Fact or fiction? Sheriff responds to questions about jail operations

Keeping an eye out

BY SHARI PHIEL The Chronicle

This is the first of a two-part story on Columbia County Sheriff Jeff Dickerson answers to questions about jail operations and the need for funding from a proposed levy on this November’s ballot. Look for the second part in next week’s issue of The Chronicle on Oct. 9. On Nov. 5, voters will be asked to vote on ballot measure 5-234, a four-year local option levy that would add 57 cents per $1,000 of assessed value to Sheriff Dickerson property tax rolls. Funding from the levy would go to support operational costs for the jail, raising an estimated $2.28 million in year one, $2.36 million in year two, $2.43 million in year three and $2.5 million in the final year, for a total of $9.57 million. Construction of the jail, which was built for a total cost of around $29 million, was completed in 2001 and was funded by a 1998 levy that added 38 cents per $1,000 of assessed property value. But finding enough money to cover the ongoing operational costs has proved to be difficult. In a July 10, 2001, article in The Chronicle, then-Sheriff Jeff Derby outlined a plan to charge neighboring Tillamook, Clatsop and possibly other counties to help pay for those operational costs. But Derby admitted that would only provide a short-term answer. “We realize this isn’t going to last forever. When the jail bond got passed, we told the public that at some point we ­­­­ See JAILS, Page A4

Community gardeners help feed hungry residents

BY DON PATTERSON The Chronicle

“We had a good year,” said Scott Bauska during a small celebration on Sept. 25 at the community garden in St. Helens. The garden has so far

produced 1,529 pounds of fresh produce, most of which was donated to the Columbia Pacific Food Bank and the Community Meals program in St. Helens. In all, volunteers made 38 trips to the food bank loaded with beets, beans

squash, tomatoes, kale and pumpkins, all fresh from the garden. Bauska heads up a group of six volunteers who put in six to eight hours a week working the garden. Most are members of Master Gardeners, an educational program sponsored by the

Oregon State University Extension Service. The garden sits on a fenced plot behind the St. Helens Senior Center and next to a small neighborhood park on S. 15th Street. The space been used as a community garden for years, according to Bauska.

At first, organizers tried to attract neighbors who wanted to rent space to grow vegetables for their own consumption. That didn’t work, he said. Then, two years ago, they turned it into a re-

Artistic gateway opens community garden in St. Helens BY DON PATTERSON The Chronicle

“Like a giant man coming out of the ground.” That’s how one child described the gateway to the community garden in St. Helens. The artistic gateway is the focal point of a new fence surrounding the garden and the inspiration of local artist Teresa Knight. Knight’s daughter, Stacie Knight, saw a need for the garden to have a fence when she visited in the summer of 2012, so she wrote a grant to secure the funds necessary to build it. However, the grant Knight received required the fence be created from art rather than chain links. “That’s where I came in,” said Teresa Knight, who is widely acclaimed for her artistic creations in the local community. She

designed a gateway built from a natural material called cob. Cob is a mixture of clay, sand and straw and it’s use as a building material dates to the earliest

civilizations. The design, Knight said, was a collaborative effort. Knight started the project in June of 2012, expecting to finish up by September. But the project

fell behind schedule and languished during the rainy winter months. In May, Knight started working on the sculpture again. “The design evolved,” Knight said. When she needed a reel for the fishing pole, a visit to the local lumberyard produced a discarded spool that fit the bill. The work received a coat of protective concrete and mosaic tiles as finishing touches. The design calls for decorative panels, 58 in all, to surround the garden. The framework is in place and recently, the first panel, created and supplied by Riverside Industries, was hung in position. For anyone wanting to donate a panel, applications are available at the South Columbia County Chamber of Commerce office. The creation is a community effort, but designs require approval, so check with the chamber before you start mixing paint.

Is Columbia County ready for Obamacare? Witt to seek sixth term BY SHARI PHIEL The Chronicle

While the federal government shutdown has now become a reality, enrollment for the Affordable Care Act – better known as Obamacare – at the heart of the dispute between the House and Senate officially continued its roll out on Oct. 1. Coverage under the healthcare reform begins Jan. 1, 2014. The split between the two legislative bodies has left many, including some of its own members, deeply frustrated and angered by the partisan politics. “I am deeply disappointed. It is a reckless path that will hurt our economy and cast a shadow of instability and uncertainty over the country,” said Rep. Suzanne Bonamici (D– Oregon), noting the House has voted to repeal or defund the ACA more than 40 times. “This obsession with defunding the ACA has taken time that should have been spent on important legislative priorities like immigration reform and job creation.” Despite the Tuesday start date, residents in Co-

lumbia County looking to sign up for the new health care program will have a hard time doing so. Cover Oregon, the state’s designated health care exchange, has delayed online enrollment after the technology behind the public corporation’s website wasn’t ready. The technology issues have an immediate impact on individuals and business owners looking to sign up now. “Customers will be able to search for a certified insurance agent or community partner in their area or by a specific language. They will also be able browse and compare plans, and sort them by different criteria as well as estimate how much savings they might receive and sign up to receive email updates,” said Cover Oregon representative Michael Cox of what customers could expect in early days. Who should enroll? “Everybody should be looking at their coverage beginning Oct. 1 if they’re uninsured or individually insured on their own, outside of their employer. All individuals that have coverage on their own,

all of their coverage will cease to exist at the end of December,” said Beth Acevedo of Hagan Hamilton Insurance. Those without health insurance, or those with an employer offering health insurance that costs more that 9.5 percent of your income and who make between $15,000 and $41,000 a year, based on number of dependents, will be eligible for a tax credit. Customers will be able to choose between four benefit levels: bronze, silver, gold, and platinum. If you’re thinking of just skipping enrollment entirely, you may want to reconsider. Individuals who choose not to have health insurance coverage will face a tax penalty under the law. There are exemptions based on income level, religion, or if coverage costs more than eight percent of your income. In preparation of the healthcare rollout, Hagan Hamilton added 21 agents across four locations to handle the extra workload. Most employers, depending on the number of employees and cover­­­­ See ACA, Page A6

