Spirit of Halloweentown activities this week CODY MANN/The Chronicle
Thousands turned out to see the first annual Spirit of Halloweentown parade in St. Helens on Oct. 1. The south Columbia County Chamber of Commerce sponsored the event.
Just visiting: A peek at the Columbia County Jail BY CODY MANN cmann@countrymedia.net
Columbia County Sheriff’s Office (CCSO) held an open house and jail tour on Sept. 29. There were exhibits from each division and explanations on the various services and programs CCSO oversees. Sheriff Jeff Dickerson said the open house was the first opportunity since the jail was built to showcase the facility and the programs provided by CCSO. “I believe it is important for our citizens to understand how the services we provide are carried out, and the degree to which we rely on the public’s good will and partnership in order to keep these vital public safety programs in place,” Dickerson said. Margaret Margruder, a candidate for county commissioner, was among the first group to tour the jail that evening. She shared her thoughts on the facility and the upcoming jail levy vote with The Chronicle. Chronicle: Give us your overall impression of the jail.
Citizens take a close look at the Columbia County Jail.
Magruder: Deputy Townsend was the guide on my tour during the recent Jail Open House. I was pleased to see the excellent physical condition and cleanliness of the facility. While we were there, a prisoner intake occurred and dinner was being served and

The second weekend of the month-long Spirit of Halloweentown festival in St. Helens features a full slate of events capped by a visit by Kimberly Brown, aka Marnie, for the pumpkin light ceremony. Marnie will preside over the ceremony at the courthouse plaza on Saturday at 7:30 p.m. Last year, thousands of people crowded the plaza to watch Marnie perform her magic. Admission is free. In 2015, throngs descended on St. Helens from all over the United States, causing traffic tie-ups and overloading systems. Event organizers learned from those mistakes and this year are better prepared. Traffic to the waterfront area is being rerouted and additional parking on City property is provided adjacent to the event. Organizers also contracted for

portfolios to show prospective clients. “It gives you an opportunity to design without any constraint,” he said. “You don’t have to rely on anybody to fulfill your vision.” He said sometimes the process might take a piece of artwork across platforms, finding the desired result in a whole other medium. The first major project Furnish took on at Wildwood was a set of decorative panels that opened the view of the course from the clubhouse while creating a safety barrier from stray golf balls. He hand-cut and bent 20,000 pieces of steel, spending hundreds of hours to achieve a panoramic representation of the course itself within the panels. Using homemade and modified tools, Furnish manipulated bits of steel, sometimes using a forge and anvil to achieve the right shape, but essentially the entire work is done by hand, relying on elbow grease and sweat to bring his vision to light.

If anything could improve on the natural beauty of Wildwood Golf Course, it is the artistic touch of Clatskanie artist Jeremy Furnish. Furnish has completed a number of artworks in Columbia County in past years, most notably his glass lighting work in the Clatskanie Cultural Center. He recently created a metal and glass “Learning Tree” as part of a benefit drive for schools in Clatskanie as well. Furnish was helping a friend at Wildwood, located outside of Scappose, working as a laborer, moving rocks and other such tasks when course owner Bill O’Meara discovered Furnish was valuable as an artist. After a look at Furnish’s portfolio, O’Meara knew he had the opportunity to add some touches of flair to Wildwood’s aesthetic. “What great family to work with, “ Furnish said. “They really know how to treat an artist.” Working across many artistic platforms, Furnish has numerous

Rainier, ODOT review A Street improvement plan BY JEREMY C. RUARK jruark@countrymedia.net
“It is an accident waiting to happen.” That’s how Rainier Mayor Jerry Cole describes the daily mix of
trains with autos and pedestrians along A Street. “It is a dangerous situation,” he said. “That is my number one concern. I don’t want anyone to get hurt.” In August 2014, the ConnectOregon V program awarded $2,996,264 to the City of Rainier for the “A” Street Safety Corridor project. The funds are being used to relocate/ reconstruct about 2,800 feet of track occupying the center of “A” Street through downtown Rainier. Approximately 1,300 feet of the reconstructed track will be isolated from the street on a narrow median protected from motor vehicle intrusion by raised concrete curbs. At the east end of “A” Street approximately 800 feet of concrete panels
will be placed over the track to facilitate truck and auto mobile access to a business on the waterfront. Two cross streets that intersect “A” Street will be truncated by the new railroad median while other cross streets will be retained as through routes over the track. “It boils down to safety,” Cole said. “The hold up is frustrating because we want to see the work done, but it is a state process that must be done.” Rainier City Administrator Debbie Dudley said the process has required multiple agency participation, including the City of Rainier, ODOT, Burlington Northern Railroad and others. “We want a safe corridor for our citizens” she said. “We are working

in partnership with these agencies to develop a plan that would provide a safe rail corridor but not have a negative impact to our businesses.” Dudley said there have been sev-
eral A Street improvement proposals and ODOT has been working to blend the proposals into a conceptual plan.

Free discussion about leadership at St. Helens public library The October 11 event is part of Oregon Humanities’ statewide Conversation Project Different people have different ideas about what they want and expect from leaders. Our understanding of what constitutes leadership is shaped by the behavior and appearance of the people we call leaders. Many of our ideas about leadership are tied to positions of power and authority and influenced by race, gender, age, and other identities. How are leadership, power, and authority different? What are other names for what we experience as leadership? Is leadership always in service to the greater good? How can we raise up the kinds of leaders who can best serve our communities?
This is the focus of “Looking for Leadership: What Do We Want from Leaders?” a free conversation with Lois Ruskai Melina at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 11, at the St. Helens Public Library. This program is hosted by the St. Helens Public Library and sponsored by Oregon Humanities. Melina has a PhD in Leadership Studies from Gonzaga University, a program that views leadership as a process of individual, organizational, and global change. She has taught leadership at Gonzaga University and Union Institute & University. She was the lead editor of the anthology
The Embodiment of Leadership, and her academic research has appeared in the journals Leadership Review, Global Discourse, The International Journal of Servant Leadership, and Qualitative Inquiry. The St. Helens Public Library strives to be a place where intelligent conversation and debate happen and potentially inspire positive change. Through the Conversation Project, Oregon Humanities offers free programs that engage community members in thoughtful, challenging conversations about ideas critical to our daily lives and our state’s future.

