, Suite C, Salem OR 97301. Public comments will be accepted until 5 p.m. on Jan 17.

Police track pot distribution operation, make two arrests Two people face charges after a traffic stop led local authorities to a marijuana distribution network originating in Oregon. The arrests in Siletz took place earlier this month by officers from the Lincoln Interagency Narcotics Team (LINT), Oregon State Police’s (OSP) High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (HIDTA) team and Idaho State Police. The investigation stemmed from a traffic stop by Idaho State Police and linked the two listed suspects to a marijuana distribution network originating in Oregon with large quantities destined for Texas. Authorities said the ongoing investigation has reached a point that information is being released. On Dec. 2, LINT detectives and HIDTA team members became involved in the investigation after two male subjects were stopped by Idaho State Police just over the Oregon border and found to be in possession of more than 30 pounds of marijuana. An interagency investigation led to a search warrant being served at 485 Fred Taylor Road in Siletz, where the marijuana originated. Detectives and officers from OSP and Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office seized approximately 46
ounces of marijuana, two firearms, a honey (hash) oil lab, and other evidence related to the distribution of marijuana. Detectives learned that large quantities of marijuana were collected from several medical marijuana locations in Lincoln and Lane counties for shipment both by courier and through UPS and FedEx. At the time of serving the search warrant, a 7-year old boy was in the residence, along with three adults. During the investigation, Jonathan Charles Owens, 27, and Justina Fay Redfearn, 25, were arrested. Owens faces charges including unlawful manufacturer, delivery and

Sheriff’s detectives arrested Mryczko Dec. 19 on seven counts of encouraging child sex abuse in the first degree and on an additional seven counts of encouraging child sex abuse in the second
degree. Mryczko was lodged in the Lincoln County Jail with bail set at $2.1 million.

The Lincoln City Police Department last used the DUII Enforcement Grant funds to conduct one enhanced enforcement operation over the Thanksgiving holiday time period. During that operation, one driver was arrested for DUII. The investigation determined this driver’s had a blood alcohol content that was almost two times over the limit of .08 percent.

It is a simple message: “We will be looking for you if you drive drunk or impaired, and we will arrest you,” said Sgt. Jeffery Winn of the Lincoln City Police Department. Lincoln City Police are using a state grant to beef up holiday traffic enforcement. “The grant allows us to add an extra officer, pre-shift, during times when we believe higher numbers of impaired or distracted drivers will be on the roadways to prevent people from getting injured or killed,” Winn said. The “High Visibility Enforcement” event began Dec. 13 and runs through Jan. 2. It is designed to increase the number of patrol officers on the streets with an emphasis on seeking out drunk drivers. Impaired driving continues to be a leading cause of motor vehicle crash deaths and injuries throughout the nation. “We will be looking for drivers that are weaving, going way under or way over the speed limit, changing lanes without signaling, and making wide turns,” said Winn. The fines for DUII could

about this issue.” “We have to move ahead with what we think is a good thing,” said Ester Schwartz, the NLHD vice chair. “We need to set the record straight.” NLHD Chair Gordon McLean also voiced support for the partnership. “This is a good thing and we hope this project moves forward,” he said. Ogden and Lincoln City City Manager David Hawker said any partnership between Samaritan and the City would be limited. “We are not considering turning over the Center lock, stock and barrel to anyone else,” said Hawker. “That rumor has been circulating and it is not accurate.” “We would like the opportunity to continue to talk with the City and see if we could come to a mutual and beneficial agreement for us to continue to provide population wellness and continue operations at our wonderful community center,” Ogden said. “The worst case scenario would be if rumors get in the way of us being able to work with the City to come up with a really fabulous plan for everyone involved.” Ogden said the benefits
to members could include enhanced services and a different rate structure if an agreement is reached. “We hope that the partnership would be made so that the current employees would stay and the rates would not be significantly increased,” she said. According to Ogden, Samaritan’s fitness facilities at other locations, including Corvallis, are marginally profitable. Hawker said the City is interested in considering partnerships with Samaritan and any other group that could help reduce the City’s $1.2 million annual cost of operating the facility at 2150 N.E. Oar Place. “There is only so much the City can do,” said Hawker. “We have already converted other Center programs to contractors, like personal trainers, in an effort to reduce our costs.” Community Center Director Gail Kimberling said efforts continue to address concerns expressed by members and visitors. “Local residents are most concerned about maintaining affordable prices for memberships and classes,” she said. “Both members and visitors have said they want the Community Center to keep and expand current

to attract visitors,” he said. “We could use more swim meets. The meets bring in lots of people to participate, their families, their friends and visitors and that helps our economy.”

