Headlight Editor

damp weekend did not deter the crowds from turning out for the 69th annual June Dairy Parade on June 27, or the two nights

of the 39th Tillamook Rodeo, held on the 26th and 27th.

Weekend fun began on Friday night at the rodeo, with all the crowd favorite events from bareback bronco riding, to barrel racing and calf wrestling.

More boring needed for Tillamook water mainline Will Chappell

T

Headlight Editor

illamook city council unanimously approved a $525,000 change order to the contract with Tapani Inc. for the first phase of a new water transmission line from south of the Port of Tillamook Bay to the city.

The change was necessary to avoid disruptions to the airport’s operations and Tillamook City Manager Sean Lewis said that it was how the project should have been designed from the beginning.

“From our perspective as project managers, we don’t see it as a huge loss because this is how it should have been done in the first place,” Lewis said.

Council approved the contract to construct a new 3.2-mile alignment of water main line between the port and the city to replace one from the early 20th century at their January 16

meeting this year. That segment is just the first phase of the project, replacing the line between Clemons Corner and the west side of the intersection at Highway 101 and Gienger Road, with a second phase to replace pipe along Gienger Road and Tillamook River Road and tie into the distribution system at the corner of Second Street and Ivy Avenue.

Originally, plans called for a small section of the line’s path to be bored underneath wetlands at the south end of the airport, with the rest to be completed with open trenching. However, port authorities approached the project team after work had begun and let them know that returning to open trenching inside the fenceline around the runway would prevent aviation operations by placing equipment in the airport’s non-obstruction zone.

Lewis said that getting approval to work in that zone

would take six to eight months through the Federal Aviation Administration, and that the project team did not have time for that delay.

Instead, the section of line that is bored is being lengthened to avoid the non-obstruction zone.

The city had received excess funding for the project, slated to go towards the second phase, with $12 million coming from the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, $4 million from a federal allocation this January and $800,000 from a Business Oregon grant, against an original budget of $12.7 million. Lewis said that the project team expected the additional boring to increase costs by $460-475,000, noting that the $525,000 approval was designed to give wiggle room.

Lewis said that the project remains on schedule for completion in the first quarter of 2027.

Bay City begins water system upgrades Will Chappell

I

Headlight Editor

n May, Bay City’s city council approved two projects for a combined $3.66 million to add a new 500,000-gallon reservoir on Juno Hill and replace the main transmission line between Alderbrook Road and that reservoir and an

existing reservoir at the same site.

Bay City City Manager David McCall said the projects, which are being financed by a partially forgivable federal loan, were part of the system’s long-term plan and that he expected them to be completed by September or October. McCall also took the chance to

discuss the city’s recently updated sewer lateral ordinance.

The city’s water utility serves the city, four water districts and the Tillamook County Creamery Association, which uses around half of the water produced by the system. Water is sourced from a well field across the Kilchis River from the Hydrangea Ranch, whence it runs through an 18-inch pipe to the intersection of Kilchis River Road and Alderbrook Road. From there, two ten-inch PVC pipes diverge, with one continuing west towards Bay City and the other heading south towards the reservoir on Juno Hill and the utility’s other customers.

One of the projects will see the ten-inch PVC pipe that heads south from the junction replaced with 12-inch HDP pipe, which is more flexible to prevent cracking that is common in PVC piping. This work is being undertaken by Advance Excavation at a

cost of $1.7 million and has already begun.

The other project will see Woodiger Inc. add a new 500,000-gallon reservoir to a piece of property on Juno Hill that is already home to a matching reservoir, with both connected to a seismic isolation valve. Work on that project is expected to begin in early July.

Funding for both projects is coming courtesy of a $3.8-million, partially forgivable loan through the 2021 Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill. 52% of the loan is fully forgivable, while the remaining 48% will be repaid at a sub-three-percent interest rate over 30 years using a portion of $600,000 paid annually by the system’s users to cover operations and maintenance, and contribute to a capital fund for projects like these. “That capital fund was intended to be used as a match towards a grant, and we figured it would take like ten years to fund that, build up money and find that grant,” McCall

said. “Well, thanks to the infrastructure bill, it appeared much earlier.”

Updates to sewer lateral regulations came as the city works to cut down on inflow and infiltration across the system.

Previously, residents were required to fix any issues with lateral lines within 60 days of being notified of the problem by the city or their water service would be shut off, though McCall said that enforcement was mostly limited to situations where lateral lines failed completely.

Three years ago, the city used funds from the American Recovery Plan Act to purchase a camera truck to inspect the city’s sewer system. Public works crews have spent the last two winters inspecting the system and repairing issues in the city’s main lines, and McCall said that it was now an appropriate time to shift focus to lateral lines.

To facilitate that, council recently updated the regula-

tions around lateral line inspections, requiring that they be performed when a property is sold or when public works crews alert a property owner of an increased rate of flow coming from their lateral line.

Property owners then have 60 days to have a scoping of the lateral line completed, and if a problem is identified, four months to get the problem fixed before a $100 monthly fine is added to their water bill, though the fine will be refunded as long as the lateral line is repaired within eight months of the scoping.

McCall said that council had put money into next year’s budget to reimburse impacted homeowners for 10% of the cost of a repair, with a maximum payment of $1,000. McCall also noted that the city had a home improvement loan program open to residents making 80% of the area’s median income or less that involves no repayment until their property sells.

with ‘Lincoln’s Legacy’ A

t a rural county museum in Oregon, you might expect antique farming equipment, local yearbooks or taxidermy. What you probably wouldn’t expect is a surprisingly serious collection devoted to Abraham Lincoln — proving you don’t have to visit Washington, D.C., to find a little presidential history.

