Local districts to check school water

Concerns about the safety of the drinking water in Portland public schools have spread to Columbia County and triggered testing at local schools. “Because of the situation in Portland public schools, we have reviewed our process and will be completing these tests in a timely manner,” Clatskaine School Superintendent Lloyd Hartley said. “Our maintenance supervisor is working with the city to provide for these tests, hopefully within the month.” The Portland schools drinking water crisis unfolded in April following reports in media outlets of lead levels exceeding federal safety standards. According to the World Health Organization, too much lead can damage various systems of the body including the nervous and reproductive systems, the kidneys, and it can cause high blood pressure and anemia. The lead can be found in lead piping. The Portland public schools get water from the City of Portland through the Bull Run watershed. Several of the Portland schools turned off the fountains and began providing bottled water to the students pending further testing. Hartley said while the Clatskanie District conducts the tests, the schools’ drinking fountains ­­­­

According to Della Fawcett, a geologist and environmental consultant, you should find a sturdy table or chair to shelter under, and hang on to it until the quake stops. A doorway is essentially a hole in a wall, and Fawcett said the lack of structural support makes it less desirable, but still safer than going outside during the shaking. However, it is also important to be mindful of a swinging door, which could cause injuries with enough force. The United States Geological

How many of us remember being told to stand in a doorway if we are caught in an earthquake? Generations of children learned this basic safety tip in school. It turns out the door is one of the least safe places in a building to ride out a quake. At the Columbia River Communities Emergency Preparedness Fair this past weekend, people had the opportunity to learn a number of survival preparation skills and techniques, a subject some had not

jobs, according to Daughtry. It also helps preserve 96 jobs at the St. Helens plant by providing a ready customer for their products. Trucks will move the material between the locations. The third phase of the expansion calls for another 400,000 sq. feet of development under a $40 million investment in Scappoose. “I really want to acknowledge the efforts of Sen. Betsy Johnson and County Commissioner Tony Hyde,” Daughtry said. “They were instrumental in helping us close this very complicated and competitive deal; they were looking at a bunch of other sites, so we had to work hard to get them to come here.” The project was sent to the Scappoose Planning Commission and was scheduled for a site development review on June 16. Construction is set to begin in July 2016. Daughtry said there would be an enterprise zone agreement for the project.

Fawcett said steering clear of downed power poles is particularly noteworthy because you may not be able to see loose power lines until it is too late “It is survivable,” Fawcett said. “It is scary, and people need to know the science behind it, but it is survivable.” The Big One In the Pacific Northwest, we sit upon a convergent plate boundary; the Juan de Fuca Plate, a small plate adjacent to the larger Pacific ­­­­

Clatskanie, Rainier and St. Helens school districts are testing for lead in the schools drinking water systems.

Survey calls the method for riding out earthquakes Drop, Cover, and Hold On. The idea is you want to be as small as possible in a quake. “The reason doorways were thought to be so safe is because they were made out of wood, and most all old buildings were made out of unreinforced masonry,” Fawcett said. “So when a quake hit, the buildings would crumble and the doors would stand – not because they were safer, but because unreinforced masonry was so unsafe.” After an earthquake, move outside if possible, and stay clear of buildings, cars, power lines, trees

Cascade Tissue Cascade Tissue plans to build a state-of-the-art paper converting facility. It purchased a 50-acre parcel of land next to the Scappoose Industrial Airpark. According to Chuck Daughtry, Executive Director of Columbia County Economic Team, Cascade Tissue will invest $63 million during the first two phases of development, which includes a pair of buildings that will total 600,000 sq. feet. Daughtry said $4.5 million of the investment would be directed to operations at the St. Helens facility. Paper rolls will be manufactured in the St. Helens plant and converted into consumer products at Scappoose plant. “Part of the investment here is that it gets the two manufacturing facilities unified,” Daughtry said.

Beach users spurn new parking Local author pens

On a sweltering late spring day, area residents and visitors flock to the Columbia River for relief from the heat. One of the most popular destinations – Trestle Beach. On a recent weekday afternoon, when temperatures climbed into the 90s, dozens of people lay on the sand or cooled themselves in the still chilly Columbia River. Their cars and pickups crowded the small turnout and lined the highway shoulder near the recently rebuilt railroad underpass. Trestle beach has been a favorite swimming and

sunbathing beach for generations and drivers have parked on the highway shoulder for decades. But the unregulated congestion along a high-speed highway poses a danger to pedestrians and motorists. Serious crashes have occurred at the impromptu parking lot. Last year, the beach’s owner, the Port of St. Helens, tried to change that. After an early attempt to close off access to the popular beach met an outcry, the Port decided to accommodate recreational users by providing off-highway parking in an industrial site

it owns nearby. That doesn’t appear to be working out. While 20 vehicles crowded the roadside at the culvert, only one parked in the designated parking area the Port set aside for recreational users. “I didn’t even know it existed,” said one St. Helens resident who said she comes to the beach regularly. “Normally, there is nobody here,” claims Jessica, who said she recently “moved out”. Another young woman walking her dog said this was only the second time

she’d visited the beach, but observed “people are used to parking out here.” A small sign posted above the entrance to the culvert that serves as a tunnel under the railroad, points to trail access and parking one-quarter mile south. It has little effect on beach users. Meanwhile, adults and children alike walk along the roadside, only feet from commercial trucks thundering by. They wear swimsuits and carry towels and coolers, excited to spend a day at the beach – a day that, hopefully, doesn’t end in tragedy.

