Oregon sheds outdoor mask mandate O

Zoe Gottlieb Country Media

regonians are no longer required to mask up outdoors, effective immediately, according to Oregon Health Authority (OHA).

On Tuesday, Nov. 23, OHA Director Patrick Allen, Health Officer and State Epidemiologist Dr. Dean Sidelinger, and Oregon Department of Education Director Colt Gill briefed the media on the latest COVID-19 protocols, including a lifting of Oregon’s formerly-issued outdoor mask mandate.

On Aug. 11, Gov. Kate Brown expanded the mask mandate to include outdoor settings, effective Aug. 13, following a dramatic rise in COVID-19 case counts and hospitalizations.

“This rule was implemented back in August at the peak of the most recent surge,” OHA Director Patrick Allen said. “This (new) decision, which takes effect immediately, reflects the overall progress we’ve seen

on the COVID-19 threat in Oregon.”

Allen attributes the changes to what OHA sees as promising developments in terms of the number of COVID cases, hospitalizations, and vaccination rates.

“Over the past six weeks, we’ve continued to see a slow but steady decline in hospitalizations and daily cases. Our seven-day moving average of new cases as of yesterday was 822. On September 1, in the teeth of this current surge, that average was 2285,” he said. “That’s a 64% decrease.”

Allen also said ICU bed counts and the number of patients hospitalized with COVID-19 are trending downward, prompting OHA to ease up on restrictions.

Allen said a lower daily case count, less hospitalizations, and high vaccination rates are all signs Oregon is moving in the right direction, but he stipulates OHA does not have any plans to remove the indoor mask mandate, keeping in mind the rapid transmission of the Delta variant.

Allen said a bad flu season kills 600 Oregon in a year, while COVID-19 claimed over 5000 as of Nov. 22.

Allen continues to recommend mask wearing for the unvaccinated, elderly and the immunecompromised, people are high risk

Oregon preparing to spend infrastructure windfall W

“Although the COVID-19 landscape has markedly improved, we are not yet at a point where we can consider relaxing the guidelines on wearing masks in indoor public settings,” he said. “The Delta variant remains a significant threat to all of us and especially to the one in five Oregonians who are vulnerable to the disease.”

Allen said lifting the indoor mask mandate and transitioning from a pandemic mode to an end-demic mode depends on several factors including the trajectory of cases, the Delta variant, and less hospitalizations.

“We’re going to need to be at a place where we have much less transmission of disease, much less hospitalization. We’re still sitting at over 90% of hospital beds full, same thing with ICU beds. A large portion of those ICU beds occupied by largely unvaccinated people. We need to get out of this phase and get to something that looks a lot more like the flu.”

ith the bipartisan infrastructure package now signed into law, Oregon is preparing to spend the extra funding coming its way.

Last week, the Oregon Department of Transportation discussed the new funding and what it is expected to be spent on.

Travis Brouwer, assistant director for revenue, finance and compliance, said the money will make a big difference in the state, especially in the more crowded metro areas.

“It’s truly historic in size and scope,” Brouwer said. “That’s for all types of infrastructure, everything from wastewater and water to broadband and transportation and other areas of infrastructure as well.”

Brouwer said not all the money in the package is new money, but he said there will be a lot of new funding as well as $100 billion set aside in a discretionary fund that will be doled out via grants.

“We are all going to be getting our grant writing pens out and spending a lot of time trying to bring additional money back to Oregon,” Brouwer said. “This is one of known unknowns. With that much money on the table, we know there are going to be opportunities, but we don’t know how much money Oregon will bring home.”

Brouwer said traditionally Oregon receives 1% of federal funding, which would bring an additional $1 billion to the state.

Some of the projects being eyed with the discretionary money is interstate work around Portland as well as major bridge repairs in the state.

Brouwer said the package funds the traditional highway funding the state receives for five year and adds $1.2 billion for transportation repairs and $200 million for public transportation.

Exactly where the money is going to be spent has not been decided yet, but Brouwer said those deci-

of contracting the disease and people living with someone in one of those categories.

Allen also issued a recommendation for school districts to transition from lengthy quarantines to a test-tostay option for students exposed to COVID-19.

Tillamook County begins process of updating land use ordinance T

Hilary Dorsey Staff Writer

illamook County Board of Commissioners initiated Wednesday, Nov. 24, the amendment process for the updates to the Tillamook County Land Use Ordinance. This is the green light for community development to start the public review process on the amendments.

Sarah Absher, director of community development, said there has been a work plan in place for the past couple of years that has included updates to the ordinance, as well as other items that address Tillamook County’s housing crisis.

One of the updates is amending the rural residential two-acre zone to allow for an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) on a property.

“There are some benchmarks and some development standards that will be tethered to properties to determine eligibility for an ADU,” Absher said. “Those will be reflected in the ordinance amendment for the rural residential two acre zone.”

Another amendment would be bringing back a proposal for an ADU ordinance that would apply to unincorporated communities of the county, Absher added. Oceanside is in talk of potentially incorporating. The first step is to hold two hearings in January and February.

“They have a series of proposals they would like

to go before you for consideration and adoption,” Absher said.

Absher and Commissioner Erin Skaar have been taking a closer look at county Ordinance 85.

“It is the county ordinance that is for short-term rental operator license fees,” Absher said. “This ordinance was adopted at the end of 2020. We had an opportunity to now put the ordinance to test.”

Absher said there are a few things that require additional attention and potential amendment.

“I’d like to reopen the fee determination portion of Ordinance 85 and propose an alternative method and bring that back to you by the end of this year,” Absher said.

Absher and Skaar met with the Oregon Restaurant & Lodging Association and talked with them about other possible ways to figure the fee.

Absher said there are a lot of important ticket items in terms of updates.

“You will not see all of those things at once but they will be trickling through from the end of this year probably through the spring of 2022,” Absher said of the various amendments.

The commissioners approved the text amendment request. Absher will begin scheduling and prioritizing those tasks.

illamook County Health Department reported during a community update call with the county Tuesday, Nov. 23, four COVID-19 cases over the weekend from Nov. 19 through Nov. 21 and 25 cases for the 7-day case count from Nov. 14 through Nov. 20.

“Our 14-day case count was 68,” Emergency Preparedness Coordinator Ed Colson said. “That’s from Nov. 7 through Nov. 20.”

During the month of November from Nov. 1 through Nov. 23, 137 new COVID-19 cases were tracked in Tillamook County.

The county is now at 45 COVID-19 deaths. Three new COVID-related deaths were reported this week. Of the total deaths, 36 individuals were unvaccinated, eight were fully vaccinated and one had no vaccine record.

“We have one confirmed outbreak, 12 pending investigation, for a total of 13 under monitoring,” Colson said.

Oregon Health Authority confirmed an outbreak as of Wednesday, Nov. 24, at Tillamook County Creamery Association with 22 cases.