To celebrate America’s 250th, the Tillamook County Pioneer Museum (TCPM) is displaying an original curation: “Lincoln’s Legacy.” The exhibit highlights Abraham Lincoln’s life and political career with a gallery of text panels, facsimiles, photographs, folk art, and other memorabilia.

“We chose to feature Abraham Lincoln because his legacy transcends time to impact American politics 150+ years after his assassination,” TCPM Exhibit & Program Developer Jenny Teece said.

“As we reflect on the founding and evolution of our nation, his story is just one thread in the tapestry of American history.”

Abraham Lincoln was born in a one-room log cabin in Kentucky on February 12, 1809. He grew up working on his family’s farm but took the initiative to educate himself by reading anything he could find.

Lincoln went on to become a lawyer at the age of 27, a career that built him a strong

reputation. In 1860, Lincoln became the Republican presidential nominee and won the office decisively.

Seven states promptly voted to secede from the United States in response to his election, forming the Confederate States of America. Lincoln refused to acknowledge the secession, and tensions built until an attack on Fort Sumter, South Carolina exploded the nation into civil war.

The war was the focus of Lincoln’s presidency. It shaped his economic, foreign and domestic policies, revolutionized the role of the President as Commander-in-Chief, and redefined the powers allotted to the executive branch of the government. Through it all, he emphasized his primary goal was to preserve the Union.

Five days after the Confederacy’s surrender, Abraham Lincoln was assassinated on April 14, 1865, while attending a play at Ford’s Theatre in Washington, DC. So, what does Abraham Lincoln have to do with Oregon…or Tillamook County?

In his death, Abraham Lincoln was anchored as a national martyr while his legacy has been analyzed, scrutinized, and preserved by many around the world, including Oregon’s own Mark O. Hatfield.

Mark O. Hatfield was born in Oregon on July 12, 1922, and remained a resident for his youth and much of his adult

life. After earning degrees from Willamette University and Stanford University, he joined the U.S. Navy as a landing craft officer in the Pacific Theater during World War II. Hatfield’s political career began after being elected to the Oregon House of Representatives in 1950 and the Oregon Senate in 1954. He served as Oregon’s Secretary of State in 1956 and Oregon’s Governor from 1959 through 1967. Hatfield was elected as a United States Senator in 1966 where he served for 30 years until his retirement in January of 1997. He resumed teaching political science and history courses at Portland State University, George Fox University, and Willamette University until his death on August 7, 2011 at 89 years old.

A lifelong student of Abraham Lincoln’s political career and legacy, Senator Hatfield was an avid collector of Lincoln memorabilia. Much of which was gifted to him by constituents, congressional peers, and even presidents. A portion of his collection was gifted to the Tillamook County Pioneer Museum in 1997, with an additional donation in the early 2000s.

“This exhibit offers visitors an opportunity to reflect on our shared history and an individual’s vision and courage that helped shape the United States,” TCPM Executive Director Peyton Tracy said. “Lincoln’s leadership, character and commitment to preserving our nation during one of its most challenging periods remains deeply relevant today.”

“Lincoln’s Legacy” is now on display at TCPM through November 2026. As a compliment to the exhibit, a variety of Abraham Lincoln and America’s 250th themed items are for sale in the Museum’s gift shop.

To further commemorate America’s 250th, TCPM is also hosting a “Wish Wall” location.

Coordinated by “Made By Us,” a nationwide network of 500+ museums, people across the nation are invited to share their birthday wishes for the U.S. TCPM has supplied postcards for visitors to compose their hopes on, which can then be hung on the Wish Wall at the Museum.

“I am proud to be a part of an organization that is bringing this special exhibit celebrating Abraham Lincoln and our country as part of America’s 250th anniversary,” TCPM Board President Ryan Weber said. “We are proud to be part of this nationwide celebration and to provide meaningful opportunities for our community to connect with America’s past as we look toward its future.”

The Tillamook County Pioneer Museum is open Tuesday - Saturday, 10 a.m.- 4 p.m.

Bob and Logan Browning discuss their fishing practices with the tour members.

OSU Extension Service leads Port of Garibaldi tour Will Chappell Headlight Editor

M

embers of Oregon State University’s Sea Grant faculty led a public tour of the facilities at the Port of Garibaldi on June 26, as part of their ongoing Discover Oregon Seafood series.

During the tour, Amanda Gladics and Alex Marquardt guided the group to various areas of the port and discussed its operations, with further information shared by people working in retail outlets at and boats based out of the port.

Gladics began the tour

with an overview of Oregon’s fishing industry, explaining that while Pacific whiting accounts for the largest share of the state’s catch by volume, it was not typically marketed directly to consumers and was instead used to make processed products like fish sticks.

Other large catches for the state include Dungeness crab and pink shrimp, while salmon is a smaller fishery, though nonetheless important as it serves as a bridge between seasons and consumers are willing to pay more for it.

In Garibaldi, the mix of fish caught is different from

statewide, Gladics said, with Dungeness crab making up most of the catch, and clams that are used mostly as crab bate representing the second largest percentage.

When considering the income generated by different catches, low-value whiting represents under 20% of revenues, while crab brings in almost half of revenue statewide and an even larger share in Tillamook County.

Gladics said that there were 324 crab permits issued in the state, with boats restricted to between 200 and 500 pots apiece, which they

must check every 14 days.

Early in the season, which begins in December and ends in August, crews check pots every 24 hours and work in waters up to 500 feet deep, while later in the season, they check slightly less frequently and focus on pots closer to shore in shallower waters.

Marquardt discussed oyster farming in the state, explaining that farmers leased fields in perpetuity from the state and raised oysters from seeds in empty shells. Tillamook Bay has more than 2,000 acres leased for oyster farming, making it by far the

largest site for the activity in the state. Three species are mainly harvested in Oregon, Marquardt said, predominant Pacific oysters, native Olympia oysters and smaller, sweeter Kumamoto oysters.

