Murder suspect shot, killed after pulling knife Accused killer held on $2 million bond

By DAVID RUPKALVIS The World

After four days of searching for a suspect in the murder of a woman on Cape Arago Highway, a suspect was finally identified Tuesday afternoon.

But when sheriff’s deputies and police tried to make contact with the suspect, an altercation led to two officers shooting the suspect, who was declared dead shortly later at Bay Area Hospital.

District Attorney Paul Frasier said law enforcement officials investigating the Saturday shooting of Amber Townsend identified 37-year-old Matthew Tyler Mikel as a suspect in the case. At around 7:34 p.m. Tuesday, multiple officers went to the Global Inn in Coos Bay, where they learned Mikel was staying.

Sheriff Craig Zanni and Coos Bay Police Detective Ken Labrousse discuss the recent murders their departments are investigating during a press briefing Tuesday.

A North Bend man charged with the murder of a Coos Bay woman last week is being held on a $2 million bond on a charge of second-degree murder.

47-year-old Johnny Ray Bohannon was arrested last Thursday after Rebecca Elaine Reeves was found dead in her home on Idaho Drive.

District Attorney Paul Frasier said an autopsy was scheduled on Reeves Tuesday.

Marshfield seniors remembered for success in and out of the classroom

By DAVID RUPKALVIS The World

The Marshfield High School Class of 2022 will go down in history as one of the top classes in school history. The senior class played huge roles in state championships in football,

basketball and track and field as well as two state titles and speech and debate.

But during their commencement ceremony Saturday, the 148 seniors who received diplomas were remembered for something even greater - the resiliency and determination the

young men and women showed as they persevered through two years of ups and downs due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

After years of missing school, cancelling sports and other extracurricular activities and wearing masks, graduation was a celebration of the students who

completed the unusual journey, and smiles were everywhere as the Class of 2022 concluded their high-school journey.

"I've never met so many individuals who experienced the challenges I did as a young adult while in high school," Marshfield Principal Elias Ashton said. "In

2020, you were all thrown into a series of unfortunate experiences.

Instead of making excused, you adapted. You got creative like have an outdoor homecoming dance. You adapted like playing outdoor volleyball and winter Please see SENIORS, Page A2

Convicted murderer re-sentenced in 1988 killings

By DAVID RUPKALVIS The World

After spending more than 30 years on Oregon's death row, a man convicted of raping and killing two German tourists in 1988 now has a chance at freedom. But not if District Attorney Paul Frasier has anything to say about it.

After the Oregon Legislature changed the state law regarding aggravated murder in 2019 and the state Supreme Court ruled all inmates on death row that do not qualify based on the new standards must be re-sentenced, David Lynn Simonson had a new sentencing hearing in Coos County on Monday.

Frasier explained that since

life in prison without the possibility of parole was not available when the crime was committed, the most he could ask for was life in prison with a possibility of parole after 30 years.

"I made the argument based on the facts of the case that if there ever was a case that deserved consecutive sentencing, this was the one," Frasier said. "Judge (Martin) Stone agreed with me."

Stone sentenced Simonson to consecutive sentences of life in prison with the possibility of parole after 30 years. That means if Simonson were granted parole on one case, he would still have to serve the second before being Please see SENTENCE, Page A3

football. I can't tell you enough how proud I am of the people you've come to be."

Ashton then turned to the crowd, saying "They made it."

Ashton said the Class of 2022 earned 1,850 college credits while in high school and were responsible for eight banners hanging in the high school gym.

Turning back to the students, Ashton told them, "Don't forget, once a Pirate, always a Pirate."

In his final graduation ceremony as superintendent of Coos Bay School District, Marshfield's own Bryan Trendell also applauded the senior class.

"Tonight is a night of celebrations and congratulations," Trendell said.

"When you look out at the graduates, this is why we do what we do as educators. You are now forever a part of the legacy and tradition that is Marshfield High School."

Talking to the Class of 2020, Trendell told them no matter what they do in life, he wanted them to take three challenges from him. First, be kind.

Second, be giving. Third, be good.

"It has been both an honor and a privilege to witness firsthand the journey you have been on the past 13 years," Trendell said. "It has truly been an amazing journey."

School board member Kevin Dubisar, also a Marshfield graduate, also had a message for the graduating class.

"I sat here 21 years ago getting ready to graduate," he said. "It goes quickly.

Today is a special day. I'd like you to remember your roots and where you came from. Life will aways challenge you in ways you never expected. If you stay true to yourself, you'll always be a success."

Emmalee Schaefer addressed her classmates, telling them a scripture,

The World

Philippians 4:13 has carried her through the unusual challenges of high school.

"For four years now, I've worn this bracelet to remind me no matter what life has thrown at me, I can get through it," Schaefer said. "During the high school experience, there has been a lot of ups and downs. We have overcome a lot, yet we did it."

Schaefer told her classmates they have grown so much in the last four years.

"During this time, we have learned to use our voice," she said. "We have learned how to express our voice in society. We have grown in ways not many classes have done.

We started our journey 13 years ago, the first day of kindergarten. We held our mom's hand and we walked to class. Coos Bay schools are were we grew up."

As Schaefer concluded her speech, she told her classmates to remember what they have achieved.

"Take a minute and think of everything we've done together," Schaefer said. "There's so many things we will forget.

Remember the little things from the last 13 years.

Don't give up. No matter what life throws at you, you can do it."

Sydnie McCarty told her classmates to create a mosaic from their lives, with much of it filled from their high school years.

"I want you to look around at your classmates and lay down the tiles to make your own mosaic," McCarty said. "Know more is to come. Wherever you find yourselves, don't be afraid to take up space.

It's yours to have."

Joshua Giacomini also addressed his classmates, saying his high school experience had been amazing.

He pointed out the success and fun he had playing football and competing with the speech and debate teams.

"Moving here to Coos Bay is one of the best things that's happened in

"Congratulations to all of you. I hope you had as good a time as I have."

Ismael Rodriguez Cardoza also addressed his classmates, saying the Class of 2022 is leaving a legacy few can match.

"It was only four years ago that we started this strange journey," he said.

"Bam, somehow we are seniors, we are graduates and we are leaving a legacy. Today is a sunny day.

Today is a special day. Life is a movie, and we are the main characters."

Perhaps the biggest applause of the night came from the Class of 2022 when the guest staff speaker was announced. Art teacher Heidi Ositis took the stage as the seniors roared in approval.

"There is no 13th grade," Ositis told the students. "The K-12 timeline ends tonight. After tonight, your time is your own and your schedule is your own.

It's officially up to you.

Your timeline is yours and you don't have to compare it to anyone else."

Ositis told the students a lesson they learned in school, there are goods and bads, will continue.

Importantly, she said, both are needed in life.