Cars and pickups crowd the roadside at Trestle Beach on a warm weekday. A parking area developed by the Port of St. Helens as a safer alternative to shoulder parking goes mostly unused.

ghostly novels for young readers Warren resident Penny Lockwood Ehrenkranz recently released two novels for grades four, five and six, “Ghost for Rent” and “Ghost for Lunch,” in a two-for-one edition titled “Ghostly Visions.” Wiles Wiles attracts ghosts, first in “Ghost for Rent,” when her parents separate and she, her brother, and mother move into a haunted house. The story begins in Portland. and quickly moves to small town Scappoose. Miserable at leaving her friends and beloved Portland behind, Wiles meets her neighbor Jennifer who tells her the house Wiles’ mom rented is haunted. After two of them appear to Wiles, the girls find themselves tracking down the mystery of who the ghosts are and why they “live” in the Wiles’ home. In “Ghost for Lunch,”

Wiles’s friend Jennifer moves away, leaving Wiles sad until new neighbors and their restaurant in St. Helens bring ghosts back into Wiles’ life. She, her brother, and their new friend discover the two cases are connected. Once again, the young sleuths use clues and lots of brainstorming to figure out who is haunting the restaurant. Set in the early 1990s, both books take the reader back to simpler times when kids researched information at the local library instead of searching on Google or looking it up on Wikipedia The author plans to donate copies to both St. Helens and Scappoose libraries, and is offering local residents signed copies for $11 plus shipping.

St. Helens River Festival Representatives speak out against oil trains returns this month For the first time in a number of years, a fullfledged community celebration “St. Helens River Festival” will return to the city this year. The St. Helens Kiwanis in conjunction with other service groups and sponsors are bringing back a festival to St. Helens on the traditional third weekend in June. The year’s “St. Helens River Festival” will be June 16-18, mostly on The Strand Street in the River District. The Kiwanis have also held a community parade for several decades, but it’s been a number of years since additional events have taken place in conjunction with it. The parade will be June 18, starting at noon. Parade entries may pre-register or register on the day of the parade at Emmert Motors on the lot side of Columbia Boulevard. The parade runs from Emmert Motors on Columbia Boulevard to and down First Street in the Riverfront District. Columbia River Fire & Rescue Chief Jay Tappan is Grand Marshal. The theme of the parade is “Celebrate Healthy Living.” The event has had several names over the years. Originally it was called St. Helions Days and that was changed to Port-O-Fun in the late 1960s. It was put on by the St. Helens Jaycees then. The event was moved to the former Olde Towne around 1979 and was held there for several years. Kiwanis took over the parade in 1989 and the Jaycees eventually disbanded. An attempt to revive the festival happened a few years ago under the name RiverFest, but that faltered. “We wanted to bring back the community flavor of

Port-O-Fun and RiverFest,” Event Chairman John Brewington said. “The Kiwanis were already doing a parade and we’re adding the carnival, street vendors, and beer garden with street dances. If it works well we’ll try and expand it in future years.” This year’s event will include a carnival provided by Davis Amusement, street dances on Friday and Saturday night will feature Stevie Marie and Jackson Road on Friday night, with The Wieners on Saturday night. The event will also incorporate the free Thursday “13 Nights on the River” into the event. The 13 Nights on the River performer is Slicker Band. “We feel it’s a great musical lineup,” Brewington added. “Both bands in the beer garden either live locally or have strong local ties. Stevie Marie Jackson is a Scappoose High grad. They are a country band. The Wieners are a classic rock band and have a good local following. We’re all very excited they agreed to perform for this festival revival.” The carnival will run Thursday, Friday and Saturday, from noon to midnight on Thursday, and from 11 a.m. to midnight on Friday and Saturday. The beer gardens will open around 4 p.m. each day, entertainment will start at 9 p.m. each evening and continue until midnight. Vendors with food, display, and other items for sale will run the same hours as the carnival. Sponsors for the event include Skinny’s, Hudson Garbage, Columbia River People’s Utility District, Ace Hardware, St. Helens Federal Community Credit Union, and Cascades.

Oregon’s Senators Jeff Merkley and Ron Wyden, as well as Governor Kate Brown and Representatives Earl Blumenauer and Suzanne Bonamici released a statement June 6, calling for a temporary halt to oil train traffic through the Columbia River Gorge in light of last Friday’s derailment of a Union Pacific oil train in Mosier, Ore. “Oil train tankers are still lying on their sides in Mosier, the ground and water have yet to be cleaned up, and there’s still no good explanation for the cause of Friday’s crash. It

is too soon to resume oil train traffic through the Columbia River Gorge. Union Pacific should not resume oil train traffic before meeting with the community of Mosier and giving a thorough explanation for the cause of this accident and an assurance that the company is taking the necessary steps to prevent another one. A train full of toxic crude oil derailing, burning, and exploding near homes, schools, and businesses is a worst fear realized for people who live in Mosier and in other communities

along the tracks throughout the Gorge. They deserve to know that the causes of this derailment have been both identified and fixed, and there should be a moratorium on oil train traffic until they get those explanations and assurances. We will also be pushing for the Department of Transportation to take a hard look at alternative routes for oil and hazardous material trains that would put fewer Oregonians at risk of a dangerous crash in their backyards,” read the statement. The lone company in