A special moment for Angie Harris BY JEREMY C. RUARK jruark@countrymedia.net
The evening of Tuesday, Sept. 27 was not just any ordinary evening in Clatskanie. It was a special moment for Clatskanie Elementary School students, parents and staff and the community. But the moment was even more special for second grader Angie Harris, 8. As dozens of students, staff, parents and other community members gathered for the dedication of the school’s new playground, Angie, wearing a hard hat, stood in front of the school slide that had been wrapped with a red ribbon for the ceremony. “I have to use big scissors,” Angie said as she prepared to cut the ceremonial red ribbon. “I am excited.” Kara Harris, Angie’s mother, calls her daughter a miracle child. “This is really a special event for us,” Kara Harris said. “Angie is a super special little girl. She is a miracle and just to be a part of this is wonderful. The community has supported her all of her life, so it really means a lot for her to have this privilege.” Harris said her daughter was able to lead the ceremonies with the ribbon cutting following a school auction last year to raise funds for the new playground. “My husband and I were the winners of the auction item to be the chief of the new playground project,” Harris said. “Angie was actually able to go to meetings with the school officials
during the planning of the playground and have some input into the planning.” Harris said the project has been a true learning experience for her daughter. “Just to be involved in it I think she feels like she is part of this, so we are very proud of her,” Harris said. Harris said her daughter was diagnosed with SturgeWeber syndrome. According to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, SturgeWeber syndrome is a neurological disorder indicated at birth by a port-wine stain birthmark on the forehead and upper eyelid of one side of the face. The birthmark can vary in color from light pink to deep purple and is caused by an overabundance of capillaries around the trigeminal nerve just beneath the surface of the face. Sturge-Weber syndrome is also accompanied by abnormal blood vessels on the brain surface and the loss of nerve cells and calcification of underlying tissue in the cerebral cortex of the brain on the same side of the brain as the birthmark. Neurological symptoms include seizures that begin in infancy and may worsen with age. Convulsions usually happen on the side of the body opposite the birthmark and vary in severity. There may be intermittent or permanent muscle weakness on the same side. Some children will have developmental delays and cognitive impairment; most will have glaucoma (increased pressure within the eye) at birth or developing later. The increased
pressure within the eye can cause the eyeball to enlarge and bulge out of its socket (buphthalmos). There is an increased risk for migraine headaches. Sturge-Weber syndrome rarely affects other body organs. “The most amazing thing about Angie is that five years ago she had a portion of her brain removed to cure lifethreatening seizures and she hasn’t had a seizure since, so it’s pretty amazing,” Harris said. “The doctors decided the only way for her to continue to live was to remove the left hemisphere of her brain. She is very much a miracle.” Clatskanie Elementary School Principal Brad Thorud said the new student play area was developed after student behavioral changes were noted and to provide more options for play and learning. He said the new play area encourages positive, creative, imaginative and cooperative play and engages children through the use of natural elements, such as boulders, logs, and plants, slides and swings and an imaginative play area. Grants, fundraisers and a tax incentive from Port Westward funded the $270,000 cost of the new school playground. The playground design evolved over the past three years through community outreach that included involving Clatskanie Elementary School students and Learning Landscapes designer Michelle Mathis.

A community celebration was held Tuesday, Sept. 27, to dedicate the new playground at Clatskanie Elementary School.

OMIC gains support from Oregon Tech ~ B lotter ~
~ V iew P oints ~ The Oregon Institute of Technology (Oregon Tech) board of trustees unanimously approved the final purchase steps of a facility to house the Oregon Manufacturing Innovation Center (OMIC) research and development center in Scappoose and move ahead with plans to open the facility in 2017.

Dear Sally –
highway side of the building. I also know there was a great need for that building in 1993 and that need is still with us. That building was to be the umbrella of protection for all cats and dogs in our county, regardless of size, color or beauty. To you, Mrs. Holsheimer: please don’t regret your generous donation all these years. It was a good thing. I remember the bright eyes of all those animals. Human lives as well as animal lives have been enriched.

CRFR responds to RV fire On Sept. 28, 2016 at approximately 12:42 a.m., Columbia River Fire & Rescue firefighters were dispatched to a report of an RV on fire in the 32000 block of Canaan Rd. On arrival, firefighters found an approximately 40-foot fifth wheel travel trailer, fully involved in fire next to other vehicles and structures. The fire had spread to an outbuild-
ing and two other vehicles, a full size ford pickup, a compact car and an 18-foot boat on a trailer. It took 13 firefighters approximately 15 minutes to control the fire. One occupant of the trailer was treated at the scene for smoke inhalation but did not require transport to a hospital. Firefighters remained on scene for approximately 90 minutes
putting out hotspots. The cause of the fire is currently under investigation. Damages are estimated to be about $40,000 including contents.

Her family was a priority to her and she loved a party with her children and grandchildren. When at home, she listened to classic rock & roll and country music, the louder, the better. She would joyfully break into song often and always would call the children or grandchildren on their birthdays to sing happy birthday.

If you look closely at the panels, you might even see a Sasquatch. “It’s a story of the golf course,” Furnish said. Furnish is already working on a decorative 25-foot gate for the front entrance of Wildwood, and he has discussed future lighting projects with O’Meara as well. Becoming a sort of
in-house artist for Wildwood has stimulated the creative juices for Furnish, who said there might be years of work ahead of him at the course and clubhouse. With a sense of creative reign and boss who understands creative vision, Furnish is looking forward to working with Wildwood for some time to come. “It’s rare to find to people that really trust you enough to let you dream,” Furnish. “It’s the perfect opportunity.”
Jail From PAGE A1
Chronicle: Where do you stand regarding the proposed jail levy? Magruder: I support the extension of the jail levy. I believe it is important that the Jail Operating Citizens Advisory Committee continue in their role of advising the sheriff and the board of commissioners on the proper appropriation of jail levy funds. Chronicle: There have been questions raised in the community with regard to the size of the jail and number of federal marshal hold beds in the facility. Do you think the jail is appropriately sized for the county?