"For every low, there's Ositis said. "Without the as good. It's not just about an equal high up there," lows, the highs are not near the highs and lows, it's about the twists and turns."

Using her life as an example, Ositis told the students there is no single path to happiness. She 172 Anderson Avenue, Coos Bay said she has tried many P.O. Box 1840, Coos Bay, OR 97420 © 2022 Country Media, Inc. jobs, different careers and different educational Office 541-266-6047 opportunities.

Murder From A1

Frasier said in a press release. “An officer from the Coos County Sheriff’s Office and an officer from the Coos Bay Police Department fired their handguns.

Mr. Mikel was struck by at least one round. The shots fired call to dispatch came in at 7:36 p.m. Medical personnel were immediately dispatched and Mr. Mikel was then transported to Bay Area Hospital. Mr. Mikel was declared deceased at the hospital.”

During a press briefing Wednesday, Frasier said six officers from multiple agencies went to the Global Inn after officers determined Mikel has been staying at the Coos Bay hotel.

While officers were hoping to talk to Mikel about the Townsend shooting, they also learned he was on a detainable list due to felony probation violations. Any suspect on the

Sentence From A1

released. Maybe.

Frasier admitted he was not certain what the state law was in 1988, so there is a chance Simonson could ask for parole. But if that happens, Frasier vowed to fight every attempt in an effort to keep the convicted murderer behind bars.

"As long as I'm district attorney, we will appear at the parole board and appeal any parole," Frasier said.

Bond From A1

Frasier said.

Frasier said he was hoping to present the case to a grand jury Wednesday and to have an indictment before Bohannon's next court hearing June 17.

Frasier said the court will enter a not guilty plea on Bohannon's behalf, as is customary in all Oregon criminal cases.

Frasier said Bohannon came to the Coos Bay Police Department voluntarily the day after the murder, and he was arrested after being talked to by police.

The second-degree murder charge carries a maximum sentence of life in prison with the possibility of parole after 25 years.

Frasier said despite what some are saying on social media, a woman known on social media as Bohannon's girlfriend is not a suspect in the case at this time.

list can be arrested if they are located by police.

“They went to the Global Inn,” Frasier said. “Six officers approached the room. We had four officers approach the door and two officers stay behind. They knocked on the door. Mr Mikel opened the door, and they asked if they could talk to him. The officer that knocked on the door was in plain clothes. We believe he saw the other officers in the hall.”

Frasier said the officers believed Mikel may have a weapon due to the fact Townsend was shot multiple times with what police believe was a shotgun.

“Mr. Mikel attempted to slam the door shut, and the officers made entry,” Frasier said. “Mr. Mikel ran to a bed, grabbed a knife and threatened officers. Two officers shot him.”

Frasier said as soon as Mikel went down, officers began to give medical treatment, which EMTs took over when the

arrived. He was transported by ambulance to the hospital, where he was declared dead.

Frasier said the two officers involved in the shooting were Detective Aaron Whittenburg with the Coos County Sheriff’s Office and Patrol Sgt. Dan Henthorn with the Coos Bay Police Department.

Whittenburg is a 22-year law enforcement veteran, who has worked with the sheriff’s office for nine years. He is an experienced detective, the head of the South Coast Interagency Narcotics Team and was the lead investigator in the Townsend murder.

Henthorn has 16 years of law enforcement experience, working for the sheriff’s office, Coquille police and the Coos Bay police for the last five years.

As is required in Coos County, both officers were placed on paid administrative leave while the investigation continues. Sheriff Craig Zanni said Coos

County has a protocol in place that sets a minimum amount of time officers must be off after being involved in shootings.

The protocol also requires officers to get counseling as well as other steps.

For the third time in less than a week, the Coos County Major Crime Team was activated. Frasier said per the officer involved shooting protocol in Coos County, the Coos County Sheriff’s Office and Coos Bay Police will not be part of the investigation into this incident.

Instead, officers from North Bend Police Department, Coquille Police Department, Myrtle Point Police Department, Bandon Police Department, the Confederated Tribal Police, Coquille Tribal Police, Bureau of Land Management Law Enforcement, the Oregon State Police, the Coos County Medical Examiner’s Office and the District Attorney’s Office responded.

Frasier said when he heard about the shooting, he immediately called the Oregon State Police and asked them to lead the investigation.

Six detectives from Springfield and Roseburg responded and are leading the effort. In addition, officers from every department in the county art assisting as needed.

After the investigation is finished, the Oregon State Police will turn over their findings to Frasier.

The district attorney will then decide how to proceed.

“I’ll be looking at this case and what to do with in the near future,” Frasier said. “I make the call.

That’s been my practice. I generally do not take the cases to the grand jury.”

While finding a suspect was big step in the Townsend investigation, Frasier said that case is not close yet.

“We’re still investigating that case,” he said.

“We have not closed it yet.

We still need to look at the evidence. He was a suspect yesterday, and his behavior showed that. But we still need to gather more evidence.”

Frasier declined to say whether a shotgun had been found in Mikel’s belongings, as he said officers are still going through his hotel room and vehicle.

However, when asked if there were other suspects, Frasier quickly said, “No.” He said police have determined Mikel and Townsend were acquaintances, going back around a year.

Frasier said an autopsy on Townsend took place Tuesday, and the medical examiner determined she died of multiple gunshot wounds, with the weapon most likely a shotgun.

Frasier said he does not anticipate any more updates on the case until the investigation is complete and he determines how to move forward.

Frasier said his insistence on keeping Simonson behind bars is because the case was heinous. In 1988, Simonson and Jeffrey Ray Williams picked up two female German tourists who were hitchhiking up the coast near the Oregon/California border.

"These two kidnapped two German citizens," Frasier said. "They kidnapped them in California, brought them into Oregon and eventually into Coos County. They raped and murdered both individuals."

Frasier said Simonson

and Williams took the young women deep into the forest, where they raped them, tied them up and shot them in the head.

They were found several days later tied together with their pants down.

"At the time, police had no idea who did it," Frasier said.

But law enforcement quickly learned that Simonson was talking about the crime. When they

brought him in, he readily admitted he shot the women, although he said Williams made him do it.

"Mr. Simonson personally killed both of them," Frasier said. "He was arrested and confessed to the murders."

Sheriff Craig Zanni said he feels Simonson should have remained on death row.

"One of the reasons the Simonson case is signif-

icant is the two victims were raped and murdered, neither of them spoke English and they were scheduled to leave the company in a couple of days," Zanni said. "It didn't have to happen."

Simonson pleaded guilty to the murders and was sentence to death. Simonson appealed the sentence and three times was able to have it overturned. But every time the facts were

presented to Coos County juries, he was re-sentenced to death.

Williams died in prison in 2020, shortly after the Legislature changed the law regarding aggravated murder.

Frasier said he is disappointed Simonson is off death row, but he respects the law.

