Sweet Success: Dutch Bros. named Business of the Year

State Champ!

BY DON PATTERSON publisher@thechronicleonline.com

­­­­

Dutch Bros. Coffee was named Business of the Year at the South Columbia County Chamber of Commerce annual awards banquet held Feb. 24.

The annual event, which honors businesses and individuals who contribute to the vitality of the business community, was attended by many of the prominent dignitaries and business owners in the county.

Snow forced postponement of the event, originally scheduled for Feb. 6. That didn’t seem to dampen the enthusiasm displayed for the honorees, however.

“We are truly honored to receive this award,” said Kevin Murphy, owner and operator of the local Dutch Bros. franchises. “Our local community has supported us so much over the past six years.”

Murphy operates locations in St. Helens and Scappoose, employing about 20 baristas.

Several of his employees attended the event and accepted the award with Murphy.

According to the South County Chamber office, Murphy has given well over $95,000 to the community since the first Dutch Bros. opened in St. Helens in 2008. Some of the local causes he supports include the St. Helens Parent Teacher Organization, Columbia River Fire & Rescue, Columbia Humane Society, See DUTCH, Page A4

Judge’s seat a three-way contest

BY SHARI PHIEL news@thechronicleonline.com

In a normal election year, the race for circuit court judge doesn’t usually get much attention. But this year’s election cycle is seeing the race for Columbia County Circuit Court judge gain traction.

A position was created last year when longtime circuit court Judge Steven Reed

retired. Oregon Gov. John Kitzhaber appointed Judge Jean Marie Martwick to fill the rest of Reed’s term. In May, voters will head to the polls or send in their ballots to select one of three candidates for the full term.

Those candidates are attorneys Cathleen Callahan and Jason Heym and Judge Martwick as the incumbent.

Each week for the next three weeks The Chronicle will profile each of these candi-

dates. This week we begin with Cathleen Callahan.

Raised in Las Vegas, Callahan didn’t originally intend to pursue law. Instead, she made her career in the hospitality industry.

“After I graduated I went into the hotel business which everyone did. I was even a member of the culinary union, and I’m a vested member of the Teamsters,” said Callahan. “I went to college late in life.”

After working her way through school working countless graveyard shifts, she made the decision to pursue a law degree.

“I was accepted up here at Willamette College of Law. And I worked graveyard for another three years to get though that,” she said.

It was while she was working at the Circus, Circus casino in Las Vegas that she became interested in the law.

“We really didn’t have

much crime, and what we did have was usually handled by the casino. One of our clerks was helping a guy who reached up out of the blue and slapped her across the face. They arrested him and everybody did what they were supposed to do. But the front office management wasn’t going to pay her when she had to go to court,” she said. ­­­­

Former climbing gym centers around CrossFit

BY KYLE BOGGS sports@thechronicleonline.com

Nearly 60 people come through the front door of The Vault Fitness Center in Olde Towne St. Helens a few times of week, unsure of what lies ahead of them.

For the last two years, owners Chris and Meaghan McDonald have transformed The Vault from a rock climbing gym into one centered around CrossFit. The Vault still has a climbing wall, but one of the major renovations the McDonalds overtook when taking over the gym was removing another wall to create more open space in the former US Bank-building-turned-gym.

Now the McDonalds and a couple other coaches use that open space to instruct those 60 folks who attend one of the four CrossFit

classes given five days a week. There is also one class given on Saturdays.

The Vault has CrossFit Kids classes Monday through Thursday with times from 4-5:30 p.m., depending on children’s ages.

The goal of CrossFit, Chris McDonald explains, is to make everyday life easier for people.

“CrossFit was designed to keep people out of nursing homes,” he said.

While he’s only had The Vault for two years, McDonald opened his first CrossFit gym in Clackamas in 2008.

Since then he’s been instructing continuously. Both Chris and Meaghan conduct CrossFit seminars across the country and the globe. Chris has given seminars as far away as Singapore, Argentina and Japan.

weightlifting, gymnastic, cardiovascular and aerobic activities into unique workouts each day. One day, for example, the class may focus around rope climbs, squats and running. The next day may consist of jumping

The workouts vary day to day to create full-body workouts and keep the body guessing at what’s coming next.

In the last few years, CrossFit has gained popu­­­­

Refinery applies for air permit under DEQ scrutiny

BY SHARI PHIEL news@thechronicleonline.com

CLATSKANIE – Earlier this week, Oregon’s Department of Environmental Quality announced it will hold a public hearing for an air quality permit requested

by Columbia Pacific BioRefinery at Port Westward in Clatskanie. Cascade Kelly Holdings, now a wholly owned subsidiary of

Global Partners, applied for a new “Standard Air Contaminant Discharge Permit” related to its storage and transportation of crude oil and ethanol.

Although the DEQ approved a modification of the existing ethanol plant permit in June 2012 allowing the refinery to receive and transload up to 50 million gallons of crude oil per year, the agency says it did so because not only could

the request be performed using existing equipment and emission controls, it would result in “insignificant emissions and was considered an incidental activity.”

Since then, DEQ says the refinery has “significantly increased crude oil storage and loading” and now intends to receive and transload as much as 1,839,600,000 gallons per year.

“Under DEQ rules, the significant expansion of the crude oil storage and transloading operation established a new source of air contaminant emissions for which [Cascade Kelly] must obtain a new permit,” said the notice.

