Headlight Herald WEDNESDAY, MARCH 12, 2014

A new way to follow Tillamook at State The Headlight Herald has announced it will send sports reporter Chelsea Yarnell to the state high school basketball tournament in Corvallis to provide ongoing, first-hand coverage of Tillamook’s team.

If you can’t make it to the Willamette Valley for the games, said editor Sayde Moser, that’s OK. Yarnell will be on hand shooting video, taking photos, talking to coaches and players, and bringing Headlight Herald subscribers a 360-degree look at the game from the comfort of their laptop computers.

If you have a paid print or online subscription to the newspaper, you can log on to tillamookheadlightherald.com and set up a free account to access all of the online news.

Beginning Thursday, Mar. 13, reporter Yarnell will be updating the Headlight Herald website with a personal video blog describing that day’s tournament events.

Then, you can watch for live updates and clips of the games on the newspaper’s website and its Facebook page.

Between games, Yarnell will be chatting with coaches and players.

Have a question you want her to ask? Follow Yarnell on Facebook and let her know, suggested Headlight Herald publisher Adam Schwend.

Yarnell will be in Corvallis through Saturday, should the Cheesemakers make it to the finals.

“It will be a close game [on Thursday],” she said, “because Seaside has been on a roll lately and recently beat the third-ranked team in the state. But I think Tillamook is a very experienced and athletic team that’s played together a long time, so they’ll be able to adapt in any situation.”

Schwend said subscribers can follow Yarnell, the team and its supporters at tillamookheadlightherald.com.

Delays this spring on U.S. 101

Just south of Neahkanie, crews were busy in mid-February clearing trees along U.S. Highway 101 in preparation for an upcoming culvert replacement project later this spring in the vicinity of Manzanita’s water treatment plant.

Get ready for some delays on U.S. Highway 101 this spring, including a three-day closure at Neahkahnie Mountain.

The Oregon Department of Transportation will be putting your tax dollars to work.

One project consists of repairing a 300-foot section of the Neahkahnie Mountain rock wall built in the early 1940s along the southbound shoulder of U.S. 101 plus the construction of new sidewalks.

Construction got underway Feb. 17 with the installation of a concrete barrier near the highway’s centerline, leaving just the northbound lane for through traffic. The single-lane traffic will be controlled using a portable

Never too young to learn The Tillamook Bay Child Care Center recently changed its name to Tillamook Early Learning Center, to reflect its new focus on early childhood devlopment. But for Finn, above, learning and playing still look much the same. Read the full story on PAGE A6.

New gym in Tillamook brings different aspects to working out The Warehouse is not your grandpa’s fitness center.

Local community members Rex Metcalfe, Laurie Rieger and Rachel Hagerty envisioned a gym that’s community-centered and supported – and a bit out of the ordinary (for Tillamook, anyway).

“The style of workout we bring combines the most popular and effective strength and conditioning programs available,” said Rieger. “It’s different than what we have in Tillamook, which is why we’re bringing it here.”

You won’t find weight machines, elliptical machines, or TV’s at The Warehouse. Instead, kettlebells, barbells, plyometric boxes, squat racks, medicine balls, bumper plates, push sleds, rowers, jump ropes, tires, music in the background greet the gym’s members.

The circuits are designed by certified trainers with a focus on crosstraining

signal.

Oregon State Police will be enforcing the speed limit through the work zone area.

The project is scheduled to be completed by November. The singlelane traffic, controlled by the portable signal, will remain in place likely until May 2.

Primary contractor for the project is Thompson Brothers Excavating of Vancouver, Wash.

Also, trees have been cleared along U.S. 101 at Manzanita in preparation for a culvert replacement project later this spring beneath the highway at Neahkahnie Creek. Single-lane traffic through the construction area was controlled by flaggers during the height of activity the week of Feb. 17.

Tillamook County Fair will be ‘one to remember’ The 2014 Tillamook County Fair’s board of directors has announced the performers for this year’s event, including the Oak Ridge Boys, as well as Uncle Kracker and Phil Vassar.

The fair will begin Aug. 6 with country rocker Uncle Kracker on stage that evening, sponsored by the Tillamook County Creamery Association and Les Schwab Tires of Tillamook.

Uncle Kracker’s recording career began a dozen years ago with a rap album. His pop song “Drift Away” set a ONLINE “Billboard” Tell us your record for favorite part of 28 weeks the Tillamook on the chart.

County Fair He followed at tillamook with a rock headlight herald.com album, on which “Follow Me” was a top-five hit.

More recently, Uncle Kracker teamed with Kenny Chesney for the No. 1 country hit “When the Sun Goes Down.”

TLC Federal Credit Union and Sheldon Oil Co. are sponsoring the iconic Oak Ridge Boys the evening of Aug. 7. Their fourpart harmonies and upbeat songs have spawned dozens of country hits and earned them Grammy, Dove, CMA and ACM awards, resulting in a broad base of fans.

The group’s hits include “Elvira,” “Bobbie Sue,” “Dream On” and “American Made,” all real fan-pleasers.

The fair’s final concert, sponsored by the Tillamook County Merchant’s Day Businesses, will be Aug. 8. Singer and songwriter Phil Vassar has hit the top five on seven occasions. His winners include “Carlene,” “Just Another Day in Paradise” and “American Child.”

“Our workout consists of constantly varied, high intensity, functional movements.” Rieger said. “Basically this means you will move between a variety of exercises, which keeps it fun and

keeps your body guessing so you never hit a plateau. “ “You will do functional movements like squatting, pushing, pulling, jumping, running… Movements we use every day. You will work at the highest intensity that you can do which See GYM, Page A5

Teen Challenge expands its store, outreach

By Sayde Moser smoser@countrymedia.net Earlier this year, the Teen Challenge Thrift Shop in Tillamook moved to a new location at 4192 U.S. Hwy. 101, across from the Tillamook cheese factory.

Since 1983, Teen Challenge has been offering faithbased recovery services in the Northwest, with ministry centers located in Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Montana. Today, 12 locations and 250 beds are available for men, women and children in the organization’s “residential program” – a one-year program helping young men and women shed bad habits and learn life skills.

“It’s not an easy process,” acknowledged Rodger Snodgrass, vice president of business development for Teen Challenge.

Added Snodgrass, “A lot of guys and gals in our program come from the coast.” Hence the thrift store, which for the last nine years has served as an outreach center for troubled youths on the north Oregon coast.

Teen Challenge’s original space next to US Bank in downtown Tillamook proved too small for the outreach services available, so it relocated. “We have great exposure now, being across the street from the cheese factory and right on 101,” Snodgrass said.

Fifty percent of Teen Challenge’s residential program expenses are paid through its thrift stores, Snodgrass said.

“It costs us $2,500 a month per person living in one of our facilities,” he said.

Teen Challenge doesn’t receive state funding and although teens can be sponsored by their families, often they’ve burned all those bridges, he said. Such was the case with Daniel Richardson, who has been in the program for 11 months and just signed up for a one-year internship following his graduation.

Richardson, 31, reportedly began using drugs at age 17.

He joined the U.S. Marine Corps after high school,

“We have great exposure now, being across the street from the cheese factory and right on 101.”

Rodger Snodgrass, VP of business development although he continued to use drugs.

“I was a functioning addict,” said Richardson. “I got really good at hiding it.”

But that lifestyle eventually catches up to you, he said, adding that just over a year ago he hit rock bottom.

“I got on my knees and started praying,” said Richardson.

His sister, who said she didn’t want to lose her little brother, bought him a bus ticket from Crescent City, Calif., to Portland, where he was introduced to the Teen Challenge residential program.

“It’s a big adjustment,” he said, “but it’s a real safe haven of you, God, your work and sobriety. It teaches you new life patterns so you have the right tools to use when you start to get stressed out, instead of turning to substance abuse.