The last time an inmate was executed in Oregon was 1997.

"Amber Gallagher is a witness in this case," Frasier said. "I don't have any evidence that would back up me charging to try her with a crime."

Frasier said he has seen some of the comments on social media about the case, but he must rely on evidence.

"If the people out there on social media disagree with me, and they have evidence otherwise, we'd ask that they call the Coos Bay Police Department and tell us what they have," Frasier said.

Frasier and Coos Bay Police Detective Ken Labrousse said the last murder inside the Coos Bay city limits was about four of five years ago.

Frasier added that to his knowledge there are only two unsolved murder cases in Coos County.

Those include a killing at Bastendorff Beach three years ago and the murder of a doctor in North Bend last year.

My Turn: Many reasons to celebrate local grads

By DAVID RUPKALVIS The World

Last week, I attended graduation ceremonies for Southwestern Oregon Community College and Marshfield High School.

First of all, I apologize to the schools and students for the many graduation ceremonies I was unable to attend. Family issues and a lack of staff made it impossible to go to every school. Next year, we will do better.

Now the good stuff. As a reporter, I have attended dozens of graduation ceremonies, but like everyone else, these two were my first in several years where I got to celebrate the students moving on to new chapters in life.

What I walked away with after watching the two ceremonies is a renewed sense of hope. It can be easy in today's world, especially for us older folks, to feel like the younger generation is so different than we were. And in many ways that is true.

But even with the differences, many of them good, there are still some amazing young men and women out there exceeding anything I could have imagined in high school and college.

Several students stuck out to me as I watched the ceremonies.

First, if you read the paper here at all, you are probably aware of Dom Montiel. A senior at Marshfield, Montiel was the player of the year in Class 4A football as he led Marshfield to the state title.

He also starred on the basketball team that made the state tournament and was second team all-state in baseball. That alone made Montiel stand out among his peers.

But what I learned over the weekend impressed me even more. While becoming one of the most accomplished athletes in Marshfield history, Montiel also shined in the classroom, graduating as one of the school's valedictorians.

Oh, and he was also the senior class president.

If I were to be, I would say this young man is going places.

And that brings me to Lucas Stephens. On Saturday night, Stephens graduated with honors from Marshfield High School.

That is an accomplishment on its own.

But what makes Stephens stand apart is what he did Friday afternoon.

One day before he picked up his high school diploma, Stephens walked across the podium during the SWOCC graduation and picked up his diploma after earning two degrees. All while in high school. Oh, and as he graduated from SWOCC, he did so as one of the school's valedictorians.

Keep an eye on this young man, too.

My favorite part of every graduation ceremony is listening to the students talking. In many parts of the country, the speakers are the top students, but the two ceremonies I attended did things a little different.

I listened as five students, one at SWOCC and four at Marshfield, overcame their nerves and addressed their classmates, teachers, parents and friends.

And they were all eloquent, seemingly unfazed and obviously well educated. Our schools may not be perfect, but they are clearly doing something right.

I'll close by paraphrasing Heidi Ositis, an art teacher at Marshfield who addressed the students. Ositis received one of the loudest applauses of the night when she was announced as the speaker, and then she told her story. Before becoming an art teacher five years ago, Ositis tried everything - bartender, counselor, therapist and much more, She was actually taking psychiatry classes when she took an art elective and found her calling.

What Ositis told the students might have gone over their heads, but for those of us who are a little older, this is what she said. "It's never too late to change your path." It's never too late to go back to school, it's never too late to start a new career, it's never too late to change who you are.

You certainly don't have to change, but there's some freedom in knowing it's not too late if you want to.

Letters to the Editor Confessions of an evangelical during Pride Month

I was raised in an evangelical church in the years before that identity was cemented in a conservative political perspective.

For me, my evangelical church meant community, support, meaning and purpose.

That evangelical church pointed me toward a liberal arts education which valued study, knowledge, scholarship and growth. I was encouraged not to be afraid of new ideas, including those concerning theology and Biblical literature.

By the 1980s, I was reading a book on homosexual portrayals in the Bible. It considered history, culture and language in order to understand a more accurate interpretation of these scriptures. Combined with information on human physiological sexual diversity, of which I was becoming aware, I journeyed to a new place in which I could better understand and accept the emotional and psychological, as well as sexual diversity that some experience.

I have not been alone on this journey. This continuing theological development by some raised in evangelical churches rarely makes the news. Their work reaching out and joining those of other traditions in efforts to make a just, loving world, can find it difficult to overcome the headlines generated by the political manipulation of, and the participation by, many in the evangelical community caught up over the years in a backlash against the civil rights movement and an egalitarian, democratic, pluralistic society in general.

My hope is that those raised in more recent versions of the evangelical church, especially the young, will realize that it is part of their tradition to question, search, learn and grow as they work with others to create what philosopher-theologian Josiah Royce and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. called the beloved community.

Why I'm running

My name is Deena Gisholt, and I am running for the Board of Coos Curry Electric.

For the past month, I’ve heard that there are rumors out there, with regards to my non-support of Beacon Broadband. The rumors are simply not true, but no one has bothered to ask me.

I was asked to run for the board position before the Beacon Broadband issue arose. I believe I was asked so there would be representation from the Coquille, Fairview, Dora, Myrtle Point, Broadbent and Bridge areas.

It had nothing to do with current leadership or Beacon Broadband.

I believe in transparency, but I also know that when a person is elected to a Board, they have a vote. By casting your vote, your voice is heard. Whether the vote goes your way or not, you have the responsibility to support the majority.

Coos Curry Electric is important to the communities they serve, not only providing power and eventually broadband service, but providing jobs, offering a charitable foundation of giving, educational resources for members, including creative projects for children and scholarships, to mention a few.

I ask that you support CCEC, whether you cast your vote for me or someone else.

Thank you, Deena Gisholt Coquille

Find the facts

Heard from social media and spread by school children, "a police officer murdered a woman." This kind of misinformation has invaded all of society lately.

There is misinformation of all kinds spread on all kinds of social media.

As stated in the newspaper, a previous police officer of North Bend did not kill anyone. In fact, the one that did is in jail. Yes, they share a last name. But the fact that many people believed what was on social media as factual information is concerning. Please find the facts before accusing someone and spreading rumors about that person. Teach your children about the limitations of social media.

What is it?

What is it that makes these gun extremists flip-off and “coal-roll” with their obscenely huge diesel pickups towards the concerned people demonstrating to save lives from future mass shootings? What is it about the peaceful protest that threatens them so much?

I think they’ve bought into the NRA propaganda that any mention of regulation of gun ownership automatically means “taking your guns away.” It’s not true, but try to convince the gun-huggers …

The 2nd Amendment begins with "... a well regulated militia ..." Do background checks qualify?

