WARRIORS STILL WINNING

Staff Report

el Norte Unified School District administrators and the Del Norte Teachers Association have reached tentative agreements on minor contract issues - but reportedly are no closer to resolving issues of pay increases and benefits, despite two days of mediation with a neutral third party last week.

Meantime, teachers’ association president Marshall Jones oversaw a “strike school” workshop last Saturday, which outlined for teachers their legal grounds should the union choose to strike.

Jones said the earliest that association members could strike would be Jan. 15, 2020.

Guillermo “Memo” Durgin, a union organizer for the region that stretches from San Francisco to Del Norte County, spoke during the workshop. Del Norte has never had a strike before, so Durgin outlined what teachers could and could not do as a result.

Jones said about half of the Del Norte Teachers Association’s members attended Saturday’s meeting.

“We don’t want to strike, but we will if we have to. And we’re going to keep preparing for that,” Jones told The Triplicate.

“It’s very expensive and time consuming, but necessary, because the district doesn’t want to work with us. We’ll be ready when and if (a strike) does happen.”

He added that about 80% of the union’s members would support a strike.

At issue is the school district’s latest, best offer of a 1% guaranteed pay increase, plus a one-time 1% pay increase if the district’s student enrollment doesn’t drop, according to district spokesman Michael Hawkins.

Hawkins said the overall raises offered by the district to teachers for this year is 2%, which includes “a hidden cost to the district that is not shown here from retirement and other benefits.”

That comes out to about a 2.6% cost increase, said Hawkins, to allow for a 2% salary raise for the teachers.

Jones said the teachers’ union disagrees, that in fact the district’s offer really doesn’t amount to that substantial a pay increase.

Hawkins said the tentative agreements are contingent on the two sides reaching agreement on an overall pay and benefits increase.

He said that last Thursday, the two sides agreed to additional days of annual personal illness or injury leave time, and a new share program that allows personal illness or More Teachers on Page A2

el Norte High School may need to add a new trophy case to handle all the hardware this year ’s Warrior football team has been collecting.

After winning a Big Four Conference title and a first-ever North Coast Section crown, Del Norte was presented with a Di-

vision 5-AA Northern California championship plaque from the California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) following the Warriors’ 21-14 victory Friday over King’s Academy High in Sunnyvale.

No Del Norte football team has ever reached the lofty levels this team has achieved. That said, there’s one more mountain to climb.

Undefeated El Monte High

School is coming all the way from east of Los Angeles to Mike Whalen Field this Saturday to take on the 13-1 Warriors, with a Division 5-AA state championship at stake.

Game time is 6 p.m.

The Warriors advanced last Friday despite some uncharacteristic mistakes, errors that set up both of the King’s Academy touchdowns.

Twice, Del Norte fumbled

deep in its own territory. Twice, the private school turned those miscues into game-tying TD passes.

But when required later to move the length of the field, King’s Academy could gain no traction against Del Norte’s defense.

he Crescent City Foursquare Church presented its annual Singing Christmas Tree last weekend as a gift to the

“It’s free. They’ve never charged for it, because they always wanted it just to be a free blessing to the community,” said

Reid Powell, the church’s associate pastor.

For the past 50-some years, the Foursquare Church has conducted the elaborate performance, with 30 people singing choral music atop plat-

They had to cancel the performance due to a lack of male performers. The following year, they faced the same dilemma. Lavonne Powell, one of the original singers, feared the Singing Christmas Tree would become a memory. “I thought, oh, it’s dying, because not everything lasts forever,” Powell said.

She called her son, Reid, who had just moved back to town with his family and was serving as the church’s youth pastor.

He promised to perform in it and managed to persuade a few of his youth group’s male students to join as well.

“We got all these young guys to come start singing, which was wonderful, because it was like fresh blood and they were excited about it,” Lavonne Powell said.

Since then, there’s been no problem bringing in the baritones, tenors and basses. This year features 15 male performers, nearly half of the total singers who fill the tree.