“It’s allowed me to see everything in a new light.”

During his upcoming internship, Richardson will be trained to work as a potential staff member for Teen Chal-

It will mean time away from his 13-year-old son, but he said he’s made peace with that. “I’ll be making a huge sacrifice to do this, but it’s what I need to do to better my life for my son,” said Richardson.

Historic photos and artifacts of “the town that fell into the ocean” line the walls of the Tillamook County Pioneer Museum until July 25.

Remembering Bayocean Park

By Sayde Moser smoser@countrymedia.net A veil of mystery, myth, a few facts and confusion shrouds the tale of Bayocean Park, an extinct town that once flourished on the Bayocean spit east of Cape Meares.

It’s a tale of entrepreneurship, wealth and disaster. It’s also the latest exhibit at the Tillamook County Pioneer Museum, 2106 Second St. in Tillamook.

“It’s the only story that can really compete with the Neahkahnie treasure,” said museum executive director Gary Albright.

His wife, Carla Albright, has spent six months collecting photographs and stories to document a town that might well have some day become the Atlantic City of the West.

“It’s a lot of reading,” she said of creating the exhibit, “but so much of the story is H52097 so interesting, I wanted to tell as much as I could that was provable.”

One of the exhibit’s goals, said Gary Albright, is to dispel some of the rumors surrounding the bygone town. “Everyone has some story to tell [about Bayocean] that has no basis in fact,” he said.

For example, the tale that the town’s developer, Tom Potter, killed himself after the ocean claimed his community.

In truth, Albright said, Potter moved to California after making a fortune on Bayocean and later died of natural causes.

Potter and his son were the ones who came up with the idea of creating an Atlantic City of the West, with Bayocean spit considered the perfect spot, Albright said.

That was partially because of its serene views of both Tillamook Bay and the Pacific Ocean, and also because of the price of land. Not to mention, the railroad was due at any time, which would help fill the town with people.

However, Albright said, he believes the town began to fail the moment the developers initiated their project. Because

He and others had gone out with wheelbarrows in an

that’s the only source, that’s less likely to be true.”

The Bayocean exhibit will be featured at the museum until July 25.

READER’S OPEN FORUM Thank you to South Fork for your help Many times we forget that there are a lot of people that do public service and they never get thanks. Several weeks ago there were a number of crews sent out from South Fork Prison Camp with men trained to fight fire.

There were a number of fires near the Oregon coast and these men arrived on the spot to do service for each of us, as Oregonians.

Obviously the fires were put out and the grounds

maintained in an efficient and careful manner. Having been trained to do this work, the men at South Fork are many times sent out to fight fires throughout the wide state of Oregon.

In this case, the fires were close and the men to put them out were even closer.

Good job South Fork!

We appreciate your stewardship of our natural resources.

God bless.

Reduction in TBCC Connections hatchery fish presents an undeniable risk to our region

by Debbie Lincoln TBCC Board Member

Jack Smith, Chair CCA-Oregon Hatchery Committee

The process of generating a Coastal Multispecies Conservation and Management Plan (CMP) has generated a great deal of concern from not only Tillamook County residents, but from rural residents up and down the Oregon coast -- and rightfully so.

Hatcheries and the fishery opportunities they provide are extremely important to the social and economic fabric of our rural communities, but we have been reducing or eliminating hatchery programs for literally decades.

These hatchery reductions represent an undeniable risk to the well-being of our region.

Questions continue to emerge about the conservation benefits of these decisions in light of the many examples where hatchery fish have been removed

and wild populations have not increased.

The reductions in responsible hatchery production have shocked not only our rural coastal communities, but communities and tribal councils across the Northwest. To that extent it has served a useful purpose as groups with generally divergent interests are coming together and uniting to promote policies that better recognize the benefits of responsible hatchery production.

We also now know that we must take action to protect our hatcheries and fisheries from the escalating lawsuits from special interests.

With regards to the CMP, concerns exist about the lack of science supporting key aspects of the final amended draft plan.

However, we also recognize that a plan is needed to meet the legal requireSee HATCHERY, Page A5

The first ever TBCCbased degree program is a reality!

The Associate of Applied Science Degree in Agriculture and Natural Resources was approved by the Tillamook Bay Community College Board on March 3.

The State Board of Education will review in April and approve in May. This new program will be available to local students beginning fall 2014.

It took TBCC staff and the Board only a couple of weeks to take advantage of full accreditation and separation from Portland Community College to approve its first degree program.

Before TBCC earned separate accreditation, it could offer only those programs provided by PCC. Dairy farming and cheese making were not high priorities for Portland’s urban population. But they—along with natural resources programs like fisheries and forest management—are in demand on the North Coast.

An advisory committee of businesses began meeting two years ago to investigate, design and recom-

mend a program that could be ready for approval with Accreditation. Demand was reinforced by members of the advisory committee including representatives of agriculture, the Creamery, the BLM, forestry, fisheries and several Oregon State University programs.

Troy Downing, of OSU Extension, says “This program should be real valuable to students interested in agriculture and natural resources.” John Casteel, representing the US Forest Service’s Hebo and Siuslaw forests, said that the Forest Service, which is always looking for talented employees, would benefit from the program. Professional positions in forestry, fisheries, wildlife, hydrology, geology and engineering are often hard to fill.

The program requires a number of new courses, most of which will be taught by local qualified people from our own community. They range from Forest Biology to Cheese Making, Wildlife Conservation to Organic Waste Management. There will also be classes in Wine, Beer and Spirits Manufacture and in General Viticulture, a See TBCC, Page A5

By Dave Fisher For the Headlight Herald

When owner and chef Lee Vance said she planned to open her new Manzanita restaurant by mid-February, few believed her.

Last October, when The Citizen first ran a story about her plans, the building was under construction. Although the exterior was taking shape, it was hard to imagine what a restaurant might look like inside.

Yet true to her word, Vance’s brand-new restaurant, Blackbird, opened on Valentine’s Day. The restaurant was packed that evening and since then, she said, it has been pretty well booked. Vance, who admitted to having a few butterflies because of opening on such a special day, said, “We were inspected [just] the day before.”

Thanks to an open kitchen, there’s no place for the restaurant’s 11 employees to hide.

Added Rieger, “Machines isolate one muscle. You can sit at a machine doing a bicep curl, but you’d never do that movement in real life.”

Fair Continued from Page A1 Jackson.

This year’s entertainment will wrap up the evening of Aug. 9 with the bang-up Demolition Derby sponsored by Carson Oil Co., the Headlight Herald and Clatsop Distributing Co. The fair also will feature four days of its well-known Pig-N-Ford racing, with the “world championships” held Saturday evening.

birds-eye view of all that’s happening.

“What you see is what you get,” said Vance, who wanted the operation to be as transparent as possible. “We’re on-stage at all times and very visible.”

The farm-to-table eatery traces its beginnings to the 2012 Manzanita Farmers Market, after which Vance took over at the Nehalem River Inn, a gig that lasted 14 months. When Dinner at the Nehalem River Inn closed, the plan was to keep the name roughly the same in anticipation of a move to Manzanita, but as the opening of the new restaurant approached, Dinner in Manzanita gave way to Blackbird.

“I’m not very good at naming things,” said Vance, who initially liked the idea of keeping the restaurant’s name similar to attract her following. “But it just felt this was turning into such a different animal, it lent itself to something different.” Hence the name, a salute to the many blackbirds

that call the north Oregon coast home.

As she did at Dinner in Manzanita, Vance buys as much as she can locally. Among her suppliers are R-evolution Farms, Kingfisher Farms, Lance’s Farm Vittles, Meadow Harvest and Taylor Farm. Even the wine list includes offerings from Oregon wineries.