COVID-19 testing remains available at the health center’s acute care clinic, located at 2111 8th St. in Tillamook.

The clinic is open 1-5 p.m. Monday through Friday and appointments are required. Call 503-842-3900 to schedule an appointment. Rinehart Clinic and Adventist Health also have testing available.

“When it comes to COVID-19, booster shots are available now,” Colson said. “Now that they’ve been approved, boosters are available for all adults 18 and older six months after their completion of the Pfizer of Moderna series and two months after the completion of the single-dose Johnson & Johnson.”

Pfizer for youth ages 5-11 are approved and available in Tillamook County. Parental consent is required for anyone 14 years of age and younger.

Vaccines are available at the health center’s walk-in clinic, regular health care offices and local pharmacies.

The health center’s walk-in clinic is open from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays at the Tillamook County Fairgrounds Convention Center.

The outdoor mask mandate has ended, although the health department strongly encourages people to wear masks when outdoors in crowded areas and for people who are immune-compromised and people not yet vaccinated.

Masks are still required in all indoor public spaces, regardless of vaccination status.

Dirk Alan bringing his one man band to Kitty’s in Dec. Music on the bill all month

Joe Warren jwarren@countrymedia.net

T

illamook is in for a treat in December at Kitty’s Food and Spirits, the areas leader in live entertainment, when Dirk Alan’s one man band comes to town for four shows.

Alan will bring his popular brand of cover tunes to Tillamook Tuesday Dec. 7, Sat. Dec. 10, Tuesday Dec. 14 and one more performance on Sat. Dec. 17. All shows are from 7 to 10 p.m. and you better get reservations, because seats will fill up quickly for this venue.

Alan, who is an engineer by day has been playing music for over 40 years. He currently lives in Portland and plays venues all over the Northwest.

“I work remotely, so I’m able to play music at night and on the weekends,” he said. “I play everything from Merle Haggard to Led Zeppelin and everything inbetween, everything everyone knows and loves.”

Alan has played in bands, but the last few years he’s been going out on his own as a one man band.

“I do a solo act on the side and still work with bands that need a bass or guitar player here and there,” he said. “I enjoy my solo act because I record all the backing tracks in my studio – they’re all me, then when I go out and play live, it sounds like a full band.”

Dirk Alan. Courtesy photo By being able to do this, he can tweak the music to the gig he’s playing while getting his fans involved in the show.

“I design it to the crowd or the venue, ‘interactive’ meaning I take a box of rhythm instruments, tambourines and stuff, and get everybody playing and singing with me,” He said. “Anybody that wants to come up and play can join right in, It’s a family thing and it works anywhere, and

I have a very well-thought out song list pretty much designed for the baby boomers.

It’s a lot of fun.”

Many musicians have inspired Alan, and he’s played with several bands before going out on his own.

He plays both acoustical and electric guitar, and also has a wide range of music he loves to bring to the stage.

Let me just start out with saying Django, Chet Atkins, Mark Knopfler, Billy Gibbons, and Albert Lee, to name a few – I’m an old school ‘70s, early ‘60s guy” Alan said.

“Thank God for my parents listening to Chet Atkins’ stuff.

It was really inspiring, and now he’s like a god. I guess my stylings would be coined from bits and pieces of all those players.”

Alan has been to Tillamook before, and admits he loves the coast.

“A couple of summers ago I played here with a country band at the Air Museum and I also played a couple of shows in 2011,” Alan said. “I love the coast and can’t wait to come back.”

For more information about Dirk Alan, check out his website: dirkalanmusic. com More Music all month Joel Baker owner of Kitty’s and front man in the Joel Baker Band has much more music slated for the month.

On Sat. Dec. 18 from 7:30 to 11 p.m. and on New Year’s Eve on Friday Dec. 31 from 8 p.m. to Midnight, Scott White of the Jim Messie Band will play bass and vocals, Ruakē VanderVeer of the popular Lugnuts will join the Joel Baker Band on guitar and vocals and Baker will take center stage on drums and vocals for two nights of music and dancing.

The Joel Baker Band will also be playing Kitty’s in December with shows scheduled for Sat. Dec. 4th and Sat Dec. 11th. Joel will be joined by Scott Casey on guitar, vocals and keyboard and Doc on bass. These shows are from 7:30 to 11 p.m.

Police services continue at Oswald West, Nehalem Bay State Park Hilary Dorsey Staff Writer

Manzanita City Council on Wednesday, Nov. 3, approved an intergovernmental agreement with Oregon Parks and Recreation District (OPRD) for police services. The agreement provides police services to Oswald West and Nehalem Bay State Park.

“This will provide services to Oswald West and Nehalem Bay State Park for fiscal years 22 and 23,” City Manager Leila Aman said. “We’ve been providing these services to OPRD since 1998.”

According to the staff report, the last contract expired in June. OPRD informed the city that they needed additional time to revise the contracting method to comply with state contracting law. The result is the intergovernmental agreement.

Aman said the agreement is $27,500 per year for fiscal year 2022 and fiscal year 2023 for a total of $55,000. The city also receives revenue tom citations issued. Last year, an estimated $23,000

was generated from citations for the city.

The contract calls for seven hours of patrolling per week during the high season from June through August and four hours per week from September through May. “We have agreements with Wheeler and Nehalem,” Aman said. “Those were approved I think back in May, executed in June.”

The city will update the agreement in two years, Aman added.

Manzanita Police Chief Erik Harth said the department keeps a time sheet for how many hours they spend in the state park, which is billed at the end of the year.

“We look at the final hours per year and make sure we’re at that amount,” Harth said.

Harth added that Oregon State Police is the primary agency for emergency calls in those parks and the police department is a supplemental service.

Tillamook Kiwanis Club completes fifth annual diaper drive The Kiwanis Club of Tillamook just completed their fifth annual Tillamook County Diaper Drive. Every year during the month of October, the Kiwanis Club of Tillamook holds a donation event to provide diapers and wipes to supply the Tillamook County Healthy Family

Team. This year our goal was to supply Healthy Families with 3500 Diapers for use throughout the year. We far exceeded our goal this year with over 4600 diapers and over 3000 wipes provided.

Healthy Families is supported by Community Action Resource Team (CARE) in

Tillamook County. Healthy Families is a non-profit voluntary family support and home visiting program that focuses on strengthening the parent-child relationship to assure healthy growth and development. The diapers are used to support families in need.

n Oregon Continued from Page A1 sions will be made quickly.

“The Oregon Transportation Commission is going to be working fairly quickly in order to get this money out the door to projects,” he said.

“Normally, whenever we do our statewide transportation improvement program, from the time the commission allocates funding among programs to the time we actually get the project out the door, we have about four years. This go around, we have about four months. This federal funding is use-it-or-

lose-it. If you don’t use it in the fiscal year, you lost it. We don’t want to do that.”

One are that will be a focus is repairing the state’s aging bridge infrastructure. Brouwer said the additional funding for bridges is desperately needed.

