County changes coming in 2020

Staff Report

regon State Police troopers and emergency personnel responded at 9:10 Monday morning to the report of a single-vehicle accident on Highway Route 255, known as the Carpenterville Highway, near milepost 361 between Brookings and Gold Beach. Officials said a preliminary investigation determined that a Ford F350 truck driven by Chester “Paul” Mayer, 50, of Coos Bay was northbound on Highway 255 when it failed

to negotiate a curve, crossed the southbound lane and left the roadway. Mayer sustained fatal injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene. Mayer was last seen leaving a residence in Brookings on Saturday evening. He was reported as a missing person to the Brookings Police Department on Sunday. The state patrol was assisted at the accident scene by the Curry County Sheriff’s Office, Brookings Police Department, Brookings Fire Department, Cal-Ore Ambulance, and the Oregon Department of Transportation.

Crab season is on

he Board of Curry County Commissioners is looking ahead to a handful of customer service changes with the beginning of 2020. The biggest change will be new office hours, and a restructured Community Development Department. After some controversy earlier this fall, the commissioners set standard operating hours for all departments that have public traffic, and those departments that support county department operations. In November, the board unanimously agreed that county offices will be open to the public Monday through Friday, from 8:30 a.m.-5 p.m. Offices will close for lunch, but will be available by special appointment if the public cannot meet during regular business hours. The new hours take effect Jan 1. Additionally, after years of the county’s two main development departments being in separate locations, the Planning Department and the Building Safety Department have merged into one office space and a shared reception counter. The merged space provides for a customer to meet with both permitting divisions to discuss projects. And, said a county spokesperson, the new location allows a cost savings because of the shared reception staff. In other cost-saving

onarchs from Brookings are making a big impression, as the butterflies are being counted in overwintering areas of California. The Brookings Oregon Monarch Advocates (BOMA) raise butterflies from eggs found in deliberately planted monarch butterfly “waystation” gardens. The eggs hatch into caterpillars, form cocoons, then emerge as monarch butterflies, which are tagged before being released. Of the 4,224 monarchs tagged and released in the Pacific Northwest, 2,901 (88.8%) were the offspring of Ovaltine, a butterfly that laid her eggs last July in Holly Beyer’s waystation in Brookings, according

to a Dec. 13 Facebook post on Monarch Butterflies in the Pacific Northwest. Of the tags recovered so far this year, 74% originated from the Brookings brood stock. The endangered butterflies have been closely monitored by the Pacific Northwest group since 2012. This is the second-highest yearly number since they began. “Without Ovaltine and Holly, we would have tagged only 1,323 monarchs in the (Pacific Northwest) this year, which would have been the lowest total since we began tagging,” according to the post. One of Beyer’s tagged male butterflies, G0927, was found at the Presidio park in San Francisco on Dec. 16, resting on a car More Butterflies on Page A4

Looking Ahead: The future for SWOCC Staff Report In July, citizens gathered at the Southwestern Oregon Community College (SWOCC) satellite campus in Brookings to voice their concerns about the future of the campus. The Pilot attended that public meeting. The following is a conversation with SWOCC communications administrator Anne Farrell-Matthews about what has occurred since that meeting to address the public’s concerns. The Pilot: During the SWOCC board meeting at the Curry campus in July, concerns were raised about declining enrollment, the college’s operating costs, and how tax money supporting the college is spent. The board chair said the issues would be addressed during an upcoming workshop. Has that workshop been held? What was the outcome?

Anne Farrell-Matthews: The college’s board of education discussed this at its September meeting. Board members decided that based upon ongoing meetings between Curry Executive Dean Doug Bunn and concerned citizens, that a work session wasn’t needed. Instead, Curry President Patty Scott and staff members met with the Curry County commissioners and their staff on Oct. 3. The Pilot: During the July meeting, Curry County Commissioner Sue Gold suggested that the board needed to review a plan to lower the college’s current tax rate, offer additional courses to seniors, and develop medical and business internships to attract more students. What action by SWOCC and the board has been taken on Gold’s request? Farrell-Matthews: SWOCC launches its annual budget process each spring.