Arrest made in homicide investigation Jesse Allen Lane, the 28-year-old man sought for questioning regarding the Hightower homicide case in Columbia County, is now in custody in California. 24-year-old Portland resident Apache Rose Hightower’s body was discovered on Sept. 20 at around 4:30 p.m. down an embankment off of Pittsburg Road in the St. Helens area. A subsequent autopsy indicated she was the victim of homicidal violence. Family members suspect Lane was responsible for Hightower’s death. Columbia County Sheriff Jeff Dickerson confirmed a development in the homicide investigation on Sept. 29. “We served a search warrant this morning in connection to the investigation,” Dickerson said. Santa Barbara Police arrested Lane in their city after they contacted him on the street. Lane was being held in the Santa Barbara County Jail on an Oregon State Parole Board warrant. Lane has not been charged in the Hightower case at this time. “The team has been putting in long hours and the homicide investigation is continuing to move forward,” Dickerson said. “Lane will be extradited back to Oregon soon.” “When he is returned, he will be processed at the Coffee Creek Correctional Facility in Wilsonville,” Dickerson said. “No matter where he ends up, we will

vehicles traveling on Old Portland Road in the vicinity of the Scappoose Bay Marina in the early morning hours of Sept. 20. The video can be seen on The Chronicle’s website and Facebook page. The team was eager to talk with anyone who may have been in that area at 4:32 a.m. The drivers of the cars are sought as potential witnesses. Anyone with information should call the sheriff’s office tip line at 503-366-4698 and leave callback information.
Chronicle: Are there any changes to policy regarding the jail that you might encourage if you were elected to the county commission? Magruder: At this time I have no policy changes to put forth. I will encourage efficient operation based on mandated services and sound fiscal policy. Chronicle: Any thoughts on mental health issues as they relate to criminal justice? An estimated 30 percent of inmates at the jail are
Magruder: The Columbia County jail is designed to hold more prisoners than it has thus far been staffed to house. With the addition of the levy funding, the jail has been able to increase the number of local prisoners and to eliminate the need for early releases due to lack of space. Based on the information provided in the recent Jail Operating

Citizens Advisory Report, the practice of housing federal prisoners has been a revenue positive action.
“We need to have a consensus with what the proposal will look like so that we can take it to our citizens for review,” she said. The Rainier City Council received an update from the Oregon Department of Transportation concerning improvements along A Street at a work session Monday night, October 3. According to the Oregon Department of Transportation spokesman Lou Torres, the purpose and goal of the “A” Street Streetscape and Railroad Safety Improvements Project is to address safety, mobility, and livability issues along “A” Street. The project area extends from West 2nd Street to the end of asphalt just beyond East 6th Street. Reconstruction of “A” Street is a significant part of the City’s Downtown Riverfront Urban Renewal Plan and Revitalization Master Plan. “The project will improve “A” Street’s multimodal functional safety, upgrade its deteriorated condition, and provide aesthetic streetscape
suffering from a significant mental health issue, which has led to an increase in Crisis Intervention Training for law enforcement in our area and the inception of a jail diversion program. Magruder: Mental health and drug abuse issues continue to be a challenge to law enforcement. It is important for law enforcement personnel to have the proper training to address these situations to ensure the safety of both the inmates and the personnel. It is essential to identify those inmates who require treatment and to work with the appropriate agencies to provide those services to limit recidivism.

improvements that support the economic development goals of the City,” Torres said. Torres said the main area of discussion is how many parking spaces will be removed to accomplish the goals of the project. “Some initial alternatives considered a loss of anywhere between 60 to 100 parking spaces in the downtown area,” Torres said. “No city and its businesses want to lose parking. We understand that and are very sensitive to that issue. However, it is very difficult to build this project without losing some parking.” Following the ODOT presentation and discussion with the Rainier City Council, ODOT Project Manager Kenneth Kohl said more work must be done to develop an acceptable plan. “As we refine this plan, the council wants us to modify the intersection at 1St Street at A that would limit the ability for trucks to make it through that intersection which would create six additional parking spaces at that intersection,” he said. Kohl said the City Rainier will commit to making improvements at Veterans Way and A Street to accommodate
trucks to get through A Street and access businesses and the Post Office. Stormwater issues connected to the A Street fix were also discussed at the Rainier ODOT workshop. “Regardless of the design options we will have to treat stormwater,” Kohl said. “It looks like the option we are going to have to go with is some sort of mechanical treatment system, but we have to meet with the regulatory agencies yet and detail that with them.” Cole said the estimated cost of the improvements could be as high as $7 million. A graph provided by ODOT illustrates confirmed funding sources including $3 million from ConnectOregon V, $1,650.000 from Regional Solutions Team and $750,000 from G&W /P&W Railroad. Committed sources including $365,000 from Business Oregon, $18,333 from Global Companies, $18,333 from Port of St. Helens and $2,000,000 from ODOT Rail Division. Kohl said ODOT and the City of Rainier are moving ahead with the plan in hopes of starting the improvements sometime in 2018.
continue our investigation [of] any part he might have played in the death of Ms. Hightower.” Lane’s has a lengthy criminal history, including menacing, furnishing alcohol to a minor, and giving false information to police. In August of 2012, Lane was accused in Jackson County of kidnapping, rape, sodomy, sexual abuse and strangulation. In 2013, Lane was convicted of burglary and sentenced to three years of probation. He was indicted in January of 2014 for robbery and burglary and his probation was revoked in June of that year. He was recently charged with robbery, a theft, harassment, assault, violating parole and he faces an upcoming court date for those accusations.