The Singing Christmas Tree began in the late 1960s when Charles and Dorothy Randolf suggested the performance. The idea of singing Christmas trees was gaining popularity throughout the state.

So, the church went to work to bring it to Crescent City. Singers practiced with Orla Barnes, who taught her original pieces and conducted the performance. Others worked on building the tree frame, which is still in use today.

With a bit of creativity, they created a five-platform, half-circle stand and hung cedar branches through chicken wire to make it appear to be a tree.

Back then, the performance was more focused on the vocals rather than the lights. The few lights strung on the branches had pieces of colorful tinfoil wrapped around them

which comes with a CD orchestra and practice CDs for each performer.

This year, however, some of the original singers also performed songs composed by Barnes as a tribute to the 50th anniversary.

Carrie Schmidke, a member of Foursquare, directed the singers.

As with any production, bloopers occur … people dropping percussion instruments or singing the wrong part.

Powell recalled the mishaps with fondness, saying they made for camaraderie and cherished memories.

Five seasoned Christmas tree singers graced the stage this year, two of whom had been involved in the production since the beginning. They said they loved the tradition not only because it’s fun, but also because it blesses a community they hold dear.

“I love it. I love the message. And we do something different almost every year,” said Debbie Kleinsasser, who joined in 1979.

“It just blesses me, and to see the response of the people coming… just the looks on their faces. I just keep coming back.”

tentative agreement also outlined staff meeting notification requirements, planning periods and professional development time.

District human resources director Colleen Parker said last month that if the teachers strike, the Del

Norte schools will remain open, although the teachers will not be paid and would not receive retirement credit for their days on strike.

On Monday, the parties met once again with the mediator.

While the modern performance still focuses on the singing, they’ve added a light show to the entertainment. The tree holds more than 25,000 lights that are manually operated to match the music throughout the performance.

Each year, it takes the congregation nearly a week to put together the massive tree, hang all the decor and string the lights. The result is a spectacular light display.

n Football Continued from Page A1 came into the game averaging 8.1 yards per carry and 23.7 yards per catch. He finished with 4 yards rushing on 10 carries, and 4 catches for 46 yards.

King’s Academy’s Jayden Frazier had rushed for more than 1,000 yards this season.

Del Norte’s defense limited him to 6 carries for -1 yard.

Meanwhile, Del Norte’s rushing attack was not only effective, it was relentless, with the Warriors rushing 52 times for 232 yards.

Levi Cox-Cooley was the workhorse, carrying the ball 29 times for 163 yards. Kobe Mitchell

had 15 carries for 53 yards, joining Cox-Cooley and Chase Blackburn in rushing for more than 1,000 yards this season.

Regardless, the score was tied midway through the windy, rainy fourth quarter, when Del Norte methodically moved down the field. Mitchell’s 21-yard bone-jarring first-down run eventually set up O.J. Calleja’s second oneyard quarterback-sneak touchdown.

And Del Norte had a 21-14 lead with 7:40 left.

King’s Academy never threatened again. The Knights’ Short carried the ball twice in the fourth quarter, losing 5 yards both times. Quarterback Antonio Gonzalez - who had been reasonably effective throwing the ball in the first three quarters -

went 2-for-7 for just 7 yards in the final stanza.

The game ended with Nick Freeman intercepting Gonzalez’s last-ditch heave, the Warriors’ 16th pick of the season.

Afterward, CIF officials presented the honors to Del Norte in the center of the King’s Academy field, as the team gathered with parents and fans for pictures.

Earlier in the day, they had learned that with a victory, the Warriors would be playing at home for the state championship.

Expect old-school football when the El Monte Lions come to town. The Southern California 5-AA champion previously defeated Serra High of San Diego 30-18, never attempting a pass in the process.

(The Warriors attempted

just four against King’s Academy.)

El Monte does play on a grass field - although it’s unlikely the Lions have seen anything like Mike Whalen Field, especially after the several days of heavy rain predicted for this week.

