Big step for TBCC

Volunteers spiff up Tillamook Senior Center

By Joe Wrabek For the Headlight Herald

So the college’s board of directors several years ago decided it wanted TBCC to be a fully accredited, comprehensive college. But it takes at least seven years for a community college to achieve accreditation.

Said Green, “[The Northwest Com-

The 76-year-old Tillamook Senior Center is getting a facelift, including: • New paint on the walls and ceiling • A bigger kitchen, with new appliances • Improved insulation • And new windows and flooring.

All provided by volunteers.

The work stems from an appeal in late December asking for help updating the 1938-vintage building, which “is way past due for major repairs and upgrades,” said coordinator Barbara Renteria.

The senior center’s income, generated by renting part of its building to Meals on Wheels and from rummage sales, dues and occasional donations, wasn’t paying even the wintertime power

Tillamook Bay Community College recently earned its independent status as an accredited college, giving faculty the freedom to create programs unique to Tillamook County’s culture.

30 years in the making – college earns accreditation

by Sayde Moser smoser@countrymedia.net A long-awaited letter arrived Jan. 23: Tillamook Bay Community College now is officially accredited.

Since its inception more than 30 years ago, the local two-year college has been operating under the instruc-

tional guidance of Portland Community College. That association has served to make TBCC’s classes viable, said the school’s president, Connie Green.

Yet even at that, she said, until 10 years ago at least 70 percent of TBCC’s classes were not recognized for academic credit by four-year universities.

ODOT has big plans for Tillamook

by Sayde Moser smoser@countrymedia.net You don’t hear any jackhammers at work in downtown Tillamook, but that doesn’t mean the Oregon Department of Transportation isn’t progressing with its plans for a redesigned intersection of State Highway 6 and U.S. Highway 101.

“You won’t be seeing a whole lot of us in the field right now,” acknowledged project manager Ken Kohl. Instead, ODOT’s focus is on tightening down the design so the highway department can begin its right-of-way negotiations.

“That process is very lengthy and involved,” Kohl told the Headlight Herald. “We’re anticipating that could take a year to 13 months” for the negotiations to conclude.

Once that process has ended, he said, ODOT is shooting for the summer of 2015 to let construction bids for the complex project.

The construction will include widening Main and Pacific avenues by 1 to 2 feet from Fourth Street to First Street.

The work also will include creating a new segment of the highway (where the Mar Clair Inn currently sits), replacing the bridge over the Hoquarten Slough, and widening the highway to the east of the bridge by another 1,000 feet or so.

The Tillamook intersection is one of seven regional projects ODOT has in the works, one result of the Jobs and Transportation Act passed in 2009. Of those seven in the highway department’s region 2, which includes Tillamook County,

The Oregon Department of Transportation’s basic redesign of the Oregon Highway 6 and U.S. Highway 101 intersection in downtown Tillamook includes widening Main and Pacific avenues, as well as widening the bridge over the Hoquarten Slough. the Tillamook intersection ranks number five in cost.

A total of 40 projects statewide are being funded under the act.

The projects were selected based on how long they’ve needed attention, said ODOT public information officer Lou Torres. “This project has been around a long

time,” he said, “but there was no funding for it. So it got pushed up as a priority project.”

Once the state’s redesign plan has been finalized, said Kohl, ODOT will sponsor a handful of local open houses – likely in April – to discuss the upcoming work with members of the community.

Until then, updates are available online at tillamooktraffic.org and at tillamookheadlightherald.com.

“Big projects like this are going to have periods that seem really quiet and folks think it’s been put on the back burner again,” Khol said, “but we’re still moving forward.”

City street plans won’t deter moving the Carlich House

Plans for a new street running through Tillamook’s Hoquarton Park won’t prevent moving the historic Carlich House into the park, Tillamook Urban Renewal Agency board members learned Feb. 12.

The urban renewal group is involved because its money would help pay for moving the historic house and placing it on a new, permanent foundation in the park.

The Oregon Department of Transportation’s concept for reconfiguring U.S. Highway 101 at the entrance to Hoquarton Park will be accessible only to traffic headed north on the highway. Southbound travelers won’t be able to access the park, Tillamook City Manager Paul Wyntergreen told the urban renewal agency.

The proposed street – “It might be just a driveway,” Wyntergreen said – would run from the parking lot in Hoquarton Park to where Madrona Avenue, at the rear of the county courthouse, intersects First Street, which is the westbound half of State Highway 6. The new street would run through the county’s employee parking lot.

The street potentially would

have an impact on the historic Carlich House, which was going to be moved from its present location on First Street further north into Hoquarton Park.

The old house, which sits on county property, originally was to be demolished so the county could expand its parking lot. But in a deal struck last year, the building is to be leased by the county to the Bay City Arts Center, which had planned to move the structure into Hoquarton Park and repurpose it as an interpretive center.

The proposed new street would run either through or very close to where the arts center had planned to relocate the house.

“Some people were incredulous” when they heard about the street plans, said Bay City Arts Center vice-president Charlie Wooldridge. “Others thought it would be fabulous; more exposure, better access.”

Tillamook Mayor Suzanne Weber suggested that the new street would be “a real opportunity for exposure for the Carlich House.” She said the house could be turned a bit to avoid the route of the new street. “It will look like we always intended it to be there,” said Weber.

Course graduates will test their skills in a drill set for Saturday, Mar. 8 at the Calvary Bible Church in Manzanita. The church is one of the three currently designated emergency shelters in north Tillamook County.

The shelter training is being organized by the Emergency Volunteer Corps of Nehalem Bay. Persons interested in attending are asked to email Larry Wiedenhoft at arc@ wiedensoft.com.

Healthy mouth, Happy wallet.

The historic Carlich House presently sits on First Street in Tillamook. Plans to move it into Hoquarton Park and turn it into an interpretive center came into question when the city proposed a new street that would run through or very near the proposed location for the house.

By Joe Wrabek For the Headlight Herald

need not be Red Cross volunteers to attend the training.

“If and when a disaster strikes, the Red Cross may not be able to send volunteers from outside the area to help us,” said organizer Peter Nunn. “We may need to rely on ourselves run shelters for our displaced residents and visitors.”

“Here is an opportunity to learn from the experience of the Red Cross, so we are better prepared to cope with an emergency,” he added.

GUEST COLUMN

The snowy plover predicament

By Andy Norris Manzanita resident As residents of Tillamook County, we should thank the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department for giving us the opportunity to assist in the recovery of the world’s dwindling population of snowy plovers. We are morally bound to preserve the totality of God’s creation, not just the plants and animals for which we have a personal affinity.

I have been enjoying the wildlife and solitude of the spit at Nehalem Bay State Park for seven years now, several times a week, year round. I have seen snowy plovers passing through during migration. Twice I have read in the paper that snowy plovers haven’t been seen in the park since 1984. That is incorrect; no breeding pairs have been observed since then.

Non-breeding individuals have been observed.

A similar recovery program in Cape Cod, Mass. (where my father lives) designed to help the snow plover’s East Coast cousin, the piping plover, is proving to be extremely successfully. That program is not without its detractors however, and, taking a page from the anti-spotted owl crowd, bumper stickers grace the back of the occasional vehicle reading “piping plovers taste like chicken.” (That plovers probably taste more like a salty wild duck is beside the point.)

The knee-jerk reaction to the snowy plover program by the Tillamook County Commissioners is disappointing, but not surprising. I do have a question

for the commissioners who have stated prohibiting bicycles constitutes “significant overreach” and “you’re restricting family access.” Have any of you ever been out on the spit at Nehalem Bay State Park? I thought not.

Otherwise, you would know it is an extremely low traffic area, not a high traffic area as you claimed. Also, I have never seen a family on the spit.

I occasionally see individuals, couples, and dog walkers but most of the time nobody at all.

(The dog walkers, incidentally, always have their dogs off the leash on the spit, though it is a violation of log standing and current park rules. Perhaps if dogs had been on leashes for the past three decades, as per park regulations, we would already have a healthy population of breeding plovers.)

The county commissioners, who clearly do not understand animal behavior, also claim that bicycles do not harm plovers.

Really? Do any of you hunt?