Pizza tickets: Local police recognize upstanding youth BY CODY MANN cmann@countrymedia.net
St. Helens Police Department wrapped up a two-month citation campaign at SunShine Pizza by throwing a pizza party to celebrate youth who were issued citations for performing acts of good behavior. The citation program was part of a police department campaign to recognize good deeds performed by St. Helens youth. City of St. Helens would like to extend a very special thank you to Todd Stansbury and SunShine Pizza for hosting the pizza party, providing the food, drinks, and root beer onicle floats free of charge, and for working with the St. Helens Police Department to create this program. St. Helens Police Depart-
ment officers issued citations to youth spotted doing good deeds around the city of St. Helens. The “pizza citation” requested an appearance at Sunshine Pizza in September for a party with officers of the St. Helens Police Department. According to Chief of Police Terry Moss, a few years ago some businesses in the community provided the department with coupons for free treats such as burgers or ice cream to be given to young people who did good deeds or made positive choices. Moss said the concept was refreshed when Sunshine Pizza’s owner Stansbury heard about another department doing something similar, and Stansbury offered to help the department refresh the idea with pizza coupons. Sgt. Joe Hogue was credited for taking the idea to the
next level – a pizza party with the police and kids. Rather than having ticket recipients redeem their rewards individually, Hogue suggested gathering everybody together to recognize the positive community activity. Moss said the department collaborated with Sunshine Pizza to design a new sort of ticket – a ticket to a pizza party. “It gives the kids the idea that the police aren’t always out looking for the negatives in our community,” Moss said. “We interact with the community all day, every day, and it’s nice when we see things that are positive and are able to respond to that.” Congratulation to all the young people of St. Helens caught performing good deeds around town - you make the future a brighter place!
Bonamici invites students to compete in Congressional app challenge Rep. Suzanne Bonamici (D-OR) announced that her office is now accepting submissions for the Congressional App Challenge. Students who live or attend school in Oregon’s First Congressional District are invited to participate. The First Congressional District includes Washington, Yamhill, Clatsop, and Columbia Counties and part of Multnomah County. The challenge is open to students who are in high school and younger. “Creativity and innovation are key to our economy and essential to future economic growth,” Bonamici said. “The Congressional App Challenge is a great opportunity for students to display their skills and show their creativity in a project that engages both halves of the brain. I look forward to seeing all the new app
ideas from our northwest Oregon students.” Bonamici is a founder and co-chair of the Congressional STEAM Caucus, which advocates for the integration of the arts and design into STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) education to encourage creative thinking and engage more students. By supporting and recognizing young programmers, Congress is acknowledging the growing importance of these fields. The U.S. House of Representatives organizes the nationwide Congressional App Challenge each year. Students across the country will compete by creating and demonstrating a software application, or app, for mobile, tablet, or computer devices. A panel of local experts will review the submissions for
creativity, originality, user experience, and design, among other criteria. Students entering the competition must submit their app’s source code online before Nov. 2, as well as provide a video demonstration explaining their app and what they learned through the competition process. Winners from each participating congressional district will be acknowledged in a district award ceremony and featured on the House.gov website. There will also be a display in the U.S. Capitol Building to honor all of the winners from across the country. More information on the competition, including how to register is available at: https://bonamici.house. gov/serving-you/congressional-app-challenge.
Traffic plan for spirit of Halloweentown event The City of St. Helens has created a traffic plan, which includes traffic pattern changes in anticipation of the large crowds expected to visit St. Helens on October 8 to see actress Kimberly J. Brown at Spirit of Halloweentown events. Visitors to the event are being advised to travel down Gable Road or Old Portland Road to Plymouth Street and into the former Boise Veneer lot. The lot will be used as parking for Spirit of Halloweentown events. Parking is $10 and is cash only. The Plymouth Street gate will be the only access point for vehicles onto the lot. Limited handicap parking spaces will be available. There will be in
and out privileges. South 1st Street will be closed all day on October 8 from the intersection of St. Helens Street to Cowlitz Street. Local access to Cowlitz Street will be available via South 4th Street to Tualatin Street. At 8:30 p.m., traffic control lights at the intersections of South 18th Street and Old Portland Road and Highway 30 and Gable Road will be turned off and manually signaled to assist with traffic flow as visitors leave the riverfront. Vehicles will be directed out of the Boise Veneer lot and along Plymouth Street and South 10th Street to Old Portland Road. St. Helens Police Department will be
manually signaling traffic at this intersection. From there, vehicles will drive along Old Portland Road to the intersection of South 18th Street where the intersection will again be manually signaled. Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) will manage the manual signaling of vehicles onto Highway 30 at the Gable Road intersection. If possible, local traffic should avoid these routes on October 8. Motorists who choose to turn left onto Highway 30 from Bennett Road are advised that heavy traffic is anticipated to be traveling toward Portland. Left hand turns may be dangerous.

District report card shows improvements for St. Helens BY CODY MANN cmann@countrymedia.net
Students in the St. Helens school district are making academic gains. The 2015-16 assessment from the Oregon Department of Education showed increased Smarter Balanced test scores in most fields of study. At least 95 percent of students in the district participated in the exams. According to the district report card, students in grades 3-5 saw increases to language arts, mathematics and science scores, although language arts was still a few points under the state average. The report card gave students in grades 6-8 a big increase to the language arts score, cutting the previous year’s 10-point deficit to the state average by half. Grades 6-8 lost a few points in mathematics testing and dipped below the state mark. Science testing for grade 8 students increased and sits above the state average. Students in grade 11 increased scores across the board, exceeding the state averages in language arts and mathematics, but still reaching for the state average in science after a healthy bump. Students are tested in science in grades 5, 8 and 11. Superintendent Scot Stockwell said changes were made to testing formats as Smarter Balanced overtook the OAKS tests of the past. “It requires a lot more reading skills, a lot more hand-eye coordination, especially for our younger kids,” Stockwell said. “Part of the improvement in these scores can be attributed to this
being the second year we’ve taken the test.” Stockwell also credited teachers for aligning themselves with the rigorous common core state standards the Smarter Balanced assessment is based on. “After getting a year or two under our belt on realigning our instruction to the standards we would hope and expect to see some increase in the results,” he said. High school math scores were among the most noteworthy for Stockwell. “Our assessment last year was not great, we were at 19.4, but that wasn’t out of line with what we saw in other districts,” Stockwell said. “Jumping from 19.4 to 38.4, that’s a big increase – and we jumped past the state average.” “I know our high school math department has put in a lot of work,” he said. “The majority of the higher wage, higher skill jobs require a strong math background, and I would say with today’s technology you need that linear thinking that you can develop with math.” Encouraged by the growth in reading skills for grade 3-8, Stockwell said he would like to see that continue until it passes the state average. “My expectation is that we’re beyond the state average in all categories,” he said, adding that it boils down to how teachers engage with students on literacy instruction aided by the support of district-wide initiatives that encourage reading beyond the classroom. An audit of the testing procedure produced a number of comments regarding the complexity in administering the Smarter Balanced tests.
Critics said the test took too long to complete and was difficult to administer among other complications. They also said it creates a drain on resources and instruction time as staff and equipment are juggled to accommodate mass testing in a short window. “It takes up way too much time – in theory the test sounds great – but the amount of time it takes to administer it is too much,” Stockwell said. “But it’s what we have, and so you work with what you’ve got and do the best you can.” He said scores are rising in part because both teachers and students are learning how to work with the test. He added that the state continues to explore other options. “I hope that we continue to improve on the assessment… I’m not sure it’s meeting the needs that we’re hoping to have it meet,” he said. “I think there is a lot of promise in teachergenerated assessments.” Stockwell said he saw the test results as more for guiding policy than for guiding student-teacher interactions. “I’m seeing what I would expect… what we need is other assessments,” he said. “Good assessment monitors as students are moving towards a learning target, and this is just a one-time shot.” He suggested relying more on formative assessments that track along with progress rather summative assessments that are meant to check progress at one moment in time. “We want to know the progression so we can see those gaps and support them,” Stockwell said.