Columbia County shipping crude oil by rail, Global Partners, ceased transloading operations at Port Westward in January. It laid off 28 employees and stated at the time, reductions in staff were the “direct result of severe headwinds affecting the crude oil market and the corresponding decrease in crude oil transloading activities at the facility.” The price of crude oil has since rebounded to around $50 per barrel, but is still far below the high of nearly $110 per barrel the oil fetched in 2014.

Introducing the Scappoose Police Department

Over the next couple of weeks the Scappoose Police Department will be releasing bios on its members, helping the community gets to know each of them and a little bit of their background. The first to be introduced (and in no particular order) will be Sergeant Dennis Viereck. Dennis Viereck was born and raised in Allegany, N.Y. In 1994, Viereck graduated with honors from Allegany Central School and in the same year enlisted in the United States Army, where he served as a field artillery specialist stationed at the Schofield Barracks in Hawaii. Viereck was honorably discharged from the Army in 1997 and moved to Scappoose after marrying his wife. Viereck has a daughter who attends the Scappoose High School. Viereck began his law enforcement career with the Scappoose Police Department in 1998 when he was hired as a reserve police officer. He volunteered as a reserve police

officer with the department until being hired full-time in 2000 as a patrol officer.

In 2010 Viereck was promoted to the position of Patrol Sergeant, where he is currently serving. During Viereck’s tenure at the department, he has held the position of patrol officer, school resource officer (SRO), and patrol Sergeant. Viereck’s future goal with the department is to be promoted to the rank of Lieutenant and hopefully one day Chief of Police. In Viereck’s personal time he enjoys spending time with his family, attending dirt track car races, and playing video games.

From PAGE A1

Alvin Calvin Pihlaja 1925 ~ 2016 Alvin C. Pihlaja peacefully passed away, at the age of 90, in his home, May 9th, 2016. Al was born in Alberta, Canada, December of 1925, the only child of Ellen and Eino Pihlaja. He enjoyed a very active childhood in Minnesota where he managed to break both arms and both legs while engaged in various adventures. After two years of vocational high school for Electrical Studies, he entered the Navy where he served as an Electrician’s First Mate on a LST (Landing Ship, Tank) while it was active in the postPearl Harbor Asia-Pacific Theatre. After the war, Al returned to Minnesota where he worked a number of jobs, earned a GED, and attended Itasca Junior College in Coleraine. This was followed by a transfer to the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology in Rapid City, where, in 1951, he graduated with a BS in Electrical Engineering. During Al’s time in Rapid City, he met at a church gathering, one of the loves of his life, Aura, who attracted his eye by wearing “funny hats” and who he married prior to his graduation. Al worked for Westinghouse following graduation, as a maintenance professional responsible for some of the company’s heavy industrial equipment at installations throughout the Northeast and Midwest parts of the country, as well as Southeastern Canada. This required him to be away from home, initially Chicago, but later Minnesota, and a growing family (three children) for as much as a month at a time. This prompted a career change in 1959, when the family relocated to Denver, Colo., where Al had accepted a contract position with the Glen L. Martin Company, soon to become part of the Martin-Marietta Corporation. Here, Al was part of the team that designed some the electrical and mechanical systems enabling the launch of the Titan Two missile. Upon expiration of the contract

in 1964, Al traveled to Oregon with his family, now four children, to visit his mother who at the time was living near the Oregon Coast. While passing through Salem and having decided to enter the civilian workforce, he presented himself unannounced to the personnel department of the local Boise Cascade plant to inquire about job possibilities and was hired on the spot. Tragically, shortly after moving to Salem, Aura passed away due to melanoma. A further challenge occurred in December of 1964 when the large flood of that year swept through Al’s home. This was truly a difficult period for Al with the loss of his wife, home and possessions. However, four healthy children, his positive spirit and his sense of responsibility guided his way. In 1966, Al left Salem having accepted a transfer to the Boise Cascade plant located in St. Helens, Oregon. It was in St. Helens where Al met the second love of his life, Vianna. They were married in 1969. Now with six siblings in the family, the ensuing years were filled with a multitude of diverse activities revolving around their interests. Contributions to church and community were also a priority. In 1988, Al transitioned from Boise Cascade to a full and busy retirement. Early on, he, along with help from family