During that time, the budget committee and board of education discuss anticipated revenues and expenses, new program start-ups and other issues. At that time, the board of education makes tax rate decisions. As to lifelong learning opportunities for seniors, SWOCC’s instructional leaders are working on additional classes for seniors. Class topics are driven by residents’ requests, and opportunities to hire part-time instructors who want to teach community classes. The new popular lecture series “SWOCC and Beyond” started as a result of the July board meeting and continued discussions with individuals. SWOCC has partnered with businesses and organizations in Brookings and Gold Beach to offer internships for more than 20 years. The college is always looking to add more opportunities for students to gain work experience. Executive Dean Doug Bunn has met over the past few months with employers who might be interested. The Pilot: During the July meeting, Curry County Commissioner Chris Paasch urged the board to develop additional vocational courses at the Curry campus. What action has SWOCC and the board taken on that request?

Community members gathered at a July meeting to voice their concerns about operations at the Southwestern Oregon Community College’s campus in Brookings. Photo by Jeremy C. Ruark. Farrell-Matthews: Each year, the college reviews labor market information for the district to determine where new programming would be beneficial. Over the past few years, in listening to community partners’ perceived labor needs and analyzing labor market trends, the college has identified a need for vocational courses in welding, criminal justice, paramedicine and healthcare fields. Creation of new programs often requires an investment in equipment and new staff. For welding, the college is exploring a partnership with

Brookings-Harbor High School. We hope through this partnership to generate a cost-effective way to offer welding courses through shared facilities after regular school hours, and provide entry-level classes to high school students. The college plans to offer criminal justice, paramedicine, nursing and medical assisting courses through a combination of onsite and distance education at the Curry campus. Face-to-face courses offered at the Curry campus are dependent on a combination of factors: the number of students who need the courses to complete a degree, whether a course is offered via distance across the district, and the availability of qualified instructors in specific fields. SWOCC aims to be student-centered. Faculty and staff at both campuses collaborate to work with all students. This helps ensure students can access all classes required in their career path based on their needs and schedules, and complete their studies in a timely manner through courses offered throughout the district. In some cases, the cost of starting a new program ver-

sus the actual labor need is not proportionate. There may not be enough job openings forecast in the next five to 10 years to support the expense of a new program start-up. In other instances, such as for construction laborers, a college degree program is not necessary for entry into the field. The college continually reviews Oregon Employment Department job projections for this region. At the same time, the Office of Instruction continues to review the many programs that have been suggested in conversations with Curry residents to determine labor market viability. Curry Campus Executive Dean Doug Bunn continues to meet with potential industry partners. The most enthusiastic response we have received has been from the healthcare industry, and labor market data supports ongoing investment in those programs. In response, the college has increased enrollment in its nursing program in Curry, and increased classes for entry-level certified nursing assistants.

Foxglove opens a (nonalcoholic) elixir bar Linda Pinkham Staff Writer Now, you can enjoy a “Happy Buzz” - a sunny, uplifting, pine pollen drink. Or a “Queen of Hearts” - a beet root latte. Or maybe an “Afternoon Delight” - an interesting cocoa and mushroom blend. These are but a few of the exotic flavors offered at a nonalcoholic tonic and elixir beverage bar just opened inside Foxglove Wellness and Apothecary, at 511 Fern Ave. in Brookings. Six bar stools at the counter, and a cozy seating area with a love seat and chairs, invite patrons to relax and rejuvenate with herbal teas and customized beverages. The drinks contain ingredients with properties that range from aphrodisiacs to energy producing, calming, warming or digestive aids. The new elixir bar allows customers to try various products and combinations to see whether it improves how they feel. “I wanted to create a lowkey place to hang out that’s not the bar scene,” said shop owner Chelle Fraser. “A popular drink in the alternative drink scene is made with butterfly pea, which turns the drink blue. Then, if you add citrus to it, the drink turns purple. It’s a fun and colorful drink.” As the elixir bar catches on, Fraser hopes to extend hours on Thursday through Satur-