The eatery, with seating for nearly four dozen patrons, remains a work in progress. An outdoor patio, which will be inaugurated this summer, will offer additional seating for casual dining. Vance envisions offering a happy hour sometime soon.

“We’ll be adding more small-plate appetizers and make some seasonal changes to the menu,” she said, “but it won’t be a whole new menu.” Among the current offerings are roasted lamb, roasted free-range chicken, seared duck breast, mussels frites and Vance’s signature lamb burger.

Appetizers include Willapa Bay oysters, sweet and spicy chicken wings, Caesar salad and bacon-wrapped apricot, to name a few.

The restaurant’s interior features handcrafted glue-laminated tables and partition made from a timber that worked its way down the Nehalem River, as well as bar tops milled from a log (complete with the remnants of a bullet that became lodged in the tree).

A bench fashioned from another log – with carved blackbirds at one end – graces the front entry.

“We made the most out of this space. It’s amazing what the developers (Hans Tonjes and Jimmy Onstott) were able to squeeze in,” said Vance.

Located at 503 Laneda Ave., Blackbird is open for dinner from 5 to 9 p.m., Thursday through Sunday. Reservations are not required, although recommended.

to the individual. So that no matter what your current fitness level or age is you will get a great workout.”

As certified trainers, Metcalfe and Rieger bring their experience in coaching, training, and strength and fitness conditioning. The 4,000-square-foot gym space at the Port of Tillamook Bay allows for workouts and programs to change as needed and to accommodate various fitness levels, focusing on sportsspecific training, weightlifting, weight-loss education, nutrition, competition preparedness, or whatever your goals may be.

But perhaps most important, they said, is the gym’s community atmosphere. Metcalfe, Rieger and Hagerty believe group workouts can have a variety of benefits and create team-like bonds among gym members.

So you can expect to have fun and get a great workout with support from the trainers and peers.

“One of our house rules is that if you join our gym, you have to support other people,” Hagerty said.

Tools for evaluating fitness progress will be available to the gym’s members and will allow the trainers to step in and assist with feedback if asked.

“It’s not just ‘pay your membership and come into our gym,’” said Metcalfe.

“We’re going to offer a personal relationship to whatever your goal is.”

Used as a supplement to existing athletic programs, younger athletes will be able to fine-tune their skills and keep up their strength in the off-season by using the gym’s personalized plans.

An open house is scheduled for April 5 in conjunction with the “Splash-N-Dash” fun run at the Port of Tillamook Bay from 9 a.m.-1 p.m. (with the race beginning at 10 a.m.) and then again on April 6 from 9 a.m.-1 p.m.

A membership at The Warehouse begins at $25 a month for those under age 18, $40 for adults, and $30 for seniors.

Family and couple rates are available. Signups begin Mar. 14.

The Warehouse is located at 6002 Blimp Boulevard, Suite A, just south of downtown Tillamook. Hours are 5 to 9 a.m. and 3 to 8 p.m. Monday through Friday, 4 to 8 p.m. on Sunday, and for scheduled events and clinics on Saturday.

For more information, email the.warehouse@aol.com or call 503-842-4545.

highway project, Tillamook County, in collaboration with the City of Manzanita, is widening Laneda Avenue and installing sidewalks this spring from Division Street east to where Manzanita’s main street will intersect with U.S 101.

That project is expected to be finished prior to the summer tourist season.

Repairs to rock screening on the face of Neahkahnie Mountain also will commence this spring. ODOT will be installing a new wire-mesh rock screen along U.S. 101 to replace damaged screening along a 225-foot portion of the mountain’s rock face. The

screen is designed to prevent rocks from falling onto the highway.

ODOT expects the Neahkahnie screening project to be completed by early June.

It’s estimated it will take two to three weeks to perform the hillside prep work and install the rock screen anchors. Installation of the rock screen is estimated to take up to three days.

During the prep work, motorists can expect daytime onelane closures with flaggers, Monday through Thursday,

with no more than 20-minute delays.

However, there will be a full closure of U.S. 101 for three days when the rock screen is installed using a large crane or helicopter. That closure will be on a Tuesday through Thursday, each day from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., with detours in place.

ODOT will provide advance notification and detour signs for the closures to allow travelers to plan alternative routes.

Other entertainers this year will include Brad’s World Reptiles for the Courtyard Stage, hypnotist Tammy Barton, juggler and comedian Alex Zerbe, the Maniac, and Jeff Martin “the curly haired magician.”

Additionally, the fair will have Brady Goss performing two nights in the Aufdermauer Arena area on his keyboard. And “Fair Acres,” a free kid’s area, is adding “Mother Goose” to perform for the kids, along with more educational exhibits.

Failing to fulfill our legal obligation to have a plan in place might open the door to more activist lawsuits similar to those being witnessed in other areas of the state. Having a plan, while not insuring against litigation, would most definitely decrease the likelihood that such lawsuits ultimately prevail.

With the CMP approved, we must then begin a larger policy discussion between ODFW, the recreational license buyers that largely fund its budget, the rural communities that are affected by these management decisions and elected officials to restore common sense to our fisheries policies.

It would be much more productive if we could make management decisions based on what is best for fish, fisheries and the well-being of communities rather than having to continually choose the lesser of two evils.

Before hatchery production levels or stocking regimes are changed, there needs to be a clear demonstration that current hatchery operations and or protocols are causing a specific quantifiable conservation problem.

Prior to the reduction or elimination of hatchery programs we should first update hatchery infrastructure, improve broodstock standards, rearing protocols, stocking regimes, increase selective harvest opportunities, and take other regulatory actions less likely to reduce opportunity.

Past, present and future conservation measures should be monitored for effectiveness at the population level and adjusted or discontinued as indicated by periodic review.

OBITUARIES

Bud A. Gienger

Photo by Chelsea Yarnell

Students at Tillamook Early Learning Center enjoy fundamental learning.

Lenhart ‘Bud’ Gienger, 78, of Bay City, Ore. passed away on Tuesday, March 4, 2014 with his family by his side from complications arising from cardiac arrest. He was born on Nov. 11, 1935 in Tillamook, Ore. to Lenhart M. and Alice (Johnson) Gienger. Bud had five siblings: Dick, Tom, John (deceased), Sally Gienger, and Susan Sauter.

Bud met his loving wife, Helen (Hume), at Oregon State University where he graduated in 1957, with a degree in dairy management. He wrestled on the varsity teams that won the Pacific Coast Conference championship for three consecutive years, and he remained a strong fan and supporter of the Beavers. Bud and Helen married on Aug. 24, 1958.

Bud is survived by his wife of 55 years; his children Laurie Gienger, Peggy Lehman and spouse Mike, Kathy Gienger (deceased), David Gienger and spouse Freynie; 11 grandchildren, Ryan and spouse Royale, Garrett, and Kaylyn Jockers, Sarah Christopherson and spouse Andy, Marc and spouse Melissa, Brian and Travis Lehman, Nathaniel Gienger, Rachel Franke and spouse Marty, Jesse and Andrew Gienger; and five great grandchildren, Kamryn, Carter, and London Jockers and Lucy and Lydia Franke with two more on the way.

Bud served as a 1st lieutenant in the U.S. army. He was a lifelong dairy farmer and entrepreneur. He was a member of Sigma Chi Fraternity, the Elk’s, Kiwanis, Farm Bureau and Prudent Plungers Investment Club. He generously supported Oregon State University and the Tillamook YMCA .

He was committed to helping the community, spending time with children at educational and mentoring programs (SMART and Lunch Buddies). He enjoyed following OSU and Tillamook athletics.

He had been on the board of directors and Chairman of the Tillamook County Creamery Association. He was currently serving on the board of directors at the Tillamook Pioneer Museum, Marie Mills Center, OHSU Cancer Research Center and the YMCA board of trustees.

