ST. HELENS — After seven years on the bench, Jenefer Grant is campaigning for re-election as Columbia County’s circuit court judge, position #3. Following Judge Berkeley Smith’s retirement, Gov. Ted Kulongoski appointed her to circuit court judge in 2007. “Getting the call you’re being apJenefer Grant pointed is like being invited to the prom by a boy you like and never thought would ask you,” says Grant. “It’s like walking on air.” Born in Salem, Grant attended school in Portland and earned her bachelor’s degree from Portland State University in 1988. In 1992, she earned her doctorate in law with honors from George Washington National Law Center, where she completed summer internships with the Department of Justice and the Environmental Protection Agency. She became a member of the bar in 1992 and moved to Columbia County in 1995. For 12 years, she worked as an attorney in private practice, primarily handling criminal, juvenile and domestic relations cases. Grant says that experience gave her a solid background for her current position, as these types of cases are 90 percent of what she been presented with while serving as circuit court judge. Grant is currently serving her second term as presiding judge and presides over the Truancy Court and Adult Drug Court. Since sitting on the bench, Grant says she has developed a reputation of fairness. “This job in particular

by the Oregon Department of Human Services. The new addition was not only a surprise to neighbors in the development, but to city officials, as well. Harold Cubbedge, executive director of Iron Tribe, addressed the crowded room and explained that the orga-

School is more than just horsin’ around BY AMANDA FRINK news@thechronicleonline.com
WARREN — A local farm is teaching kids and adults how to saddle up some strength, take the reins of their patience and trot their way to confidence as part of the horse handling lessons offered at Sande School of Horsemanship. A non-profit organization led by longtime riding instructors Doug and Marlene Sande, the facility provides horsemanship lessons for all ages and abilities. The Sandes have trained horses and taught riding lessons for over 30 years. Riding instructor Kassi Euwer says the facility currently serves 75 students per month. Every student experience varies, as each lesson is customized to meet each student’s goals. The instructors say equestrian activities foster students’ critical thinking skills, patience and determination to conquer challenges, which usually results in developing their own coping mechanisms that are useful in other areas of life, as well. Students typically experience higher self-esteem, better communication skills, greater sense of responsibility, better leadership skills, and a sense of empowerment. Students also reap physical benefits, as horse riding can improve coordination; strengthen a rider’s core; improve posture and balance; and increase flexibility from See HORSIN’, Page A2

Automotive chop shop busted in St. Helens A phone call from a curious neighbor and persistent police work led investigators to a chop shop in St. Helens and the recovery of a stolen vehicle on April 16. Sunday, April 13 police received a report of a stolen vehicle in Rainier. A resident reported that a blue Honda had been taken from the
driveway of his residence on West B Street. On Monday, St. Helens police officers responded to a report of suspicious activity including blue smoke coming from the garage at 454 S. 9th Street in St. Helens. When officers investigated, the homeowner refused the allow the officers inside.
Wednesday morning, a man contacted the St. Helens Police and reported that he was going to haul scrap metal, including car parts, away from the residence at 454 S. 9th Street. He was concerned that the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) on one of the body panels was obliterated. Officers inquired further
and determined that this was in fact the stolen car from Rainier and that the blue smoke observed just two days earlier was caused by the literal chopping of the car into pieces. Armed with a search warrant, officers returned to the residence Wednesday afternoon and forced their way
inside. They discovered the engine, seats and many other pieces of the stolen Honda. The homeowners, Jason E. Thackery 36, and Alicia M. Thackery, 35, were arrested and lodged in the Columbia County Jail. Charges include unlawful use of a motor ve

Area voters split on upcoming jail funding levy BY AMANDA FRINK news@thechronicleonline.com
COLUMBIA COUNTY — As Election Day approaches, some voters are still in the process of gathering information to make an informed decision, and others feel they have done their homework and know how they will cast their ballots. But when it comes to Measure 5-238, those who are in favor of the jail levy feel that those who are opposing it are doing so for the wrong reasons or based on misinformation. Susan Conn, a volunteer with grassroots group Keep Prisoners in Jail, said she has heard several reasons from voters as to why they plan to vote “no” on 5-238. Conn stated that the most common reason from voters who are opposing the measure is because they feel that
the jail shouldn’t have been built so large to begin with. The Chronicle’s facebook page welcomed readers to share their thoughts on the jail levy; the responses provided some additional insight as to why some voters are in opposition to 5-238. Christopher Jon Östling told the Chronicle that he plans to vote “no.” “We have never needed and never will need a jail that holds that many inmates,” he said. “The old jail held 36 inmates and the most Columbia County inmates they have had at one time is 44 since building that monstrosity!” According to County Commissioner Tony Hyde, the 39-bed jail that was built in 1969 was too small the day it opened, so county officials figured it would be more affordable to build a large jail rather than adding onto the building later. They also knew that the county
could rent out beds if the 255-bed jail had extra room. Columbia County Sheriff Jeff Dickerson added that the county’s population and crime rate was on the rise when the jail was built in 1998, so the county was preparing for an influx of prisoners. Other voters felt that if the jail did not rent beds to the U.S. Marshals there would not be a funding problem. Dickerson said it costs $95 per night to house an inmate in Columbia County Jail, but the Marshals contract will only pay $78 per bed per night. Dickerson stated that he has attempted to negotiate the U.S. Marshal’s contract for a higher rate per bed, but he has been told that Columbia County does not qualify for a higher rate. Dickerson noted that the revenue from renting beds to the U.S. Marshals is what
has kept the jail open this long. At the time of Dickerson’s interview, Columbia County Jail had 25 beds for local inmates and 113 beds for federal inmates. “If we didn’t have the Marshals keeping the food going and the medical going and enough staff, we would have closed the jail three years ago,” the sheriff confirmed. “There’s a lot of criticism out there with no idea on how to pay for the jail. But cutting the Marshals’ beds is the last thing we should do because it would double the cost of the levy.” Hyde added that in the past, money was set aside from U.S. Marshals’ bed rentals and put into a sequestered account for future use, but that account has been drained in order to keep the jail open. Conn said another common response is that citizens are unhappy with the county
commissioners and fear the levy funds will end up in the county coffers rather than the jail budget. Shelly Motherway-Bronson told The Chronicle she also plans to vote “no” on the levy. “Not my fault the county can’t manage their money better,” Motherway-Bronson said. “I can’t tell my boss I need a raise just because I am irresponsible.” She elaborated, “It has nothing to do with whether we need a jail, of course we need a jail. It has everything to do with lack of responsibility from our local politicians, and we do not need them. We will keep the jail but if we keep giving in they will pull this crap again next year or in two years guaranteed.” Clint Perreault had similar complaints, “This county has a history of losing money See JAIL, Page A3