Motion scares animals. That’s why we hunt in blinds and out of sight. Bicycles (and horses) can do immeasurable harm to nesting plovers. This is a moot point however, as visitors ride bicycles on the bike trails, not the spit, whose soggy sand isn’t navigable after a rain.

The commissioners did get one thing right. In a letter to the OPRD, the commissioners wrote, “We find it very difficult to believe that plovers would choose to nest this close to… human and animal traffic.”

That fact, sirs, forms the basis for the entire snowy plover recovery program.

READER’S OPEN FORUM Big snow, good neighbor, big heart It was Friday afternoon and I was shoveling some of the snow from around the doors and from the handicap parking spaces at the Tillamook Seventh-Day Adventist Church. The parking lot was a mess of snow.

I wasn’t paying much attention to the traffic, but was aware of a big tractor with a big liquid spreader behind it pulling in to the shared driveway of our parking lot.

I assumed it was going to the dairy behind the church, but then, the driver, a big man with the name CARL printed on his coveralls came walking over to me. He said that he had noticed me shoveling

the snow and stated that he had a wide bucket on his tractor and would be willing to scrape off the parking lot for us.

He said that although he is not a member of our church that his doctor is and he likes him. I guess I just stood there with my mouth hanging open stammering for an answer. He said he would have it done by 8 o’clock in the morning, then climbed back into his tractor and drove away.

Soon after I returned home I received a call saying there would be no church service due to the weather and road conditions. The only name I had was Carl, But I managed to track him down and with much thankfulness cancelled the clearing job.

Thank-you Karl Zweifel for being a wonderful neighbor!

I only hope that I can do as well if the opportunity presents itself. Let us all strive as members of this community to be that kind of neighbors too.

If anyone would like to volunteer to be on the advisory committee please send me a resume of your experience to biggs@ tillamookbay.cc.

Thanks you for your help.

Introducing the Travel Tillamook County Advisory Board Dan Biggs Executive Director, Economic Development Council Last November the voters of Tillamook County overwhelmingly approved the Transient Lodging Tax, which is estimated to generate $1.5 million each year for the County; 30 percent of those funds will be used to improve county roads and, by Oregon statute, 70 percent will be used for tourist promotion and infrastructure.

The results from promoting our county will be a “game changer” for the tourism sector of the local economy. Marketing Tillamook County will enable us to reach the goal set at last year’s Tourism Symposium of generating $400 million in destination spending each year by the end of the decade. This will put us on par with the destination spending in Clatsop and Lincoln counties. Currently Tillamook County generates only $180 million per/year, so we have a long ways to go. The beauty of destination spending is that the money is spread throughout the county at many businesses from lodging providers to restaurants, shops, guide services, grocery stores and many, many more.

To implement the promotion of our county, The Economic Development Council of Tillamook County (EDC) has signed an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) with the Board of County Commissioners to manage and disperse the funds collected from the lodging tax. To maximize the opportunity to promote the county, the EDC is setting up an organization, called Travel Tillamook County, which will be the vehicle through which our promotion efforts will reach out to the traveling public. To help the EDC with this task, we

are recruiting nine citizens from throughout the county to volunteer to serve on an Advisory Committee (AC) to the Board of Directors of the EDC. Advisory committees offer advice on specific issues facing an organization such as developing marketing plans, managing costs, introducing potential partners, suppliers and consultants to help the organization prosper. But perhaps the most important function is helping the organization stay focused on their mission, by providing advice on specific tasks that needs to be addressed to insure success. In setting up the advisory committee the EDC is following the same advice that our Small Business Development Center gives to any Tillamook County business creating an advisory committee, which is to: • Identify a clear objective for the advisory committee.

In our case, the objective was described in Ordinance #75, which states that the purpose of the Tourism Advisory Commit-

tee shall be to advise the EDC on proposed policies for the use of Tillamook County TLT funds; strategies for tourism promotion; the needs assessment for tourism-related facilities in Tillamook County; and such other matters involving tourism promotion or tourismrelated facilities as might be requested by the EDC or the Board of Commissioners.

• Look to recruit the right mix of people to work on tightly focused issues they’re knowledgeable about so we can address specific problems or challenges that need to be solved.

• Put everything in writing.

The advisory committee will make documented recommendations to the EDC Board so that both the AC and EDC Board will have a clear record of the recommendations.

• Comply with Oregon’s open meeting law. Each advisory committee meeting will be open to the Public and there will be time allocated for public comment. The EDC

The council informally discussed the new transient room tax rate proposed by the county commissioners at their June 3 meeting and decided to make it an official agenda item June 17 to try and clarify some of their questions.

City Manager Paul Wyntergreen gave the council the rundown, but stated that one of the issues seems to be the new pieces of information that keep coming up.

“It’s a lot of information and it is morphing all the time,” he said, adding that the two ordinances on this matter that will be discussed in two public hearings with the commissioners on June 26 and July 10 came in only minutes before the council meeting – making it difficult to review them in much detail.

The proposed transient lodging tax (“even the acronyms are shifting as we speak,” Wyntergreen told the council) would appear on the November ballot as a nine percent tax with an eight percent credit back to the cities that already have a TLT of their own. Seventy percent of the money raised would be cycled back into promoting tourism in the county.

The other 30 percent has

Early 4th of July parade in downtown Tillamook.

By Joe WraBek

jwrabek@countrymedia.net

Tillamook has always had parades.

Tillamook’s first Dairy Parade was in the 1920s, over a decade before the first National Dairy Month was declared in 1939.

(Dairy Month had started in 1937 as National Milk Month.) The Tillamook Dairy Parade as we know it today began in 1957. It had

28 entries and was delayed by rain. (That may have been the last time a parade in Tillamook County was delayed by rain.) The big event that year was the cow milking contest between Tillamook County’s mayors.

By 1961, besides the Dairy Parade (which concluded with the crowning of the Dairy Princess), there were milk drinking and ice cream eating contests, a tug-of-war between Lions

Rose City Banjoliers

in the 1958 Dairy Parade.

and Kiwanis, and four mayors were still participating in the cow-milking contest.

The Tillamook County Creamery Association (TCCA) took over sponsorship of the Dairy Parade in 2003, “to ensure such a historic event was able to continue,” TCCA’s Tori Harm told the Headlight Herald.

Today, the Dairy Parade is the third-largest parade in Oregon, and one of the

county’s biggest tourist draws. The parade begins at the Tillamook County Fairgrounds, picks up some of its more than 150 entries along Third Street, and winds through downtown Tillamook. Theme for the 2013 Dairy Parade is “Clowning Around.”

The Dairy Parade is followed later that day by the Tillamook County Rodeo, held at the Fairgrounds.

Yappy Days benefits Tillamook Animal Shelter

By JuliuS Jortner

For the Headlight Herald

Yappy Days took place on Saturday June 15, on the sidewalk in front of the Inn at Cape Kiwanda in Pacific City. More than 100 people and more than 30 dogs attended.

Booths offered homemade dog sweaters, treats and toys, face painting for people, raffles of items interesting to humans as well as dogs, dog baths, a microchip insertion service, and general information from the animal shelter. There was a dog wash and Sydney Elliott of Beaver sang with guitar accompaniment.

The event, which has been held annually since 2008, is mounted by the Inn for the benefit of the Tillamook Animal Shelter. According to Susanne Johnson, chairman this year, Yappy Days has raised about $5000 for the shelter in the last five years.

Among other help they offer, the shelter rescues dogs and finds them homes. Joel

Oregon’s Merkley touts new farm bill

By Joe Wrabek For the Headlight Herald After more than two years of wrangling, a new five-year farm bill is about to become law.

President Obama signed it late last week while on a trip to Michigan, the home state of Sen. Debbie Stabenow, who chairs the Senate Agriculture Committee.

The U.S. Senate and House had passed drastically different versions of a farm bill in 2013 and a SenateHouse conference committee spent months trying – in the end, successfully – to iron out the differences in a way both legislative bodies would support.

The Senate vote Feb. 4 was 68-32, said Martina McLennan, press secretary for U.S. Sen. Jeff Merkley of Oregon.

Merkley hailed the elimination of agricultural subsidies in the Farm Bill as “a generally good idea. The subsidies were for folks not growing anything.”

Replacing the subsidies was crop insurance, which “makes sense,” he said, although the insurance rates are still subsidized. “We have to keep wrestling with whether to subsidize,” said Merkley.

