Garibaldi Days ‘lite’ After a year off, Garibaldi Days draws crowds to small fishing village G

aribaldi Days was held Friday, July 23 through Sunday, July 25. The 2020 event was canceled because of the pandemic. The 61st anniversary of the festival has been themed “Garibaldi Days Lite.”

A fireworks display over Tillamook Bay took place July 24. The highlight of the celebration was the gala parade. Parade participants made the trek down Hwy 101 and parts of the city.

The parade’s grand marshal was Virgil Loudon, a Port of Garibaldi employee who recently retired after 32 years and who facilitated the parade for many years.

The marketplace featured a diverse group of vendors offering a variety of crafts, jewelry, keepsakes, food and more. Other events included live music, a silent auction at Garibaldi Museum, a classic car show, open house of the Garibaldi Historic U.S. Coast Guard Boathouse, and more.

Garibaldi Days is a proud tradition for the 800 residents of the city.

Gun sales boom sparks ammo shortage What’s behind the empty shelves at gun shops?

Stepping to the firing line, Seaholm reached into her khaki shooting vest for a fresh, red 12-gauge shell and slid it into the shotgun, focusing on the low-framed cement trap house in front of her.

Experts say booming firearm sales in America are causing an ammunition shortage. New shooters, eco-

nomic uncertainty, possible legislation, and fear of political unrest have led to skyrocketing background check numbers, a key indicator of gun purchases.

According to the National Shooting Sports Foundation, 21 million firearm sale background checks were completed in 2020, eclipsing 2019’s 13.2 million by 60%.

The previous record was set in 2016 with 15.7 million background checks. An estimated 8.4 million purchases in 2020 were first-time buy(Above) Vivian Seaholm carefully loads a shotgun shell.

Leaders respond to difficult wildfire season N

Hilary Dorsey Staff Writer

early 450,000 acres of land have already burned across the state during this year’s wildfire season, Gov. Kate Brown announced during a wildfire briefing Tuesday, July 20. Nine large fires are currently burning.

“The weather conditions – windy and dry with lightning – are truly problematic,” Brown said. “It’s shaping up to be another difficult wildfire season.”

There are extensive drought conditions throughout the state, with 19 counties in drought emergencies.

Teams from Utah and California have partnered with Oregon to respond to the Bootleg fire in the Fremont-Winema National Forest in Lakeview.

“Being prepared is one of the best ways you can help frontline firefighters do theirs jobs,” Brown said.

“Make a plan with your family, sign up for local alerts at oralert.gov so you’re aware of fires in your community.”

Department of Forestry Fire Chief Doug Grafe said drought conditions across Oregon are driving the fire potential.

“Ninety percent of the state is in exceptional, extreme or severe drought conditions,” Grafe said.

The heat dome in late June – with 100 plus degrees – propelled the state into early fire conditions. There have been 580 fires to date.

“The future forest for the remainder of the season continues to look above normal dry and above normal temperatures,” Grafe said. “This is not going to return to normal anytime soon.”

Grafe said the Bootleg fire, the largest fire in the nation, has had 387,000 acres burned and is 30 percent contained. The fire began July 6.

Lines are established on the west side.

“The east side remains problematic,” Grafe said.

State Fire Marshal Mariana RuizTemple said significant work has been done on the southeast side. Lines are being secured and work is being done to contain the fire in and around community structures.

The Elbow Creek Fire began July 15 and has grown over 16,000 acres and is 15 percent contained, Grafe said. The fire is in the Grande Ronde River drainage near Mud Springs.

The Grandview Fire, reported July 11, located near Sisters, is now 72 percent contained and 6,032 acres burned.

“That’s going to be turned over to the local district this Thursday,” Grafe said.

Tillamook woman playing football at highest level 24 year-old mother of two to represent Pacific Conference in championship game Joe Warren jwarren@countrymedia.net Lani Boyce-Jennings, a 24 year old athlete who moved to Tillamook from Hawaii a little over six years ago, has been selected to represent the Pacific Conference of the Womens National Football Conference (WFNC) in a all star matchup next month.

The WFNC is revolutionizing women’s sports by bringing women’s tackle football to the world stage for the first time at a very high level.

Lani tried out last fall for the Oregon Ravens, a new team in the fairly new league of 20 teams across the country playing in the Pacific Conference.

“The team got started in 2019 but because of CO-

VID we didn’t have a 2020 season,” Lani said. “So this was my real first season with the team.”

Lani plays offensive line, linebacker and sometimes is put in as a half-back and even plays on special teams.

She moved to Tillamook in 2015 after graduating high school. She has twin daughters, Makhani and Mahana who are three years old and act at the teams unofficial cheerleaders, and officially Lani’s biggest fans.

Lani has worked at the cheese factory, among other jobs in Tillamook County and currently works full time at the Tillamook Country Smoker.

“We all work, we don’t get paid to play, we actually pay to play, to join the league and

travel,” she said. “It’s a juggle sometimes, with work, family and football, It’s busy but I work it out.”

Lani says she loves the sport and the opportunity. She comes from a large family who always played sports together. She grew up surfing the waters of Hawaii and played a lot of football on the beaches with family and friends.

“For anyone who says women can’t play football, I’m here to tell you, we can play,” she said.

Lani has long and curly black hair and big smile. You can tell she loves talking about her team and teammates and football in general. She also loves having the opportunity to workout, practice and play a sport she has always loved but has not been easily available to girls or women in the past, certainly not at this level.

“All I can say is follow your dreams,” she said. “I believe strength is what we gain from the madness we survive.”

Lani wears number 99 for the Portland based Oregon Ravens.

When she found out she made the all-pro list to play in the all-star game next month in Denton Texas, she quickly accepted the invitation. The game will be held on Saturday Aug. 7.

Lani has set up some social media areas you can donate to her trip to help offset costs at: Venom under lani_+ and Cash App under $Lani6428 or reach out to her on Facebook.

County to keep Gordon McCraw as on-call emergency manager following retirement Hilary Dorsey Staff Writer

Tillamook County Board

of Commissioners agreed during a meeting Wednesday, July 21, to keep retiring employee Gordon McCraw

as an on-call emergency management director in the emergency management department in the county commissioners office.

Chair Mary Faith Bell said McCraw’s retirement is set to begin Aug. 2 and it would be beneficial to hire McCraw on a temporary basis.

“Not only does he have knowledge of emergency management specifically, but also the bridge between counties and the state emergency management department, the bridge between counties and FEMA,” Bell said. “I think it’s in our best interest to have Gordon stick around and help us out with his institutional knowledge.”

The office of the emergency manager will now answer to the executive of the board of commissioners. Commissioner Erin Skaar agreed with Bell that it is important to being the position back to the county commissioners office.

“This is intended to be a transition and a bridge to get us from his retirement to having a new full-time person on board,” Skaar said.

Skaar said the council recently attended a Tillamook County Futures Council meeting and the community was clear that emergency preparedness is a priority.

“No matter what happens moving forward with Gordon’s position, please be aware there is a plan in place,” Vice-Chair David Yamamoto said. “We have had many discussions with the Fire Defense Board, and Adventist Health, and the sheriff’s office, 911 center, and everyone who needs to be involved in emergency management.”

The commissioners had a meeting Monday, July 19, with professional leaders of fire defense, as well as concerned citizens, and got information on how the county can improve emergency management moving forward, Bell said.

“Our emergency response is pretty darn good in Tillamook County because we have so much practice,” Bell said.