Terry Moore North Bend

To Keep and to Bear

“To provide for the common defense” is in the Preamble, listed as one of the six reasons why, in 1783, the Constitution of the United States of America was written. “Common Defense” is what the militia did in those days, and the need for a “well regulated militia” was why the 2nd Amendment was added in 1791. The confusion comes in the last line which says, “to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.” To bear arms? In 1791 arms were borne by the militia. To keep arms? In 1791 arms were kept in the armory of the militia.

Numerous arms manufacturers and sellers have become very wealthy with the help of the mis-reading in 2008 of the 27 words of the Second Amendment by five conservative justices of the Supreme Court. They mis-read it to mean that it was talking about individual rights, not the militia. (An excellent example of how “originalist” jurists can make it look like the founders meant anything they want them to mean). That mis-reading has also been central in the gun related death of more than 30,000 people every year from suicide, accident and murder. The number of deaths from guns is increasing as we speak.

Retired Associate Justice of the Supreme Court John Paul Stevens called for repeal of the 2nd Amendment.

Not a bad idea, if only it could be done. Collectors, hunters and those with a legitimate self defense need could register their guns and receive a permit, they are not the problem. But repeal, of course, is politically impossible right now. We need to start thinking of gun ownership the way we think of smoking cigarettes in public places: considered reprehensible by almost everyone. Only then can enough like-minded politicians be elected and a solution to the gun problem be found. It will be a long time coming, while gun related deaths continue to grow in numbers.

Southwestern swim, wrestling teams awarded NJCAA Sport Opportunity Grant Southwestern Oregon Community College’s Athletic Department was awarded a $1,000 grant from the National Junior College Athletic Association Foundation to assist in sustaining swimming and women’s wrestling at Southwestern.

The NJCAA Sport Opportunity Grant was created to support the addition and growth of two-year collegiate sports.

“The NJCAA Foundation is excited to further support the growth of NJCAA member colleges and the sport programs they offer through the newly created NJCAA Sport Opportunity Grant,” said Brian Luckett, NJCAA Foundation executive director. “The ability to provide this funding for the first time ever is a testament to the importance and growth of two-year collegiate athletics. The NJCAA Foundation looks forward to this initiative’s impact as NJCAA member colleges continue to create opportunities for student-athletes across the country.”

The women’s wrestling program, which started at Southwestern in 2010, has grown over the years and officially became a part of the NJCAA during the 2021-22 school year.

The men’s and women’s swim teams started in the fall of 2014 and recently finished as national runners-up at the 2022 NJCAA Men’s and Women’s Swimming and Diving National Championship.

Both programs continue

to work to grow their sport by adding equipment needs and recruiting student-athletes from all

over the world.

“We are honored to be chosen for this grant from the NJCAA and are

extremely excited about using these funds towards supporting our student-athletes,” said Mike Herbert,

director of athletics at Southwestern. “The funding we received will go towards purchasing much

needed equipment to help our student-athletes train so they can compete at a high-level year after year.”

Oregon schools, emergency services buildings receive seismic retrofit grants Business Oregon has awarded 36 seismic rehabilitation grants this week for an overall 2022 award total of $80,851,799 in the eighth round of funding from the Seismic Rehabilitation Grant Program.

These grants provide funding for improvements to make the buildings that communities depend on in the face of a seismic disaster stronger and safer.

The Seismic Rehabilitation Grant Program is a competitive grant program from the state of Oregon that provides funding for the seismic rehabilitation of critical public buildings, particularly public schools and emergency services facilities. It is one of the infrastructure programs that Business Oregon administers to create livable and prosperous communities, in addition to the agency’s business development work.

Public K-12 school

districts, community colleges, and education service districts are eligible for this grant program.

For emergency services facilities, the emphasis is on first responder buildings including hospital buildings with acute inpatient care facilities, fire stations, police stations, sheriff's offices, and 9-1-1 centers.

This year’s grants bring the award total to 299 schools and 133 emergency services buildings that have been awarded funding for improvements since the program’s first awards in 2009. The program was created by the Oregon Legislature in 2005 and transferred to Business Oregon in 2014.

DEAR ABBY By Abigail Van Buren WEDDING PLANNING LEADS TO SHOWDOWN OVER SISTER'S BEAU

DEAR ABBY: I am engaged to be married, and I'm over-the-moon excited.

My grown daughter will be my maid of honor, and I had all my bridesmaids picked out. My sister is the issue.

Her new boyfriend (she goes through a lot of them) makes my daughter uncomfortable.

He has tried repeatedly to add her to his social media accounts, some of which contain disturbing sexual content.

I told my sister that while I want her in the wedding, my daughter comes first, and he won't be allowed to be around us or to participate.

My sister has, predictably, sided with him. She insists I'm unreasonable and that he's a great guy, although she has known him for only three months. Am I wrong? -- BRIDE-TO-BE IN TEXAS DEAR BRIDE-TO-BE: You are not wrong; you have your priorities in order. If your daughter intuitively feels your sister's boyfriend of three months makes her uncomfortable, her feelings should be respected. Stick to your guns and, if necessary, be prepared to replace your sister in the wedding party.

DEAR ABBY: My son and his wife struggled

through the COVID-19 pandemic. He lost his job. My wife and I supported them through this period by paying their mortgage and most of their living expenses. He has recently started a good, career-oriented job.

However, his wife recently discovered that he has been secretly spending beyond their means for years on "toys," and that unbeknownst to her, he has decimated their savings and accumulated substantial debt. When she confronted him, he said he had a "spending addiction." To top it off, they have a pandemic baby, our granddaughter. We are at our wits' end. What should we do? -- NOT MADE OF MONEY DEAR NOT MADE: What should you do? Stop opening your wallet. The real question is: What is your SON going to do about this? If he's truly addicted to spending beyond his means (people sometimes have been known to attempt to cope with depression by shopping), he needs more help than you can give. If he wants to regain control of his life, he should consider joining Spenders Anonymous (spenders.org) or Debtors

Anonymous (debtorsanonymous.org). Both are 12-step programs for individuals who are in the same situation as your son.

DEAR ABBY: My lifelong friend is bipolar. She refuses to get counseling but does take medication. While I try to be compassionate and encouraging, she has morphed into a complete drama queen. If she has a headache, she is sure it's brain cancer.

If she has a hangnail, it will undoubtedly require amputation. She excels at constant whining. I can't just turn my back on her, but sometimes I have had my fill of "poor me." Am I being a horrible friend? -- HAVE MY LIMITS IN CALIFORNIA DEAR HAVE: No. From your description, your friend is not only bipolar, but also may suffer from hypochondria. Because you find her complaints stressful and aggravating, you have the right to ration your exposure to her behavior. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

Amy Moss Strong named the volunteer of the month by the Greater Bandon Association Amy Moss Strong was recognized by as Bandon’s Volunteer of the Month at the June 6 meeting of Bandon’s City Council. GBA presents this award to one the many outstanding individuals that contribute to making Bandon a better community to live in.