Despite the wet weather, school officials are expecting a packed house for Saturday night’s game. Tickets will be available online at www.gofan.com until 5 p.m. Thursday.

Thereafter, they’ll be available only through the CIF website and at the gate.

The cost will be $12 general admission, $8 for students and senior citizens.

The game will be broadcast live on KPOD 97.9 FM.

ust two weeks into his job as Crescent City’s new chief of police, Richard Griffin was able to secure a Homeland Security grant to acquire a new, non-traditional patrol vehicle.

Working with Kymmie Scott, Del Norte County’s emergency management supervisor, Griffin learned that California Governor ’s Office of Emergency Services funds were still available - but that Griffin had only a couple of days to submit his wish list.

“I looked at what the police department could use a lot, and maybe the fire department,” Griffin told the Crescent City Council on Monday. “I applied for an ATV sideby-side four-seater.

“I was looking for something we could use for the Fourth of July Parade, “SeaCruise,” any big, major events we can’t get our patrol vehicles in there very well and patrol,” Griffin said.

“Also, in an unfortunate event like the tsunami, this would allow us to transverse over anything that is down, be able to get to people and help them out,” he said.

Researching the market, Griffin said patrol ATVs could run as high as $30,000. He found one that fit within the grant’s funding at $12,067.

“I’m not looking for anything extravagant, just something to help deploy my officers where I can, that patrols down at Beachfront Park or at Shoreline, which we have been doing. Also, would be able to hit that beach more, too,” he said.

City Manager Eric

Wier said the Crescent City Fire Department also was enthusiastic about the acquisition of equipment “that they would be able to respond to beach fires or injuries down on the beach that they can’t get to easily. This would be nice equipment for the city to have in its arsenal as well.”

Wier said that after talking with the two departments’ chiefs, once acquired, the ATV would be stored at the Washington Street Station for now. “It has nice access to multiple bay doors, stored in an area to get it out quickly.

“And it’s outside any tsunami runup zone. So, it would be easy to get to in an emergency,” Wier said.

On the other hand, Mayor pro-tem Heidi Kime expressed concern regarding the storage location. “But if you’re responding to beach bonfires, how long is it going to take to get that thing down to the beach?” Kime asked.

Griffin mentioned a long-term plan to store the ATV in the police department’s back lot.

“I want to work with Public Works to build a lean-to on the back side, or a metal carport.

You can get those pretty cheap, for a couple hundred dollars, where wind and rain is not hitting it.

“Storage would initially be at a fire station, but we want it at the police department, where guys could get it early morning and patrol,” Griffin said.

The City Council unanimously approved a change to the general-fund budget to reflect accepting the Homeland Security grant and expenditure for the ATV.

Girls and boys Del Norte basketball off to a hot start Mill Creek T

John Pritchett For The Triplicate

he Del Norte High School girls’ basketball team is off to a strong start, winning its first four games by comfortable margins.

And the Warrior boys’ basketball team squad is doing surprisingly well, too, considering much of that squad is still playing football.

After winning its season opener over Hoopa Valley, 60-34, on Tuesday, the Del Norte girls rolled to the championship at the

Yreka Miner Classic this past weekend, improving its overall record to 4-0.

The Warriors easily won their first-round game Thursday over Modoc, 65-37; outlasted a solid Henley High School team of Klamath Falls, 61-54; then claimed the tournament championship against Brookings-Harbor, 55-46.

The Del Norte girls are coming off their best season in school history, going 24-4 and winning Big Five Conference and Humboldt-Del Norte League championships in the process.

Tuesday, the Warriors will host Hidden Valley High School near Grants Pass, in Thunen Gymnasium.

Meanwhile, the Del Norte boys’ basketball team is off to a 4-1 start despite featuring a roster that includes several players who will be on the junior varsity squad later in the year.

As many as six Warriors who will be playing on the varsity are still involved with the Del Norte football team, which will play for a state championship on Saturday.

