open along the entire Oregon Coast from the Columbia River to the California border. But to the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, the stretch of ocean coastline in Tillamook County has a problem. The state agency has issued a public warning. It has closed the recreation harvest of razor clams from Tillamook Head (south of Seaside) to the California border for elevated levels of domain acid on the coast. It is still open for clamming from Tillamook Head north to the Columbia River. The announcement includes closure of the harvesting of mussels from the Columbia River to Cascade Head near Lincoln City because of elevated levels of shellfish toxin. South of Cascade Head, the harvesting of mussels is still permitted.

Crews construct fish friendly tunnel in Manzanita under 101 By Jordan Wolfe

T

he fish of Neahkahnie Creek are currently receiving a big upgrade in the form of a 200 foot long tunnel being built underneath Highway 101 in Manzanita. The project, which began construction in early 2015, is replacing a failing culvert for the fish and has been designed and is being built by LRL Construction in Tillamook under project manager Justin Laviolette, according to owner Dan Laviolette. Laviolette says each piece of the tunnel weighs around 57,000 pounds, is moved with a

350 ton crane and is engineered to have beveled female and male ends that interlock. The tunnel is more than doubling the size of the old, six foot diameter culvert. According to ODOT’s website, “Neahkahnie Creek is listed on the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife as the highest priority for fish passage due to excellent spawning habitat within the upper reaches of the existing lake.” Laviolette says he and his team have taken every precaution to not endanger or pollute the habitat of the fish, citing the difficulty of protecting the area during winter and the rains.

n April Saturday 23, at approximately 3:15PM, OSP Troopers and emergency personnel responded to the report of a two vehicle head-on crash on Highway 101 near milepost 28 (just north of Cannon Beach). Preliminary information indicates a 2011 Hyundai sport utility was traveling southbound on Highway 101 when it crossed over the centerline and struck a northbound 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe head-on. After the impact both vehicles came to rest on the highway. The driver of the Hyundai, Gregory W Heron, and his passenger, Martha H Heron (both age 64 and from Manzanita) were pronounced deceased on scene. The driver of the Chevrolet, Diana R Feke, age 57, and Jethro J Feke, age 59 (both of West Linn) received non-life threatening injuries. Both were taken to an area hospital for treatment. Highway 101 was closed for about three and a half hours while the investigation was conducted. OSP was assisted by the Clatsop County Medical Examiner, Cannon Beach Fire Department, Cannon Beach Police Department, and the Oregon Department of Transportation. Cause of the crash is still under investigation. More information will released when it becomes available.

una fish has just saved Garibaldi Grade School’s backpack program. Twenty-one hundred cans of tuna fish, that is. Backpack programs across the county aim to provide low-income or homeless children guaranteed meals over the weekend, when they may not know when or where their next meal will come from. “Many children have difficulty filling the food gap between Friday afternoon and Monday morning,” says Nehalem Elementary School’s coordinator, Rose Hucek. She was approached by the Manager of Les Schwab Tire Center in Tillamook, Pat Dean, about a donation. Dean says, “we offered a cash donation to Rose, but she said Garibaldi’s program had recently run out of funds, so because of her,

we donated $1,000 to Garibaldi.” Family Resource Coordinator for Garibaldi Grade School, Terry Houchins says, “the donation kept the program going. If we just had that, it would’ve, probably, kept us going until the end of the school year.” She says that Garibaldi Grade School has had a backpack program for five or six years. “I used to do a whole backpack that would feed a whole family,” Houchins says, “but Citizen photo by Jordan Wolfe this year we’ve changed to a S.H.E.