Bonamici calls for end to governing by crisis

Congresswoman Suzanne Bonamici (D-Oregon) released a statement Monday about the decision made by House leadership to amend the SenateSuzanne Bonamici passed continuing resolution and delay full implementation of the Affordable Care Act. “With just over 48 hours remaining before the budget expires, I am disappointed that the House leadership is once again bringing up legislation to delay the Affordable Care Act rather than working on a bipartisan solution to keep our government open that can pass both the House and Senate. Governing by crisis must end,” said Bonamici. “I recently held four town hall meetings where constituents from across the district and political spectrum asked that Congress work together to prevent a government shutdown and return our focus to growing jobs and strengthening the economy.” Bonamici went on to add that the Senate wasn’t likely approve the funding bill nor was the president likely to sign. “We must not let an intransigent minority stop the efforts of a bipartisan majority to keep the government open and serving its citizens.”

source for the food bank, supplying box after box of fresh produce for consumption by the community’s needy. Paths of wood chip mulch separate neat rows of healthy-looking crops. The chips will be scraped up next spring and left to decay into mulch. Then a new layer of fresh chips starts the cycle over again. The garden depends on mulch and manure to enhance the native soil, said Bauska. Gardeners still harvest plenty of St. Helens’ black basalt from the rich loam. “When we work, we take two buckets,” said Bauska, “One for weeds and one for rocks.” Shirley Harrison, a volunteer and master gardener, also helps out serving free meals at Grace Baptist Church. Once a month she fixes lunch for participants in the food bank’s brown bag food program. Harrison said she has seen the number of lunches she serves climb from 40 just a year ago to 100 now. Bauska said now that the season is winding down, the focus will turn to winter vegetables, turnips, beets, carrots and kale. Rows of beans still bear a handful of fruit and rich red pumpkins rest on the dark, moist soil. A few vine-ripening tomatoes still hang from exhausted plants. The garden depends on donation for businesses and individuals for its needs. The PUD donated the wood chips this year and the garden just received a contribution of seed for next year from Columbia Electric Feed and Seed. The garden sports a new fence, a necessity in a neighborhood heavily populated with deer. The fence resulted from a grant written by Columbia City resident, Stacie Knight. Next year, Bauska hopes to trim the overgrown ornamental plum tree and turn an abandoned bathtub on the plot into a children’s herb garden. If you’d like to donate time or materials to the community garden, contact the Columbia Pacific Food Bank at 503-397-9708 or Community Meals at 503-397-0090.

It is library staff’s intention to host regular gaming nights using two gaming systems, a large screen television and the big projector screen in the auditorium. Games that are educational, interactive, cooperative, or creative will be favored over those that are violent or anti-social in nature. However, the library is seeking teen input on which games should be bought. There will be room for a little bit of everything. The first event, which will be held on Wednesday, Oct. 16, starting at 4:30 p.m., will allow teens, parents, and the

Sen. Johnson receives Hatfield award State Sen. Betsy Johnson (D-Scappoose) was recently presented with the League of Oregon Cities’ prestigious Mark O. Hatfield Statesmanship award during the AOC’s 88th annual conference in Portland. In 2007, when the city of Vernonia suffered major flooding, Senator Johnson was responsible for raising millions of dollars to replace destroyed school buildings, senior center and other facilities. A longtime champion and advocate for the Oregon Solution program, Johnson has used her voice and votes to champion the need for vital public services. She has helped lead the effort to secure the initial funding from the governor’s office to address repeated flooding in Tillamook County. She also worked with the city of Astoria and the

Northwest Area Commission on Transportation to secure a $3.8 million grant to rebuild the failing 17th Street Pier, next to the Columbia Betsy Johnson Maritime Museum and home to the Coast Guard ships. Johnson’s current service on boards and commission throughout the state includes: the Board of Visitors for the Northwestern School of Law at Lewis & Clark College; the Columbia River Maritime Museum; the Institute for Metropolitan Studies at Portland State University; and as president of the Samuel S. Johnson

Foundation. The Hatfield Award is presented to a deserving “statesman” who has provided lasting benefits to the quality of life for Oregon citizens. Applicants must be held in high esteem by the public due to their unselfish devotion to the call of public service. This year, the Hatfield award was presented for just the sixth time since its creation in 1996. Previous winners include: Congressman Greg Walden (2011); Ray Naff, Intergovernmental Relations Director for former Governor Ted Kulongoski (2010); former Oregon Senator Brady Adams (2007); former Oregon Senator Cliff Trow (2001), former Oregon Governor Neil Goldschmidt (1997) and former Oregon and U.S. Senator Mark Hatfield (1996), the longest-serving senator from Oregon.

would need to seek an operating levy [for additional jail personnel],” said Derby. Over the past few years, there have been numerous comments and questions about spending at the jail posed through our letters to the editor, our website, social media sites and in person. We asked Columbia County Sheriff Jeff Dickerson to respond to some of these questions and comments: #1 - When the initial bond to build the jail was put on the ballot, weren’t voters told all of the operational costs would be paid for by bed rentals to the marshal’s service, ICE or other inmates? Dickerson: In talking with Commissioner Hyde (who is the only remaining member from the board that put the jail bond on the ballot in 1998) he recalled that it was the understanding that they would rely on outside help to fund the jail operations until the costs could be reasonably determined, and that they would eventually come back and ask for whatever amount that was needed in a supplemental operational levy. #2. We don’t need a big jail with beds rented out. We should close the big jail and go back to using the old jail. Dickerson: I would be willing to do this myself, if it saved enough money to keep us in business – but it doesn’t. The number of deputies it took to run the old jail in the two years before the new jail was built (1998 and 1999) was 1516 (plus management costs). Employee costs for that many people in this budget year are approximately $1.75 million dollars – which represents $600,000 more than the county is spending on the budget in the jail this year. And there would be no outside revenue to help offset costs as there are now. Then if you take into account the food, medical and other housing costs of the 4550 inmates who were housed in the jail back then (with serious overcrowding problems that held the threat to land the county in civil rights lawsuits), there is no help in going back. Plus, the renovation required to make the old jail comply with constitutional standards (as determined by the courts) would run in the millions, I have no doubt. #3: The sheriff’s office would have more money if

Through the community health needs assessment, everyone’s voice will help decide what is needed to make Columbia County communities the healthiest places to live, work and play. “We want to involve as many people in the community as we can,” said Nancy Knopf, CPCCO Community Advisory Council coordinator.

