Waterfall forms co-op to expand mental health services

By DAVID RUPKALVIS The World

Just one day after Bay Area Hospital announced it was closing its behavioral health department, Waterfall Community Health Center said it was working to meet the growing need for mental health counseling in the community.

Lance Nelson, chief innova-

tion office with Waterfall, said Waterfall was working to create a mental health cooperative model in an effort to coordinate care and hopefully bring new providers to the community.

Nelson said the announcement was not a direct result of Bay Area Hospital’s decision, but when the hospital made its announcement, Waterfall sped

up plans to unite mental health providers in the community.

“Although Waterfall has always been in the business of searching for ways to provide better mental health care for Coos County, recent decisions impacting the delivery of mental health services in our area of service have solidified our resolve to do more,” Nelson said.

Waterfall is bringing on Dr. Robert Gerber, the current medical director of Bay Area Hospital’s Acute Psychiatric Unit.

Gerber will be transitioning to become the full-time psychiatry program manager at Waterfall, and his No. 1 priority will be to bring more psychiatric providers into the co-op.

“We had offered him a part-

time contract two weeks ago,” Nelson said. “He didn’t learn about this until about two hours before the rest of us.”

Nelson said when Gerber informed Waterfall that he would be available full-time, they quickly changed plans, hiring Gerber to lead the co-op effort.

Service honors those who gave the ultimate sacrifice

During A Memorial Day ceremony at Ocean View Memory Gardens, Mike Huffman Jr. made it a point to remember the most recent men and women who gave their all while serving the United States.

“The 13 U.S. service members who died last year in Afghanistan will not be the last to make such a sacrifice,” Huffman said.

Huffman, the exalted ruler of the Elks Lodge, then read the 13 names and gave information about each person who died while the U.S. was trying to evacuate U.S. residents and Afghanis who assisted during the 20-year conflict.

• Marine Corps Lance Cpl. David Espinoza, 20, of Rio Bravo, Tex. • Marine Corps Sgt. Nicole Gee, 23, of Roseville, Calif.

• Marine Corps Staff Sgt. Darin Taylor Hoover, 31, of Utah • Army Staff Sgt. Ryan Knauss, 23, of Corryton, Tenn.

• Marine Corps Cpl. Hunter Lopez, 22, of Indio, Calif.

• Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Rylee

McCollum, 20, Jackson, Wyo. • Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Dylan R. Merola, 20, of Rancho Cucamonga, Calif.

• Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Kareem Nikoui, 20, of Norco, Calif.

• Marine Corps Cpl. Daegan William-Tyeler Page, 23, of Omaha • Marine Corps Sgt. Johanny Rosario, 25, Lawrence, Mass.

• Marine Corps Cpl. Humberto Sanchez, 22, Logansport, Ind. • Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Jared Schmitz, 20, of Wentzville, Mo. • Navy Hospital Corpsman Max Soviak, 22, of Berlin Heights, Ohio “Their mission was noble,” Huffman said. “Not only are the diverse men and women forever in our hearts, for those who knew them, they are forever young.”

Huffman said the 13 service members in Afghanistan were a sobering reminder of the meaning of Memorial Day, a time set aside to remember and honor those who have their lives for the United States.

“From the American Revolution to the Global War on Terror, more than 1 million Americans made the ultimate sacrifice,”

Huffman said. “This is why we are gathered here today. We are also remembering the young men and women who continue to step up to serve and, if needed, die for our country."

Huffman was joined by dozens of veterans representing different service organizations in the area.

Dozens of U.S. flags were proudly held and a team gave a proper military gun salute before a lone bugler played Taps in honor of those lost.

Huffman said for those still around, the mission is ongoing.

“We must share the legacy and tell the story of the men and women who aren’t here,” He said. “There are many things we can do to care of the heroes, the first and foremost is to take care of their loved ones.”

Huffman said Memorial Day remains a somber day for many, even as others celebrate the beginning of summer.

“Memorial Day is not about picnics or parades,” he said.

“Memorial Day is about gratitude and remembrance. It is to remember those who made our

The council was scheduled to learn about the results of the study during executive session.

Later in the meeting, City Administrator David Milliron said due to the findings, the city could not even remove a fallen tree from a trail without the Tribe’s permission.

“Obviously, you’re going to hear in executive session the archaeological study results, and that may frustrate folks,” Milliron said. “They are confidential.

We cannot share them, and folks cannot see them. It’s not a choice we have. We cannot even address a tree until we have an agreement in place for the Tribe.”

The council also learned about progress being made on some of

the goals the council set in 2021.

The two-year set of goals gives city staff a priority of things to work on. The goals are revamped every two years based on the new council’s plans.

The first goal the council set was to Identify and secure additional revenues for the long-term sustainability of the city. It then set several specific strategies for the staff to prioritize.

Milliron went issue by issue to let the council know what has been done, is being done and is planned for each council strategy6.

Huffman closed the ceremony with a quote from Gen. George S. Patton, Jr.

“It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived.”

Archaeological study halts any work at Ferry Road

By DAVID RUPKALVIS The World

An archeological study of Ferry Road Park has been completed, but the results will never be released to the public.

North Bend Public Works Director Ralph Dunham told the city council the results are required to remain confidential.

While Dunham did not release details, he implied that archaeologically sensitive sites were found in the park.

“We are wishing to open a dialogue with the Confederated Tribe about some of the issues where archaeological permits need to met that make it difficult to operate regular business,” Dunham said.

“Our hope is that by centralizing as many providers as possible into a sort of ‘mental health hub’ will make services more efficient and increase provider satisfaction as they gain more colleagues to rely on for consultation and shared responsibilities,” Gerber said.