Rainier teacher recognized School district won’t appeal BY JEREMY C. RUARK jruark@countrymedia.net
The Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History has honored Rainier Jr/Sr High School social studies teacher Andrew Demko as Oregon’s National History Teacher of the Year. “It is an honor to be the selection for the State of Oregon 2016,” Demko said. The National History Teacher of the Year Award recognizes outstanding K–12 American history teachers across the country. The national winners each receive a $10,000 prize presented at an awards ceremony in New York. State winners receive a $1,000 prize and an archive of classroom resources. Demko said he would receive the $1,000 later. He said as part of his prize, the Institute has provided history-related books for the school. “We are always proud when one of our teachers gets recognized,” Rainier Jr/ Sr High School Co-Principal Melissa Sandven said. The Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History’s process in selecting the state history teachers of the year involves each state convening a committee to evaluate the award materials. Committee members may include history educators, professors, former state winners and other educational professionals. The selection committee reviews all completed nominations and selects the state winners. The selection is based on: • At least three years of
classroom teaching experience. • Will teach for at least one year following the award year. • A demonstrated commitment to teaching American history. • Evidence of creativity and imagination in the classroom. • Effective use of documents, artifacts, historic sites, oral histories and other primary resources to engage students with American history. According to the The Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History website, the Institute was founded in 1994 by Richard Gilder and Lewis E. Lehrman as a nonprofit organization devoted
to the improvement of history education. The Institute has developed an array of programs for schools, teachers, and students that now operate in all fifty states, including a website that features more than 60,000 unique historical documents in the Gilder Lehrman Collection. Each year the Institute offers support and resources to tens of thousands of teachers, and through them enhances the education of more than a million students. The Institute has been recognized with awards from The White House, the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Organization of American Historians.
marijuana grow operation
BY JEREMY C. RUARK jruark@countrymedia.net
The Rainier School District will not appeal the Columbia County Board of Commissioners decision to approve a marijuana grow operation. The deadline to appeal the ruling to the Oregon State Land Use Board of Appeals was Sept. 30. Rainier School Superintendent Michael Carter said he has informed members of the Rainier School Board of his decision not to appeal the marijuana growing operation near school district boundaries. “After carefully looking into it, I decided an appeal would put the district into too much jeopardy,” Carter said. “We could be held liable for any attorney fees.” Carter said Rainier School District officials would monitor the marijuana operation. “We will watch and monitor to make sure they uphold the standards established by the Columbia County Board of Commissioners, which includes no firearms on the premises, as promised, and that the odor is minimized.” The Columbia County Board of Commissioners upheld the Columbia County Planning Commission’s approval of the marijuana

growing operation following a public appeal hearing held on Aug. 31 in St. Helens. RAD Nursery Products LLC plans to use a 24,000 sq. ft. building to house the indoor marijuana farm. The building is located across the street from Hudson Parcher Park and close to Rainier’s school sports fields. The conditions established by the Columbia County Board of Commissioners include
that the company must keep the grow operations indoors, no outdoor growing will be allowed. A wastewater disposal plan must be approved by the county sanitarian, and a parking plan must be devised as well. Also, the county does not provide the business with immunity from federal prosecution, should there be a shift at the federal level regarding marijuana laws.

Hercules! Hercules! Clatskanie powerlifter to compete in world championships BY CLAUDE AKINS
cakins@countrymedia.net | @claude_akins
If you told Cameron Martinot six years ago he would be spending his Saturday lifting as much as 1200 pounds of weight, he probably would have scoffed. But here we are: the Clatskanie resident will be competing at the World Powerlifting Championships this Saturday in Clackamas, OR. Back then, Martinot was working towards an associates degree from Lower Columbia College and he couldn’t benchpress his own body weight, let alone the 300-pound goal he’ll be aiming for this weekend. “One of my friends tried to get me into it and I never really did, and then when I got out of college I guess you could say I packed on the freshmen 15 and wanted to do something about it,” Martinot said. “I started exercising and decided that I really didn’t like doing crunches and jogging and that kind of stuff, so I started doing some research and realized that with very heavy bench pressing and squatting, you kind of get more bang for your buck.” At that time he weighed 140 pounds and, in his own words, had a slight frame that lacked muscle tone. Something must have clicked for Martinot, because he began to do push-ups and curls throughout the day, until he discovered powerlifting and was intrigued not only by its benefits, but also by the skilled technique required to lift tremendous amounts of weight. He said he watched thousands of hours of YouTube videos, including Elliot Hulse of strengthcamp.com and world-record-holding powerlifter Chris Duffin. Duffin, you could say, has jumped from the screen: the Clakamas-based lifter and Martinot now have a friendly
personal relationship, and Martinot has competed at his gym. That type of relationship, Martinot said, is common in the powerlifting community, which prides itself on its supportiveness and inclusivity. “Everybody in the crowd just wants you to succeed,” Martinot said. “And even now, I train with a lot of the guys that I’m technically competing against. But we don’t look at it that way… We pretty much compete to beat our own numbers; we don’t really care about what everybody else is doing.” That type of inclusivity extends across gender lines as well – men and women alike train together. “I’ve gotten a lot more info that relates to me from women just because I am on the smaller end of things,” Martinot said. “And so the way that I lift weights is more similar to the women than those 300 pound guys just because their bodies are built so much different than mine.” “I think there are a lot of people that think that these women are going to be these masculine, big women, and the vast majority of them really aren’t. Most of them don’t look the way people probably think they look.” The image of the massive powerlifter, Martinot says, is not always accurate. While those people are certainly competing, the sport also attracts leaner men and women who, in terms of their body weight versus what they lift, are actually stronger lifters. “I think a lot of the time when people think of power-lifters they think of three hundred pound [people]. While there are those people…it’s definitely turning more into an athletic look. There’s a lot of guys like myself, that are leaner, smaller, and, compared to their body weight, actually a lot stronger.” Now Martinot is at around
185 pounds and aims to deadlift 500 pounds, squat 420 pounds and bench 300. All of these lifts can be dangerous if performed incorrectly and that’s why Martinot urges anyone who is thinking of getting into the sport to first educate themselves. But if you want to lift one thing is for certain: you have to squat and you have to bench press. “You got to squat and you got to bench press. I don’t think you necessarily have to dead lift right off the bat, just because that takes a lot of skill,” Martinot said. “I actually dead-lifted for many years improperly and I’m lucky I didn’t get injured. I eventually had to back off and learn how to do it correctly.” “The squat is probably the scariest one really,” Martinot said. “You have that weight just sitting on your back and it feels kind of like gravity is multiplied by three times. You hold your breath when you squat and it feels like all that air is trying to come out of your face. Every muscle in your body is working from your toes to your eyelids.” He also urges any lifters to invest in a pull-up bar if they want to really compete. “I see a lot of guys with messed up shoulders and what not, and a lot of that has to do with basically an imbalance: their chest and shoulders can bench press 400 pounds but their back isn’t strong enough to do a single pull-up.” Perhaps most importantly, remember what you learned in P.E: stretch before you lift. Sitting in a car or at a desk for long periods of the day affect your body, and those areas cannot get stronger through lifting unless they are stretched out beforehand. Martinot’s goals have changed since he found success in the sport. Whereas before he set specific numbers as his goal, now he

