Elderly woman shot burglar to thwart entry into home before police fight to arrest suspect T

he Tillamook Police Department received a report on January 4, at 6:47 a.m. that an unknown male was trying to break into a home. While officers were enroute to the call, the suspect, later identified as Dane Jameson Rowland, 25, of Neskowin, broke a window and gained entry into the home and approached the resident with bloody hands. The elderly female resident shot Rowland and he fled.

Rowland then attempted to gain entry into two other homes in the area. A witness reported that another resident came outside and as he approached, he kept the suspect from gaining entry into their home by pointing a firearm at him and going back into their house and locking the door. According to law enforcement reports, Rowland fled toward the back of the house.

Tillamook Police Officer Mike Hanratty arrived and found Rowland attempting to kick in the front door of a home. The suspect then tried ripping a screen off a window. Officer Hanratty confronted Rowland, who did not comply with Officer Hanratty’s commands.

Rowland was tased twice without effect. He then began violently attacking Officer Hanratty. Officer

Hanratty was able to subdue Rowland and control him until back-up officers arrived.

“Officer Hanratty did not stop fighting,” said Tillamook Police Chief Ray Rau. “He did his job and held that guy until help got there, despite getting hit hard a bunch of times.” Chief Rau credits the actions of Officer Hanratty in preventing further crimes, injuries or worse. “There could have been loss of life if Mike hadn’t kept a hold of the guy. This could have been tragic.”

Oregon State Senior Trooper John King and Trooper Silkwood arrived and handcuffed Rowland even as he continued to fight with the three officers.

Tillamook Police Sgt. Nick Troxel began his investigation with the assistance of TCSO Detectives.

Rowland and Officer Hanratty were transported to Tillamook Hospital for treatment.

Rowland had lacerations to his hands from breaking windows and a small caliber gunshot wound to his arm from being shot by the elderly woman.

Officer Hanratty was treated and released with serious injuries to his head and face.

“When one of my people gets hurt on my watch, it kills me,” said Chief Rau. “The suspect admitted to knowing exactly what he was doing to Mike. This was an intentional assault on an officer.”

Officer Hanratty served Tillamook County for 23 years as a criminal deputy for the Tillamook County Sheriff’s Office. After he retired, he joined the former Rockaway Beach Police Department before becoming an officer for the Tillamook Police Department in 2020.

“Can you imagine what it would be like to wake up in your home and find a stranger with his hands covered in blood walking toward you?” asked Tillamook County Sheriff Joshua Brown. “I have much respect for the brave actions of the woman for protecting herself from a criminal who entered her home. I am also grateful for the restraint shown by Officer Hanratty, and Troopers King and Silkwood in taking the suspect into custody.

And, also for the restraint demonstrated by the resident that kept the suspect out of his house.”

“This shows the commitment and positive relationship between our law enforcement agencies, as

Dane Jameson Rowland well as Tillamook Ambulance and Tillamook Fire,” said Tillamook Police Chief Rau. “This is where it all comes together. This is why it works here.”

Rowland is facing multiple charges and has been booked on charges of Burglary, Menacing, Assault, Criminal Trespass and Criminal Mischief.

Local law enforcement are asking for any more possible victims of his crime spree on January 4, 2022.

If you have any pertinent information to report, please call the TCSO Tip Line at 503-815-3319.

Tillamook Police Department is the lead investigating agency for this incident and the investigation is ongoing.

Senate district 16 PCPS nominate three Adventist Health to provide at-home test kits, isolation women to finish Betsy Johnson’s term guidelines now updated T

Nadia Gardner

Melissa Busch

Rachel Armitage

ast week, Democratic Precinct Committee Persons from Clatsop, Columbia, Multnomah, Tillamook, and Washington counties nominated Melissa Busch (Warren), Rachel Armitage (Warren), and Nadia Gardner (Arch Cape) to complete the remainder of Betsy Johnson’s term in Salem.

Columbia County resident Melissa Busch lives in Warren, Oregon with her partner and three children. Busch is a home health nurse who travels the county visiting patients in their homes and long-term care settings, providing care and connection before and throughout the COVID-19 pandemic.

She has also volunteered at numerous vaccine clinics in the county.

“I know the challenges our community faces because I see my patients navigating those challenges every day,” Busch says. “Parents lack affordable childcare, schools lack crucial resources, and families are regularly confronted with impossible choices like whether to buy groceries or pay for prescription medications.