“Badges have been the single largest area of investment in the bill,” he said. “That’s a good thing. We know that we have significant needs on the state’s bridges. The majority of ODOT’s bridges are over 50 years old, and that’s about the age you would expect them to be headed toward retirement.”

Brouwer said there are 2,800 bridges in the state highway system, and Oregon

traditionally replaces three a year.

An additional $200 million will come to Oregon for public transportation, but Brouwer said almost all of it will be for Portland, Salem and Eugene since they have the largest public transportation systems. Other communities will have an opportunity to gets grants to make improvements.

Before final decisions are made, the transportation commission will host public meetings during which time the public will be permitted to comment on how the money should be spent. He said a meeting in January will give time for public comment.

Dollar Tree raises prices to $1.25 for most items Staff Report

Dollar Tree has kept prices at $1 for 35 years but that is soon changing. The company announced Tuesday, Nov. 23, it will shift to a $1.25 price point for a majority of its items at all stores nationwide by the end of the first quarter of 2022.

“We have begun rolling out the $1.25 price point at all Dollar Tree stores nationwide,” Michael Witynski, president and chief executive officer of Dollar Tree, said in a press release. “The continuing expansion of our key strategic initiatives, including Dollar Tree Plus, Combo Stores and the H2 format, are all going well and on, or ahead of, plan.

I am very proud of our team’s efforts – especially those in our stores and distribution centers – to serve our customers by delivering incredible value on everyday products.”

In the press release, Dollar Tree states they believe it is the appropriate time to shift

away from the constraints of the $1 price point in order to continue offering “extreme value to customers.” The decision is permanent and not a reaction to short-term or transitory market conditions.

According to the company, the new price point will allow the reintroduction of customer

favorites that were previously discontinued due to the constraints of the $1 price point.

In September, Dollar Tree announced its plan to add additional price points above $1 to all Dollar Tree Plus Stores on a test-and-learn basis to selected legacy Dollar Tree stores.

teve and Karen Walz were out fishing for late fall fish in Tillamook Bay. They saw lots of wildlife, but caught no salmon this time around. Buffleheads and numerous other ducks, bald eagles and sandpipers kept the Walzes company. The sandpipers were “least sandpipers” (calidris minutilla), the smallest of the sandpipers, also called “Peeps.” Peeps settle on the banks of the river or on the beach; they blend in and you can’t see them until they suddenly take flight. A sturgeon jumped up and gave Karen the “fish eye” as they trolled past Memaloose boat launch. Steve wonders why we don’t have sturgeon reten-

tion days in Tillamook Bay, as they do in the Columbia River. Any answer, readers?

Big news: The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has awarded the contract for the construction of the Cape Meares Loop Road to M.A. DeAtley Con-

struction. According to Chris Laity, Tillamook County Director of Public Works, tree falling will occur this winter to avoid impacts to the marbled murrelet. Construction will begin in the spring of 2022 and is expected to be finished by late summer 2023. FHWA announced that John Henderson will be the project engineer, and that he has taken residence in the Oceanside-Netarts area.

Henderson will prepare and distribute weekly project newsletters; these newsletters will be available to the public at https://www.co.tillamook. or.us/publicworks/page/county-road-department.

I mentioned sea turtles in a

recent column. That brought a call from one of the Fencepost writers’ favorite readers, Pat Patterson. Pat, a WWII veteran who is almost 100 years old, worked at Edmonds Fish and Crab Company in Garibaldi back in the 1950s.

He was there when a commercial fishing vessel brought in a giant sea turtle. They hung it on a big scale and the beast weighed 900 pounds! Its head was the size of a gallon bucket. The dead sea turtle remained on display at the plant for some time; it was an amazing sight.

A correction about the two dead owls recently found on our beach: I spoke with Wendy Burroughs, colloqui-

ally called “The Dead Bird Lady” from her environmental education career in Arizona (among other duties, she helped officials determine what a bird had died from).

She had had an opportunity to examine both dead owls and found no sign of injury, such as from a bird of prey.

She suggests, instead, that their demise was perhaps due to poisoning. Rat poison left out around your home may inadvertently poison other animals. Thank you, Wendy, for sharing your expertise.

A neighbor and I attended the Christmas bazaar recently held at the Tillamook Fairgrounds. What a lot of talents folks have! Colored

tiles, wood-burned signs, cute baby blankets, oceanthemed furnishings, woven clothing…it was an amazing display of handiwork. I am looking forward to attending a few more bazaars before the holiday season is over.

It’s an anniversary! CARE, Tillamook County’s homegrown, locally controlled, non-profit social services agency that helps the indigent in our community, is celebrating its 30th anniversary.

GUEST COLUMN

Secure Rural Schools Payments assured for three more years T

hanks to Senator Wyden The Association of O&C Counties (AOCC) today publicly praised the hard work of Senator Ron Wyden in connection with the Secure Rural Schools and Community Self-Determination Act (SRS). SRS was reauthorized as part of the $1.2 trillion 2021 Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act signed by President Biden this week.

“The SRS provisions in the much larger Infrastructure bill originated in the Senate with great bipartisan support and Senator Wyden as the lead sponsor. Senator Wyden made sure that SRS was included in the Infrastructure bill and that it stayed there throughout the difficult Congressional negotiations. Without his efforts, SRS would have been sidelined and counties and schools would have come up short,” said Commissioner Tim Freeman of Douglas

County, AOCC’s President.

Douglas County receives the largest share of SRS payments in the nation due to the vast amount of O&C lands and National Forest lands in the County and the overwhelming timber dependence of the local economy.

Over 700 counties in 40 states rely on SRS funding to pay for vital county services.

The reauthorization assures payments for three more years, through federal fiscal year 2023. AOCC worked directly with Senator Wyden’s staff in a supporting role through the reauthorization process and saw firsthand the Senator’s commitment to counties. AOCC represents the interest of its member counties in connection with the 2.4 million acres of historic O&C lands, located only in 18 counties in Western Oregon.

“Not everyone loves the Infrastructure bill but without a doubt every

receiving county appreciates SRS payments” said Rocky McVay, AOCC’s Executive Director. “AOCC’s members are particularly reliant on SRS, since it is intended as a temporary safety net in partial replacement for lost revenues from shared timber harvest receipts. We suffered more from those losses than anyone, anywhere. Until we get back on our feet with better forest management, SRS provides some financial stability for counties struggling to provide adequate levels of public services” said McVay. “The reauthorization of SRS funding is a big win for AOCC’s member counties and our residents. It is very welcome news and Senator Wyden has our gratitude” stated Commissioner Tim Freeman.

ast week was Thanksgiving and the library staff wants you to know how thankful we are for each and every one of our patrons.

In fact, we are so thankful that we have decided to give back a little something to you! What is this gift?

It is something quite a few of you have been asking for. More open hours at our branch libraries!