Bud was awarded the Tillamook County Senior citizen of the year, Martin Chavis lifetime

Now it’s the Tillamook Early Learning Center

by Chelsea Yarnell cyarnell@countrymedia.net

After evaluating its goals, the Tillamook Bay Child Care Center has opted to make a name change, said executive director Eva Manderson.

“We really wanted to stress that it’s early learning and not just child care or babysitting,” said Manderson. Hence the new name: Tillamook Early Learning Center.

“We have worked really hard to align our pre-kindergarten class with the school district,” she said, “so those

kids are getting everything they need to be ready for kindergarten as they work through that continuum.

“This has been a strong goal and vision for us and our name didn’t reflect that.”

Programs offered at the center are designed for children ages 6 weeks to 12 years, with a concept that incorporates foreign languages, and an education in social interaction and preparing children for a school environment.

Also, school-age children are offered after-school care that features sports activities, homework assistance and

even field trips.

Recently, the Meyer Memorial Trust donated $15,000 to help support the center’s operating costs and scholarship fund, said Manderson.

“Every year, we look for around $50,000 in scholarship and operation support,” she said. “Some of [the operations support] goes toward programs that are extra and that our rates don’t cover, like additional staff on field trips.”

Manderson said the funding benefits eligible families and provides more local children with the opportunity for an “early learning” education.

Women’s Resource Center seeking volunteers Are you seeking ways to be more involved in your community? Tillamook County Women’s Resource Center is looking for individuals interested in making a difference in the lives of neighbors, friends, and family through helping survivors of relationship and sexual abuse in our community.

TCWRC is offering a free training starting March 29, 2014 for individuals interested in volunteering or community partners who wish to increase their understanding and improve their crisis intervention skills.

The 30 hour training will help prepare volunteers for various positions like working with the hotline, direct services, clerical duties, fundraising,

publicity, maintenance and odd jobs, Board of Directors, and many other opportunities.

There are volunteer positions for everyone, for every skill set and interest.

Why volunteer? Volunteering can create feelings of accomplishment and satisfaction. It provides new experiences in life that may broaden the mind, a resume, and personal relationships.

Volunteering creates connections with other empathetic, compassionate people who want to help and can be an opportunity to further connect with the community.

Tillamook County Women’s Resource Center has been a helping hand since 1982, with the mission to eliminate domestic and sexual

violence in our community.

TCWRC and our volunteers provide services for survivors, and family and friends, who have been affected by domestic and sexual violence.

Some of our services include emergency shelter, advocacy, support groups, community presentations, and referral information. TCWRC couldn’t do all this work without the help of volunteers like you.

If you would like more information on the upcoming Volunteer Training or would like to get started on your volunteer application and prescreen interview, call TCWRC’s Volunteer Coordinator, Emily Fanjoy at 503-842-8294 x211 or pick up an application at the center.

Tillamook Bay receives Schrader: ‘Tillamook should be proud’ funds for dredging U.S. House passes flood insurance reform bill to prevent unaffordable premium hikes It was officially announced Mar. 5 that nine Oregon coastal ports will receive funds from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for dredging – including Tillamook Bay. Most of Oregon’s coastal ports received no funds for dredging in the President’s Fiscal Year 2014 budget.

The U.S. Congress included two competitive funding programs for shallow and deep port dredging in its 2014 Omnibus Appropriations Act, which became law on Jan. 17, 2014. These programs were $40 million and $128 million respectively, and ports across the country were eligible.

The award means nine ports in Oregon that would have gone without any dredging this summer will get needed navigation maintenance.

“The federal dredging funds are critical to Oregon’s coastal economy,” said Governor John Kitzhaber. “This award is about jobs and a strong coastal economy, but it’s also about safety.”

Maintenance dredging of coastal ports has long been a responsibility of the federal government. However, for the past several years, funds to dredge Oregon’s coastal ports

have been severely underfunded or completely nonexistent.

Last year, in response to almost no federal funds for maintenance dredging, Gov. Kitzhaber worked with Oregon’s legislative Coastal Caucus to secure $5 million in state funds to pay the USACE to dredge some of Oregon’s most severely shoaled coastal ports.

“When it comes to funding for this important dredging work, Oregon shouldn’t have to do it alone,” said Kitzhaber. “I’m pleased that we successfully competed at the federal level to secure funds for coastal ports this year. This is a huge win for the economic well-being of coastal communities, commercial and recreational boating and fishing, and small business owners.”

Kitzhaber has been working with Oregon’s Congressional delegation to ensure federal maintenance dredging funds are available in 2014 and beyond – both through federal appropriations and from the Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund, which is the traditional source of federal funds for dredging and harbor maintenance. This fund is paid for by the Harbor Maintenance Tax.

CRIMINAL CONVICTIONS On Sept. 9, 2013, Leo Patrick Waldron, 36, pleaded no contest to criminal mischief in the second degree, a class A misdemeanor, committed on or about Oct. 6, 2012. Waldron was sentenced to jail for 365 days and ordered to pay $500 of restitution.

On Feb. 18, Rodney Adam Greenfield, 37, pleaded guilty to assault in the fourth degree, a class A misdemeanor, committed on or about April 28, 2013. Greenfield was sentenced to bench probation for 18 months and ordered to pay assessed costs of $400.

On Feb. 24, Ian Christopher Brown, 35, pleaded guilty to reckless driving, a class A misdemeanor, committed on or about Nov. 4, 2013. Brown’s driver’s license was suspended for 90 days. Brown was sentenced to bench probation for 18 months and ordered to pay assessed costs of $200.

On Feb. 24, Rene Lynn Rodgers, 51, pleaded guilty to reckless driving, a class A misdemeanor, committed on or about Oct. 1, 2013. Rodgers’s driver’s license was suspended for 90 days. Rodgers was sentenced to jail for five days and bench probation for 18 months, and ordered to pay assessed costs of $100.

On Feb. 24, Ramiro Magallanes Solis, 43, pleaded guilty to giving false information for a citation, a class A misdemeanor, committed on or about July 13, 2008. Solis was sentenced to jail for 30 days.

By Sayde Moser smoser@countrymedia.net It’s been five months since Congressman Kurt Schrader held a town hall meeting in Tillamook to hear local concerns about the skyrocketing rates of flood insurance.

At that time, he said the best course of action was to “mitigate and delay” implementing the federal BiggertWaters Reform Act, which originally took effect Oct. 1, 2013, but was delayed until Sept. 30, 2014.

That measure mandated that the Federal Emergency Management Agency, which runs the nation’s flood insurance program, raise rates to repay

its losses incurred by insurance claims from Hurricane Katrina in 2005 and Hurricane Sandy last year, as well as to make the flood insurance program selfsupporting.

“The intent [of BiggartsWaters] was good,” Schrader said, “but the rate increases were beyond what the average person could afford.”

Now, he said, he’s part of crafting a bipartisan bill that passed the house Mar. 4 preventing those unaffordable flood insurance premium hikes and requiring FEMA to conduct an affordability study.

“I’m really proud of the people of Tillamook,” Schrader told the Headlight Herald. “We were able to have very produc-

tive town hall meetings that weren’t just gnashing teeth.

People came with ideas and we were able to incorporate those ideas into the bill.”

One such idea that Schrader helped write into the bill was to allow homeowners to purchase a flood insurance policy with a higher deductible in exchange for lower monthly premiums.

“It’s a huge improvement,” Schrader said. “We needed to do something beyond just delaying the rate increases.

People needed actual, real relief.”

The measure also requires that FEMA’s affordability study be completed within 18 months of the bill becoming law. Unlike the previous bill,

which delayed the increases until September, this bill doesn’t expire once the affordability study is completed. The new rate increases and rate caps are set, Schrader said.