thinks in terms of records. He would like to one day be a state record holder, but that would likely require him to move down a weight class. If he were to focus on the military press – a press that is performed standing up – then he believes he can break the world record within the year, which is currently at 205 pounds, only 20 pounds greater than what he can currently lift. In any case, his thinking has changed vastly from when he first began lifting
four years ago. “When I first started to get into heavier training I had these numbers in mind,” Martinot said. “A 350 pound bench press, 450 pound squat, and a 550 pound dead lift. And I thought that those would be really cool numbers to hit over the course of a lifetime, and now that I’m pretty close to those numbers it’s like, ‘Well, maybe I shouldn’t really set limits.’” One goal he has given himself is to lift 1200 total pounds this weekend in

Clackamas. And whether he succeeds or not, the 25-year old plans to take some time off from competition: he’ll be getting married this May and though he is considering competing as early as July, his next competition will more likely be in October. When he’s not lifting, he’s singing for his band, Out of Place. And though that’s the way he might have felt in the weight room five years ago, today he’s right at home.

Lions facing questions as playoffs approach BY CLAUDE AKINS
cakins@countrymedia.net | @claude_akins
After a tough loss to La Salle on Sept. 27, the Lions bounced back with a road win over Putnam. St. Helens currently sits at third place in the Northwest Oregon Conference behind La Salle (10-3) and Sandy (10-4). The latest La Salle loss (25-22, 25-12, 25-13) marks the second time this season the Lions have fallen to their biggest rival in the NWOC: in their home bout against the Falcons on Sept. 1 they fell in three sets by a margin of five or more in every set (25-17, 25-19,25-20). One of the factors contributing to the Falcons success over the Lions is the presence of great outside hitting, in particular the play of senior Emmerson Smith. Due to the Lions relative lack of height, blocking these hits is a challenge, and the Lions will have to win through their self-described “scrappy” style of play – that
means digging and passing at high percentages. Still, there remains reasons for optimism: the Lions were away at La Salle, playing at the notorious “brick oven,” and they were missing two crucial players, setter Sara West and outside hitter Abby Russell – who, in particular, adds a dimension to their striking game playing opposite Brianna Cathers. Their serving, however, continues to be excellent. Against La Salle the Lions served at 96 per cent. At Putnam the Lions served even better, finishing the night with 97 per cent serving. Maika Kalauli stepped up for the Lions in the loss, with 83 per cent passing, 100 per cent serving, and five kills. A steady constant this year has been the play of Cathers: in the past two games she hasn’t missed a serve and has racked up 26 kills. And that play, as well as the play of the other seniors, Russell and libero Mercedes Massey, will be
critical for the Lions going forward as they fight for playoff seeding. With only six games remaining, the stakes increase with each game. Ideally, the Lions will finish second in the NWOC and automatically qualify for the 16-team bracket. This will give them a topeight seed and, considering the team finished with the fourth seed in 2015, anything outside of an automatic bid would be a mild disappointment. If they do not finish second in the NWOC, the Lions will need to compete in a play-in game to make the playoffs. They host their next two games against Parkrose (which took place Tuesday night; the results were unavailable at the time of print) and Milwaukie before hosting a tournament this Saturday. Their next game against Sandy, who currently is second in the NWOC, is on Oct. 18 – the Lions’ second-to-last game of the season.

Lions stay aggressive in loss to Hillsboro BY CLAUDE AKINS
cakins@countrymedia.net | @claude_akins
The Lions lost a thriller to Hillsboro last Friday, losing the game on the final possession of overtime. “We got two pretty good teams going against each other, pretty even teams,” head coach Cory Young said. “The turnovers - that really hurt us there at the end. Turnovers are a big deal. You need to win the turnover battle to win the close games.” One of those turnovers came at the end of the second half. After the Lions (3-2) had scored on a quarterback sneak at the goal line from Levi Norton to go up 14-7, Haidon Allen intercepted Spartans (2-3) Terrell Mims in Spartans territory. Less than a minute remained on the clock and the Lions decided to try and put more points on the board before halftime. It backfired: senior linebacker Zach Fritzler picked off Norton and ran it back to the 3-yard line. Star runner Sage Roundtree punched it in to the end zone from there and the score was 1414 going into the half. It was patented St. Helens aggressive play. “When you got momentum you want to keep it,” Young said. “And we had all of our timeouts. We practice the two-minute drill all the time and we’ve done really well at scoring before the end of the half in a lot of games.” History supports that thinking: in fact, only two weeks ago a 65-yard pass to Allen at the end of the half against Milwaukie broke open the game for the Lions as they went on to win, 54-7. “That same nature has helped us out during the season, but we missed a guy and it led to a long pick,” Young said. “We still had a chance to play defense and we missed a few angles at the end.” “We’re going to attack; we’re not going to change our nature. So when we got the ball with forty seconds and three timeouts we’re
going to try and put another score on the board.” The Lions stayed aggressive throughout the game, and the gutsiest call of all was the potential game-winner. The Lions were trailing 28-21 in overtime after a Josh Jones touchdown reception. Dylan Brady scampered for a 13-yard touchdown to bring the Lions within one: the home team stayed aggressive and went for the two-point conversion. Norton threw a slant to Myles Terry. It hit his chest – but senior Andrew Castillo broke up the play with a hit. “Three yards and you got the win,” Young said. He also noted that the team had suffered some injuries throughout that game, including a hit to Tucker Mosley only three plays earlier. Without one of their top defensive talents on the field, the task of stopping Hillsboro after a long, grueling game grew even more difficult. “We had two different options and we were going to see how they lined up,” Young said. “We weren’t sure if they were going to play a safety over the top and double Myles or if we would get a better matchup on the trips side. And presnap, we got the look we wanted and we went after it, we just happened to miss it a little bit.” The return of Terry, who has been out since the second game of the season with a torn labrum, added a dimension to the Lions offense. He led the team in both receptions and receiving yards, catching four passes for 51 yards. “It opens up part of our game,” Young said. “You look to it last year with having Bryce [Bumgardner] out there. It gets you out of situations when guys got the box packed and you got one-on-ones on the outside, it gives you a great option to go attack it.” Memorably, the Lions went to Terry on a streak on a crucial third down, and the seniors connected