Nevertheless, Del Norte

opened the basketball season by crushing Hoopa Valley last Tuesday, 7837. The Warriors then played four games in three days this past weekend at the Yreka event, beating Mount Shasta, 59-50; Yreka, 48-37; and Etna, 70-35.

Grants Pass gave Del Norte its lone loss of the year, 53-39.

The Del Norte boys are led by 2018-19 all-conference selection Omar Banuelos, back for his senior season, and returning starting point guard Damian Dowd.

n Olympics Continued from Page A1 Olympics. She’s being helped by Rob Holmlund of Eureka-based Malex Consulting.

Their latest success is a $10,000 pledge from the Yurok Economic Development Corp.

Vosburg is making similar presentations this week to the Elk Valley Rancheria Tribal Council and the Tolowa Dee-ni’ Nation and Resighini Rancheria.

She said she’s nearing her goal, having already secured several pledges — $15,000 from the Crescent City Council, $10,000 from the Del Norte County Board of Supervisors, $7,500 from the Crescent City Harbor District and $2,500 from the Crescent City Fisherman’s Marketing Association.

That’s $45,000 raised, $14,000 to go.

Vosburg said the public relations push will tell the world about the developing relationship

between Rikuzentakata and Crescent City.

“The thing is that this is an amazing story of that little boat that bobbed across the ocean and landed on our shore, that brought our two communities together,” said Vosburg. “It has been beneficial to both (communities), especially students.

“For NBC to recognize this, nobody dreamed this would come out of the relationship.”

In 2011, Kamome, a 20-foot fishing vessel, was swept from Rikuzentakata across the Pacific Ocean by a tsunami, to be deposited on Crescent City’s South Beach two years later.

Local students researched its history and reached out to Rikuzentakata to return it home.

The bond between the two communities grew into an official sister-city designation.

This week’s latest cultural exchange was funded by a $150,000 grant from the U.S. Embassy. The visit includes workshops for the adults on women leaders in

business, healthcare and government, while the Japanese students will be welcomed at Del Norte High School.

The delegation’s school principals and teachers from Rikuzentakata and nearby Ichinoseki will explore teaching models used by Del Norte County that focus on inclusion and students who have experienced trauma, according to the school district.

To capitalize on the continuing relationship, Holmlund is planning a pre-Olympics public relations outreach, the first of three phases.

Holmlund, who has been specializing in economic and community development for the past 15 years, is acting as the PR project coordinator.

He said he’s contacted public relations and marketing firms to help craft the tale as it unfolds, and to both bring in more national media and to help meet their needs when they get here.

Holmlund said that with this unprecedented opportunity for the region stemming from the

Olympics coverage, the most direct and obvious payoff will be tourism dollars … hotel reservations, spending at restaurants and retail stores.

The secondary impact will be revenue collected by county government through taxes.

Long term, Holmlund is developing a fiveyear plan to secure the additional media attention. He said the initial Olympics story could die within a week -or it could explode. He wants the community to be ready for the latter.

“The Crescent City area should be proud of the remarkable community that exists here. It’s an amazing story to share with the world. People need and want to hear this story. It makes for an authentic, desirable location to travel to.

“People go on vacation more and more to places with a story, not just typical tourist traps. This is our chance to show that Crescent City has a true story worth going to,” Holmlund said.

Another delay for California, Oregon commercial crabbing season T

Staff Report

he opening of the commercial Dungeness crab season from Point Area, California north along the Oregon coast has been delayed again, now at least Dec. 31, following testing that shows crabs are still too low in meat yield in half of the areas along the coast.

The Oregon and California departments of fish and wildlife had announced Nov. 14 that the season would be delayed until Dec. 16 because of the low meat yield.

The ocean commercial Dungeness crab season, in an agreement among Washington, Oregon and California, normally is targeted to open Dec. 1, but can be delayed to ensure a high-quality product to consumers and to avoid wastage of the resource.