The bill also limits rate increases to no more than 15 percent a year.

Schrader told the Headlight Herald this bill is a “classic example” of what can happen when people speak up about their concerns. “It’s important to be a part of the solution,” he said.

Schrader said the bill should land on President Obama’s desk soon for his signature.

He noted that being a bipartisan bill helps its likelihood of success.

Mooks state bound with 61-56 win Tillamook 61 Brookings-Harbor 56

by Chelsea Yarnell sports@orcoastnews.com The most dangerous thing you can run into in a single elimination basketball tournament is a team that lives and dies by the three. Tillamook faced such a team in the first round of the state playoffs on Saturday night.

While Tillamook was clearly the more athletic team, Brookings-Harbor showed they could compete among the states best when their three-point shooting was hot.

After a nail-biting game, the Cheesemakers secured their spot in the state quarterfinals by winning 61-56 against the Bruins.

“We had a game plan to shut down their three-point specialist,” Head Coach Greg Werner said, “four of his [shots] were contested.”

“The other emphasis was keeping them off the freethrow line,” Werner continued. “We made more free throws than they attempted.”

Mooks’ Matt Strang opened the evening with the first basket only to be matched by one from the Bruins.

David Waud earned his first bucket of the evening from beneath the basket followed by a steal by Zane Wright.

And then the seemingly unending threes started coming from Brookings’ number three Dexter Vaughn. He popped off his first and boasted the Bruins’ score to eight, one behind the Mooks.

Joey Hancock put down a three of his own despite the heavy double-teaming the Bruins placed on him.

Frustration with the tight defense began to show as the Cheesemakers were forced to start offensive plays at halfcourt, which in turn, created some anxious shots that did not go down.

David Waud goes in for a layup during the Cheesemakers’ game against Brookings-Harbor on Saturday night for the first round of the state playoffs. Waud led the team with 24 points and went six for six from the free-throw line. put down two to close the first quarter 14-10.

Isaac Stellflug had a noteworthy moment in the game.

At the start of the first quarter, he found a hole in the Bruin defense and went up for a layin. With a good basket and one foul shot made, Stellflug increased the Cheesemakers to 19 points.

Two foul shots from Waud and a reverse lay-up from Wright boosted the Mooks to 23, but the Bruins kept within reach by staying hot on the threes.

Bruins’ Vaughn put down another three and led the Brookings to their first lead of the game 25-23.

Losing their margin, the Cheesemakers started to unravel. A pass over half court and several missed shots from behind the arc displayed the Mooks’ jitters.

The Bruins held onto the lead and closed the half 3532.

After halftime, the Cheesemakers tried to regain their losses as the Bruins shooting cooled down.

“I like the way our guys countered their momentum and energy,” Werner said about the team’s surge after

the break.

Waud, Wright, and Hancock each added points to the board and helped the Cheesemakers reclaim a lead at the end of the third, 45-43.

Into the fourth, the Mooks and Bruins traded basket for basket, tying the game on multiple occasions.

Meyers hit a three to tie the game at 50 as Bruins’ Vaughn earned two more threes.

Down by two, 51-53, Wright clung to Vaughn, preventing any more threes from the Bruins.

A steal and break away lay-in by Strang tied the game at 54, one of the keys to the Mooks’ victory.

Wright followed with a layup of his own and the Mooks’ saw a lead once again, 55-53.

After Hancock missed his first one-and-one shot at the line, he put down the next two and kept the Cheesemakers ahead despite another three from Vaughn for the Bruins.

Waud took his turn at the line and closed the game with a Cheesemaker victory 61-56.

“At the last timeout, we talked about playing together.

It wasn’t about the x’s and o’s anymore,” Werner said.

Waud led the Mooks with 24 points and went six for six from the line. The Bruins’ Vaughn led the Bruins with 24 of his own for a total of eight three-pointers.

The Mooks will travel to

Corvallis this Thursday to play at the Gill Coliseum against Seaside at 6:30 p.m. in the quarterfinals of the 4A state tournament.

“It’ll be the little things that will make the big difference,” Werner said of the upcoming game against the Seagulls.

The Cheesemakers have beaten Seaside twice already this season: 59-49 on Jan. 25 and 50-45 p.m. Feb. 11.

State competitions can often be an overwhelming experience, but Werner and his coaching staff have adequately prepared the team for their state appearance by traveling to play in college arenas for practice.

“It’s still the same rules and regulations,” Werner told the Headlight Herald. “Once that ball goes up you lose sight of that and are in the moment.”

Tillamook is ranked sixth in the state while the Seagulls are ranked 14th.

The win on Saturday night boasted the Mooks’ record to 18-6 overall.

Several local bowlers represented Tillamook High School at one of the state’s most prestigious bowling competitions this past weekend.

At the All-Star Bowling Tournament held at Tillamook Lanes Saturday and Sunday, the best high school bowlers from all around the state gathered together for competition.

Competitors qualified for the tournament based on their bowling percentages at each of the seven different district championships around the state and also at the state meet.

Coltin Lake, Logan Wilks, Courtney Allen, and Kymberlee Ward all wore Cheesemaker red and black as they bowled against the state’s best.

In the girls division, Courtney Allen finished

35th with a score of 665 on Saturday, 636 on Sunday, and ending with a total of 1308 for the two day scoring phase.

Kymberlee Ward also competed in the girls division and finished 40th with scores of 610, 525, and 1135 respectively.

On the boys side, Coltin Lake finished 23rd by bowling a total score of 901 on Saturday, 931 on Sunday for an overall total of 1832.

Cheesemaker teammate Logan Wilks finished 25th overall with a great first day by bowling 1002 on Saturday. On Sunday Wilks followed up with a score of 810 for a total of 1812 over the weekend.

Bowling teams and individual bowlers placing within the top three, along with highest game bowled, were each awarded scholarships ranging from $15-$100.

Nestucca returns all state competitors

by Chelsea Yarnell acsports@orcoastnews.com ee, me ard- It was a special day last ng year at Hayward Field when the Bobcat track team earned eight medals at the state meet.

But even more exciting, is that the team has the opportunity to outshine last year’s performance.

All of Nestucca’s podium placers and state competitors return for another season.

Austin McKillip and Trisha Hopkins are the only two returning seniors who appeared last year at the state meet in Eugene. McKillip finished sixth in the both the pole vault (11’0”) and triple jump (40’ 1.75”). Hopkins finished just outside the medals in ninth place with a throw of 29’4.25” in the shot put.

Joining the two is junior Drace Moeller who finished second in the shot put (47’0”), junior Guillermo Pimienta who placed tenth in the high jump (5’6”), and sophomore Brett Elder who earned fourth in the shot put (44’ 7.75”), third in the discus (137’0”), and sixth in the javelin (145’9”).

On the girls’ side, junior Kycie Richwine returns as one of the state’s top competitors in the hurdle events. Last year Richwine finished second in the 100-meter hurdles and ninth in the 300-metter hurdles.

Coming back after a ‘phenomenal season’

State experience will aide Bobcats

by Chelsea Yarnell sports@orcoastnews.com “Last year we had a phenomenal season,” Tillamook Head Baseball Coach Josh Brown reflected as he watched this year’s squad practice on a rare sunny, spring day.

In his third year as head coach, Brown has turned the program around and created a precedent for excellence.

The season prior to Brown’s era, the team only saw two wins. In his first year, the Cheesemakers took home five wins, and then last year finished the season 17-10 and made it all the way to the [state] playoffs. The Mooks’ season finished with a loss to Klamath Union, 2-14 in the quarterfinals.

“They really started to figure it out and believe it,” Brown said of the team’s attitude last season.

“So this year we get to build right off of that. We don’t have to convince the boys they’re good, where in years past we had to.”

The team graduated eight seniors last season, but return nearly enough players for a full team.