and friends, built a home on the beach in Ocean Park, Wash., where he and Vi would live full time. He traveled extensively and particularly enjoyed lengthy motor home trips around the United States. In1992, Al with Vi relocated to Portland where woodworking, golf and time with family were the staples of the day. He and Vi especially enjoyed building “family heirlooms” to give as Christmas gifts to their children and grandchildren. Vi passed in 2011, at which time Al’s health became less robust. Al was inquisitive and adventurous, never shy to try something new, be it a new activity or a new culinary dish. Interests throughout his life included his children’s activities, sailing, card games, photography, bowling, camping, square dancing, fishing, wine making and even international tropical fish judging to name a few. He was a great teacher, both by example and by instruction. Al was an engaging conversationalist, always having something interesting or witty to say. He possessed an uncommonly analytic mind, yet also demonstrated deep kindness and compassion. Al is preceded in death by his parents, his first wife, Aura; and his second wife, Vianna. He is survived by six children: Terry Nansen Malin (Brett); Laura Muehleck (Stephen); Graydon Pihlaja (Patti); Douglas Pihlaja (Gail Taylor); Hal Harwood, and Ron Harwood (Vicki), and special friend Doug Frost (Cindy). He is also survived by 13 grandchildren and 14 great grandchildren. A memorial service will be held at 1:30 p.m., June 23, 2016, at the Willamette National Cemetery in Portland followed by a reception from 3:30-6 p.m. at the Claremont Club House, 15800 NW Country Club Drive, Portland, OR 97229. In lieu of flowers, the family requests those so wishing to donate to a charity of their choice in memory of Alvin C. Pihlaja.

tion of asbestos-containing material and the release of petroleum-based fuel into the Columbia River. Jonak and Ison acquired the lease in 2012. The site included the River Queen, a derelict riverboat that once served as a restaurant in Portland. Since obtaining the lease, a total of 28 vessels in various states of disrepair have accumulated at the site. In addition to assessing the civil penalty, DEQ has ordered Jonak and Ison to correct the violations.

DEQ said it had previously requested they take corrective actions and Jonak and Ison have not complied with those requests. DEQ said it issued a penalty for solid waste violations because it is against the law to dispose of solid wastes anywhere except at a permitted disposal facility. The asbestos violations resulted from the asbestoscontaining materials in the vessels at the site have the potential to expose workers, tenants and the public to asbestos fibers. Asbestos is a hazardous air contami-

nant proven to cause lung cancer, mesothelioma and asbestosis. DEQ requires asbestoes to be abated and appropriately disposed of by a licensed asbestos abatement contractor. DEQ also issued the penalty resulting from the release of petroleum diesel fuel from a vessel that sank into the Columbia River. $56,677 of the civil penalty represents the economic benefit DEQ said Jonak and Ison gained by failing to properly dispose of identified asbestos-containing material. Jonak and Ison have until June 14 to appeal the penalty.

St. Helens Kung Fu wins at martial arts tournament Three Kung Fu students from St. Helens recently competed at the Pacific Rim Martial Arts Tournament, taking home five trophies for their efforts. The event took place at the Holiday Inn in Portland. Students Delstun McCray, Kyzia McCray, and Trenton McCray, representing St. Helens Kung Fu Club, are a fighting family and the impetus for the return of the club, which was closed for the past few years. Instructor Shaun Kennedy said his Kung Fu students are learning a mixture of Northern Shaolin Long Fist and Northern Praying Mantis. Kennedy studied Long Fist at the St. Helens Shaolin Kung Fu Club from 1994 until 2006, when he took over as head instructor. Along the way, he picked up two styles of Praying Mantis

as well as, oddly enough, Italian Renaissance-style fencing, folding all those elements into his own approach to teaching. “My primary concern as a martial arts teacher is the moral development of my students,” Kennedy said. “As a devout Christian, I supplemented the martial teachings with a curriculum of Biblical doctrine, focusing on the values of faith, hope, and charitable love.” After closing the club down in 2012 because of family health concerns, Kennedy continued to train just a handful of students privately. This past year, he decided to revive the club. Kennedy said part of the drive to return was his eager and talented students, particularly the McCrays. “These are the kind of students a teacher dreams of getting,” Kennedy said.

“They are dedicated to studying, and most of all, good people.” Kennedy said the personality of student is important because the skills he teacher could be abused if a student lacks discipline or morality. Unlike many sport-based martial arts, Kung Fu was designed to end fights quickly (and sometimes brutally). In fact, the combat-based nature of the art makes competing in tournaments a challenge at times because the student must adjust their techniques for sport application to avoid doing great harm to competitors. Classes at St. Helens Kung Fu Club cost $24.99 a month. The club meets at 5:30 p.m. at Columbia City Community Hall at 1805 2nd St. They also meet in McCormick Park during the summer when weather allows.

Marian Helen Harris October 12, 1914 ~ June 1, 2016 Marian was born in Parkrose, Ore., on October 12, 1914, to John and Lou (Northrop) Shoemaker, the fifth of six children. She received her wings on June 1, 2016, at her home in Scappoose, where she had lived 68 years. After graduating from Grant High School in 1932, she moved to Scappoose and attended business school in Portland, Ore. Marian met her future husband, James Harris, at the roller skating rink in St. Helens. They were married in her parents’ living room December 26, 1939, in Scappoose. Jim entered WWII in 1944, leaving Marian to raise their two boys on an enlisted man’s military pay. She supplemented her family income by working in the

family business. In 1963, she went to work for the Scappoose School District for 15 years as school district clerk. Marian most loved being with family. She also enjoyed gardening, sewing and cooking. She was preceded in death by her parents; brother, John;

sisters: Luella Hebieson, Margaret (Heller) Neuman and Ruth (Reed) DeGroot. She is survived by: her brother, Robert Shoemaker (Jeanne); four children: James (Willow), John (Candy), Virginia Harris, and Julie Vanorden; five grandchildren; eight great grandchildren and three great-great grandchildren. She was a kind and loving mother and will be missed by family and friends. Services will be held at 1 p.m. on Thursday, June 9, at the Columbia Funeral Home in St. Helens with a reception following the service. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations be made to Legacy Hospice. Private Interment will be at Willamette National Cemetery.