While the main library in Tillamook already expanded their hours recently, each of the branches are now increasing their hours, too.

Why? Do you remember when you filled out our annual survey and you indicated you would like to have morning hours at the branches? Well, I am proud to say, we listened! And thanks also to some of you

Have you started your Christmas Shopping yet?

who took the time to phone us or drop by to say you wished the branches were open on Saturdays again, because you got your wish in that regard as well!

Starting this week, we have a brand new schedule at our five branch libraries. First of all, the libraries in Rockaway Beach, Garibaldi, Bay City, and Pacific City will now be closed on Mondays, our traditional slowest day. Only the Manzanita and Tillamook Libraries will be open on Mondays. On Tuesday Friday, the branches are now open from 10:00 am until 6:00 pm, with a lunchtime closure from 1:00 - 1:30 pm.

This will take a little getting used to, but the law says we must give employees a lunch break when we are open all day. Since the branches are normally run with just one employee, closing for a quick lunch is the only solution. Of course, the WiFi will continue to work from outside each of our branches over the lunch closure. But in addition to the morning hours, our patrons can now enjoy another full hour at closing time! When we closed at 5:00 pm, we re-

alize it was difficult for some of you to get there after work, but hopefully the 6:00 pm closure will help you to check out a few things on your way home. Once again, you asked and we listened!

On Mondays, in addition to the Tillamook Library being open their usual hours, the only other branch that will be open is the busy Manzanita Library on Laneda Avenue.

They will be open from 10:00 am to 6:00 pm, with the 1:00 - 1:30 pm closure for lunch.

And what about Saturdays?

Starting this week, the five satellite branches will be open on Saturdays at 10:00 am, close again for a 1/2 hour lunch at 1:00 pm, and then reopen from 1:30 pm until 3:00 pm.

To sum this all up, our patrons are gaining morning hours at all the branches, one additional open hour at the end of each weekday, and we are reopening on Saturdays again! Win, win, WIN! What about the main library in Tillamook? They will have the same hours they have had for the last several months. Monday through Friday from 9:00 am - 5:00 pm and Saturdays from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm.

Because they have multiple employees in Tillamook, they do not have to close for lunch.

The moral of the story is next time you have an opportunity to fill out a survey about the library...DO IT! We really listen and try to act on as many suggestions as possible. Stop by our website to fill out this year’s survey!

The next weekend, on December 10, the Tillamook County Pioneer Museum will host its Festival of Trees Gala. The event returns after two years, and it’s sure to be a bash! Tickets are $35 per person in advance for $40 at the door, and they include two drinks and heavy hors d’oeuvres. The event starts at 5:30 and runs for about two hours, during which attendees can bid on silent auction items or beautiful pre-decorated trees donated by other community organizations.

reak out the lights and garland, it’s officially time for the holidays.

With Thanksgiving safely behind us, we forge forward into the Christmas season.

This year feel a little bit more normal, with several community organizations and businesses hosting holiday events to help add a little cheer to your December.

We wanted to take a little bit of time to highlight the event lineup here in Tillamook, with a special focus on some of the events our Chamber members are participating in. We’ll include more details at the bottom of this article about where to find other events, too!

We’ll kick off the holiday season with the City of Tillamook’s tree lighting at 5 p.m. December 4. The event includes a coloring contest, toy drive, local performances, hot cocoa, popcorn, photos with stand and catered food.

We’ve also heard that the Grinch might make an appearance, so keep an eye out.

Ahead of the event, stop by the Tillamook Farmers Co-op to get pet-friendly photos with Santa. The photo booth will be open from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Then, following the tree lighting, watch as decorated vehicles, floats and dancers

ney Auditorium at Tillamook High School. This beloved holiday ballet is sure to be a crowd pleaser. And if you miss the first performance, you’ll have a second chance to see it at a 2 p.m. matinee on December 11.

December 11 also brings Santa and the Grinch to town for an event at the Tillamook Air Museum. Kids are invited to bring their letters to Santa to be shipped to the North Pole. Santa and the Grinch will also be available for photos!

You can also stop by Pacific Restaurant between 12 p.m. and 3 p.m. on December 11 to see SantaLand, a collaborative holiday extravaganza that will include Salty Raven and other local partners.

That gets us through the December planned so far, but we’ll keep you in the loop on any other events that might pop up. Simply follow us on Facebook or Instagram, or check into the Community Calendar at tillamookchamber.org/events.

You can also find holiday events in other parts of the county on the full Tillamook County Holiday Events Calendar on the Visit Tillamook Coast Facebook Page.

As always, we wish you a safe and fun holiday season this year, and we hope to see you around town at some of these awesome holiday events.

How come nobody is talking about the long term side effects of the vaccine I was wondering why no one is telling people about the life long side effects of getting these so called vaccines for covid. The life long side effects are worse than getting covid itself. Why doesnt anyone ever write stories on that.

Or better yet why our court system and DA are so corrupt and our DA Bill Porter has all these past charges and stuff for bribery and all sorts of things but yet he is still our

DA. I mean come on write about something the community has been complaining about.

Now they are giving this vaccine to our children in schools because no one is educating them on what it can do to you and your immune system to where you wont even be able to fight off a common cold and you’ll probably die from that. There has to be a reason that most cops and medical staff around Oregon refuse and quit there jobs because they will not take that vaccine. Doesn’t anyone find it kind of odd.

reetings Bay City!

As I put away my fall decor, I am reminded of the time I have been able to spend with friends and family throughout this month, and the love shared and thankfulness for being together after another year of strife and illness that many didn’t survive. My prayers are for their families dealing with grief, because I know how hard it is.

Bay City Fire Chief Darrell Griffith is in need of volunteers, both men and women. The Fire Department is critically short of volunteers, which means that they have been going on calls with less people. In 2020 they responded to 205 calls, and in 2021, as of November 18th, they had already recorded 237 calls, and are going into one of their busiest seasons, all while maintaining the high standards that the Fire Department requires. Bay City is the second most populated city in Tillamook County, and growing. Our Fire Department continues to do the same job

that larger stations do, again, with less people. Before the pandemic, the Fire Department had 22 men and women.

Now they are down to 9 very dedicated fire fighters “holding down the fort”. During the pandemic, Chief Griffith was also very busy updating the department’s programs and training. They now offer several training options, such as online, on the job, or outside classes. The also train with other departments. If firefighting is not in your skill set, they also need in-house responders to help with other tasks, such as helping with administration and providing day care for the children of first responders. By volunteering, you will be joining a fire department that began in the 1860’s under the leadership of Captain John McEwen, when all they had were three horse drawn hose carts and two hand drawn carts. These were brave men fighting fires with very little equipment. You can continue to support this historic fire department by

becoming part of it’s future.

Volunteer! Your fire department needs you now.