“Part of the thing we hear from psychiatry providers is in small communities like this, there’s not a lot of opportunity to collaborate,” Nelson said. “So if we create this central hub, that will be an opportunity to attract providers. We’re trying to make it more attractive to people to come out.”

Beginning July 1, the co-op will open at the Waterfall clinic in North Bend, although services

will be available at all Waterfall offices.

“This is a short-term solution to give us about a year, and we’ll probably need to expand,” Nelson said. “The next 12 to 18 months, we’ll keep this in our facility, but we’ll need to find some office space.”

Nelson said the effort to expand services in the community is due to a huge need for mental health services.

“The need has always been great,” he said. “All

the agencies that provide mental health services are always looking for providers because the need is more than we can handle.”

On average, Nelson said it takes a new patient four to six weeks to see a therapist and four to six month to see a psychiatrist in Coos County.

“I have a need for four mental health counselors that I’ve had open for years,” Nelson said. “I’m constantly recruiting providers. The need is great.

Milliron said the staff is starting to compile a list of projects needed. The list will be included in the 2024 budget and moving forward as the city works to complete goals. Milliron said a study to compile the list will kick off in September.

Explore funding options for pool This goal has been completed, Milliron said.

“The council has met its commitment back to the public, which was to find the money,” the city administrator explained.

“Most recently, you all moved an additional half a million from the community center to the pool. That pool project is moving forward. We still anticipate the pool to be open in October of this year.

Milliron said the city re-advertised the aquatics director position and received several new applications. The goal is to hire someone before the pool opens, so they can lead the way.

Funding and implement road projects “We’ve done a lot of paving since this goal was put in place, but that was accomplished because we took a lot of years to stockpile money to get these projects done,” Milliron said. “We have about $60-plus million of additional needs” Police capital improvement The city administrator said North Bend used COVID funds for pursuit vehicles, which has helped reduce maintenance costs.

The city also transferred dispatch services to Coos Bay. “Overall, I will say if you look at the police department budget and you look at historical budgets, there’s actually a reduc-

tion,” Milliron said. “We held to the staff side of it, which was to make sure we realize savings.”

Fire Department North Bend has made significant progress in the fire department, with the council agreeing to purchase a new fire engine. The city also used grant funding to purchase rapid-response vehicles, which will save wear and tear by using the smaller vehicles for minor calls Community Center Milliron said little progress has been made after the council moved $500,000 from the community center to the pool.

Serious repairs are needed, but there is little money currently available.

“We're going to explore any other potential grants, any state or federal funds and any public-private partnerships,” Milliron said. “We have a find a solution.”

Simpson park project Irrigation work in the park should be completed

by July 1, after the city added new parking and a picnic table and bench was added through an Eagle Scout project. No additional projects in park are planned until the Parks Master Plan is finished.

North Bend Library “At this time our goal is to maintain what we have, so it can be sustainable,” Milliron said.

He said there is $500,000 in Urban Renewal Agency budget to make repairs at the library.

Ferry Road Park While work at the park has stopped due to the archaeological study, Milliron said the city is continuing to work.

“We will be investigating whether we can put that park on the National Register of Historic Places and see if we can get some additional grants for that park,” he said.

Some other council goals

discussed included: Public Works Funding Milliron said the big problem North Bend faces is it is unable to get grants because its rates are too low.

“That’s nice that are rates are low, but it’s also an albatross,” he said. “If our system gets too bad, you won’t have a choice.

The state will step in and change the rates.”

County annex The Urban Renewal Agency purchased the annex with the idea of tearing it down and having a multi-use development built.

Milliron said work is moving forward slowly, and he hopes progress moves quicker by the end of the year.

Bandon is facing critical planning, water & sewer issues because of the lack of leadership & responsible governing by Mayor Schamehorn (M) & the City Council (CC).

Bandon Municipal Code (BMC) Ch. 13 guarantees utilities services, do we still have these guarantees? Bandon’s water plant has capacity for 4,000 people, & there are no plans or funding to increase capacity. That leaves water for 831 people (pop. 3,169), OR water for fire suppression, schools, the hospital, new construction, hotels & VRDs, visitors, & all businesses.

What about the aged-out sewer plant, what is its “person” capacity? What is happening with the projects we are paying for with our increased property tax? Why doesn’t the Council budget enough money for water & sewer utilities?

It seems we are paying for a Special Election in August. Rate increases to pay for…?

One of the most important areas of Bandon Gov’t is planning. Planning, or the lack of it, can impact your enjoyment of your property. Basic utilities and planning affects your daily life.

Bandon once had local control over most planning issues. We, the people of Bandon determined what Bandon was going to be. Since City Manager (CM) Chandler’s arrival on 1.2.2020, bit by bit local control disappeared. It is disrespectful for the CM to assume that a planning decision must be made in a different county to be impartial. This opinion is not factual. It is hypocritical when one then assigns much, if not all, of the planning decisions to oneself, as CM Chandler does. Again, when did the CC name Chandler Planning Director?

What was wrong with BMC Ch. 16 & 17 that needed cleaning up? Why were “clean” codes applied before they were codified? If M and CC can violate Oregon law, the BMC and Charter, what stops them from declaring that they give themselves rate-setting authority because of an emergency?

Do you trust your elected representatives to act in your best interests? Bandon is supposed to have a Home Rule (ORS Ch.203) gov’t. Instead of a City Council & City Manager gov’t., it really has a CM & Mike Keiser, out-of-state land developer shadow gov’t.