As a working mother and a union member, I understand how important it is that we have family wage jobs, good benefits, and safe working conditions. This was true before the

COVID-19 pandemic. As our next State Senator I will stand up for our community just like I stand up for my patients.”

Busch announced her intention to run for Johnson’s seat in November, 2021. Her endorsements include the Oregon Nurses Association and Chair of the Oregon House of Representatives Committee on Health Care, Representative Rachel Prusak.

Columbia County resident Rachel Armitage lives in Warren, Oregon with her husband and stepdaughter.

She previously worked as a Legislative Assistant in the 2016 and 2017 legislative sessions, focusing on constituent service and issues such as education, and rights for foster youth.

If appointed, Armitage’s legislative experience will allow her to hit the ground running in the Legislature with a focus on jobs and housing.

“As a lifelong Oregonian and the daughter of a teacher and a pastor, I know that community is often what gets us through hard times,” said Armitage. “That’s why I’m seeking this appointment. Our community needs a leader in Salem who brings us together even when we have strong disagreements—who will be an independent voice for rural Oregonians.”

Nadia Gardner is a 20-year North Coast resident, who has always been very active in local politics. She lives in the unincorporated Clatsop County community of Arch Cape with her partner and six year old son. She is the Chair of the Clatsop County Planning Commission. She is elected as a Director on the Arch Cape Domestic Water Supply District Board. In addition to providing critical governance and financial oversight, the Board is leading the acquisition of Arch Capes’s 1,500-acre forested drinking watershed.

“I am a scientist with expertise on our forests, rivers, estuaries and ocean and how they contribute to human health and community livability. My scientific background leads me to find proven solutions to tough problems,” Gardner says. “I am running because this is a critical moment, and I am the dedicated, knowledgeable, and experienced candidate to bring forward the right solutions.”

Clatsop, Columbia, Multnomah, Tillamook, Washington, and Yamhill County Commissions will hold a joint meeting on January 14th to select Johnson’s replacement.

The term for that Senate seat runs through 2022.

illamook County Health Department reports 41 COVID-19 cases from Dec. 31 through Jan. 2 for the weekend case count, 91 from Dec. 26 through Jan. 1 for the 7-day case count, and 118 cases from Dec. 19 through Jan. 1 for the 14-day case count. The total number of cases for December was 256. Administrator Marlene Putman reported during a community update Tuesday, Jan. 4, there was 100 more cases of COVID-19 during the month of December than in October.

Tillamook County has had 49 COVID-related deaths, as of Jan. 4.

“Forty are confirmed not vaccinated, one had no vaccine record and eight are fully vaccinated,” Putman said.

The test positivity rate from Dec. 26 through Jan. 1 was 18.7, Putman said. For the previous 7-day period, the rate was at 7.9 percent.

“We do have some active outbreaks, five confirmed and 14 that are pending with investigation,” Putman said. “Right now, we have 19 outbreaks that are under monitoring.”

Oregon Health Authority reported a workplace outbreak as of Wednesday, Jan. 5, at Tillamook County Creamery Association with 12 cases.

The health department continues to provide COVID-19 testing through the 8th Street acute care clinic. Testing will expand beginning the week of Jan. 10 to 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Testing is also available at Adventist Health Tillamook and Rinehart Clinic.

TIMELESS FITNESS for the Body & Brain Here at Prestige Senior Living Five Rivers, we offer innovative programming that helps our residents exercise both their bodies and their brains.

There’s one program that accomplishes both at the same time: Ageless Grace,® a unique brain-body exercise program that our residents find both challenging and fun.

Throughout January, the creator of Ageless Grace,® Denise Medved, will be hosting a free webinar series where she will showcase many of the exercises that make up the inventive program, explain the purpose behind each of them and showcase how they play into the Ageless Grace® program.

“You have some other testing options that are hopefully to become available soon,” Putman said. “Adventist Health will be providing home tests to the public.

Stay tuned about their availability.

We’re waiting with our public health team whether we’re going to receive those additional testing kits to make them available to the public. Expect to have more information in the coming weeks.”

Isolation guidelines have been updated. For those who test positive, whether vaccinated or not, should isolate for five days if they are asymptomatic or their symptoms are resolving, followed by five days of wearing a mask when around others. The five-day quarantine does not apply to health care setting or K-12 schools.

People, regardless of vaccination status, with severe to critical illness or who are severely immunocompromised, should isolate for at least 20 days since symptoms began or their first positive test, whichever is earlier, and have been fever-free without the use of feverreducing medications with other symptoms resolving for at least 24 hours.