HORSIN’: Equestrian therapy is just the ticket for some From PAGE A1 rhythmic stretching in their hips, legs and back. The facility has six program horses, three of which are used for students with special needs such as autism and cerebral palsy. Euwer says about 25 percent of her students have special needs and are able to ride horses as a form physical and occupational therapy. Euwer says many of her students’ conditions have common characteristics — such as hypotonic muscle and relying nonverbal communication — that she takes into account when developing a lesson with them. For example, a person with cerebral palsy might benefit best from lessons designed to open up their hips or strengthen their limbs or core muscles. Chris Davenport, who is paralyzed from the waist down, rides horses at Sande School of Horsemanship to help improve his circulation, flexibility and muscle tone. “Riding a horse very closely simulates walking to the pelvis, so people with limited mobility often ride to condition their body for walking,” Euwer explains. Euwer says the three horses reserved for special needs lessons are relaxed, patient and generally just know what to do. “Lucy just knows,” Euwer says of one horse. “She will approach people in wheelchairs. Like when they’re being brought down from a horse and being put into their wheelchair, she will come up to them and nuzzle them with her head — and she only does it to people in wheelchairs.” Some Sande students are what Euwer calls “therapeutic riders,” or kids who have trouble making friends, are ostracized at school, or lack confidence. While she has numerous success stories about her students, one of Euwer’s favorites

is the story of Maryjane McLaughlin. “One student first came to the school four years ago,” Euwer remembers. “She had moved to the area to live with her grandparents and she didn’t know anybody. She had little confidence, she didn’t have many friends, and she had a rough upbringing. She started with our summer camp and she barely spoke — and she was very scared of horses.” But as the Sande family will tell you, the horses have a way of bringing out traits that students don’t realize they have. “Incredible things happen to their confidence,” says Euwer, who has been an instructor for 12 years. “It’s about the fact that you’re controlling a 1,000-pound animal that could crush you if they wanted; getting them to listen.” McLaughlin took private
lessons and later leased a horse. Then she made friends at the barn and became involved in 4-H. Before long, she was the events and activities coordinator for 4H, and then a Sande summer camp counselor. Now McLaughlin, 14, is a mentor for the Sande’s Barn Buddy Youth Enrichment Program, which pairs a children in third through seventh grades with peer mentors. Last year, she bought her own horse and plans to train it herself. McLaughlin says of Sande School of Horsemanship, “It’s really a life experience that teaches you not only how to be a good horseback rider and horsemanship, but teaches you life lessons and a great perspective of your personality.” In addition to the Barn Buddy program, Sande School of Horsemanship

offers horsemanship group lessons for youth ages eight to 18, and Little Wranglers, small horsemanship classes for kids age four to seven. There are also therapeutic grooming sessions to teach participants how to take care of a horse, including grooming, feeding, bathing, exercising and stall cleaning. The week after schools close for summer vacation, the school offers summer day camps for students ages four to 14 to learn riding, care-taking and safe-handling skills. For the more advanced
students, they have “horse share”, which is a partiallease program for Sande students who take at least an every-other-week lesson. Participants are assigned a horse and can ride whenever that horse is available. In the future, Euwer expects to have some open seats on the school’s board of directors. Anyone interested in serving on the board is encouraged to contact Sande School of Horsemanship. Those interested in checking out the facility should mark their calendars

JAIL: Levy vote faces uncertain future at the polls From PAGE A1
and not spending money the way the people want. That being said I am still voting no on this unless I can find a good enough reason to change my mind…” Columbia County Commissioners have drafted an ordinance to establish a Columbia County Jail Operating Fund Advisory Committee to
oversee spending. According to Hyde, roughly 25 percent of general fund is allocated to the sheriff’s department. Dickerson said when he was hired in 2009, county commissioners committed $4.1 million to the sheriff’s office. The budget for FY2014-15 allocates $2.9 million for the sheriff’s office, with $1.4 million of that
set aside for the jail. “We have a shrinking budget,” Hyde explained. “We used to get $2.4 million from O&C timberlands. That’s down to roughly $420,000 or something like that, and next year it’s at zero.” Hyde said the county’s revenue is also shrinking due to a decline in housing values. The increase in costs and
the decrease in revenue has required county employees to take furlough days, as well. “Right now, our budget does not have a jail in it because there’s not enough money to fund it,” the sheriff explained. “If this levy does not pass, we will not be able to open it up. Whatever I can do, I’m doing to keep this jail open.”
This isn’t the first time voters have been presented with such a levy. The November ballot included a four-year levy to fund jail operations, which voters turned down. This time around, the county is proposing a 58-cent tax per $1,000 of assessed value for three years. Expected to raise property taxes by 3 percent or more, the
levy is estimated to raise approximately $2.3 million for the jail in 2015, $2.4 million in 2016, and $2.4 million in 2017. If approved, the proposed levy would add 75 local inmate beds, as well as fund six corrections deputies and one supervisory position, and provide the required food, clothing management and health care to inmates.

And then when you have all the facts, you apply the law according to the facts and you come to a just resolution.” Grant says she also enjoys working with people and presiding over Drug Court. “When you’re a judge and doing criminal work — and that’s two-thirds of what I do — they’re in trouble
and on probation. You don’t get to see the progress. But in Drug Court, I see a lot of progress in people and that’s fun.” Grant also likes tackling the challenge of helping people find custody arrangements that are the best option amid the circumstances. “It’s like figuring out a budget,” she explains. “You’re taking resources and allocating it to what’s best for the kids — and the whole family.” She adds that her experience within the community has provided her
with knowledge about the resources available to the public, such the Oregon Health Plan, drug rehabilitation, and other social services. Having owned a Spanish restaurant in the past, Grant says she’s also able to relate to small business owners in our county.