“It a small squad, but the juniors and seniors that we do have are great leaders and they’re great athletes,” Brown told the Headlight Herald.

“We lost a lot of key players from last year,” Brown continued, “[and] we have some gaps to fill, but we’ve got guys that can do it and are willing to step up for it so that’s huge.”

Astoria and Scappoose tend to have solid teams and will be in contention with the Cheesemakers for the Cowapa League Title.

“I think that the Cowapa League is a very competitive league in general.

I have no doubt that these guys are capable of winning Cowapa and going deep into the playoffs.”

The Cheesemakers first game is at home on March 18 against Taft High School.

Play begins at 4:30 p.m.

by Chelsea Yarnell sports@orcoastnews.com The Bobcat girls return to the diamond after a notable season last year when they reached the state playoffs.

After beating the Vernonia Loggers, the Bobcats earned their first game in the tournament. But, without a home field advantage and Heppner’s skill as a great hitting team the Bobcats lost 1-12.

Loosing five seniors from last year, the team will try to repeat their success with some new players.

“We have some first year girls out that are really positive,” Head Coach Jeff Schiewe said. “We’ll work on team development and play to our highest ability and see where that takes us.”

Returning this season is pitcher Kycie Richwine.

“It was new, but it was really good to experience it,” she said of the team’s trip to state last year. “We played one of the top teams...but it was good to work that in to be ready this year.

“I’m excited for this year,” Richwine continued.

“We have a lot of returning players and we have a lot of new players too. But, I think that we’ll be able to go into that situation again and know what to expect.”

Richwine is dual athlete and doubles as a top-state competitor in the hurdles in track this spring.

Nestucca will host their first home game on March 17 at 4:30 against Warrenton.

And lastly, for the distance events, junior Courtney Ahn is the top-returning Bobcat. In the 3,000-meter race last year, Ahn finished sixth at the state meet with a time of 12:10.

Along with 30 other teammates, the Bobcats are preparing for another successful season led by Head Coach John Elder.

Elder was recently honored with the 2012-13 Section 8 Coaches of the Year award for his success and coaching philosophy in track.

“Our philosophy at Nestucca has always been based on individual improvement, the quest for PRs (personal records),” he said. “We are in the ‘opportunity business’giving kids an opportunity to amaze themselves at what they are capable of achieving.”

“We’ve had great athletes here who have been State Champions and set District Records, and we’ve had kids who finished last in every race, but still steadily improved each time,” Elder continued. “The pride and enjoyment as a coach are the same for both those types of athletes and every one in between.”

Nestucca’s first meet is scheduled to be the Regis Coed Relays on March 20.

The Bobcats will host one home meet on Thursday, May 1.

Defensive work is key for Bobcat baseball

by Chelsea Yarnell sports@orcoastnews.com The Nestucca baseball team made it all the way to the first game of the district playoffs last year before being eliminated

by Gaston with a 2-12 loss.

The Bobcats ended last season 8-16 overall and 8-10 in the 2A Northwest League.

Only losing three seniors from last year’s squad, the team’s small turnout consists of four seniors, a handful of juniors and sophomores, and four freshmen.

In his first year as head coach after assisting for more than seven years, Jim Kiser is ready to get his team practicing on the field, prevented currently by the rainy Northwest weather.

“We have to be able to get out on the field and work on our defense,” Kiser said. “I think offensively we’ll be fine.

But, defensively is where I want to get better especially since last year that’s what kind of bit us.”

The Bobcats will take to the home diamond on March 17 against Warrenton at 4:30 p.m.

New exhibit at Pioneer Museum brings Bayocean Park back to life The Tillamook County Pioneer Museum has installed a new exhibit in the Main and Northwest Galleries that features a historical perspective on Bayocean spit.

“Bayocean Park: A Grand Notion” features photographs and artifacts from the museum’s collection and tells the story of Thomas Benton Potter and his son T. Irving Potter as they imagined, designed and developed a resort town on the Bayocean spit that was to rival Atlantic City at the beginning of the 20th century. A grand hotel, amusement park, dance hall, and natatorium were all planned for the site along with cottages and bungalows.

The exhibit explains what happened to this town and why. Included with museum admission, “Bayocean Park: A Grand Notion” will be on display until July 25, 2014.

fter a hectic week trying to get everything together for the Crab Race weekend (kind of like herding cats), I thought a hot shower, clean sheets and a great book would be a nice way to take care of myself. Speaking of cats, I discovered it’s virtually impossible to have a 15 pound cat help you change your sheets.

Val Bailey and I had a great time shopping for the groceries for the event.

She introduced me to a few great gluten free items from Costco. I am finding more and more people who suffer from problems with gluten, whether you are intolerant or actually have a food allergy.

I have so many food allergies and intolerances I used to be afraid to eat! Okay, I know I don’t look like I miss too many meals, and I do enjoy food, but I have tried to make it a challenge. Thank

Friday from 1:00pm to 5:00pm. Don’t forget the deadline for submitting completed applications is April 7, 2014.

Awards will be announced by the end of May. For further information, you can contact: Laura Owens, TCMGA scholarship chair at 503-355-2655 or Tillamook County extension office at 503-843-3433. This is a great opportunity don’t pass it up.

The Rockaway Lions and all their Irish friends are presenting a St Patrick’s Day Corned Beef Dinner on Sunday March 16, noon until 5: p.m.. This will be corned beef, with all the trimmings, dessert and drink along with 50/50 drawing and entertainment. Adults pre-paid $9, at the door $10, children $5.

This will be at The Rockaway Clubhouse located at 268 South Anchor, so wear your green and come have some fun.

Don’t forget the White Clover Grange located on Oregon Highway 53, two miles East of US Highway 101 about a mile past the Mohler Grocery store and the Nehalem Bay Winery is having their potluck every first Wednesday of the month, and this is open to everyone, children and

adults. They start at 6:30 p.m. and go until 7:30 p.m.

So bring your favorite dish to share and maybe meet some old friends and make a few new ones.

If you are in need of daycare especially with spring break coming up give Marcy Taylor a call at 503368-7676 to save a spot for your kid(s). She is available Monday through Friday 7 a.m. until 5 p.m. and located at 35950 8th St. in Nehalem.

Everyone please save your Box Tops for education and drop them off at the U.S. Bank in Manzanita or now at the Neah-Kah-Nie Middle school. You can still drop them off at the Nehalem Elementary school, but the Middle school is now collecting them also, so there might be a little competition if you have kids in the Middle school and Elementary school, so please save them and then send them with your children or drop them off at the U.S. Bank in Manzanita it will help both of the schools.

Thank you.

Happy birthday this week to Mark Johnson of Nehalem, Judy Henderson of Wheeler, Chassidy Motsinger of Bay City, Frank Grimes of Nehalem and Jannette LaLonde of Gearhart.

goodness I am not allergic to chocolate, but I find it difficult to be lactose intolerant in Tillamook County.

Instead of bread with gluten you could use corn tortillas, or even butter lettuce like a wrap. I have discovered rice crackers with sesame seeds, thanks to my friend Christy Zerfing. Christy Stumpf has been sharing some tasty gluten free goodies. Spaghetti squash with a tomato sauce could quench an urge for pasta. Looking for alternatives can make mealtimes interesting instead of a chore. The book, “Wheat belly,” has some good recipes.

And while you’re at it, people over a hundred years ago didn’t have cancer and some of the other diseases we find so commonplace.

The typical American diet is so full of chemicals and preservatives. If you can’t pronounce it and don’t know what it is or what it does to you, don’t eat it! And read the labels if you have allergies/intolerances. Did you know “modified food starch” could be flour and not corn starch?