He also lauded the inclusion of payments in lieu of taxes to county governments, albeit for just one year. “It’s very tough to get more than one year at a time,” said Merkley.

For Tillamook County, those payments in lieu of taxes will amount to $43,556 on 131,255 acres of Bureau of Land Management land, or 33.18 cents an acre, less than the statewide average of

49.88 cents.

Organic and specialty crops benefit from the farm bill, Merkley said. Oregon is a big producer of both, he noted.

“Block grants” for specialty crops will rise from $55 million a year to $72.5 million through 2017, and $85 million a year after that, he said. Specialty crop research increases from $46 million to $80 million.

A 5 percent surcharge on crop insurance for organic crops was eliminated, Merkley reported.

And there will be disaster relief – some of it retroactive – that will compensate farmers and ranchers for lost forage, fences and livestock.

As for the farm bill’s cuts to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), formerly known as food stamps, they’re a “significant

deal,” Merkley said. The Senate’s original farm bill, passed last year, cut SNAP benefits by $4 billion over 10 years, while the House version cut $40 billion.

The agreement finally reached by the conference committee was $8 billion in cuts over a decade.

“I voted against the cuts,” Merkley said. “We are cutting the program at a time of record inequality in this nation.” He said the SNAP cuts amount to $60 monthly per family.

According to a report completed last year by an intern with Resource Assistant for Rural Environments, one in six Tillamook County families is living in poverty. Thirty percent of that population is eligible for SNAP benefits, although only about half of them are getting the benefits.

“We took Barbara’s letter everywhere in town,” Bodine said. “We went as far north as Garibaldi.” Tillamook County Commissioner Bill Baertlein did a piece on the radio and the Headlight Herald ran a story.

Other volunteers were dismantling partitions to create a larger kitchen area in what Bodine calls the ballroom – a big, open room where dances used to be held (and rummage sales have been staged in recent years).

An electrician was preparing to install new wiring where old benches had lined the walls. “We have Sheetrock, too,” Bodine said, “but we can’t put it up until the wiring’s done.”

She said Rosenberg Building Supply of Tillamook was donating the building materials.

The facility’s “drop-in center” room now has new, glass-topped card tables and is getting a second pool table donated by a doctor in Pacific City, Bodine said. “People wait in line to play pool here.”

By Joe Wrabek For the Headlight Herald

Two south Tillamook County residents are asking the Oregon Court of Appeals to rule on the validity of a state agency’s adoption in January of amendments to Oregon’s territorial sea plan.

Charles Ciecko of Neskowin and David Yamamoto of Pacific City are represented by David Allen, a Newport attorney and city councilor who is a member of the state’s Ocean Policy Advisory Council.

The amendments to the territorial sea plan dealt with siting ocean energy facilities. The territorial sea – defined as that part of the ocean from the coastline to 3 miles out – already had been “zoned” by the state, but the zoning didn’t deal with energy development.

The controversial aspect of the sea plan’s amendments was the determination of which areas would be zoned for the development of wave energy facilities.

Some residents of Tillamook County had objected to including an area offshore of Neskowin as a wave en-

ergy development site (that area originally had extended north to Pacific City).

The Ocean Policy Advisory Council, appointed by the governor, had ruled out the Neskowin site. And an advisory committee appointed by the Department of Land Conservation and Development had not included it in its list of top energy development sites.

Nevertheless, LCDC ignored those recommendations. It ended up adopting a report by its own staff that included the Neskowin site.

Ciecko and Yamamoto are charging that LCDC had no legal standing to do so.

State law says that if LCDC plans to reject a recommendation by the Ocean Policy Advisory Council, it must return the recommendation to the council for revision, Yamamoto said.

LCDC can’t simply adopt a different set of rules, he said.

The state has until about the end of February to respond to Ciecko’s and Yamamoto’s appeal, the Headlight Herald was told.

Yamamoto said it could be another several months before the appeal is settled.

senior center’s wood-frame building at Fourth and Stillwell was built by Tillamook’s Townsend Club, one of 7,000 such organizations that sprang up across the U.S. during the Depression of the 1930s. The club was promoting Dr. Francis Townsend’s “Townsend Plan,” which would give every senior citizen in America $200 a month.

The popularity of the plan, which was unveiled in 1934, reportedly prompted President Franklin D. Roosevelt to devise his own old-age insurance plan in 1935, which eventually became the federal Social Security program.

The land in downtown Tillamook was acquired and the building constructed using $5,000 in “Townsend Prize” money won by the local club for selling subscriptions

Townsend himself was on hand for the hall’s dedication Aug. 26, 1938.

Today, the volunteers are re-using all of the original wood trim around the doorways and windows, Bodine said, some of which is wider than the wood trim used nowadays. “We’re trying to keep the 1938 integrity,” she said.

That’s with some limitations, however – “I have filled a lot of nail holes from 1938,” she said.

When the refurbishing work is finished, in late March or early April, the senior center plans to host an ice cream social, with ice cream donated by the Tillamook County Creamery Association.

Close to two dozen residents, parents and educators have met twice to consider options and make recommendations to the Nestucca Valley School District regarding restoration of an “alternative” to the present curriculum for local high school students.

Those involved include school board members LuAnn Anderson, Diane Boisa and Bill Hagerty.

“What happens now,” said Nestucca High School princi-

pal Randy Wharton, “is when a student is at risk [of not graduating] at Nestucca, we bus them up to Tillamook to that district’s TOPS school.”

TOPS is an acronym for Tillamook Options Program School. It’s housed in the east end of the former Wilson Grade School on Third Street.

Students there participate in smaller, less-structured classes, attend fewer hours of school, have a variety of creative options for earning credits to graduate, and build relationships with peers in similar circumstances.

“It’s a last chance for our

kids to graduate with their class,” Wharton said. “But what we’re seeing, unfortunately, is that our kids don’t in fact graduate out of TOPS.” None of the Nestucca students who attended TOPS last year earned a high school diploma.

“We have an adequate curriculum; we know it works for accumulating graduation credits,” Wharton said during the group’s second meeting on Jan. 29. He was referring to the curriculum used by Nestucca Connections, the district’s former alternative

high school program.

“What we’d need is highly qualified instructors and a way to address the morerigorous graduation requirements that have come down the pike,” said Wharton.

By the end of that meeting, a proposed Nestucca Alternative Program was taking shape. It would focus on at-risk students (those without enough credits or sufficient attendance to be on track for graduation) and offer community-based opportunities for students to gain employment-related skills.

Pacific City to get help for 3 damaged roads Bistro The Tillamook County commissioners have authorized what they’re calling “road drainage maintenance” for three local-access roads in the Pacific City area.

The three – Elderberry Lane, and High and Topping roads – all are in the Pacific City Heights development.

Local-access roads are not part of the county’s road system (many weren’t built to county standards). Tillamook

County officials were maintaining them at one time, but stopped doing so after federal timber receipts – the mainstay of the county’s road budget – began heading for zero five years ago.

That said, Elderberry Lane is a documented evacuation route on maps being distributed by Tillamook County Emergency Management, a point raised by Pacific City resident Larry Rouse last year.

Rouse and his wife, Ielean, were on hand to encourage and then applaud the commis-

sioners’ approval of the work to be done.

The commissioners were told the damage to Elderberry Lane and the two other roads stems from a nearby county road, River View Drive. The county’s construction work will include a water ditch and culvert system “sufficient to reduce the effect of future storm events.”

The county will put up $48,000 of the $60,000 cost, said public works director Liane Welch. “We have asked the community to come up

with $12,000,” she said.

“The Heights Neighborhood Association is willing to raise the money,” Rouse responded, to avoid waiting any longer for the work to be done. “Two more rainstorms and [the road] will be impassable,” he told the commissioners.

Repairing roads that the county doesn’t actually own is a “tough issue,” said Commissioner Mark Labhart. “Do we have responsibility? Technically, no. But we have an obligation.”

Tillamook County Creamery Association offers $12,000 in scholarships to Oregon students Tillamook County Creamery Association (TCCA) will offer six $2,000 scholarships to students in Tillamook and Morrow Counties this year as part of its 12th annual Excellence in Leadership scholarship program.