But Global Partners doesn’t agree. The company says it has been operating within state guidelines all along and that the necessary permits have been granted.

­­­­

If Global Partners is found to be not in compliance, it could face some hefty fines for each day it operated without the necessary permits.

“We believe that we have permits in place so as to conduct the operation that we are conducting today.

We believe that the process has begun with respect to the public comment with See BIO, Page A3

Zone 8 planting schedule

Spring Gardening

Plan ahead for the very best gardening results To get the most out of your vegetable garden, you need to do a little planning.

Knowing when to start your seeds and transplant them outdoors will help to maximize your harvest.

There are no hard rules for this, it is dependent on the climate for your particular area, as well as the weather at the time.

The Vegetable Garden Planting Calendar at left will help you plan if and

when your seeds should be started indoors, when to start or transplant your seeds/seedlings to the outdoors, and roughly when to expect to harvest your seeds. Each vegetable has a variety of types, each one with a slightly different growing season, and length.

In general, the information listed on your seed packets, will be more accurate, and should be followed if there is any discrepancy. The

chart below is intended to assist in scheduling garden events, as well as selecting complimentary garden vegetables for growing in your garden. For example, once the onions are harvested in the late summer, a quick growing cool weather crop such as lettuce, spinach, or beets could easily be grown where the onions once were.

This allows an additional set of vegetables to be grown from the same garden plot.

Garden care essentials Taking care of a vegetable garden can be very rewarding, but requires a considerable amount of time.

Weeds Weeds without a doubt will limit production in your garden. The easiest way to control weeds is to keep up with them and pull them or turn them into the garden soil before they develop seed and spread throughout your garden. They are easiest to pull when they are small or when the soil is moist.

Mulching Mulch helps to control weeds and also to retain moisture. Black plastic can be used as a mulch, and will actually absorb the sunlight and speed up the warming of the garden soil. Apply the black plastic in strips after your garden soil has been prepared for planting. You can use soil to

weigh down the edges and either cut slits in the plastic for the plants or use a bulb setter to cut holes in the plastic. Organic mulches also work well.

Common organic mulches are leaves, straw, compost, sawdust and grass clippings. If using grass clippings and leaves, be careful not to add weeds to the garden. Apply organic mulches 2-3 inches thick as they often reflect the sunlight due to their light color.

looks to be diseased, remove it from your garden after harvest and be sure not to keep any seeds from a diseased plant.

Do not crowd plants in the garden and be sure to stake up tall heavy vegetable plants.

Avoid watering your plants in the late afternoon, as wet plants are more susceptible to disease. When watered in the morning they will dry during the morning hours as they naturally do everyday.

Disease and Insect Control Vegetable plants are susceptible to a wide variety of pests and diseases, which left untouched will limit the production and quality of your harvest. Keep a close eye on your vegetable plants to be sure to spot problems as soon as they arise. A small number of insects can sometimes be manually removed or hosed off. If you see a plant that

Irrigation Vegetable plants require approximately 1 to 2 ½ inches of water per week depending on the plant and it’s size.

Vegetables require less water when they are small and more when they become larger.

During dry periods, be sure to irrigate with your garden hose.

It may be a good idea to place a rain gauge in your garden to help monitor the amount of water your plants are getting.

Bonamici files for re-election BEAVERTON — U.S. Rep. Suzanne Bonamici (D-Ore) has filed her candidacy for reelection to the U.S. Congress. A Washington County Democrat, Bonamici is currently serving her first full term.

“It’s been an honor to serve the constituents of the First Congressional District over the last two years.

There is a lot of work still to be done, and I am asking for support today so I can continue my work for Oregonians,” said Bonamici.

Bonamici is seeking the

A3

support of voters across Oregon’s First Congressional District, which includes Washington, Suzanne Bonamici Yamhill, Columbia, and Clatsop counties and parts of Multnomah County.

“I will continue my work to build the economy

and stand up for seniors, veterans, working families, and those who are still seeking employment.

My work will continue on behalf of LGBT equality and women who do not earn equal pay,” she said.

“I am focused on education from early childhood through higher education, and I’m working to make college more accessible and affordable.”

Bonamici has filed her candidacy as a Democrat with the Oregon Secretary of State.

JUDGE: Contest heats up for circuit court seat From PAGE A1

As shop steward for the union, Callahan helped the clerk get her pay.

“It was literally at that moment that I said, ‘Hmm… I guess I’ll go to law school,” she remembered.

In 2000, Callahan took and passed the bar and hung up a shingle to open her practice. After a couple of years, she decided to join a small firm with another lawyer in Clatskanie. She stayed in practice there for nine years before setting up shop in Olde Towne St. Helens.

“When you’re in a rural community like this you

learn everything.

We call it ‘door law,’ whatever walks in the door, is what you know, from real Cathleen Callahan estate transactions to people buying businesses, multi-generational family relations,” she said.

Callahan was also the city prosecutor for the City of Clatskanie. She says covering all those areas, along with sitting on both sides of

the aisle makes her a great choice for the bench.

And while she says the lawyers and court system in Columbia County are there to help people work through the system successfully, she does want to see criminals in jail. With the jail closure looming, Callahan recognizes the problems this will create for the courts.

“I’m in favor of the levy.

