Concert series to begin July 28 By HILARY DORSEY For The Gazette There will be four shows to look forward to in this year’s recently announced “Summer Concerts in the Park” series. One is scheduled for July, two in August, and a final concert in September, with the complete series promising an enjoyable variety of styles. Each of the performances will be held in Cannon Beach’s downtown city park, adjacent to the tennis courts and the Chamber of Commerce building at 2nd and Spruce streets. The concerts are made possible by a City of Cannon Beach community grant. The series is produced by the Tolovana Arts Colony, a registered nonprofit group. The arts colony offers affordable, year-round arts-related education, inspirational and cultural programming to residents and visitors alike. This Sunday’s opening concert will feature Jujuba, a 10-piece Afrobeat and Juju band from Portland. Master talking drum legend Nojeem Lasisi. Jujuba delivers a funky, big-band, danceable style of Nigerian Afrobeat and Juju music. The strength of the 10-piece group revolves around its energetic cohesion among percussion, rhythm and horn sections. The show begins at 5 p.m. Featured Aug. 11 will be
“Cannon Beach: Too Beautiful for Butts” campaign poster Local resident Lolly Champion has been raising money to afix cigarette-butt trash containers to Cannon Beach’s trash bins in an effort to cut down on beach littering.
Pick up the cigs!
By CHELSEA YARNELL For The Gazette
“I’m one of many people who walk the beach every day,” said Lolly Champion of Cannon Beach. “Walking along, I’d see cigarette butts. “Soon, I’d start carrying a bag to pick them up.” Then Champion spotted a trend.
After weekends … especially, holiday weekends … cigarette littering on the beaches increased significantly. So she began doing some research online. Champion learned that cigarette butts are one of the most-polluting items in the world, particularly harmful to the environment when discarded with a filter. “That’s what they find in shorebirds, fish and all kinds of marine
life,” Champion said. She said the City of Cannon Beach started getting complaints about the littering. “That never is a good complaint from tourists or visitors,” she said. Which prompted her to launch local campaign: “Cannon Beach: Too Beautiful for Butts.” Meantime, after additional research and plenty of advice from around the world, Champion came
upon cigarette waste containers that could easily be installed onto the city’s trash bins. And she raised the money for each container herself. “People are so generous,” Champion said. “This community, which I’m so blessed to live in, is very community-oriented. This was done by us - the people who are stewards Continued on page 2

Tickets on sale now for ‘CB Cottage Tour’ By ELAINE TRUCKE For The Gazette Summers on the Oregon coast seem to fly by faster and faster. Who has the time to remember special events and trips? If you haven’t had an opportunity to attend the local “Cannon Beach Cottage Tour” … this is the year! The tour is the annual fundraiser for the Cannon Beach History Center & Museum. Tickets can be purchased on their website or by phone. The “Cannon Beach Cottage Tour” is a weekendlong series of events that include live music, wine tasting, tea tasting and, of course, a tour of homes Sept. 13-15. For more than a decade, the History Center & Museum has welcomed visitors from all over the Pacific Northwest and beyond to tour vintage homes, historic inns and architectural wonders of your favorite coastal town. Over those years, the tour has received accolades from Oregon Home Magazine, Sunset Magazine, The Oregonian, Seattle Times, Oregon Coast Magazine and others. After all, not many home tours take place with the Pacific Ocean in view! Cannon Beach has been a destination community since the late 1800s. The August 1891 issue of the
The Daily Astorian declared the settlement a “sportsman’s paradise,” ideal for rest and recuperation. It remains alluring for its seaside location and unequivocal charm. The weekend of events will kick off Friday, Sept. 13, with a jazz concert featuring Dmitri Matheny. “Dmitri Matheny is a jazz treasure. The lyrical Matheny has impressive chops, but it’s his warmth and soulfulness that win you over.”—All Music Guide. Tickets to this event are $20. On Saturday, Sept. 14, events begin with a luncheon and lecture at Tolovana Hall. A conversation about the evolutions of cottages in Cannon Beach will begin at noon, with doors opening at 11:30 a.m. Janet Eastman of The Oregonian will guide us through a discussion of how homes and cottages at the coast have changed over the years. The coast’s premiere caterer and bakery, Dough Dough Bakery, will prepare the luncheon. Luncheon and lecture tickets are $30. The tour of homes will take place in the Presidential Streets of Cannon Beach on Saturday from noon until 5 p.m. Enjoy wine tasting with Cannon Beach Wine Shack at one of the locations on the tour, plus live music,

The final event of the weekend is an English-style garden tea at Tolovana Hall
on Sunday, Sept. 15. Attendees will enjoy tea with real teacups and saucers, and tea from Beach House Teas. The presentation this year will be given by Master Gardener Jennifer Bell, on how to plant with indigenous plants. Scones, cucumber sandwiches and other delectable treats prepared by Dough Dough
Bakery will be sitting on beautiful china displays at each table. Tickets are $25. The cottage tour is the Cannon Beach History Center & Museum’s annual fundraiser, put on lovingly by staff and volunteers for the past 16 years. The event provides 20% of the organization’s annual income, allowing it to remain a free
museum. You can purchase tickets on the website or by calling 503-436-9301. Many of these events sell out, so make your plans as soon as you can. For more information, contact the Cannon Beach History Center & Museum at 503-436-9301, email info@cbhistory.org, or visit http://www.cbhistory.org/.

of this marvelous place.” Local residents donated enough money to purchase 34 containers. Twenty-four already have been installed by Coaster Construction, on the north end of town. By the end of the campaign, Champion hopes to have 65 containers placed throughout the Cannon Beach. Now, her campaign’s focus shifts to education. Champion
Custom Homes & Remodels
said it takes six to 10 months to teach people to throw their cigarette butts into a container, rather than tossing them on the sand. Right now, she’s cleaning out each container by herself, then sending the cigarette butts back to their manufacturers through a program called “Terracycle.” “Manufacturers need to be responsible for the product that is not utilized,” said Champion. “Every manufacturer
is being (made) much more aware of this.” Terracycle’s website says that once collected, the cigarettes and packaging are separated by composition and melted into hard plastic, which can be remolded to make new, recycled industrial products such as plastic pallets. The ash and tobacco are separated out and composted through a specialized process. Just ask Lolly Champion.