Crab quality testing in late November and early December showed that many

areas within the tri-state region still did not meet the criteria for an opening.

The delayed opening will allow for crabs to fill with more meat — 23% for crab north of Cascade Head, Oregon, and 25% for crab south of Cascade Head.

A third round of testing will be conducted sometime in mid-December, with a targeted completion by Dec. 20.

Testing will continue to determine if the season should open on Dec. 31, be further delayed, or be split into separate areas with different opening dates.

In conjunction with the delayed ocean commercial season, the commercial harvest of Dungeness crab in Oregon and California bays is now closed for the remainder of the year.

Recreational crab harvesting is open coastwide in the ocean, bays and estuaries, and on beaches, docks, piers and jetties.

DEAR ABBY Off -topic discussions cause patient to question therapist

DEAR ABBY: I have been working through major anxiety issues with a therapist for the last few months. Sometimes he is very helpful; other times he goes off on tangents, talking about topics I don’t feel the need to discuss (and things that don’t necessarily pertain to me). I find it frustrating, and at times, it makes me angry (although I keep that to myself). How can I keep my therapist on track? Or, how can I break up with him without just ghosting him? -WANTS TO MAKE REAL CHANGES DEAR WANTS: As a patient, you are in a vulnerable position. Many times a patient will feel hesitant to tell a therapist that a line of conversation seems uncomfortable or irrelevant. However, because it is uncomfortable you should NOT let that stop you. Your therapist may explain to you why he is pursuing the issues. You can then accept or reject the explanation. If you continue to feel uncomfortable after that, you can “disengage” via a letter or a phone call.

By Abigail Van Buren Ghosting is the coward’s way out, and I don’t recommend it.

DEAR ABBY: I don’t know how to refer to the man I love. We are both older and have been living together for years. Introducing him as my “boyfriend” makes me feel like a kid in a short-term relationship. I can’t use “husband” because we get our full benefits being single. (If we marry, we could lose half our income.)

I tried “partner,” but people assumed I was speaking of a business partner or a same-sex partner. “Lover” comes across as an extramarital affair. There has to be another word for a couple who lives together for years, like in a marriage, but who cannot marry. -- UNCLASSIFIED IN SOUTH CAROLINA DEAR UNCLASSIFIED: You might refer to the gentleman as your honey, your sweetheart, your loved one or spouse -- or simply by his name. Most of the people with whom you are speaking probably know you live together, and if they are new acquaintances, there is no requirement that you explain your marital or financial

situation.

DEAR ABBY: My husband wants a puppy. He is almost 75 and plays golf four days a week. I’m 70 and work four days a week. I also do lots of volunteer work, which I enjoy.

I not only do not want the responsibility of a pet, but I also feel that a pet is a family member. It will need more attention than my husband has time to give, not to mention the time, effort and consistency needed to train a puppy. Our neighbor has a dog that my sweet hubby can play with every day if he wants to. Please help me. -RETIRED PET LOVER IN LOUISIANA DEAR PET LOVER: If your sweet hubby feels the need to pet and cuddle a puppy, tell him he can do so at the local shelter. Then suggest that if he wants to adopt a dog, it should be an older one from a shelter or rescue group. If he does, you stand a better chance of winding up with a pet that is already trained and housebroken, and the responsibility for educating it won’t fall on your shoulders.

Get in line to reserve Bear Butte Basin

By David Hayes Staff Writer

G

asquet resident Mike Cuthbertson is among an international clientele looking for an out-of-the-ordinary camping experience.

About a decade ago, he learned of the opportunity to stay at a restored fire lookout atop Bear Basin Butte. Its isolation and lack of amenities - running water, power - might scare off the typical weekend camper. Indeed, the U.S. Forest Service recommends getting there by four-wheeldrive vehicle.

It’s about 21 miles as the crow flies from the Smith River National Recreation Area Visitor Center in Gasquet … although it takes more than 2 and a half hours to get there through winding, oldgrowth forest roads with numerous long, washed-out sections.