TCCA’s Excellence in Leadership scholarship program recognizes outstanding students who demonstrate leadership through service to their school and community, and continues the 105-year-old dairy cooperative’s tradition of giving back to the community.

Over the past 11 years, TCCA has awarded $102,000 in scholarships to more than 50 local students.

TBCC Continued from Page A1 mission on Colleges and Universities] wants to see if you can sustain the systems you have, sustain interest, and that you’re financially responsible… They want to see sustainability.

“We knew we could do it financially,” she added. “We already had our own board. But what we didn’t have was all of our curriculum processes in place, because we were using [Portland Community College’s].”

Now that has changed. For the first time in its history, Tillamook Bay Community College is in charge of its own curriculum.

That new control may mean several changes for TBCC’s students – all of them good, said Green. For example, the students now are able to adjust their fall-term schedule from 12

The TCCA Excellence in Leadership scholarships are awarded based on leadership, community and school involvement, and scholastic achievement. Three of the scholarships will be awarded to graduating high school seniors in Tillamook County and one scholarship will be awarded to a graduating high school senior in Morrow County.

A fifth scholarship will be awarded to a continuing college student and a sixth scholarship will be awarded to a TCCA employee or child of a current TCCA employee who is a graduating high school senior or continuing college

student. Additionally, a child of a current TCCA memberowner will receive preference for one of the scholarships.

High school applicants graduating in the summer of 2014, and who are applying for one of TCCA’s scholarships, must be a resident of Tillamook or Morrow counties or the dependent of an active TCCA member-owner or employee. Applicants who are continuing college students must be freshman, sophomores or juniors and the dependent of a Tillamook County resident or an active TCCA memberowner or employee.

All students must have been accepted to attend, or are

currently attending a two- or four-year accredited school for a degree program on a fulltime basis and have a standard GPA of 3.0 or above. Previous TCCA scholarship recipients may not apply.

To apply for a TCCA Excellence in Leadership scholarship, interested students must return a completed scholarship application and all required accompanying elements to the TCCA scholarship committee

by April 1, 2014. Scholarship applications and instructions are available at TCCA’s corporate office (4185 Highway 101 North in Tillamook, Ore.) or by sending an email to scholarship@tillamook.com.

weeks to 11, to align with the university schedules.

“It sounds so simple, but it was the first time we had that choice in 33 years,” Green said.

The reasoning behind the new 11-week schedules is to make it easier for TBCC’s students to transition to four-year schools.

On a grander scale, TBCC is considering offering an agriculture and natural resources program, something it couldn’t do under Portland Community College’s accreditation.

“They don’t need [an ag program at a college] in Portland,” said Green. But, “We live in Tillamook County and natural resources is a lot of our economy.”

So for the past two and a half years, TBCC’s staff has been diligently working and waiting for accreditation so they could be positioned to get a natural resource program off and running. “The board will see it in March,” Green said.

“This will be a program we’ve never had before, because it didn’t fit the criteria and demographic of Portland. Now we’re getting to design programs unique to our areas.”

Of course, TBCC’s past association with the Portland school had its advantages, Green noted. “We learned a lot.

It was a wonderful way to grow up.”

And now, fully “grown,” TBCC is even better situated to serve its local community.

When the accreditation team visited TBCC, Green said, its subsequent report commended “the college for developing deep and meaningful connections with community partners through fostering a local culture that values the importance of education.”

Said Green, “Those are not normal things. Usually, they talk about the quality of instruction. But when they talked about this college, they talked

about the integration of the community with the college.

“It’s the most unique letter any community college will ever receive,” she said.

“I’ve never watched a community so own and value its college before.”

As a way to thank the community and to celebrate its accreditation milestone, TBCC is hosting receptions Mar. 12 at the college’s south campus at Nestucca High School in Cloverdale (from 8:30 to 9:30 a.m.), at TBCC’s main campus in Tillamook (noon-1 p.m.) and at its north campus at Neah-Kah-Nie High School in Rockaway Beach (4:30-5:30 p.m.).

The public is cordially invited, said Green.

Ninth in a row Tillamook Wrestling earns another Cowapa League title

Mook girls swimming take District title; boys third

by Chelsea Yarnell sports@orcoastnews.com After finishing second by a few points to Seaside at the District Championship last year, the Tillamook girls’ swim team came back with a vengeance this season and claimed their rightful title, beating Seaside by 11 points.

Junior Andie Putman and Emily Reibach led the Mooks, each winning individual events and qualifying for a trip to the state meet this coming weekend.

Putman finished first in the 500-free with a time of 5:59.89 and Reibach clinched the title in the 50-free in 26.94.

The girls’ 400 free relay of Putman, Reibach, Sabrina Polman, and Amanda Bush also outswam the rest of the field to a first place finish and a state qualification.

The boys’ team was unable to repeat their championship title from last year, but still finished third.

Dylan Tohl was the only individual to qualify for the state meet. His second place finish in the 50-free (24.14) and 100-free (535.26) earned him a trip.

Joining him will be the boys’ 400-free relay (Nicholas Roesener, Ryland Pampush, Jed Werner, Dylan Tohl) and the 200-free relay (Nicholas Roesener, Talon

Gerkon, Ryland Pampush, Dylan Tohl), which each finished third at the district meet.

First place finishes in each individual and relay event at the District Meet automatically qualified for the state meet and any remaining lanes were filled by the next fastest times from the District Meet according to the Oregon School Activities Association.

Qualifiers for state will compete at Mt. Hood Community College in Gresham Feb. 21-22. Preliminarily competition for the 4A/3A/2A/1A division starts at 6:30 p.m. on Friday and 6:45 p.m. on Saturday.

The Tillamook Wrestling team poses with their trophy after winning the District and Cowapa League title on Friday at Astoria. The Mooks won by two points.

by Chelsea Yarnell sports@orcoastnews.com For the ninth year in a row, the Tillamook wrestling squad claimed the Cowapa League title, as well as advanced 17 Mooks to the State Meet from the District Championships on Saturday in Astoria.

“Any time you win a District Title you are relying on a team effort not just individuals,” Head Coach Lonnie Eggert said. “I am very proud of this group and what they have achieved. Winning your ninth league title takes a lot of heart and effort on their part.”

The Cheesemakers accumulated 352 points, beating Scappoose in second at 350 whom they lost 21-49 just the night before.

“Scappoose is a good team and we knew it was going to be tough win on the road, Eggert said. “They have only beaten us twice in duals in the last ten years. We gathered the wrestlers and talked about the lost and what that meant. We talked about [that] tomorrow was another opportunity for them to meet their goal.”

Leading and earning top points for the team at the district tournament was: Logan Weeks (134), Drew Owens (154), Gabriel Whitlatch (184), and Rafael Gomez (197) who all finished first in their divisions.

Weeks qualified his way to the quarterfinals where he won by fall (1:30) over Cameron Walker of Yamhill-Carlton. He then moved onto the semifinals where he defeated Zach Gabois by major decision 13-0. In the first place match, Weeks beat Alex Foumal of Scappoose and won 5-0.

“Logan Weeks is doing a great job leading on and off the mat,” Eggert complimented. “He is a big part of our team’s success.”

“Drew Owens also has been a great leader and was one of our top district scorers,” Eggert continued.

Owens began his quest for the title by pinning Trask Epling at 0:55 in the quarterfinals. Owens moved onto the semifinals where he again pinned his opponent at 1:06.

In the final match, Owens continued his pinning streak and won by fall over Brendan Coberly of Astoria at 0:25.

Whitlatch also found his way to a win on Saturday. He pinned his opponent in the quarterfinals and advanced to the semifinals where he also pinned Kyle Bossert of Banks in 1:57. Whitlatch then received a medical forfeit from teammate Steven Flores to claim first place.

At 197 pounds, Gomez won his division with two pins and one decision. In the quarterfinals, Gomez brought

Pedro Martinez of Seaside to the matt in 1:50. In the semifinals, Gomez squeaked by with a one-point decision over Jedidiah Mauck of Banks, 6-5. And for his final match, Gomez took down Even McCormack of Seaside (Fall: 1:48).

“Whitlatch has been injured most of the season, but is starting to come on just at the right time,” Eggert said. “[And] Gomez was also top point scorer for us. He works hard and continues to improve his wrestling skills each day.”