I think we need a jail. It is the most effective tool we have. How we get there I don’t know,” she adds.

Ballots for the May 20 elections will be mailed to voters in April. Look for more in next week’s Chronicle.

BIO: Company says refinery is operating within bounds of permits From PAGE A1 regards to the draft air permit that began last Friday are in place and look forward to continuing the process and continuing dialogue with ODEQ,” said Ed Faneuil, executive vice president and general counsel for Global.

Currently, Global Partners – under its agreement with the Port of St. Helens – is permitted to store and transload around 860 million gallon a year (or 24 trains per month). To reach the 38 trains per month cap set by the Port of St. Helens (equivalent to 1.36 billion gallons a year), significant rail improvements would

RECYCLE

have to be completed.

“I do not believe that we are operating outside the bounds of any permits that we have in place at that facility,” Faneuil added. “The permit today allows for the transloading of crude oil and the manufacture of ethanol.

Global’s operations there have not exceeded those air emission limits. We respectfully disagree with ODEQ with respect to their assertion that there is a 50 million gallon limit in the existing permit.”

According to Global, the company applied for a separate emission application to cover the transloading operations to the DEQ

last August.

The Fortune 500 company, based in Waltham, Mass., has been shipping crude oil to its facility at Port Westward since shortly after purchasing it in January 2013 for $95 million.

The company has said it plans to invest another $50$70 million for further expansion and improvements, including the production of ethanol.

Crude oil shipments by rail, like those coming into Columbia Pacific Bio-Refinery, have come under fire since several high profile accidents, including one in Lac-Megantic, Quebec in Canada that killed 47

people. Last week, the U.S. Department of Transportation issued an emergency order calling for all crude oil shipments originating out of the Bakken oil fields in North Dakota to be tested by the shippers to ensure proper classification while also prohibiting the transportation of crude oil in the

lowest-strength packing group. The emergency order also required certain crude oil shipments to use more robust tank cars. Lower risk designations for crude oil shipments will not be accepted until further notice.

The DEQ public hearing will be held on Thursday, April 3 beginning at

6 p.m. in the Clatskanie High School auditorium, 471 Bel Air Drive. From 6–7:30 p.m. there will be an information session and questions and answers; from 7:30–9:30 p.m. pre-registered comments (sign up in advance online) and walk-in comments will be hear from 6–9:30 p.m.

everyday person. But, McDonald says, that is not the case.

“We have 70-year-olds participating in our regular classes. It’s a universally scalable program. Everyone can work to their own tolerances,” he said.

So where someone who has been consistently working out for two years may be deadlifting 350 pounds during a workout, a newcomer could do the exact same workout scaled down to 45 pounds.

Class sizes at The Vault range anywhere from four to 15 people at a time. Over the course of an hour-long

class, that leaves plenty of time for one-on-one instruction to keep exercisers using proper lifting techniques.

Because such a wide variety of lifts and exercise are used, people of all different skill and experience levels regularly need those teaching points.

“CrossFit hasn’t created anything, just stolen from different communities: powerlifting, Olympic lifting, gymnastics. They’re all very skilled things,” McDonald said. “Here we give you an actual coach. It’s like a personal trainer but more affordable.”

For people on the fence about whether they want to give the program a try, The

Vault offers free classes – either regular or CrossFit Kids – for a week to newcomers.

In the future, McDonald said he anticipates adding a beginner class to introduce CrossFit. In addition to the regular classes, the gym has a regular membership that allows people to come in and work out or climb on their own any time from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Friday. It is also the practice location for Vault Elite Cheerleading, which includes a lot of gymnastics.

Volunteers will be on hand to fill customers’ orders and answer questions related to each species.

Over 15,000 bare root and potted seedling will be available. Species include: dawn redwood, quaking aspen, giant sequoia, juneberry, Pacific madrone, Oregon ash, coastal redwood, grand fir, red elderberry, incense cedar, red Japanese maple, Noble fir, eastern redbud, ponderosa pine, sugar maple, western red cedar,

Chinese dogwood, “Elite” Douglas fir, and flowering red currant. All are available individually and some in bag quantities. Prices start at $1 each. Arrive early for the best selections.

For information call Paul Nys at 503-556-8800 or Mark at 503-369-9592.

Over 12,000 “Elite” Douglas fir are expected to be on hand, a significant increase from 2013’s sale.

Fir seedlings have been difficult to acquire due to the increase in harvests this past year.

The funds from the seedling sale support the association’s educational programs. One of these programs pays the admission fees for all Columbia

County fifth-graders to attend the World Forestry Center in Portland. Oregon Forest Resource Institute pays all of the transportation costs so there is no cost to the school districts.

Another program provides annual grants to teachers in our county. One teacher is using their grant to start a horticulture class in St. Helens and another supports the forestry class in the Clatskanie School District.

Letters Save what’s left The sunny oak meadows around St. Helens used to be covered in wildflowers, and here and there you can still glimpse camas blooming in the spring: bright blue lilies.

Lewis and Clark admired their beauty, and Native Americans dug up the bulbs for a tasty side dish.

To maintain meadows, sometimes Indians would set fires, which fertilized the soil and held back the fir forests.

This diversity of plants and habitats was nurtured by the First People for thousands of years.