The Bay City Arts Center has planned a busy December of classes and entertainment, starting with Hope Montgomery teaching a figure drawing workshop on Thursday, December 2nd, 6:00 to 8:00 PM, and a printmaking workshop on Thursday, December 11th, 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM. The BCAC is providing linoleum blocks for printing. The class will focus on holiday cards.

Both classes have a $20 suggested donation, and tools and supplies are available.

Also, because class size is limited to 10 people, please

Tuesday, November 30, 2021

register early by calling Hope at (731)592-17239.

The Balik workshop taught

by Shawn Jackson and Hope Montgomery is on Friday, December 12th, from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM. All supplies are provided, and the suggested donation is $30.

Although this class is already full, they suggest that you call Hope at the above number to be placed on their wait list.

Because of Covid, class sizes are limited, so please be patient, and watch for the return of your favorite classes.

Watch the BCAC newsletter for date and times of their annual Lasagnathon. This is your opportunity to give to BCAC so their programs, classes and events can continue. Call (503)377-9620 for more information.

Don’t forget Amanda Stanaway’s “Lost Album” release concert on December 4th at 7:00 PM hosted by the Bay City Arts Center. They describe Amanda as a “Gutsy folk singer/song writer and vivid storyteller”. Seating is

limited, and the suggested donation is $25-$30.

The Bay City United Methodist Church wishes to thank members and friends of the congregation who pitched in and made thirteen families’ Thanksgiving truly special by providing full meal Thanksgiving baskets. They would also like to thank those who donated or purchased clothing and toys for their Christmas outreach program. Please remember, donations must be turned in by December 14th.

The silent auction fundraiser was a huge success, and they are grateful for all who helped. The words “grateful” and “thankful” are words you hear often from the congregation at the Methodist Church, but I think I can safely say that we are the ones who are thankful and grateful to have you in our community’s life.

Mark you calendars for December 7th at 8 AM to help construct the second emergency container at the corner of 3rd and High streets. For more information

contact Public Works Director Roy Markee at (503)8124818.

Dear readers, the volunteers in Bay City, whether it be the firefighters, people in our local church, the volunteers at the Bay City Arts Center, or a stranger doing a random act of kindness, they all share a common thread.

They are all true and good.

How does one become a true and good human being? I will let the words of Charles Malik answer that question.

“How do we become true and good, happy and genuine, joyful and free? Never by magic, never by chance, never by sitting and waiting, but only by getting in touch with good, true, happy, genuine human beings, only by seeking the company of the strong and free, only by catching spontaneity and freedom from those who are themselves spontaneous and free.”

Thank you for reading the Fencepost, and I will see you next week.

I have questions, do your research

the during the experimental study they found that Remdesivir has a mortality rate of 53.1% causing it to be pulled from the study. Nonetheless Dr. Fauci declares Remdesivir was proven safe and effective in the ebola trial.

Over the course of March - May of 2020 Gilead, the maker of Remdesivir, conducts a 10 day study of Remdesivir on 53 covid-19 positive people. Of those 53 people 23% experienced multiple organ failure & acute kidney failure, an additional 8% had to stop treatment after only 5 days due to severe liver failure and acute kidney failure.

Not only has Dr. Fauci deemed this to be the standard treatment for covid-19, we also have CMS.gov essentially bribing hospitals with a 20% bonus payout for using Remdesivir on covid-19 positive patients. To this date 30% of all people in America treated with Rem-

desivir have developed acute kidney failure, exactly like the aforementioned covid-19 study conducted prior to Dr. Fauci mandating its use in May 2020.

Why are medical professionals not treating people early with Ivermectin which has been FDA approved for human use for 25 years with no major adverse reactions?

Why are they instead waiting until people are practically knocking on death’s door to begin treating them? Are you aware that Ivermectin has a 67% improvement rate while Remdesivir only has a 19% improvement rate in treating covid-19? Did you know that there is a list of approved covid-19 treatments at https:// www.covid19treatmentguidelines.nih.gov/tables/table-2e/ For more information please go to c19early.com and thedrardisshow.com

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR We could learn from the ‘Greatest Generation’ In 1998, Tom Brokaw wrote a wonderful book about my parents’ generation entitled The Greatest Generation. It told the story of the generation who weathered the

Depression and how when threatened by sinister forces that wished to snuff out the flame of our democracy, they responded with courage and boundless self-sacrifice.

ers who contest the trivial sacrifices of wearing a mask and getting the vaccine.

They justify their stance by trumpeting banalities such as, “My body, my choice” and “I’m not sure of the science”.

I can buy the argument of “My body, my choice.” for things like a hairstyle or getting a tattoo when the consequences of poor choices only affect the person involved.

Poor choices in regard to vaccines and masking affect us all.

Likewise, the argument of “I’m not sure of the science.” doesn’t wash either. The millions of shots administered conclusively affirm the science of the vaccine.

Where would we be today if the “Greatest Generation” had exhibited the same attitude and put their comfort above the health of our entire nation?

Did you know the United States makes up only 5% of the world population & yet we somehow have 15% of all the covid-19 deaths? America has 1.5 times as many covid-19 deaths as India, which has 4 times the population of America. This leads me to believe the CDC and NIH have not put the proper protocols in place.

May of 2020 the CDC has no covid-19 protocols of their own & refer guidance to nih.gov. On nih.gov Dr. Fauci has declared that only Remdesivir, an experimental Ebola drug, shall be used to treat covid-19. Remdesivir was used from November 2018 - December 2019 as 1 of the 4 drugs in a study on ebola where they tested it on Africans as young as one day old. Ebola itself kills 50% of people that contract it. During

OBITUARIES Barbara Seeling Jan. 7, 1954 - 2021

Linda Ann Berndt 1945 - Nov. 5, 2021

riding bikes in the mountains, mostly up Trask with family and friends, she loved to cook and was very good at it.

She enjoyed her work waitressing, while many call it work, she loved it and all the people. But it was the people really, she loved and the smiles, the personal stories and the connection she felt from the community and strangers alike. Barbara had a genuinely loving and giving heart, she would have given the shirt off her back or her last dollar. She was admired by so many and she always reached out giving what she could and loved regardless.

Barbara was an organ donor and her family is happy that up to two people will be blessed with sight. Barbara not only gave while alive but now in death as well. She will be deeply missed by her Jimmy, her family and her friends alike.

Barbara passed away due to complications of C.O.P.D. and is survived by James (Jimmy) Conner, stepson Charles Seeling Jr., Vicki Caldwell (sister), Jeannie Christiansen (sister), Danny and Teresa Benson (B.I.L. and sister), Ken and Chilo Thompson (Brother and S.I.L.), Kelly Thompson (brother) and partner Kim Norton, Step Mother Judy Thompson, Amanda Seeling (step-granddaughter), many nieces and nephews, great nieces and nephews, and great, great nieces and nephews.

inda Ann Berndt died peacefully at her home surrounded by family and friends on November 5, 2021.

She was 76.

Linda was born in Seattle to Ira and Dorothy Hemingway, the eldest of 5 siblings.