Nehalem Elementary receives $1.4 million for earthquake stabalization upgrades By Jordan Wolfe

n the event of a major earthquake, Nehalem Elementary School has been awarded a nearly 1.4 million dollar grant to retrofit escape routes of the building to help protect children and staff, according to superintendent Paul Erlebach. Representative David Gomberg, whose district encompasses the southern part of Tillamook County, says the “Seismic Rehabilitation Grant Program” comes from Business Oregon, the state’s economic development agency, who oversees the program to Citizen photo by Jordan Wolfe rehab schools and other critical public buildings so Nehalem Elementary School has been awarded a nearly 1.4 million dollar grant to retrofit escape routes of the building to they will be better prepared to withstand a major help protect children and staff. earthquake. This important tool to keep schools and

emergency buildings safe was championed by Senate President Peter Courtney, who held a media event on Friday to announce the awardees. Gomberg says, “we need to make sure our structures hold up through the quake so when the shaking stops our kids can run to high ground. And later, these public buildings will serve as support centers for families that need help. This is scary stuff, but smart investments now will save lives in the future.” Erlebach says, “the state did a drive-by assessment of all schools in Oregon and rated them all for seismic priority.” While this round of grant money went to Nehalem, the district plans to apply for Garibaldi Elementary School during the next round of applica-

tions in the fall. The grant has a list of eligible and ineligible activities that the funds may be used for. Structural improvements, architecture and engineering are eligible. However, buildings located in the Tsunami Inundation Zone are ineligible, according to Business Oregon’s website. Erlebach says that Neah-Kah-Nie Junior/Senior High School would not qualify for this round of grant money due to their location next to the Pacific Ocean. According to Erlebach, there is a two-year timeframe to utilize the grant money from the official award date. “The purpose for Nehalem Elementary’s grant is not structural,” he says, “it is to make sure we can get out of the building.”

tunnels like this from the east to west coasts. We do this same type of work for railroads.” He says that the tunnel also has the added advantage of having an active construction area without disrupting Highway 101 or the surrounding community. Laviolette says, “it’s the beauty of this design.”

he worked in Lincoln City, and donated to their community’s backpack program, had been donated 80,000 cans of mislabeled tuna fish. Dean purchased 16,000 cans and has been distributing loads to the schools across the county. “It is an inexpensive way for us to provide energy to these kids so they can get educated to become productive members of society,” Dean says. “We’re strong advocates for people to get through school. Who knows, they could be the next CEO of Les Schwab Tire Centers.” For Hucek, “hungry kids strike a chord in people.” She says she met with Nehalem Elementary School’s Principal, Kristi Woika to see if there were students who would benefit from weekend food. “We started in January, this year. Right out of the gate, we had 25 children signed up,” Hucek says. “That number is up to 34.” She says, “the program Citizen photo by Jordan Wolfe is protein based, with fresh, beautiful fruit.” Every Friday, Construction workers assist the crane by pushing the cement tunnel into place. she gives the students that are apart of the program two breakfasts, two lunches, and snacks.

Loviolette says that to help stabilize the ground while they worked, they used shotcrete on sections. “You

A priority for Hucek is to have enough food to share with a sibling that is not in school yet. She also says that if the child receives no other food source, that what is provided on Friday will be enough for the whole weekend. “If there is a three-day weekend, I make sure we put more food in,” she says. “Spring Break was difficult, because we had to try our best to give the kids 10 days worth of food.” She says that much food for the kindergartners to carry was especially difficult. Hucek, who has first and fifth grade daughters, says “They are seeing their peers in need. It is teaching them generosity, kindness and community service.” The community response has been spreading, according to Hucek. She says a third grade girl from Nehalem Elementary, asked for donations to the backpack program for her birthday and brought food and money to Hucek and helped her pack the bags. When Dean arrived with the roughly 3,000 cans of tuna for Nehalem Elementary School, he and Hucek were aided by the S.H.E. Warriors (Sharing Health and Exercise), a group of fourth and fifth grade girls. “It would’ve taken a long time to unload all of that

tuna, without those girls,” Hucek says. Planning ahead to the summer, Hucek says, “the kids are depending so much on this during the school year. We are trying to raise enough funds to provide 10 weeks of cereal and shelfstable milk.” For both Hucek and Houchins, the more they are donated, the higher quality food they are able to provide to the children. Hucek says, “the more money we are donated, the more protein we’re able to provide. These are growing bodies. It’s hard to grow a body on Top Ramen.” Houchins says, “The kids have been very excited. They told me they put tuna in their Top Ramen or in their mac ‘n’ cheese.” She says she has been considering giving the children recipes. At the current rate, Garibaldi Grade School will have enough protein-packed fish for 52 weeks. Until space is cleared for it, however, all 2,100 cans have had to stay in Houchins’ office. “It’s a conversation piece.” To get involved, or for more information: Nehalem Elementary School - Contact Rose Hucek at 503-440-9686.