HOUSE: Recovery house raises concerns From PAGE A1 allow the residents to reunite with their children and live as a family while the parents find employment, save money and eventually find their own permanent housing. The average resident stays in the house six to 12 months. He added that most of their residents do not drive and would be transported with the program’s van, so there would not be an increase in vehicles in the neighborhood. Cubbedge assured residents that the neighborhood would be safe because the house is staffed 24 hours a day. He added that the house staff — such as the house manager, peer support specialists and supervisors — have all passed background checks submitted through the state. “I love this community, I want to be a good partner,” Cubbedge said. Lee Coleman, DHS District 1 manager, said houses like the one being established in Columbia River View Estates are funded as a requirement of SB 964, which was passed by the Oregon legislature to create programs that are meant to bring children out of foster care, help parents in recovery and bring families back together. Kristin Lemon, from the Columbia branch of the Oregon Department of Human Services Child Welfare, said there would be up to six families in which the adults would be receiving local outpatient treatment services or have completed treatment. Lemon said the house would be an environment where parents can reunite with their children and prove they can care for them. Caseworkers would visit the property at least every 30 days. She explained that the house
would provide the support the residents need so that when they leave the house they never end up back there. Bruce Lofland, with the St. Helens Child Welfare office, said he has worked in child welfare for 25 years and thoroughly researched Iron Tribe. He asked community to embrace the project and help the families that would live there. He said the families would be under court supervision and told neighbors to call him if there are any problems. Public testimony questioned Iron Tribe’s transparency and why the neighbors and the city were not informed of their plans for the house sooner. Lemon claimed that they had no intention of being secretive in the process and said there was a community meeting in December to discuss the project. The meeting took place in St. Helens, and was held before DHS decided to contract with Iron Tribe and before they had chosen a house. Some citizens felt that DHS may not have put enough thought into the location of the facility due to limited transportation and the amount of jobs available in Scappoose. Residents also raised questions about whether Iron Tribe needs a business license to operate the facility, and whether they had obtained the permits required to make modifications to the house. Others noted that Columbia River View Estates is for single-family homes, according to the homeowners association’s covenants, conditions and restrictions. They were also concerned about how the facility’s location would affect their property values. “This downgrade in livability in this community will
hold us hostage in our own homes,” said Pat Anderson. Justin Yee said he had contacted people who live near one of Iron Tribe’s other houses in Milwaukie. Yee said he was told that there were a few domestic incidents at the house and that the landscaping had not been maintained, but the people living there were generally quiet. Reaves said, “There have been insinuations that we were coerced, I can assure you that’s not the case.” Reaves said he’s lived next places like the houses operated by Iron Tribe and told his neighbors that no one has a bigger investment in the project than he does. He noted that his house was for sale for over a year and anyone could have purchased it. Councilors Mark Reed, Larry Meres and Barb Hayden expressed disappointment in how the plans without informing anyone. “This is really putting the cart before the horse,” said Hayden. “It really upsets me.” Mayor Scott Burge, who felt the city’s land use laws should be respected, said city staff needs to determine if SB 964 supersedes the city’s laws and if the city has the authority to stop the project. “If it falls under something that we are preemptive of enforcing, we can’t do anything about it,” city manager Don Otterman explained. Former city councilman Jeff Bernhard asked the council to direct city staff to work with Iron Tribe and DHS to investigate the issue further and compile the information into a report to be presented at the May 5 meeting. Otterman said a complete report would be done and he would find out what the laws allow and what the city can and cannot do.

Out for a stroll on the exercise path in McCormick Park. Residents generally gave parks good marks.
DON PATTERSON / The Chronicle
City of St. Helens to update parks and trails master plan BY DON PATTERSON dpatterson@countrymedia.net
St. Helens residents rank walking and bike trails as highly important, but give the city low marks for the trail system. What city residents think of their parks and trails is the subject of an extensive research project the City of St. Helens is undertaking. The goal: update the current parks master plan and create a comprehensive trail network connecting neighborhoods, parks, the waterfront and businesses. The plan was last updated in 1999. Jennifer Dimsho is managing the project. In the spring of 2012, St. Helens received a grant from the Ford Family Foundation to hire Dimsho, an Americorp member working with the Resource Assistance for Rural Environments or
RARE program. Since September, she has been collecting information from city commissions, service groups, high school and middle school students and city staff. She has also conducted online polls and moderated a public forum on the topic. Dimsho found an astonishing 96 percent of city residents had visited a park in the last year. Those that didn’t said it was because they didn’t know where one was. McCormick Park is the most popular park in the city, followed by Columbia View Park, on the waterfront and Campbell Park on St. Helens’ west side. Dimsho’s said her research shows people feel good about their parks, but less so about the city trail system. “I think people generally feel good about their parks system, the amenities in the
parks and the number of parks. Overall people are satisfied,” Dimsho said. When asked what kinds of amenities people wanted to see, she pointed to places for picnics and playgrounds as areas people said could be improved. She also said public restrooms were a priority, noting Sixth Street Park is heavily used, but has no public restrooms. On the topic of maintenance, the survey showed people thought McCormick Park, Grey Cliffs Park and Walnut Tree Park were well maintained or somewhat maintained. Heinie Heumann Memorial Park, Sand Island Marine Park and Columbia Botanical Gardens ranked among the worst maintained, according to the survey. Dimsho said she was glad some residents who would like to see areas maintained and returned to

a natural state, with native plants. Of the respondents supporting athletic fields in the parks, baseball and softball fields were most important, followed by soccer fields and basketball courts. “I was glad to see a well rounded audience, verses just one side dominating,” she said of the public forum the city conducted to collect information. A trail along the waterfront is also a priority, Dimsho said, both with people and with the City. Dimsho plans to prepare recommendations that she hopes will be incorporated into the city’s Parks Master Plan with specific projects the city can act on as resources become available.