Irene Vandecoevering stopped by to tell me her parents, Paul and Maria Klay, just celebrated their 55th wedding anniversary on March 3. Paul and Maria met

in Holland and were married when they were 18. They came to America about a year later, sponsored by Quakers from New York. They had virtually no money and Maria spoke no English at the time.

What a great adventure that must have been! Congratulations to both of you on this impressive milestone.

My Garibaldi “Dad” Lon Meisenhelder will be celebrating a birthday on March 13 along with Greg Simon.

They both originally hail from York, Pennsylvania. Bill and Sherry Creech are also celebrating birthdays.

While hanging up flyers for the Crab Races, I took the opportunity to check out the Jedi Sea Shop in Garibaldi.

You can’t miss it - it’s the shop with the boat and some festive mannequins in the front (weather permitting).

Jeff and Diane Walters took a leap of faith and decided to open their shop here. Diane was on hand to give me the tour. It features kites, t-shirts, sweatshirts, great souvenirs and some really cute things as well as taffy and snacks. Stop by to welcome them and take a look around!

Have a great week and take time for yourself. As my father always told me, you can’t take care of others if you don’t take care of yourself.

Thank you...

encepost readers are invited to help create a Community Park in Pacific City. The first step involves erecting a fence to define the park’s two-plus acres- costs are estimated at $27,000. Community members are needed to buy a foot of fence for $25, two feet for $50, or whatever you can afford; there’s a matching fund, so the net effect is two feet for the price of one. Go to nestucca.org, click on “donate” and choose the Community Park Fund. Those low on funds can pitch in by volunteering for the cause; click “volunteer” on the website, then complete and submit the form.

Speaking of volunteerism, Celeste Lebo tells me that locals are invited to join Tillamook Watershed Council to pot bare-root trees at Camp Tillamook.

Help is needed from 9 until 3 on Wednesdays, March 12 and 19, and from 10:303 on Monday, March 17.

Spike Klobas left me a message that her husband Randy and Bill Leonards saw the first swallow of the season on Eighth Street NW Cape Meares where there are a number of swallow bird houses.

On my weekly trips to Forest Grove, I see lots of buds and greenery starting on trees and shrubs. And a sure sign of spring is all the pretty yellow daffodils in bloom in people’s yards.

It brightens my day knowing better things are on the

way soon. Sure is rainy and dismal and only rain in sight the rest of the week.

Tillamook High School’s Marathon Relay fundraiser was held Saturday, starting at the Cape Meares Loop and ending at Pacific City.

The funds raised will go towards the high school team’s spring break training trip to the Grand Canyon and additional conditioning equipment. One runner, two runners as partners, or a five person team can race the 26.2 miles along the Three Capes Scenic Loop. There were different legs of the race ranging from four to seven miles.

The course runs by six state parks, two national wildlife refuges and multiple county parks. Runners could catch views of Tillamook Bay, Netarts Bay and the Pacific Ocean. There was a good turn-out for this event.

Cars and runners were lined up on both sides of Bayocean Road waiting for the race to start at 9 a.m. Saturday morning, March 1.

The 27th annual Beachcombers’ Fun Fair took place in Ocean Shores, Wash., March 1-2. Cape Meares was well represented by Sue Beckman, Ann Kanyid, and Pete and Ellen Steen. Sue and Ann took home blue (1st), red (2nd), white (3rd) and green (honorable mention) ribbons for exhibits as diverse as a collection of heart-shaped rocks, an illustration of the life cycle of a sand dollar (with specimens), and a fancy birdhouse “condo” decorated with agates and beach rope. Ellen and Pete’s

exhibits won ribbons, too, and covered a lot of ground as well, from foreign bottles to glass floats to a shelf made out of a tsunami board.

Ellen and Pete had one exhibit that was very unusual. It was a 15” statue of a Buddha named Hotei, one of the seven Japanese gods of good fortune. They found him in the sand about a year ago, covered with algae and gooseneck barnacles. Pete gently scraped him clean with a cedar shingle and, presto, a blading, fat Buddha with an infectious grin appeared! Hotei is the god of good health and abundance and his statue is ubiquitous in Japan. No personal information was on the statue, so Pete and Ellen kept him to grace their home. Hotei won the People’s Choice award at the Beachcombers’ Fun Fair this year.

Concolences to the Bob Fitzgerald family. Bob Fitzgerald passed away on Feb. 20. He moved to Cape Meares and retired with his family in a house he had build on Third Street in Cape Meares. He enjoyed the panoramic view from his home of the ocean. He was a good neighbor and friend. He helped to support Cape Meares Community Association projects and events. He will be missed by all who knew him.

If you are a member of Cape Meares Lighthouse and Wildlife Refuge and would like to volunteer as a lunch break volunteer please call me at 503-842-7487 or email me bennettbj@centurylink.net

op o’ the morning to you! Be sure to wear your green or you might get pinched.

Rich Riley is now coaching Chris Henley, a junior from Tillamook High, in boxing. Recently they went to Redmond, Ore., as spectators to the Oregon Golden Gloves Tournament. Chris has his first bout in March, so let’s wish them luck! Kudos to Rich. As busy as he is, he still finds time for others.

Be sure to check out the Community College Spring Class Schedule. There’s a ballroom dance class, taught

by Wally Nelson, that I highly recommend. Dale and I are on our fifth year taking the class, but there are so many folks that are just beginning who dance like Fred and Ginger by the end of the class.

Their weren’t as many people at the Parks and Rec Spaghetti dinner this year but it was still fun. It was wonderfully decorated, and Dale and I, as always, had a special evening with our friends, new friends, and neighbors.

BTW the Parks and Rec are through with their bingo on Sunday afternoon. We had a delightful time calling numbers a few weeks ago and from the sound of it many folks attended this year and helped make this season a success. Keep your eyes open for their bingo next winter.

I

am sitting here writing this during our last rain and wind storm, hoping we don’t blow away and wondering should I build an ark. I hope this is the last of them for the year as I am beginning to get the doldrums from staying in so much. I am so ready to take some walks and exercise my ankle more.

I stopped in the library to check on Jeremiah and he was swimming around having a great time with all of his friends and family. It is almost time for him to be released and I am sure he is like me and ready to get out and do something other than swimming in circles.

Mark your calendars for Benny and the Bay City Rockers playing at 2nd street market on March 14 at 6 p.m.

This is a free performance and all are welcome to come and sing and dance or just enjoy the great music. The theme this month is “Green” as we will be celebrating Mardi gras and St. Patrick’s Day. Hope to see you there.

The Bay City Arts Center in collaboration with the Oregon State University’s Open Campus present a new program called Art to Market.

This program will consist of 3 workshops designed to provide tools, resources, information, and inspiration to local artists interested in taking their passion and turning it into profit.

The first workshop, “Producing your Product” is scheduled for Wednesday, April 2 from 5:30 p.m. - 8:30 p.m. at the Bay City Arts Center. This course is open

NOTES FROM THE COAST It’s pretty low key and oh so entertaining.

Coming up soon is our Spring SOLVE Beach Cleanup. Thousands of volunteers will head for the coast March 22, 10 a.m.- 1 p.m.

Here in Rockaway, we will all meet at the Lions Club, where you will get bags, gloves and everything you need. After cleanup, the Lions will serve lunch to the helpers. So help keep our seven miles of beach, pristine and beautiful.

Our Meals for Seniors are planning another awesome breakfast for you! Surprise the cook in your house and take them out to enjoy French toast, sausage, scrambled eggs and more on March 29 10-1. My mouth is already watering.

Well, a very happy birthday to our little lass Dee Dee Albee! She shares her big day with St Patrick. Just hoping you can find some corned beef and cabbage this year. If you see her out and about, be sure to wish her a wonderful day.