New location, new home, same Kendra By Jordan Wolfe

jwolfe@countrymedia.net

Kendra Hall, along with her two children, are starting a new journey with the new Kendra’s River Inn - Food & Lodging, in Mohler. Formerly known as the Nehalem River Inn, Hall’s new business opened for lunch and dinner to the public on March 1. However, Kendra’s River Inn will also be a bed and breakfast for those staying in one of her four rooms. Front-of-house manager, and Hall’s daughter, Galena Flores says that they closed the doors on their previous business, Kendra’s Kitchen, because the building’s owner had decided to sell the property and did not renew their lease. “It is a complete blessing. Valerie Schumann and the old owner, Tom, did so much to help,” Hall says, “And I went from being totally debt-free to totally indebted - but all to friends and not any banks.” Hall will host an open house and house warming at Kendra’s River Inn on Thursday, May 19 starting at 4 p.m. “Mom will be making her favorite food. Hot dogs,” Flores says. “You tell me one person that cooks for a living that doesn’t eat junk,” Hall

retorted. “The one thing about being up here is the acceptance. The people up here are genuinely excited for us to be here and genuinely want us to succeed,” Hall says of her new North County location. This is the fourth restaurant Hall has owned in Tillamook County, the others being the Whiskey River Creek Cafe near Cape Lookout State Park, Three Capes Cafe in Netarts and Kendra’s Kitchen in Tillamook. “I have some big ideas, but we’re getting the core down and doing it right - we’ve finally gotten into a rhythm in the restaurant and now it’s time to work on the rooms.” In one of the rooms, a pair of moose antlers adorns a wall, “They’re mine. I shot him on my twenty-first birthday,” Alberta, Canada native, Hall says. “I do have a weird sense of style - eclectic. All of this art is local,” Hall says of the decor in her restaurant, “that’s from an artist in Seaside, that’s

from Charlie Wooldridge, and my mom did that,” pointing out the pieces and artists. Flores says that “everything that means something to Mom is in the restaurant, even pictures of my grandparents, so everyone can enjoy it.” Joining Hall, in the kitchen, is her son Benjamin Larson as executive chef. Larson, whom recently graduated from the Oregon Culinary Institute says, “I became a chef because I have grown up in restaurants since I was very little. When we were in Salt Lake City, I hung out in the back with the Chef. I found him intriguing. Now I enjoy cooking. I love it.” In Salt Lake City, Hall was the owner of the Cabana Night Club. According to Flores, it was a private night club with formal attire and dueling baby grand pianos. “I couldn’t go into the club, because I was a kid,” Flores says, “but I ended up helping in the kitchen and did some of the gross jobs like dishes and deveining shrimp. I loved it.”

Hall says that even though much has changed since she opened her first restaurant in the county, she has carried along traditions like hand-cut french fries, a secret fry sauce and homemade bread bowls for her chowder since the beginning, along with a menu similar to Kendra’s Kitchen, with new additions. Similar to life at Kendra’s Kitchen, Hall also lives at the River Inn, “it makes the commute kinda easy. But sometimes you realize that you haven’t left in a week. I can get anything I want delivered,” she says. “I feel like it’s more like a home - with a really big dining room that people come to eat at,” Flores says, “This place is so amazing. I can see myself owning it one day and keeping it in the family.” Looking out of the restaurant windows to the view of green pasture land, tall trees and the Nehalem River, Hall says, “it’s kind of magical here, you know.” Kendra’s River Inn - Food and Lodging is located at 34910 OR-53 in Nehalem and is open Monday through Saturday from 11:30 a.m. to 9 p.m., on Sunday from 1 to 6 p.m. for more information or to book a room, call (503) 368-7488.