Amy was presented the award in the form of a commemorative plaque and a gift certificate from Bandon Coffee Café.

All of us in Bandon are appreciative of Amy’s professional work keeping the community informed through her work with the Bandon Western World, the World, the Coffee Break and now the Bandon Buzz. But it is all the other volunteer work that Amy contributes to the community that has earned our thanks and this special recognition.

Her volunteer work has touched so many distinct parts of community life in Bandon.

In the arts, Amy has been a board member and publicist for Bandon Showcase and Bandon Playhouse. She has volunteered at our schools as an ASPIRE Advisor.

Our seven food programs used

to fundraise and solicit donations independently until they realized it was more effective to do it together through Bandon Feeds the Hungry. Amy is their coordinator.

She has been a part of our community organizations. She has been a Rotary Club member for over fifteen years and has served as their President.

She has served on the Board of Directors and on the promotions committee of the Greater Bandon Association. She is a Deacon at her church and has been a Girl Scout troop leader.

In short, Amy has volunteered in one capacity or another that has touched almost everyone in this community and the Greater Bandon Association is honored to be able to present this award.

The Greater Bandon Association will be honoring one of Bandon’s many volunteers that are making a difference in the community each month.

Nominations for the July award should be e-mailed to ninerharv2@msn.com or mailed to P.O. Box 161 by close of business on June 23rd.

Face Rock Creamery named a fastest-growing private company

Face Rock Creamery has earned an inaugural spot on the Portland Business Journal’s “Fastest Growing Private 100″ List. Face Rock ranked #66 thanks to 45% growth between 2019 - 2021. The list was revealed on June 9 in Portland at an event honoring the ranked companies.

“Oregon has many exceptional private companies, and we are thrilled to be ranked among them as one of the state’s fastest growing,” shared President Greg Drobot. “The last few years have challenged us to identify strategies to grow our market presence while staying true to our values of hands-on production, local farmer support, and sustainable practices.

Every year Face Rock is available in more stores, and we love bringing a bit of Bandon to cheese lovers across the country.”

Face Rock Creamery restored cheesemaking to the Southern Oregon coast, one of the state’s historic cheddar production regions going back to the 1880s. Their goals from the beginning have been to create more local jobs, scale while maintaining traditional cheese making practices such as hand-turning cheddar, follow sustainable production practices, and bring an elevated Oregon cheese experience to consumers. Today, Face Rock has 91 employees. In September 2021, Face Rock Creamery won a $220,000 angel investment in the OregonAF program hosted by Oregon Entrepreneurs Network (OEN).

About Face Rock Creamery

Face Rock Creamery makes award winning cheddar, Monterey Jack and Fromage Blancs. Opened in 2013, Face Rock Creamery is located in Bandon on the Southern Coast of Oregon. The area has supported cheese making since the 1880s.

Face Rock cheese is available at the creamery, in its Coos Bay Café, through an online store and in retail locations across the United States.

Face Rock Creamery has become one of the fastest-growing companies in Oregon due to its wide array of cheese made from its Bandon headquarters.

AS I SEE IT: Old Bandon city hall

By MARY SCHAMEHORN Fisher in Bandon.

The first story I am sharing this week came out of the April 1926 Western World and pertains to organizing a volunteer fire department, which was granted use of the old city hall (first picture at west end of First Street) as a fire hall and headquarters of the volunteer department.

Between 50 and 60 people attended a mass meeting held at city hall to discuss the matter, with a committee of C.R. Wade, Herbert Brown, D.C. Kay, Ed Capps, Vic Breuer and J.C. Page appointed to draw up the necessary by-laws and city ordinances.

"It was reported that Bandon once had as good a volunteer department as there was in the state at that time. Some of the members are still in the community and there are many others who have had experience in other cities, whose assistance will be solicited.

"Ideas suggested and gleaned from the discussion indicate that the fire chief and those of the department reporting at fires would receive compensation."

They felt "the second floor could be converted into sleeping quarters for a number of the single men of the department, which would assure someone being at the place to run the truck at night.

"J.E. Walstrom stated that he could provide a place at his warehouse for a small hose cart with some 300 feet of hose which might be used along the waterfront to connect up with the tug and thus expedite service from that source.

He also suggested that hose cart stations be placed in various parts of town in the residential district."

Walstrom's building was on First Street about where The Wheelhouse now sits.

The old city hall is now the site of Edgewater's.

I have chosen a picture of Jerry's restaurant (across from the present port marketplace building) to help illustrate the next story from July 1929.

"At the meeting of the chamber of commerce held at Jerry's Wednesday noon, a resolution was passed asking the city council to raise the license fee for medicine shows to at least $50 a day. The license fee at the present time is $10 which is considered altogether too light in view of the fact that these attractions pay no taxes, nor contribute in any way to the city's welfare while they offer competition to various business institutions that do contribute to the city and they take much money out of the city.

"Similar action has been taken at Marshfield where the city put the license fee at $100 per day and in addition made the fire regulations for tents so stringent that they are apt to discourage any show of that kind in the future.

"Better protection against fly-by-night clothing salesmen and other itinerary merchandising people were also discussed. In Marshfield an ordinance requires a new business institution to show a year's lease on a location or to put up a bond of several hundred dollars before being permitted to open up. This keeps out the traveling merchants who use a vacant building for a few days and unload a lot of questionable merchandise upon the public without paying its share toward the upkeep of the city."

The third picture features the first Cranberry Court, taken in November of 1947.

Standing in the back, from left, are Virginia Corrie, sponsored by the Randolph Community Club; Jeanette Danielson, Bandon VFW Post; Janet Helme, Westmost Grange; center, Queen Ruth Kreutzer, Langlois Community Club; front left, Joanne Smith, American Legion, and Pat Whalen, Bandon Active Club.

Virginia Corrie was the mother of Corrie Gant, who lives with her husband Paul

Events at the first festival included the coronation on the stage of Ocean Crest School, a court's luncheon at The Minute Cafe, the Cranberry Bowl football game, which saw Bandon defeat Myrtle Creek 13-9, and the festival dance held at The Barn. Art Dobney was master of ceremonies for the coronation, with Mayor Rudy Backlund crowning the new queen.

The newspaper article said, "When the judges' decision had been announced, Miss Kreutzer knelt to receive the crown.

At that point a pair, who almost 'stole the show,' began marching to the stage from the rear of the auditorium, one bearing the crown and the other the queen's bouquet. They were little Mr. Michael Dobney, son of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Dobney, and Miss Judy Brown, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Vern Brown. Manager of Utilities John Fasnacht presented her with a key to the city.