There is the occasional talk of the public input but not much, if any, is taken. The power of the people has been muted; constituents are inconvenient. Why does Mike Keiser have a more significant voice about Bandon’s future than the voices of Bandon residents? Do the residents of Bandon have to pay to play?

Letters to the Editor Thank you voters

Thank you to the people who voted against the new library. You saved John Topits park from being ruined, and giving the lowlifes a new place to sleep and trash the woods.

To the people who wanted to get the money they were going to make on this deal...now you know how it feels to get screwed over. How about fixing the ridiculous pothole situation? How about cleaning up the trash on the sides of the roads? No one needs a new library.

The libraries in North Bend and Coos Bay are not much better than day care centers and homeless flops. I stopped going to them years ago because of the rudeness and noisy environment. Even the library staff won't stop talking at the top of their voices. Its so bad Coos Bay had to hire a security guard at theirs. Stop wasting our money and raising our taxes.

Job well done

I would like to thank the cast and crew at Little Theater On The Bay for their Memorial Day show this weekend.

Their arrangement of “Battle Hymn of the Republic” brought tears to my eyes. In light of the fact it was a free presentation, I was disappointed that there weren’t larger audiences. I appreciate the hours of preparation that all of you invested in this production.

Thank you again for a job well done.

Stand up for democracy

It is the hallmark of any democracy to have a free and open media, that avails us all the information we need to know what our government has been up to. That simply isn’t possible without journalists willing and able to access that information, and expose the truth; about anything of consequence to our lives, and to our standing with the rest of the world. We can’t have a democracy without a well informed electorate.

Conversely, one of the many characteristics of fascism is to incarcerate and torture journalists for exposing the truth, which is the reason Julian Assange languishes in prison right now, on the brink of death. This man has never been caught reporting anything that wasn’t factually accurate, unlike the pundits on corporate mainstream media who lie to us on a daily basis. There’s not one fact Julian Assange has exposed to the light of day that we, as citizens of this country, are not entitled to know. What’s more, this man is guilty of no crime. All charges against him are bogus. Our government’s treatment of him, and Britain’s complicity in this grotesque abuse of power, come straight out of the fascist’s playbook.

I encourage any of you interested in saving our democracy (what’s left of it) to contact our president and congressional representatives in behalf of Julian Assange.

Let’s not allow this stellar journalist to go down as a martyr. Real journalists have been under attack for a long time, here and elsewhere, and many have lost their lives.

Just being a journalist in this day & age is a heroic act.

Julian Assange has been imprisoned and tortured too long already and it needs to stop.

Pride Month through the eyes of a trans woman

Pride month is upon us, and this year we shall see for the first time in history, an LGBTQ+ pride flag flown from a city of Coos Bay flag pole. This is no doubt a profound moment for Coos Bay. North Bend has also declared June LGBTQ+ pride month, following Coos Bay last year.

As a transgender, pansexual woman of Coos Bay, I do feel these actions show some bit of acknowledgment and representation, and makes a statement of support and solidarity with my community against discrimination or the transphobia/homophobia we face. We face barriers to our healthcare, problems with LGBTQ youth homelessness when parents kick them out, continued discrimination in some areas of marriage equality, a worse mental health problem without either healthcare to treat it or the available LGBTQ+ friendly therapists/counselors to go to, and even still sometimes we face issues just by going to a bathroom or by wanting people to respect our pronouns, gender and sexuality. We also face a fascist movement in the United States that scapegoats us for everything and also blocks us at every turn when we go for progress.

However, it must be said that a Pride flag being flown is a mere symbol, not any fundamental change. I will be happy to see it fly, but I will be more happier to see my fellow LGBTQ+ neighbors acquire healthcare, housing, full marriage equality and the respect of our cisgender, heterosexual neighbors. The city councilors, the mayors, the city managers and even the county commissioners should be using their position to reach out to our state reps, governor and even congresspeople to get us universal healthcare and public housing.

That is what would truly remedy some of our issues in the LGBTQ+ community, as well as millions of others.

Lastly, I want to forewarn against the corporatization of pride and the capitalization on our struggle by those who only seek to profit from virtue signaling to us just to slap us in the face when June's over. The LGBTQ+ struggle is against this system, not sponsored by it. Happy Pride Month y'all!

Guest Opinion

Can we work to stop school shootings?

Like many in America, I was glued to the news last week after a report of a school shooting in Uvalde, Texas.

My thoughts that day and the week or so since were very personal for a number of reasons. First, I have a child the same age as those in the Uvalde school. Second, as the publisher and editor of the Del Rio News-Herald, I spent a lot of time in Uvalde. Third, and perhaps the biggest, I have experienced a school shooting first-hand.

As a young reporter, every time a big story hits the news, there is a craving. We all want the big story ... until we get it.

Almost exactly four years before the shooting in Uvalde, I was at my office in Alvin, Texas early in the morning. The police scanner went off shortly before 8 a.m. reporting a school shooting in progress at Santa Fe High School, about six miles from my office.

I did what every reporter would do. I grabbed my camera, jumped in the car and sped to Santa Fe. When I reached the campus, there were about 30 police cars already there, medical helicopters were landing and parents were starting to show up.

I parked and got out just before they close the highway and walked on to campus. Surprisingly, there was no one there to stop me. As I walked toward the school, I started taking photos, still unsure exactly what was happening.

All around me, more law enforcement agencies were pulling up. As they stopped, they never hesitated, running right into the school. Listening to chatter from police blocking the highway and police radios from those nearby, I learned the shooter was still inside and still firing away. I learned a little later he was in custody using the same methods.