Bell said one of the areas that can be improved on is communication.

The commissioners approved the personnel requisition for a replacement grant-funded returning employee as an on-call emergency management director in the emergency management department, located in the county commissioners office.

TAPA cast back on stage after yearlong virtual rehearsals Still time to catch a show July 30-31 or Aug. 1, 6-8

Hilary Dorsey Staff Writer

Tillamook Association for the Performing Arts (TAPA) presents Agatha Christie’s “And Then There Were None” at The Barn Community Playhouse, located at 1204 Ivy Ave. in Tillamook.

Opening night was held Friday, July 23. Additional performances were held last weekend with more shows July 30-31, Aug. 1, 6-8. Friday and Saturday shows will be held at 7 p.m. and Sunday matinees are held at 2 p.m.

Chris Chiola is directing the production. The play was originally set to open before the pandemic began in March 2020.

Set in a mansion on an isolated island off the coast of England, 10 people are invited under a variety of pretenses. As they assemble, they are confronted with their pasts and each is accused of murder.

Michael Murphy, who plays Sir Lawrence Wargrave in the play, said he was excited for the opening show. He has not done acting in over 25 years and always likes it better when he has an audience. This is his first play with TAPA. He began acting in the fourth grade and did community theater.

“Instead of doing the rehearsing here, we did a lot of Zoom meetings,” Murphy said of rehearsals during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“That worked out pretty good because we could keep going over our lines.”

The cast had been rehearsing virtually since March 2020. Once cast members were vaccinated, they slowly started to come back to rehearsals at the playhouse.

“There were some people already here with masks and separated but I waited until I was vaccinated,” Murphy said. “Most people waited until they got vaccinated.”

Lora Ressler, who plays Dr. Armstrong in the play, said the role she plays was originally male but was changed to female. She said the cast has built camaraderie over the Zoom rehearsals.

“We did one act a week on Wednesdays over Zoom over 10 months,” Ressler said.

Once back in the theater for rehearsals, the cast went over multiple acts. Ressler said the year long rehearsals gave her ample time to memorize her lines.

“All those little tricks you try, I didn’t have to employ about half of them, which was nice,” Ressler said.

Ressler has been involved with TAPA since 2011 and has served on the board twice. She had never done theater before until a coworker told her to give it a shot.

She has been in 10 shows and has also worked behind the scenes. This is her second drama; she usually performs in comedies.

Cody Mann plays Anthony

Marston, a “speed hog” and inconsiderate driver. He talks a lot about his car and is accused of running over a couple of kids. Mann said his character and a nemesis compete for the attention of the secretary.

Mann has been in other TAPA plays in the past.

Becki Wilhelm plays Emily Brent, an old spinster type, self-righteous and unpleasant. Wilhelm said none of the characters in the play are very likeable.

Wilhelm has been involved in TAPA since the beginning, over 35 years ago. She said it is always good seeing new people and she hopes people will feel like they can come back to see the show.

Holly Dickson, who plays Davis, has also appeared in TAPA’s productions “Wait Until Dark” as Susy, and in “Nothing Serious” four years ago.

Dickson said the virtual rehearsals kept her going through quarantine. Her favorite scene is her fight with Philip Lombard near the end of the play.

Tickets are available online at tillamooktheater.com or you may reserve seats by calling 503-812-0275. Tickets are $10 for students 12 years and younger and $15 for adults 13 years and older.

s residents and visitors to Cape Meares know, the Cape Meares Loop Road that goes from Cape Meares Lake up to the Cape Meares State Park and down to Oceanside has been closed since 2013 due to major slides, leaving us with only one entrance to and egress from the community (Bayocean Road). Plans have been in the works for a long time to gather funds to change the path of that road and then reopen it. Chris Laity, Director of Tillamook County Public Works, reports that final rights-of-way are being negotiated. Once construction

L

ast week I mentioned house painting in progress on my Cloverdale bungalow. The project is complete as we go to press.

Spencer Morrow, grandson of Laurie Caspell of Hebo, traveled from central Oregon to paint the exterior of my upstairs. It looks wonderful.

It was a week of improvements on Parkway Drive. St. Joseph’s Catholic Church had a stand of fir trees cut down

by Walker Tree Service. And new lines were painted on the roadway on Wednesday as well.

It was reported last week by the Tillamook Community Health Center that Covid-19 is having a resurgence now, primarily among the unvaccinated groups (only one breakthrough case), with Tillamook County seeing forty two cases in the last two weeks. This would be knocking on the

begins, the endeavor will take about two years to complete.

Preliminary work will likely start in early winter due to migratory bird restrictions.

Once the project begins, expect some heavy truck traffic door of High Risk Level, if that system were still in place.

They are also seeing an uptick in other respiratory illnesses like influenza and respiratory viruses as folks gather indoor without face coverings now that restrictions have been lifted.

The vaccine remains the best tool for protecting yourself and your loved ones against Covid 19. We can either go through our local pharmacy, Primary Health Provider, or visit a vaccine clinic. They’re offered from 8:30 until 11:30 a.m. each Tuesday and Thursday at the Annex Building to the Community Health Center at 8th and Pacific in Tillamook.

With school out for summer, there may be more mouths to feed during the week. Several locations in Tillamook offer free lunch for anyone age 1-18. Visit

on Highway 131 or Bayocean Road, depending on how the contractor proceeds. The total cost of the project, from design to project completion, is estimated to be $21 million.

Tillamook County Public Works has provided $1.6 million of matching funds for construction. Many thanks to all concerned for getting this project on the road, so to speak.

Keep your eyes peeled for opah! No, not Oprah, but opah, a bright orange and blue tropical moonfish.

A dead one recently washed ashore at Sunset Beach, near Seaside. Personnel from the

Seaside Aquarium retrieved the 100-pound fish and are keeping it in the deep freeze for a school group to dissect this fall. Opahs live in temperate water in the tropics; it’s rare that they are found in Oregon. They can grow up to six feet long (this one was three and one-half feet long) and weigh more than 600 pounds. Wouldn’t it be fun to come across one on Cape Meares beach! Let me know if you see an opah or any other strange creature on your beach walks.

Here’s something you are more likely to see in Cape Meares than an opah: a black

bear. A small black bear was seen walking across Bayocean Road near 9th St. in the early morning hours of July 16, heading south into the woods. Years and years ago, we saw a black bear cub in that same area; interesting that they still favor that location.

Attacks by black bears on people are extremely rare. If you come across a black bear, authorities suggest you try to scare it away by standing and facing the bear directly. You should never run away from or approach the bear.

Summer visits from the grandkids are back in full swing here. Our grand-

daughter Noelle and a friend visited last week. Grandpa, aka Captain Pete, took them crabbing one day and they came home with 18 keepers.

We ate crab, sent some home with the girls, and kept some to freeze. Pete has a special freezing technique that leaves the crab tasting as good as fresh crab when you defrost it; we have crab melts yearround! The girls also enjoyed trips to the Blue Heron and the Creamery, beach walks, playing canasta and board games, and dressing up like pirates. There’s nothing like making memories with the grandkids.

Champion Apartments (4317 Brookfield Avenue) between 11:35-11:55 a.m., Tillamook County Public Library (Main Branch) or Glenhaven Apartments (403 Pine Avenue) from Noon-12:20 p.m. or Tillamook United Methodist Church (3808 12th Street) from Noon-12:30 p.m.