For Cuthbertson, however, the payoff is worth the effort. “It has a fantastic view. It’s a magical place, up there,” he said.

Bear Basin Butte is a two-for-one rental. The site comes with a cabin that sleeps about eight, and a lookout with a 360-degree view of endless, beautiful wilderness.

Cuthbertson said the cabin comes with an outhouse, a barbecue, books, board games and a whole bunch of other stuff, including some reading material about the facility’s history.

The original lookout, at 14x14 feet, was built in 1924 on Bear Basin Butte. As a precaution against electrocution by lightning, the bed springs were rope instead of wire, and the furniture feet were cupped with glass insulators.

Nevertheless, the lookout was hit by lightning in 1936 and subsequently razed.

The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) had built a second lookout in 1934 at

Old Camp Six, a peak about one mile east. That building sat atop a 30-foot, open-timber tower. It served for many years, until decommissioned as a lookout due to aircraft and increased numbers of forest visitors reporting fires.

In 1991, Camp Six Lookout became eligible for the National Register of Historic Places for its range of history and design qualities.

Linda Serret, acting district ranger of the Six Rivers National Forest and Smith River National Recreation Area, said she’s happy the lookout was

not lost to changing times.

“I think it is amazing that this historic structure was saved from demolition and repurposed to keep history alive, and allow the public to experience it rather that see pictures of what used to be in some history book,” Serret said.

“Our archeologist provided me some information on that fact that it was a member of

the public that was the impetus for saving the structure and who proposed the idea to the Forest Service,” she added.

Inspired by his stay at Robbs Peak Lookout in California’s Eldorado National Forest, Bill Pierson, of Pierson Building Center in Eureka, proposed partnering with the Six Rivers National Forest to provide a “peak experience” for residents and visitors to California’s north coast.

After scouting several possible locations, Bear Basin Butte was chosen. That’s when the idea was hatched to relocate the beleaguered Camp Six lookout.

“I think this is evidence that great ideas and success come when we work together,” Serret said.

No longer eligible for the National Register of Historic Places because it had suffered significant vandalism, the lookout was carefully disassembled and moved to Gasquet. The following year, it was reassembled at Bear Basin Butte and refurbished, retaining as much of the original fabric as possible.

Special footings were drilled deep into the rock to securely anchor the lookout to its new location.

The Pierson group, in keeping with the CCC-era lookout, modified a 1935 Forest Service standard plan for a combination garage/toolshed and constructed what has since been dubbed “Pierson Cabin.”

The cabin and lookout were dedicated on Sept. 12, 1997, with public rentals starting in the 1998 season.

The lookout sits perched on a rocky mountaintop within the Bear Basin Butte Botanical Area on the edge of the Siskiyou Wilderness, with vistas of the rugged Siskiyous to the east, the Kalmiopsis Wilderness to the north, the South Fork Smith River watershed to the south, and the Pacific Ocean to the west.

The Smith River National Recreation Area has more than 75 miles of hiking trails, several of which take hikers to many additional miles of wilderness trails.

The Doe Flat Trailhead is only 3 miles from the lookout.

The trail provides access

to Buck Lake, the Devil’s Punchbowl and the Clear Creek Recreational trail in the Siskiyou Wilderness.

Hiking through the wilderness comes with access to wildlife. The Smith River National Recreation Area is home to more than 300 resident wildlife species, including black bear, coyote, gray fox, deer, mountain lion, bobcat, mountain beaver, opossum and quail.

From the lookout, visitors may spot a migrating bald eagle or a Pacific fisher, a member of the weasel family.

The cabin comes with check-

lists and books to help identify the sightings.

Serret said Bear Basin Butte’s isolation, yet easy access to divergent terrains and ecosystems, are exactly what makes it popular with renters. That’s why booking dates are quickly filled six months in advance. The rental is available only from July 1 to Sept. 30 annually.