The only time that morning an officer talked to me was as I approached the parking lot. One sheriff's deputy asked who I was, and when I told him, he simply told me to stay away from the cars because there might be bombs in them.

Within a short time, we began learning that there were fatalities and injuries. Throughout the day, we learned names - students and teachers, several who died when they stood up to the gunman or tried to shield others.

We also learned in this case the police were heroic. At Santa Fe High School, two school officers were on campus when the first shots were fired. These two men never hesitated, running straight to the gunfire.

When they arrived, in less than two minutes, they began exchanging fire with the gunman. One of the officers was hit and almost died. But it wasn't long before backup arrived.

By the time the gunman was in custody, an entire four-lane highway was filled for blocks with police cars. Agencies from miles around

DAVID RUPKALVIS and from three or four counties came out in force.

That night as I sat in my office, updating our web stories for what seemed like the 100th time, my young reporter walked into my office. He was just returning from Santa Fe after spending 12 hours on the ground.

He sat down and asked me a simple question. I'm paraphrasing, but he said something like I know we're supposed to keep our emotions out of things, but I feel like I just want to cry. I told him softly, I had already cried an hour earlier, and we both broke down again.

Four years after that day, I honestly can't remember the names of the victims. I can remember their faces, but not names. But the shooter, I remember his name clearly. I won't repeat it, but I can say he was the opposite of every other school shooter I've read about. He was a straight-A student, involved in sports and other school activities, had both parents at home, was involved in his church.

And yet, he shot and killed 10 people and injured more than a dozen more.

Without heroic police, it would have been much worse. I guess maybe it's strange, too, because he also didn't use an AR 15, instead taking a shotgun and handgun his parents owned legally.

I write this because there has to be a way to stop these shootings. I'm a big Second Amendment supporter, so I don't believe banning all guns is the answer.

I can tell you in Santa Fe, the school district responded in the way many have been calling for. They revamped all their schools so there is

only one way to get in. They created security foyers in that entrance to make sure anyone who enters is checked and then buzzed through.

The classrooms were altered to have bulletproof glass and doors that lock automatically when closed.

Those are all good steps, but they would not have stopped the shooter that day. As a student, he would have walked through the secure entrance with no problem.

Hardening of schools is a key step, but Uvalde had already done that. All it takes is one person leaving a door open to make all the work worthless.

Background checks are fine, and I support them. But the shooter in Uvalde passed one, and the shooter in Santa Fe certainly would have when he turned 18. You can ban AR 15s, but as Santa Fe showed, there are other choices.

Banning all guns, as some want, will never fly in our country. First, it would take a Constitutional amendment that would never pass. Second, if you took guns from the law abiding, only the criminals would have them.

Maybe the answer is actually finding compromise. Maybe those sneering at all gun restrictions could agree some limits in some occasions is acceptable. And maybe those sneering at hardening schools can agree it would and does make a difference.

I have zero confidence either of those will happen, because in today's world both sides seem to benefit from a disaster, and winning the political battles seems to be more important to them than actually solving problems.

Zoo releases hundreds of rare butterflies In a misty coastal meadow on Wednesday morning, Oregon Zoo butterfly specialists and their conservation partners said goodbye to hundreds of the Oregon Zoo's tiniest residents.

They were releasing Oregon silverspots at select sites in the coastal mountain range in an effort to save this beautiful Northwest species.

Once common in coastal grasslands from Northern California up into British Columbia, the Oregon silverspot has been listed as threatened under the federal Endangered Species Act since 1980. Today, just four isolated populations remain.

"Three of the last four silverspot populations would most likely be extinct if it weren't for this recovery program," said Travis Koons, who oversees the Oregon Zoo's silverspot conservation efforts in partnership with the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and Seattle's Woodland Park Zoo. Each summer, a small number of female silverspots are collected by field biologists and brought to the zoo to lay eggs.

The eggs hatch into tiny caterpillars, which are kept safe during their winter dormancy. In the spring, they wake up to a leafy meal and grow quickly.

When the time is right, the zoo and its conservation partners transport the silverspots — either as caterpillars or pupae — to field sites in order to bolster the three remaining Oregon populations.

"These beautiful pollinators have lost a lot

of ground," Koons said.

"But if they continue to breed, and if we continue to restore and protect their habitat, we can give them a good chance to survive."

In 2019, the Oregon Zoo became the first facility to successfully breed silverspots, and Koons said a small number of pupae will stay behind this year to complete their transformation into adult butterflies at the zoo — a "rear guard" of sorts that will breed

and lay eggs to produce caterpillars for next year's release.

Conservationists have also been working to establish a new population at Saddle Mountain, where the Oregon silverspot has not been seen since 1972.

The area was added as a reintroduction site in 2018 because a rare flower — the early blue violet — blooms in abundance there.

DEAR ABBY

By Abigail Van Buren

WOMAN EATS ROOMMATE'S FOOD WHEN HER SPENDING RUNS DRY

DEAR ABBY: A couple of months ago, I moved from my mother's into an apartment with a friend I had rekindled a high school friendship with a few years back. The first month in, I noticed she had eaten a few of my freezer meals, so I confronted her about it. She started crying and told me she was waiting for a new debit card in the mail and had limited cash to get her through until the card arrived. I told her she should have said something, and I would have happily let her have some of my food, but for her not to ask was rude because I rely on those freezer meals for quick and easy lunches at work.

I finished the box of meals and bought a new one. It was a large box with six packages inside. I intentionally left it unopened to see if she would steal food from me again. Lo and behold, a month later, I went to open the box and saw she'd taken two of them.