Commentary/Obits/News

Scammers everywhere you look! The news sources of all kinds are loaded with stories about various scams that go on day after day. It used to be that you could find a place out in the country and get away from all that sordid action, but we all know with the internet and all the free long distance calling that is available there is no place to hide. lots of things are happening and we are not aware because we haven’t exposed ourselves to those who would seek our soft side and give us the business. One of our daughters and her husband made the decision to sell a hot tub that came with the house they just bought. A simple ad on Craig’s list looked to be the best place to advertise. It took but one day before the first offer came and they did some dickering before agreeing on a price. There were what appeared to be just two potential buyers and there were some

exchanges of bids until one of them offered more than the price they had advertised. Fortunately they had agreed on a price with a local person and then they received a large envelop that contained a cashier’s check for more than what the sale price had ever been. Sensing something was very wrong they then discovered that the scam was pretty common and they had been dealing with folks from all over the world. A phony cashiers check sent from Tennessee written on a bank in Texas mailed from some place in a US Mail envelop. The trick was to get them to cash the bogus check and then mail them the overage amount. All this sounds pretty stupid but I guess they make it work or they would quit trying. That old adage “If it sounds too good to be true, it probably isn’t”

Over the years I have had many opportunities to share in the pride that comes from working with others to make good things happen. Only those of us with a lot of gray hair can remember the helplessness that everyone felt when faced with world financial depressions and healthcare problems that looked like the end of the world. With hard work and new technology some of those problems have been solved. It is just too bad we still have those among us who continue to have no respect for what belongs to someone else. There are some people that I have even less respect for and they would be those who just tear apart and ruin things and break the hearts of the owners.

something taken from them or perhaps they did steal something and got away with it. I do remember one time when we had bought a new washer and dryer set and thought giving the old ones to someone on Craig’s list would be a good way to get rid of them. I think I did finally put a small price on them and only had the stipulation that they had to take both machines. It was later that day that I received a phone call from the person who bought them. They just wanted to thank us and were so surprised and pleased to find out that both machines were actually in good working order. One little bit that I remember from many years ago was when a friend had to buy a new water heater. He was a bit perplexed on how to haul and get rid of the old tank. He finally placed the old tank in the new box and put it out on the curb

Lately I have been receiving calls from a robot on my cell phone telling me how lucky I was and all the wonderful things I had just won. Pretty easy to hang up except when you are driving and find yourself pulling off the road to answer the phone. I guess it doesn’t do any good to yell at them, except you get it off your chest! All this makes we wonder how people with a warped sense of what is right or wrong got that way. Surely they were not among the fellows I met in my Boy Scout days. Stealing or telling lies were not allowed in the organization and not at home. Maybe they never had

New York comes to Cannon Beach The Cannon Beach History Center & Museum brings a little New York jazz to the west coast on Friday, April 29 at 7 p.m. The group voted “Best New Jazz Group” in New York City Hot House Magazine makes just one stop in Oregon on their national tour – in Cannon Beach! The Museum offers a unique opportunity to listen to The Daniel Bennett Group that has broken jazz barriers to create a sound that is called “synergistic” by NPR, “transcendent” by New York Times, and “hypnotic” by Time Out New York. The Daniel Bennett Group performs modern Jazz, fused with elements of American Folk and experimental classical music. Yahoo Voices calls Bennett’s music, “refreshingly capricious and trippy.” The group is comprised of Bennett and renowned guitarist Nat Janoff, as well as master percussionist Matthew Feick. The Village Voice raves, “saxophonist Daniel Bennett makes hay with an airy approach that’s buoyant enough to conjure notions of East African guitar riffs and Steve Reich’s pastoral repetition.” The Boston Globe describes Bennett’s music as “a mix of jazz, folk, and minimalism.”

Chiropractic care now available in Manzanita from Dr. Heidi Olejnik at Oregon Coast Chiropractic Seeking specialized health care options, such as hands-on chiropractic manipulation, often had North Tillamook County residents trekking 25 miles north or south, or even 100 miles to the valley for a provider. Not any more … Dr. Heidi Olejnik is sharing office space in Manzanita at 60 Laneda Ave., Suite 201, and is available for appointments on Sundays and Monday, twice per month. With online scheduling at www.oregoncoastchiropractic.com, it’s easy and convenient to set up an appointment. Dr. Heidi Olejnik has been treating patients at Portland Chiropractic Clinic since 2012, and in late 2015 Dr. Samantha Mathers presented her with the opportunity to bring her practice part-time to the North Oregon Coast. “I’ve loved the Oregon Coast since childhood and I’m so