The event of the year is quickly coming up. Our Rockaway Beach Fire Department is proud to announce the dates of their annual Fire Festival. July 12 and 13 are your must save dates on your calendar. Just remember all the proceeds will go toward supplies needed for the Fire Department and Emergency Center.

Last but not least, the Lions are having their St Patrick’s Day Dinner this Sunday, the 16 from 12-5. You can both enjoy a corned beef and cabbage meal and celebrate the holiday with family and friends. Be sure to join them at the Lions Club ($10 @ the door).

“Be kind to unkind peoplethey need it the most.” That’s Rockaway Beach “Sugar Coated!”

to individuals of all ages with an interest in the Arts. Join us and local arts professionals to share tips and tricks of the industry, network with fellow arts enthusiasts, and learn valuable skills to start up or fine tune your very own arts business.

The first workshop, “Producing your Product” will focus on cost saving tips and resources when creating quantity sales orders, techniques for do-it-yourself projects that can save valuable time and money when creating your art, and resources to purchase discounted, quality arts supplies that can achieve the same quality product for significantly less investment.

The “Producing your Product” workshop will be led by local artist and high school art teacher Breanna Moran, local artist and photographer, Charles Wooldridge, and local graphic designer, Rick Henry.

Each of these artists have years of industry experience covering a diverse array of arts mediums and interests.

There will be information provided to help artists of all types including: pottery, photography, painting, handmade goods and textiles, stone sculpting, and greeting card creation to just name a few. Upcoming workshops in this series include “Promoting your Product” and “Profiting from your Passion” held in late April and early May. Tuition is $10 per class, or $25 for all three if you are a Bay City Arts Center member.

All supplies and handouts for the course will be provided and light snacks and refreshments will be served. Please contact Leeauna Perry at the Bay City Arts Center office to reserve a space; drop-in participants are welcome.

Mr. News Guy explains ethics I sn’t it unethical, Mr. News Guy, to demand payment to be interviewed?

Just ask the questions.

These aren’t even my questions. What are ethics and how can they work for you?

The Society of Professional Journalists Code of Ethics states it is the duty of the journalist to provide a fair and comprehensive account of events and issues unless there was a car wreck with great photos.

What?

Blood helps. If there’s no blood, then a kid, preferably under five. Or a puppy. A kid with a puppy? Click bait.

Now you’re talking journalism.

It doesn’t say that.

Something close. Anyway it should if you want to stay in business.

You can’t be serious.

As a heart attack. Give the average reader the choice of an analysis of controlled forest fire burns versus benign neglect and a story on puppy barking alerting a four-yearold who called 911 and saved a girl scout troop selling cookies in a burning mall and

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

see which story runs.

But, Mr. News Guy, what about the duty of the paper to inform?

Inform this. The most popular “paper” is an online news source called The Daily Beast, as in the news is a beast and always needs feeding, previously Newsweek.

Photos eat text 8 to 1, and they’re celebs, criminals, dictators, sports figures, you can fill in the rest. Once they get the eyeballs they might slip in something without cleavage, like one religious sect massacring another. Guess what percentage read it?

You’re painting a pretty bleak journalistic picture, Mr. News Guy. What about the Wall Street Journal? They’re mainly text and serious.

Right. They’re paid more than I am. What a concept, a paper for the rich.

The next question I’m supposed to ask, due to all the fame and natural sex appeal that comes with your job, how do I get a career as a newspaper columnist, also?

Forget for a minute about the big salary, the acknowledgement from the community in the form of head nods when I’m out and about and a new nonverbal sign of endearment with which I’m not familiar, the holding up a fist out front and the clasping of the elbow with the other hand, which means, I’m sure, power to you, Mr. News Guy. This calling was my destiny.

Isn’t it true no one else on staff wanted it?

That’s not one of the questions. How do I get me some ethics, I can hear you asking.

How do I get me some ethics?

An experienced, smart editor, comfortable walking the razor edge of danger, is invaluable in a search for ethics.

I have such an editor now.

You have absolutely no shame, do you?

When it works. It also

helps to have a fine eye for color. Let’s say I turn in a column comparing the Thanksgiving Dinner with several of the body parts of, oh, say, Dolly Parton, with photos, and my editor turns red and says, you’re fired, I know I’ve pushed the edge of the ethics envelope. If, instead, she just turns pale and says we are so not printing this, I know I’m closer to the mark.

Mr. News Guy, are you the definition of journalistic integrity, it says here?

Scratch that. I’m just a schmuck trying to make a living. I didn’t create this world.

I just comment on it.

I heard you were sent to a workshop and they had a lifeboat exercise. Your group decided to throw you out of the lifeboat even though they had plenty of food and water.

Comment?

I guess they didn’t like what I said. So, how old are you, twelve? Most of the staff looks twelve to me. Listen, sweetheart, on second thought, don’t worry your pretty little head about any of this, ok?

No, I shouldn’t say that. You know right from wrong, don’t you? Just write it.

Creamery association fights hunger during March For the eighth year in a row, the Tillamook County Creamery Association is helping fight hunger during March as presenting sponsor of the “Great Food Drive.”

A benefit for the Oregon Food Bank, the “Great Food Drive” is a hunger relief and awareness campaign to raise food for those in need, both in Tillamook County and across Oregon.

“At Tillamook, we feel it is our responsibility to help make a positive difference in the communities of Tillamook County and around the state,” said Patrick Criteser, president and CEO of the creamery association.

As part of TCCA’s par-

• Throughout March, the Creamery Café at TCCA’s visitor center will offer a lunch special benefiting the “Great Food Drive” that features a Tillamooker Grilled Cheese with a cup of tomato soup.

• The Tillamook ice cream counter will offer a special featuring the Peanut Butter Cookie Ice Cream Sandwich.

• And during Oregon’s spring break week Mar. 23-29, anyone purchasing a pound of any variety of Tillamook fudge at the counter will receive one-half pound free – if they donate $2 or two non-perishable food items.

A portion of these proceeds will be donated to the Oregon Food Bank, Tillamook County services. ticipation in the food drive, during March the company is donating a portion of the proceeds from any size or variety of Tillamook cheese

sold throughout Oregon and southwest Washington to the Oregon Food Bank.

This year’s goal is to raise 600,000 pounds of food to fill

the shelves of regional food banks and agencies serving families in Tillamook County and Oregon.

Criteser said that in addition to more than $190,000 the company has contributed to the Oregon Food Bank through the “Great Food Drive” over the past seven years, TCCA also has donated more than $200,000 worth of Tillamook cheese over the past eight years to local schools for their lunch programs.

And TCCA partners with the Regional Food Bank of Tillamook County to provide year-round support through monetary and product donations, as well as volunteer hours.

‘Play Park’ is back in business and waiting for you “Play Park,” a community resource for parents of children five years of age and younger, provides a time for parents to simply play with and enjoy their child/children.

It offers a large indoor play space for the children with

numerous large motor and fine motor toys, all safe and developmentally appropriate.

It is also a place to informally meet other parents, to relax and visit with each other. As weather permits, the church’s outdoor playground will be

available. One parent or other responsible adult must be present throughout the play period. There is no fee for participating in Play Park.

It is held in the Tillamook United Methodist Church’s Fellowship Hall, 3808 12th

St. (On 12th St., east of the Tillamook High School and the 5 Rivers Retirement and Assisted Living Center) Come see them Mondays: 9 a.m. until noon. Drop-in!

He is 14 lbs. worth of flame point Siamese mix, neutered, very loving & accustomed to children & dogs. Come meet him this weekend!

Hey, You! It’s Me Barley!

Barley here, I am writing in hopes of finding my perfect family. I like: kids, dogs, traveling, lap-sitting, walks. I don’t like: being alone.

I’m seven, very healthy, a nice size, terribly handsome, part Jack Russell, part rat terrier. Couldn’t we at least meet for a first date?