How do I confront her a second time? She doesn't have a car so she Ubers to work, which adds up, and she spends hundreds of dollars on her anime hobby. If I can't trust her with small things like food and snacks, how am I supposed to trust her at all? We just signed a two-year lease, and I cannot sublet. -- HUNGRY FOR HONESTY DEAR HUNGRY: I am sorry to say this, but your roommate has proven she can't be trusted.

Are her problems financial or emotional? Cross your fingers and hope she can come up with the rent each month. If you can afford it, purchase a small refrigerator for your bedroom, install a strong padlock on the door and use it to secure ALL of your property until the lease expires. If your roommate asks why the lock and fridge are being installed, confront her again then.

DEAR ABBY: I am writing about the letter you published on April 3 from "Incredulous in

Oklahoma." She said her boyfriend falls into a deep sleep lasting three days every two or three weeks, during which time he turns abusive. Abby, his symptoms might be caused by a rare neurological disorder called Kleine-Levin Syndrome.

Your readers can learn more about it by visiting the ninds.nih.gov website and selecting the Health Information tab to search for this disorder. -MARIAM IN FLORIDA DEAR MARIAM: Thank you for the input.

Several other readers also mentioned this disorder might be a possible explanation for the boyfriend's behavior. When I read her letter, I wasn't sure whether he might be "on" something, having an allergic reaction to a medication or unwell. This is why I suggested he might need to be examined physically and neurologically by a medical professional.

DEAR ABBY: My husband did not have a close relationship with his parents. Now that they are both dead, he emulates them -- wearing suspenders like his dad, drinking beer in the garage, having a TV in every room. His screen savers are of "Dad." What's the deal? -- PERPLEXED WIFE IN UTAH DEAR WIFE: I think you should gently ask your husband that question. He may not realize that he is modeling his father's behavior. It may be a safe way to maintain a connection to dear old Dad, or proof that a behavioral influence can travel from generation to generation, but don't make a problem where there isn't one. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

New MRI trailer coming to Southern Coos Hospital & Health Center The Alliance Imaging MRI trailer located on the Southern Coos Hospital & Health Center campus near the Emergency Department will soon be replaced with a new trailer offering an enhanced patient experience and additional imaging services.

SCHHC currently contracts with Alliance Imaging to provide onsite MRI services to the community. That contract, entered into in 2018, is up for renewal.

Medical Imaging Manager Deb Backman and an internal SCHHC team did extensive research on available options for the facility in order to continue providing onsite MRI services.

In alignment with the district’s strategic pillars of People, Service, Quality, Growth and Finance, the team, along with SCHHC leadership, finance and Multi-Specialty Clinic staff recommended to CEO Raymond Hino and the Southern Coos Health District Board to enter into a five-year contract paid monthly with MRI Mobile, rather than extending the contract with Alliance Imaging.

The current MRI scanner was manufactured in 1999 and had a software update in 2007. The current trailer has several barriers that negatively impact the patient

experience and hinder plans for future growth, according to staff.

For example, the trailer is not well-insulated, the entrance to the unit does not allow for inpatients confined to beds, and throws a high level of external noise.

In addition, the control room is cramped, making it difficult to accommodate staff and the bore width is small by industry standards.

The new trailer is expected to provide an improved experience for patients with reduced noise during procedures; a wider bore that accommodates patients with wider shoulders; a larger lift door, allowing SCHHC to scan inpatients in beds or wheelchairs who have limited mobility; and updated technology and electronic medical record integration.

Enhanced services and growth potential can also be added, including the potential for neurovascular studies such as triple study MRI Head/MRI Brain, a study performed after a variety of head injuries, including aneurysms, and detecting atherosclerotic (plaque) disease in the carotid artery of the neck.

In addition, the new trailer will improve SCHHC staff workflow through a more comfortable con-

In fiscal year 2021, SCHHC provided the public with 273 MRI scans - approximately 23 procedures per month. It is projected that the new facility will provide an average of 33 MRI

procedures per month.

Additional services and patient volumes will increase revenue for the hospital.

The location of the new trailer, in an area being cleared and prepped adjacent to the north end

of the main hospital building, will create more visibility and ease of access to the SCHHC Emergency Department and will open up additional parking.

The new trailer is expected to be in place by July 1.

Southern Coos Hospital & Health Center and the Southern Coos Health Foundation will host a show of artworks relating to the theme of Dog Days of Summer. The show runs July, August and September.

Drop-off date for artwork is Sunday, July 10, from 2-4 p.m.

An in-person reception is scheduled for Sunday, July 17, from 1-3 p.m. at the hospital.

Featured Artist is Jill Stockford, whose colorful and whimsical paintings, often including dogs, have graced the walls of Southern Coos Hospital and other local art galleries.

Dog Days of Summer is the period between early July and early September when the hot sultry weather of summer usually occurs in the northern hemisphere. Ancient Romans calculated this time using the Dog Star, Sirius.

For this show artists can interpret the theme to include anything relating to summertime, plants, weather, summer skies, stars, or art relating to dogs, such as dogs cooling off at the beach or river, or just being dogs. Have

fun with it!

As usual, artists can be creative in their interpretation of the theme, keeping in mind that art on the hospital walls is meant to entertain and de-stress the patients, families, staff and general visitors. It is not a venue for nudity, violence, morbidity or as a political soapbox.

The Southern Coos Health Foundation and show organizers thank the public for their continued positive approach to art in these shows.

Artists may enter 1-3 pieces using painting, collage, mixed media, drawing, photography or assemblage in all artistic styles: representational, abstract, impressionistic, or futuristic. All works must be able to be hung on the wall.