Pacific Seafood, a company that operates in Washington and California as well as Oregon, operates the state’s only large-scale farm in Tillamook Bay. After the introduction, the group proceeded to The Spot, where owner Kelly Barnett demonstrated how to filet a Chinook salmon, and discussed how he smoked other

parts of the fish for sale in his store.

The group then made their way onto the docks, where Bob and Logan Browning from the Lady Lee discussed their operation, saying that crab was their main catch, followed by tuna and salmon.

Bob said that the boat also sold its catch directly to consumers, letting interested buyers know when they will be open on Facebook.

Finally, the group visited Captain’s Corner, which sells fresh, prepared and processed seafood caught by the port’s fleet.

The Tillamook Headlight Herald | June 30, 2026

letters to the Editor Disappointed in deal

Well, our “stable genius” president started a war, calling for Iran’s unconditional surrender and then he lost the war. The memorandum of understanding (MOU) he signed at Versailles, France to end the fighting (the place where Germany surrendered at the end of WWI) was, according to the Iranians (on national TV) “… a record of U.S. failure. People will see it and judge.” Among other things, the MOU says Iran will let ships pass through the Strait of Hormuz free of charge for 60 days only.

After that, Iran is free to charge tolls. Iran can now sell its oil to finance its military and its peaceloving proxies Hamas, Hezbollah and Houthis and any nuclear program it feels like carrying out . The MOU says nothing about what happens to Iran’s missiles. Of course, Trump said it would be unfair for Iran not to have missiles if other countries have them. And as a reward for Iran winning the war Trump says Iran will get $300 billion of reparations or “investments” – that’s about 200 times as much money as Obama spent to ransom American hostages and get a promise that Iran will not build an atomic bomb (a deal Trump has blasted ever since).

So, this is Trump’s present to America for the 250th anniversary of our revolution: a lost war, humiliation by our foe

and a “deal” which, if it is actually carried out, is a complete disaster. Oh, and by the way, the negotiations on nuclear matters depend on there being peace in Lebanon, where Israel and Hezbollah are currently fighting. Good luck with Israel not hitting back when Hezbollah fires missiles and drones at it. And, of course, we can be certain Iran will keep its promises about nuclear weapons, right?

Because they really don’t mean it when they keep saying death to America and death to Israel. Right?

Jon Orloff Rockaway Beach

our son faced a mandatory 75-month sentence for the charges that a Tillamook County grand jury recommended in the winter of 2022.

DA Olson settled for far less, with the offender serving only 30 months for a felony criminally negligent homicide charge along with conditions the county now must monitor. DA Olson told us during one of several emotionally gut-wrenching meetings that it wouldn’t matter how much time this individual served, that it wouldn’t change the loss we had experienced. She voiced concern proceeding with a trial if Judge Hill had been in charge because of previous conflict between them, she seemed to give the defendants lawyer every possible break, making her and her client’s lives much easier. The man who killed Henry is now free and receiving county services as part of his rehabilitation back into our community. We have received exactly zero helpful information or resources from victims’ assistance. In fact, they have misinformed us and have been rude and dismissive of our situation. The confusion and frustration this has caused has only added to the agony of this immense loss.

We do not feel like the legal system, particularly the DA’s office, did enough for us or the citizens of this county.

Powerful positions are held by people who constantly assure their communities how they prioritize public safely and seeking justice for victims of crime. Our law enforcement professionals are

Dissatisfied with DA We had recently been compelled to speak out even before recent news articles had appeared in the Tillamook Headlight Herald regarding the job performance of the DA and victims’ assistances offices. Now it feels even more important to add our experience to the story.

Our son, Henry, was killed by a 26-year-old uninsured stranger he had known for less than an hour. This individual was dishonorably discharged from the military and had been through substance abuse programs. He knew the risks of his careless behavior. People from his past reached out to us with stories confirming his reckless history. Somehow this is the person that the system has supported throughout this nightmare experience.

The offender who killed

Think about the surveyor’s office

In response to the article in the HH issue of June 23rd about the annexing of the BLM building and which departments should possibly be moved out there. It was stated by Commissioner Bell that Community Development, Assessment & Taxation, and the Clerk’s office should be considered for the benefit of the public.

Did she forget that there is also 1 more department that is currently in the TLC building? That department is the Surveyor’s office. Are you planning on leaving them there? I worked in that department

Will Chappell Editor headlighteditor@countrymedia.net

One Missile or One Old Hangar People often ask why I’m so obsessed with Saving Hangar B. The answer may be because I spent part of my career working on the Trident II D5 missile program.

A fully equipped Trident missile can cost well over $100 million. An Ohio-class submarine carries twenty of them. That’s billions of dollars cruising around the seven seas with the power to set the cockroaches up as the next dominant species.

Meanwhile we’re debating whether we can afford to save an 85-year-old historic blimp hangar.

I have to admit, I find that a little funny.

Back in my aerospace days, I learned that when you add “Mil-Spec” to a screwdriver... the cost is irrelevant. At Lockheed, we joked about the thousanddollar coffee pots... and yes, the stories about the toilet seats are true. Really.

Yet somehow, when it

comes to preserving one of the largest clear-span wooden structures in the world, everybody suddenly becomes a certified public accountant.

“Where will the money come from?”

It’s a fair question.

But I can’t help noticing that our nation has somehow managed to build nuclear submarines, aircraft carriers, space shuttles, interstate highways and a reflecting pool in Washington with a cost that increases every day.

Happy Fourth of July indeed.