She graduated from Immaculate Conception High School and later Washington State University. In the summer of 1963, Linda was awarded the Red Cross Award for her bravery leading 20 youth campers to safety after their boat capsized in Puget Sound.

Soon thereafter, Linda met the love of her life, Jerry Berndt while teaching elementary school in Ollala.

They married in 1969 and enjoyed a beautiful life together.

Following Jerry’s work they lived in Oregon, Virginia and Colorado. Albany, Oregon became her home for 40 years where she raised her 4 babies, Matt, Spencer, Nathan and Emily.

Throughout life, Linda was passionate about contributing to her community. She joined the parish of St. Mary’s Catholic Church in Albany. She volunteered for many includ-

Oregon State Police (OSP) responded to the report of a collision between a trailer being pulled by a Ford F550 and a school bus at 9:29 a.m. Nov. 19 on Hwy 6 near milepost 35, west of Banks.

According to OSP, preliminary investigation revealed that a red 1999 Ford F550 truck pulling an unloaded flatbed trailer, operated by Frank Rich of Otis, was traveling westbound on Hwy 6 near milepost 35 when the trailer began to fishtail uncontrollably and detached from the coupling. After separating from the truck, the trailer collided with the driverside rear axle of the school bus.

The school bus was from the Nestucca School District and was eastbound on Hwy 6 on a school field trip to Portland.

Steven Parks of Cloverdale operated the school bus. The school bus began to rotate and went into the eastbound ditch and came to rest against the embankment wall blocking both lanes of Hwy 6.

There were a total of six adults, including the driver and 31 students on the bus, OSP reported. Seven people were transported by medics to various hospitals with minor injures and as a precaution.

The driver of the Ford F550 was issued a citation for the operation of an unsafe vehicle.

Challenge filed to Legislative redistricting plan The redistricting plan adopted by the Legislature is now under challenge, as to the entire plan, before the Oregon Supreme Court.

Common Sense for Oregon, a nonpartisan, non-profit group, is supporting the filing of a Petition for Review in the Oregon Supreme Court by plaintiffs Patrick Sheehan and Samantha Hazel. The parties are being represented by the Salem law firm, Kevin L. Mannix, P.C. The petition points out that the Legislature refused to allow any oral testimony in regard to any redistricting plan except the plans proposed by the legislative Democrats and legislative Republicans. This made the redistricting process a partisan battle because alternative plans submitted by nonpartisan groups were not given full consideration.

The petitioners also challenge the Legislature’s method of reapportionment, which started with existing district lines and then

“The problem with the Legislative Plan is that it is a partisan plan designed to favor one party and designed to favor incumbents,” said Kevin Mannix, attorney for the plaintiffs.

“The Legislature had a balanced plan in front of it, which was fair to all concerned, labeled Equitable Map Oregon, presented by Rebecca Tweed,” Mannix added. “We assert that her plan met all the legal requirements and should be the approach adopted by the Oregon Supreme Court instead of the Legislature’s plan,” added Mannix.

arbara was born in Tillamook, Oregon January 7th, 1954 being the second born child of Gerald L. and Margueritte W. Thompson. Barbara was raised in Tillamook County, although she lived many other places, she always referred to Tillamook as home. She married a couple times, those were better off friendships, then she married Charles (Chuck) Seeling with whom she remained married to until his passing.

Barbara struggled in losing Chuck but several years later met James (Jimmy) Conner.

She loved “Her Jimmy”, as she referred to him, so much and he was fully accepted by her family and friends as he left his home in Washington to be with her forever. They had a lot of dreams to live life at the beach, both having lost their last spouses to Pancreatic cancer. It was healing for them and had them on the beach sands more often than not.

She loved it. Barbara was happier than she had been in a long time and Jimmy made her feel so safe. Barbara loved to write and wrote many, many beautiful poems.

Barbara loved everyone; the little children, my goodness she loved children, everyone’s children. She enjoyed

Adventist Health Tillamook patient care executive announces retirement After an over four-decadelong career in healthcare and executive leadership, Kathy Saxon, RN and patient care executive, has announced her retirement from Adventist Health Tillamook beginning January 14, 2022 to spend more time with her children and grandchildren in Tennessee and Florida.

Eric Swanson, president of Adventist Health Tillamook shares, “Her legacy of transforming patient care through her leadership, and guidance of our teams, leaders, and myself is greatly appreciated and I honor her decision to retire.”

Mr. Swanson continues, “I sincerely appreciate her insight and breadth of experience she brought to our hospital in the 7+ years she has been with us to lead the patient care teams at our hospital, presenting a living embodiment of living God’s love that increased quality of care and without a doubt

saved many lives as a result.

Kathy Saxon states “Working at Tillamook for the past 7+ years has been a rich and rewarding experience for me both at a personal and professional level.”

Mrs. Saxon adds, “It has been an honor to work with such a dedicated leadership team and staff who are committed to making Tillamook a place to receive quality and compassionate care.”

Kathy Saxon’s career in healthcare began in 1977 as a critical care nurse in Tampa, Florida, on a path of leadership that began in 1985 as ICU manager and eventually chief nursing officer before moving to Tillamook to be chief nursing officer in 2014, and interim president in 2019.

The process of identifying Mrs. Saxon’s replacement for the position of patient care executive will begin immediately to support a smooth transition of executive leadership

CARE commemorates 30 years of impact in Tillamook County with virtual event CARE invites the community to tune in for an upcoming virtual event—30 Years of Impact— at 6 p.m. Friday, Dec. 3. Help commemorate the success CARE has accomplished in our community in the last 30 years.

CARE will come together with special guest Sen. Betsy Johnson to reflect on everything they have accomplished in the last three decades and share their plans moving forward to eliminate poverty in Tillamook County. Join CARE for these updates, moving stories and a chance to invest in this work.

Shift and grow with CARE as an organization, as a community, united in the

belief that everyone deserves a healthy, thriving life. Tune in with CARE Dec. 3.

RSVP and learn more: https://www. avstream.me/care30 CARE was founded in 1991 after the local advisory board of Community Action Team (CAT) decided to incorporate as an independent nonprofit organization to provide local control to poverty fighting services in Tillamook County. CAT, based in St. Helens in Columbia County, began providing services in Tillamook County in 1985, starting the first homeless shelter in the county, known as the CAT House.

Today, CARE has grown into a multi-

faceted organization seeking solutions to the causes and effects of poverty for the residents of Tillamook County. Everything that CARE is today and everything it does, however, would not be possible without the support and generosity of our community. So CARE invites you to tune in to 30 Years of Impact to commemorate all that you have done and continue to do for the friends and neighbors who call Tillamook County home.

Invite your friends and neighbors to join CARE for this unique experience and CARE will look forward to seeing you all at 6 p.m. Dec. 3 at https://www.avstream. me/care30. Please RSVP.