Today, we have the opposite attitude: camas aren’t safe anywhere. They exist in a few St. Helens area parks, remnant meadows slated for development, in tiny patches in yards, at the middle school, and along a few roads. Unfortunately they are not safe even in local parks: often mowed, torn out, or covered over with amenities. The same fate meets numerous other wildflowers.

The one place set aside for them, the Nob Hill Preserve in olde towne, is so small and close to homes that it is being overrun with yard weeds. Just this week, a few folks were gathering up camas bulbs carelessly exposed by the deep ruts from a truck on city land next to a road.

The single surveyor’s stick there probably means all the camas in this location are doomed: thousands of bulbs on a tiny plot. Little by little what’s left is eliminated.

Most people think that wildflowers grow in the

Speedbump

mountains, and they are right. What they don’t know is that wildflowers were once just as common in lowland meadows and forests. People have simply destroyed most of them.

I suggest that the city/ county make a greater effort to save what’s left of the native wildflowers in our area. I encourage private landowners to do the same.

Plant and protect native species. Not just because many are beautiful but because we are creating a crisis for the survival of bees needed to pollinate crops. Our lack of safeguarding once abundant wildflowers is a big part of the problem.

Lona Pierce, Warren Solutions welcomed Columbia County’s current jail problem is controversial and profound.

Apparently – even though the additional levy amounts to nothing greater than an average tank of gas for the family truck – I am aware some folks aren’t able to afford even that. These are still tough times, I get it. But unless you are weak on crime and/or harbor a soft spot for criminals, you too will agree we absolutely need a functioning jail like any other legitimate community. After all, if America didn’t feel the need to incarcerate criminals, we would see prisoners being released from jails and prisons being shut down all across the country every day to save money.

I view issues pragmatically, without emotion. First,

we must block out the name callers and screamers who spend their days parading around from meeting to meeting aroused by the sound of their own voice.

You know who I mean. They make no articulate points, they bring no solutions to the table, they offer no help.

They are making politics dysfunctional and their foul-mouthed rhetoric is the reason most folks are sick of the whole process.

Secondly, let’s include everyone – for or against the levy – willing to come forward and help solve the problem in a civil manner.

Conservative, moderate or liberal folks are welcome to have a seat at the table, as long as they understand this debate will remain respectful. In order to have your ideas considered, you must consider theirs.

Thirdly, linking this issue to the past is both irrelevant and does not solve this problem.

Friends and neighbors, if we miss this one, it will drive up our homeowner’s insurance, car insurance, endanger our children, allow drunk drivers to own the streets, discourage future business, hurt current business, brand Columbia County as lowly, abhorrent losers, and more.

If you cast this warning off as a “scare tactic,” then you aren’t paying attention. I am open-minded and willing to entertain all concepts that arrive at the solution; as long as we get there. I challenge you to join me.

Viewpoint Oil trains, salmon, and Deadheads: management without stewardship

BY DANNER CHRISTENSEN Founder, Envision Columbia County

A few years ago, fisheries and forestry managers pursued an aggressive campaign to clear logs and debris from Northwest streams and rivers. The goal was to “improve” the efficiency of the migratory wild salmon “highway.” It viewed the declining salmon numbers as a “factory process” problem. Tinker with the steps in the production line, raise enormous numbers of fish in fish factories (hatcheries), dump them in streams and rivers and Presto!, problem solved.

Of course, the folly of cleaning streams of logs and debris destroyed the very environment the salmon needed to survive and flourish. Local author and career salmon biologist Jim Lichatowich, in his beautifully written book “Salmon, Place and People,” calls this misguided activity “Man-

agement without Stewardship”.

What is missing, he argues persuasively, is the lack of understanding of, or willful ignorance of, what the salmon actually need to thrive. This mindset ignores the salmon’s habitat, its interactions within its complex biological web, and the larger environmental and cultural impacts if it becomes extinct. In a certain sense, it ignores the salmon’s “community,” and fails to exercise stewardship over it.

In Columbia County active stewardship would display an understanding and appreciation of our complex community. It would give equal weight to maintaining our community safety, curtailing pollution of all kinds, protecting livability, and sustaining the natural world where the community lives. Yes, it also means job creation and growth, but not just any industry, any job, at any cost.

In the past I’ve seen very little evidence that the Columbia County and Port of St. Helens (POSH) commissioners have exercised this broader responsibility of community stewardship beyond their narrow management goals. Particularly at POSH meetings, more than one citizen has come away feeling that their stewardship questions and concerns have been met with an attitude of dismissive condescension, bordering on arrogance, from some commissioners and their hired staff.

One thousand, four hundred and twenty nine: that number represents the number of children and young people at Scappoose High School, middle school and Grant Watts Elementary school. This doesn’t even count the hundreds of adults who work in or visit these three schools every day. Two of these schools are very close together and none sits more than a block from the railroad tracks.

On Nov. 13, 2013, the POSH commissioners voted unanimously to allow increasing the number of long oil trains in our county to 38 per month by 2015. The approval was given despite widely known and easily discovered information about the explosive nature of Bakken crude oil, and the DOT-111 oil tankers that carry it. Those tanker cars are susceptible to puncture, rupture, and have easily damaged valves. Either the commissioners were not aware of these dangers before their decision, or they knew and proceeded anyway. Both show a frightening lack of stewardship for our community in the pursuit of their narrowly focused management goals.