Surely saving one old wood blimp hangar isn’t beyond the capabilities of the country that put a man on the Moon.

At nearly 70, I know a thing or two about aging infrastructure. My heart skips, I leak occasionally, my hair is growing in places I don’t want and not growing in places I do. And don’t get me started on the titanium screws and rods in my back. Thankfully, nobody has proposed demolition as the most cost-effective solution... not yet.

Hangar B deserves the same consideration.

After all, unlike a Trident missile, Hangar B’s purpose isn’t to destroy history.

It’s to preserve it.

And that strikes me as money well spent.

hris Laity, the Tillamook County Director of Public Works, spoke with the residents of Cape Meares at the Barbara Bennett Community Center on June 20. He explained that the Public Works Department is responsible for roads, bridges and maintenance of countyowned throughfares. The Department is also responsible for solid waste. Given that Tillamook County has 368 miles of roads, 118 bridges, 7,000 signs, 4,000 culverts and vegetation around all this, the Public Works folks are mighty busy. There is a lag time to repairs after big storms; damage from the 2023 storm is anticipated to be repaired completely by the summer of 2027.

The Road Department is currently exploring the possibility of reducing residential speed limits to 20 mph from the current 25 mph. They rely on the public to report problems; please contact the road department at 503842-3419 or email them at pubwks#tillamookcounty. gov, Monday-Thursday from 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., to submit work requests. If it is an emergency, call 911.

usy times are upon us, and there will be no busier time than this Saturday when Rockaway Beach celebrates the 250th anniversary of the birth of the United States of America.

The festivities begin at 11 a.m. with the City’s annual Independence Day Parade.

This year’s theme is “Generations by the Sea – Celebrating 250 Years of Freedom.” I am fortunate to be a fourthgeneration property owner here and terribly honored to be selected as Grand Marshal of this year’s parade.

ellensteen2@gmail.com joined Mr. Laity during the discussion.

She gave a brief update on Short-Term Rentals and Code Enforcement. She explained that the county is looking into revamping the code enforcement division to include short-term rentals, building, planning and sanitation issues.

We thank both Ms. Absher and Mr. Laity for taking the time to come to Cape Meares to share this information with our community. We would welcome them back on an annual basis to further develop good communication. And a special thanks from me to Wendy Kunkel for this report, as I was out of town and missed the presentations.

Cape Meares residents Micky Ryan and John Olmsted had booked a fishing charter trip for their nephew’s ebrates the Volunteers of the Year, and this year Leon and Teri Bruneau were chosen for their compassion, initiative and tireless service. The Bruneaus have been champions of Meals for Seniors since 2013, Teri currently serves as Board President.

Leon has volunteered for many years in the kitchen and at fundraisers. Their readiness to step in, organize and meet the community’s needs reflects the very best of volunteer service. In addition to Meals for Seniors the Bruneaus pioneered the Family Fund supporting families in need during the holidays and helping with utility bills in times of crisis. In addition, the Family Fund provides a summer lunch program for school aged children.

Congratulations to Leon and Teri Bruneau, a very hardworking couple.

Immediately after the parade, the 20th annual Firecracker Weiner Nationals will be held at the Phyllis Baker Park. This is a fun dash for dachshunds, and a real treat for spectators.

If you want to enter your

family from Texas (Micky’s brother, four of his grandchildren and their parents) one weekend in June, but it was canceled due to windy weather. They had to regroup fast. Micky and John got out a trout rod they had on hand, checked local stores and called neighbors for reinforcements.

Capt. Pete delivered three kid-ready fishing rods plus a couple of half-jars of power bait. Not too much later, a picture arrived to Pete’s phone: one of the kids was holding up a string of trout from Cape Meares Lake. Eloise, Marshall, Jilly and Everett each caught at least one fish during their weekend of fishing here.

This was the first time the Texas relatives had been out to Cape Meares; you can bet they’ll be back. Micky and John plan to be fully stocked up with fishing gear before their next visit. Love to hear about kids getting hooked on fishing.

Here at the Steen household, we were delighted to be part of a surprise engagement on June 13. Our daughter, Nicole Steen, got engaged to her boyfriend of several years, Jeremy Burress, in a unique proposal on the beach. Jeremy had borrowed one of our beachcombed bottles and put

rockaway beach barbara trout pooch in the races, show up at the park from noon to 1 p.m. and register your dog at the registration tent. Your racer will be assigned a heat, and the races continue until one dachshund is crowned Firecracker Champion. In addition to the wiener dog tournament, there are “All Dog” races, again register your favorite canine at the registration tent, the suggested registration is $5 per dog. The first and overriding rule in the Firecracker Races is to have fun, and you’ll find dogs of all shapes and sizes decked out in 4th of July costumes. But there are also some serious dog racers who travel from other states to participate. You really have to see it to believe how much fun it all is.

All profits from registration, food and merchandise sales go to support the Tillamook Animal Shelter’s vital work in rescuing and

here is so much to share this week with the council’s meeting and the GBA; there is always a lot out of GBA. A lot of it is about Garibaldi Days.

The GBA, with support of the city, is hosting a Porch Parade for the Fourth of July.

GBA’s stated goal for this event is community connection and the celebration of our small town’s spirit for America’s 250th Birthday.

There is a flyer posted on the city’s website, Facebook page and around town. The Fire Department will provide judging for the event on Thursday, July 2nd. Ribbons and Acknowledgements will be awarded for the best decorated porches! For the People’s Choice, your nominations can be dropped off with Valerie Schumann. Get those dusty decorations out of the closet and make the place glow with red, white, and blue! I do not have a porch that can be seen from the road, but I am getting that lower lot decorated for the occasion (got to say the dirt down there is pretty hard and getting things in the ground is proving difficult). Happy Birthday USA. Garibaldi Days planning is getting the job done. There are twenty parade applicants, and probably a few more by now. One of the events planned is the Kids Zone. I have always wanted to see kid events; it seems like the ideal thing to entertain kids and give parents a breather.