excited to have the opportunity to provide care to local residents and visitors, and to be a part of this wonderful community,” commented Dr. Olejnik. “My main focus is to work with my patients to first alleviate pain and improve function in a natural, individualized and empowering way.” Dr. Heidi (as she’s known to her patients) specializes in treating the whole family, all ages, with a biomechanical approach that is matched to each person’s needs. “We work together to remove the barriers, get them feeling better, and empower patients so they can have the tools to maintain their own health,” explained Dr. Heidi. She continued, “I strive to strike a balance with patients to find what works best for them. Doing adjustments gives us a great window of opportunity to work toward optimal health, especially

when combined with exercises, stretches, and other tips to get the maximum benefit.” Dr. Heidi provides diversified chiropractic manipulation and a variety of soft tissue therapies. She has specialized training in the care of motor vehicle accident victims, including craniosacral therapy and whiplash and brain traumatology. Her chiropractic practice is about more than just the spine, she has a passion for treating extremities – shoulders, ankles, hips, and jaw issues. Dr. Heidi takes time to listen, educate and develop long-term, caring relationships with her patients. According to Maria M., “Dr. Heidi Olejnik is a oneof-a-kind chiropractor. Her compassion speaks volumes, her understanding of the body and the way joints and muscles move is exceptional, her personality is warm and she is an amazing

listener. I came to Dr. Heidi because I was experiencing a lot of discomfort in my shoulder – she knew just what to do and I left feeling significantly improved. After my second treatment, the problem resolved completely. I recommend Dr. Heidi to anyone looking for an amazing chiropractor who understands that each patient is different and will look at them with fresh eyes every time.” Dr. Heidi is available to see patients every other Sunday and Monday in Manzanita. Visit www. oregoncoastchiropratic.com for more information and scheduling, or call 971-7042408. Dr. Heidi provides high quality care, tailored to each patient’s unique needs, and gives patients the support to maintain their own optimal health.

Exploring Oregon’s ocean at ‘Listening to the Land’

Things happen in the near-shore ocean off Oregon that don’t happen everywhere else in the Eastern North Pacific, along the path of the California Current. Life abounds—as do challenges, some of them perennial and some of them specific to this moment in Earth’s history. Join marine ecologist Kirsten GrorudColvert, PhD, for a wide-ranging talk about the sea beside us in a presentation titled “Into the Deep: Exploring Oregon’s Ocean” at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, May 18, at Seaside Public Library. It is the final program in the 2016 Listening to the Land speaker series, which this year has focused on the theme of water. Admission is free; refreshments are served. Grorud-Colvert will begin by talking about some of the dynamism of our coast and certain features unique to our ocean. She’ll give us a look at our underwater reefs as she discusses upwelling and its role in the productivity of our ocean. She will address challenges such as sea star wasting syndrome and ocean hypoxia, or “dead zones.” And she’ll explore steps

Oregon is taking—with marine reserves in particular—to conserve its ocean. Kirsten Grorud-Colvert is on the faculty of Oregon State University, where she has studied marine systems and ocean organisms from the Florida Keys to the near-shore ocean off Oregon. She uses data from many different marine species and habitats to look at what happens when you protect an area in the ocean and what we can learn from these areas in order to design even better protection. She also directs the Science of Marine Reserves Project, a team of marine ecologists, graphic designers, communication specialists and marine reserve scientists around the globe developing effective ways to share scientific data about marine reserves with the general public. Listening to the Land is an annual winter speaker series presented monthly by North Coast Land Conservancy and the Necanicum Watershed Council in partnership with the Seaside Public Library.