The four Cheesemakers were joined by other outstanding performances from their teammates that helped earn the Mooks their title. “[On] Friday we entered 25 wrestlers into the District tournament and came away with 21 District placers,” Eggert continued. “Is winning districts important? I believe it is, but we have to put it behind us and move forward this week and get ready for the regional tournament.”

Cheesemaker wrestlers Tya Tharp and Eva Deutsch also both qualified for the 2014 OSAA girls’ state tournament to be held in two weeks. Tharp earned first place and Deutsch placed second.

NKN cheer takes seventh at State Championships

by Chelsea Yarnell sports@orcoastnews.com After cheering and brightening the sidelines of every Pirate sporting event, it was finally time for the NKN cheer team to compete at a prestigious competition of their own.

Following their top four performances at the Cavalier Cheer Invitational and the Crusader Challenge, the Pirates entered the OSAA’s Cheerleading State Meet on Saturday and finished seventh of 13 teams.

“I’m really proud of the NKN cheer team,” Head Coach Sharon Finlay said.

“They worked hard all season and really came together as a team, even last week we were working on making improvements and problem solving in the routine.”

While the girls finished in seventh, there was only a three-point difference between them and a fourth place podium finish. “...it was a very tight competition,” Finlay said.

Of the squad’s members, nearly half are graduating seniors. “The end of the season is bittersweet because I have seven girls graduating this year,” Finlay said. “It was a very emotional end to the season.”

Gibson, Cham crowd pleasers at Smoker

by Chelsea Yarnell sports@orcoastnews.com

Arguably one of the most popular events of Tillamook High School’s Charity Drive, the Smoker Boxing Tournament offers the community an exclusive look inside the world of boxing.

Audience members watch as local students, community members, and past THS alumni dance around the ring all in pursuit of a knockout against their oparnell ponent. n.

Swift jabs to the chin, ali-

quick blows to the head, and the possibility of being splattered with blood while sitting ringside drew a crowd on Saturday night.

A particularly popular fight for the crowd came when local Mia Gibson entered the ring. Appearing calm and collected through all three rounds, she defeated opponent Bailey Branscum.

The last featured women’s fight of the night included Justis O-Hagan who aggressively had the edge over Glynnis Rutherford.

The main event of the evening was the matchup between Jeremy Cham and Miguel Velez, both graduates of Tillamook High School.

Velez captured the win in the highlighted fight last year, but Cham’s confident persona earned him this year’s title.

“Really proud of the kids,” trainer and owner of Blend of Zen Eric Beggs said. “When kids put forth such a big effort and they’re parents, friends, and community come out to support

them, that’s what makes sense in this life. It was a beautiful thing to see them be really, really supportive of the kids.”

Coaching from a ringside position, Beggs was able to watch as some of his trainees exhibited what persistent training looks like.

“A lot of them were training five days a week for the past three months,” Beggs said. “So, hopefully everyone enjoyed it. But, most importantly these events are for charity, they’re fun and the community really sup-

ports them.”

Joining Beggs as a coach on the opposing side was Tillamook Boxing Club founder Walt DeCambra.

“I used to fight in this, in ’79 and ’80 and then [I] turned to training and coaching,” DeCambra reflected.

Through the years, he has coached and trained hundreds of students and athletes to box and prepare for the Smoker; this was DeCambra’s 34th year in attendance.

Now a resident of Ha-

waii, DeCambra still can’t get enough of the event. “I came back to help so that I could keep it going. One day I’ll probably have to retire,” he said with a smile.

While each matched demonstrated acts of aggression and violence, Beggs offered some unique insight: “It’s a strange phenomenon about fighting: when you fight somebody you’re best friends for the rest of your life. There’s something unique about the friendship that forms from boxing each other.”

Recent Pool-AThon participants give a thumbs-up after another successful event.

24th annual Pool-A-Thon fundraiser celebrates local swim program

by Dave Fisher

It’s Pool-A-Thon time again, the 24th such event, which serves as the annual fundraiser for the North County Recreation District’s swim program.

The proceeds from the NCRD Pool-A-Thon support the Nehalem Elementary School Swim & Water Safety Awareness Program, which has existed in some form since 1930, when the pool, housed in the elementary school, was first built.

At that time, the school district was planning an addition to the school in Nehalem. The drowning of two local teenage boys prompted the community to ask the school district to add a natatorium. Even though it was during the Great Depression, there was overwhelming community support to teach every child how to swim to avoid future tragedies.

Eighty-four years later in an area surrounded by water and

dominated by water-related recreation, NCRD continues its mission of providing swim instruction and water safety to all Nehalem Elementary Students.

“The goal has been to offer a safe environment where students can learn to swim, and be educated in water safety, while instilling the value of swimming as a lifetime skill and healthy recreational activity,” said NCRD swim instructor Sue Dindia-Gray.

“The skills they learn in the pool could save their life or the life of another.”

The NCRD School Swim Program reaches out to every Nehalem Elementary student, kindergarten through fifth grade. This also includes the NKN District #56 adaptive Swim Program.

Historically, the Nehalem Bay community has accomplished something extraordinary in financially sponsoring students who swim laps for dollars during the annual

Pool-A-Thon. By pledging money or making a donation to a student swimmer, citizens can help guarantee all the children will continue to benefit from this vital and historic program.

“We each can play an important role in maintaining our community’s essential values, and your generous investment in the Swim Program will make a direct and immediate impact,” said Dindia-Gray.

Participating kids will be canvassing throughout the community through March 1, looking for sponsors who will pledge dollars for their swimming efforts. The PoolA-Thon is slated February 22, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Donations can be mailed to: Pool-A-Thon 2014, P.O. Box 207, Nehalem, OR, 97131. All donations are tax deductible.

For more information, contact Sue Dindia-Gray at (503) 368-6238 or the NCRD pool at (503) 368-7121.

Mooks guaranteed best play-off spot from league Tillamook 50 Seaside 45

by Chelsea Yarnell sports@orcoastnews.com Tough defense from the Cheesemakers kept the Seaside Seagulls scoreless until 1:30 to go in the first quarter at Seaside on Feb. 11.

Field goals from Zane Wright and Joey Hancock put the Mooks up 5-0 early in the period; Hancock also made a free throw to give the Cheesemakers a 6-2 lead going into the second quarter.

Seaside earned the first bucket of the second quarter, but Hancock quickly put two more points at the board for the Mooks. A few three-pointers and field goals from each team tied the game at 13 with three minutes to go in the first half.

The pace picked up when Hancock hit a three followed by Gabe Bryant and Wright making two apiece to boost the score up to 20-16.

Seaside earned a three, but a long range two pointer by Trent Meyer and two free throws by Hancock gave the Mooks a five point lead at the half 24-19.

Things tightened up in the third quarter as Seaside cut the lead to one at 26-25, forcing a timeout by Tillamook.

Seaside picked off the inbound pass and made a two-pointer to bring the Seagulls to their first lead of the evening, 27-26.

Tillamook stayed calm and buckets by Meyer and Wright put them up by three at 30-27.

The Mooks were able to remain in control and finished the third quarter on top at 34-29.

The fourth quarter started off quickly with a field goal from Wright, then Isaac Stellflug’s rebound and outlet pass put Hancock on the line for two free throws, giving them a nine-point lead at 38-29.

The Gulls didn’t give up and cut the lead to 38-35 until Hancock made two of three at the free throw line for a 40-35 lead.

Seaside made back-toback three pointers and came within one point once again at 44-43 with 3:24 remaining in the game.

The Seagulls decided to foul Joey with 23 seconds left in the game with Tillamook only up by one at 46-45.

Hancock calmly made two from the line and with 11 seconds left and Matt Strang sealed it with two more free throws for the final score of 50-45.

Tillamook’s David Waud attempts to block a shot from the Scappoose offense on Thursday night.

Now in their second round of league play, the Mooks have already beaten all the Cowapa teams once and are on a great start to repeat that feat.

The Cheesemakers never took a substantial in the first quarter against Scappoose, for each team matched basket after basket.

But, Scappoose struggled to score in the second and Tillamook took a nine-point lead at the half, 29-20.

The Cheesemakers kept their points coming in the third quarter and out scored the Indians 21-12 in the third quarter.

Pulling even further ahead, the Mooks clinched the game 63-44.