for a 30-yard bomb. Terry, however, did not record a touch from the backfield. Instead, he spent most of his time playing receiver at the weak side, or the X-receiver position. In 2015 Terry got plenty of touches out of the backfield; going forward, it will be interesting to see whether or not the Lions try to incorporate him into the running game. “We got a lot of guys that can run the ball,” Young said. “But we really thought putting him at X made us that much more of a dangerous offense and opened up different elements in our passing game.” This marks the seventh year in a row the Lions have lost to the Spartans. This week they face Parkrose (1-4) in the cozy confines of Doc Ackerson Stadium. Kick off is at 7:00 p.m.

Lions looking to regain lost ground in the NWOC BY CLAUDE AKINS
cakins@countrymedia.net | @claude_akins
The Lions will look to notch their second league win of the season this Friday, when Portland’s Parkrose comes to town. After two consecutive tough losses to Wilsonville (14-23) and Hillsboro (2728) – two teams in the top tier of the Northwest Oregon Conference – the Lions have an opportunity to regain some momentum against the struggling Broncos (1-4). Historically, this match up has been up and down. Parkrose beat the Lions two years
in a row, in 2013 and 2014, but the Lions came out strong last year and beat Parkrose on their Portland turf, 38-18. Parkrose has hung around the middle of the NWOC for the last four years before dropping to below .500 last season, and then taking another drop this season, falling to last place in the conference. Still: the Lions know they shouldn’t sleep on any team, and, after losing two winnable games in a row, it’s important for St. Helens to gain some confidence and make improvements before they enter the last two games of the season when they face Putnam and Sandy, two teams currently
sitting ahead of them in the standings. Indeed, these next two games – they play La Salle after Parkrose – are a relatively soft point in the Lions’ schedule, and two consecutive wins while the teams ahead of them battle it out could result in the Lions returning to the top of the conference. This week could be especially impactful: as St. Helens plays Parkrose, Sandy (3-2, second in conference) battles with Wilsonville (5-0, first in conference) and Putnam (3-2, third in conference) visits Hillsboro (2-3, fourth in the conference). In other words, this week is an opportunity for
Player of the week:
the Lions to regain some of the ground they lost these last two weeks. Parkrose has its strengths, of course: in particular the tough running of six-foot-two 245-pound fullback, Spencer Tatafu. “Defensively, they have a fullback who runs pretty tough so we got to be ready for him,” head coach Cory Young said. But more than that, it’s about improving upon execution. “It’s just getting back to basics: make sure we’re in the right spot, and everybody’s in the right spot and ready for their assignment.” On the offensive end, the
coach would like to see his offensive line continue to create the gaps that lead to big runs, and to protect Levi Norton long enough for him to find open receivers down the field – especially now that the Lions finally have slot back Myles Terry back on the field. “Offensively, just taking care of business up front,” Young said. “Get some more guys playable, get some more guys rotated into the offensive line; that’s a big thing for us, trying to create more depth there.” Now a win is more important than ever as the stakes increase with each game. Young and the Lions have preached
the “one game at a time” mantra throughout the season – but with every loss, and every win for the teams ahead of them in the NWOC, their playoff hopes grow increasingly dim. Do the Lions feel the pressure of the approaching playoffs? “There was pressure last week to win that game,” Young said. “There’s pressure every week, so we’re focusing on this week, just like we did last week for Hillsboro. You don’t start looking at anything ahead; all we can do is focus on Parkrose right now, so that’s where all of our attention is.”

Senior midfielder and forward Maja Engler was all over the field for the Pioneers. She scored the first goal of the second half for Sandy to put the score at 3-0 on a little chip shot to the right side of the goal, with no defenders in front of her. Despite the efforts of junior midfielder Sophia Estep, the Lions were unable to put points on the board on their way to their first September loss. Head coach Simon Date made it this team’s mission to not lose in September and knew that Sandy would be the biggest obstacle between his team and the realization of that goal. Still, the Lions played tough: especially Estep, whose ability to outrun and juke and dribble around defenders consistently bent the Pioneers’ defense out of shape. Defender Braya Hutton has been adjusting to a new position, the six. Last Thursday’s game against Sandy was the toughest test she has faced so far this year. Though she played admirably, the Pioneers were relentless and continually moved the ball past the midfield. “The thing that I’m probably most proud of her about is that she understands it’s not a glamorous role. She is so important to the team in terms of what she does and how she does it,” head coach Simon Date said. CLAUDE AKINS/The Chronicle
Allen returns a kick against Hillsboro. The running back has kept this offense afloat at times this season, leading the Lions in all-purpose yards. On the defensive end, he consistently makes big tackles and swats down passes as a defensive back.
This season the Lions lost big play slot back Myles Terry for the first part of the year and more recently running back Tyler Rea has missed time– but Haidon Allen has filled in to get the yardage the Lions needed, emerging as the team’s big playmaker this season. Allen has been able to make plays from all over the field. As a runner, receiving option, kick returner and defensive back, Allen makes an impact: the senior is literally all over the field. Allen has led the team in rushing with 293 yards this season on 39 carries for an average of 7.5 yards per carry. As a receiver, Allen leads the team with 200 yards – and memorably brought a pass to the house before the end of the half against Milwaukie on his ne reception of the game. As a rusher, receiver, and kick returner, Allen leads the team
in all-purpose yards. The Lions should look to get the ball in his hands as much as possible: good things happen when they do. And as a player, Allen’s toughness is easy to spot. Last week, as the clocked ticked off the remaining seconds of regulation, the Lions had stopped the Spartan offense and forced a punt. The senior needed a big return to give the Lions a chance to win the game in regulation: he returned it to the Hillsboro 28 with 2.8 seconds left on the clock – enough to try a game-winning kick – only to have the play called back on a holding penalty. Congratulations, Haidon Allen, you’re The Chronicle’s Player of the Week. Allen and the Lions compete at Doc Ackerson stadium this Friday against Parkrose at 7:00 p.m.