The Southern Coos Health Foundation’s Quarterly Art Shows continue to remain free to enter. Please consider donating to the Hospital’s Art Fund if you are able. For more information, please email Scott McEachern at foundation@southerncoos. org or Amy Moss Strong at amossstrong@southerncoos.org

AS I SEE IT: Life Before the Bandon Fire

By MARY SCHAMEHORN The first picture I am sharing was taken in late July of 1936 celebrating the open house of the Bob-Otto Court, which was completed just two months before the Bandon Fire destroyed much of the business section and all but a few homes in East Bandon. Miraculously the Bob-Otto Court survived and proved to be the hub for medical triage and a number of other services immediately after the Fire.

This picture appeared in Western World highlighting the new business. What I found most interesting was the scope of development on the waterfront, including a large building at top right which neither Jim Proehl nor I recall seeing in photographs at the museum. He believes it could be Frank Perry's mill. Industries on the waterfront survived the Fire.

"Bandon's latest addition to the recreational facilities of this section will be formally introduced to the public Saturday when the Bob-Otto Court at the corner of Elmira Avenue and Second Street East will hold open house. Bob Ward and Otto Magill, proprietors, are desirous of acquainting the local public with the quality of service they are offering the traveling public in order that the local people in turn may be in position to tell those who are seeking such accommodations."

The Bob-Otto Court was torn down in 1957, and today the property is the site of the Chevron Service Station.

"The lumber, plywood, shingles and other building materials were furnished by the Coast Lumber Yard," referring to the building supply house just east of Bob-Otto Court, which also survived the Fire. In the 1980s it was torn down, and today it is a gravel parking lot at the corner of Fillmore and First Street, owned by the City. The plumbing supplies came from McNair Hardware.

"The ground covered by the new court is 100x150 feet. It is enclosed on three sides, opening on the highway facing the south. The main section is 150 feet long and contains six apartments with garages, each apartment having three rooms, toilet, shower and wash basin.

The west wing has five motel rooms. The east wing has two three-room apartments.

"A separate building in the center of the court, 24x50, houses the service station, office and living quarters.

"Otto Magill, who is manager of the business, came to Bandon last March to join Bob Ward in this new enterprise. He is a native of Coos County, having been born at Fairview in 1896. Bob Ward is a well known Bandon man who came here as a boy with his parents from Utah. He entered the transfer business and later added trucking as a contractor for log hauling.

He is also one of the three city councilmen from the East ward."

After the Fire, the apartments were quickly turned into full-time rentals for the many Bandonians, who were without shelter.

A tent city was established on First Street behind the auto court.

The second picture shows the library, which was established in one of the tents behind the court, the back wall of which is at right in this photo. The long-time library director Amelia Henry stands in front of the "new" library.

A short item in the Oct. 8, 1936, Western World says: "Temporary quarters for the city library have been provided in a tent immediately west of the Bob-Otto Court. Miss Harriet Long, state librarian, met with the library

board and arranged for the service to be started with a nucleus of 500 volumes which she brought from Portland."

I am using this photo of the old football stadium to illustrate a story I found in the July 24, 1952, Western World seeking volunteers to help put the roof on the grandstand at a work party scheduled for that night.

"A volunteer work party to put the weatherproof tar roof on the big grandstand at Bandon Athletic field (later known as Dave Miller Field) will be held this evening.

"The appeal was voiced

by George Chappell, chairman of the school board, who said that school board members, some Bandon quarterback club members and Vern Brown, local builder, will definitely be on hand with all the necessary materials, and others willing to help out will be warmly welcomed.

"Work to be done includes completing the layering of three layers of tar paper on the grandstand roof and 'mopping' a layer of hot tar upon the paper.

The city of Bandon tar pot will be used. Volunteers are cautioned to wear an old pair of shoes and old trousers so the tar won't ruin good clothing."

Sadly, alongside that article was another, explaining that much of the grandstand roofing materials had been stolen, including 38 rolls of tar paper and about 75 pounds of nails.

"It wasn't dirty enough to steal that much from the community ... when Brown and crew showed up to work Sunday morning, they found somebody had thrown eight more rolls of the building paper off the grandstand roof, ruining the paper."

--------------------------------We are all still reeling from the latest senseless slaughter of innocent children in a Texas school shooting, made even more tragic by that fact that armed officers waited outside the school for 78 minutes before entering.

Golden State Warrior Coach Steve Kerr joined the chorus of concerned people across the country in asking if this latest tragedy is enough to prompt the Senate to consider increased gun restrictions. Government has no plans to confiscate people's guns, but do people really think there is no need for stricter regulations?

An item in the LA Times reads: "Foes of gun control quickly said ... that gun legislation wouldn't stop such tragedies. But a Times analysis says gun control seems to work. In 2005, California had almost the same rate of deaths from guns as Florida or Texas.

Since then, California repeatedly has tightened its gun laws, while Florida and Texas have moved in the opposite direction. California's rate of gun deaths has declined by 10 percent since 2005, even as the national rate has climbed in recent years. And in Texas and Florida: Their rates of gun deaths have climbed 28 percent and 37 percent respectively."

The gunman purchased two AR-15-style rifles just days after his 18th birthday

Miraculously the Bob-Otto Court survived and proved to be the hub for medical triage and a number of other services immediately after the Fire. last week. Texas, like the vast majority of US states, allow 18-year-olds to purchase long guns, including shotguns and rifles.

A map, updated on May 25, pictured in red those states which have a state minimum age of 18 or default to the federal minimum of 18 for buyers of long guns, including semi-automatic rifles.