“People from all over the country and the world will travel to see amazing places.

I know, as I am one of them.

The people who rent the lookout and cabin are not primarily local folks living in

the area,” she said.

Serret said to use recreation.gov to make a reservation as soon as they open on Jan. 1.

“People in time zones ahead of us have an advantage. But people cancel, so checking recreation.gov often for cancellations may increase chances of securing a reservation,” Serret advised.

That said, anyone trying to making a reservation will have to compete with Cuthbertson.

“I’m going to try get there again this summer,” he said.

“It was just too beautiful.”

Handmade bowls event to raise money for Pacific Pantry D

Staff Report

on’t miss Empty Bowls, a fundraising event scheduled for Dec. 14 from 4-7 p.m. at the Crescent City Cultural Center, 1001 Front St. Empty Bowls is an international project to fight hunger at the community level. The event recruits local artisans to donate handmade bowls, which are then sold at a soup dinner to raise money for local hunger-fighting organizations.

Dinner guests offer a donation and then choose a handmade bowl to take home as a reminder of all the empty bowls in the world. The Del Norte and Tribal Lands Community Food Council is utilizing the model to raise money for the Pacific Pantry and has acquired more than 150 artisan bowls for the fundraiser.

Tickets are $20, which buys all-you-can-eat soup and bread, the choice of a handmade bowl to keep, music,

dessert and a silent auction.

The dinner features a variety of soups and fresh-baked breads from local restaurants and community members, including Seaquake, Ocean 675, Good Harvest and Bellenotte.

Local artisans Harvey Munger, Mike Selfridge, Athena Csutoras, Mike Thompson, HSU Ceramics Lab, Fire Art Studios and others have donated hand-thrown ceramic bowls to support the cause.

Local thrift stores Maybe This Mall, Silva’s Attic, the

Purple Cat and the St. Vincent de Paul Society have pitched in to donate pieces of art they had in store.

Silent-auction items and experiences will include specialty pieces of art, cooking classes, a garden installation, fly-fishing lessons, a kayak trip and lunch with the Crescent City mayor.

Food program coordinator Andrea Lanctot said, “We have had artisans, restaurants, agencies and community members coming forward

who really believe in the mission of Pacific Pantry, and have been working hard to make this event a success. We hope the community will join us in addressing hunger in Del Norte.”

Empty Bowls is part of a multifaceted fundraising campaign to raise by the end of the year $25,000 for Pacific Pantry, Del Norte County’s only choice-food pantry. The Community Food Council has already raised $22,800 in three weeks through donations

from the Caldwell Clan, Wild Rivers Community Foundation, Humboldt Area Foundation, St. Joes Hospital and local donors.

If the event draws 150 people or more, the organization will hit its goal.

Tickets are available at https:// www.eventbrite.com/e/ empty-bowls-fundraising-dinner-tickets-82672578909, at the Family Resource Center of the Redwoods at 494 Pacific Ave., or at the door.

City honors fire chiefs, civilian rescuers and others The enhanced Emergency Services website has updated information on all matters emergency-related.

interim fire chief, they still cover 3½ days every single week,” Gillespie said.

That means every call is answered and 911 can say help is on its way, he said.

“Just last week with the storm system, from 12:30 noon to 11 that night, they responded to 43 calls for service. Over the weekend, there were in excess of 30 calls,” Gillespie said.

“They respond day and night, whether they have duty coverage or not. And for that, they truly do epitomize duty above self, and the legacy Chief Wakefield instilled in this department and on this community.”

Mayor Blake Inscore also provided a copy of the proclamation to Steve Wakefield’s wife, “Fire Mom” Debra Wakefield.

“The award wouldn’t be there if not for you and Steve,” Inscore told her.

Next, Crescent City Police Chief Richard Griffin honored civilians Ty Batson and Doyle Larkin, Sr., for their “service above self” for rescuing the occupants of an overturned vehicle.