Columbia County wraps up road projects The Columbia County Road Department announced the completion of the Eddings Road Culvert replacement project. The project was located in Woodson area about 6.5 miles west of Clatskanie where Eddings Road crosses over Eilertson Creek. According to county officials, the culvert needed to be replaced after a storm event caused a large debri flow to blanket the whole area with rock and mud down Eilertson Creek, devastating multiple homes and leaving some residents with no access. The road department along with the Oregon Department of Transportation, completed a massive clean-up of the debris off U.S. Highway 30 and the county Roads within the area. A temporary structure was erected over Eilertson Creek to allow area residents access up

the canyon. The replacement of this temporary structure was completed Aug. 30 after road crews finished the final touches on the new 14-foot steel culvert. The new structure has an expanded size to allow for large rain events and also improves fish habitat by allowing spawning for many miles upstream. The project was completed under budget and on schedule as funding for much of the replacement was available through Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA) disaster relief funds. The project was designed by the Columbia County Road department with construction completed by the Rainier and Clatskanie Road Department district crews. For further information, contact Tristan Wood at the Columbia County Road Department, 503-366-3992.

Mayors support ballot measure to keep prisoners in jail Every city mayor in Columbia County has endorsed the countywide jail levy campaign, says Keep Prisoners in Jail, a grassroots groups supporting the levy. Measure 5-234 will be the only measure on the ballot during the special election this November. Columbia County’s Board of Commissioners referred the levy to the November ballot because lack of funds threaten to close the county jail altogether. Without passage of this levy, the jail is predicted to shut down completely in the near future. More than 500 criminals have been released this year because of funding restraints. Most local offenders that go to the jail are likely to only spend 1 or 2 nights there because of the cost. “The punishment should fit the crime. Cite and release should not be tolerable,” said Mayor Cheryl Young of Columbia City when explaining why she was supportive of the levy. The seven mayors supdeputies at the jail weren’t overpaid. Dickerson: Deputies are not overpaid. They get paid enough to keep them doing the thankless, difficult job that few are willing to do day-in and day-out, dealing with some of the most difficult and dangerous people. This is a profession, and you have to pay to get professional people. If we didn’t pay a reasonable salary, these professionals would go work some place that is willing to pay for their services. But even if it were possible to cut the deputies pay, we would have cut them almost by about 60 percent to be able to have enough money to run a small jail with just a few prisoners. How would we expect anyone to take such a pay cut and stick around? They have marketable skills and would leave as soon as they could. The jail would become a training ground for other agencies, if we could

porting the jail levy are Scappoose Mayor Scott Burge, St. Helens Mayor Randy Peterson, Vernonia Mayor Josette Mitchell, Prescott Mayor Lynette Oswald, Rainier Mayor Jerry Cole, Columbia City Mayor Cheryl Young, and Clatskanie Mayor Diane Pohl. The mayors join in support with business leaders including, Trent Dolyniuk, Blackbird Catering owner and CEO Jeff Kemp of Pacific Stainless. State Senator Betsy Johnson, State Representative Brad Witt, Sheriff Jeff Dickerson and the Columbia County Commissioners have also endorsed the campaign. The measure calls for a 58-cent increase per thousand dollar assessed property value. It would raise the money needed for the deficit, funding the 100 worst local offenders to be maintained at the only jail in the county. The levy would last four years then would have to be re-approved by the voters. Election Day is Tuesday, Nov. 5. even get anyone willing to do this job for less than half of what other agencies pay. #4: The sheriff’s office would have more money if they stopped spending money on new boats. The sheriff’s office should just stop patrolling the river. Dickerson: The state marine board carried virtually the entire cost of the new boats. The Sheriff’s Office has many responsibilities, and safety on one of the largest bodies of water in our nation is one of them. We patrol these waters (and many are thankful we are out there) because it is our duty. If we quit patrolling the waters, we would save about $50,000, which is the percentage of the cost we bear for marine hours. It isn’t worth it to me to give that up for an amount that would not significantly change our ability to perform the other services these deputies provide.

Letters Stuff the Bus sends thanks Thank you to all of the businesses and volunteers who helped to make the 8th annual “Stuff the Bus” event a success. Your generosity with time and donated supplies has made a difference in the lives of many families in Columbia County. We had several new businesses and volunteers participate this year. Your participation made a big difference. One of our St. Helens volunteers reported that some of the participating businesses requested pick up for two to four boxes of school supplies. That is just fantastic! The donated school supplies help students return to school ready to learn not worried about the lack of school supplies. The school supplies collected stay in the community where they are

collected and are disbursed differently in each school district. The disbursement in St. Helens was held the last Wednesday of August. It was reported that 276 students received supplies. A big thank you to Rosie Amos who has been the lead volunteer in disbursing school supplies for many years at Grace Baptist Church in St. Helens. She announced her retirement for this year. She will be greatly missed. We haven’t heard from the other school districts at this time. However, in the past we have been able to report helping 650 students throughout Columbia County. Although this event is not able to provide everything a student needs, it does help provide several of the re-

Want to be a volunteer or have a drop box at your business next year? Call 503556-3614 or email uwcc@ hotmail.com and we will put you on our list for next year. We begin planning and getting set up in July and collection usually runs the month of August. We can always use more volunteers to help with this. Or you can donate to the Stuff the Bus program to help purchase school supplies for this community event. Working together we can make a difference.