There are three Food Pantries in South Tillamook County. South County Food Pantry is located within the Nestucca Presbyterian Church (off of Brooten Road) in

Pacific City. They’re open from 12:30-6 p.m. on June 15 and 29. Pass it On Ministries is open from 10:00 a.m. until Noon on Tuesdays and from 1:00-3:00 p.m. on Thursdays, weekly. They’re located on Bunn Creek Road in Beaver. Hebo Christian Center (located across U.S. Highway 101 from Hebo Post Office) is open from Noon-2:00 p.m. on July 31.

The Pacific City-Nestucca Valley chamber of commerce will tour the newly remodeled Nestucca Valley Elementary (now a K-8) School when they meet next week. The event is planned for 12:-1:15 p.m. on Tuesday, August 3 at Nestucca K-8 School, which is located a mile south of Cloverdale on U.S. Highway 101. All are welcome.

Don’t forget that Neskowin Farmer’s Market happens from 9:00 a.m. until 1:00

p.m. weekly on Saturdays.

They’re located on the east side of U.S. Highway 101 at the corner of Summit Lane across from Neskowin Beach Wayside. For more information, go to neskowinfarmersmarket.com. Pacific City Farmer’s Market runs from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. on Sundays.

It’s located in the parking lot of South Tillamook County Library on Camp Street (off of Brooten Road) in Pacific City. While some vendors participate in both markets, many do not, so it’s worth attending both--or alternating between the two, if that suits your schedule and location.

Remember, too, that Tillamook County Community Health Centers have partnered with Community Action Resource Enterprise (CARE) to bring a needle exchange to Tillamook County. The “Harm Reduction Needle

Exchange” will provide safe injection needles, wound care supplies, Naloxone training and kits twice a month going forward. The free and anonymous services are offered from 11 a.m. until 1 p.m. on the first and third Wednesdays, monthly in the lower parking lot of CARE, 2310 First Street in Tillamook. For more information, call 503842-3940.

Happy birthday this week to: Tacy Bennett, Sara Christiansen, Noah Craven, Tawnya Dimmitt, Amy Elder, John Elder, Jack Hagerty, Kay Haltiner, Joshua Hopkins, Laura Hurliman, Spencer Hurliman, Owen Love, Damon McGee, Bill Rock, Hadley Schildan, Clint Sisco, Gary Smith, Patti Swirtz, Jacob Trent, Nicole Troxel, Emma Upright, Richard Warren and Tom Woodard.

O

h my gosh. Dale and I are feeling old. We have been spending lots of time helping our daughter get her home ready to put on the market. Painting, yard work, more painting, scrubbing everything and power washing.

I sure hope she appreciates our help. But then, she is so sweet, she makes it easy to help her.

The Lions Club are once again selling their hot diggity dogs at the wayside this weekend. With Dale’s stamp of approval, you can be assured you will have a good meal. The dates you can enjoy this scrumptious meal are Friday, July 30th through Monday, August 2nd. Bon appetit my friends.

Ann Swain’s Celebration of Life is Saturday, August 21st at 1pm at the St. Mary’s by the Sea parish hall. Be sure to jot that date on your calendar. Ann spent most of her life helping to improve our community. She has service awards from Neil Goldschmidt, Norma Paulus, Barbara Roberts, the Tillamook Community College and The Lions Club. She was truly a mover and a shaker in our community. “The greatness of a community is most accurately measured by the compassionate actions of its members.”

Linda Bagwell sent some more trivia that will be of interest to you. She said she suddenly wondered how many places between Rockaway to Astoria start with the letters “NE.” She wrote them down and then used a map to continue her search farther south. She then contacted a friend that had a book called Oregon Geographic Names, 6th edition, Lewis Ankeny McArthur (1883-1931). (My daughter would love that book!) Anyway, Linda wondered if the “NE” meant the same thing in each name.

Well, hang onto your hats!

Here are some explanations.

And these are her words. I couldn’t improve them.

Nehalem: Nehalem (Nahelem, Naalem) Indians were a Salish tribe. According to

Mrs. Jenny Williams means “a place to live”. In NW Oregon, “Ne” was frequently used to mean a plane or locality.

Necanicum River: Derived from “Ne-hay-ne-hum” the name of an Indian lodge on the stream. According to H, S, Lyman, the name is given as “Nehonikon” in 1887. In 1929 Herman Ahlers, the postmaster of Necanicum wrote the name meant, “gap in the mountain”.

Neacoxie Creek: Derived from Clatsop Indian word “Neahcoxie or Ni-a-kok-si”, the name of a village at the mouth of the creek. It is said to reference the small pine trees at the mouth of the creek.

Neawanna Creek: Earlier known as Wahonna, Ohannah or Wahaanah Creek, believed to have been named for a member of the R. W. Morrison family named Hannah.

However, in 1930 Miss Clara C. Munson of Warrenton investigated further. John Gill, historian of Chinook names, suggested it is closest to “Newanah”, meaning unknown but perhaps could refer to a place on the stream near a rapid or waterfall.

Neah-Kah-Nie Mountain: Joseph H. Frost’s diary, 1841, said mountain is called “Nea-karny” after a deity of the native Indians “who was sitting on the mountain, turned into stone which presented a colossal figure Ne-a-Karny”.

Silas Smith wrote that wrote that “Ne-kah-ni” meant “precipice overlooking the ocean, the abode of Ekhani, the supreme God”.

Nedonna Beach: not mentioned in book, could not find origin in Google search Nestucca: no translation into English. “The Handbook of the American Indians” says the Nestucca Indians took their name from the country in which they lived, but that their real name was “Stagaush”. J.H. Frost, in 1841 journal used the name “NeaStocka” in referring to a place on the Nestucca River.

Neskowin: On June 30, 1925 Mrs. Sarah Page wrote to the Oregonian that the word means plenty fish. One day she heard an Indian say as he pointed to the nearby stream, “Neskowin, Neskowin.” She asked him what that meant and he said, “plenty fish, plenty fish”. Neskowin was previously known as Slab Creek after a shipwreck that left a quantity of slab wood on the coast.

Neotsu: This is said to be Indian word referring to Devils Lake. The compiler could not get a satisfactory translation. There are a number of Indian legends about Devils Lake. Apparently it was known as a place where evil skoopkums fluorished. Davidson, in 1889 uses spelling “Ne-ahso”, but does not explain the word. The compiler has heard Devils Lake referred to as “me-sah’-chie chuck” which is Chinook for “evil water”.

Netarts: George Davidson, in the “Coast Pilot of 1889” refers to the bay as “Na-ta-at” or Oyster Bay. However, Oyster Bay is not a translation.

Mrs. Mildred Phelps Edner, a long time resident, said the original name was Oyster Bay (not from Indians) but changed to Netarts Bay after Post Office opened in 1870.

She said the best rendering of the Indian name would be “Ne ta ats”, but without a translation to English.

Nesika: not mentioned in the book, but google search says Nesika is a Native American (Umpqua) word meaning “Our,” thus Our Energy.

Nenamusa: Information about the origin of the name is unsatisfactory. It is said to be Indian meaning sweetheart or loved one but the compiler cannot trace any or meaning in any Indian dictionary.

It may have come from the Eastern states. Indians known by the writer had no knowledge of the sentiment of love as known to white people, or of the word sweetheart, either. The nearest approach to Nenamusa offered by the Chinook jargon is the expression “ne moosum” that means a place for a honeymoon, but all of that is conjecture.