Fitness is part of that and we can’t ignore that,” Ogden said. “We would be negligent if we didn’t address that. That is part of our overall mission and the reason we are pursing this partnership. We hope we can make an agreement that is beneficial to the City, to the Community and helps the Community Center continue operations.” Talks between the City and Samaritan Health Services will resume in January. According to Kimberling, nearly 92,000 customers come through the doors of the Community Center each year: 68 percent are members and 32 percent drop-ins. The figure does not include sports/swimming spectators, people who visit the Senior Center or meal site, or those who attend functions in the Center’s meeting rooms.

“My main objection is the apartment units along Logan that would generate a huge amount of traffic and there is not going to be any view because the apartments will be three stories high,” said Carvell. “The other homes would ruin the view, too. I don’t see that it is going to work.” Reece said he understands the reaction of those who expressed concerns. “The reaction is one of concern and one of compassion for their own neighborhoods and to make sure what happens here is sincere,” he said. “But this plan is workable because it doesn’t require a tremendous amount of infrastructure to get it off the ground.” Reece said that the neighbors’ concerns could mean the project design could be adjusted. “Some of the neighbors had indicated if we build all the streets and let them sit, we might make a mistake,” said Reece. “So, we might want to consider a phased approach with maybe access to the first 15 units with mixed housing to give people something different to buy and move into.” Reece said the neighbors should not fear the development of apartments at Logan Park. “Because there are people who work a block-and-a-half away and don’t have a car who would probably like the

In an email sent to the Roads End Improvement Association and others following the Dec. 18 meeting, Catlin writes: “First of all, we appreciate your ongoing interest in the project. It takes time to work through many details and each person brings a perspective that may catch a detail missed by others. We received many comments at the neighborhood meeting Wednesday evening, some of which are shared by other coastal communities Vacation Rental Dwellings (VRDs)

For those comments regarding the site design, we will begin the work of modifying the layout but with the holidays just days away, there will not be a revised plan until sometime in January.” Reece said he would share the neighbors’ comments with the Logan Park property owner. “We will take all the feedback serious and we will take it back to the property owner for review and have a discussion of how he wants to move forward,” Reece said.

court pressure and it resulted in the tempo of the game being played a little faster than I would have cared to see,” he said. “I thought we handled their pressure sufficiently, but we missed a lot of easy shot opportunities. I told the girls they made things a little more stressful on their coach than perhaps they needed to.” Adams scored 13 points and junior BillyAnn Stempel 12 in Wednesday’s lopsided home victory over Nestucca, where the Tigers built a 24-9 halftime lead. “Our game against Nestucca was extremely valuable to me as a coach, as it revealed a lot about where we are at as a team at this point in the season,” Mock said. “Nestucca played zone defense the entire game, and in the first half we were way too content as a team to fire up shots from long distance, which played right into the hands of what the other team wanted us to do. At halftime, we made some adjustments and did a much better job of being aggressive against the zone, rather than being so passive. We did not score as much in the second half, but that was largely due to changes in what we were doing defensively.”
The Taft High girls basketball team saw a fast start to the week come to a grinding halt over the weekend, culminating in a four-game split of games entering the Christmas holidays. Taft defeated Sheridan 41-30 on the road Tuesday, Dec. 17; defeated Nestucca 44-17 on Wednesday, Dec. 18; lost to Amity 54-36 on Friday, Dec. 20; and lost to Scio 6550 on Saturday, Dec. 21. Taft’s boys team split two games at Amity. Details were not reported. Senior Taylor Adams scored 15 points ad junior Kendra Knudson added 14 in Tuesday’s victory over Sheridan. “This was our first game in almost two weeks because of winter weather cancellations, so it was good to get back at things,” Taft coach Dab Mock said. “We were missing our starting post, Katie McCardell, due to illness, and Kendra did a nice job filling in for her.” Mock said his team’s ability to adapt to an uptempo pace helped his team to the win. “Sheridan used some full-

It will also be the season debut of seniors Seth Steere, Keaton Fisher and Kollbei Noble. “Adding these guys to the lineup will push us up the tournament standings, and the added experience for our younger guys will go a long way for them,” Hall said. “I’m proud of our effort this weekend, especially for the beginners, and we’re on our way to fielding on of the deeper teams we’ve had in some time.”