Putman said one of the most important actions people can do to protect themselves and others is to get fully vaccinated, including receiving a booster shot when eligible. Those eligible for a booster dose include those 18 years and older six months after completion of the Moderna series, those 16 years and older if six months after completion of the Pfizer series, and for those 18 years and older two months after a single dose of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine.

Permanent mask proposal takes shape Zoe Gottlieb Country Media

Oregonians may soon face an indefinite indoor mask mandate.

As the expiration of the state’s temporary indoor mask rule draws near, a permanent replacement is under review by state health officials.

The Oregon Health Authority (OHA) filed a proposed rulemaking notice in December with the Oregon Secretary of State’s Office, requesting changes to the current rule which expires Feb. 8, 2022.

The proposed permanent rule, if effected, would replace the current 180-day temporary rule with one of “indefinite” duration.

“This is necessary to control COVID-19, reduce This six-page proposed rule change would make Oregon’s indoor mask mandate indefinite. hospitalizations and deaths, and provide general health protection to people in Oregon,” the proposed rule change states.

The rule generally applies to all businesses in Oregon.

The OHA is also proposing a civil penalty of $500 per person per day for non-compliance with the rule.

In addition, the rule change would grant the Oregon State Public Health Director or the Oregon State Health Officer “the authority to rescind and reinstate all or parts of the rule,” according to the notice.

The rule can be repealed if “on the ground” conditions approve, which are currently not tied to any metrics, according to State Epidemiologist Dr. Dean Sidelinger.

Before the filing, an administrative rules advisory committee met Thursday, Dec. 2 to review the need for the OHA’s proposed rule and receive the input of small businesses and organizations, the notice states.

The proposal comes shortly after the Omicron variant’s arrival to the United States on Dec. 1, according to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC).

The OHA also reported in December, that 22 U.S. states

had detected at least one COVID-19 case attributed to the Omicron variant. Among 43 cases with initial followup, one hospitalization and no deaths were reported.

As of Monday, Dec. 13, there were three confirmed cases of Omicron in Oregon.

At a virtual press conference, Gov. Kate Brown reaffirmed the importance of responsible masking practices amid news of the new variant.

“As Omicron is spreading, more states are starting to follow Oregon’s lead in reinstating mask requirements,” she said. “Thank you to every Oregonian who continues to mask up. You are making a difference.”

“Science shows that masks work,” OHA Lead Communications Officer Jonathan Modie told The Chronicle.

“They save lives. That’s why OHA issued the temporary rule requiring indoor mask use and why OHA plans to issue the permanent rule with this requirement.”

Modie said the OHA’s decision to move forward with the proposal was data-based.

“OHA reviewed several studies related to COVID-19 transmission and masking, including national data on the effectiveness of masks in preventing the transmission

of the virus,” Modie said.

“OHA continues to monitor scientific data with regard to masking and control of COVID-19.”

Data from the CDC shows a 1-2% reduction in COVID case growth and death rates associated with state-issued mask mandates in a study of 2,313 U.S. counties up to 81-100 days after implementation.

Oregon is one of eight states to retain a mask mandate nearly two years into the pandemic, according to the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP).

Modie said the OHA’s approach is to continue to look at the impact of the virus on Oregonians and Oregon’s health care system.

“And make recommendations based on what we see on the ground, and either increase control of the pandemic because things are getting worse or relax the current precautions we have in place because the disease rate has gone down significantly,” he said. “We want hospitals to be at a point where they are able to handle the volume of patients they see from COVID-19 and other conditions without needing the tremendous additional staffing they have in order to provide that quality of care to all Oregonians.”

Members of the public will have the opportunity to comment on the proposal, according to Modie.

The OHA is accepting comments on the proposed rule until Jan. 24, and a public hearing will be conducted Jan. 20 from 10 a.m. to noon.

ODHS announced increased SNAP benefits will continue in Jan for most

The Oregon Department of Human Services (ODHS) has announced that most Oregonian’s who receive increased emergency SNAP benefits will continue to receive them in January.

The ODHS said approximately 382,000 SNAP households will receive approxie mately $61 million in extra food benefits in addition to their regular SNAP benefits.

“We are grateful to have the opportunity to provide emergency benefits to most SNAP households in Oregon,” ODHS Self-Sufficiency Program Director Dan Haun said. “We also know that many Oregonians are still struggling to meet their basic needs due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and we encourage them to contact our partners at 211 and the Oregon

Food Bank for support during this difficult time.”