Gardening Matters

Six attractive plants to brighten winter days in western Oregon BY DENISE RUTTAN Oregon State Extension

Fall is a good time to plant shrubs and trees that will cheer up western Oregon’s often gloomy winter days. “Fall is often a better time of year to plant trees and shrubs because the soil is still warm and plantings can get their roots established,” said Barb Fick, a horticulturist with the Oregon State University Extension Service. “It’s also a forgiving time of year if you forget to water your plantings because of seasonal rainfall.” Here are six of Fick’s favorites for shrubs and trees that will balance winter and early spring landscapes: Dogwood shrubs: There are about 30-60 species of mostly deciduous dogwood trees and shrubs. “The stems of many species provide winter interest and range from orange to yellow to red depending on the species,” Fick said. “‘Midwinter Fire flowers in the summer but the yellow stems tipped with red twigs really glow in the winter. It’s really gorgeous; it just pops. The yellow fall color of the foliage is an added bonus.” Mahonia shrubs: Oregon grape, the state flower, is included in this genus. Known by its scientific name as Mahonia aquifolium, its clusters of golden yellow flowers bloom in March and April and are followed by black berries. It can thrive in

western and eastern Oregon. Known by the scientific name Mahonia x media, the varieties “Charity” and “Arthur Menzies” bear fragrant upright clusters of flowers. Hummingbirds are also attracted to these evergreen

shrubs. Camellia: This is a genus of broad-leafed evergreen flowering shrubs and small trees with about 100-250 species. Fick recommends Camellia sasanquas, a tea flower from China and

Japan coveted for its pink, white and red blooms. It flowers fall through winter and its glossy, green foliage makes it a great background year-round. With a height of about eight to 10 feet, it can be grown on a trellis. Prune

it after it flowers. “Yuletide” is a favorite for small yards as it is a dense, compact, upright plant. Daffodils: “Fall is a great time of year to plant bulbs,” Fick said. “If you have deer, they won’t touch daffodils.

They’re also bright and cheery in the early spring. They make great cut flowers in the house.” Fick recommends the large-cupped Trumpet variety and the small-cupped Narcissus. They bloom February to April. Himalayan honeysuckle or Himalayan Pheasantberry: A deciduous shrub that grows eight feet tall, this East Asian plant has a striking flower structure that stands out against the light foliage. The black-purple seeds ripen from October to November and the birds eat the berries from summer through frost. According to Fick, the “Golden Lanterns” variety is “a must have for the garden.” Its foliage comes in a distinctive limegreen shade year-round that makes a splendid accent in a yard dominated by dark evergreen leaves. Gingko biloba: Many botanists call this tree a literal living fossil. It has no close living relatives and may be the oldest living seed plant. Unique and tough, it is native to China and has survived the centuries from the time of dinosaurs, Fick said. Its distinctive autumn leaf color ranges from chartreuse to bright yellow to deep gold, depending on the tree, and it loses its leaves all at once. In eastern Oregon, gingko biloba should be planted in spring. For more information, there are several OSU Extension guides available at extension.oregonstate.edu.

Columbia County 4-H ready for ‘change’ Fred Meyer presented a check for $2,698.52 to the Columbia County 4-H Youth Development program thanks to the efforts of its customers and

employees. From Feb. 3 through May 25, Fred Meyer customers in Scappoose were able to donate their change to the local 4-H

City seeks input on street plan The City of St. Helens was recently awarded grant funds from the State of Oregon Department of Transportation to create a street corridor master plan for a portion of Columbia River Highway, Columbia Boulevard and St. Helens Street. As work begins on the project, the City of St. Helens is seeking input from business and property owners in the corridor master plan area. The city is holding a meeting at the South Columbia County Chamber of Commerce on Oct. 7, at 12:30 p.m. A brief presentation on corridor plans will take place. After the presentation, business and property owners will be asked to give feedback on what types of corridor improvements are most important to them. City staff and consultants will be available from 1:30–4 p.m. to meet with individual business and property owners on a drop-in basis. The city mailed meeting invitation letters to affected individuals the week of Sept. 23. While the chamber meeting is only intended for affected property and business owners, the city will offer the general public multiple opportunities to provide input as the plan takes shape. The plan will look at a variety of functional and aesthetic features, such

age offered, will be able to retain their existing policies until the renewal date. For small employers with 25 or fewer employees may qualify for tax incentives up to 35 percent under the ACA. However, small employers must have their new insurance plans effective by Jan. 1, 2014. “Most employers that are offering employee benefits now will continue to offer it through the direct market because there is no rating difference,” said Acevedo. That doesn’t mean the insurance coverage employers are offering won’t change. The plans being offered by healthcare providers such as Trillium, Pacific Source, Kaiser Permanente, Moda Health (formerly ODS) and many others will be changing too. Employers and employees should learn of those changes within the next 30–60 days. How to enroll Along with enrolling directly through the Cover Oregon website, individuals and employers can turn to a certified insurance agent, and there are several throughout the county. However, you may not want to rely on the website’s listing entirely. Agents from Insurance Services Northwest are currently listed under Hagan Hamilton’s (which recently acquired the St. Helens business) main office in McMinnville, leaving off

several local agents. Customers can also be referred to a certified insurance agent or community partner by calling 1-855-CoverOR (1-855268-3767) Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Along with the agents at Hagan Hamilton, local agents include: Jeff Benson, Scott Burge and Michael Ismert in Scappoose; Kristine Moore in St. Helens; Michelle Moore in Columbia City and Sheryl Teuscher in Rainier. The Affordable Care Act also expands the number of individuals that will be eligible for Medicaid “Currently, Oregon Health Plan is set at 100 percent of the federal poverty level to qualify. That’s going to 133 percent. So there is quite a bit more of the population that will qualify for Medicaid,” said Acevedo. Medicaid patients won’t immediately need to sign up but when they do they will need to contact a community partner. Unfortunately, there isn’t one in the county right now. Community partners are usually provider clinics, local governments, non-profit or community-based groups that do outreach and enrollment assistance on behalf of Cover Oregon. Community partners were able to apply for a grant from Cover Oregon to help offset the costs of new equipment, staff and training. So far, none have applied for a piece of the more than $2.5 million that Cover Oregon handed out.