New office manager, July Fourth Book Sale and a discussion of Albright’s “Fascism” By JOSEPH BERNT For The Gazette New Office Manager, July Fourth Book Sale and Discussion of Albright’s “Fascism” New faces have been greeting library members, volunteers and patrons this summer … and contributing to successful events and programs at the Cannon Beach Library. For two weeks, Jennifer Dixon — newly hired office manager and the library’s only paid employee — is learning how volunteers staff the front desk, check out and reshelve books, organize events, catalog new acquisitions, provide community information to new residents and visitors, and maintain computer services for their use. Dixon is learning whom to ask for information and how to support the work of library members and volunteers. A 2005 Michigan State graduate, she brings 15 years of professional experience in nonprofit public service, tourism, museums and restaurants. A resident of Cannon Beach since 2015 and lead bartender at The Bistro, she appreciates our community and knows many of its residents and second-home owners. Before moving to Cannon Beach, Dixon — as curator and museum director for the Yellowstone Historic Center in West Yellowstone, Montana — she developed skills applicable to activities at the

Cannon Beach Library. Dixon works Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Be sure to meet her when next in the library. July 4 Book Sale The library’s traditional “July Fourth Book Sale” has become a major fundraising event. This past holiday sale earned nearly $10,000, a record amount for funding the purchase of new books, newspaper subscriptions and video materials. Even though several veterans of past “July Fourth Book Sales” were out of town or recuperating from recent health problems, this year’s record success occurred because 60 library volunteers donated 476 hours of service during the sale’s four days. Several members of the library board worked for weeks planning this sale, and organizing and moving books from storage. This event proved so successful because Karen French agreed to serve as interim treasurer and unofficial office and promotions manager for the sale. Success also came because Janet Bates applied her past experience to recruiting volunteers and sweating the details of the sale, with logistical help from Amy Jones. And Coaster Construction again donated employees and a large truck to move tons of books to the library the afternoon before the sale. And let’s not forget Sandi

Lundy, who again supplied volunteers with gourmet sandwiches. Through all this sale preparation, Claire Landrum managed to recruit volunteers to staff the front desk, keeping the library functioning before and after this successful fundraiser. Also amazing are the hundreds of residents and visitors to the North Coast who donate the essential ingredient — thousands of gently read books that attract ever more readers to this July 4 event. Talking About Books Every third Wednesday evening each month Cannon Beach Reads draws eight to 20 readers together at the library to discuss important books: current bestsellers

and classic titles, fiction and nonfiction, and memoirs and biographies. On Aug. 21, members of Cannon Beach Reads, led by Arthur Broten, will discuss “A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man,” James Joyce’s revolutionary autobiographical novel, published in 1916. What made “A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man” revolutionary and placed Joyce in the forefront of 20th-century literature was his development of “stream of consciousness” as a realistic narrative technique that allowed jumbled inner thoughts, sensitivities and reactions to reveal a character without an all-knowing author’s intrusive description,
judgment or evaluation. Stream-of-consciousness narration brought hyperrealism to what 19th-century novelists considered naturalistic fiction, and remains a mainstay of contemporary fiction and new journalism since the 1960s. Think William Faulkner’s “The Sound and the Fury,” Ken Kesey’s “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest,” Marcel Proust’s “Remembrances of Things Past,” Hunter Thompson’s “Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas,” Jack Kerouac’s “On the Road,” William Burroughs’s “Naked Lunch,” J. D. Salinger’s “The Catcher in the Rye,” Virginia Woolf’s “To the Lighthouse,” Truman Capote’s “In Cold Blood,” or Tom Wolfe’s “The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test.” If you haven’t participated in Cannon Beach Reads discussions, I assure you these are hardly dull academic gatherings. Each participant discusses the book from his or her experience. Discussions move among comic, tearful, admiring and dismissive comments, but always are based in personal experience. At July’s discussion of Madeleine Albright’s “Fascism: A Warning,” Marjorie MacQueen, who led the discussion, and I argued whether this first woman to serve as U.S. secretary of state appreciated why people living in fly-over zones of rural America could reasonably support a presidential candidate who
exhibited fascistic attitudes. To me, every aspect of Albright’s elite family, educational and professional backgrounds distanced her from the views and experiences of working-class Americans living in small towns with closed mills, plants offshored in response to free-trade agreements, and tax incentives advocated by Republican and Democratic administrations since the 1960s. Marjorie MacQueen clearly admires Albright, and we both felt she had published a well-written, readable analysis of fascism based on her diplomatic experience during the Clinton administration. My point was that Albright wasn’t capable, because of her life experience, of understanding the support rural Democrats provided The Donald. Neither of us changed the other’s viewpoint, but our differing views of Albright’s critique went some distance in explaining why extreme economic inequalities have so divided our politics, country and world. Discussions based on personal reactions to important books offer opportunities to appreciate our differences through civil discourse. Consider sampling conversations … and Sandi Lundy’s cookies … as Cannon Beach Reads finishes this year’s readings and selects books for next year’s discussion.