I don’t know about you, but I found this totally interesting. Thanks for sharing Linda!

“On the shore of nature’s magic, I dreamed summer knew no end.” I love summer! That’s Rockaway Beach, “Sugar Coated!”

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Kid friendly escapes on the coast ruined

piles of trash, booze bottles and tarps. Feeling unsafe, I turned to leave, at which point I was able to observe a homeless couple “in flagrante” there on the bank, right out in the open. On the way back to the car there was suddenly a drunk argument between two guys who were parked two vehicles away. A string of expletives came from the back of a van with the door open. I could see from the trash and bottles around that they, too, had likely been in this area for quite a while.

Realizing I had parked in a homeless camp, I got in the car fast and got out of there.

I drove over to the day use area, parked illegally but momentarily by the dumpster, hollered for the kids and left - to fly our kits on a different beach in another town.

Between the public sex,

Last Saturday afternoon, sunny, beautiful, 1pm. The kids and I had a nice lunch at Grateful Bread in Pacific City. They wanted to fly kites on the beach. I pulled in to the day use area at the end of Pacific Avenue but all of the parking was full. I let the kids out to get set up while I looked for some parking. I found one more spot in the gravel parking area along the river, south of Pacific Avenue, next to the Green Acres Trail rides.

I wanted to take a moment to watch the cranes on the river before joining the kids, so I walked a few steps toward the river. Looking left I saw a hammock strung between two pines. One more step revealed

profanity and trash, this is not a kid friendly environment.

These vagrants showed every sign of being there for a while, with no effort to hide their tarps, ample trash, or their illicit behavior. I’m sure Pacific City officials are aware of the existence of this homeless camp. So, Pacific City, you’ll need to decide: will you be welcoming kite flying families who dine in your restaurants or will you instead be welcoming the homeless with their tarps, trash and vulgarity? You can’t have both.

I’ll be enjoying the beaches elsewhere and advising others to do so as well.

or the first time in what feels like a very long time, my calendar is booked up.

This weekend I will attend the first living showing of a TAPA performance, and I’ve blocked out the second week of August for Tillamook County Fair (it’ll be my first Pig ‘n’ Ford experience!). My scheduled also includes a full slate of Chamber sponsored events for the fall, including regular Sip + Shops, Mornings on Main Street meetings and Cork & Brew (more on that soon!)

You might be wondering how I manage to keep such a full schedule, especially considering that we just now started transitioning back into in-person gather-

The new building will contain many new classrooms and labs for our growing healthcare programs, along with much needed office space and a 360-seat community space that can be used for community meetings and events.

This facility will allow the college to continue growing and serving the people of Tillamook County with quality higher education opportunities.

Other exciting plans include developing a new nursing program over the coming year, along with making improvements to our new Center for Industrial Technology Building, which is across the street from the main cam-

he Oregon State Legislature just completed their biennium session where they develop and approve the state budget for the next two years. One of the other items they approve every two years are requests by colleges for capital construction funds to build new facilities. For community colleges, the maximum we can receive is $8 million or no more than 50% of the construction cost. I want to thank our four legislators that represent parts of Tillamook County for their strong support of the college and our request for the $8 million matching funds to help us bring our long-term vision of a new campus building one step closer. That is Senator Betsy Johnson, Senator Dick Anderson, Representative David Gomberg, and Representative Suzanne Weber. Thank you all very much!

The Legislature did approve our request and it is a great start toward the cost of our new campus building that is part of our Facilities Master Plan which will help prepare us for the future. The

pus. Then we will be able to start holding manufacturing and welding classes in there, hopefully before this coming academic year is completed.

More on these projects as they progress.

Over the coming months, we will be sharing more information with the community about our plans for the new facility and these other projects. In addition, we are completing our seven-year accreditation cycle this fall and will be developing a new seven-year strategic plan to take effect in 2022. Part of this process will involve engaging the public in discussions to help us craft our new vision and mission statements and overall direction for the college for the remainder of this decade. We will want to have as many Tillamook County citizens as possible involved in these discussions.

It is an exciting time for TBCC. We are working hard to ensure the college has the programs, services, and facilities available to meet the changing needs of students and to grow a trained workforce for local businesses. The future for TBCC is bright.

ings and events. My secret is the Tillamook Community Calendar.

You can access the calendar directly at TillamookLiving.com, but it also appears online in several places, including the Chamber website, the Headlight Herald website and the City of Tillamook website. It’s the largest, most widespread and most comprehensive listing of events in Tillamook County.

The community calendar is where I hear about weekend entertainment events and learn about the beloved community festivals that make Tillamook so great. It saves me a lot of time, because I don’t have to sift through multiple websites and Facebook pages to find details on various events. They are all in one place on the community calendar!

The calendar took a sort of hiatus during the COVID-19 pandemic, mostly because

there were few in-person community events happening.

But now that gatherings are allowed again, more and more listings are appearing on the community calendar.

For me, that means my personal schedule has started to fill up again. The same is probably true of anyone else who uses the calendar to find something to do. Once you know about it, your days of languishing around the house with nothing to do become a thing of the past!

But the community calendar serves a greater purpose than simply padding our social lives. It also gives you a way to get the word out about your own public events with a single submission that blasts to multiple websites. In short, the calendar is a free and easy marketing tool to reach a lot of people quickly.

Submitting an event to the community calendar is easy: You simply fill out a short online form with the name of your event, the dates and times it’s happening and a brief description of what it is. There’s even an option to upload a photo or flyer to generate even more excitement!

It feels great to be able to gather, attend live events and carry on with social life as usual again, and I’m glad to have the Tillamook Community Calendar to help me find and share events.

Grandparents continue to learn and grow and live healthier lives as a result of their interaction with their grandchildren. I know we feel a sense of celebration when we are with them – an emotion that is pure joy. It is with this in mind that I chose to honor Kin at Grandma Camp for his 78th birthday because I believe he is the best example of what a person should strive to be. I knew that the day I met him, and I still believe it today.

eanut butter and jelly don’t mix well with DVDs, audiobooks, and music CDs, and I am about to tell you why. While books can survive being tossed around, sat upon, dropped, and taken to the beach, discs are much more delicate. As someone who has been in charge of our professional disc cleaning machine at the library, I kid you not that I have opened up

to help others.

I’d like to share a message from my cousin, Pastor Richard Osburn. “There was a book written years ago by Hillary Clinton titled ‘It Takes a Village’. It was about how a community is needed to give a child a full life. I think that applies to the aged as well. It takes a community to grow old well. We are not alone, and for that, again I say, thanks be to God.” And I say “Amen” to that.

I’m closing with this quote from Rudolph Giuliani: “What children need the most are the essentials that grandparents provide in abundance. They give unconditional love, kindness, patience, humor, comfort, lessons in life, and, most of all, cookies.”

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

things apart, as toddlers are known to do. Toddlers are also known to like peanut butter and jelly...just sayin’!

But we were at the mercy of the manufacturers who made it impossible to even buy an item on tape anymore, let alone buy a player to enjoy them on. Now we are facing the eventual phasing out of disc media as well, as the companies that produce these things now want everyone to stream their products via the Internet. So, enjoy them while you can!

Back to life of the average DVD/CD. Librarians on our staff have many sources we can access that show us the upcoming new releases...be it movies, music, or books on CD. We build shopping carts with these items and we try to predict the popularity of the title when deciding how many copies to buy. The best place to watch for these new titles is on our webpage that highlights the new releases.

