On May 8, the Stayton Fire District responded to a single vehicle accident on Kingston-Jordan Road with a vehicle on its side with a trapped occupant.

Stayton’s Command Vehicle, Engine and Rescue responded to the scene with

a total of 9 firefighters. After a 30 minute extrication, firefighters successfully removed the patient, who was then transported to Santiam Memorial Hospital with nonlife threatening injuries.

The patient was seat belted during the accident which greatly reduced the potential for injury.

The Stayton Fire District would like to remind everyone to buckle up, and be careful as our roads can be slick nearly any time of the year.

The Stayton Fire District is primarily a volunteer-manned department with stations in Mehama and on North Fork Rd (Elkhorn). They are the recent recipients of a 2014 Kawasaki Mule 4x4 ATV, which was donated in part

by Freres Lumber. They offer a cadet program for 16-17 year olds, and are actively seeking additional volunteers. Info: 503-769-2601 or www.staytonfire.org.

With eight national and Northwest artists and groups performing in the style of the Grand Ol’ Opry, the event was a fast paced

Medicare Assistance Workshop coming to Lyons

Senior Health Insurance Benefits Assistance (SHIBA) is holding a Medicare Assistance Workshop on June 18 at 10am at Lyons City Hall.

Certified SHIBA counselors will be available to assist Medicare recipients with questions, claims and appeals. Counselors will discuss the basics of Medicare, options for changes and assist with applications for limited income subsidies, also known as extra help.

This workshop is valuable for current beneficiaries as well as anyone that will be eligible within a few months. Spouses, friends and family members, including adult children, are welcome to attend.

“We know it is challenging for people, especially those on fixed incomes, to come to Albany or Lebanon for SHIBA counseling,” said Debbie Mode, the SHIBA Counselor Coordinator for Benton & Linn County.

“So we are having a special event and coming your way. Hopefully this will be the first of many trips to help seniors and people with disabilities that are on Medicare.”

SHIBA services are always free and impartial. SHIBA is a program of RSVP/ OCWCOG. For more information about the Medicare Assistance Workshop please contact Debbie at 541-812-0849

To the Editor, Congratulations to the Gates Fires Department for the wonderful Mother’s Day Brunch that they hosted. The food was exquisite! It was not your normal rubber eggs and frisbee pancakes that most buffets have. It was a well thought out menu completely different than what you would find in a typical buffet. The ladies of the Gates Fire Department prepared and served the guests themselves. All the food had to be made in house, very impressive.

There was a dessert table that must have been 20 feet long. There were all sorts of little food items I had never even heard of before, and I was a restaurateur here in the canyon 32 years.

My daughter from San Diego and son from Seattle were here with their families. My daughter Linda, works at the Sheridan Convention Hotel in San Diego and she said this buffet was as top notch as she has seen. We brought all our kids. Jim and HIs wife from Seattle. LInda and her family from San Diego, DebPhotos by bie and John and their family from Gates and Amanda Rust Bucket Photography and family from Mill City.

We hope they make this a yearly event as it was well worth it.

I’d like to thank Gary Swanson and friend for the music. A special thanks to Kathy Sherman and Sara Harris of Rustbucket Photography for taking family photos. This was the first time all of us in our family have gotten together in one place at one time in 25 years. Thank you, Lee and Joan Reynolds

Radio station organizers seek city variance to increase broadcast range

for a Martin guitar that was donated - as well as helped to organize a silent auction on items ranging from fine art, books, food and even a new Red Ryder BB gun.

Lucky bidders walked away with a new-in-the-box blow up Kayak and paddles, custom made and painted flower pots, locally made paddle art and jewelry.

The winner of the Martin guitar was Jeff and Mica Keto of Lyons who just knew they were going to win the guitar after buying 40 tickets.

A gross of $4200 was raised at this event and after expenses, still pending, a sizeable amount was added to the KYAC radio station startup budget. The amount need-

ed to finish the studio and buy the necessary equipment is under $5000 and Hearts to Arts is still looking for help from the community for this funding.

Historical society discusses local fire departments The following are the notes taken by Bill Sanderson at the May 1, 2014 North Santiam Historical Society meeting at the Gates Fire Hall: The meeting was called to order by Dale Kirsch at 7pm. Dale introduced Bruce Brunstadt as the program speaker to talk about the history of both Mill City and Gates Fire Departments.