TCF announces 2016 entertainment line-up The 2016 Tillamook County Fair is just around the corner and the Fair Board and staff are excited that we were able to schedule some amazing performers for this year’s fair. We are happy to have the up and coming country band A Thousand Horses along with American pop and country music duo The Bellamy Brothers and the soft rock group, Little River Band to complete our fair line-up. The fair will begin Wednesday, August 10th with American country music band A Thousand Horses on stage that evening. Sponsored by TLC A Division of Fibre Federal Credit Union and Les Schwab Tires of Tillamook. A Thousand Horses is blending low-country blues, old school soul, rock and high gospel harmony to make a special and distinct sound with hits like “Smoke” and “(This Ain’t No) Drunk Dial”. All of their songs on the band’s 13 track debut album Southernality are filled with lyrics that really relate to everyone because the songs were written by members, sometimes alone, sometimes with friends. A Thousand Horses are able to bring out their own experi-

ences through music. Sheldon Oil Company and The Tillamook County Creamery Association are sponsoring the American pop and country music duo, The Bellamy Brothers, Thursday night August 11th. The Bellamy Brothers have been captivating the world for over 30 years with numerous No. 1 hits on both Country and Pop charts. Howard and David Bellamy have been able to stay connected with their millions of listeners over the years even though the music industry has been becoming more about the style over substance. They have been bringing us honest, heartfelt songs like “If I Said You Had A Beautiful Body (Would You Hold It Against Me),” “Do You Love As Good As You Look,” “When I’m Away From You,” and “Redneck Girl.” The Brothers’ hit song from the ‘70s “Let Your Love Flow” is still very popular in today’s music. The Friday night, August 12th concert is sponsored by the Tillamook County Merchant’s Day Businesses and will be the soft rock group, Little River Band. Within eight months of becoming a band, Little River Band had

already scored two top Ten albums and three Australian Top 20 singles. Their self-titled debut album was released in the USA in 1976, which started their 13 US tours in eight months. LRB is on their 40th Anniversary Tour bringing us a mix of new songs as well as classics such as “Reminiscing,” “Cool Change” and “Lady.” The fair entertainment will wrap up Saturday night, August 13th with the traditional and very popular Demolition Derby sponsored by Carson Oil Company, The Headlight Herald and Clatsop Distributing Company. The fair is also looking forward to 4 days of Pig-NFord racing with the World Championships Saturday evening and Horse Racing

everyday starting at 1:00 pm. Returning for their 37th year the innovative and longstanding Huckleberry Health Fair will be held in the skating rink on Wednesday and Thursday. Sponsored by Tillamook Regional Medical Center. The Dairy Done Right Lounge sponsored by The Tillamook County Creamery Association will be in the skating rink on Friday and Saturday. This will be the lounge’s second year so be sure to check it out between Noon to 4:00 pm. Fair Acres will be ready to greet the younger fair goers with educational exhibits and hands on experiences as well as entertainment throughout the day. Sponsored by Werner Gourmet Meats. On the courtyard stage

we have brought back the ever popular Brad’s World Reptiles and the mesmerizing hypnotist show with Tammy Barton. We have a few new entertainers this year, Godfrey the Magician who will roam around as well as perform stage shows and “Tangled Threads”, a two person strolling marionette show sure to captivate your attention. To round off new experiences, we have invited the local Wave Steppers to showcase their talents and Year of Wellness (YOW) organizers will entice fair goers to a Hula Hoop challenge. Musical Entertainment doesn’t just happen on the main stage, included this year in the courtyard performances is Cascade Rye, an Austin Texas based American Roots

rock duo and the Beth Willis Band duo who is an high energy acoustic act that plays a wide variety of music. All of the entertainment at the 2016 Tillamook County Fair would not be possible without all of the businesses that sponsor these events. The fair would like to ask that local residents support the fair sponsors and take note throughout this year’s premium book (distributed in early June) and during the fair of those businesses that make the fair happen. We absolutely cannot have a blue ribbon fair without our sponsors and participants. The fair board is happy to celebrate The “Century of Silver, Celebrating 125 Years” Fair with all of you.

Eighth-inning single decides season’s longest game After winning the first game of a doubleheader Friday (14-9), Neah-Kah-Nie was ready to make the trip to Cloverdale pay off with a sweep. But Neah-Kah-Nie coach Rob Herder and Nestucca coach Ken Richwine had to wait a little while to find out the winner of the second game. The game was stopped

after seven innings with the score tied at 4-4 Friday evening. On Monday, the two teams returned to finish the game at Nestucca High School. With Neah-Kah-Nie at bat, the Pirates started the inning off with a hard single by Tye Fitzgerald. After stealing second, Fitzgerald moved to third

and kept going until he scored on Bryce Bridge’s single to right field. With two runners still on base, a walk loaded the bases, but Wyatt Link was able to get out of the inning with a strikeout and a dramatic diving grab by firstbaseman Chase Cook for the third out. In the bottom of the inning, Pirate ace Bridge got

off to a rocky start with two straight balls. Then it was nothing but strikes except for an 0-2 infield hit by Noah Chatelain. He was left on base as Bridge struck out the next

two batters. The victory gave NeahKah-Nie its 10th league win of the season (10-5) while Nestucca fell to 4-9 in the Northwest League. After hosting Gaston

Tuesday, the Pirates close out the regular league season Friday at Gaston. Nestucca hosts Knappa Friday.