You can view this inventory and if you see an item you would like, you can put your name on the hold list so we can call you when the item is

available.

While the newest, hottest titles are the most popular, the library is famous for retaining a backstock of older titles that we know people will enjoy.

Whether you are in the mood for a western, drama, comedy, thriller, or an educational title, chances are we have plenty of options for you to take home.

If you have a computer and the Internet at home, you can take advantage of the many electronic or streaming options we offer for movies, TV shows, music, and audiobooks. Kanopy, Hoopla, and Library2Go are your best bets for these services and you can find them under the e-resources tab on our webpage.

Eventually, the discs in our system either break or just sit on the shelf, unwanted. Once we have determined the disc has lived out its useful life, we pull the item and discard it from the system.

If you haven’t checked out our impressive supply of DVDs and CDs recently, please stop by any of our libraries. But just one request... leave the peanut butter and jelly in the kitchen, please.

While VHS tapes and cassette tapes were phased out by the people who produced them in the interest of the clearer picture and sound on a disc, I have to admit that tapes survived much longer in the library system than the discs do today. It was not entirely uncommon to get 300 or more checkouts from a VHS movie “back in the day”, but we consider ourselves fortunate to get 75 “circs” (library talk for checkouts or circulation) out of a DVD. In fact, we have had some discs come back broken after only one or two checkouts, usually the victim of a toddler who likes to take

he airships protected thousands of lives, and saved ships from the threat of enemy submarines, a success story for the Navy. It exceeded the expectations of Navy Operations.

The airship’s goal was to protect the convoy ships that delivered goods, oil and every kind of product from the fields and factories to keep our economy in the USA stable. Prior to 1942, 454 ships were destroyed.

The submarines were an easy target for the airships, surface vessels and fixed-wing aircraft. That number decreased to just 65 in 1943.

The Airships made over 17,500 flights in the Atlantic and Pacific, accumulating 180,000 hours in the air.

During the first eight months of 1945, LTA (Lighter Than Air) ships along the West Coast were out 47,000 hours.

During the peak wartime operation, the month of March 1944, 119 airships were on the job. By the end of September 1945 only 30 were left. In all, 38 airships had been lost in missions and another 34 succumbed

to accidents. A total of 77 crewmen were killed and 6 ground handlers. Only one airship was destroyed by enemy actions. Most of the losses were due to personnel error or weather.

World War ll ended September 2, 1945. Naval Air Station Tillamook was reduced to Fractional Status.

Personnel were discharged or reassigned October 23, 1945.

The last two airships K-87 and K-97 departed. Two weeks later, on November 10, 1945, Blimp Squadron 33 and Attachment 3 were decommissioned. Although the era of Navy Blimps is gone, their outstanding contribution to the war effort will never be forgotten. We are proud and thankful for the men and women that served at Navy Air Station Tillamook. It was our pleasure that they gave up a part of their young lives to keep us safe. THANK YOU Jesse Embum shared with me her story. Jesse is a Tillamook girl, only 18, looking for a job. Her father served in the Navy during World War 1. She knows how to get things done.

The theme for our Grandma Camp was based on the book “Everything I Know I Learned from My Grandpa”

by Jack Sorenson. It’s a story about grandparents, and grandpas specifically. It also honors grandparents and what they have contributed to our lives and to their communities. There is a bond between grandparents and their grandchildren that allows important personal qualities such as empathy, gratefulness, and respect for authority to be passed on to their grandchildren. According to AARP close relationships with grandparents increases the tendency for children to respect authority figures outside their own home and they grow up to be more courteous and kinder. It continues with “A grandparent’s love is often the only uncondi-

She worked in a multipurpose building with a basketball court, also used as a dance floor. There was also a small store offering simple needs and wants for the Sailor’s, a library with a small collection of books, and there was a restaurant that served hamburgers, soda , ice cream and more.

Jesse worked in the restaurant. She also did a lot of other small jobs for whoever needed help. Sometimes she would set pins in the bowling alley. Jesse was small but strong, she was able to lift that heavy cage to load the pins into it. Lt. Buchanan, Lt. Garland and Lt Neely were her bosses and Captain Klien was Commander of the Station. Jesse loved to dance, so that basketball court had plenty of activity.

She won Jitterbug awards.

Jesse worked there until the war ended.

Also, the sailors were referred to as Sub-chasers and sub-Chaser Crews.

OBITUARIES Thomas Joe Noffsinger Nov. 30, 1954 - July 16 2021

T

homas Joe Noffsinger was born on November 30th, 1954 in Tillamook, OR to H.L. “Phil” and Genevieve Noffsinger.

Tom was raised in Taft OR, where he attended grade school, middle school, and most of high school (he attended Tillamook High for a partial year). Tom graduated from Taft High in 1973.

He only ever wanted to be like his Dad, a logger.

From his early teens to his father’s passing in 1992 he worked for and helped his family run Noff Inc., a local logging and trucking company based out of Tillamook.

In the mid-1990s he acquired and rebuilt one of his Dad’s original Peterbilt log trucks into a dump truck.

He drove it for several years doing jobs around Tillamook County, including hauling rock to help build the foundation of the local Fred Meyer.

In 2000 Tom attended Portland State University, where he completed a short course to become a certified

Mixologist (Bartender).

Tom would manage the Schooner lounge for a short time and even ran “Shipmates,” his own restaurant in the early 2000s in Netarts.

In the mid-2000s Tom would return to what he was best at. He worked several years for Marvin Hopkes and Hopkes Logging in Tillamook.

In 2014 he retired with nearly 40 years of experience in the logging industry.

Tom was a master mechanic and, like his Dad, could fix anything and everything.

His hobby was speed.

Tom had dirt bikes, motorcycles and several fast cars as a young man.

He rebuilt Harleys from the ground up in his late 20s.

In his early 40s he attended the Richard Petty Driving School twice in Las Vegas, Nevada.

He reached a top speed of over 140 Mph, and was only slightly disappointed to not hit the speed required to be offered a job teaching at the school.

After his retirement, he had his own shop built behind his house and always had several auto projects going on at one time, including multiple Corvettes and Harleys.

Over the past few years his collection would include but not be limited to, a Porsche, an El Camino, a former Copeland Lumber truck that he converted into a hydraulic dump truck, a Hummer, a limited production Dodge Viper pickup of which only 400 were ever made, and his final purchase,

Jean Elizabeth Starr Oct. 26, 1941 - July 16, 2021

a Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS. Family and legacy were important to Tom. Tom was very proud to have three sons who would hold the Noffsinger name, but he was most proud to be like his Dad was before him, Grandpa Noffsinger.

He spent a considerable amount of time with his grandchildren Rebecca, Dylan, Jackson, Jocelyn, Kinlee, Owen, and Ava. He was especially close to his oldest grandson Dylan, who unlike his father, shares his grandfather’s love of mechanics and automobiles.

It was Dylan who was side by side with him on his last day, doing yard work and helping grandpa.

Tom was loud, proud and unapologetic. If you frequented any of Tillamook’s local establishments, you’ve seen his face, heard his voice and knew his opinion.

On July 16th 2021, Tom passed away in the arms of his longtime girlfriend, Danna Seufert.

Tom is survived by his sisters Marlene Gidaro (Steve) and Cindy Noffsinger (Keith) His three sons Garrett (Tabatha), Darren, and Ryan His three nephews Grant, Trent and Adam Gidaro.