All Fire Departments have the fastest response time of all emergency services.

Local Fire Departments respond to both local and highway incidents. Local departments respond to citizen issues and also to community needs such as neighbors helping neighbors. Many people attending the meeting commented on situations that were assisted by both the Mill City and the Gates departments.

In the entire United States of America, 70% of all Fire Department members are volunteers.

Mill City Volunteer Fire Department was formed in 1939. and covers ten square miles. Eighty percent of all calls are for medical related incidents.

Gates Volunteer Fire Department was formed in 1949 and covers 21 square miles, going up above Detroit Lake nearly to Santiam Junction and lncluding Idanha and Marion Forks. Gates Fire Department receives about 215 calls per year and 80 percent are medical related.

The volunteers have received extensive

emergency training and have saved many lives, dealt with broken and dislocated limbs and even delivered a baby on the highway.

Since the Fire Halls have plenty of space available and since the volunteers spend lots of time being on call, they are able to do much public service for the communities they serve while they are on call. They realize that they can serve the community at the same time they are protecting it.

Many of the Fire Fighters use their time to be community and Church leaders.

Gary Swanson is the Chief of the Gates Volunteer Fire Department and Leland Ohrt is the Chief for the Mill City Fire Department.

Gates Fire Department phone is 503897-2929. Mill City Fire Department is 503-897-2390. They both respond to their own phone numbers as well as 911.

No other business was mentioned, and Dale Kirsch adjourned the meeting at 7:30pm. The next general meeting is on June 5 at the Gates Fire Hall at 7pm and the public is invited to attend. The Historical Society Board meets on May 22.

These notes were taken by Bill Sanderson at 503-897-3301 or billsan@wvi.com.

Close Encounters in the Canyon

It was a clear August night in 2011. Charles Bradley * of Sublimity was out watering his yard on 9th St., like he does every night in the summer months. While he was pulling out the garden hose to stretch out the knots he looked out to the field beyond his house and noticed some blue and red lights. Not thinking much of it he continued on his evening chores. Thats when he noticed something much, much bigger in the distance behind a row of trees.

He describes a huge clear dome about 300 ft long that was on top of a dark disk. In the dome red and blue lights blinked in a circular fashion. “I threw down my hose and sat to the ground trying to understand what I was seeing. I had an iPod in my pocket, but was shaking so hard I couldn’t get it to record video,” said Bradley.

He sat there trembling as the object moved back and forth a few times times then continued on to the east, lifting up and exposing the immense size of it that Bradley describes “as large as an aircraft carrier.” It then flew straight up into the sky, “like a shooting star.” It was followed by a smaller craft that flew through about 200 feet over the Sublim-

The neighbors came out quickly to report they saw the same thing, and their cameras were on, but wouldn’t work. As they debriefed their experiences disks of light flew past above the group of them and up into the air.

Charles Bradley says he knows he was sober that night, and his 9 year old son was as well. They

can’t explain what they saw, and didn’t know who to report it to.

They ended up contacting the Mutual Unidentified Flying Object Network (MUFON) who came out two days later And although the Geiger counter readings were negative, MUFON labeled the Bradleys event as an extremely rare “Close Encounter of the 2nd, 3rd and 5th Kind.” (The 2nd Kind due to the electrical interference. The 3rd Kind because even though they saw no beings, they could see

inside the craft. The Fifth Kind was because Brady intentionally prayed for the return each night while watering his lawn, thus indicating a possible telepathic communication.)

“My sole goal of coming out to tell and expose our encounter is because my son and I are the first people ever to report being that close to an UFO orb and being able to see inside it and see how it worked. That’s why I am so gung ho to tell my encounter and promote the image I made

(of the orb),” said Bradley.

Bradley recently created a Facebook page, The Sublimity Close Encounter, and invites all to visit who have an interest in his encounter, and especially to those who may have experienced a UFO encounter themselves. *Charles Bradley is a pseudonym for the interviewed in this article He wishes to keep his identity private as, lets face it, people are prone to judge others in a negative light when reporting events such as these.