day, perhaps adding poetry or music some evenings. The herbal shop itself will be three years old in February. Fraser moved the entire business from Reno, Nevada, even to the extent of digging up her herb garden, now transplanted in Brookings. Bitters The Pilot first learned about Foxglove at a Live Culture Coast event in October, where Fraser served samples of bitters mixed with carbonated water. Just a few drops added to the fizzing water made a satisfying, grown-up drink. No alcohol. “As a culture, Americans are really not keen on a bitter taste,” Fraser said. “They’re not used to it. They’re used to sweet, salty, savory. Bitter is one of our five tastes, but we don’t really cater to it.” Elixir bar flavors range from vanilla (an aphrodisiac and calming), to Juniper (kind of tastes like gin and is a toning astringent for the body). Chocolate bitters are not sweet, but energizing. Bitter melon is traditionally used for reducing blood sugar, and good for diabetes. “The key purpose of bitters is to aid in the processing of digestion and breaking down of food,” said Fraser. “If you eat too much at a meal and feel bloated and uncomfortable, a shot of bitters will totally take care of it. “It helps to speed up the digestion. Gentian root, orange and grapefruit are traditional

bitters for aiding in digestion.” Some of the bitters are known for having healing properties. “Cherry bark is good for coughs, colds, sinuses and any kind of heavy, thick congestion, scratchiness. Oregon grape root is really good for urinary tract issues, gallstones, bladder infections.” Available warming flavors include clove, cinnamon and star anise. “When you talk about digestion, our key combustion is a big oven, and these warm and heat up that digestion.” Often, compatible flavors are combined, like a drop of cloves with orange bitters. Or chocolate, with vanilla and orange bitters. All of the bitters flavors are infused at Foxglove, available in 2- and 4-ounce sizes. But the bitters are just a fraction of what is available at the store. Herbs, salves, lotions and potions Nearly 200 medicinal herbs fill the shelves behind the bar - jars of birch bark powder, angelica, myrrh, dragon’s blood, devil’s claw, mandrake root, milk thistle seed powder, Oregon grape root, Egyptian blue lotus. Plus, plenty of other items probably not found in your home’s medicine or spice cabinet. Some of the herbs come from Fraser’s garden. Others are wild-crafted locally or carefully selected from organic sources.

Behind them are shelves lined with jars containing 200 herbs the store stocks and bottles of bitters the store infuses. Photo by Linda Pinkham. The store’s usnea tincture is made from a lichen that’s widely available locally and commonly known as beard lichen. Fraser said it’s a powerful antibiotic, but also used for weight loss, fevers and wounds. And if you don’t know which herbal remedies you need or want to try, the store offers numerous books as well as consultations. One of the shop’s customer favorites is concocting custom fragrances, lotions, bath salts and salves. Imagine you’re the next Giorgio Armani or Coco Chanel, as you create your own personal fragrance out of naturally sourced,

wild-crafted, organic or local ingredients. To create that custom special fragrance, customers sit at the bar and try various combinations a drop at a time, until they find one they want to have custom blended. Maybe try something like a hint of vanilla and orange, with a splash of carnation? The shop is a fun place to book private classes and parties, where each member of the group can make their own healing salves or bath salts to take home or give away as gifts. All while enjoying a relaxing beverage, good company, and learning about healing and soothing proper-

ties of plants. You can find supplements, leather-bound blank journals, candles, crystals, readymade scents like Brookings Bay Moon signature scent, or Gold Beach scrub soap, or Chetco gold soap, lip balms, essential oils, gemstones and crystals, metaphysical supplies, natural bath sponges and brushes. The soaps are Fraser’s recipes custom made for her by a company. The tiny shop is packed with many curious items. Fraser is more than happy to share her knowledge of them with you.