Vernonia celebrates salmon spawning with festival MORE INFO

BY APRIL BAMBURG

Families looking for a way to spend a Saturday, Vernonia offers an event that one event organizer describes as “a little Norman Rockwell.” The 11th annual Salmon Festival offers a variety of activities for youths and adults. The event takes place at Hawkins Park, in downtown Vernonia on Oct. 5, from 10 a.m.–6 p.m. The whole event will be contained in Hawkins Park, site of the annual logging show in August. The stars of the day are the Chinook salmon, which are returning to spawn. The Upper Nehalem Watershed Council will again bring Claudia the Chinook for youths to explore, and attendees can build their own scarecrow and carve pumpkins, for a small fee. A silent auction will raise funds for next year’s event. All tools in the pumpkin carving station are kid-friendly. Kids will be able to catch their own trout at the event, with catch and release allowed. Adults will be on site to assist kids in baiting hooks and casting into the small pond, fashioned from the kid-

What: Vernonia Salmon Festival When: Oct. 5, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Where: Hawkins Park, Vernonia, Ore. Fees: $3 for pumpkin carving, scarecrow building, about $5 fee for kids’ fishing pond

die pool across from Hawkins Park. If families don’t want to take the fish home, they’ll be released into Vernonia Lake later in the day. The first festival was held in the fall of 2001, although it was not called the Vernonia Salmon Festival. The name came later, according to Vendor Chair Josette Mitchell. “We wanted to celebrate the fall harvest,” Mitchell said. “It’s been a collaborative effort between the Upper Nehalem Watershed Council and other organizations,” Mitchell said. With a salmon-bearing stream in town, it made sense, she said, to focus on the salmon‘s return to spawn.

Since the beginning of the festival, the Upper Nehalem Watershed Council has had a presence. They bring Claudia the Chinook to Vernonia from Washington, and Watershed Council representative Maggie Peyton said that it’s a big hit with the kids. “She’s 20-something feet long and hollow,” she said. “She’s a visual hit for sure.” “Hopefully there will be living, breathing fish in the river,” Peyton said. “This year’s looking good. We’re getting lots of rain and the fish are in the water.” For adults, there will be a variety of vendors, from local crafters to family farms to nonprofit agencies. The Tualatin Boy Scouts will operate a trebuchet, launching soccer balls. There will also be a heritage steam engine display featuring a wide variety of steam engines and other machines powered by steam.

TO RESIDENTIAL TENANTS: The property in which you are living is in foreclosure. A foreclosure sale is scheduled for December 13, 2013. The date of this sale may be postponed. Unless the lender who is foreclosing on this property is paid before the sale date, the foreclosure will go through and someone new will own this property. After the sale, the new owner is required to provide you with contact information and notice that the sale took place. The following information applies to you only if you are a bona fide tenant occupying and renting this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement. The information does not apply to you if you own this property or if you are not a bona fide residential tenant. If the foreclosure sale goes through, the new owner will have the right to require you to move out. Before the new owner can require you to move, the new owner must provide you with written notice that specifies the date by which you must move out. If you do not leave before the moveout date, the new owner can have the sheriff remove you from the property after a court hearing. You will receive notice of the court hearing. PROTECTION FROM EVICTION IF YOU ARE A BONA FIDE TENANT OCCUPYING AND RENTING THIS PROPERTY AS A RESIDENTIAL DWELLING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO CONTINUE LIVING IN THIS PROPERTY AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE FOR: • THE REMAINDER OF YOUR FIXED TERM LEASE, IF YOU HAVE A FIXED TERM LEAE; • AT LEAST 90 DAYS FROM THE DATE YOU ARE GIVEN A WRITTEN TERMINATION NOTICE. If the new owner wants to move in and use this property as a primary residence, the new owner can give you written notice and require you to move out after 90 days, even though you have a fixed term lease with more than 90 days left. You must be provided with at least 90 days’ written notice after the foreclosure sale before you can be required to move. A bona fide tenant is a residential tenant who is not the borrower (property owner) or a child, spouse or parent of the borrower, and whose rental agreement: • Is the result of an arm’slength transaction; • Requires the payment of rent that is not substantially less than fair market rent for the property, unless the rent is reduced or subsidized due to a federal, state or local subsidy; and • Was entered into prior to the date of the foreclosure sale. ABOUT YOUR TENANCY BETWEEN NOW AND THE FORECLOSURE SALE: RENT YOU SHOULD CONTINUE TO PAY RENT TO YOUR LANDLORD UNTIL THE PROPERTY IS SOLD OR UNTIL A COURT TELLS YOU

OTHERWISE. IF YOU DO NOT PAY RENT, YOU CAN BE EVICTED. BE SURE TO KEEP PROOF OF ANY PAYMENTS YOU MAKE. SECURITY DEPOSIT You may apply your security deposit and any rent you paid in advance against the current rent you owe your landlord as provided in ORS 90.367. To do this, you must notify your landlord in writing that you want to subtract the amount of your security deposit or prepaid rent from you rent payment. You may do this only for the rent you owe your current landlord. If you do this, you must do so before the foreclosure sale. The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale is not responsible to you for any deposit or prepaid rent you paid to your landlord. ABOUT YOUR TENANCY AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE The new owner that buys this property at the foreclosure sale may be willing to allow you to stay as a tenant instead of requiring you to move out after 90 days or at the end of your fixed term lease. After the sale, you should receive a written notice informing you that the sale took place and giving you the new owner’s name and contact information. You should contact the new owner if you would like to stay. If the new owner accepts rent from you, signs a new residential rental agreement with you or does not notify you in writing within 30 days after the date of the foreclosure sale that you must move out, the new owner becomes your new landlord and must maintain the property. Otherwise: • You do not owe rent; • The new owner is not your landlord and is not responsible for maintaining the property on your behalf; and • You must move out by the date the new owner specifies in a notice to you. The new owner may offer to pay your moving expenses and any other costs or amounts you and the new owner agree on in exchange for your agreement to leave the premises in less than 90 days or before your fixed term lease expires. You should speak with a lawyer to fully understand your rights before making any decisions regarding your tenancy. IT IS UNLAWFUL FOR ANY PERSON TO TRY TO FORCE YOU TO LEAVE YOUR DWELLING UNIT WITHOUT FIRST GIVING YOU WRITTEN NOTICE AND GOING TO COURT TO EVICT YOU. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS, YOU MAY WISH TO CONSULT A LAWYER. If you believe you need legal assistance, contact the Oregon State Bar at 800452-7636 and ask for the lawyer referral service.