--------------------------------The news is good: Bandon will have a Cranberry Court. Princesses for the Sept. 9-11 festival include Hallie Minkler, KayDence Augsburger and Rhiannon Green.

The court directors are Angela Cardas Meredith, Briana Hutchens and Kimberly Carrero. I will have more info about the princesses as it is released by the festival committee.

--------------------------------I was saddened to learn that one of my classmates, Larry Sabin (Class of 1957) died at the age of 83 Thursday morning, surrounded by his wife Juanice and family. His children and their families include Janice Huntley, Pam Johnson, Wendy Sabin, Rick Sabin and Larry Sabin Jr., all of whom live in Bandon.

A retired truck driver, Larry had served as president of the Rural Fire Protection Board of Directors for over 40 years, according to a family member.

I was also sorry to hear that Pat Taylor, long-time owner of The Minute Cafe had died, but I do not know the details. I believe she lived in the state of Washington. Among Pat's survivors are her daughters Edith Vierck and Pauline Taylor and their families.

I learned recently that Bandon native Don Sweet, last surviving member of the W.J. Sweet family which included Piercy, A.W. (Bill), Helen Mayse and Anne Felsheim, died May 18 in Portola Valley, Calif., at the age of 98. His wife of 73 years, Beth, died less than three months earlier. They had five sons, including Richard, who died at age four of childhood leukemia. Surviving sons are David, Scott, Stuart and Tom and their families.

Don was a graduate of Port Orford High School and Stanford University, and attended Midshipman's School at Cornell as part of the Navy V-12 program.

--------------------------------I've learned that there is a new member of the Bandon School Board following the resignation of board member Brianna Quattrocchi.

Anthony Zunino of Freedom Graphics has been named to fill the vacancy.

He will join board chair Angela Cardas Meredith, vice chair David Hisel, Ryan Sherman, Stan Avery, Greg Looney and A.J. Kimball.

--------------------------------I was concerned when I read a front-page article in The World last week about a Bunker Hill man, George Landon, whose home was broken into while he was a way for two and a half days on Memorial weekend.

Stolen was his $300,000 coin collection, many of which were rare.

"I deeply believe it's drug people in Bandon," Landon said when asked who might have done this.

He is offering a $15,000 reward for information

leading to the arrest and conviction of the person responsible, and an additional $10,000 for return of his belongings.

Anyone who doesn't know about the huge uptick in crime in Coos County must be living under a rock. In a three-day period last week, two women were shot and killed in separate incidents in the Coos Bay/Cape Arago area. One was found dead in her home and the other was found dead along Cape Arago highway.

It is important to remember: hard drugs are essentially legal in Oregon.

Let that sink in while you try to understand how this happened. The people of Oregon essentially approved an initiative petition that would allow people to possess a user-grade amount of hard drugs (meth, cocaine and heroin) with nothing more than a $100 ticket, which most don't even bother to pay, according to the authorities I have talked to.

Even if we had more jail beds available, which we desperately need, things won't turn around until we address the serious drug problem, created by the most permissive drug law in the country. Time to ask the legislative leaders where they were when sponsors of the measure (BM110) were spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on TV ads urging people to vote for it.

--------------------------------Don't forget that the next Alive After Five wine event is this Friday, June 17, from 5 to 7. Maps and glasses, for $10, can be purchased at the picnic shelter on the Port boardwalk.

--------------------------------There is some good news on the scene. Someone representing the Oregon Nurses Association posted on Facebook that "thanks to advocacy of nurses, community members and elected officials, we are proud to announce we've been able to save the psychiatric unit at Bay Area Hospital! Special thanks to Senator Jeff Merkley, state representative Rob Nosse (of District 42/Portland area) and the Coos County Commissioners and board members who fought to preserve this vital resource."

--------------------------------I continue to have strangers knock on my door, with the latest being late Saturday afternoon.

As I was heading to my sister's, I noticed two men in hard hats and reflective vests talking to a woman who lives nearby. I do not answer the door for strangers, but apparently a

lot of people do, and I am not sure why considering that one of the two home invasions that occurred in the Bandon area recently involved two men in hard hats and reflective vests pretending to be service people. They weren't; instead they held a gun to the homeowner's head. If Ziply or anyone else wants to contact me, they can send me a letter or an email. Or advertise in Coffee Break.

But stay away from my front door, uninvited!

Until we can figure out how to come up with a badge that can be seen through the peep hole in the front door, signifying that they have a permit to sell door to door, I simply would not open the door.

--------------------------------Coos Health and Wellness sent out a press release this week advising that levels of COVID-19 in waste water samples have been steadily climbing in Coos County, to levels seen back in February when case counts were high.

They are advising people to get vaccinated and keep up with boosters; keep at-home tests ready in your cabinet; don't go to work if you are ill; asking employers to allow employees to work remotely when possible; wear a mask if you were recently positive for Covid, continue to educate yourself; wear a mask when you feel the need to, wash your hands and stay away from others when they are not feeling well.

U.S. Junior Amateur nears at Bandon Dunes

South Coast residents can watch future stars compete at resort in late July The public is invited to watch the top golfers of the future when Bandon Dunes Golf Resort hosts the U.S. Junior Amateur in late July.

The event is July 25-30 and there is no admission charge for spectators who want to take in the action.

“The 2022 U.S. Junior Amateur Championship is an opportunity for golf fans to watch the best players of tomorrow compete,” said Jeff Simonds, the assistant general manager at Bandon Dunes. “It’s an up-close experience that takes away grandstands, ropes and other distractions and leaves you with incredible golf played on the picturesque Southern Oregon Coast.”

The tournament begins with 18 holes of qualifying for the entire field of 264 players on Monday, July 25 and Tuesday, July 26. The players will each play one round on Bandon Dunes and one round on Bandon Trails, half the field on each course each day.

After the two qualifying rounds, the top 64 golfers advance to the match play portion of the event, which begins with the round of 64 on July 27, followed by both the round of 32 and the round of 16 on July 28.

The quarterfinal and semifinal matches are scheduled for July 29 and the championship match on July 30.

All the individual matches will be played on the Bandon Dunes course.

Fans who take in the action should expect to see a lot of great golf.

“The U.S. Junior Amateur Championship is the U.S. Open of junior golf,” Simonds said.

“It’s the best 264 junior golfers in the world in the most com-

petitive environment. For those playing, it’s six days of intense golf. For those watching, it’s an opportunity to see the next generation of PGA Tour stars at the precipice of their career.”

The event has a rich history.

Tiger Woods won the title from 1991 to 1993 and Jordan Spieth won it twice. Scottie Scheffler and Will Zalatoris also are past champions.

The defending champion is Nick Dunlap of Huntsville, Ala., who beat Cohen Trolio of West Point, Miss., 3 and 2 in the 36hold championship match at The Country Club of North Carolina.