Joey Hancock led the Cheesemakers with 18 points.

Tillamook 57 Yamhill-Carlton 56 With a 57-56 win over Yamhill-Carlton on Friday night, making it their 12th win out of their last 14 games and 8-0 in the Cowapa League, the Tillamook Cheesemakers are guaranteed the top spot in the league heading into the playoffs.

David Waud started off the game on Friday night, hitting back to back buckets for a 4-0 lead 49 seconds into the game.

After a timeout and missed shot by Y.C., the Mooks got two on a fast break, then came right back down for another three by Joey Hancock for a 9-2 lead.

Isaac Stellflug and Waud both hit three-pointers after two scored by Y.C. Making it 15-6.

Both teams picked up the tempo and with two more buckets from behind the arc, Tillamook led at the end of the first period by 10 at 24-14.

Into the second quarter, Tillamook shot 5-8 behind the three-point line. Y.C. Fought back hard, but the Mooks responded with buckets by Matt Strang, David Waud and Y.C. went ahead by three at 33-30 with 1:08 left. Trent Meyer hit a three off a rebound by Isaac Stellflug to end the half tied at 33 apiece.

The third quarter started off with a steal from Matt Stran and a bucket for two at 35-33.

Y.C. answered quickly with two, but Hancock hits another three and Waud two for a 5 point lead.

After exchanging buckets Y.C. went to the free throw line for the first time in the game, making two for a 47-46 lead. The Mooks made two more baskets and led at the end of the third quarter at 50-49.

With 40 seconds left, Hancock was fouled and made two for boasting the Mooks to a one point lead 57-56. Twenty-two seconds left in the game, the Tigers’ 6’7” center missed a shot and Tillamook rebounded.

Unfortunately, the Cheesemakers following foul shot was missed and Y.C. earned another possession.

Down by one and 2.9 seconds left on the clock, the Mooks let Y.C. inbound, but with tough defense and a tipped shot by Waud, Y.C. missed at the horn and Tillamook won by one at 57-56.

Rohweder-Romig forces several turnovers for the Pirates against Gaston NKN 30 Gaston 16

by Chelsea Yarnell sports@orcoastnews.com When there’s a loose ball on the court, you can bet that Annie Rohweder-Romig will be the first one diving for it.

In Feb. 12’s make-up game against Gaston, RohwederRomig picked off balls left and right, with at least five steals in the third quarter.

Her efforts, along with her teammates, led the Pirate girls to a 30-16 win over Gaston.

Rohweder-Romig had the only two field goals for the Pirates in the first quarter, and they were matched by the Greyhounds with two of their own.

Tied at four going into the second period, each team struggled to put shots down.

It took nearly six minutes until NKN’s Dana Moore

broke the drought and scored a basket, bringing it to 6-4.

With less than a minute to go in the half, Pirates’ Annie Kelly answered with her own shot off an assist from Kalli Swanson.

Keeping the Greyhounds scoreless in the second quarter, the Pirates led 8-4 at the half.

Into the second half, the girls picked up speed and points starting adding up on the board. Within the first minute the Pirates accumulated six points.

“Luckily we came out the second-half and started knocking some down,” Head Coach Corey Douma said.

“Then we had a cushion to roll with it after that.”

Romig’s turnovers aided the Pirate’s cause and gave NKN more opportunities for possession.

The Pirates kept the Greyhounds to a single basket in the third quarter and re-

mained in the led, 19-6.

Gaston opened the final period with a bucket, but was quickly followed by one from the Pirates.

Rohweder-Romig continued to be persistent on defense and at one point frustrated Gaston’s point guard so much with her exceptional coverage that she nearly left the court in tears.

The Pirate girls kept the Greyhounds at bay and saw the game to a 30-16 win.

“It was a good win, we needed this one. It helps our hope to get third; I don’t think it’s set in stone yet,” Douma said. “They did a great job defensively the whole game, but they started getting a lot of steals in the third quarter.”

This is the second time this season that the Pirates have beaten the Greyhounds. At their last meeting on Jan. 17, NKN won 39-33.

“Last time it was almost

the same exact thing, except we were down by 11 at halftime and came back to win by six,” Douma said. “For some reason we like to come back in the second.”

NKN 30 Knappa 17 The Pirates win over the Greyhounds comes as their second in two nights.

On Feb. 11, NKN traveled to Knappa and beat the Loggers 30-17.

“Last night was probably our most solid game of the year,” Douma said about the team’s game against Knappa.

“We didn’t have many turnovers and we did well on the rebounds. We just controlled the game from beginning to end.”

NKN 39 Riverdale 28 The girls traveled to River-

dale on Friday night and won 39-28.

NKN 36 Vernonia 45 The team turned around the next morning and hosted Vernonia at home. They were defeated 36-45.

NKN remains third in the Northwest League with a 11-5 record.

Spaghetti fundraiser benefits North County Food Bank For the second time in less than a month, the Big Wave Café hosted a fundraising dinner for a local nonprofit organization.

On the heels of its Library Lovers Dinner, a benefit for the North Tillamook County Library Friends, the Big Wave hosted a spaghetti dinner with proceeds benefitting the North County Food Bank on Feb. 17.

“We do our best to make sure no one goes hungry,” said Imie Camelli, president of the food bank, which is located in the Nehalem Bay Health District building in Wheeler.

“Even though the recession is officially over, there are a lot of people at risk of going hungry in the community,” said Brian Williams, who, with his wife Carol, owns the Big Wave Café. “The food bank fills a crucial gap, and we are honored to help its volunteers continue their mission.”

Big Wave owner Brian Williams teams up with Imie Camelli, president of the North County Food Bank, in hosting another spaghetti fundraiser for the food bank on Feb. 17.

In recent years, the Big Wave has hosted dinners on behalf of a number of local nonprofit organizations, including the Pine Grove Community Club, Rinehart Clinic and Manzanita Busi-

ness Alliance.

The North County Food Bank serves much of north Tillamook County, including the Nehalem Bay area.

“The closest food pantry to them is in Garibaldi, at God’s

Lighthouse, so they serve quite a large part of north county,” said Melissa CarlsonSwanson, Tillamook County Oregon Food Bank branch services manager.

The food bank plans to use the proceeds to purchase more food to give to the local hungry. The operation is entirely volunteer-run.

Part of the Oregon Food Bank system, the North County Food Bank receives food from both the Oregon Food Bank and local donors.

However, “We have to buy an awful lot of our food these days,” said Camelli.

As for Williams’ generosity, Camelli said, “He’s doing it again. He’s wonderful. He’s a big asset to the community.”

The North County Food Bank is open 1-3 p.m., Tuesdays. Donations can be dropped off from noon to 2:30 p.m. on Tuesdays. For more information, call (503) 358-7724.

hanks to Fred Bassett for word that it’s not too soon to mark your calendars for the excitedly anticipated return of the one and only David Roth.

He’ll appear in concert at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, April 8 at The Grateful Bread Bakery in Pacific City. Fred Bassett and Sonya Kazen, of Cloverdale will open the show.

For $20 per person, David, (one of the founding teachers of the SummerSongs songwriting camps in New York and California) will offer a two-hour songwriting workshop the previous evening, April 7 in South Tillamook County. This class will benefit everyone from beginners, who need to know where to start, to seasoned “pros” who just want to get some new ideas.

Fred tells me that he’s personally benefited by David’s mentoring over the past eight years, and he emphasizes what a great opportunity this is for

ow! What a week of winter weather here in Cape Meares. We had below freezing weather and the Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia was 50-60 degrees. We had four and a half to five inches of snow here, but of course it does’t last long; we’re too close to the salty air of the ocean.

It was cold enough for long icicles to form on the cliffs at the Cape’s north side. Very pretty. I didn’t get out of the house for four days and had to

GARDENING MATTERS start seeing acts at 5 p.m. until 8 p.m. and will be selecting 12-15 acts for the show. The acts must be suitable for all ages and last no more than five minutes, so if you have a talent to share they are looking for musicians, magicians, comedians, singers, actors, ventriloquists or whatever kind of talent you want to show off, said center president Dave Dillon.

This is the fifth Community Talent Showcase the Hoffman Center will be hosting on Saturday, March 1 at 7 p.m. The event will feature a variety of acts put on by local citizens.