To give credit where it’s due, the county commissioners decided to exclude coal from their approval for the zone change at Port Westward. I would be more inclined to see it as an act of true community stewardship,

Columbia Humane Society

ing citizens’ stewardship concerns about the trains, she has publicly stated that citizens who don’t like it should just move. Can any voter seriously expect her to wield her power for the stewardship of the entire community?

We the people of Columbia County must not allow our complex community to be damaged by management without stewardship, as happened to the Pacific wild salmon. We have a right and responsibility to insist that our elected officials display action, evidence and transparency in their stewardship of this community that we love, and not just present reassuring platitudes and press releases.

I for one will not be moving as suggested. Along with ever increasing numbers of community voters, I will stay and fight for meaningful stewardship of this home that I love. We invite all of our elected officials to join us.

if the same stroke of the pen did not doom over 800 acres of valuable farmland to ultimate destruction. At the recent POSH public meeting with Portland & Western railroad representatives, some commissioners pressed hard for information about P&W insurance coverage for injury, property damage, and environmental destruction should an accident occur in our community. I hope they keep it up, as these are the questions responsible stewards of the community must insist be answered.

Finally, I cannot seem to get the image of the public display of rotting cattle heads out of my brain. To me, a POSH commissioner allowing this display on her property reveals either an inability or unwillingness to practice stewardship in her own neighborhood. It displays her failure to take her share of responsibility for the harmony, esthetics, environment and safety on her own street. Address-

the

Scappoose business hit with $30,000 in DEQ fines The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality issued penalties totaling a combined $30,400 in connection with the pumping of more than 6,500 gallons of an oil/water mix from an oil change and car wash business in Scappoose into a storm drain which discharged into Jackson Creek. The incident, which occurred in October 2012, created an oily sheen on Jackson Creek, which leads to the Columbia Slough.

DEQ issued a $16,000 penalty to Patrick Edmund Slevin, doing business as PlumbCrazy, and a $14,400 penalty to Automobilia Inc., which owns and operates the express lube and car wash facility, where the incident occurred at 51425 SW Joe’s Drive.

The violation occurred

on Oct. 17, 2012, when the basement of the express lube facility filled with an oil and water mix after a sump pump failed. Automobilia Inc. hired Patrick Slevin and directed its employees and then Slevin to pump the oil/water mix directly into a nearby parking lot storm drain, using a hose and a larger pump, which Slevin provided. The basement contained approximately 6,560 gallons of the oil and water mix, which was eight inches deep. All of the mixture from the basement was pumped into the storm drain, and some of the oily water reached Jackson Creek, which was less than a mile from the drain.

DEQ issued the penalties because releasing oil into state waters is a serious violation of Oregon envi-

ronmental law. Oil released into creeks, rivers and other water bodies can seriously damage aquatic life and ecosystems, and can reduce the safety of public waters for public use. In issuing the penalties to both parties, DEQ noted its concern because both Automobilia Inc. and Slevin intentionally caused the release.

DEQ issued a $16,000 penalty to Slevin for releasing oil into state waters, and issued Automobilia Inc. a $14,400 penalty for the same violation. In determining the penalty amount for Automobilia, DEQ took into account the company’s effort to pay for subsequent cleanup work at the site.

Both penalty recipients faced criminal charges in Columbia County regarding this incident. Automobilia

Inc. and its owner, Richard Brett Day, pleaded guilty to one misdemeanor count each of failing to report a spill or release of oil. Slevin went to trial and was convicted one count of unlawful water pollution in the second degree, a misdemeanor.

Automobilia Inc. paid its DEQ penalty in full Feb. 27. Slevin will also have an opportunity to pay or appeal his penalty.

DEQ enforces Oregon environmental laws to protect people’s health and to keep our region’s air, land, and water clean and healthy. These compliance and enforcement efforts also help level the playing field by deterring violators who might otherwise have an unfair business advantage over their environmentally compliant competitors.

“Father forgive them for they know not what they do.”

C B onsider this: The very first recorded words from the mouth of Jesus on the cross are words of forgiveness, “Father, forgive them for they know not what they do.” Let us consider these words as we enter the Lenten season. Jesus has been arrested and given a mock trial enduring for many hours. During these “proceedings, Jesus is mocked, spit upon, ridiculed, whipped bloody, thorns, not merely placed on His sacred head gently, but pressed down to inflict even more pain. His closest friends and disciples desert Him when the threat of association with Jesus might also be their fate. But the torture is just beginning. Jesus is now forced to carry His own cross, the fate of one convicted of a capital crime.

“G

olgotha, Calvary, the Place of the Skull,” these are all words familiar to us, but this is the holy place where the greatest event in human history would transpire. Here Jesus is placed on a cross, not merely lashed to the wood, but nailed to the cross as so much inanimate refuse not worthy of feelings. Now, He is stripped naked, mocked and left to die the agonizing and horrible death of a criminal. In the midst of all this, the first words out of our Savior’s mouth are not words of hate, not words of revenge, not words of condemnation, but words of eternal life: “Father, forgive them for they know not what they do.” Forgiveness flows from the cross, so how fitting it is that Jesus’ first word from the cross is a word of forgiveness. But who are the “them?”