This year there will be one for the younger crowd and one for the older kids. There is talk of dunk tanks, with the question being who would offer to be dunked? I did not raise my hand.

Coast Guard Appreciation Day will be on the Sunday of

GARIBALDI LINDA BADE lindabade2023@gmail.com Garibaldi Days weekend. A celebration ceremony will be held from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Big Tent. It is a free event and there will be music and treats. Put the 26th of July on your calendar. An enjoyable way to conclude the outdoor activities of the weekend.

GBA is hosting a CleanUp Gang for Saturday the 18th of July to pick up trash along the highway in preparation for Garibaldi Days. If you are interested in helping make the city look its best, contact Valerie Schumann at 503-812-8423. If you are interested in volunteering to help out with Garibaldi Days itself, please contact Val for that sign-up as well.

Summer is upon us. And there is a Beach Clean-Up event planned for July 5th.

Volunteers should meet at 8 a.m. on Saturday the 5th at the Bar View Jetty, by the Coast Guard Tower. Arrangements include free access to the park if you are volunteering for the clean-up.

That is a lot of events to put on your calendar. You cannot say that opportunities do not exist for us to get out, breathe fresh air and lend a helping hand. Or get out and enjoy some music and fun with others. These things are good for our souls. Like sharing a meal with friends or family.

a note inside, asking Nicole to marry him. She stumbled across the message-in-a bottle, exclaimed and pulled out the note…and her jaw dropped.

Nicole’s two daughters and Jeremy’s two daughters were present on the beach at the time of the proposal; all the whopping and hollering that went on was surely heard all over Cape Meares. A Pacific City photographer, Bowen Childs, captured the special moment (Bowen Childs Photography, https://www. instagram.com/bowen.childs).

Jeremy’s mother, Marla, joined us for the celebration afterward. We are thrilled to welcome Jeremy, his girls and his mom into our family.

Don’t forget the Bay City Arts Center is featuring works from the Cape Meares Artists Collective in July. The artists’ reception is July 3 from 5-7 p.m. Drive on up Hwy. 101 and take it in.

And, Cape Mearesians, get ready to enjoy our usual village 4th of July. The oneblock parade will start at 11 a.m., with eats ($5 donation) and live music at 1 p.m. Please email Mary Gordon and/or Kathy Burke at capemearesca@gmail.com if you can help with set-up or clean-up.

See you there. caring for animals. The Tillamook Animal shelter receives no grants, and no county or state money. They are funded entirely by donations, adoption fees and the Firecracker Weiner National Dog Races. So, you can have a great time while supporting a very worthy cause.

Don’t miss it.

The Rockaway Beach Lion’s Club sponsors a treasure hunt for kids, and beach races for all ages, behind St. Mary’s by the Sea Catholic Church starting at 2:45. The Lion’s Club will also have their Purple Weenie Wagon selling hotdogs, sausages, sodas and other snacks at the Ocean’s Edge Wayside in the center of town.

Then at dusk, approximately 10 p.m., the city’s annual fireworks show will begin off the Ocean’s Edge Wayside. This extraordinary pyrotechnic display is fantastic and has been described

by Coastal Living Magazine as some of the best fireworks in the nation.

Exciting times in Rockaway Beach, and I hope to see you there.

City council held a second town hall meeting on the 22nd. Participation was not as great as that in May when there were twenty-eight in attendance. There were sixteen folks who came out to find out what the council/management had accomplished.

Not every identified priority has been accomplished. Fiscal Integrity is going to take more time. Audits are being completed and the city’s auditor will be making a presentation on what the last four audits tell us; that gives council an opportunity to ask questions regarding needs going forward.

Accomplishments include opening the community hall, getting staff back on-site, and moving forward on mold remediation by getting the asbestos assessed in the downstairs offices. Trash cans are back out on the main street. The street sweeping schedule is out and should be on the website. The website is improving – there is now a direct link to the upcoming council meeting agendas: Upcoming Meeting. There is also a direct link to election information – for those of you who may be considering a run for mayor or city council, that link takes you to the information you need to do that.

The town hall discussion was not limited to what had been accomplished.

The council desires to hear more from you about what you would like to see the city look like. What should the city prioritize: housing development, tourism, businesses, code enforcement?

The seed was planted for you to think about direction. The next town hall will be August 14th.

The love birds moved to Tillamook, Oregon, kind of in the middle of nowhere but he was a middle of nowhere kind of guy, until he retired and they relocated to their dream home in Florence, Oregon. With a lot of free time on his hands, Bill built his man cave with his highly refined audio system and always growing LP collection where he listened to tunes, tied off fly fishing flies, and I can neither confirm nor deny that he may have drank a few beers and smoked a little weed.

Bill is survived by his devoted wife, Sherry, his sister Kathy Newman, his nieces Megan and Michelle and their husbands Tom and Jeremy, respectively, his nephew Tom, five great nieces, one great nephew, and a crew of hell-raising friends.

A celebration of life will be held at a later date.

Tillamook composite squadron takes part in able readiness 8 Deb Maynard

Commander- Tillamook County Composite Squadron 14

O

n June 13 and 14, the State of Oregon’s Office of Resilience and Emergency Management (OREM), community members and Tillamook County Composite Squadron 114 came together to participate in the ODART/ ABLE READINESS 8: Whale Run & Mass Care Exercise (AR8) at the Tillamook County Airport.

The “Able Readiness 8”, a mass care exercise, is a full-scale disaster response simulation focused on mass care, emergency assistance, temporary housing and human services.