Jayden Alexander was recently honored with a presidential service award for her volunteer efforts.
Student receives presidential award for volunteerism
ST. HELENS — During an April 16 assembly at St. Helens Middle School, eighth grader Jayden Alexander was honored for her exemplary volunteer service with a President’s Volunteer Service Award. The award, which recognizes Americans of all ages who have volunteered significant amounts of their time to serve their communities and their country, was granted by The Prudential Spirit of Community Awards program on behalf of President Barack Obama. School officials nominated Jayden for national honors this fall in recognition of her volunteer service. Jayden is the president of the school’s Builder’s Club under the sponsorship of the Kiwanis Club of St. Helens. As part of the Builder’s Club, she has helped organize fundraising campaigns to raise money to fight cancer, such as putting on dances, coin drives and other events. Hat Day, where students could wear hats to school for a fee, raised $300. Recently, she helped
plan a Hawaiian-themed dance for adults with developmental disabilities. She also runs the student store and has been involved in local food drives and the Martin Luther King, Jr. Service Day. Teachers say she is the “go to” person to get things done. School staff say Jayden manages to keep up on all her volunteering commitments while maintaining a stellar grade point average and a positive disposition. She also is on the school track and basketball teams and takes contemporary dance and ballet classes. “I’m really surprised I got it,” Jayden said after the assembly. “I do a lot of community service but I didn’t expect to get something this big.” The Prudential Spirit of Community Awards, sponsored by Prudential Financial in partnership with the National Association of Secondary School Principals recognizes middle level and high school students across America for outstanding volunteer service. Jayden is the daughter of Jonathan and Kathleen Alexander of St. Helens.

Letters Jail and fire dept too much money $22 million between the jail and the fire department is a lot to ask the taxpayers to shell out in levy obligations. Big ideas and costly expenditures have finally caught up with the county. Commissioner Hyde spoke of how the jail would pay for itself with federal prisoners. This did not happen because for the last 14 years the county charged less than what it cost to house a federal prisoner. Did we need a 250-bed jail? No we didn’t. The jail was in financial straits from day one with the county funneling funds to operate it. Thankfully in 2008 when the county wanted to expand the jail beds to over 500 they could not acquire the funds. We need only to take care of our local inmates and if the federal government wants to house prisoners here then pay for the actual cost. As for the fire department, if they are in need of funds so badly why has the fire board promoted their financial person. Why has the fire department reneged on their agreement to man the substation 24/7 up Canaan Rd at Deer Island? Both substations Deer Island and the fairgrounds were built at the same time and for the same reason- response time. They want to expand the fairground sub-station and want funds to buy equipment but they do not have enough fire fighters to cover the expansion. Doesn’t make sense. We are still paying off the training center, which was built for Boise Cascade employees. This is just one of many bad decisions that are costing the taxpayers millions. Let Jay Tappan figure out a way to meet his budget, we have one of the costliest fire departments in the state. The problem lies with some of those in command, and not the fire fighters themselves. Tammy Maygra Deer Island, Ore Supports Jenefer Grant Judge Jenefer Grant is an excellent judge. She is smart, fair, and courteous, and she knows the law. I work with her in the Judicial Engagement and Leadership Institute (JELI), an organization that seeks to improve the court’s response to cases involving abused and neglected children. She is a valuable member of the JELI workgroup, and she has introduced innovative practices to Columbia Juvenile Court to help at-risk children. She also chairs the Columbia County Family Law Advisory Committee, a group that looks for ways to improve court services for children and families in family law cases. Judge Grant is presiding judge of Columbia Circuit Court. In this role, she provides leadership and applies her administrative skills to help the court run smoothly. In August of 2013, she led the court in the successful implementation of the new

electronic court known as eCourt. When this program is fully developed, it will increase access to justice for all citizens of Columbia County. I urge you to vote for Judge Grant in the May election. You are lucky to have her. Paula Brownhill Astoria Muddling The Waters Again the county is proposing a jail operating levy of $7 million to fund 100 jail beds, and in addition, the fire and rescue people are asking for a bond of $15 million to purchase equipment and station remodeling. While the jail averages a need for 75 to 80 beds per day, the jail operating levy does not limit or restrict the use of the other 155 beds which means business as usual, which I find unacceptable. Why not write into the levy to winterize and seal closed the 155 empty beds except for national emergencies? In an article Fire Chief Tappan stated he plans on expanding the Fair Grounds Station, placing a bigger fire engine at the Deer Island Station and using part the bond to refinance old debt obligations. With the increase of Bakken Oil Unit Trains thru the county the proposed changes are desperately needed, but why muddle the water by refinancing old debts? To gain public support and pass ballot measures, our public officials need to be clear and concise on their intentions. Repeatedly in past elections voters stated, they do not want a jail full of federal inmates or the possibility of them in the future. As for old debts, a plan to pay them off quicker makes a better choice; not refinancing them and passing them to the next generation. Joseph Turner Columbia City Remember Jennifer Warren As time continues marching on, I would like to remind readers of the anniversary date of May 20, 2012. Many of us need no reminding, it is a day we will never be able to forget or erase from our memories. On May 20, 2012 Jennifer Warren was murdered by a client who was under the jurisdiction of the Oregon Psychiatric State Review Board while delivering medication to his home. Why would I write about such a tragic loss to her family, her friends, and our community? I write this not because it is easy, not as a painful reminder, but so that we as Oregonians can help bring about a change to an Oregon law that may help prevent such a senseless loss from happening again. House Bill 4048 which is sponsored by Representative Brad Witt and Senator Betsy Johnson would bring about a change to that Oregon law. With that change in place it would allow families who lost a loved one as a result of the negligence of a state employee or agency to bring a claim against the State of
Oregon. This bill goes beyond the scope of who will pay or how much will be paid out, as we all know there is no amount of money that can compensate for such a loss. What it does is hold those entities accountable for the safety of their employees by hitting them where it would hurt most, the wallet. Knowing that, it is my belief that safety protocols would not only be put into place but also monitored to assure they are being followed. Many individuals believe that workers compensation is enough of an assurance and insurance against the loss of life. That it just needs to be increased to an amount more suitable then the approximate $16K that was paid for Jennifer’s death, which is a hard stretch to even cover the funeral costs. There are two flaws with this theory, the first being the placement of an increased monetary value on the life of any human being is enough of a concession by state entities. The second! flaw is it once again leaves nobody to be held accountable for the safety of employees. The thought process needs to change from how much money might this possibly cost in the event of another murder such as Jennifer’s and focus on preventing it from happening again. We as Oregonians have a track record of being proactive versus reactive and it should be no different on this issue as well. Every other agency in the state can be held accountable financially except for the State agency or those employed by them makes no sense. How is it possible that House Bill 4048 had its first reading on February 3, 2014 and there has barely been a blip on the screen letting us know as members of this community and voters in the State of Oregon? I ask you as Oregonians, members of this community, friends and family of Jennifer’s to educate yourself on House Bill 4048, tell others, open a dialogue and most of all let Jennifer’s voice continue to be heard by supporting this bill and bringing a much needed change that will protects our workers. Pam Daniel Scappoose Sheriff proud of staff As sheriff’s office resources have dwindled over the years, we have sought ways to work smarter and provide some additional methods for the communities we serve to receive sheriff’s services. With only one deputy assigned per shift and office support that depends heavily on volunteers to stay on top of things, we have resorted more and more to automated responses to many of the non-emergency related events that occur in our county every day. Last year, more than 9,000 calls for sheriff’s office service came in to dispatch. We sort these calls according to priority and go to the most pressing calls first. Averaging over 25 calls per day
scattered across the 688 square miles of our county, it is impossible to respond in person to every call. Those calls to which we cannot immediately respond are followed up on as soon as possible. We have a triage system for handling non-emergency calls and a checks and balances approach to make sure people needing a call back get one—that includes the hundreds of calls coming in on our citizen report line (503-369-9273). It might take a while, but we’ve done pretty well connecting with complainants. But there are other ways to let us know what is going on and for us to stay in touch with you. Our website at www.co.columbia. or.us/sheriff provides a number of contact points for you to file a crime report, make an appointment for a concealed handgun license, obtain dog licensing information, make a request by e-mail, or locate our calls for service report and our annual sheriff’s office reports. As long as we still have our jail, you can go on our website to see who is in custody and their charges, put money on an inmate’s account and even order gift packages for friends and/or family who are in custody. Our front office staff also goes the extra mile, taking fingerprinting and concealed handgun licensing services to remote areas in the county twice a month. The last Saturday of the month they also come in to handle the ongoing demand for concealed handgun licenses. This is on top of their regular duties working on civil papers and managing the thousands of warrants, investigative reports and concealed handgun license applications they receive every year. As we’ve seen our resources fall, our staff has responded with creativity