Oregon is a red state. Only six states (coded in blue) set the age limit at 21 for long guns. Our closest neighbors -- California and Washington -- are two of the six states with a 21-age limit.

--------------------------------"Cheese War" is the title of a program, sponsored by the Langlois Library, to be held June 6 from 4 to 6 p.m. at the Langlois Cheese Factory. Authors of the new book which outlines the conflict and courage in Tillamook County are Linda Kirk of Myrtle Point (who is married to BHS graduate Richard Kirk) and her sister, Marilyn Milne. "Come and hear the true tale of a fight over Tillamook's famous cheese, told in our historic cheese factory," said a library spokesman. Refreshments will be served and books will be available for sale at the event.

--------------------------------As well we know, Covid is still with us, as evidenced by the fact that mask restrictions, even for administrative areas, have been revived at Southern Coos Hospital after a number of employees tested positive in recent weeks.

An article appeared in the news last week indicating that the state health department was urging people in 15 Oregon counties, said to be at medium risk, to once again wear masks at indoor gatherings.

Neither, Coos, Curry or Douglas counties were among those counties, as our numbers were considered to be low.

The state health doctor was quick to point out that the mask advisory was only a recommendation, indicating he did not think the governor or the legislature planned to once again make masks mandatory as while cases have risen, the hospitalization rates are still fairly low.

--------------------------------I've seen information that two of Bandon's churches, St. John's Episcopal and Holy Trinity Catholic, will be holding their annual fund-raising rummage sales on Friday and Saturday, June 3-4, at the respective churches.

The hours for St. John's, whose mission is supporting its medical equipment loan closet, are 9-4 on Friday and 9-2 on Saturday.

--------------------------------The World contains the weekly police blog for Bandon, and the news is not good, with the latest report containing five instances of unlawful entry into a vehicle (two on Lincoln Avenue, Beach Loop Drive, Seabird and Colony Circle), three theft cases, a harassment call, two disturbance calls and a case involving counterfeit money. The report did not indicate if any of the cases involve gas theft, but my

guess is they do.

--------------------------------The news that Bay Area Hospital plans to close its inpatient behavioral health unit has reached the national Becker's Hospital Review publication, which I receive daily as a member of the hospital board. It will cancel the contracts of 56 temporary employees in response to financial challenges from Covid and high labor costs.

A retired health care worker said "this is horrible, as it means no mental health inpatient services will be available for Coos and Curry county residents.

Eugene will be the closest psych ward, which means police will not be able to facilitate mental health holds. Why can't the state keep this open considering the effects of Ballot Measure 110?" she asked. "The state's answer is to allow the mentally ill to self medicate with meth, cocaine and heroin and put the rest of us at their mercy," she said referring to BM 110, which allows people in Oregon to possess user-grade amounts of the three hard drugs, with nothing more than the equivalent of a $100 traffic ticket.

A post on Facebook said that the Waterfall Clinic would offer some of the services, but that remains to be seen if it can fill the void.

Marshfield Junior High relay team takes second at prestigious middle school meet The World Marshfield finished second in the 4x400 relay at the Middle School Meet of Champions in Corvallis.

It was the best finish by athletes from Coos County during the elite meet, which brings together the top middle school athletes from around the state, regardless of school size.

The Marshfield squad of Carter McGriff, Jaxson Stovall, Braedyn Caldera and Chandler Wyatt finished in 3 minutes, 51.43 seconds. The winning team, from Grant Cluster, was timed in 3:50.81. McGriff is a

seventh-grader and the others on the team all are eighth-graders.

The only other South Coast placer among the boys was Cole Lehnherr of Powers, who was eighth in the shot put with an effort of 41-3 ½.

Myrtle Point eighth-grader Jadelin Warner was eighth in the girls long jump with a leap of 15-3 ½. Warner also placed 14th in the high jump, clearing 4-6.

Also of note for the girls, North Bend sixth-grader Addison Horning was ninth in the 1,500 meters with a time of 5:02.66, finishing behind seventh- and eighth-graders from larger schools.

SCAT is back in competition mode

The World The South Coast Aquatic Team has returned to competition.

Thanks to the generosity of the Gold Coast Swim Team, the squad has been able to share Coos Bay’s Mingus Park Pool for workouts.

But until recently, the team hadn’t competed in out-of-town meets because of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

“The kids had been laying low, and social distancing as much as possible while continuing to work their butts off in practice,” said Chrissy Ryback, the SCAT media director. “Once everything opened up again, we jumped right back into competition and are into our long course season. It’s been two years since we’ve seen our kids in action and they are killing it out there.”

Nine members of the team competed recently in Cottage Grove — Payton Andrews, Cecilia Bolin, Sophia Flores, Mira Muth-Vu, Evalynn Ryback, Morgan Ryback, Hailey Speakman, Isabelle Speakman and Evan Wambaugh. All had personal records in at least some of their events.

Three of the swimmers also qualified to compete in the 2022 Comfort Suites Corvallis Long Course Open.

Morgan Ryback, Mira Muth-Vu and Evalynn Ryback had a chance to compete in the meet in the 50-meter pool at the Osbon Aquatic Center in Corvallis.

Team members will compete next month in the Mike Morris Memorial Invitational at Amazon Pool in Eugene.

Together with that vacated portion of Indiana Avenue and vacated 12th Street East that would inure to said property by operation of law.