Central Curry School District board reviews reports about the changing culture of the school, evidenced by its dedication to athletic teams, the increase in Mathlete and Knowledge Bowl participation, and the variety of students’ community service projects. District Superintendent Tim Wilson announced the addition of several em-

ployees over the past two months, including Matt Ahearn (attendance advocate), Susan Giovannetti, Gretchen Anthony, Mary Lee and Perry Kishaba (mentor, teacher/coach), Debra Watson (Talented and Gifted Program coordinator), MacKenzee Lee (webmaster), Ty Wardell (JV boys’ basketball coach),

Michelle Pearce (high school softball coach) and Karla Metzger (teacher aide). Wilson also announced the retirement of teacher aide and employee wellness coordinator Mary Breen. The district’s enrollment of 476 students (328 at Riley Creek and 148 at Gold Beach High School) is down from

n SWOCC

Curry campus offers 16 face-to-face credit classes this fall, ranging from art, anthropology, lab sciences, math/algebra, and computer skills to nursing, sociology, and writing composition. Curry staff determine which classes to offer based on availability of instructors, student demand and community need. The college also offers GED and other Adult Basic Education courses. In addition, the college offers online courses to Curry students, and these do tend to fill quickly because of the flexibility they offer. The majority of students enrolled at both of the college’s campuses attend parttime. Many are working and find that they are better able to manage online courses with busy schedules and families. The Pilot: How many full- and part-time instructors and administrators are employed at the Curry campus, and what is the Curry campus’s annual budget? Farrell-Matthews: The Curry campus has an executive dean, assistant director, two first-stop representatives (one is three-quarter-time), an academic advisor, a quarter-time IT technician, and a facilities technician. The campus employs three fulltime faculty members and 25 part-time instructors. The Pilot: What is the

plan to boost enrollment and make the Curry campus fit more of the needs of the local area? Farrell-Matthews: The Curry campus will continue to serve the needs of the local area through a sustained focus on programs related to healthcare, education, public safety, digital design technology, and degree transfer programs. Using broadcast technology, the college anticipates being able to expand program access to Curry residents. It also will result in the college canceling fewer courses on the Curry campus due to low enrollment. Staff continues to collaborate with the high schools in Brookings, Gold Beach and Port Orford to bring students

to the Curry campus. The college also works to outreach to high school students about dual-enrollment opportunities, in which they can take college classes. Students can enroll in these classes at no charge to local families and get a jump on college and save money. The college continues to market to residents through traditional print media, broadcast media, its website and social media to communicate with students in the target demographic areas.

concerns raised by audience members during the July meeting that Brookings and Gold Beach needed to be better represented on the SWOCC board. What action has SWOCC and the board taken on that request? Farrell-Matthews: The college board of education seats are elected positions. They are open to potential candidates from Brookings and Gold Beach every two years. The next election for board seats is in May 2021. The Pilot: What is the current student population at the SWOCC Curry campus? Is that up or down compared to the last few years, and why? Farrell-Matthews: SWOCC currently has 170 Curry County students taking credit classes for the 2019-20 school year. This includes some students who are attending in Coos Bay and students who take classes online. Curry campus full-time equivalent enrollment has increased 5% over last year.

Garfield® by Jim Davis

Marmaduke ® by Brad Anderson

DEAR ABBY Bullied sister counts days until she leaves for college DEAR ABBY: I have a very toxic relationship with my older sister. I still live at home, although I’ll be leaving for college in a few years. Abby, she has been emotionally abusing me for years. It got so bad at one point that I considered suicide. I don’t believe I would ever go through with it, but it scared me. She makes sarcastic comments about anything from my weight to what I want as my career. My parents never do anything about it. I try to avoid her, but it’s impossible because of the close living quarters. I don’t know how to stop her. She has said she would stop before, but she doesn’t, so I no longer believe she’s sincere when she occasionally apologizes. -- BULLIED IN MY OWN HOUSE DEAR BULLIED: Suicide is not the answer. Face it. Your sister is an unhappy individual who enjoys belittling others. She may do it because she’s frustrated with her own life, or simply because she can. The way to deal with people like her -- and there are many -- is to change the way you react to them. There is a saying