In the Pacific Northwest, these exercises are vital for preparing our community to handle major catastrophes like the Cascadia Subduction Zone earthquake and subsequent tsunami, floods and wildfires.

If we, as a community, don’t prepare and train for a disaster, when it does happen, we will not have the resources and knowledge to handle the situation, support our neighbors and protect each other.

Seven adult members and six cadets of the Tillamook County Composite Squadron of the Civil Air Patrol spent the entire two days in sweltering heat, erecting shelters and a command center, training for radio communication and assisting with loading and unloading supplies provided by ODART’s airlift delivery.

They remained overnight in the shelters, testing the comfortable cots, then dismantled and repacked the resources in three large containers the next day.

The containers remain stationed at the airport for emergency use. Now, if needed, the squadron is trained and ready to step in and serve the Tillamook community. After all, that

is part of the Cadet Oath.

Jeff Gilbert, Regional Emergency Coordinator for Oregon Department of Human Services – OREMkicked off the 2-day exercise with a great presentation on what to expect and a safety briefing about heat. Ryan Miller and his team from Deployed Logix (DLX) provided instructors to train locals on assembling the shelters stored in the containers.

Oregon Disaster Airlift Response Team (ODART), comprised of volunteer aviators, flew in relief supplies on a DC 3 aircraft which were then offloaded and donated to the Tillamook Food Pantry. Randy Thorpe, Tillamook County Emergency Manager monitored the exercise during the day. Medical Reserve Corps Coordinator, Velda Handler of the Emergency Medical Corps of Nehalem Bay, and her team were on hand to serve the medical needs of participants and test out their new resource trailer, complete with communication and computer support.

Despite the heat and high winds, the exercise was a rousing success.

Remove MLS #’s Congratulations to everyone who participated. And a hardy thank you. There will always be more to do and train for, but we are headed in the right direction. Tillamook County, when you see your Civil Air Patrol members in their US Air Force attire, give them a pat on the back. They work hard for you. And someday, the life they help to save may be yours.

e celebrate 250 years since the signing of the Declaration of Independence, the founding of the U.S.A., this weekend. Friday, July 3 is the legal holiday and in south Tillamook County all eyes will be on Cloverdale, for the annual Clover’s Day event. It starts off with an 8:30 a.m.

Fun Run from the intersection of Bridge Street and U.S. Highway 101. Live music, a vendor fair, a cruise-in and kid activities are slated from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. A parade winds through town at 11 a.m.

Let’s cross our fingers for sunny weather.

Festivities on Saturday, July 4 include a Bake Sale to Benefit Nesko Women’s Club, which has been doing good in these parts for over a hundred years.

They’re selling delicious baked goods and will also have a children’s table, books, puzzles, face painting, jewelry, collectibles, and a raffle for a Japanese float and a beautiful handmade quilt.

illiam “Bill” Rapp finished his last earthly jam session June 6th, 2026 at the age of 71 to join some of his favorite musicians who were already at that great gig in the sky. Although his exit came a little too soon (and I think he’d agree that a drummer who’s in a rush needs some work!) we can take solace that everyone benefited from his presence in their lives.

Bill was born and raised (and raised some hell) in Lake Mohawk, New Jersey. He played drums with bands all over New Jersey and New York until he followed his lifelong buddy- buddy out to the Pacific Northwest where he started taking gigs in Seaside, Oregon.

Although Bill worked most of his life as an repair technician, he really preferred fishing and keeping a beat with his hands on any surface near him (countertops, tables, bowls, pots…).

Tillamook County celebrates ten-year anniversary Tillamook County Wellness

A

“Year of Wellness” kicked off in 2016

with a declaration from the Tillamook County Board of Commissioners to improve the health of Tillamook County.

Since that declaration, ten years of meaningful work and collaboration have transpired into better health outcomes in Tillamook County.

In 2017, the year of wellness evolved into Tillamook County Wellness (TCW), a local collaborative involving hundreds of community members, more than eighty organizations and many generous donors over the last ten years. There are so many wonderful achievements resulting from the hard work of many people over the years; too many to name, and several events and programs that continue to positively impact our community.

One of the key indicators of this work is reflected in the County Health Rankings. In 2016, Tillamook County was ranked 26th out of 35 counties in Oregon. In 2020, Tillamook County was ranked #10, and a lot of that can be attributed to the great work being done by all the partners working in Tillamook County Wellness.

On June 4th, the partners of both present and past Tillamook County Wellness partners gathered to celebrate the ten-year anniversary and recognize some of the great leaders and collaborative partners whose contributions over the past 10 years have made Tillamook County Wellness the successful program it is today. Nominations were solicited for three award categories: Collaboration Excellence, Individual Service Excellence, and Program/ Event/Project Excellence.

Additionally, Tillamook County Wellness would like to express our appreciation to the entire community for their continued support and guidance of this impactful work within Tillamook County.

Tillamook County Wellness is committed to serving our community and providing meaningful health improvements in our county for many years to come.

Redeemer Lutheran Church celebrates a century of faith and fellowship R

edeemer Lutheran Church, a longtime part of the Tillamook community, will celebrate its 100th anniversary on Sunday, August 9, 2026, under the theme “Great Is Thy Faithfulness from Generation to Generation.”

For more than a century, Redeemer Lutheran has served the spiritual needs of Tillamook and surrounding communities, united by faith in the saving grace of Jesus Christ and growing from a small group of families into a multigenerational congregation.

Redeemer Lutheran Church was formally established in 1926, but its roots date back even further to when a small group of families gathered in homes for worship and fellowship. What began with the families of Albert Darby, Emil Krebs and Albert Krake soon grew to include the families of Dave Krake, Lewis Krake, Clarence Dougherty, Albert F. Main, Lymond Hanenkrat, Oscar Krebs and Allen Krake. As the group outgrew home gatherings, it began meeting in the Seventh-day Adventist Church building.