The federal government has approved emergency monthly allotments since March 2020, according to the ODHS. SNAP households will be able to collect the allotments on Jan. 11 while new households will have funds available at the end of the month.

Oregon to receive $92 million for water improvements STAFF REPORT Oregon will soon receive $92,079,000 in federal funding from the bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. The funding is to strengthen drinking and wastewater systems and replace dangerous lead service lines and pipes, according to Oregon Congresswoman Suzanne

Bonamici. The funding is the first round of a five-year investment authorized by the new law.

“Access to safe and reliable drinking water is critical for our communities to stay healthy and thrive,” Bonamici said. “Lead and contaminants pose serious health threats to Oregonians. As a mom and a policymaker, I’m especially concerned about making sure

our kids can drink clean water at home and at school. This federal investment of $92 million will provide clean safe drinking water to hundreds of thousands of Oregonians.

That’s what it means to build back better.”

Bonamici said the bipartisan infrastructure law includes $50 billion for the Environmental Protection Agency to improve water

systems, which is the largest single investment in water in the nation’s history.

Over the next five years, $15 billion nationally will go toward replacing lead pipes and service lines across the country, with a special focus on advancing equity and justice for under-resourced communities, according to Bonamici.

Every county in Northwest Oregon was hit hard by the Pandemic Recession Business restrictions and closures affected all counties; the travel industry, so important to the coast, saw an unprecedented drop in business and employment; and Oregon State University in Benton County ended in-person instruction.

It’s not surprising then that in 2020 gross domestic product fell in all five counties from the previous year.

The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is the value of goods and services produced in an area and is a key economic indicator.

Tillamook County Tillamook County has the smallest GDP in the region, but it led the pack for GDP growth (26%) from 2010 to 2020. Tillamook County did not escape the Pandemic Recession, however. Its GDP shrank by 5.1% from 2019 to 2020. Most of Tillamook County’s GDP growth from 2010 to 2020 came from private industry.

Output from both manufacturing and professional and business services more than doubled over the period. Retail trade output increased by onethird. Although the county has the smallest GDP in the Northwest region, its growth led to

Lincoln County During the Great Recession Lincoln County’s GDP fell six out of seven years from 2006 through 2013. In inflationadjusted terms it took until 2016 for the county’s GDP to surpass the level it first reached in 2006. The pandemic recession then hit Lincoln County very hard; for two months the county had an unemployment rate in excess of 20% as its travel industry collapsed. The county’s inflation-adjusted GDP was actually 5.2% lower in 2020 than it had been in 2010 during the Great Recession even though nominal GDP increased by $302 million.

Real private-sector GDP fell by 7.7% over the 10 years.

Some Lincoln County industries did grow. Retail trade grew by 28% in real terms and professional and business services grew by 12%. Construction, finance, leisure and hospitality, and manufacturing had the real value of their output fall compared with 2010.

Columbia County Columbia County had more modest GDP growth over the past 10 years. Columbia County’s GDP fell in the years after the Great Recession before rebounding more in 2015. It has grown by 5.9% in real terms since 2010, a gain of $344 million. The growth was due entirely to the private sector, which grew by nearly 12%.

Government GDP fell by 21% in Columbia County. Services, especially professional and business services and health care, powered its GDP growth.

Construction also grew rapidly over the 10 years. Manufacturing GDP declined from 2010 to 2020.

Clatsop County Clatsop County’s employment also had solid GDP growth during the recovery from the Great Recession, and it was also hit very hard by the Pandemic Recession. Clatsop County’s GDP grew by $437 million from 2010 to 2020 which yielded total inflationadjusted growth of 4.7% over the period. The county’s growth came primarily from its private-sector service industries. Clatsop County’s retail and wholesale trade, health Women’s and Family Health across the street from the hospital.

hat holiday blast of wintry weather meant trouble on the roads for a lot of locals. Jerry and Sonya Thompson’s grandson was leaving Cape Meares after a Christmas visit when he encountered a car in the ditch on the north side of Bayocean Road, right after the dike road, and another vehicle trying to pull it out. However, neither driver had put out road flares or cones, so that when the Thompsons’ grandson came around that blind corner, he had to swerve to avoid the other cars. That put his car into the ditch on the south side of the road! He had

Thank you, Tillamook County workers. The road department plowed our one entrance/egress, Bayocean Road, during December’s snow and ice. And when Cape Meares had a power outage the night of Jan. 2, PUD workers braved the raging wind and rain storm to restore power within a few hours.