Is it just those who nailed Him to the cross? Is it aimed at the leadership of the Jews only? Is it for the soldiers who stood guard so that no one would take Jesus down from the Roman instrument of torture? Is it for the disciples that deserted Him at the most critical moment of His ministry? Yes, all of these and more. You see, that word from the cross is a word of universal forgiveness. By praying for the forgiveness of all those responsible for his crucifixion, Jesus anticipates in His words what is about to happen with His death: atonement for the sins of the entire world who would remain under God’s horrible wrath if not for His death.

ut might we be included in this word of our Savior?

Did we have anything to do with the horrible crucifixion of Christ? Ask yourself these questions:

• Do you think God doesn’t see what you do or care about your sins?

• Do you take God’s grace for granted?

• Do you feel secure because of your life, health or possessions?

• Are you anxious about anything?

• Are you afraid of anything or anyone but God? • Do you boast in anything other than the Crucified Lord?

• Do you doubt God’s Word or your Christian creeds?

• Do you fail to confess the Lord with your mouth or in your actions?

I

f we are honest with ourselves, we have to admit to deserting our Lord as much as the disciples. And if you must admit to any of these questions in the positive, you crucified Jesus just as surely as those around Jesus on that fateful day. Yet, Jesus’ first words on the cross are the words of our Great High Priest who prays for the forgiveness of all sinners. That means you. Notice that Jesus does not pray, “Father, it if be Thy will.” Rather, Jesus asks unconditionally. Your forgiveness is not conditioned on how well you have kept the Commandments! Your forgiveness is not conditioned on the degree of your faith.

There is only one condition set by God. Jesus’ blood, His suffering of hell, His death is the condition upon which our forgiveness is based! That condition is fulfilled on the cross. So it is to you that Jesus now speaks, “Father, forgive them for they know not what they do.”

OSP seeking witnesses in Highway 30 crash Oregon State Police is asking for the public’s help to identify the driver of a vehicle that fled the scene of a two-vehicle serious injury traffic crash Friday night on U.S. Highway 30 about eight miles east of Astoria.

According to OSP Lt. Andrew Merila, preliminary information indicates a 2002 Dodge Neon with three occupants was traveling on Hwy. 30 near milepost 88 at approximately 9:20 p.m. when a gray 1996 Honda Passport sport utility vehicle with Oregon license plates crossed the center line and collided head-on with the Dodge Neon.

The driver of the Honda Passport fled the scene on foot. Investigating troopers think that based upon crash damage the driver may have been injured. Information also indicates traffic was heavy at the time of the crash and witnesses may have not spoken to investigating troopers or may

have picked up the driver and were unaware of the person’s direct involvement in the crash. Troopers don’t know if the driver was male or female.

The Dodge’s driver, Abraham P. Korpoh, 22, was transported by LifeFlight to Legacy Emanuel Medical Center with critical injuries. Two female passengers in the Dodge were transported by Medix ambulance with non-lifethreatening injuries to Columbia Memorial Hospital in Astoria. They are identified as Olivia Tokstad, 21, from Dundee, and Kamah P. Hartwell 22, from southeast Portland.

The highway was closed for an hour before being opened to one lane.

Investigators would like to speak with any witnesses to the crash or who may have arrived on scene shortly after the crash happened but haven’t spoken to OSP are asked to call OSP at 800-452-7888.

Cascade is clutch at FT line

Indians reach the ‘third season’

by kyle boggs sports@thechronicleonline.com

In close games, free-throw shooting takes on added value. During a play-in game on March 1, free throws were the most valuable weapon in the Cascade Cougars’ arsenal.

Cascade (14-9, 6-4) made 25 of 26 attempts at the line in the fourth quarter to hold on for a 79-72 win over the visiting Scappoose Indians (13-13, 5-5). The loss ends the Indians’ season.

For the game the Cougars were 39-of-42 at the line – a staggering 92.9 percent. For sake of comparison, Dirk Nowitzki leads the NBA in free-throw percentage at 91.4 percent.

“We fouled them at the rim multiple times, but they did a great job of knocking down free throws,” said Scappoose coach Rahim Tufts. “Gotta give them credit for getting the ball to [6-4 center Josh Delamarter] in areas where he could operate and gotta give them credit for knocking down 39 free throws.”

Delamarter had a gamehigh 34 points – 16 of them coming at the line.

The Indians countered as best they could with their 1-2 punch of senior Mitch Davis and junior Chase Johnson.

The duo combined for 41 points, with Davis scoring 22 and Johnson scoring 19.

Davis made a 3-pointer with seconds left in the third period that made it a twopoint game. Prior to that, the Indians had trailed by as many as 17 in the quarter.

“I was really happy with how we competed, how we came back after down 17 and with how much passion we played with,” Tufts said.

During the fourth quarter, the teams traded baskets.

“We did a great job of scoring and hitting big shots, we just couldn’t string together a few stops in a row,” Tufts said.

Senior Taylor Loss finished the game in double digits with 11 points and senior Will Sprute added eight – five of them coming at the end of the first half.

kyle boggs / The Chronicle An official raises Scappoose senior Isaiah Goodrich’s arm after Goodrich won the 2014 4A 182-pound state title.

Scappoose’s Goodrich wins 2014 4A state championship by kyle boggs sports@thechronicleonline.com

Once the official’s hand hit the mat, the look of focus finally fell off the face of Isaiah Goodrich. In its place came a combination of relief, excitement and pride.