Admission is $10; all proceeds go to support the center’s general operating fund. Performer registration forms are available on the centers website hoffmanblog.org.

Last minute I know, but if you are so inclined to enjoy a grown-up story time, Liz Cole will perform readings on Thursday, Feb. 20 at 7 p.m.

This time Liz Cole has chosen the theme of “Darkness into Light; Readings for midwinter.” There will be stories and poems about the season

of transition from deep winter moving slowly into early spring. There is a suggested donation of $5 and all proceeds will go to support the Hoffman Center’s programs.

Doors open at 6:30 p.m.; come early, seating is limited.

Refreshments will be served.

Audience members can look forward to an evening of readings followed by conversation.

February is American Heart Month, come and see the Tillamook County artists who are exhibiting original works based upon the theme of the heart, so if you get time check out the Art For The Heart at the NCRD located at Ninth Street, Nehalem on Sunday, Feb. 23 starting at 2 p.m. until 4 p.m. There is no charge; for more information you can contact Mary Faith Bell at 503-815-2402.

The United States Postal Service will hold a meeting to provide information and answer questions regarding reduced hours and other possible changes in service at the Hebo Post Office (possibly as extensive as closing the Post Office altogether.) The event is planned for 6 p.m. on Tuesday, March 11 in the Community Room at Nestucca Rural Fire Department Station #87 in Hebo.

Tillamook Transfer Station is offering free collection for the safe and proper disposal of household hazardous waste from 9-1 on Saturday, March 1 at 1315 Eckloff Rd. in Tillamook. The facility does not accept ammunition, explosives, or medical waste.

With winter weather dominating the forecast we can use Tillamook Emergency Preparedness guru, Gordon McGraw’s seasonal advice: When a winter storm approaches, stay inside, and remember that infants and the elderly are the most susceptible. If you’re stranded in your car: • Don’t panic; stay with your vehicle.

• Stay dry, and cover all exposed body parts.

• Keep a brightly colored cloth tied to the antenna, in order for others to find your car.

• Run the motor every hour for about 10 minutes to maintain warmth, but keep window open a bit to prevent buildup of carbon monoxide and make sure the exhaust pipe is not blocked by snow.

• Exercise periodically by vigorously moving arms, legs, toes and fingers.

• If with other people, take turns sleeping.

I called over the weekend for a road report on Highway 6. There was hard packed snow at the summit and freezing rain in Forest Grove and Hillsboro. I’ll stay in Cape Meares for now…

The snow is all gone here and warm rain has been coming down. When I called for a road report at the first of the week, intermittent rain was coming down at Wilson River summit; the road was clear but vehicles had to bring traction devices and I don’t have any tire chains nor do I know how to put them on in case it did start snowing again. Snow is dangerous on that road and the plows were kept busy everywhere.

Tuesday night we had very strong wind around midnight that lasted for a couple hours.

The power went out, but it was back on by morning. I had to change all the electric clocks again. My refrigerator

was off but the thermostat and surge protector had to be reset.

I feel like I am finally back on track after having to fix all these problems. And all within the coldest week of the year!

It is nice to have a warm house again and not have to wear thermals and layer clothes. I sure was glad for my electric blanket to keep me warm during those nights.

The Nea-Rock Garden Club meets at KoKo’s downstairs restaurant on Feb. 19 at 11:30 a.m. To carpool, leave the PUD parking lot at 11:15.

We will walk the Kilchis Point path after lunch, if weather permits.

Happy anniversary to Harold and MerryAnn Bennet on Valentines Day. And to Graham and Michele Kinsman on Feb. 16. My 82nd birthday is also that day. Also a happy birthday to Margaret Tweelinckx who’s birthday is Feb. 19 and Barbara Woodhosue on Feb. 23.

My pilgrimage to Portland

T

his is the time of year I look forward to my pilgrimage to the Yard, Garden and Patio Show in Portland’s Convention Center. For 2014, the dates are Friday, Feb. 28 to Sunday, March 2, from 10 a.m. to 7:30 p.m.

Friday and Saturday, and 10 to 5 on Sunday. This is when the Oregon Nurserymen’s Association gathers together the best garden designers in the area, the best new plants for the season, and the best garden speakers from around the area and the country, offering them all in one place.

After seeing all the newly designed gardens and poking around the nursery booths to check out new plants, I like to stop and take a break by going to the seminars. This year’s batch of speakers features my “home-grown” favorites Dan Heims of Terra Nova, Sean Hogan of Cistus Nursery (always an enjoyable and informative program), author and garden designer Lucy Hardiman, radio and TV personality Mike Darcy, and clematis guru Linda Beutler. Maurice Horn of Joy Creek Nursery and Rose Marie Nichols McGee of Nichols Garden Nursery will also be on hand with their entertaining but enlightening words of wisdom. But Billy Goodnick from California, Mart Wingate and Sue Goetz from Seattle and Nicholas Staddon from Monrovia Nurseries will also be presenting. Their topics range from design tips to urban gardening.

This year, the YGP has scheduled some great demonstrations, too, like designing water features, unique ways to plant succulents, building raised beds, and container gardening with vegetables. Two panel discussions are also scheduled with these pros – one on the importance of pollinators in the garden

GARDENING MATTERS CARLA ALBRIGHT

and one on self-supporting natural systems.

Seven demonstration gardens will show us how to personalize our yards and patios. Addressing the challenges of small lots, unique natural features, and bringing the inside outside will be just a few of the gardening trials that will be explored in beautiful and creative ways.

Here are a few of my personal tips since I have been going for the last 13 years.

Be sure to bring a camera to photograph your favorite ideas. I also bring a tote bag with me, to stash the handouts that are passed out at the show and in the seminars. A little notebook to capture the best of the ideas also comes in handy, as does a bottle of water.

Wearing comfortable shoes is also a must. And I try not to be bothered with a coat as they do not usually have a coat check at the Convention Center for our use. However, once I start shopping, I could check my coat in the holding area with the plants and garden art that I buy.

I also would recommend taking a few minutes to go online at www.ygpshow. com and look at the seminar and demonstration schedules or use the free show guide you will be given at the entrance to plot out your “attack.” (Download a coupon for reduced admission while you are online.) The first thing I do is choose the speakers I want to see on the day I will be there. Then I plan what vendors I don’t

want to miss and use the maps in the show guide to find where they are. Generally, vendors like to stay in the same spot each year so their regular clients can find them, which is nice.

Before I shop - and before the show floor gets too crowded - I like to look at the demonstration gardens, getting as many photos as I can. I make my next stop the Remarkable Green Market which is where smaller vendors can set up their booths with specialty plants. (Besides, part of these proceeds goes to the OSU Master Gardener chapters in Portland.)

Then I find my favored vendors to see what new things they are tempting me with this year. Once I have shopped at my favorites, I will check my purchases at the holding area and take in another seminar or two for a rest before heading back to the show floor to stroll the aisles. I try to be methodical about this, going up one side of the aisle and back down the other. If there is something that catches my eye, I have learned to make the decision there and then “to buy or not to buy” as I will often forget where I saw what I liked. Or it may be sold by the time I get back.

My last tip is to pack a couple of energy bars in my tote. The lines at the lunch vendors can be long, seats are scarce, and the food can be relatively expensive. I find having a good breakfast before I go and munching on an energy bar or two during the seminars keeps me going until I can have a nice dinner with my family.

But there is so much more: children’s play areas, Hardy Plant Society displays, cooking classes, the wine and beer beverage garden, and live music.

It’s a fun event spent with people who love plants as much as you do. What more can you ask?

s I begin to write this column, we have a winter storm coming toward us. It makes me long for summer.

I was recently reminded that the Rockaway Lions Club provides free glasses and hearing aids for those folks who qualify. This is so cool. If you want an application, give a call to June Chard at 503368-7543.

I also got a message from our Friends of the Library folks. The Rockaway Beach Branch has a seed library available. You are welcome to take up to 10 packets at a time for vegetables and flowers. Then, at the end of the season, you are encouraged to bring seeds back from your best plants so they can be shared again next year (totally optional). And while you’re there, don’t forget to sign up for your membership. Let’s get their membership to a new high. Call 503-355-2665 for more info.