Things changed quickly for the Tigers over the weekend at Amity High’s Warrior Classic, where the hosts defeated Taft 54-36 in the opener after jumping on top 23-9 at halftime despite a game-high 11 points from sophomore Kelsey Wilkinson. “The defensive effort we put forth was inexplicably bad in the first half, and we let them walk over us,” Mock said. “We left their shooters wide open, did a terrible job at working to get good rebounding position, and we rotated poorly when trying to apply full court pressure.” Despite losing, Mock said he was pleased with this team’s play in Saturday’s 15-point loss to Scio, where Adams scored a season-high 22 points. “I’m not happy with the loss, but I actually came away from this game feeling very encouraged at how we responded to the lackluster effort we gave against Amity the night before,” he said. “In my opinion, this game was closer than the score shows, and it was a lot of fun to be a part of. Scio is a much better team than their record suggests, as their losses have been narrow in margin and have come against solid competition. Unfortunately for us, Scio came out shooting the basketball at a blistering rate.”

Justin finally made it under six minutes in the 500 and Shawna had a good meet. We had some great races, but we were the smallest team there.” “I continue to see confidence in Makayla, Sam Shott and Charles Sims getting used to high school meets. Some swimmers, like Dylan and Eli, continue to work hard, but are not dropping times.” Taft is scheduled to compete next on Friday, Jan. 10, at Sweet Home.

Winter Whale Watch Week opens JIM FOSSUM sports@thenewsguard.com
“Thar she blows,” might be a commonly heard battle cry of sorts beginning the day after Christmas on the Oregon Coast when Winter Whale Watch Week begins in the Pacific Northwest. “Typically, in the peak of their southern migration, we’ll see 30 per hour,” Renee Fowler, Beverly Beach State Park ranger, said. From their feeding grounds in the Arctic to their breeding grounds around Baja, Calif., thousands of Gray whales will continue their migration south for the cold winter months.
“The whole whale population travels down to Baja,” Fowler said. “They usually start navigating along the coastline south in November and they all arrive in Baja by February.” The week of Dec. 26-31 has therefore been designated as a prime time to spot whales at the Whale Watching Center in Depoe Bay. “We pick the dates for the winter watch week based on the school break of Oregon,” Fowler said. “We know that we’ll have a good visitation during that time, so we’re looking to spot whales along the coastline during the peak of their migration and have the opportunity to speak with visitors about it as they
come to the Coast for the holidays.” Twenty-four spots along the Oregon Coast, including one each in Washington (Lewis & Clark Interpretive Center at Cape Disappointment State Park, four miles southwest of Ilwaco at the foot of the Long Beach Peninsula) and one in Crescent, City, Calif., will be staffed from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. each day with trained volunteers to share their knowledge and enthusiasm with visitors, Fowler said. “We choose all the sites based on the visibility for seeing whales,” she said. “We want to make sure you have a nice overview and a panoramic view of the See WHALES Page B2

Earth Abides By Ken McCormack
The Dark Sacred Night As at child, I learned that the highest spiritual expression of Christmas is “getting and spending.” Mainly, how much would I get? But then I saw the light — candlelight. I grew up in a neighborhood that set out luminarios on Christmas Eve. You might have seen them — folded paper sacks, with sand at the bottom and a lit candle. Thousands of them set a couple of feet apart outline the sidewalks, driveways and houses for block after block. Luminarios create a magical fairyland. Every house did them. It was compulsory. People came from miles around to look. For days, my friends and I spent hours folding thousands of sacks. We set them out at dusk, cursing the cold and lighting candles in the wind. But it was worth it. We were lighting the way for Joseph and Mary. Through the dark and sacred night. Somewhere, Louis Armstrong would be singing “It’s a Wonderful World” in smokefilled clubs. He sang of “Skies of blue, clouds of white, /The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night.” He sang in Times Square and Las Vegas where people work and play 24 hours through nights of blasted artificial light. Sacred dark is gone. In fact, most Americans never experience deep darkness. My earliest memory of dark sky is so fine. My family moved to Albuquerque in 1945 and I was five. At 5,000 feet on a moonless night, a warm summer night, lying on my back, staring into the flecks of lights flowing like a milky river, you could have counted some 3,000 stars. The eyes of God, they were called, the perpetual presence of the sublime. Today, you might see a dozen. You mostly see a reddish dome of reflected heat and light. I have seen that dome from 10,000 feet high and 100 miles away. At that distance, the reflected light competes with your campfire. So it is with most cities. Even around Lincoln City, you seldom walk the beach in sacred darkness. Motels and houses blast the sand with spotlights. Security light enters your bedroom through closed blinds. Five percent of the energy of this incandescent light actually produces light. The rest is wasted. At 3 a.m. the traffic would die off. The streets were deathly quiet; the flickering warm candles faded into sacred darkness. What a wonderful world! Christmas was a waiting time, on the darkest days of the year, not waiting for Santa, but for the return of the sun, for light to cycle back home. No one knows when Jesus was born. Christians celebrated the miracle during the solstice period, which usually lasted 12 days. They joined celebrations that had been going on for thousands of years. One day, the third, was for gifts. I live on the north side of Cascade Head, three miles from Highway 101. It is one of the darkest places on earth. One night I got lost in my driveway. I walked away from the car and suddenly could not even see my feet. I could not see the house. I stumbled into the fishpond, and groped my way blindly to the porch. I am thankful for that dark. Life evolved in 24-hour cycles of dark and light, day and night — the most basic rhythm of life for plants, insects and animals. Its interruption sickens and kills. So I pray for darkness this Christmas. And I wish for you all a dark and silent and holy night. Where you sleep in heavenly peace waiting for the blessed — not blasted — light of day.