Throughout the first two days of the 2014 OSAA 4A Wrestling State Championships, the Scappoose High School senior wore a look of determination everywhere he went inside Portland’s Memorial Coliseum. That drive paid off with the ultimate reward: A state championship.

Goodrich pinned Crook County junior Gunnar Robirts 59 seconds into the third round of the championship bout. When the official signaled the win, a smile finally replaced the focused scowl on Goodrich’s face as the referee raised his arm. Goodrich then shook hands with Robirts, the Crook County coaches, signed his bout card and shared an embrace with his head coach Jim Jones.

“I’m extremely happy for him, especially the way he won. It was an emotional match. Obviously he’s pretty ecstatic about it,” Jones said

afterward.

Early on in the match, the Goodrich supporters that surrounded Mat Four had cause for concern. Robirts caught Goodrich in a cradle, scoring two points for a takedown and three for a near fall. Goodrich had spotted the No. 1 seed in the state a 5-0 lead in the match’s opening period. But as he has done throughout his four years at SHS, the 182 pounder kept working. He was eventually able to work his way off his back and onto his feet, then tie the match at 7-7.

“I felt in control when I was on my feet being able to move around freely,” Goodrich said. “That’s where I felt most comfortable was on my feet getting takedowns. When I caught him, that felt awesome.”

The state title caps a four-year run for Goodrich that includes two district titles and three trips to the state tournament. As a sophomore, he went 1-2 at state. Last year he placed fifth, which he said was lower than he anticipated. A few days prior to the 2014 tournament, Goodrich said he entered this season with the goal of winning a state title. He used the experience from that fifth-place finish to form a game plan going into this year.

“Don’t let the big crowd get in your head, know the layout of the arena… Do what you’re there to do,” he explained.

With Robirts seeded first entering the title match and Goodrich seeded third, it would seem the pressure was on the Crook County Cowboy. But with his dad at the scorer’s table, his older brother Gabe shouting encouragement from just behind the coach’s corner and other family members

As the coaches filed out of the of the girls basketball locker room at Scappoose High School on Feb. 25, a series of cheers erupted inside of it.

“I reminded the girls yesterday that the last time a girls basketball team from this school went to the playoffs was 2007, so they’re enjoying that moment right now,” Scappoose coach David Spirlin said after the game.

Behind a huge performance from freshman Alyssa Spang, the Indians (12-13, 5-5) beat the Astoria Fishermen (9-17, 4-6) 53-47 in a Cowapa League playoff game.

That earned the Indians a trip to the 4A play-in round.

Scappoose met Gladstone (18-7, 8-2) in the play-in game. The Gladiators topped the Indians, 39-24.

Entering his first year as coach, Spirlin broke the season into three parts: Nonleague, league and postseason. He preached the whole year that the team needed to improve over the course of the first two ‘seasons,’ as he calls them, to reach the third season – the playoffs.

Spang came off the bench against Astoria and scored a game-high 18 points on an array of relentless drives to the basket that resulted in either a made shot or a trip to the free-throw line. Spang did more than just score – she added six rebounds, four assists and four steals. That stat line was a big reason the Indians were able to celebrate.

After the game, Spang summed up the atmosphere inside the SHS locker room.

“It was really energetic. We were all just really happy. To be here from seven years – it was really great,” she said.

The development of Spang and other underclassmen helped the team return to the postseason. In addition to Spang’s outing, the Indians got nine points See indians, Page A16

Terry takes 5th at state meet by kyle boggs sports@thechronicleonline.com

PORTLAND — All six St. Helens wrestlers who qualified for the 2014 OSAA 5A Wrestling State Championships won at least one match at the tournament.

Freshman Myles Terry finished fifth to lead the charge.

Terry, the team’s 152 pounder, was the only place-winner. He won the fifth-place match with a 7-0 decision.

Like any competitor who doesn’t finish atop his bracket, Terry said afterward that he would have liked to finish higher in the standings.

He did, however, acknowledge his accomplishment.

“I would have liked to have done better, but fifth is good,” Terry said.

The freshman said his biggest takeaway from his first trip to the high school state championships was learning that he needs to grow stronger.

“There are some big guys at 152 and I’m kind of small.

So I definitely gotta get stronger,” Terry said.

Two other freshmen finished the tournament 1-2.

Tyler Cooper dropped his first match in the 106-pound bracket. He pinned his first opponent in the consolation bracket, then dropped a 3-0

At 113 pounds, Haidon Allen started the tournament with a 12-4 loss. He followed that with a 3-0 win and was eliminated with a 7-2 loss.

“For taking six guys and everyone winning a match, I couldn’t be happier. We had some freshmen go to state, lose their first match and then come back and get a win,” said St. Helens coach J.R. Jackson.

Sophomore Michael Bowen had one of the quickest

wins on the opening day. In the first match at 126 pounds, Bowen won by fall in just 37 seconds. Later on that day, however, Bowen suffered a concussion and was pinned in the first round. Because of the injury, he was unable to continue competing.

Eight top-five finishes earn Scappoose a trophy by kyle boggs sports@thechronicleonline.com

PORTLAND — Eight top-five finishes – including one state title – led the Scappoose Indians to a third-place finish at the 2014 OSAA 4A Wrestling State Championships.

Senior Isaiah Goodrich won the 182-pound title (see story on Page A13 for more information) to lead the way for the Tribe.