and devotion to duty to still present the most efficient law enforcement and public safety services money can buy. I hope you are as proud of your sheriff’s office and its dedicated employees as I continue to be. It has been a tremendous honor and privilege to serve with them during these very difficult times. Jeffrey M. Dickerson Columbia County Sheriff Letter to Gov. Kitzhaber Gov. Kitzhaber - Well, guess what? Those poorly constructed one and onehalf mile long trains are already coming through the middle of our towns in Columbia County. They are traveling over bridges which were built in 1898 and have had very little inspection over the years. They are traveling right next to schools and businesses and homes and state highways. How would you like to deal with an explosion in Scappoose or St. Helens where most of the schools are built right next to the RR tracks? They came in the back door and nobody saw them coming thanks to the commissioners on the Port of St. Helens who would sign a confidentiality agreement with the devil if it would make them feel important or if they could file their endeavors under “creating jobs”. You need to do something now - not two or three years down the road. I am attaching pictures of schools which I took from the middle of the railroad tracks without using any telephoto lens. This is how close the potential total destruction of these schools is right at this moment. Here is the link where you can view the pictures.... http://1drv.ms/1mpuV3n Nancy Whitney St. Helens, Oregon
Support Judge Jean Martwick The people of Columbia County are fortunate to have Judge Martwick as one of our County Judges. She has worked very hard for the people of Columbia County, serving them with honesty and careful deliberation. She brings to the job thousands of hours of court room experience from her career in public service. I met Jean over 20 years ago when we were both struggling food servers. I know that she does an outstanding job in whatever she attempts. Vote for someone who will continue to represent our county with honest integrity - Judge Jean Martwick.

Family needs community’s help to fulfill mom’s dying wish A woman who dedicated years to helping improve the lives of local youth is now fighting for her life as she battles cancer. Jean Lewis, an instrumental volunteer who coordinated the Columbia County Teen Court program, was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in November 2012. Since having two lymph nodes, her spleen and two-thirds of her pancreas removed in March 2013, Jean has suffered a stroke and was recently informed that her cancer has spread to her liver. Unfortunately, Jean’s immune system prevents her from receiving chemotherapy. Knowing that Jean is running out of time, her children would like to help her fulfill her last wish — meeting some her family. Jean’s mother was raised in an orphanage and her father died when she was 4 months old. Jean never
Jean Lewis
knew her father and did not have grandparents, aunts or uncles. The only family she knows is the family she has raised, but that may soon change. Jean’s son, Mark Lewis, has located some of Jean’s relatives in Scotland, and his mother’s last living wish is
to go to Scotland so she can hug and hold the hand of a family member before she dies. Her daughter, Annette Townsend, says she is trying to raise enough money to buy the airplane tickets to get Jean to Scotland, which will cost about $5,200. Anyone wishing to help Jean get to Scotland can donate money to an account set up under Jean’s name at St. Helens Federal Credit Union. Checks may be sent via mail to SHCU, P.O. Box 537, St. Helens, OR 97051 (in the memo please put account #761930 or for the benefit of Jean Lewis). Pick up a raffle ticket at ____ Bowling Alley for your chance to win meals from local restaurants, an hour of bowling, 5 yeards of barkdust and more. Tickets are $1 each or six tickets for $5. The winning tickets will be drawn at a Scentsy fundraiser
being held Saturday, May 3 at the Best Western in St. Helens from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. They are also accepting donations of cans and bottles. For more information, call Annette at 503-4334108 or 503-369-6839. Any money left over will be donated to Jean’s favorite project, Teen Court. “My mom has donated five years of every waking minute to starting Teen Court in Columbia County and has helped change a lot of teens’ lives, including saving one from committing suicide,” Annette explains. “Last year, when everything that could go wrong with her surgery and stroke and bleeding in the brain was happening, all she kept saying is, ‘I have to get better because my work is not done.’ That is what saved her life at that time; she pushed herself to get better to help these kids.”