St. Helens unbeaten at Parkrose Tourney BY KYLE BOGGS The Chronicle

PORTLAND — There’s a common saying in basketball: “Never leave the gym without making your last shot.” The second-ranked St. Helens High School volleyball team (11-2, 6-0) adapted that saying over the weekend. A trip to Parkrose High School on Sept. 28 marked the last Saturday tournament of the season for the Lions. With no more opportunities to win a tournament, they went out and won all 12 sets they played in the tournament to take first place. St. Helens had finished third at its two previous tournaments. In the three total tournaments this season, the Lions did not lose a match in pool play. At Parkrose, St. Helens beat Franklin (2-7) 25-11, 25-17, Woodburn (0-8) 25-13, 25-4, and Hood FOOTBALL

River Valley (3-9) 25-12, 25-19 in pool play. St. Helens beat The Dalles (1-7) in the first round of bracket play, 2515, 25-15. The Lions beat the host Parkrose Broncos (4-6) 25-21, 27-25 in the semifinals. St. Helens was up against No. 4 Cleveland (9-2) in the finals. Cleveland beat St. Helens in three sets during the Lions’ first tournament of the season. This time around, the Lions had no trouble with the Warriors, winning 25-12, 25-23. During the six matches, St. Helens totaled 52 aces and 163 attack kills. Junior Taylor Albertson led the team in both categories, acing 16 serves and putting down 58 kills. Senior Gabby Susee was 100 percent on her serves with six aces and 35 kills. Senior Kali Moore had eight aces and 28 kills. Senior Madison Kaplan served 98 percent with seven aces. Senior Kylie Reinholdt had five

aces, eight kills and passed 90 percent. During the week, the Lions continued their tear through the Northwest Oregon Conference. The Lions beat the Rex Putnam Kingsmen (2-6, 2-4) in three sets on Sept. 24, winning 25-21, 27-25, 2624. St. Helens then went to four sets in a home win against the Liberty Falcons (5-5, 3-3). The first three sets were all close, St. Helens winning 25-22 and 25-23, and Liberty taking a 26-24 win in the third set. Then the Lions got down to business in a 25-15 fourth set. Head coach Tom Ray said his team gave away too many points in both matches. “We are constantly working on forcing teams to have to work for their points,” Ray said. As has been the case most of the season, the Lions knew exactly where to find their own points against See SHHS, Page A16

ST. HELENS — Gage Bumgardner became the first St. Helens quarterback in more than three years to throw for 200 yards in a game, and the Lion defense forced five turnovers in a 377 rout of the Hood River Valley Eagles (1-4). Despite the wet, slippery weather at Doc Ackerson Stadium, Bumgardner completed 12 of his 16 pass attempts for 213 yards and a pair of touchdowns. Andrew Paulson was the last SHHS QB to throw for 200 yards when he passed for 202 in a 40-35 loss to Sandy in 2010. Both of Bumgardner’s touchdown passes came in the first quarter. He found senior Tanner Long for a 21yard score, then hit senior Devon Jewett down the visiting sideline for a 25-yard TD. “I thought he was very efficient. He played a great game. They did some things defensively that kind of set him up to have a good game. He’s just got a great attitude; he handled the weather well,” said St. Helens coach Jared Phillips. “His receivers did a good job catching the ball on a stormy night.” Bumgardner spread the ball around to a half-dozen different receivers. Long caught four passes for 52 yards and the quarterback’s younger brother, sophomore Bryce Bumgardner, caught three passes for 97 yards. In addition to his touchdown catch, Jewett made a diving grab for a 22-yard gain that set up a Lion touchdown the next play. The St. Helens offense often got the ball with a very

BANKS — The 2013 Cowapa League season started with a showdown between the reigning league champion Scappoose Indians (3-2, 0-1) and the 2012 Cowapa League runner-up Banks Braves (5-0, 1-0). The second-ranked Braves avenged last season’s blowout loss by taking a 21-0 home win over the seventh-ranked Indians. “We didn’t play well enough to win the game. We played well defensively at times,” said Scappoose coach Sean McNabb. “It wasn’t because of a lack of effort – we didn’t capitalize on some opportunities.” Those specific opportunities he was referring to were some mishandled snaps to the quarterback, senior Garret

Markham. Several snaps either went over Markham’s head or through his hands, but the senior QB managed to turn them into positive plays for Banks. A wet, muddy night played a part in those snaps. The conditions were sloppy for most of the game. “It definitely didn’t help us at all. Again, Banks had to play in it too,” McNabb said. It seemed to affect both teams early, as neither highpowered offense was able to score in the first quarter. It wasn’t until a couple minutes before halftime that Banks got on the board with a 2-yard run from senior running back Jarod Barger. Barger ended up scoring all three Banks TDs. The Braves also had success throwing the ball against the Indians, with Markham completing 15-of-21 passes for 261 yards. See TRIBE, Page A14