The tournament will be the eighth USGA event hosted by Bandon Dunes, following the 2006 Curtis Cup, the 2007 U.S. Mid-Amateur, the 2011 U.S. Women’s Amateur Public Links and U.S. Amateur Public Links, the 2015 U.S. Women’s Amateur Four-Ball, the 2019 U.S. Amateur Four-Ball and the 2020 U.S. Amateur.

Qualifying for the tournament started June 1 and continues through July 1 at 57 sites.

The in-state qualifier was held on Sunday at the OGA Golf Course in Woodburn. The top qualifiers were Cole Rueck of Corvallis and Miles Eastman of Portland, who each shot 2-under.

Rueck is the son of Oregon State women’s basketball coach Scott Rueck.

The other two qualifiers for the tournament from Sunday were Collin Hodgkinson of Beaverton and Jordan Giles of Talent, who both shot 1-under and outlasted six others who also finished at that number in a playoff for the final spot. The two alternates from the qualifier, also from Oregon, were Ethan Tseng of Portland and Lucas Paul of Salem.

Zoo takes in 10 tiny turtles at conservation lab Ten tiny northwestern pond turtles have arrived at the Oregon Zoo’s conservation lab. The zoo is “head-starting” the endangered reptiles, caring for them until next spring when they will be large enough to have a fighting chance in the wild.

Visitors can watch the hatchlings grow inside the zoo’s Nature Exploration Station. For video of the new arrivals, visit bit.ly/10-tiny-turtles “The hatchlings are especially vulnerable at this stage,” said Sara Morgan, senior keeper for the zoo’s Great Northwest area.

“They’re smaller than a walnut — so tiny, a bullfrog can gobble them up right out of the nest.”

The American bullfrog, native to the eastern United States but considered invasive here, is the largest frog species on the continent. It can tip the scales at more than a pound and has been driving pond turtles and a host of other small, vulnerable aquatic species to the brink of extinction.

In late May, Morgan and her

colleagues helped Washington Fish and Wildlife biologists retrieve the turtle hatchlings from sites in the Columbia Gorge, transporting them to the zoo conservation lab. With heat lamps and plentiful food, the turtles experience summer year-round so they don’t go into hibernation. Once they reach about 50 grams (a little more than 2 ounces), they are returned to their ponds and monitored for safety.

“We make sure they’re safe and warm, and have all the food they need,” Morgan said. “When they go back to the wild, they’re only about a year old but they’re as big as 3-year-old turtles.”

The northwestern pond turtle, also known as the western Photo by Michael Durham, courtesy of the Oregon Zoo. pond turtle, is listed as an One of the tiny northwestern pond turtle hatchlings that recently arrived at the Oregon Zoo.

Oregon State research sheds light on how bacteria communicate their way to causing infection

By STEVE LUNDEBERG Guest Article

Oregon State University scientists have identified proteins that prevent a bacterial cell from becoming misguided by its own messaging, allowing it to instead wait for collective communication from its group.

The research is important because understanding this type of signaling, known as quorum sensing and integral to bacterial pathogens, opens the door to potential new drugs that can disrupt it and thwart infection.

Findings were published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

Martin Schuster, a professor in OSU's Department of Microbiology in the colleges of Science and Agricultural Sciences, and doctoral student Parker Smith study quorum sensing in the pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a gram-negative bacterium that displays a variety of social behaviors.

P. aeruginosa, a common cause of lung and wound infections among hospital patients and people with weakened immune systems, is a model organism for quorum sensing research with a well understood signaling circuit, the scientists said.

“Sometimes single-celled organisms need to work together with other cells,” Schuster said. “Bacteria and other single-celled microbes can coordinate behaviors and act as a group via quorum sensing, in which cells produce and sense a small chemical signal that is shared within the population.”

As the signal is released from cells and reaches a high enough concentration in their environment, a quorum is achieved – certain genes are simultaneously activated and specific group behaviors are set in motion, Smith said.

It’s a strength-in-numbers approach that allows bacteria to join forces to do things they could not do by themselves, like causing infection in animals and plants, acquiring certain nutrients and competing against other microbes.

“Bacterial infection often involves toxins that

only harm the host at high levels, when produced by all bacterial cells at once,” Smith said.

A major unresolved question about quorum sensing, the researchers said, has been why the signal that’s produced inside an individual cell is not sensed by that same cell before it is released, spurring the cell into premature, solo action.

“In essence, what prevents signal ‘short-circuiting’ from happening?” Schuster said. “Our research addresses this question that’s fundamental to our understanding of quorum sensing.”

Smith and Schuster learned that a set of proteins called antiactivators are crucial for short-circuit prevention. The proteins work as a quorum sensing “tuner” by causing cells to be less sensitive to the quorum signal.

The researchers devel-

oped bacterial strains that lacked two different types of antiactivator proteins and then looked at quorum sensing behaviors in individual cells.

Coast Guard holds change of command for husband and wife Coast Guard Station Coos Bay held a change of command ceremony Friday morning at the rescue station in Charleston.

It was a unique ceremony where Master Chief Scott Slade assumed command of Station Coos Bay from his wife, Chief Warrant Officer Beth Slade.

Capt. Breanna Knutson, commander, Coast Guard Sector North Bend, presided over the event.

Master Chief Slade will now oversee the operations of the 45 crew members stationed at the rescue boat unit in Charleston.

He will also oversee Station Coquille River, a seasonal station located in Bandon.

CWO Slade is slated to assume command of Coast Guard Station Yaquina Bay during a ceremony scheduled later this month in Newport. Master Chief Slade was previously the Officer

in Charge at Station Umpqua River in Winchester Bay. “They are an amazing crew,” said CWO Slade. “And this was probably the easiest change of command since we are both so familiar with everyone and they already know their new commanding officer. I’m glad to be handing off such a top-notch crew because I fully believe they are at their best right now.”

Both Beth and Scott Slade enlisted in the Coast Guard nearly 25 years ago. Almost all of their time in the Coast Guard so far has been spent at units on either the Oregon or Washington Coast.

The Slade’s honed their boat-handling skills here in the Pacific Northwest and trained at the National Motor Lifeboat School at Cape Disappointment.

Beth and Scott both received the distinguished title of Surfman, #321 and #324 respectively.

CWO Slade received her commission as an officer in 2013.

“It’s so special to be taking over the crew from my wife,” said Master Chief Slade. “The expectation is high and the crew is ready. It’s amazing what Beth has done and built here. Sort of intimidating taking over after someone who is so squared away but I am so excited to see what the future has to offer.”

A Coast Guard rescue unit has been present in the Coos Bay area since 1878 when the first life-saving station was located at Cape Arago.

The change of command ceremony is a time-honored military tradition that marks a transfer of total responsibility and authority from one individual to another.