He was one of three SHS wrestlers to reach the finals on Saturday night. Juniors Ben Gadbois and Devin Ray both came away with second-place finishes in their weight classes.

Gadbois entered the tournament unseeded in the 152-pound bracket. He worked his way into the championship match with a 4-3 win, a 3-2 win and a 3-1 overtime win. In the finals, he was up against three-time state champion Tyler Berger of Crook County. Berger became the only wrestler at the 2014 tournament to win a fourth title.

Heading into the final match, Gadbois knew about Berger’s accomplishments.

“It was just like, ‘I got nothing to lose and he’s got everything to lose,’” Gadbois said. “Try to go big, catch him in something.”

Gadbois said he exceeded his own goals and expectations by reaching the finals.

“I liked having them there and watching right there – my uncle, my best friend’s mom. It kinda added a little bit more pressure to win too,” Goodrich said. “I don’t know – it was good to have them there.”

Goodrich now joins Gabe in the rank of 4A state champions. Gabe won the 119-pound division in 2010.

Isaiah entered high school the following year and has been a fixture in the SHS mat room ever since. On March 1, that dedication paid off.

The final game of the year was microcosmic of the whole season for the St. Helens Lions: build an early lead only to see it evaporate in the fourth quarter.

On Feb. 28, the Lions (419, 2-12) started the game on fire from the field and built a double-digit first-quarter lead against the visiting Parkrose Broncos (6-17, 6-8).

A few nights prior, St. Helens struggled to a 68-30 loss against the No. 10 Sandy Pioneers (19-5, 10-4).

On Senior Night against the Broncos, the Lions started the game crisp offensively. St. Helens assisted on eight of its nine first-quarter field goals – four of those baskets coming from behind the arc. That helped the Lions take a 22-11 lead at the end of the opening period.

The Broncos trimmed their deficit in the third quarter as the Lions’ shooting cooled down. The Lions made 8-of-10 3-point shots in the first half. After halftime, the Lions were 2-for-8.

SHS: finishes in third in the Cowapa

From PAGE A13 Looking back at the season, Tufts said he was proud of the way this group shook off the three-game losing streak that opened the year and how far the team has come since then.

“We became a completely different team on both sides of the ball. We had a great time coaching these kids and I’m so proud of how they improved, how they stayed positive during times of frustration and how they embodied ‘One Team,’” Tufts said.

Scappoose reached the play-in round by beating the Seaside Seagulls (12-12, 5-5) in a Cowapa League playoff game on Feb. 25.

The Indians held the Seagulls’ bench scoreless in the victory.

“On defense when we asked guys to do something, they executed better than we have all year,” Tufts said.

“There was a tremendous amount of focus. You could see it in our eyes – we were dialed in.”

In addition to the tough defense, Tufts said his team limited the Seagulls to only a handful of offensive rebounds.

“We did a great job boxing out. All five guys were going and finding a body,” he said.

Johnson led Scappoose offensively with 20 points.

He was 8-for-8 from the free-throw line.

The Tribe held a 17-11 lead at the break.

“At half it felt like we were up a lot more because we were just controlling the game,” Tufts said.

When the Indians had the ball, they were in no rush to get shots up.

“We were really patient.

We talked about be methodical. On film we saw some weaknesses that we talked about, and we exposed them after reversing the ball,” Tufts said.

Loss, Davis and senior Tracy Scruggs all scored seven points. Davis added 11 rebounds and six assists.

Lions wrap up season

From PAGE A13

The 2013-14 basketball season came to an end for the St. Helens Lions (1-21, 1-13) on Feb. 28 with a 5740 loss to the Parkrose Broncos (1-20, 1-13). Earlier in the week, St. Helens lost to Sandy (12-11, 7-7) 51-30.

Senior Lucy Kyle-Milward led the team in scoring at home against Sandy on Feb. 25, finishing the game with eight points. Senior Nicole Harcourt scored seven on the team’s Senior Night.

At Parkrose in the final game of the season, junior Rianne Tupper had a team-high 10 points and KyleMilward scored seven.

Freshman Maggie Cochrane pulled down 11 rebounds against the Broncos.

The Lions finished the season with just one win, against the same Broncos squad. Despite the team’s win-loss record to finish the season, head coach Billy McKinney believes the future is bright in the program.

At many points throughout the season, St. Helens had five freshmen or sophomores on the court at any given time. McKinney said many of those underclassmen are dedicated to improving and plan on playing a lot of basketball during the offseason.

from junior Sara Tinning and timely contributions from sophomore Kendal Bailey. Those younger players complemented the performances from seniors Lacey Updike (nine points), Abby Kessi (five points and eight rebounds) and Jenny Vardanega (four points and five rebounds).

“I tell the girls all the time I don’t care what grade you’re in. When the ball goes in the hoop and you play good defense, grades don’t matter. I told Alyssa yesterday, ‘You’re not a freshman anymore. You’ve played a whole season.’ She’s seasoned enough to know to not make freshman mistakes any more,” Spirlin said.

The last time a Scappoose team reached the playoffs was 2007, when the Indians finished fourth in the state tournament.

The Gladiators’ defense kept the Indians in check offensively from the start of the play-in KYLE BOGGS / The Chronicle game. Kessi led the Tribe with 12 points in Scappoose junior Sara Tinning goes up for a lay-in the defeat. last week against Astoria.