His seven grandchildren Rebecca, Dylan, Jackson, Kinley, Jocelyn, Owen and Ava. Tom was preceded in death by his father, mother, and his daughter Mary Beth.

Tom was put to rest, at the right hand of his father on July 24, 2021.

Admiration for an amoeba T

ired of avoiding selfrighteous folks’ rants on the left and right wings of the political divide? Tired of being told by media talking heads what to think? Afraid we are headed for secession by various rural areas that will then declare war on the “woke” cities? That would be very unpleasant, even dangerous, for vacation travelers who would have to deal with lots of bodies floating past them at picnic sites along scenic waterways.

Just like in Iraq, Afghanistan, the southern Philippines, Yemen, Colombia and other places our great nation and its proxies are helping people fight for freedom, it would just be another big mess with lots of corpses to bury.

You could stop reading here, if you have not already done so. I will not be offended.

But instead of stewing about the foregoing concerns, consider the slime mold Physarum polycephalum. Think of it in a good way, not a bad way. It is an excellent slime mold, a soildwelling amoeba with multiple nuclei that exists in the forest and causes no trouble for anyone. Like us, it eats only dead material (preferring oats and herbal matter).

It has no central nervous system or brain, but can find food, detour around troublesome substances and irritating situations. Physarum can even learn to accommodate what it dislikes but has found impossible to avoid. A mark of maturity, no?

It remembers things that are important to it, especially how to find what it wants and get to where it wants to go. Some people keep

slime molds as house pets; its spores remain content and do not spread around the home as long as it is fed well. There is even a “Slime Mould Collective” on the internet where one can discuss the admirable features of Physarum with other fans.

When researchers arranged its favorite food in clusters resembling the locations and comparative population sizes of Tokyo and other major towns around that region, the slime mold gathered around those food centers. In less than a day it extended its cytoplasmic parts and gradually created a proportional network of connections between them all, a network that closely resembled the Tokyo rail system which had taken years for engineers and urban planners to design and create.

Physarum depends on itself, goes its own way and cleans up its own messes.

Recognizing the slime mold’s unique capabilities, and desiring to harness them to benefit its students’ educations, Haverford College hired a hunk of Physarum as a scholar-in-residence.

Most importantly for today’s tightly ratcheted, hormone addled college and university students, and their growth to true maturity, it is politically non-partisan. If it could speak, it probably would advocate replacing outrage with compassion, personal responsibility for

self-absorption, and refusing to act out any more in social media dramas.

Physarum sounds very much like a fairly capable adult human. One could do worse than to be a grown-up more like Physarum and less like a lot of humans who, even though we do possess brains and central nervous systems, have been drugged and conditioned by social media to respond predictably to algorithmic stimulation.

Three years ago, I cut the umbilical cord that fed me an incredibly rich array of fabulous and fatuous Facebook material. Also, the notion that other social media platforms, advertisers, hackers, and other intruders wanted to attach themselves to me like ten thousand leeches was beyond creepy.

They crawled on my skin and in my head. Hence this tinfoil helmet I wear to ward off their attacks. The terrible price I pay for ignoring these digital siren songs is that I am now almost deaf to the dramas of “what is important now” and “totally new” and “breaking news,” all spawned in the digital realm to capture my eyeballs and fill up my time. (Full disclosure: I do miss seeing what all the hot actresses from the 1970s look like today.)

I can hear the digital leviathan, swarming, munching, devouring everywhere and everyone around me, but I am safe in my aluminum foil cocoon. I no longer lunge hungrily from outrage to outrage. I no longer try to be the first on my block to learn of (and broadcast eagerly to others) the arrival of the next dithering mass-intoxication.

In fact, I am always behind on big news of any kind, and have to hear about these astonishments from friends

more inclined than myself to be on top of things.

I do not know the reason they pursue and transmit this information so eagerly, certainly not to meet the requirements of informed citizenship. I think researchers Jonathan Haidt and Tobias Rose-Stockwell have found the real underlying reason for current social media carnage: “Human beings are made to gossip, preen, manipulate and ostracize, and social media platforms have been designed to make outrage contagious.”

Those who are younger than me (most people) and cannot think of a thing they and I have in common (except internal plumbing), one day will seek tranquility of mind. Of course, that is hard for them to conceive of just yet, let alone desire. They will find it when they need it, and then they will start to reflect on the many people, events, personal errors and happy accidents that helped them arrive at their thenpeaceful state (assuming that by then they have dumped social media platforms into the buzzing ether and stepped outside to blink in the sunshine).

We are just a bunch of muddled folks trying to dodge our way through the chuck-holed streets of a badly agitated, slowly eroding nation that now struggles against its own decline while trying to avoid a new civil war.

However, one thing: there is more to all this extravagant creation than meets the eye. A great force is moving nearby and has hopes for us. But it resides discreetly behind a veil, increasingly skeptical, but still waiting for us to become better than we presently are.

shooting.”

A dancer and volleyball player, Kennedy said shooting compares to other sports in that it requires a level of skill and athleticism, and also frequent practice, in order to advance and compete. There is more to it than swinging up a shotgun and squeezing the trigger.

A returning member of the clay target team, Seaholm is a ninth grader who joined the team at its inception in 2019.

She doesn’t recall having any trouble getting her ammo for that first season. Until the pandemic, she was still training at home and going to the gun range as well, back when it had ammo.

“Me and my mom look daily to find ammo,” Seaholm said.

“It’s definitely been hard; I haven’t been able to practice as I would like to prepare for the season. I just hope that it won’t set us back any farther than it already has. We’re trying our best.”

Seaholm’s friends are scrambling, too. And they’re relying on each other, the way teammates do. When one of them does find a supply of shells somewhere, they try to tip each other off, so that everyone has a chance to get a little. Competition season is coming up fast, and more training is what they all want.

“I love this sport,” Seaholm said. A cross-country runner and ballet dancer, she also drew comparisons to other athletic fields, saying shooting takes coordination, arm and upperbody muscles, and plenty of practice.

In light of the ammo shortage, one non-shooting training exercise Seaholm got from her coach is finger-tracking falling leaves the way she would follow a clay pigeon with her shotgun. Another one has her practicing opening the weapon, closing it as if during the loading process, and imagining the clay target and subsequent shot.

“I’m really excited for the season,” she said. “Everybody is working so hard to make it happen.”

Ninth-grader and returning shooter Dannika Goss noted that 2020’s season was a bust

because of the pandemic, which struck the U.S. as spring sports were right around the corner. In 2019 though, Goss competed at the state level with the team, and she was a state ambassador for the sport.

Goss is another shooter who’s lacking a proper supply of shells for the season. She never had an issue finding enough before, but now she’s forced to limit her training sessions and how much she uses up at once. The wider impact of the shortage also has Goss concerned. She’s become a dedicated trap shooter and she knows without a steady, plentiful supply of shotgun shells, the whole season is in danger.

“I would be practicing more, but I know that ammunition is low, and so I really need it for competition,” Goss said.

After all, who knows what’ll be available a month from now?

People are already buying half-boxes and even smaller amounts. Anything they can get.

A busy three-sport traditional athlete, Goss plays volleyball, basketball, and softball. She’s familiar with the concepts of working hard and practicing regularly because nothing worth doing is easy.

Ammo shortage aside, she’s dedicated to trap shooting and wants to go farther in the sport.