SOCCER

Columbia County Christian School starts from scratch They don’t have their own schoolhouse, let alone their own athletic field. But that isn’t stopping Columbia County Christian School from fielding a soccer team this fall for the first time in the school’s brief history. The school – located in a building attached to Warren Community Fellowship – has students in grades K-11. It opened in 2005 and has added a grade level each year. Twelfth grade will be added next year. Now, there are 17 students in grades 9-11. “This is the second year of this league. The other schools have been pretty established,” said Beth Winegar, a school administrator as well as an assistant soccer coach. “There are 10 schools in the district; I think we’re the smallest.” Ten of those 17 CCCS students are on the soccer team, along with two home school students. The team is split evenly, six boys, six girls. It competes in the boys 3A/2A/1A Special District 1, made

up of sevHOME GAMES eral other The Eagles have Christian home games on Oct. schools around the 10 and Oct. 21, both Portlandat 4:15 p.m. at Grace metro Baptist Church area. So far the Eagles haven’t had a lot of success in the win-loss column – starting off 0-5. But that is to be expected of a first-year program. Of the 12 players on the team, three of the girls had never played soccer before this fall. One of the more experienced players is injured. “They’ve really come together and decided we’re gonna have fun, not worry about the score,” said the team’s head coach, Cheryl Hopkins. It was clear to see the team accomplished that during the first home game in CCCS history. On a drizzly afternoon Sept. 30, Eagle fans packed the well-manicured sidelines at Grace Baptist Church – where CCCS is

playing its three home games this season – to cheer on their team. One fan was even sporting an Eagle mask. That support has the coaches enthusiastic about the team’s future. “Everybody’s excited about continuing. They’re having a blast,” Winegar said. While this is the first season for soccer, CCCS has been a member of the Oregon School Activities Association for two years. Last year the Eagles fielded a cross country team. This year, the school is looking at having a track team. In the future, basketball teams are a possibility as well. To offer soccer and these other sports, the school needs – and has – dedicated volunteers. Winegar and Hopkins drive the players to the games in their own vehicles. Not only do they drive them to away games, they must drive them to the home games and practices as well. The practices are at Warren Elementary School for now. – Kyle Boggs

Indians entering Scappoose fights Tribe teams finish the the home stretch wind at Nike meet week without a loss BY KYLE BOGGS The Chronicle

It’s been an up-and-down ride for the Scappoose Indians (6-7, 2-2). As they enter the final six matches of the regular season, the Tribe has neither won more than two matches in a row nor lost more than two matches in a row. That trend played out last week, as Scappoose started the week with a three-set loss to the No. 6 Banks Braves (10-3, 4-0). Banks won 25-14, 25-12, 25-16. “Banks played incredible defense, as we only hit 23 percent kills along with 15 errors. Our problem was our serve receive was not good tonight. We gave them too many free points,” said Scappoose coach Mark Sprenger. On the bright side, Scappoose was 41-of-42 on serves. “We did serve an exceptionally high serving percentage but we had no aces. I would prefer that we serve a bit tougher and try to get some easy points while missing a few more serves,” Sprenger said. Two nights later at Seaside (3-8, 0-4) the Indians tallied five aces on 96-percent serving (68-for-71). Scappoose also upped its

kill percentage from 23 to 37. That led to a 25-23, 2521, 25-22 win for the Indians. “We played an overall good game. We had a season-high 41 kills. We passed the ball well. Our serving was on point,” Sprenger said. “I give the defense a lot of credit as well. We kept the ball in play and gave an opportunity to score on almost every rally.” On Sept. 28 Scappoose went to North Marion High School for a tournament. The Indians won two of their three pool play matches, beating South Umpqua (2-8, 1-5) 25-15, 25-16) and Cottage Grove (7-4, 3-1) 25-20, 25-20. Scappoose split with Myrtle Point (4-4, 1-1) 2225, 25-19. In the first bracketed round, Elmira topped Scappoose 27-25, 25-12. “We played really well in pool play. We had game one against Elmira and just couldn’t close it out. We then proceeded to fall apart in game two,” Sprenger said. “I would say it was a morning success and an afternoon meltdown.” Scappoose was at home against Yamhill-Carlton (36, 1-3) on Oct. 1. The Indians go to 10th-ranked Astoria (8-3, 3-1) on Oct. 3, and then are at Tillamook (54, 2-2) on Oct. 7.

PORTLAND — Dan Carrier finished third individually and his team finished in fourth place in the Division III varsity race at the Nike Pre Nationals on Sept. 28. Carrier, a junior, finished in 17:37 to lead the Indians. Senior Hunter Hoyt was the second Scappoose runner to cross the finish line with a time of 18:16. He finished 18th overall in a 155-runner field. Scappoose finished fourth behind Lowell, Franklin and Catlin Gabel. Coach David Harley said he still sees areas his squad can get better. “We need to get tougher in the middle portion of races to fully reach our potential and hopefully will see improvement in that area this coming weekend,” he said. Junior Rachel Bode led the way for the girls. With a

time of 23:13, she ended up in 36th place out of 144 runners. “Rachel has been a wonderful surprise this season and will only get better as the season moves forward. She is doing very well in her first season,” Harley said. As a team, the Indians were 16th. Junior Charlie Davidson ran in the elite Jim Danner Championship Race, where she finished 37th out of 132 runners with a time of 20:29. Harley said the times were all relatively slow because of “unbelievable wind” at the course. This week Scappoose will compete at the Trojan Relays at Trojan Park on Oct. 3 at 4 p.m., then head to Philomath for the Paul Mariman Invitational on Oct. 5.

TRIBE: ready to rebound at home Friday

“They did throw the ball fairly well against us. He was able to get out of the pocket, make some things happen. They hit us on some stuff vertically, in the seam a couple times. We didn’t make plays when we needed to, didn’t cover as well as we needed to,” McNabb said. On the other side of the ball, the Tribe had trouble sustaining drives. Senior receiver Justice Oman caught three passes for 85 yards. That amounted to more than half of Scappoose’s yards from scrimmage.