The ceremony is conducted to formally demonstrate the continuity of authority within a U.S. military command.

Varga shines in class, on piano, and life Amongst the many new graduates this spring is Jeffrey Varga, a young man who has begun to make a name for himself as the collaborative pianist at Marshfield High School, accompanying soloists and choirs. It is a position he took on in the fall of 2021 while also dual-enrolled at Winter Lakes High School and Southwestern Oregon Community College. A recent inductee into the National Honor Society, he was also selected as one of three valedictorians for the graduating class of Winter Lakes. Varga will earn his high school diploma this

month while also completing the requirements for the associates of arts Oregon transfer degree and a geographic information systems certificate.

Alongside his academic pursuits, Varga earned his Eagle Scout rank in October 2021. Working with the Coos History Museum, historian Steve Greif and numerous volunteers, he produced a series of short video documentaries featuring drone footage and historical archive photographs entitled Bay Area Short Films. The short films can be accessed by a physical map with embedded QR

codes located in the museum lobby. Varga created the map himself using ArcMap GIS software. The films can also be accessed directly from the Coos History Museum's website. https:// cooshistory.org/bayWhile his academic acumen is diverse, he is most passionate about classical piano studying under the tutelage of master teacher Lynne Kuhn.

He completed the music theory program at Southwestern Oregon Community College. During the COVID quarantine, he it took upon himself to create a musical analysis of

Frédéric Chopin’s Ballade No.4 in F minor which incorporated biographical anecdotes and musical excerpts from renowned pianists, including Gadjiev, Horowitz, and Rubinstein.

The Poet at the Piano: Chopin’s Fourth Ballade, a collegiate level thesis, was undertaken purely for his own interest to honor his favorite composer.

Jeffrey recently participated in the Oregon Music Teachers Association Level X Sylla-bus, earning the accolades of successful evaluation with distinction.

Syllabus is a comprehensive music curriculum

that covers technique, music theory, sight reading, rhythm reading and repertoire. The ten levels of syllabus are graduated in difficulty and challenge students to achieve musical goals. After completion of a level, students are assessed by a master teacher who provides a helpful critique. Students who successfully complete Level X are invited to participate in the annual Oregon conference senior recital. Varga chose to perform Chopin’s Nocturne Op.55 No.1 for

this occasion, where-upon he will receive his senior award and trophy for completing the highest level of the Syllabus program.

In the coming year, Varga plans to continue to advance his professional career, accompanying and teaching private piano lessons as he prepares to audition for music school. His primary goal is dual degrees in piano performance and music education; he may also pursue a degree in spatial data science.

Four members of the Coquille Chess Club, Dustin Herker, Frank Morse, Mackinley Warncke and Jason Herker, traveled to Las Vegas to compete in the National Open.

Coquille Chess team plays in Las Vegas The Fantastic Four Chess players traveled to Las Vegas last week and suffered record breaking heat but fortunately the tournament hall was air conditioned. The four Coquille chess players played two games a day for four days, each game lasting at least two hours and up to five hours. They played against opponents from all over the country.

Coach Dr. Nancy Keller noted that by learning to play the long game, they entered a depth of thinking that cannot be obtained in shorter time controls. They analyzed more deeply and thought more moves ahead which

turned into a great learning experience. Their games became more tactical and strategic. It also, unfortunately, made for deeper emotions for a loss after spending so much time figuring out what they thought was the best moves. Analysis after the games became strong teaching moments and the players advanced significantly in their chess skills.

They made new friends from all over the country and between games were all working on improving skills.

Results: Dustin Herker scored 4 out of 7 games.

He is a senior so this was his last year.

Frank Morse scored 4 out of 7 games.

Mackinley Warncke scored 2.5 out of 7 games.

Jason Herker scored 1.5 out of 7 games.

Dustin and Frank scored a “plus score” (winning more than half their games) and thus received $50 gift certificates which they immediately used to buy chess books so next year they will even be better players. All four are excited to improve their chess and want to return next year to Las Vegas’s National Open, their favorite tournament.

The Chamber Minute: Why be a member?

In the past few months we have talked about the various teams, activities and opportunities the chamber is involved in. But why be a chamber member? I ask that question periodically of our directors, who are your friends and neighbors.

Here’s a little of what they had to say.

• I belong to the Chamber because I believe it “Takes a village to make good things happen.” I see the Bay Area Chamber of Commerce as a strong leader for our Coos County village and I am proud to be an active member. I take very seriously my role in community service and helping small businesses succeed.

• I am involved in the Chamber because I want to contribute to the success and well being of my community and feel like my involvement with the

chamber gives me the opportunity to do just that.

• I joined to begin with as a new business in town.

I wanted exposure for my new business. I knew it would be the best possible way for my business and myself to be introduced to the business community in the new town/community I had moved to and started my business. I also knew that is was the best way for me to network with business people. I wanted to find out the best electrician, plumber, real estate agent, dentist, doctor, etc.

The only way to do that is to network with other like minded people....and for me, that was business people!

• Although focused on working with businesses and the business environment the Chamber also promotes networking, education, and celebrating the community’s success-

es. We help when things may not be going well for individual businesses as well as the entire area through various programs at the College and Small Business Development Center.

• I am involved in the Chamber because I believe in our community. A community is only as strong and healthy as its residents.

We have a lot of positive things going for our Bay Area and by getting out and talking to our citizens, supporting our schools and businesses, you can’t help but feel good about our community and what we have to offer. The more I learn, the more I want to share with others because good things are happening all around us if you just take the time to look and to listen.

• I am involved in the Chamber because: I love what the Chamber rep-

ward movement I am seeing. We have moved from a quaint networking group to building a business advocacy powerhouse. I feel we are making a difference in our area. Our voice is being heard and we visually representing our almost 550 members. We are up in Salem, we are at the County, we are building connections with key people and businesses to help move this area forward.

So, if you want to make a difference for your business and your community, there is a spot for you at the Chamber.

Remember our business is helping your business.

And like us on Facebook.

(Timm Slater is executive director of the Bay Area Chamber of Commerce. For more information on your Chamber, email timmslater@oregonsbayarea.org.)

resents; “Our Business is helping Your Business”. I want to help make a difference in our community and it is time to give back to it also. It may be hard to believe but there are 20-other board of directors that feel the same way. Each director brings his or her own passion and expertise to the chamber. And it is a great way to network and meet new people in our committee.

• I am active with the Bay Area Chamber of Commerce because I feel strongly that the business community supports one another and works to encourage the growth of our region. We must get back on a sustainable foundation where we are better able to provide for ourselves with the amazing resources that are unique to the Southern Oregon Coast.

• I belong to the Chamber because I like the for-

members are $4 for adults, $3 for seniors, and $2 for children. Prices for the general public are $5 for adults, $4 for seniors, and $3 for children. This film is rated R so please be advised.