In time, the congregation raised enough money to buy property at Third and Grove, where volunteers helped complete a church building and organize the congregation in 1926.

Since its original construction, the church building has undergone multiple remodels and renovations.

The front entry was relocated and expanded, and a kitchen and other rooms were added. In more recent years, a new cross was fabricated by William Wallace and was raised where the old bell tower was located, and an elevator was installed.

Redeemer has been blessed by hundreds of people who have made it their church home. Linda Jeffrey is a long-time member of the congregation and grand-

grateful for the legacy of faith, fellowship, and commitment they helped establish.” Linda Jeffrey adds, “I was baptized, confirmed and married there. My husband and I sit in the same pew my parents often sat in. We are still a small, friendly church.

Come join us in worship, you can sit in my pew.”

Anniversary Celebration Details To commemorate 100 years of God’s faithfulness, Redeemer Lutheran Church will host a special anniversary celebration on Sunday, August 9, at 302 Grove in Tillamook.

The community is warmly invited to attend.

daughter of Albert F. Main.

She shares, “My earliest memories of Redeemer are sitting next to my Grandma Main in church and looking at the stained-glass window.

In the early 50’s the pews went all the way to the back of the church, and I liked to stand up in the pew and trace my fingers along the colorful glass. Grove Avenue was a narrow dirt road then. The grass slope from the church steps was a giant hill to a kid. I’d scramble up and roll down and get scolded for behaving in a ‘most un-lady-like manner’.

Redeemer was the center of my family. Sunday School picnics up the Kilchis River,

parents playing pinochle, kids playing hide and seek, ice cream socials, red KoolAid and endless potlucks.”

Throughout its history, the congregation has been served by the following pastors: • James P. Maier (1926–1936) • JCR Schmidt (1936–1949) • Edwin Lutz (1950–1969) • Albert Schudde (1969–1981) • Harold Iben, interim (1981–1982) • Erwin Sprengeler (1982–2000) • Allan Johnston (2001–2006)

• J. Wesley Beck (2007–2021) • Daniel Bohlken, interim (2021–2023) • Reverend Kevin Oster, installed in 2023, is the current pastor.

Beyond its regular Sunday services, Redeemer has offered spiritual growth opportunities and community outreach for all ages.

“God has faithfully nurtured the faith of His children through worship, catechism and Sunday School classes, Vacation Bible School, and group activities at Redeemer,” said Reverend Oster. Through its Women in Missions group (LWML), Redeemer supports local,

state, national and international mission projects.

The congregation has also partnered with Habitat for Humanity and CARE to help serve the needs of the local community.

Dorene White, a Tillamook native and granddaughter of Lymond Hanenkrat, reflects on Redeemer’s legacy, “I feel truly blessed to have grown up at Redeemer. I remember sitting in the same pew each Sunday with my mother and grandmother, later with my father, and eventually with my own family. My grandparents were among the founding families of Redeemer, and I am deeply

Schedule: • 10 a.m. — Coffee, juice, and pastries • 11 a.m. — Special anniversary service, with NW District President Mike Von Behren sharing God’s Word • Following the service — Lunch and dessert under the canopy on the church lawn “We invite everyone, from our current and former members to our friends and neighbors in the community, to join us in honoring our legacy,” said Reverend Oster. “We, the current members of Redeemer, look forward to welcoming you, reconnecting with you, and celebrating God’s grace and Redeemer Lutheran Church with you.”

Redeemer Lutheran Church is a member congregation of the Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod, whose mission is to make known the love of Christ by word and deed in churches, communities, and the world. Each Sunday, Redeemer offers Sunday School and Bible Study for all ages, teaching God’s Word from the Bible, beginning at 9:30 a.m., with Worship Services at 10:30 a.m.

Northwest potentially in for ‘one of the strongest El Niños we’ve had,’ climatologists say The potential super El Niño event this fall and winter could bring much needed rains to the region, experts said Alex Baumhardt

Oregon Capital Chronicle

W

arming temperatures at the equator could paradoxically bring the Northwest a wet fall and high winter snowpack, according to climatologists.

The West could be in for “one of the strongest El Niños we’ve had,” Larry O’Neill, Oregon’s state climatologist, said Monday. The ocean and atmospheric weather pattern that occurs every few years and touches all parts of the West typically brings with it warmer and drier temperatures from August through winter, but during a super El Niño — of which there have been only three since 1980 — it does the opposite, bringing greater rain and mountain snowpack.

“The very strong ones don’t follow the typical

rule of thumb,” O’Neill said following an online drought and climate outlook meeting hosted by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

That could be great for many drought-stricken parts of Oregon and the region, where heat, record low snowpack, depleted reservoirs and low stream levels have caused Gov. Tina Kotek to declare a drought emergency in nearly half the state’s counties.

In April, Washington Gov. Bob Ferguson declared a statewide drought emergency for the fourth year in a row, and that same month Idaho Gov. Brad Little declared a statewide drought emergency for the first time in 25 years.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration earlier this month said El Niño conditions had formed in the Pacific, with a 63% chance of a “very strong” El Niño peaking by the end of the year.

But, O’Neill also cautioned, recent El Niño events and its counterpart La Niña — typically associated with colder temperatures and snow

— have become far more unpredictable under rising global temperatures.

“In the last couple years, the La Niñas haven’t really been acting like they usually did. This past year, for instance, we had a weak La Niña, which is supposed to give us a good snowpack, and yet we ended up with our worst snowpack in our recorded history,” he said. “So where exactly this El Niño goes is pretty uncertain.”