The biggest challenge this year might be doing that when shells are so scarce — there’s been none to find when her parents go searching in Portland, and nothing can be ordered or held.

First come, first served.

Pointing out the prohibition on hand-reloaded shells for competition, Goss said she would support allowing them, particularly since the supply of factory shells has dried up.

After shooting, Charlotte Phillips collects her empty shells in a bag on her hip for later reloading.

Charlotte Phillips is also in the ninth grade and returning to the clay target team. She shot black powder guns competitively before getting into trap shooting, and she competes in the Western Regional Independent Trap Association (WRITA) as well. She estimated needing 24 boxes of shotgun shells just for the school league, and another 54 boxes for the WRITA season, which is longer but also allows for hand-reload-

Tuesday, July 27, 2021 not just the recreational shooting enthusiasts who are out of luck, law enforcement agencies are also caught up in the shortage, struggling to find ammo for training.

Empty shotgun shells that could be reloaded and used again, though not in high school competitions. ed shells.

“I’ve been lucky that I’ve been able to get the things I need to reload for the WRITA events,” Phillips said. “But I do not have ammo currently for the high school league because for the high school league you have to shoot factory loads.

I typically reload shells, so I don’t have any factory loads right now.”

Phillips gave a “yes and no” on whether the high school league should be allowed to use reloads. She understands the safety issue, but when you shoot as much as she does, it gets really expensive unless you’re reloading the rounds you use.

“I didn’t start reloading until the pandemic started; I was shooting factory loads up until COVID hit and the ammo shortage happened,” she said.

Before that, she said it wasn’t an issue at all.

The shortage is starting to hurt for Phillips, who said her scores are dipping down the less she shoots. In the past, she would hit the range twice

a week and run through two to four boxes of shells at a time.

That dropped to about half, and then it stopped altogether a few months ago when practice ammo ran out, leaving only precious competition shells.

The dry-spell was broken recently thanks to gifts from strangers via social media.

After scouring the stores and looking online and coming up empty-handed, Charlotte’s mom Rocky made a desperate plea on Facebook that was then shared by an extended family member in the Hillsboro area, resulting in three generous shooting enthusiasts offering donations of 500 primers for reloading (a hot item on the market) and 10 boxes of loaded shells. It couldn’t have come at a better time.

“It just floors us as parents because it’s been a real struggle to keep her shooting,” Rocky said. “It’s not an easy sport to be in because it’s expensive.

Before the pandemic, ammo was anywhere from $5 to $7 a box, and when you multiply that by however many weeks there are in the year, that’s why we started reloading.”

It’s worth the effort and the money to Charlotte. She values the time out of the house, the stress relief, the social engagement — it’s like a big family at the gun club. And when she’s shooting, she’s able to focus on the sport and forget about her worries for a while. For her, it’s as much a mental game as it is physical.

“I plan to continue shooting trap through high school and hopefully in college,” Charlotte said. “I’ve met the coach from Eastern Oregon, and he told my parents if I stuck to shooting, there’s a spot for me on the team, and it’s my spot to lose.”

Coach struggles to supply team Steve Schwend is the head coach for the Tillamook High School Clay Target Team. He said the team budgeted $3,000 for the specific shotgun shells the team needs to train and compete this season, but there was nothing out there to buy, and rules prevent the use of reloaded ammo for safety reasons. Schwend also attributes the ammo shortage largely to national civil unrest and the fear of a social collapse.

There are some workarounds to training without ammo — dry-firing drills, practice ammo and lasers are increasingly common. But there is no replacement for the muscle memory and reaction development of live-fire training.

Alternatives to shooting come with a cost as well, which is a burden for school teams like Tillamook’s.

“We’ve got orders in with all the local gun dealers and ammunition suppliers, and they just kind of laugh,” Schwend said. “They’re like ‘we can’t even get our hands on it.’”

One of those local gun shop owners (he asked that his name be withheld) said he saw sales spike when the coronavirus pandemic began, which he mostly chalked up to increased unemployment benefits that gave people more money than they would typically earn. It escalated when the protests and riots kicked off, he said.

Just as happened with toilet paper when COVID-19 broke, he said the panic buyers saw ammo shortages trending in the media, inspired by chaos in the cities, and they cleared the shelves everywhere. And it’s

Law enforcement training is impacted Detective Sgt. Nick Troxel, Tillamook Police Department, ordered 7,000 rounds of 9mm for shooting range practice in August of 2020. The shipment didn’t arrive until April 2021 — eight months later.

He’s been the range master for the department for more than a decade and he’s never had a problem getting ammo orders filled, usually keeping from 6,000 to 10,000 rounds on hand for eight to 10 officers to train.

The department provides all the ammunition for both training and duty, and uses shotgun slugs, buckshot and .223 rifle ammo along with 9mm. Luckily, due to a previous overorder, TPD hasn’t had to order the other types of ammo this year, as they are equally scarce right now.

With the new budget cycle starting in July and no sign of the shortage ending, Troxel is planning to place another order as soon as the funds are available, knowing it could be months before he sees delivery, and that’s if anyone is still accepting orders at that point, as backlogs grow longer by the day.

Troxel said the vendor the department uses for ammo attributes the shortage in part to limits on production stemming from coronavirus pandemic safety mandates that restrict the number of employees allowed in facilities. Troxel questioned if there isn’t a way to adapt and overcome, giving the local school system as an example of problem-solving to reopen operations.

To stretch what they do have, TPD has been discussing training alternatives. There are a variety of options: lasers that monitor dry-firing techniques, video simulator systems, and simulated ammunition are growing in popularity, for example. In Tillamook, they are considering conversion kits for their pistols that would allow them to fire .22 rounds, which are cheaper and more available.

The drawback is the training isn’t the same, which could affect how prepared officers are in the field.

“Thankfully, we placed this order back in August, otherwise I think we would have been in a whole other world of hurt at this point,” Troxel said.

As it stands, TPD has had to get creative with training scenarios and reduce the frequency of range visits. An April training session would have looked fairly different if that ammo shipment hadn’t finally arrived.

Faced with a bare-bones training budget, getting high-tech equipment is unlikely, and there is a long waiting list for stateowned simulation technology that departments can borrow.

Troxel confirmed that the ammo shortage isn’t affecting what officers carry on duty, which comes from a separate stock that is sufficiently supplied.

“We try to shoot at least once a month, if not every three months we’re out shooting, and just haven’t been able to do it,” Troxel said, adding that the last training occurred this past fall.

“We’re way overdue.”

A spokesman for the Tillamook County Sheriff’s Office also reported delays in receiving ammunition orders, as did other agencies around the state.

Manufacturing issues at root of shortage Perhaps the biggest issue though comes from the top — suppliers are scrambling to fill orders. Christensen said some orders that would normally take two or three months now take upwards of nine months to fill.

Wholesalers fill some gaps, but often with strings attached on purchases, such as buying a certain firearm or other ammo as part of an order. And then there’s the pop-up online businesses including the ammo scalpers. Business owners have to look everywhere these days.

Christensen said he’s gone from having a third of annual sales as backordered ammo to having triple the total sales in backordered ammo.

“It has definitely been a challenge,” Christensen said. “I could pay my house off like 17 times with the amount of ammo I have backordered.”

Manufacturers are battling to keep up, reportedly producing record amounts to feed consumers. But logistical issues with raw materials, such as

with black powder produced in Australia — which suffered terrible wildfires this past year, and where dock worker strikes affected shipping — are hitting every aspect of the industry.