COMMONLY KNOWN AS: 1195 Indiana Avenue SE, Bandon, OR 97411. Both the beneficiary and the trustee have elected to sell the said real property to satisfy the obligations secured by said trust deed and a notice of default has been recorded pursuant to Oregon Revised Statutes 86.735(3); the default for which the foreclosure is made is grantor’s failure to pay when due the following sums: Monthly payments in the sum of $719.75, from October 1, 2021 and monthly payments in the sum of $731.10, from February 1, 2022, plus prior accrued late charges in the amount of $115.16, together with all costs, disbursements, and/ or fees incurred or paid by the beneficiary and/or trustee, their employees, agents or assigns.

Coquille Chess Club hosts tourney, plans summer events With the rain, it was a great day to be inside and play in the Coquille Chess Tournament on May 28. Seventeen kids and one brave adult took on the challenge to compete over the chess board for the prize of dragons and dinosaurs. Sebastian Newby came from Bandon to take on the

Coquille players.

In the advanced section, Dustin Herker was once again undefeated and won first place.

He will be a teacher at summer chess camps on Portland this summer. McKinley Warncke whose only defeat was against Dustin Herker placed second.

Jason Herker placed third.

These three champions, as well as Frank Morse who was unable to attend this tournament, will be driving to Las Vegas on June 7 for the International Chess Festival to play in the four

You’ve seen them, lazily drifting in wide circles high above.

Large dark birds gently rocking on broad dark wings locked in place as they soar higher on the rising wind.

An eagle?

No. A turkey vulture.

The three most common large dark, broad-winged soaring birds in Coos region, bald eagle, osprey, and turkey vulture, are easy to tell apart up close.

Mature bald eagles have white heads and tails, with dark body and wings. (Immature bald eagles are dark all over; the head and tail look mottled when they’re switching to adult plumage.) Mostly dark on the back, osprey are white on the underside of their bodies, sporting white-and-brown patterned outer wings with black “wrists.”

Turkey vultures are dark all over, although the outer wing feathers -- the trailing halves of the wings -- look grayer. And, of course, turkey vultures have naked, red heads.

Even if you can’t see the color patterns because of distance or lighting, these three common birds are also easy to tell apart by how they hold their wings while soaring. Bald eagles hold their wings flat when soaring; osprey hold their wings in an almost-flat “M” when aloft; turkey vultures hold their wings in a very shallow “V” when soaring.

(Also a large local bird, but lighter in color, great blue herons trail their long legs behind them while flying, and they tuck their heads back to their shoulders, with their necks bent beneath.)

So, what’s with the naked head?

First, while not all vultures worldwide lack feathers on their heads, most vulMarty Giles tures do.

Since vultures are carrion-eaters, finding and feeding on animals that have already died, it has been long assumed that vultures’ bare heads were beneficial because sticking a feathered head inside a carcass can get rotting bits stuck in the feathers, becoming a sanitation issue.

However, that can’t be the whole story since there are other large birds with feathered heads that eat carrion by sticking their heads in indelicate places, and some birds with naked heads, such as, well, turkeys, don’t eat carrion.

Observation and modeling conducted by researchers at the University of Glasgow several years ago demonstrated that a key benefit of a bald head was temperature regulation. By tucking their heads in or sticking them out, bare-headed vultures can expose or protect their skin to cooling breezes.

Vultures also urinate/defecate on their own legs. This has been thought to offer sterilizing benefits, as the waste is quite acidic, Please see Vultures, Page B4

but is more likely another temperature-regulating move.

While soaring, turkey vultures sniff for carrion.

Rare among birds, turkey vultures have a good sense of smell.

But vultures also find food indirectly by sight: the first vulture that sails to the ground after catching a whiff of dinner will catch the eyes of other vultures that follow.

No, turkey vultures don’t circle animals that are dying. What they do circle are thermals, pockets of air that are rising above warm spots on the land.

The thermals give them an easy ride to higher altitudes where they can smell and see more area, broadening their search for

This is a busy time of year, what with summer just around the corner and we continue to work toward a pre-COVID community lifestyle. Although gas and airline ticket prices may put a bit of a dent in your “get away” plans.

Also it’s about midyear, and an excellent time to evaluate how we are doing as individuals, our community and our economic future. Last Fall, our board of directors held its annual planning session and set our 2022 strategic objectives and focus areas. Let me share them with you to recognize what has been done and what our working expectations are for the remainder of 2022.

To ensure that business

succeeds and thrives in the Bay Area and key community projects facilitated, the Bay Area Chamber of Commerce (BACC) is committed to the following priorities: Create a strong local economy Through supporting the retention and growth of existing local business, focusing on tourism opportunities, supporting industrial development in our area, facilitating new business wanting to relocate here & streamlining the state and local permitting process.

Promote the Community Through using a positive area marketing message both internally and externally, promoting Oregon’s Adventure Coast,

carrion.

They’re ungainly on the ground and have a hard time getting airborne.

Vultures eating carrion’s a good thing for the rest of us. Large animals can take a long time to decompose, and the vultures help the process along considerably.

Although they’re carrion consumers, vultures are pickier eaters than you might think, preferring freshly dead meals and apparently preferring herbivores.

Of course, dead animals can harbor a copious zoo of disease. Vultures, though, have such acid stomach secretions that most disease organisms are destroyed.

When not soaring or eating, turkey vultures roost in trees, often in a group.

They lay and care for their eggs and chicks (usually two) on the bare ground,

sometimes in caves, or on bare, rotted logs.

They don’t “sing,” but can hiss, grunt, or even growl.

Turkey vultures are found throughout Oregon most the year, with only a few rare stragglers in winter. They’ll start leaving the Southern Oregon Coast in October and will generally return in February.

I’d say turkey vultures are a more interesting herald of spring than Capistrano swallows!