Griffin recounted events from Nov. 4, when he was the first to the scene of an overturned vehicle on Pebble Beach near 9th Street and was surprised by what he found.

“There was a mother with a couple of children standing outside the vehicle. As I ran around the side of the vehicle, I saw a guy who was panicked sitting on the ground. I thought he was the victim of the car crash. I was very shocked to learn he wasn’t.

“He was a bystander who ran to that overturned vehicle. He utilized his roommate’s knife. Both of them were able to extricate the victims from the vehicle rollover, get them out of there and to safety,” Griffin

he legacy of former Fire Chief Steve Wakefield was honored during a ceremony prior to the Crescent City Council meeting Monday.

The city had declared Dec. 3, 2018 as Steve Wakefield Day and now utilizes that date as a way to honor others who exemplify Wakefield’s motto of “Service Above Self.”

Six Crescent City Fire and Rescue chiefs and two civilians were honored Monday for their actions.

Interim Fire Chief Gillespie presented the first Service Above Self Proclamation to department chiefs who volunteered to step in to replace Wakefield after he suffered a stroke in 2018.

Honored were battalion chiefs Darrin Short, Ray Rook, James Weiland and Joe Gregorio; division chief Ryan Wakefield, and assistant chief Richard Wier.

Gillespie said that looking back, this small group logged more than 6,000 hours of combined duty coverage.

He said that filling the void left by Wakefield, who served the community for more than 42 years - 23 as fire chief - was a difficult job. Wakefield retired in early 2018 and died on April 26, 2019.

“I think the first stint someone covered was seven days straight. Then, (they) worked into a coverage cycle. From that period of time until I came into town in April, they were covering seven days a week in addition to working full-time jobs, with family obligations and everything that goes with it.

“Since I came in as

He said a nearby concrete barrier was the only thing that saved the car from going down into the ocean.

Such a rescue is not something an everyday citizen will do and it needed recognition, said Griffin.

“I just want to thank you guys for being what citizens should be. You put yourself in danger for someone you didn’t know. You’re definitely deserving of this,” Griffin told them.

In addition, Griffin took the opportunity to say farewell to Crescent City Police

Officer James Wright, who is leaving the department to return home to Federal Heights, Colorado. “He as 32 years of total service, 12 for the Crescent City Police Department.

“He’s been a K9 supervisor, in charge of the Crime Free Multi-Housing Program, a corporal for four and a half years, a mentor and good friend to a lot of people.

“You will always be a part of our family who’s welcome back, and you better well visit,” finished Griffin.

ith winter storms buffeting Del Norte County, residents are gathering their emergency materials and preparing for possible power outages.

But they need look no further than the upgraded Prepare Del Norte website for emergency tips and preparations.

Del Norte County’s Office of Emergency Services launched its updated website Oct. 17, the same day as the Great ShakeOut. The agency’s previous website was not user-friendly, did not offer as many details and was a bit outdated, according to Emergency Services Manager Kymmie Scott.

The website’s design now makes looking through the site more intuitive, with sections dedicated to volunteer opportunities, emergency preparedness and information on natural disasters, said Scott.

It also has a tab labeled “Find Information,” which Scott believes is essential for empowering the community to educate itself on emergency preparedness.

“I’m just really excited to get the… section filled out better,” Scott said. “We focus a lot on tsunamis, but

there are a lot of different things that affect us.”

Emergency Services had begun the framework for the improved website, but paused the process during Scott’s hiring. In late June, she picked up the project and put it into motion with the county’s information technology department.

Now, Scott and the IT department manage the website through Wix.com, a website building platform, where previously they contracted with a web designer to maintain the old site.

This way, they can update the website faster and save the funds used to hire a web designer for other community projects, she said.

The key feature of the new site is a bright red button on the top right corner encouraging people to join the community alert system.

With the system, they can send community-wide or targeted notifications in emergencies.

Scott said she is happy with the improvements, but the website is still a work in progress. She encourages people to give their feedback on the website so she can make informed edits.