Scappoose High School drama club presents ‘Hello Dolly’
SCAPPOOSE – Dolly’s “back where she belongs!” Right on our local stage! The Scappoose High School Drama Club proudly presents “Hello, Dolly” in the SHS Auditorium. This classic Broadway musical is directed by Tom Weaver, with the chorus directed by e Kristen Caldwell. Student performers include Avery Jones as Dolly Levi, Eddie Cassim as Horace Vandergelder, Clare Kessi as Irene Molloy, Kiersten Hight as Minnie Fay, Steven Wells as Cornelius Hackl, Tyler Dietrichs as Barnaby Tucker, Brandon Patanjo as Ambrose Kemper, and Samantha Darr as Ermengarde. The orchestra, conducted by Larry Jackson, includes both student and adult players from the Scappoose community. The show also features choreography by SHS seniors Emily Kimball and Rachel Mayes. The chorus, stage management, and crew include numerous experienced SHS drama students, and others in the community have come forward to help with costumes, sets, props, and publicity. “Hello, Dolly!” is based on the play “The Matchmaker” by Thornton Wilder. Initially, the millionaire curmudgeon Horace Vandergelder asks the skilled matchmaker (and meddler) Dolly Levi to find him a new wife. She arranges for him to meet Irene Molloy, but Dolly has no real intention of that match working out. Meanwhile, when Mr. Vandergelder leaves Yonkers for New York City to meet Irene, his clerks Cornelius and Barnaby decide to make an unauthorized visit
to NYC themselves. The mischief continues as Dolly works on her own match and helps Cornelius and Barnaby with their matches along the way. “Hello, Dolly!” is suitable for all audiences. With delightful music, memorable characters, old-fashioned charm, and singing and dancing galore, this is a show the entire family will enjoy. Memorable musical numbers include “Elegance,” “Hello, Dolly!,” “It Only Takes A Moment,” “Put On Your Sunday Clothes,” “Ribbons Down My Back,” “Before the Parade Passes By,” and “So Long, Dearie.” The original production was directed and choreographed by Gower Champion and produced for the Broadway stage by David Merrick and Champion-Five, Inc. in 1964. It starred Carol Channing and won a record 10 Tony Awards including Best Musical. “Hello, Dolly!” has enjoyed three Broadway revivals since then. There have been several movie versions, too. The 1969 film was nominated for seven Academy Awards; it starred Barbra Streisand and Walter Matthau and was directed by Gene Kelly. “Hello, Dolly!” is presented through special arrangement with Tams-Witmark Music Library Inc., New York, N.Y. Performances are Thursday through Saturday, May 1, 2, and 3 at 7 p.m. and also on Saturday, May 3 at 2 p.m. Tickets are $7 for regular admission and $5 for students and seniors, and are available for purchase at the door.

Indian, Lion boys combine for seven wins by kyle boggs sports@thechronicleonline.com
WILSONVILLE — The Scappoose High School boys won four events en route to a third-place finish at the Wilsonville Invitational on April 19. The St. Helens Lions boys weren’t far off the Tribe’s pace, winning three events and taking sixth place out of 19 schools in action. In the girls competition, the Indians were 13th out of 20 teams and the Lions were 15th. As they’ve made a habit of doing this year, the SHS boys won both relays. Seniors Carson Davison, Matt Shoun, Justice Oman and Nick Rust clocked a time of 43.84 seconds in the 4x100 relay – nearly a full second ahead of second-place Aloha (44.64). Shoun, Oman, Rust
and senior Mychal Hortert won the 4x400 with a time of 3:26, their best mark of the season. “The boys are really excited about how things are progressing and just get more and more dialed in each week. I think that success certainly carries over week to week and just increases the desire and work ethic each day at practice,” said Scappoose coach David Harley. Oman and Hortert finished first and third in the 400. Oman won with a time of 50.93 seconds and Hortert finished in 52.39. Senior Kenny Klippel gave the Tribe a win in the discus with a throw of 137-4. “He has gotten much stronger this year and I think I knew that it ultimately would make the greatest difference in his discus and shot put,”
Harley said. St. Helens took a win in the shot put, with senior Jacob Zartman throwing 48-2.5. Senior Chris Gray owned the pole vault. He cleared 13 feet to win by a whole foot and add his name to the SHHS top 10 list in that event. “Chris had to improve his speed and strength to be able to go higher in the pole vault. He is working hard in practice and wants to be put in the 4x400 at meets. He is doing everything he can to get better,” said St. Helens coach Gerry Tinkle. Lion junior Jesse Vanderwall was third with a vault of 11-6. Senior Thomas Hughes had the Lions’ other win, finishing more than a full second ahead of the runner-up in the 300-meter hurdles.

Ashley Giesbers switches defensive positions, sides of plate
O
by kyle boggs
pposing teams may wonder what happened to the shock of red hair that roamed center field last year, running down anything in the area. Or the speedy bat that wore No. 4, hit .329 from the righthand side of the plate, and was an honorable mention AllState outfielder as a freshman. St. Helens lost that particular player. She didn’t quit softball, she didn’t get injured, nor did she transfer schools. She simply transformed herself. Since playing youth softball, Ashley Giesbers had been a right-handed hitting outfielder. Then, almost as quickly as she can scoot from the batter’s box to first base, she became a shortstop who hits strictly from the left side. Neither transition has come completely naturally. Because Giesbers is gifted with tremendous speed, her coaches saw an upside to putting her on the left side of home plate, where she starts a couple steps closer to first base. Plus there’s the added element of slap-hitting, where a left-handed softball batter starts running before swinging the bat. That gives an already fast runner the advantage of a head start. At the same time, it completely recreates her natural swing. A right-handed hitter takes one small step toward the pitcher with her left leg, then swings. A slap hitter be-
gins by running toward the pitcher, then tries to place the ball somewhere on the field rather than drive it as hard as possible. “It was really difficult, all the things you do with your hands and your feet. Especially changing the opposite way I’ve batted my entire life,” Giesbers said. “It’s definitely a challenge because you have to work on keeping your shoulders in and your head in. If you don’t, then you’re going to make really bad contact.” For the most part this season, she’s avoided the poor contact. While her average has dipped slightly from a year ago – she was batting .261 through St. Helens’ April 18 game against Liberty – her switch is still beneficial to the team. As a lefty, her coach points out, she’s liable to draw more walks from opposing pitchers. “As a left-handed hitter you end up getting a lot more walks because pitchers don’t like throwing to left handedhitters because there aren’t as many of them in the lineup. And she might get hit a little more than she did when she was on the right side,” said St. Helens coach Miranda Little. Giesbers has four walks