Pirate baseball visits Arizona Before spring break, NeahKah-Nie’s baseball team had never been to Arizona. Head Coach Rob Herder changed that when he took 15 members of his varsity team to play in the Coach Bob Invitational in the Phoenix area that hosted 113 different high schools from New York to Alaska. During the Invitational, the Pirates, the sole 2A team in the entire competition, went 0-4 against teams that dwarfed their own high school student population of less than 200. The student populations of the teams they played against ranged from 715 to 1780. But for Coach Herder, the tournament was not about the final score. “It wasn’t about winning or losing, but the experience we could gain and bring back to our school,” Herder said, “our biggest takeaway has been perspective. We’ve learned the difference between losing and being beat.” Portions of the annual fund-

raiser for the baseball program went towards the cost of the trip, “our community really got behind it,” Herder said, “They knew the gravity of what an event like that would. It felt like a village effort.” “These kids have a great mentor and coach in Herder,” said Paul Erlebach, superintendent of the Neah-KahNie School District, “he’s a dynamic and charismatic coach that The team took a hike in the mountains that surround Phoenix. took these kids away from what they know, against smaller schools and wants Sean Harth and first baseman Sam dropped them 1,000 to challenge the boys further.

Eat your vegetables…in carrot cake

The Golightly Gourmet Dana Zia

C

arrot cake is not considered an elegant dessert necessarily, in truth it is rather lumpy and a bit frumpy of a cake with raisins, nuts and pineapple poking out and refusing to behave for any occasion. It can dress up, but loses all sense of dignity when you cut it. Kinda like your great aunt Harriet that drinks too much and leaves a trail of crumbs all through the house, but she is so sweet! This cake was all the rage in the States in the 1970’s when it first hit the scene right along with the hippies but it has been around much longer than that. Believe it or not, using carrots in cakes dates back to medieval times when carrots were the only way to sweeten the cake, particularly in the winter and spring before honey was available. Back then, the cake, which was a vaguely cakelike affair, steamed and without flour or oil, was considered a “pudding”. There was no such thing as medieval cream cheese frosting, that came around

much later, but it seems this pudding was a big hit back then. It was filled with dried fruit, nuts and spices. It first appeared in a German cookbook as a true cake in 1847 made with almond flour and lots of eggs and carrots. Carrot cake still did not get its big break until World War II when the sugar rationing hit bakers real hard. There was a glut of canned carrots on the market in the US during this time and an enterprising businessman hired some bakers to find uses for the bonanza and the solution was the carrot cake that we all know and love today. (Sans the cream cheese frosting) He then marketed it to a large distributor of gourmet foods and it became available in cafeterias and diners. But it wasn’t until the 70’s that carrot cake had a true renaissance. That is when it appeared all dolled up in cream cheese frosting and full of lovely things like pineapple, coconut and pecans. Even though it was a fad dessert at the time, it has endured and has a sweet spot in most everyone’s heart and mouth. So much so, that February 3rd was declared national carrot cake day. (I kid you not! Whoever declared that, I love them!) You are a lucky, lucky person today as I am sharing with you the best carrot cake ever! It comes from one of my very favorite cookbooks, “The Fiddlehead cookbook” which was a celebrated restaurant in Juneau Alaska. Every single person that has tried this cake has asked for the recipe. Now you don’t have to. I have developed a gluten free carrot cake made with almond flour that is on my website at cavewomancafe.com. Have a wonderful spring and carrot cake.