Kudos to you all!

It might be steelhead time for you die-hards, but the weather gets too cold for this fisherwoman. I bow out of winter steelheading and switch to beachcombing. I persuaded Capt. Pete

to go out with me on New Year’s Eve. We discovered a decomposing mammal at the south end of Cape Meares beach. Jim Rice, Stranding Coordinator for Oregon State University (cell phone 541-270-6830), identified it as a California sea lion from a picture we sent him. We also found a white, oblong plastic float with a hole down the center, a foot in diameter and two feet in length. We had never found one that particular size and shape, so we brought that “treasure” home.

Happy New Year to one and all!

The second resource available to assist with PUD bills is their Customer Assistance Program. Donated funds (matched by the PUD) are made available at CARE ((2310 First Street, Tillamook) at 9 a.m. each Monday. Households who have received a pink “shut off notice” from the PUD may present that bill (along with other documentation) to qualify for assistance with up to 75% of the past due amount. This can be a Godsend for sure. We who can afford to should be reminded to donate what we can (with our PUD payment) to support our neighbors in need.

t is already the second week in January. The holiday season is behind us and I am working hard trying to think positive in this new year. Making music with my little ukulele helps, but with the new variant, I am not sure how much longer I will be comfortable playing with others. (Though we are totally socially distanced!) Oh well, life is truly amazing and in a while this will be an awful memory.

Meanwhile, their drivers continue to deliver to our seniors who can’t leave their homes.

Penny Cheek and Robin Swain are coordinating the future of our July Fourth parade together. This is a great team, and I am looking forward to future developments on this endeavor. They are trying to determine a new route for our parade and need lots of people volunteering. But, they have to dot all the i’s and cross all the t’s. I will continue to update you so please keep a lookout in my column. If you have ideas or want to get involved, email Penny at pennycheek@live.com.

Now that the holidays have passed, I got a Lions update about the Lions Thanksgiving and Christmas baskets. There were 23 Thanksgiving and 23 Christmas baskets given out to those that needed a bit of a boost through the holiday season. They were also able to hand out toys to 33 children.

As for the future, there are no plans for a pancake dinner or Bingo to begin yet. But, you can join and attend meetings at the Clubhouse. The Lions meet on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday at 11:30, and the Knight Lions meet on the 1st Tuesday at 6:30. These folks are there to serve our community. Consider joining them. Rockaway Beach loves their Lions!

“GET fit with Rhonda and Friends” will be starting up her weekly walks at the end of February. I will update you when I get word that she is starting the group up again.

GUEST COLUMN

Parent Education can be beneficial for all parents and caretakers Janeane Krongos Tillamook Family Counseling Center

T

he Tillamook Family Counseling Center (TFCC) is a partner organization of Northwest Parenting.

Northwest Parenting is a regional collaborative that provides families with parent education opportunities, family fun activities, workshops, and other parent supports.

This collaborative provides these services to families who reside in Tillamook County, Clatsop County, and Columbia County. Northwest Parenting operates the collaborative with three concepts in mind, including that: parents are children’s first and most important teacher, parenting can be hard, but support and knowledge can help, and that every parent can benefit from learning skills that can improve parenting.

If you have lived in Tillamook County for a while, it is possible that you per-

sonally know someone who has participated a Northwest Parenting program. If you are reading this column and have not had a chance to participate, I would encourage you to seriously consider it. Northwest Parenting programs are for all parents and caretakers.

There is no ideal participant, programs are open to parents and caretakers of all experience levels, genders, social economic status, education levels, and ages. Participants who attend programs that are sponsored by Northwest Parenting can expect to be treated with respect, receive a class schedule, receive required curriculum textbooks, connect with local parents, and to participate in whatever way feels safe.

If you are a parent or caregiver I encourage you continue reading this column to learn more about this collaborative: • Learn about Local Parenting Classes-Traditionally, Northwest Parenting and Tillamook Family Counseling Center offers two Active Parenting series per year.

This series last for a total of 7 weeks, each class is an hour and a half long. During the pandemic this class was

presented using the Zoom platform to protect both the participants and the parent education staff. In the series parents and caregivers will learn practical parenting tips from knowledgeable parent education facilitators, participate in guided discussions, and have opportunities to build relationships with local parents. Parents and caretakers who participate will get everything that they need to succeed in the series including access to an online classroom that has the class schedule and zoom link, Active Parenting workbook, Active Parenting guide, notebook, and a care packet that has supplemental parent resources that include problem gambling, alcohol and other drug, and suicide prevention information, and other information.

elcome to the third installment of our announcements of the Community Award nominees! This week we’re excited to introduce the nominees for Business of this Year.