Lions dominate Broncos
PORTLAND — With wins in three of the four singles matches and four of the five doubles matches, the St. Helens Lions cruised to a 7-2 Northwest Oregon Conference victory over the Parkrose Broncos on April 18. All nine matches were decided in straight sets. The Lions No. 1 doubles team of seniors Lexi Normine and Madison Kaplan stayed undefeated this season with a 6-1, 6-1 victory. In singles action, seniors Lauren Chambers and Jo’Cee Giroski won the Nos. 1 and 2 matches, respectively. Justice Krickeberg made her
singles debut, winning 6-0, 6-1. “Krickeberg, who had never played singles during her high school career, gave a dominating performance to give the team a much needed win at No. 4 singles,” said St. Helens coach Dave Geiger. The Lions only doubles defeat came in the No. 5 slot. Geiger said that freshmen Hunter Blazek and Cambria Cross both played well in their first varsity match, a 6-0, 6-4 defeat. “Blazek and Cross teamed for their first varsity doubles match and See lions, Page A15
It’s called “The greatest little Shrine game in the world,” and as many as seven standout football players from area high schools may play in it. On Aug. 2, the 62nd annual Oregon East-West Shrine AllStar Football Game kicks off at Bulldog Stadium in Baker, Ore. The game pits teams chosen from 4A, 3A, 2A, and 1A schools from across Oregon. Taylor Loss from Scappoose High School and Jason Larson from Rainier High School as well as Garrett Markam from Banks High School will play. Kenny Klippel of Scappoose, Sawyer Weldon of Clatskanie, Jesse Hutchins of Rainier and Nolan Hill of Banks have been chosen as alternates and could also have the opportunity to participate. All seven were honored at a banquet at the St. Helens Shrine Hall on April 18. They will all be representatives of the West Team during the game. At least two in the group plan to play college ball this fall, but for most of the players, it might be the last chance to suit up and play. The game has a rich history. It’s the longest-running Shrine Game in the country, starting in 1952. The game is also number

PORTLAND — The St. Helens High School boys and girls track teams both defeated Parkrose on April 16. In the process, senior Kylie Reinholdt became the first Lion girl in several seasons to run a sub-13 second 100-meter dash. The girls won the meet 103-31. Running the open 100 for the first time this season, Reinholdt blew away the field with a time of 12.97 seconds. Haley Ricker was the last SHHS girl to break 13 seconds, doing so with a time of 12.73 in 2008. “Hopefully we are getting faster. With our system of sprint training, it takes a while for times to drop. We are at the time of the season where our athletes should be getting faster,” said St. Helens coach Gerry Tinkle. “We don’t look fast early, but we finish strong.” Reinholdt added one of the top long jumps in the Northwest Oregon Conference this season with a leap of 16-5. It earned her second place behind Parkrose freshman Jewell Boland, who went 16-10. The Lion girls controlled the rest of the meet with 10 different individuals winning events and the 4x400 relay team capping the meet with another victory. The boys won 86-58, led by senior Jacob Zartman in the throws. He won the shot put with a toss of 45-4.5 and the javelin with a distance of

Bats heating up for SHHS
kyle boggs / The Chronicle St. Helens softball players, from left, Mariah Mulcahy, Stevie Strawn, Bridget Strang and Kali Moore rush out of the dugout to celebrate Taylor Leal’s home run against Sherwood.
Lions shut out two in a row Junior pitcher Mariah Mulcahy threw shutouts in back-to-back games last week, ringing up 28 strikeouts over the 14 scoreless innings she pitched. St. Helens (7-5, 2-0) was boosted by the bats of sophomore Taylor Leal in a 2-0 win over Sherwood (5-8, 1-1) and junior Michelle Sass in a 1-0 win over second-ranked Liberty (11-3, 0-2). In the Northwest Oregon Conference opener on April 15, Mulcahy threw a one-hit shutout with 12 strikeouts and three walks. The one hit she allowed was an innocent single to lead off the sixth inning. “She did phenomenal,” said St. Helens coach Miranda Little. St. Helens got on the scoreboard in the fourth inning when sophomore Ashley Giesbers scored on a sacrifice fly from Leal. Leal added an insurance run in the bottom of the sixth when she blasted
a solo home run over the center-field fence. “We told them to find some gaps. She found one over the fence, I guess,” Little said. The Bowmen threatened in the top of the seventh. A walk and an error led to Sherwood having runners on second and third with one out. After the team gathered in the pitcher’s circle, Mulcahy struck out two straight Sherwood batters to end the game. That made for a nearly flawless coaching debut for Little, who took over head-coaching duties the day before the game. The only hiccup occurred before the game, when Little didn’t know which lineup card she was supposed to hand the umpire. On April 18, St. Helens had at least one runner in scoring position in five of the first six innings, but was still locked in a scoreless tie against Liberty entering the final frame.
Senior Stevie Strawn led off the top of the seventh with a double. Giesbers singled to move Strawn to third. Sass ripped a single that scored Strawn. That was the only run the Lions would get, and thanks in large part to Mulcahy, it was the only run they would need. Mulcahy struck out 16 batters in a complete game shutout. She gave up four hits and did not walk a batter. Strawn, Giesbers, Sass and Mulcahy combined for all nine St. Helens hits. Strawn was 2-for-4. Giesbers finished 2-for-3. Sass was 3-for-4. Mulcahy went 2-for-3. The Lions hosted the fifth-ranked Sandy Pioneers (10-4, 1-1) on April 22. St. Helens’ other two games are on the road this week. The Lions play at Wilsonville (3-11, 1-1) at 5 p.m. on April 23 and at Milwaukie (1-11, 0-2) at 5 p.m. on April 25.
Last week started with a surge at the plate for the St. Helens Lions (5-8, 3-3), who pounded out a season-high 14 hits during a 12-0 win against the Parkrose Broncos (1-12, 0-6). The win was followed by a pair of losses that were both closer than the final score indicates. St. Helens dropped a 5-1 contest to No. 8 Rex Putnam (9-5, 5-1) on April 16. On April 18, the league-leading Kingsmen beat the Lions, 6-1. St. Helens started a game against No. 10 Sherwood (8-6, 5-1) on April 21, but it was postponed in the fifth inning because of rain. The Bowmen hold a 3-0 lead, but the game will resume with the Lions at bat and two runners on base. A date for finishing this game has not yet been set. Senior center fielder Josh Keller set the tone immediately against Parkrose, and his teammates followed his lead. The leadoff hitter had a base hit his first time up and came around to score the first of six first-inning runs for St. Helens. Keller finished the game 4-for-5 at the plate. Junior catcher Bryce Winnier added some punch to the lower part of the batting order. Hitting in the eight slot, Winnier was 2-for-3 with a double and two RBIs. He scored three runs. Senior Josh Henningsen and sophomore Bryce Mulcahy both contributed multi-hit games for the Lions. Henningsen was 2-for-3 with a run scored and an RBI. Mulcahy was 2-of-5 and scored twice. Junior pitcher Ryne Poorman allowed four hits in five innings while striking out six to pick up the win. Junior
kyle boggs / The Chronicle Beau Mason broke up a no-hitter in the fifth inning of an April 21 game against Sherwood. The game was postponed by rain.
Jake Shirley threw the last two innings. Keller doubled to lead off the first game against Putnam and scored on a base hit from junior Brody Takemoto. The Kingsmen answered with two runs in their half of the first inning, then added three more in the fourth. The Lions outhit their opponents but couldn’t turn those hits into runs. St. Helens left runners in scoring position in four innings. Putnam, meanwhile, scored three times with two outs in the bottom of the fourth. Takemoto ended the game 2-for-4. Winnier was 2-for-3 with a double. Sophomore Beau Mason singled in both of his at-bats. In the teams’ next matchup, St. Helens had Putnam on the ropes through five innings. A two-out rally in the bot-
tom of the fifth inning gave the Lions a 1-0 lead. Keller once again started the rally, this time by by reaching on an error. He stole second, then scored on a double from senior Tyler Stangland. Reigning Northwest Oregon Conference Player of the Year Trace Loehr started a rally for Putnam in the top of the sixth. He was hit by a pitch, then scored two batters later. The Kingsmen scored twice in the sixth, then broke loose for four runs in the top of the seventh. Putnam won the game, 6-1. St. Helens will play three games against Sherwood this week if the weather cooperates. In addition to the game that was started on April 21, the teams play in Sherwood on April 23 and back in St. Helens on April 25.