STATEMENT OF CHANGES IN ACTIVITIES and SOURCES OF FINANCING ** The General Fund budget was developed using resolution plan guidelines and priorities to allocate the available funds. Proposed revenues and other financing sources of $50,111,878 for 2016Ͳ17 represent an increase of about $1.4 million in funding, primarily due to an increase in the level of funding allocated by the Oregon Legislature to Oregon’s State School Fund, and an increase in local property tax revenues. An estimated 84% of revenue is attributable to the State School Fund formula. Proposed General Fund expenditures totaling $50,111,878 for 2016Ͳ17 represent an increase of $1.4 million over the prior year’s budget. The increase in Supporting Services is primarily due to increased staffing levels and increased equity professional development. The $1.1 million increase in transfers represents an increase in service credits which support our component districts. For fiscal year 2016Ͳ17, the proposed budget for the Special Revenue Fund of the Northwest Regional ESD is $57,788,774. About 38% of the revenue to support this fund is generated with state contracts and grants through ODE. The $14.6 million increase in Local Revenue and $12.4 million decrease in Transfers In is primarily due to a change in accounting for districts’ expenditures of ESD allocations. District allocations are transferred from the General Fund to each district’s individual Agency fund. Districts then pay for ESD services accounted for in the Special Revenue Funds. In the Enterprise Fund, revenues are expected to increase by $272 thousand as districts outside the region continue to request services from the Agency. This increase is reflected in the expenditure budgets for Supporting Services. In the Agency Fund,the $17.2 million increase in Transfers In represents ESD allocations for the two largest component districts. Their entire allocation will be transferred to their individual agency accounts from the General Fund, giving each district the option of buying ESD services or receiving a cash distribution.

St. Helens High School

SUCCESS STORIES

St. Helens High School and The Chronicle have partnered to highlight accomplishments of SHHS graduates. This is the latest installment of a regular feature in the paper. The idea was brought to The Chronicle by SHHS college and career readiness coordinator MJ Munger. Munger said the purpose of this section is to inform the community of what some alumni have accomplished since their time in St. Helens. “I set out to see what some of our alumni have accomplished and have been simply amazed to see all the ways St. Helens graduates are making the world a better place. Sharing those stories has boosted morale and lifted the spirits of our staff, who often never get to see what great things former students go on to do,” Munger said. “We want our teachers to know the potential of the students they’re teaching. We want our students to know all the different ways that the path to success can take and to be inspired to go after their own success.” This week’s featured graduate is:

Brendan Soule, SHHS class of 2003 Educational background: Soule studied at Oregon State University, graduating in December of 2007. He started as a general engineering major before moving to chemistry, new media communications, then finally geography. He graduated with a bachelor’s of science in geography with a certificate in Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Career: Soule currently is a GIS analyst at EDF renewable energy, where he prepares maps for renewable energy projects (large-scale wind and solar) across the United States and Canada. Soule currently works out of his home in Ventura, Calif., although EDF has offices around the US and Canada. What was the hardest challenge in your career preparation? How did you overcome it? College was a very different experience for me than high school – it’s much more self-driven and you are solely responsible for your own success. My first few terms were not as successful as I was used to as a result, and it took time for me to adjust. Once I realized that my success or failure was wholly dependent on me, I was able to take an active role in my education. I turned my focus from what I thought I should do (engineering) to what I wanted to do and what interested me (science, cultural issues, conservation and sustainability). Talking with advisors and professors was key to learning about new fields and the careers that go with them. A few classes and majors later, I took an introductory geography class that crystallized my interest in the physical and cultural world. What especially interesting or exciting thing did you do or learn during your training? My classes focused on GIS were especially

999

interesting to me. They showed me how data and location can be combined and analyzed to benefit many different industries and fields. What do you particularly enjoy about what you do? Renewable energy development is a very fast-paced and exciting field that directly benefits people and the environment. I really enjoy developing clean energy projects, knowing that my work contributes to solving a very real and present issue for us as a society. What’s the coolest thing for you about what you do? The coolest thing about what I do is my direct connection to providing a service that is a net benefit to our society. Clean energy is absolutely imperative for us to continue to thrive and progress, and I’m continually grateful to be a part of the industry. It’s a cool job. How did St. Helens help put you on the path to where you are now? St. Helens was a great place for me, big enough to provide opportunities for growth while being small enough to not feel lost in the crowd. I really enjoyed my science classes, learning about concepts and ideas that can be seen in real-world examples and experiments. Student government was really helpful to be involved in decisions made at the school, and track and field taught me how something can be awesome and excruciating at the same time. I do wish I had prepared myself more for the next steps after high school. Finding a field that interested me right away, learning about potential career paths, and identifying my strengths and weaknesses would have put me on an easier path than I took. Nobody has to be 100-percent positive about what they want to do with their life, but it helps to know where your interests lie.