The Steele Ware to Dawson Carr connection has been unstoppable this season. Here Carr dives for a catch in the end zone as the Columbians went on to score half as many points against 6A Benson – 78 – as Lewis and Clark League rivals Portland Christian and Clatskanie have scored all season (138, 148). St. Helens (3-2) lost to Hillsboro at home, 28-27, after a failed two-point conversion to win with the final possession. Scappoose (3-2) trounced Tillamook 28-0. Jerad Toman threw a touchdown and ran a touchdown en route to 77 total yards. James Jones hauled in 12 receptions.
Rainier (5-0) continued their dominance, beating Portland school Benson to the (harsh) tune of 78-0. This was the third time this season the Columbians have topped 70 points. 54 – that’s the most points the Columbians have put up in the last four years prior to this season. Clatskanie (3-2) is surging. After losing their first two, they’ve won three in a row. Their latest win came at Illinois Valley, winning on both ends of the field, 35-7. Vernonia (2-3) lost 54-14 to Medford school, St. Mary’s. Gavin Rajagopal was transcendent: the sophomore running back ran for 229 yards on only 11 carries, including a 72-yard run, a 57-yard run, and a 54-yard run, all of which resulted in touchdowns. The star also returned a kick to the house for St. Mary’s. Knappa (2-3) notched their second win of the season against Gaston, winning on the road 48-34.

St. Helens High School
SUCCESS STORIES St. Helens High School and The Chronicle have partnered to highlight the accomplishments of SHHS graduates. This is our second installment of what will be a regular feature in our paper through our Nov. 2 edition. Courtesy photo
Allison Curtis (second from the left) while performing work in the Dominican Republic.
Educational Background: Allison Curtis attended Pacific University in Forest Grove for four years from 2003-2007, where she obtained a B.S. degree in Exercise Science with an emphasis in Integrative Physiology. After spending two years away from education, Curtis attended Chapman University in Orange, CA from 2009-2012 where she earned a Doctorate of Physical Therapy. What was your hardest challenge in getting that preparation?
I think just making it through grad school in general was pretty tough. It’s a lot of hard work, but if you just remind yourself why you’re doing it, surround yourself with a good group of friends and give yourself a break (no, seriously put the books down and go out for dinner and drinks with your classmates and friends at least once a week) it’s doable. Take it one day at a time and before you know it you’ve finished and are applying for jobs. What especially interesting or exciting thing did
you do or learn how to do during your preparation? Everything I learned was interesting and exciting to me. That’s part of the great thing about studying something you love; it all interests you and ever day is exciting. I know more about the human body and what it is capable of than I ever thought possible, and it amazes me every day what that knowledge allows me to do. In my training I was able to work with all sorts of amazing physical therapists and their patients, but by far working at the Shea Therapeutic
Riding Center was one of my best experiences. I got to spend all day outdoors with horses helping young children with disabilities learn new skills every day- what’s not to love about that? What work are you doing now? Now I am working at Providence St. Vincent Medical Center as an inpatient Physical Therapist mainly on the orthopedic and neurologic floors. I love being able to help people regain their ability to move again after a devastating injury
or life-altering event that impairs that ability. I get to help people regain an aspect of themselves that they cherish: their independence. The coolest thing is being able to see the looks on patients’ faces when our hard work together allows them to move in the way they did prior to their stroke, broken leg, brain surgery, etc. How did St. Helens help put you on the path to where you are now? It gave me the building blocks to pursue my chosen career path. It laid down the
foundation that I could start building on and make steps toward my current job as a physical therapist. If you know successful St. Helens High School graduates who are taking care of their families and making a worthwhile contribution to their communities, please send their contact information to mjmunger@ sthelens.k12.or.us We want to recognize them and share the story of their path to success with our students today.

A St. Helens Halloween Tale A bit of creative holiday fun, a story contest for the readers of The Chronicle. Write an ending to the setup we have provided. The winning submission will be published in print and online. Please make your scary story appropriate for readers of all ages. The fog was settling across Columbia Boulevard as we set out for the holiday festivities. Everybody in costume, we made our way towards downtown. The air had that smell it gets just
before an Oregon-style downpour, but the clouds just hung their without bursting. Wondering if the weather would hold up, we chattered about urban legends and the same old horror stories that always
surface at Halloween time. As the sun gave up its last trace of light, we suddenly realized our path strayed during the retelling of so many classic scary tales. We wandered down a quiet St. Helens
street and found ourselves staring up at that one house in the old neighborhood – you know the one, it’s kind of spooky looking no matter what time of year you see it. Somebody said as a
goof we should run up to the door of the house, give it a loud trick-ortreat knock and settle all the murmured rumors, the crazy legends we grew up hearing about the “haunted house of St.
Helens.” Somebody else said to be careful, it could be a trap, and who knows what might be waiting. I gathered my courage, took a deep breath and locked my focus on the front door…
Send us your ending by mailing it The Chronicle at 1805 Columbia Boulevard, St. Helens, Ore. or submit by email at cmann@countrymedia.net

Established in 2005, the Arts and Cultural Commission (ACC) is a City of St. Helens commission made up of community volunteers dedicated to improving the livability of St. Helens by encouraging the recognition of arts and culture. In the past five years alone, the ACC fundraised to design, fabricate and install artistic benches, bike racks, and cultural banners throughout the community. The members of the ACC also hosted numerous free craft workshops for children, a summer art show and annual trash can painting contests.