By Abigail Van Buren that applies here: “Just because a jackass brays doesn’t mean you have to take it to heart.” The next time your sister makes a sarcastic comment, repeat that “mantra” to yourself and it may lessen the sting she’s trying to inflict. Remember, you won’t always have to live with her. In the future, she may wonder why the two of you aren’t close. When she asks that question -- and she may -- feel free to tell her. DEAR ABBY: A few months ago, a friend asked me to be a groomsman in his wedding, which will take place a year from now. I accepted and forgot to write down the date. Weeks later, three other friends invited me on a two-week cruise of the Baltics. I accepted and proceeded to contribute to the pre-booking and group excursion fees, etc. These funds are not refundable. I realized later that the dates overlap. Both the groom and cruise people are close friends from separate groups. My personal cost at this point is $4,100. What do you recommend I do? -- ALL BOOKED UP IN MINNESOTA DEAR ALL BOOKED: Do the honorable thing and ex-

plain to your friends that when they invited you on that Baltic vacation you had already committed to being a groomsman in someone’s wedding. Then ask if they can line someone else up to take your place. As to the money you have shelled out, suggest that the person who replaces you reimburse you some or all of the dough, and then keep your fingers crossed. DEAR ABBY: I have a friend whose 30-year-old son died suddenly from a brain stem tumor. On the anniversary of his death, I send her a “thinking of you” card to let her know that she is, indeed, in my thoughts. The sixth anniversary of his death is approaching, and I’m wondering if I should stop doing this. I’m afraid it may cause her more pain than comfort. -- WELL-MEANING IN THE WEST DEAR WELL-MEANING: Discuss this with your friend in advance, and ask her that question. I doubt that sending a card would be hurtful. She will always know he died on that day, and she may find it comforting to know that you not only remember it, too, but also want to reach out to her.

Recently, the commissioners voted to adopt new financial software so departments can more accurately prepare their budgets and track expenses.

So why did I watch? I wanted to see just how far this could go, an all-too-unsettling likeness to the times we’re in. Mass shootings. Sharp divides. A loss of moral compass. A world spinning out of control. Panic, craziness and a government bent on dominion. I watch hoping that “The Purge” is not a harbinger of things to come. I went to the theatre to see “It’s a Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood.” I couldn’t help but think, what culture produced a show like Mister Rogers and what culture

could create a thing like “The Purge”? I hearkened for a gentler time, an innocence, a sweetness. I remembered going to school as a child and never dreaming that what happens now could ever happen. So, watch it if you must. But beware, take care, be watchful that the thing that you hate does not take you and make you what it is. “The Purge” can happen only if you let it. Don’t.

Sugar says she indeed had a wonderful life

their house knows that they are either the hunter or the hunted. For some, what starts out as one purge leads to a hunger for the next. They spend all year getting ready for it. The atmosphere is like a New Orleans Carnival. The streets fill with roaming mobs armed with guns, knives, bats. Mayhem breaks out. The day after, sirens fill the air. Ambulances scream down the streets picking up the injured. NFFA trucks come in with body bags to scoop up the dead. I told you not to watch.

Letter to the editor

year, the purge gets more violent, more people get killed. No one knows whom to trust, sometimes not even their spouse. Excitement for the purge spreads like an epidemic. People start looking forward to it. Cameras are positioned all over the city, on every building. At purge headquarters, the government has people stationed in front of screens monitoring everything that’s going on. People barricade themselves inside their homes. Others go out to join the purge. Anyone who leaves

There’s a show on television called “The Purge.” Don’t watch it. (Now you will.) It’s about a time in the future when the government, under the auspices of the NFFA (New Founding Fathers of America) decides that to calm social unrest, relieve citizen frustration and give a suppressed populace a release valve, for 12 hours once a year everyone is allowed to commit any crime they wish - robbery, assault, even murder.

The first year it’s tried, people are reluctant to start. So, the government releases criminals, bus them into the inner city and give them free reign. They unleash terror. People react. Soon, the purge starts. People one by one begin joining in. And that’s how it all began. Each year, the purge attracts more people … some driven by vengeance, others driven by pent-up anger. Some do it for money. People take contracts out on one another. Bounties are placed on people and put up on social networks. Every