scribed real property: Lot 3, Block 148, CITY OF ST HELENS, Columbia County, Oregon. COMMONLY KNOWN AS: 484 South 18th Street, St Helens, OR 97051. Both the beneficiary and the trustee have elected to sell the said real property to satisfy the obligations secured by said trust deed and a notice of default has been recorded pursuant to Oregon Revised Statutes 86.735(3); the default for which the foreclosure is made is grantor’s failure to pay when due the following sums: Monthly payments in the sum of $801.04, from May 1, 2015, and monthly payments in the sum of $795.86, from March 1, 2016, plus prior accrued late charges in the amount of $127.54, plus the sum of $774.58 for advances, together with all costs, disbursements, and/or fees incurred or paid by the beneficiary and/or trustee, their employees, agents or assigns. By reason of said default the beneficiary has declared all sums owing on the obligation that the trust deed secures immediately due and payable, said sum being the following, to-wit: $63,419.37, together with accrued interest in the sum of $4,809.35 from May 1, 2016, together with interest thereon at the rate of 7% per annum from May 2, 2016, plus prior accrued late charges in the amount of $127.54, plus the sum of $2,065.60 for advances, together with all costs, disbursements, and/or fees incurred or

paid by the beneficiary and/or trustee, their employees, agents or assigns. WHEREFORE, notice hereby is given that the undersigned trustee will on September 26, 2016, at the hour of 11:00 AM PT, in accord with the standard time established by ORS 187.110, at the front entrance to the Columbia Courthouse Annex (immediately west of the Old Columbia County Courthouse), located at 230 Strand Street, in the City of St. Helens, County of Columbia, State of Oregon, sell at public auction to the highest bidder for cash the interest in the said described real property which the grantor has or had power to convey at the time of the execution of said trust deed, together with any interest which the grantor or his successors in interest acquired after the execution of said trust deed, to satisfy the foregoing obligations thereby secured and the costs and expenses of sale, including a reasonable charge by the trustee. Notice is further given to any person named in ORS 86.778 that the right exists, at any time that is not later than five days before the date last set for the sale, to have this foreclosure proceeding dismissed and the trust deed reinstated by paying to the beneficiary of the entire amount due (other than such portion of the principal as would not then be due had no default occurred) and by curing any other default complained of herein

that is capable of being cured by tendering the performance required under the obligations or trust deed, and in addition to paying said sums or tendering the performance necessary to cure the default, by paying all costs and expenses actually incurred in enforcing the obligation and trust deed, together with trustee’s fees and attorney’s fees not exceeding the amounts provided by said ORS 86.778. Notice is further given that reinstatement or payoff quotes requested pursuant to ORS 86.786 and ORS 86.789 must be timely communicated in a written request that complies with that statute, addressed to the trustee’s “Reinstatements/Payoffs - ORS 86.786” either by personal delivery or by first class, certified mail, return receipt requested, to the trustee’s address shown below. Due to potential conflicts with federal law, persons having no record legal or equitable interest in the subject property will only receive information concerning the lender’s estimated or actual bid. Lender bid information is also available at the trustee’s website, www.shapiroattorneys.com/wa. In construing this notice, the masculine gender includes the feminine and the neuter, the singular includes the plural, the word “grantor” includes any successor in interest to the grantor as well as any other person owing an obligation, the performance of which is secured by said trust deed,

and the words “trustee” and “beneficiary” include their respective successors in interest, if any. Also, please be advised that pursuant to the terms stated on the Deed of Trust and Note, the beneficiary is allowed to conduct property inspections while property is in default. This shall serve as notice that the beneficiary shall be conducting property inspections on the said referenced property. Without limiting the trustee’s disclaimer of representations or warranties, Oregon law requires the trustee to state in this notice that some residential property sold at a trustee’s sale may have been used in manufacturing methamphetamines, the chemical components of which are known to be toxic.

River City drivers brave the heat for series’ second race BY MIKE WEBER For The Chronicle

ST. HELENS — Following consecutive cancelled races (rained out May 14 and 21), River City Speedway finally was able to hold its second stock car race of the season with the June 4 event. Drivers who enjoyed a successful day on the track and captured Columbia County Racing Association main event wins included Damion Owen, Pam Graham, Ray Elwess, Scott McMullen, Dennis Liebig, Mike Opoka and Hunter Gollyhorn. Elwess of Gresham started on the pole position in the 10-car Sportsman Division main and led from start to finish to take the checkered flag in his Chevrolet Camaro. Rainier’s Sean Fox, who won the May 7 opener, took second in his Chevy Monte