However, sighting the whales’ vapor spout that extends 6 to 12 feet high is not guaranteed depending on the weather, she said.

OPRD coordinates both the winter and spring whalewatch weeks in partnership with the Oregon State University Hatfield Marine Science Center and Washington State Parks, which operates the Lewis and Clark
Interpretive Center. More information about the Whale Watching Spoken Here program and a map of the viewpoints are available online at www.whalespoken. org. Persons interested in helping spot Gray whales in the future can attend a training session Jan. 11 in Brookings and Feb. 8 in Nehalem. The sessions teach
you to find, identify and understand whales along the Oregon Coast. Training is free if you pre-register and sign up to volunteer at one of the watch sites for at least two days during a Watch Week. For further information, call 541-765-3407 or 541-265-4560 or visit www. whalespoken.org.

physical expression of our students and community.
in residency programs include several grade levels at a time. I would estimate that since the year 2000, we have reached 3,000 to 4,000 students in Lincoln County.
NG: Why is it important to provide arts for children and young adults in our community? KLAAS: The arts have been systematically cut from the curriculum in the schools and more cuts are coming. If community organizations like LTBA don’t join together to help provide these services, the students are the losers.
NG: What community programs/ projects have been developed to meet that mission? KLAAS: Since 2000, we have served thousands of children through the following programs: Artist in Residency programs, Concerts in the Schools, After School Arts, Saturday Arts, Summer Arts programs, Mural projects, Art Field Trips, Public Arts Projects, Movement, Drama and Dance instruction in the schools, Student Art shows in the Community, Purchase of art supplies and art curriculum for teachers
NG: What is the future of Let There Be Arts? KLAAS: Let There Be Arts will continue to provide the programs mentioned above. In addition, we have partnered with Neighbors for Kids in Depoe Bay to provide weekly art instruction during their Kids Zone program. We are working with music director Andy Hordichok at Taft 7-12 middle and high school to bring in professionals to help individual
NG: How many children has Let There Be Arts reached with its programs? KLAAS: It’s hard to pinpoint an exact number. We have done several projects where every student in the school is involved – 400 to 500 at a time. Our all-school concerts are often given at several locations, artist

students with their band instruments. NG: Why are you involved in Let There Be Arts? KLAAS: I have been a teacher throughout my professional career. In 2002, I began working with LTBA and have been held captive ever since. I can see the difference we can make in the lives of the children, as well as their teachers and families. NG: What is the annual budget of Let There Be Arts and how is it funded? KLAAS: LTBA is funded through events such as our Annual Gala and
the New Year’s Eve event, through individual donations and through a variety of grants. Our annual budget is $60,000 to $80,000 depending on the projects. Let There Be Arts began in 2000 when Suzanne Dalton, principal of Taft Elementary School, and Lee Freed, owner of The Freed Gallery, had a conversation about the lack of arts education at the school. They formed a committee composed of teachers, staff, parents and business owners to assess the situation and brainstorm ways to bring the arts education to the children. The first annual fundraising gala, planned and held at The Freed Gallery, raised almost $20,000. LTBA, a nonprofit, funds artists in residence, field trips, after school art classes and concerts for students in Lincoln County.