And the library is planning their computer classes coming up March 7. If you need any help, call them and schedule some time with the tutor. She helped me quite a bit, I’m sure she can help you too.

Coming up on March 1 is the Annual Spaghetti Dinner and Auction. Plan on attending. It’s a wonderful fundraiser for the Park and Rec Program. And if you would like to get involved, this is a

went to the library to check on Jeremiah and wished him a Happy Valentine’s Day. The salmon were all in one place together except for Jeremiah and a friend whom were happy to be swimming alone. Perhaps his friend was his young lady and he was courting her. Who knows what they do in their tank?

Pub Talk began last week and the next one will be Wednesday February 26th, 6pm at the Pelican on 1st Street in Tillamook. Pub Talk is a time for people to get together of any religion or non-religion. The discussions are for the purpose of learning and exploring together. It does not promote a particular point of view and everyone is given the chance and courtesy to voice their opinions and answers to such questions as: If you could compete in any Olympic event, which would it be? Or, we don’t usually find water or dirt terribly impressive. Why do we find ourselves enthralled by the Grand Canyon or the ocean? Can good people do bad things?

If you have freewill, does God know what you would choose? Any discussion can evolve, change directions, and even change topics according to your group.

Boosters meet the 28th of February, starting at 11:30 with a potluck. At our January meeting guest Shaena Peterson talked to us about Our Town doing another festival sometime this summer with the name perhaps being “A Day in the Pearl”. Different aspects of putting something like that together were

NOTES FROM THE COAST great event to volunteer for.

Phyllis Baker ran it for years, and with her passing, we could use more help. Dale and I will be there with bells on.

They would also love donations for their auction. New or gently used items would be nice. Contact Laurie DeKlyen by leaving a message at City Hall (503-355-2291).

The Seaview Lake and Park Restoration and Improvement continues. They are now working every Tues cleaning the park. Drop by to help out. Just bring your weed-eater, gloves, etc. Call Cliff at 503-368-6321 if you’re interested.

To get through the crazy winter doldrums you have a few chances to play Bingo.

There’s bingo at the Lions Club on Sat night. And Sun afternoon, jog up to the Community Center just north of town, and join the Park and Rec Bingo from 1-3. This will bring a little sunshine into winter.

I still encourage you to stop by the Frugal Crow and purchase your crow for their Meal for Seniors fundraiser.

It would also be a great opportunity to find out how the contest works. And they are fun folks to chat with.

The Master Gardeners (TCMGA) are having their Pruning Day on March 8.

If you know of someone that is not physically able to prune their garden, contact the OSU Extension Office at 244 Fourth St Tillamook, 503-842-3433 or at http:// extension.oregonstate.edu/ tillamook/mg/tcmga. Applications are due Feb. 21. So you don’t have much more time to turn them in.

“You cannot hold a torch to light another’s path without brightening your own.” That’s Rockaway Beach “Sugar Coated!”

discussed and will again be talked about at the next meeting. Wendy Schenk was also a guest talking about Captain training for Emergency Preparedness. I was unable to attend the training session but am hoping to at a later date. If you are interested in being a neighborhood captain you can contact Wendy at 503-3770249.

I have been supporting our locals by buying my vegetables at “Fresh” and am truly happy with the quality, price, and taste of everything I have purchased there. There are now open till 6pm every day except Saturdays. I have not had the opportunity to experience their Wednesday night dinners but everything I hear from people who have is how wonderful and delicious everything is.

Happy February Birthday Greetings and wishes go out to: David Hurd, Sue Walker, Tim Roach, Vivian Starbuck, Hugh Bagle, Lawrence Briley, Sandy Palmer, and Bethany Roach. Also a dear friend Tom Bulger, and my darling granddaughter Amanda Bequette.

May all your days be filled with love and many blessings.

Don’t forget AA meetings are Tuesday nights downstairs in the church and start at 8pm. This meeting is open to everyone.

Burn permits for 2014 are available at the City office.

There is no charge for a burn permit.

On March 7, 8 and 9, the Nehalem Bay Emergency Response Team will conduct CERT training. This will be followed by a final exercise/ disaster simulation on Sunday, March 16. The CERT training sessions will be held at the Nehalem Bay Fire and Rescue Fire Station 13, located at the corner of U.S. 101 and Bayside Garden Road. You must attend all four sessions in order to receive your CERT certifications. Also, there is a $40 fee to attend the CERT classes.

Have a great week and see you around town!

Why being a hero may look different

L

isten, Spike, if you were born in the Northwest, I know who your hero was – Paul Bunyan, the giant, he-man logger, with his blue ox, suspenders and cork boots.

My folk hero in Texas was Pecos Bill, who could rope and ride a tornado. Better known, though, was his human incarnation, Marion Morrison, the rugged, heman cowboy with his highheeled boots to keep his feet in his stirrups during a stampede. You probably know him by his acting name, John Wayne.

Yessir, pardner, I grew up riding horses and if you didn’t I figured there was something wrong with you like you were either handicapped or from New York.

My heritage was injected into my psyche like an antidefeatist antibiotic, the attitude of most Americans – if I put my mind to it, I can do anything.

Sorry, women, our culture has been remiss about female heroes. It’s not that you don’t have them, Abigail Adams, Harriett Tubman, Nancy Pelosi and Hillary Clinton. Don’t roll your eyes at me. I can’t help it if our culture has

SCHUBERT MOORE 503-965-3681 schubert906@gmail.com

taught you to be so subservient, that you believe your place is barefoot and pregnant and in the kitchen, to the point you dislike the two strongest women in politics today. I also can’t help it they’re Democrats.

So, go find a strong female Republican to support.

You’ll have to find your own way.

Like I did.

My wife Joani’s core is never-give-an-inch. As you might imagine, that has plusses and minuses, especially when we disagree.

She has raised a fine son.

She has lived in Europe and taught young children for 30 years. She has crosscounty and water skied, backpacked for years, and done a toboggan run on Mt. Hood. She is fearless. She’s my hero.

And then came that day she was diagnosed with a degenerative nerve disease.

Since then, she has been, from her wheelchair, president of the Pacific City Library Board, the Thrift Shop Board, a volunteer reader for SMART, is a regular fundraiser for and has made too many contributions to Tillamook County to name.

There was nothing wrong with her. The problem was me.

While I was forming into John Wayne, ready to rope and ride a tornado to Oregon, he never said, smile when you call me a caregiver, Pilgrim.

When anyone mentioned the word caregiver, I got all clammy. You did, too, especially if you are of the male persuasion. Extra especially if you’re under forty.

That’s pretty funny because we all started out with a caregiver. Who do you think changed your diapers?

I had no models to show me how to be a caregiver.

John Wayne, Hulk Hogan, Bruce Willis, nor Chuck Norris were caregivers.

Arnold never said, Schwarzenegger is my name, care-

giving is my game. Super heroes weren’t caregivers.

Not even Wonder Woman.

At one point I even considered running away.

The Americans With Disabilities Act has been law for two and a half decades.

Condensed, it states if you’re not handicapped you have to park far away.

Actually, it says if you have a disability, which is the inability to perform a major life function like walking or shopping at Costco, you can’t be denied services provided to the public. I urge you not to use businesses where a wheelchair can’t get in. They’ve had 24 years to comply.

As I look around, I can see there is nothing special about what I’m doing. I see caregivers everywhere, teachers and nurses, of course, but many spouses and all parents.

There is no way what I say next isn’t self-serving.

This is for men. It takes a real man to be a caregiver.

Ultimately, this isn’t Joani’s story, or even mine.

It’s yours, because if you’re lucky, that is, if you live long enough, you’ll either need one or be one.

Gentle Giant in Formal Attire This charming, debonair young fellow is Oliver, a 1 year-old super-sized tuxedo just waiting to sweep you off your feet! Oliver is a lover, who enjoys being held and cuddled. But this gentle giant is also quite young, thus very playful and active, and he just loves to run around the house and climb his super-sized cat tree! He’s very chatty with his human, and an altogether charming boy who deserves a wonderful home, maybe yours?

These friendly guys are father and son Huskies, 6 years and 2 years old. They are good with kids and other dogs, plus they are lovable cuddle bugs, too. Both love to run and play and will need space to run out their energy often. I’d like them to go together but it’s not absolutely necessary. Besides, two are better than one anyway!