Carlo. Fox, who leads the division point standings, was the fastest qualifier (15.15 seconds) on the quarter-mile clay oval track. He won the six-lap heat race. “I had such a tough time with the car in qualifying and the heat race, so I’m just really surprised that I was able to win the main,” said Elwess, who was runner-up to Fox on May 7. “I made some adjustments and then when I got out in the main, it was really running a lot better. I worked all night on the car on Friday to get it prepared and I was really hoping to win the main. It sure was a good race with Sean, who was right behind me. We’ve been racing together for a long time and I’ve always enjoyed racing with his dad (Dan) too, so we both have lots of respect for each other.” For the second straight race, a McMullen family

member won the Street Stock main event. Scott McMullen of St. Helens drove his 1979 Chevy Malibu to victory in the 30-lap main event. McMullen’s son Justin, 26, won the May 7 opener and took second place to Scott on Saturday. “We had a pretty good day and you couldn’t ask for a better race than for us to have a one-two finish in the main event,” said Scott McMullen, 44, who also won the trophy dash. “After the first race, I made some changes in the suspension and I changed the tires, which really helped improve the car a lot. If we have a few more days like today, then we’ll be looking pretty good shape in the division standings.” Scott McMullen started third in the 16-car main and he moved in front on lap 18 after passing early leaders Randy Nutting and Gary

Kordosky Jr. McMullen led the remaining 12 circuits to capture the victory with Justin in second, followed by Bernie Lujan, Mike Crase and Nutting. Justin McMullen, the defending champion, set the fast time in qualifying at 16.19 seconds. Greg Brumbaugh and Chuck Andrus Jr. won the heat races. In the Dwarf Car Division, Dennis Liebig recorded an impressive sweep with victories in the dash, heat and main. Shawn Dorie of St. Helens took second. “There were 16 cars in the main, which is the most we’ve had in a long time and it was a good clean race,” said Andrew Andexler, 25, of St. Helens who is seeking to win a second straight CCRA Dwarf Car Division title. “It sure was a lot of fun and it was definitely more of a challenge to have a larger group of drivers in the race.

There’s a lot of good drivers in the class this year, so it’s going to be a little tougher to win the title, but we’ll see what happens at the end of the season.” Owen from Vernonia won the 16-car Four-Cylinder Division A main event. A total of 24 drivers entered the race, which represented one of the highest numbers of cars in the series in recent years at the track. John Gartner took second. Bob Berg of St. Helens was the fastest qualifier at 16.11. Scheibel took the checkered flag in the trophy dash. Opoka from Vancouver recorded a sweep in the Pacific Mini Sprint Division. Opoka drove his open wheel winged sprint car to victories in the dash, heat and main. Gresham’s Vinny Villeggiante notched the fast time of 14.18 seconds and he

also took second place in all three events while driving an identical looking sprint car owned by Opoka. Graham of Portland, won the Modified Division main event, followed by a trio of Vancouver drivers with Matt Jenner in second and Aaron Elwess in third. Elwess had the top qualifying time at 14.98 seconds. Brandon Potter of St. Helens was a twotime winner as he captured the dash and heat race. Gollyhorn, 16, the defending Tracer Division champion, had a sweep while driving his 1976 Chevy Camaro to victories in the main event, dash and heat race. Gollyhorn of Scappoose also had the fast time in qualifying at 16.40 seconds. A total of over 80 drivers participated on June 4. The third race is the June 18 Fan Appreciation Night $25 carload event.

3A State Finals: Rainier 5, Dayton 4

PETE CHRISTOPHER / The Oregonian

The Rainier Columbians celebrate after winning the 2016 OSAA 3A State Championship at Oregon State University on June 3.

STATE TITLE RETURNS TO RAINIER BY KYLE BOGGS kboggs@countrymedia.net

CORVALLIS — Rainier’s run of excellence on the softball diamond continued on June 3. When it comes to 3A Oregon softball, the Columbians have owned the middle part of this decade. On a sunny Friday afternoon at Oregon State University, the team hoisted

the trophy for the third time in the last four seasons. The third-ranked Columbians (24-6, 12-0) held off a late-inning surge from the No. 1 Dayton Pirates (27-4, 10-0) to take a 5-4 win. With the victory, Rainier becomes the first public school to win three titles in a four-year span since Crater High School took three straight 5A titles from 2007-09. The Columbians staked their

SOFTBALL

lead from the outset of the game, scoring three runs in the top of the first inning, then adding a fourth in the second. Junior Kami Gray kicked off the first-inning rally with a one-out single. Senior Sarah Probasco followed by reaching on error. The two of them both came around to score on a single from junior Julia Taylor coupled by a throwing error from the Pirates. Senior Megan

Hackenberg’s two-out RBI double scored Taylor. In the second, Gray sent a two-out double to center field that brought freshman Kyla Howell in to score. Howell led off the inning with a single. Rainier stretched its lead to 5-0 in the top of the fourth inning. Howell again led off the inning, this time getting hit by a pitch. After junior Haley Schimmel sac-

rificed her over to second, Howell scored on sophomore Aspen Norman’s RBI base hit. That would be all the scoring the Columbians needed in the game – but just barely. Schimmel shut the Pirates down in the first four innings, striking out nine of the possible 12 outs. The Pirates started to rally in the See RAINIER, Page A14

St. Helens’ All-State duo hits .500 during 5A All-Star series BY KYLE BOGGS kboggs@countrymedia.net

EUGENE — St. Helens High School’s two All-State softball players had the chance to play on a field not yet three months old over the weekend. Senior center fielder Ashley Giesbers, voted to the 5A AllState first team, and senior catcher Taylor Leal, voted to the All-State second team, represented the North Team in Oregon’s 5A All-Star doubleheader. The two games were played at the University of Oregon’s Jane Sanders Stadium, a state of the art facility that opened its doors for the first time on March 24. “It was awesome,” said St. Helens head coach Miranda Little.