From aluminum shortages due to changes in recycling to the regulatory ban on lead foundries in the U.S. (recycled lead must be used), any single thing could jam up the supply chain, let alone the combination of so many hindrances.

Christensen is hopeful the ammo shortage trend won’t last beyond the next two years. He doesn’t think it’s a long-term problem, but extended demand could reshape the economics of the ammo industry. He said the heavy demand should lead to increased supply, but the logistical challenges must be overcome.

Federal, CCI, Speer and Remington President Jason Vanderbrink posted a YouTube video regarding the ammo shortages in December 2020. In the video, he said he was tired of harassment and conspiracy theories, and that his companies were hard at work to produce ammo — an estimated 700 million rounds desired by the market.

“It takes months to train people … you gotta get the raw materials, and on top of that all, we’re dealing with a pandemic,” Vanderbrink said. “Please squash the rumors; you don’t have to believe everything that’s out on the internet … we are doing everything we can to meet this demand.”

Vanderbrink recently announced the return of a major Remington ammo plant in Arkansas. The lack of production at the plant, one of the largest in the U.S., contributed to the overall supply chain problem, according to American Rifleman.

Jason Hornady of Hornady Manufacturing Company also released a YouTube video this past December. He said the company produced a third more than in 2019 to meet the “overdemand” on ammo. Hornady also denounced conspiracy theories and rumors about the ammo shortage. Hornady said despite efforts to increase capacity, production is simply maxed out.

“We promise we are shipping everything we can,” Hornady said. “The stuff that goes out today was literally put in a box yesterday.”

But some kinds of ammunition aren’t being made at all. In the hustle to keep the popular rounds popping, less used or specialty types are being squeezed. The time it takes to recalibrate machines is money lost. And why gamble on a possible sale when you have a sure thing?

The president of specialty ammo manufacturer Black Hills Ammunition, Jeff Hoffman, recently gave an interview to Outdoor Life in which he noted that the government is among those competing for the limited supply of bullets on the market. Hoffman supplies the government, commercial stores, gun companies, and law enforcement. But the military orders have the ultimate priority.

“We’re not only morally and ethically bound to take care of the military, which I feel we are, but we’re contractually obligated to take care [of those orders],” Hoffman told Outdoor Life. “The military has preferences along the way. So, there is some level of competition over machines with this stuff.”

While Hoffman said his company, which does the majority of its business with the military, hasn’t seen a surge in military ammo purchasing, he acknowledged that it doesn’t have the capacity to answer the call for more civilian product because Black Hills is dedicated to fulfilling its government contracts, despite the possible temptations of the lucrative commercial market in its present condition. Hoffman also scoffed at rumors that manufacturers are sitting on their supplies to drive up prices.

“I’m not wishing to insult anybody, but people who think that way have never really been in business,” Hoffman told Outdoor Life.

“They don’t understand how economics and capitalism work. We’re in business to sell stuff.”

Meanwhile, back on the range in Tillamook, the student athletes of the high school trap shooting team will continue treating every round of ammunition like a precious commodity, and making sure every shot counts.

TILLAMOOK COUNTY WELLNESS

Be prepared - not scared: Emergency preparedness takes on new meaning Laura Swanson Tillamook County Wellness Advisory Committee Member

Be Prepared – Not Scared: Emergency Preparedness Takes on New Meaning in Tillamook County after 2020’s Pike Road Fire Tillamook County is known for its emergency preparedness – for storms, winds and floods. Last year’s wildfire in Bay City was a different kind of emergency. With the early onset of wildfire season in 2021, the Tillamook County board of commissioners gathered local fire departments, state forestry, and county agencies to review the Pike Road fire response and make plans to do better. One of the most important keys for residents is being prepared for ANY emergency and knowing where to go to get accurate information. “One of the most important things people can do is signup for alerts,” said Tillamook County Emergency Manager Gordon McCraw.

“If you don’t have a landline anymore, our Everbridge Alert Notification System – when we call you to evacuate – works for the numbers you register, but you gotta signup.” Here is the link to https://oralert.gov/ and it’s

easy to signup. Nixle alerts is another system that Tillamook County uses as well at www. nixle.com.

The extreme wildfires in southern and northeastern Oregon and elsewhere in the region have fire-fighting resources stretched thin according to Kate Skinner, Tillamook District Forester. That’s why it’s even more important that people are prepared and aware of the extremely dry conditions. Most areas of Oregon are under full fire closures. If you are travelling, it’s always a good idea to carry a shovel and several gallons of water. There have been numerous reports of “spot” fires along highways that have been extinguished or stopped from spreading by aware, prepared travelers.

“We know folks are experiencing some stress over the Tillamook State Forest Game Hog Creek Fire, which is now in the mop up stages, so this is an excellent opportunity to set up your emergency preparedness game,” said McCraw. “When you’re prepared for an emergency, any type of emergency, it gives you and your family peace of mind knowing – hey – we’ve got a plan, we have our go-bags, we know what to do.”

Understanding what to do

Crispy Parmesan Baked Fish Prep Time: 20 minutes Cook Time: 15 minutes Ingredients - ¾ cup plain breadcrumbs - ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese - ¼ teaspoon thyme - ¼ teaspoon onion powder - 1/8 teaspoon paprika - ¾ cup nonfat or 1% milk - 2 pounds fish fillets (try any white fish) Directions 1. Wash hands with soap and water.

2. Preheat oven to 500 degrees F. Lightly grease a baking sheet.

3. In a small bowl, mix together breadcrumbs, cheese, thyme, onion powder and paprika.

to increase your safety can help address that fear, and if or when you need to evacuate, you can do so safely and be sure to bring: • An emergency food and water supply.

• An emergency medicine supply. Make a plan to keep medications that need refrigeration cold.

• Emergency power sources for medical devices and flashlights (don’t forget extra batteries).

• Safety and personal items, including a face covering and hand sanitizer to protect against COVID. Remember: face coverings do not protect against wildfire smoke.

• Important documents, including medical documents, proof of vaccination, wills, passports and personal identification.

During an emergency is NOT when you should be assembling your go kit or go bag. Now’s the time to do that. Here is a helpful resource with a list of what to include: https://www.ready. gov/kit. And this website is a great resource for up-to-date information about wildfires across the region: https://wildfire.oregon.gov/ Be Prepared – Not Scared.

Tillamook County is ready

4. Place crumb mixture on a flat plate or sheet of wax paper.

5. Dip fish fillets in milk, then press into crumb mixture to coat all sides. Discard leftover crumbs and milk.

6. Place fish on baking sheet in a single layer. Bake until fish reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees F using a food thermometer or until fish is opaque and separates easily with a fork. This will take about 15 minutes, but depends on the thickness of the fish.

7. Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours.

Notes • Use leftover cooked fish to make fish tacos or add to salads.

Florence: Her history is a mystery. She was brought in with two other mom cats, all with kittens, but clearly had had contact with people.

Kittens now grown, she’s reconnecting with toys and the pleasures of life as an only cat. Girly features, slim physique. Occasional lap cat. Affectionate for brief periods and quick to purr.

Needed no settling-in time. Still adapting to current house rules — no jumping on kitchen counters or dining table, no chewing on edges of cardboard scratching post (which she used immediately), no play bites (which are harmless, but still).

Pleasing personality.

We now have a cat application and a dog application.

Here are the two links. If you are applying for something other than a dog or cat please use the cat one.