BottleDrop opens Bag Drop at Tillamook Fred Meyer Oregon BottleDrop is excited to announce the grand opening of the Tillamook area’s first bulk bottle and can redemption location, providing residents the option of redeeming Oregon 10-cent refund containers through bagged bulk recycling instead of redeeming them one container at a time. The new BottleDrop network drop location, located at the Tillamook Fred Meyer, is part of BottleDrop’s popular Green Bag and Blue Bag Programs.

Bag drop locations make it fast and easy for area residents to return, redeem and recycle qualifying beverage containers in BottleDrop Green Bags, which can be purchased at the Tillamook Fred Meyer store. Customers can also sign up for a BottleDrop account at the store kiosk, and print bag tag stickers with QR codes linking the bags to their accounts. Then they simply tag their Green Bags with their stickers, fill them with empty Oregon 10-cent refund containers, and drop them off at the new location at Tillamook Fred Meyer (or any other BottleDrop location statewide). Containers are counted and credited to the account holder’s BottleDrop account within seven days.

Nonprofits and their supporters can participate as well, supercharging their bottle and can fundraising drives through the Blue Bag Program. The Blue Bag program allows nonprofits to set up fundraising accounts with BottleDrop and distribute Blue Bags to their supporters. Just like the Green Bag program, fundraisers are given unique bag tag QR code stickers to place on their bags, which ensure that the funds from those containers are credited to the nonprofit’s BottleDrop account.

BottleDrop is operated by the Oregon Beverage Recycling Cooperative (OBRC), which introduced the bulk Green and Blue Bag redemption program in 2010 as a convenient and efficient bottle and can recycling option for Oregonians. The program has grown each year since, with Oregonians returning 8.3 million Green and Blue Bags in 2020. Tillamook Fred Meyer is the 78th bag drop location in BottleDrop’s statewide network.

“There’s no better way to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Bottle Bill this year than to watch it continue to grow, expand, and innovate.

Oregon’s system produces some of the best outcomes in the nation because of efforts like this to expand the BottleDrop network and open up new and convenient redemption options to residents across the state,” said State Sen. Betsy Johnson.

How does BottleDrop’s Green Bag system work?

Oregonians who have a BottleDrop account can purchase approved Green Bags for a small fee. In Tillamook, Green Bags are available for purchase at the Fred Meyer store. Account holders can print bag tag labels with QR codes linking their bags to their accounts at the kiosk also located inside the Tillamook Fred Meyer.

Customers then fill the bags with redeemable bottles and cans and drop them at any BottleDrop Green Bag drop locations statewide.

BottleDrop will count the contents and credit the account within seven days.

There are different ways account holders can spend their redemption funds: - Withdraw them for cash at the Fred Meyer Tillamook or any BottleDrop kiosk; - Make their funds go

20% further by spending them at the Fred Meyer Tillamook through the BottleDrop Plus program; - Save for education by linking your BottleDrop Account with an Oregon College Savings Account; or, Donate to a charity of your choice through BottleDrop Give.

Customers can get started with the Green Bag program on BottleDrop’s website, by downloading the mobile app via the App Store and Google Play, or by signing up at the BottleDrop kiosk inside the store.

About BottleDrop and the Oregon Beverage Recycling Cooperative The Oregon Beverage Recycling Cooperative (OBRC) is the industry steward of Oregon’s nationally recognized beverage container redemption system and the operator of the BottleDrop network. Headquartered in Clackamas, Ore., OBRC is a statewide, not-for-profit cooperative, formed by the beverage distributors, manufacturers and grocers. OBRC helps keep Oregon beautiful by providing outstanding services to partners, distributors, retailers and the public for the recovery, reuse and recycling of beverage containers.

Through OBRC’s BottleDrop Redemption Centers and container pickup service for more than 2,500 retail partners, the co-op recycles around two billion beverage containers annually, protecting the Oregon we love, supporting the causes we cherish, and inspiring innovation beyond our borders – all without a penny of state funding.

Conservation groups appeal Tillamook County land use decision Surfrider Foundation Conservation groups Surfrider Foundation and Oregon Shores Conservation Coalition are appealing a decision

by Tillamook County that would allow a major shoreline armoring project to take place through an exception to statewide land use law.

On Friday, Nov. 5, the groups filed a Notice of Intent to Appeal a decision by the

county’s board of commissioners to allow development of an 880-foot-long beachfront protection structure (a riprap revetment) on an active foredune in the Pine Beach area. The groups are jointly represented by the non-profit Crag Law Center. The Oregon Coast Alliance, represented

by Sean Malone, has also filed a Notice of Intent to Appeal.

The properties in question

have not demonstrated that they are eligible for shoreline armoring under Goal 18 of Oregon’s land use planning laws, which protects beaches and dunes. Only properties developed by Jan. 1, 1977 are eligible. The Tillamook County Board of Commissioners approved an “exception” to the state requirement at the behest of the property owners.

“Goal 18 exists to preserve our public beaches, and access up and down the shoreline,” said Phillip Johnson, Oregon Shores’ executive director. “It also protects the natural character of dunes and bluffs. Riprap and other types of shoreline hardening damage the public beach, and can eventually lead to the loss of the beach and blocking public access.

Goal 18 was established to provide clear notice to developers that shoreline armoring wouldn’t be allowed, so that the Oregon coast wouldn’t turn into a wall of riprap. Allowing an ‘exception’ like this completely undermines the purpose of the law.”

Added attorney Anuradha Sawkar of the Crag Law Center, serving as pro-bono counsel to the groups filing the appeal, “By approving these applications, the county is demonstrating a preference to protect private development over the protection of the public’s access to the beach and the future health of Oregon’s coastal ecosystem.”

The groups contend that the county wrongly determined that impacts from the project, including the loss of

dune habitat and loss of beach access, would not negatively impact the public or the coastal ecosystem, despite evidence to the contrary. The beach that will be impacted by the project is an important recreational area, serving surfers, beachgoers and thousands of campers annually from adjacent Camp Magruder as well as the Barview Jetty Campground.

“Unfortunately, the county chose to support the interests of a handful of property owners over a statewide policy that protects Oregon’s beaches and dunes for everyone”, said Charlie Plybon Oregon policy manager for Surfrider Foundation.

This appeal is an important test for the statewide goal exception process as it pertains to shoreline stabilization approvals. The applicant is essentially asking Oregon to make an exception to state law protecting public beaches to allow for the taking of public property to protect private property. Coastal property owners and developers all along the Oregon coast who developed their properties knowing that shoreline armoring would not be allowed on

Chinook Forest Partners purchases timberland from Hampton Lumber Chinook Forest Partners finalized the purchase on Oct. 29 of 50,747 acres of timberland in northwest Washington from Hampton Lumber and Family Forests. Hampton Lumber manages timberland in Washington to help supply its sawmills in the communities of Morton, Randle and Darrington.