Fiddlehead’s 18 Carat Cake

The unsweetened coconut is available at Mother Natures. Remember to save your pineapple juice from draining the canned pineapple! 2.5 cups of unbleached organic flour 1.5 cups of white sugar 2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon 1 teaspoon of ground nutmeg 1 teaspoon of ground ginger OR 1 tablespoon of grated fresh ginger 1.5 teaspoons of baking soda .5 teaspoon of baking powder 1 cup of light tasting olive oil 4 eggs 1/4 cup of the pineapple juice from the pineapple 1 tablespoon of pure vanilla extract 2 cups of grated carrot (about 3 medium) 1 cup of chopped nuts 1 cup of raisins 1 cup of finely flaked desiccated (unsweetened) coconut 3/4 cup of canned crushed pineapple drained (save that juice!) Generously coat two 9” inch round cake pans, or whatever cake pan you are into, with butter and dust with flour. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and set the racks to the middle of the oven. Then bunny hop around the

kitchen, once or twice. (optional) Grate your carrot up and drain the pineapple juice out of the pineapple into a clean bowl then set aside for later. Whisk together in a large mixing bowl all the dry ingredients, flour, sugar, spices and leavenings, till the spices are mixed in well. In a mixing bowl, (I use a stand mixer) blend the oil, eggs and vanilla till they get creamy, about 3 minutes. Add the pineapple juice and blend some more. With the mixer on a lowish speed, ya know not to slow to bog the mixer but not so fast the flour will give you a facial, add the dry ingredients to the wet till just mixed. (Don’t over mix it or you will get a toughie of a cake!) Fold in the carrots, nuts, raisins, coconut and pineapple with a rubber spatula till distributed evenly. Pour the batter into your prepared cake pans and tuck in the over to bake for 30-35 minutes or until the fragrance begins to fill the house. Check for doneness by touching the center and if it is set. (You can also use the old fashion way of inserting a tooth pick in the center and if it comes back clean) Let the cakes cool for a 10 minutes, then

turn out onto a cooling rack to let finish cooling completely. Frost with cream cheese frosting and bunny hop.

nilla extract 2 tablespoons of pure maple syrup 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon

Maple Cream Cheese frosting; I don’t like a super sweet frosting, but if you do, add more powdered sugar till you get the flavor you enjoy. You will need to half this recipe if you are frosting something less than a two layer cake.

Cream together the cream cheese with the butter with a mixer until smooth smooth smooth. With the mixer on low, add 1 cup of the powdered sugar until mixed in, then add the vanilla, maple syrup and cinnamon and mix some more. Taste, if it needs more sugar, add until it is the perfect flavor for you. (I like it a little less sweet) Frost your cakes, decorate with nuts, coconut, raisins and edible flowers. Bunny hop some more.

Two 8 ounce packages of cream cheese 5 tablespoons of melted butter 1-2 cups of powdered sugar 1 teaspoon of pure va-

Join North Coast Land Conservancy and ‘Bust Broom’ in May North Coast North Coast Land Conservancy is seeking volunteers to clear Scotch broom from its Reed Ranch Habitat Reserve in Warrenton on Wednesday, May 18, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Each May, NCLC works to remove invasive Scotch broom from its properties and encourages its neighbors on the Oregon Coast to do the same. This year the conservancy’s focus is on the coastal prairie and Neacoxie Wildlife Corridor. On May 18, NCLC will be targeting the remaining Scotch

broom missed by the forestry mulcher that removed large swaths of broom last winter from the steeper dune slopes at 117-acre Reed Ranch, west of Cullaby Lake. Anyone interested in volunteering is asked to contact NCLC Stewardship Director Melissa Reich at 503-738-9126 or melissar@nclctrust.org for more details or directions. Volunteers should wear sturdy boots and gloves and bring drinking water and lunch. Property owners are encouraged to remove Scotch

broom and other invasive plants from their own properties during May—“BroomBuster Month” on the Oregon Coast. Widely planted and admired in the early 20th century for its bright yellow blossoms, Scotch broom outcompetes native plants and is turning open coastal prairies into a monoculture of dense, weedy shrubs, destroying the habitat that many coastal animals need to survive. For details or tips on how and when to remove Scotch broom from your property, Busting broom on Onion Peak in May 2015 (credit North Coast Land Conservancy) visit NCLCtrust.org.