Leal had the tough task of being the only catcher on the team for the doubleheader on a day in which Eugene temperatures reached 94 degrees. She hit well in the first game, finishing 2-for-3 with a double and an RBI. The coaching staff opted to hit someone in her place in the second game to provide some relief from the heat. Giesbers, meanwhile, was on the field as often as possible. She was 2-for-5 at the plate. She also tallied four of the team’s six stolen bases without getting caught once. Whenever the North coaches were able, they inserted Giesbers as a pinch runner to try swiping an extra base or two. She finished the series with three runs scored. Giesbers was named first-team See ALL-STARS, Page A14

SCAPPOOSE — For the second straight season, Banks and McLoughlin squared off for the 4A Softball State Championship. The third-ranked Banks Braves (22-3, 14-1) eliminated the No. 2 Scappoose Indians (24-5, 13-2) in the semifinals on May 31. It’s the second year in a row Banks has ended Scappoose’s season after beating the Indians in the 2015 quarterfinals. Banks won, 7-3. The Braves’ pitchers were able to quiet the potent Indian bats during the Tribe’s final game of the season. Scappoose, which finished the season with a team batting average of .398, managed six hits against Banks. Three of those came from sophomore Hannah Galey. “I think we were just overthinking it. We knew all of their pitchers, besides the first one they pulled up from JV because they know we have a tough time with slower pitching,” Galey said. “Just the fact that it’s Banks: We lost to them twice and it just got in our heads. We were trying too hard and not just playing our game.” Galey scored all three SHS runs. She doubled in the bottom of the second inning, stole third and scored on a squeeze bunt from senior Kendal Bailey. By that point, Banks had scored four runs. The Braves pushed across three runs in the first inning. Cowapa League Player of the Year MaKenna Partain hit a solo home run in the second. Galey made it a 4-2 game with a solo home run in the bottom of the fourth inning. It was her 13th home run of the season, setting a new SHS single-season record.

KYLE BOGGS / The Chronicle Scappoose sophomore Hannah Galey gets a Snickers from coach CiJay Koler on May 31 after breaking the school’s single-season home run record.

The previous record was 12, set by Lexi Courtney and tied by Galey last year. “Hannah finally settled down. I mean, we just have to constantly remind her that she doesn’t have to hit home runs. Really all we need is base hits from her,” said SHS coach CiJay Koler. “Once she settles down, there’s no stopping her. She was just in the zone.” The score stayed the same until the top of the sixth inning, when Partain struck again. The Banks senior – named 4A Player of the Year following her freshman and junior seasons – lifted a three-run

home run to center field, making it 7-2. “On the first one, it was like all right, it’s nothing – we can come back,” Galey said. “That one was a stab in the heart.” Galey doubled again in the sixth inning. After moving to third on a passed ball, senior Sage Harrison drove her in with a sacrifice fly. Bailey was able to shut the Braves down in the seventh, but the Indians were unable to stage a rally in their final turn at bat. “We really wanted it. We wantSee SCAPPOOSE, Page A15

Scappoose teams are recognized for grades A handful of Scappoose High School’s spring sports teams had grade point averages among the highest in the state of Oregon. The girls track team at SHS ranked third in the state at the 4A classification, putting together a GPA of 3.75. The Indians’ baseball team had the third-best team GPA out of the 4A teams in Oregon this spring. The group GPA was 3.51.

The softball team accumulated a GPA of 3.52, earning the No. 7 spot on the 4A softball list. The Tribe’s boys track and field team tied for ninth place among 4A teams, posting a GPA of 3.36. Scappoose’s choir was also recognized for its academics. The choir’s accumulative GPA of 3.33 ranked seventh among 4A programs.

ALL-STARS: South wins both games From PAGE A13 All-State after putting together a senior season in which she batted .411, stole 40 bases and scored 32 runs. She had five doubles – ranking third on the team – despite primarily slap-hitting. Her .923 fielding percentage trailed only Leal among SHHS starters. Leal did not make an error all season behind the plate for the Lions. When she was at the plate, she was a force –

hitting .522 with 15 doubles, three triples and three home runs. She knocked in 21 RBIs and scored 26 runs. That put her on the 5A AllState second team. The North lost both games to the South Team by scores of 17-7 and 8-5. But that doesn’t erase the experience of playing in the brand new, $17.2 million stadium. It has a capacity of 2,500. The field is artificial turf with a real dirt infield. There is a video board in right field.

The 2016 Derek Anderson Football Camp will be held at Scappoose High School on June 18 from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. Joining Anderson as one of the camp instructors this year is his Carolina Panthers teammate and fellow former Indian, David Mayo. They’ll be assisted by other former and current SHS players and Scappoose coaches. Those instructors will run campers through a variety of drills and provide instruction so campers will have a better understanding of the skills, techniques and terminology