The acreage purchased by Chinook Forest Partners was part of Hampton’s 145,000-acre timberland acquisition from Weyerhaeuser earlier this year. Included in this transaction are 35,867 acres in Chelan and Kittitas counties and 14,880 acres in Snohomish and King County.

“The acquisition of these lands from Hampton Lumber represents an important strategic expansion of Chinook’s management footprint. We are excited to apply Chinook’s forward-looking approach, while working with Hampton and the community to bolster a legacy of sustainably-managed working forests in the region,” said Managing Partner Scott Marshall.

“Under Chinook Forest Partners’ ownership, these lands will continue to be an important source of logs for our sawmill in Darrington, while the proceeds from this sale

their property will be watching this case and will be eager to apply for their own Goal 18 exceptions should the county approval stand.

Both Surfrider and Oregon Shores recognize that Oregon’s public beaches and shoreline are a public trust.

Seawalls, riprap revetments, and other types of hardening damage this public trust.

While Goal 18 grandfathered in structures that existed when it was passed, it was intended to conserve the public trust in Oregon’s shoreline by prohibiting the spread of armored shorelines. The beachfront houses for which the exception is being sought were built on vulnerable lands, in full knowledge that they were not eligible for riprap.

Both of the groups appealing the Tillamook County decision advocate for a more holistic, statewide policy addressing sea level rise and its effects on the shoreline, rather than the current piecemeal approach. Beyond the threat to public beaches and Statewide Planning Goal 18 that the case presents, the appellants hope that the case may also be a catalyst for a more holistic approach at the state level.

Oregon’s unemployment rate drops to 4.4% in October Oregon’s unemployment rate dropped to 4.4% in October, down from 4.7% in September. This is an unusually low unemployment rate for Oregon.

Since 1976, when comparable records began, through October 2016, Oregon’s unemployment rate was never as low as 4.4%. However, during the economic expansion just prior to the pandemic recession, Oregon’s unemployment rate was 4.4% or lower for the 41 consecutive months from November 2016 through March 2020. Oregon’s unemployment rate reached a record low of 3.3% in November and December 2019.

In Oregon, nonfarm payroll employment rose by 4,700 in October, following a revised gain of 700 jobs in September. In October, the private sector grew rapidly by adding 10,300 jobs, but that gain was diminished by a loss of 5,600 jobs in govern-

ment. October’s total nonfarm employment gain was less than the average of 6,800 jobs added per month during the prior six months.

Among the major industries, leisure and hospitality and professional and business services each added close to 3,000 jobs in October. Three other industries added more than 1,000 jobs: construction (+1,500 jobs), manufacturing (+1,400), and wholesale trade (+1,100).

Government dropped by 5,600 jobs as schools still had low employment levels in October compared with two years prior.

During the past two months, hiring in local government fell well below seasonal norms, with losses totaling 8,000 jobs during September and October. This left job numbers below prepandemic figures. Local government education employed 129,800 in October, which was 8,900

jobs below the October 2019 number. Similarly, local government excluding education employed 93,800 in October, which was 2,000 jobs fewer than two years prior.

Leisure and hospitality added 3,100 jobs in October, following a gain of 2,200 in September. Despite these gains, leisure and hospitality still accounts for the bulk of Oregon’s jobs not recovered since early 2020, with 30,000 jobs left to recover to reach the prior peak month of February 2020. The industry has regained 73% of jobs lost early in the pandemic.

Professional and technical services has grown rapidly throughout 2021, and the industry is now well above its pre-recession peak. This industry added 4,200 jobs during the past three months and 13,100 jobs since the low point in April 2020.

TILLAMOOK COUNTY WELLNESS

Tillamook Serenity Club: Fellowship means life Angel Parsons Serenity Club Manager

W

hat is The Serenity Club and what do you want people to know about it?

The Serenity Club (TSC) is a nonprofit organization that addresses the problem of addiction in our county.

We offer meeting space for 12-step meetings like Narcotics Anonymous, Alcoholics Anonymous, Al-Anon and Gamblers Anonymous.

We also have common areas for fellowship and drug and alcohol free activities & events (pre-covid). We are finally able to resume some of the activities that have been sorely missing during the pandemic. This Thanksgiving Day we will be hosting our traditional Thanksgiving Dinner along with scheduled meetings at noon and at 6 pm. In December we be resuming our once a month Bunco night, our Christmas Dinner on Christmas Day and our annual Children’s Christmas Project for the children of parents/guardians who are active in 12-step addiction recovery. Instead of a physical gathering, it will be a personal doorstep visit from Santa Claus and the Elves and will include a holiday stocking and a special gift for each child.

What is your role with the Serenity Club and, if you are comfortable sharing, how did you come to get involved in the organization?

I am the current interim manager as well as a member of the serenity club, and also a recovering addict. I have been a part of the 12-step groups here along with extra-curricular activities for the past 10 yrs.

I came to TSC desperately seeking a new way of life without drugs and alcohol, and I found it here in 12-step

meetings and amongst the many people just like me. I owe this wonderful building and its members an unmeasurable amount of gratitude.

What is special about the Serenity Club or others like it?

TSC is special because it not only provides 12-step meetings, but also provides social activities and fellowship. It offers experience in living a life without the use of drugs or alcohol.

Even during the 1st wave of covid, we did absolutely everything we could to provide meetings. We know how much they are needed in times like these. We offered information on meetings on zoom, and then eventually phased into outside yard meetings, which were so welcomed after so many days/months of isolation.

We are pretty much back in business now and our rooms are full again.

What can be challenging for people and what are some strategies that seem to work for people who are part of Serenity Club?

I think people assume coming here will put some sort of judgmental target on their back, or that they are somehow different than the rest of us here or just feel embarrassed. I can say, from experience I had the same doubts, but I see when others just keep coming back every day or as often as they can, they eventually realize we are all the same here and are all here to help one another. One of the best things

about this place, is how welcoming the people in it are. And I don’t exaggerate when I say they welcome you with open arms. If you weren’t a hugger before, you’ll swiftly become one.

What do you wish people knew about alcohol and substance use disorder?

I wish people knew there was another way of life to live, and that all hope is not lost. I wish all the time that people who are out there still struggling knew that the impending doom, hopelessness, and overwhelming mental and physical addictions they are feeling, can be helped. People here, DO recover. I’ve been a witness to this and I myself, have experienced this.

How can people access this support at the Tillamook Serenity Club?

TSC is open every day of the week for 12 step meetings and fellowship. We encourage all to attend and leave with a schedule and some hope. We also have schedules of meetings offered on Zoom and schedules of 12-step meetings all over our county. You can find more information about TSC on our Facebook page and our website www.tillamookserenityclub.org.

What other community resources exist?

The Tillamook counseling center offers a peer support program, and their peer mentors have been bringing clients to TSC for meetings in the afternoon to lead them in a positive direction for when they are ready to once again take the reins of life.

There is also information at www.ourtillamook.org.