St. Helens confident entering league Lions eyeing 1st win A young St. Helens boys soccer team (0-6) suffered a pair of setbacks last week. The Lions dropped a 4-1 home contest to the No. 4 South Albany Rebels (6-0-1) on Sept. 23. Then the Lions traveled to Hermiston to face the Bulldogs (3-3), where they fell 30. Quintin Sophomore Galvin scored the team’s goal against South Albany. Head coach Oscar Monteblanco said his team is creating plenty of scoring opportunities, but the Lions

PREPCALENDAR OCT. 2 – 8 coach Simon Date. Hamilton – who almost missed the game – scored her third goal of the season in the first half. “She was sick, wasn’t going to play. We stopped her from practicing yesterday. She was great,” Date said. Sophomore goalkeeper Athena Duggan picked up her second shutout of the season.

Barlow took a 2-0 lead in the first half, then pumped in five more goals in the second half. “This was probably the best team we’ve played since I’ve been here. They were phenomenal,” Date said. St. Helens opens the league season at 7 p.m. on Oct. 3 with a home match against Milwaukie (3-2-1, 0-0). Date is

confident his team will shake off the loss from earlier in the week. “Short memory. It wasn’t like we played bad. We didn’t play great, but we didn’t lose because we didn’t play well,” Date said. “If it was 3-0, it would have been rough. The fact it was 7-0, something’s amiss.” – Kyle Boggs

Strang scores a win ST. HELENS — Bryan Strang, a senior on the St. Helens High School cross country team, won a four-team meet at McCormick Park last week. Strang beat a Sherwood runner who had outkicked Strang earlier in the season. “Bryan’s strategy was the same in both races, he just carried it out better at McCormick,” said SHHS coach Gerry Tinkle. Sherwood topped St. Helens in both the boys and girls competitions. St. Helens hosts the Trojan Relays at 4 p.m. on Oct. 3 at Trojan Park.

The 10th-ranked St. Helens Lions girls soccer team (3-3-1, 0-0) earned a 3-0 victory over the Hermiston Bulldogs (1-4, 0-0) at home last week. The Lions then visited the Barlow Bruins (6-1-1, 5-0-1) on Sept. 30 for a final non-league game. The Bruins – ranked fifth in the OSAA 6A Rankings – took a 7-0 win over the Lions. Despite missing several key players against Hermiston, St. Helens was clicking all match. The Lions plugged in some new faces at some new positions and made it work with sophomores Ashley Giesbers and Nicole Hamilton combining for all three goals. Giesbers scored one in the first half. In the second half, she drew a foul in the 18-yard box and was awarded a penalty kick. Hermiston’s goalkeeper made a diving save going to her left, but the Bulldogs were whistled for encroachment – much to the chagrin of their coaches. Giesbers gathered herself, sent the ball in the opposite direction the second time and the goal stood. “It’s good to get Ash scoring some goals again, get the confidence up. That’s what she’s all about,” said St. Helens

LIONS: defensive line pressures Eagles’ offense into mistakes

From PAGE A13

We’ve been taught their offense, been repping it all practice. Justin was making some plays tonight – he did well,” Long said. Even when the Lions weren’t taking the ball away from the Eagles, their front four was hounding Hood River Valley’s quarterback and ball carriers. The Eagles completed just 12 of 35 passes. Phillips said much of that credit goes to the defensive line. “Andrew Sandstrom really helped us defensively. He’s a hard guy to block,” Phillips said. Sandstrom, a defensive tackle, was joined in the middle by senior Mario Olmeda, a transfer. “He’s going to be a great addition for us. He’s 5-10, 260 pounds – he’s a load up front. I thought both those guys did a good job. Our whole D-line play was really good. [Jacob] Zartman, West at D-end – that was a bright spot. They really struggled throwing the ball and they had to do that because our defensive line was so dominant in the run game.” The Lion running game took a blow in the first half when senior running back Brennan Norton went down with a leg injury. Phillips said Norton suffered a spiral fracture in his fibula and will miss the rest of the season. When Norton went down, Long was there to pick up the slack.

SHHS: on to the 2nd half of league

From PAGE A13

the Falcons: The middle blockers. Susee had 25 kills and Albertson had 24. Ray said junior Rianne Tupper passed the ball well against Liberty. At Putnam, Albertson led the team with 16 kills. “Hailee Fischer did an excellent job of setting and serving,” Ray said. St. Helens wrapped up the first half of league play on Oct. 1 with a match at Sherwood (4-5, 3-3). St. Helens plays at Parkrose again on Oct. 3. The Lions return home for an Oct. 8 match against the Sandy Pioneers (6-6, 3-3).

WHO’S NEXT? SANDY PIONEERS St. Helens will play on the road against the Sandy Pioneers (4-1, 21) at 7 p.m. on Oct. 4. The Pioneers pretty much stick to the pistol offense, said St. Helens coach Jared Phillips. “The saying is ‘They are who they are,’ and it really holds true for Sandy,” Phillips said after reviewing multiple game tapes. Sandy’s quarterback – 5-11, 185-pound junior Spencer Barnett – is athletic and a threat when running the ball. He also has multiple running backs rotating into the backfield. Phillips said his defensive line will have a size advantage over Sandy, as will the Lions’ offensive line. While the Lions will be bigger up front, Phillips said the Pioneers do a good job of running to the ball when they’re on defense. Last meeting: Oct. 5, 2012. Sandy 22, St. Helens 13.

position into the backfield and rushed for two touchdowns to go along with his TD catch. “He’s played there at times this season in the backfield, he knows what he’s doing.

He’s a great athlete. He embraces any role that we ask of him,” Phillips said. To Long, carrying the ball was easy, thanks to his teammates.

“This is usually what I do – I run the ball. But you can’t run if you don’t have blockers, you can’t catch if you don’t have a good throw. I just did what I could do to help my team. This game was based on the linemen and based on Gage throwing. I just caught and ran whatever I could,” he said. Long’s second touchdown run came in the third quarter, giving the Lions a 37-0 lead. The Eagles got on the scoreboard when backup quarterback Dallas Buckley hit Wyatt Webber for a 15-yard score with just three minutes left in the game.