If it’s weaker than expected, drought could continue through the winter and spring, exacerbating already low snowpack and water levels. If it is a “very strong” El Niño, depleted reservoirs and mountain snowbanks could be refilled and formed, O’Neill said.

Another byproduct of a strong El Niño worth tracking over what’s predicted to be a tough wildfire year: more lightning. O’Neill and his colleagues have been studying decades of lightning patterns in Oregon during El Niño and La Niña events and found that in eastern Oregon there’s a slightly higher prevalence of lightning during an El Niño period.

Record heat

Taken together, August through November of 2025 was the record warmest on average across the Northwest in more than 130 years of recordkeeping. NASA scientists, using NOAA records of global average temperatures dating back to 1880, found that November was the third warmest on Earth, behind only 2023 and 2024.

This October to May was the second warmest on record for Oregon and Idaho, and the third warmest for Washington. May temperatures across the region were about 4.5 degrees Fahrenheit above normal, and nearly 5 degrees above normal in Oregon. And in the last 60 days, Washington experienced its third warmest June and July on record, Oregon its fifth and Idaho its 15th warmest start to summer.

There’s a 50% to 70% chance that the region will continue to see above normal temperatures from July to September, scientists at the NOAA meeting said.

Low flow “So not only did we start with below normal snowpack overall, but that snowpack has melted faster

than normal as well,” said Karin Bumbaco, Washington’s deputy state climatologist.

Snow in Idaho, western Montana, the Washington Cascades and Snake River Basin melted two to five weeks earlier than normal, and in parts of the Oregon Cascades, mountain snowpack melted two months earlier than normal, Bumbaco said.

In Oregon, this means water reservoirs in Prineville and the Crooked River Basin and Crescent Lake in the Deschutes River Basin are expected to be low or very low by autumn. Crescent Lake is on track to end the season at its lowest level since the drought of the early ’90s, Bumbaco said.

In southern Oregon, some irrigation districts have curtailed junior water rights. In the Klamath Basin, the Klamath Project Drought Response Agency will pay farmers to stop irrigating and leave fields idle to reduce the risk of water shortages.

Oregon is breaking the most records for low streamflow in the region, and it’s expected to get worse in eastern Oregon

and southern Idaho during the next four months, according to Bumbaco.

Low power That’s a problem for the region’s hydropower system, according to Vince Tidwell and Natalie Voisin of the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. Between 2003 and 2020, the region lost about 300 million megawatt hours of electricity generation from drought alone, Tidwell said, costing the sector about $28 billion.

And despite peak demand for electricity in the region growing by 4.6% since last summer, energy availability has increased by only 1.5%, Voisin said.

“If there was a perfect storm of extreme events, then there is an elevated risk that there could be an energy shortfall,” she said.

held at At the front entrance to the Tillamook County Courthouse, 201 Laurel Avenue, Tillamook.

The Secretary of Housing and Urban Development will bid an estimate of $862,494.87. There will be no proration of taxes, rents or other income or liabilities, except that the purchaser will pay, at or before closing, his prorata share of any real estate taxes that have been paid by the Secretary to the date of the foreclosure sale. When making their bids, all bidders except the Secretary must submit a deposit totaling $86,249.48 [10% of the Secretary’s bid] in the form of a certified check or cashier’s check made out to the Secretary of HUD. Each oral bid need not be accompanied by a deposit. If the successful bid is oral, a deposit of $86,249.48 must be presented before the bidding is closed. The deposit is nonrefundable. The remainder of the purchase price must be delivered within 30 days of the sale or at such other time as the Secretary may determine for good cause shown, time being of the essence. This amount, like the bid deposits, must be delivered in the form of a certified or cashier’s check. If the Secretary is the high bidder, he need not pay the bid amount in cash.

The successful bidder will pay all conveyancing fees, all real estate and other taxes that are due on or after the delivery of the remainder of the payment and all other costs associated with the transfer of title. At the conclusion of the sale, the deposits of the unsuccessful bidders will be returned to them. The Secretary may grant an extension of time within which to deliver the remainder of the payment. All extensions will be for 15-day increments for a fee of $500.00, paid in advance. The extension fee shall be in the form of a certified or cashier’s check made payable to the Secretary of HUD. If the high bidder closes the sale prior to the expiration of any extension period, the unused portion of the extension fee shall be applied toward the amount due. If the high bidder is unable to close the sale within the required period, or within any extensions of time granted by the Secretary, the high bidder may be required to forfeit the cash deposit or, at the election of the foreclosure commissioner after consultation with the HUD Field Office representative, will be liable to HUD for any costs incurred as a result of such failure. The commissioner may, at the direction of the HUD field office Representative, offer the Property to the second highest bidder for an amount equal to the highest price offered by that bidder. There is no right of redemption, or right of possession based upon a right of redemption, in the mortgagor or others subsequent to a foreclosure completed pursuant the Act. Therefore, the Foreclosure commissioner will issue a Deed to the purchaser(s) upon receipt of the entire purchase price in accordance with the terms of the sale as provided herein. HUD does not guarantee that the property will be vacant. The amount that must be paid if the Mortgage is to be reinstated prior to the scheduled sale is $861,905.14, as of 7/16/2026, plus all other amounts that would be due under the mortgage agreement if payments under the mortgage had not been accelerated, advertising costs and postage expenses incurred in giving notice, mileage by the most reasonable road distance

for posting notices and for the Foreclosure Commissioner’s attendance at the sale, reasonable and customary costs incurred for title and lien record searches, the necessary out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Foreclosure Commissioner for recording documents, a commission for the Foreclosure Commissioner, and all other costs incurred in connection with the foreclosure prior to reinstatement.