LEFTY: is learning shortstop as well LIONS: postponed From PAGE A13 this season, boosting her onbase percentage to .370. “Left-handed hitters are kind of a weird thing for pitchers. It’ll be interesting when she gets to see her first left-handed pitcher from the left side. She’ll see how weird it is that way,” Little said. Considering she throws, writes, eats and does everything else right-handed, it’s impressive enough that she can get a base hit one out of every four trips to the plate batting left-handed against varsity pitching. “Her bunting and slapping has been phenomenal. We have not had a problem with that at all. Just like today when she was hitting left-handed, she had some great hits,” Little said after a practice last week. As if switching sides of the plate wasn’t enough of a transition, Giesbers had to learn one of the most demanding defensive positions on the fly. Entering this season, shortstop was the only glaring question mark in the Lions’ defense. The team had starters back everywhere else on the field, but had to find a replacement for three-year starter Sue Sass, now playing at Chemeketa Community College.

– Ashley Giesbers St. Helens sophomore
After trying a few players at the position, Giesbers settled into the spot. Now she’s developing into a playmaker in the infield. Little described a play in a recent loss on the turf field at Jesuit High School. There was a runner on first base. Giesbers, wearing tennis shoes because of the turf, sprinted to the ball. When she fielded it, she slipped and fell. But because of her exceptional quickness, she was able to get the lead runner out at second base. “If anyone else would have gotten that, they might not have even gotten the girl at first. Her speed definitely is fantastic at shortstop,” Little said. The speed of the ball getting to her has been the biggest adjustment for Giesbers moving in from center field. And she still prefers balls hit into the air than those hit on the ground. “I played infield a long time ago, then it hit me in the head and I was done. It’s a really big, big change – a

lot less time to react,” Giesbers said. “That is probably the thing that scares me the most. It takes everything I have to keep my head down and play for the team because they want me to play short.” Practice by practice, game by game, she’s becoming more comfortable at her new position. Part of the reason for that increased comfort, she says, is that playing shortstop puts her right next to her older sister. Alyssa is the team’s third baseman, and has also spent

Tribe slams the Cheesemakers The ninth-ranked Scappoose Indians (7-5, 1-2) started last week with a blowout win over the Tillamook Cheesemakers (7-5, 2-1). The Tribe then put up a good fight against the topranked Banks Braves (10-0, 3-0) but were unable to snap the Braves’ now 35-game win streak. Senior Lacey Udpike led off the bottom of the first against THS with a triple, then scored on a single from sophomore Jessie Dykes. Dykes scored on a single from sophomore Sage Harrison. Harrison came up again with two outs and the bases loaded in the second inning, then drilled the third pitch she saw over the fence in left field. Harrison finished the game 2-for-3 with five RBIs. The leadoff triple was just the start for Updike, who added doubles in the third and fifth innings. She ended up 3-for-4 with four RBIs. Dykes was 2-for-3, scoring two runs and driving in
Davidson signs to run at Cal Baptist Charlie Davidson, a senior at Scappoose High School, has signed to run track and cross country at California Baptist University in Riverside, Calif. While still in the midst of her senior track season, Davidson is already one of the most decorated runners in SHS history. She has 10 All-State medals to her credit – three in cross country and seven in track and field. That includes an individual state title in the 1,500 meters as a freshman and a team title in cross country as a sophomore.
CBU competes in the NCAA Division II Pacific West Conference. During the 2013 cross country campaign, the Lancers’ women team finished third out of 13 teams at the PacWest Championships to qualify for the NCAA West Regional in Spokane. The women finished ninth out of 23 teams at the West Regional. The track team is in the middle of its season. The Lancers finished fifth at the 2013 PacWest Championships. – By Kyle Boggs

noon doubles, senior Kyler Mizee and junior Robby Backus both doubled on Wednesday. Ford finished the game 3-for-4 and scored two runs. Backus was 3-for-4 as well, driving in one run. The Indians needed every one of those 14 hits to make up for eight errors. Only two Tiger runs were earned. In the first game, Sprute struck out five batters without walking anyone in an efficient outing. Of the 22 batters he faced, he got ahead of 20 of them with first-pitch strikes. That led to a short workload, needing only 64 pitches. He helped himself out at the plate in the bottom of the fourth inning as well, drawing a bases-loaded walk to score senior Hunter Hoyt. Hoyt gave the Tribe a second
run an inning later. He had an RBI double to score junior Wyatt Patton. Hoyt was 2-for-2 in the game. Scappoose plays Tillamook (5-4, 2-2) this week. The teams played at THS on April 22. The Indians are home against the Cheesemakers at 5 p.m. on April 23.