The Business of the Year category encompasses any business in Tillamook County with 10 or more employees. This year we received seven nominees for the category, covering businesses throughout the county. Each nomination is made with a narrative and often letters of support to articulate why the nominees stand out. As always, we will share some of that background information in the announcements.

And now, without further ado, here are the nominees for Business of the Year: Braxling & Braxling, Inc.: Braxling & Braxling, Inc. is a second-generation contracting company that serves all of northwest Oregon with portable rock crushing, heavy hauling, road rocking and grading.

Originally launched in 1961 in Newport, the company is now based in Tillamook and has 30-plus employees.

The team is committed to serving Tillamook County, not only privately and commercial in road-based needs, but also they have shown commitment and dedication in benefitting Tillamook County in a time of need, including during the 2020 wildfires, when Braxling brought trucks and equipment to protect properties.

Garibaldi Portside Bistro: The owners of the Garibaldi Portside Bistro are beyond amazing. They’re friendly and accommodating and always work with our local Coast Guard to host holiday parties. They have worked hard to create a much-needed restaurant in Garibaldi, and they serve gourmet food that never disappoints.

Their commitment to providing local ingredients and caring for our first responders has made this restaurant a top pick for our family and for community members throughout Tillamook.

Manzanita Beach Getaway Vacation Rentals: Manzanita Beach Getaway helps support the community in several ways, including hosting events like the “Hall-O-Nita,” which allows the community and guests to trick-or-treat at small businesses in Manzanita safely. The business also donated more than 500 pounds of non-perishable food to the North County Food Bank, pledges to remain dedicated to hiring local community members and cared for its employees during the COVID-19 pandemic. Owner Danielle Johnson makes a conscious effort to keep her business impacts on locals in mind, and she works directly with neighbors to answer questions and concerns, so the whole community can be involved in welcoming tourists with ease.

Rendezvous Cabaret: This establishment has stayed open to serve the community of Tillamook during the hardships that the COVID-19 pandemic caused. Rendezvous enhances the quality of life in Tillamook County by hosting events and activities, as well as offering steady employment for those who work there. The staff and management make sure that each person that walk into the restaurant is greed with a smile and feels welcome.

Rendezvous is a wonderful part of Tillamook County that often goes above and beyond to support the community.

Tillamook County Transportation District (The Wave): Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, the TCTD has been a huge asset for so many who needed transportation throughout

Tillamook County. Even with staffing shortages and COVID precautions, they delivered quality and important services to the county. TCTD provides affordable, reliable transportation from the tip to the tail of Tillamook County and beyond. In 2022, the TCTD celebrates 25 years of serving Tillamook County, and it is preparing to expand services even when other transportation districts in the state face service cuts.

TCTD has visible impacts on nearly every corner of Tillamook County.

Werner Family Brands: Werner Family Brands (which includes Werner Beef & Brew and Werner Gourmet Meat Snacks) experienced accelerated growth and expansion in 2021 despite the ongoing pandemic. This growth was realized through the additional creation of jobs and construction of new facilities. During the year, the company implemented increased wages for all employees and added benefits to enhance the work/ life balance of its team.

Werner Family Brands also showed their dedication to the community through donations, financial support and investing in employee health and wellness.

Zwald Transport: Zwald Transport is a young company with big dreams for providing all of Tillamook County’s commercial trucking needs. The company helps people gain a career, working side-by-side with Tillamook Bay Community College’s driving program. Zwald can hire these “green” drivers when other business can’t, due to insurance limitations.

The company also reached out to the community of commercial truck drivers to provide a barbecue lunch of appreciation in the Fall of 2021. ]Congratulations to these nominees for Business of the Year! We’ll be back again soon the final round of announcements. And remember, if you missed our announcements about Program of the Year, Development Project of the Year or Small Business of the Year, you can find the past articles online at tillamookchamber.org.

TALES FROM THE LIBRARY

Bill Landau Tillamook County Library

T

his week I am writing about some of the unusual things we have available for check out at the Tillamook County Library. These first items have been in our system for quite some time, but not a lot of people know about them. They are called Book Club Kits, and anyone who has been in a book club would call it the best idea in the world. Why? Because otherwise everyone in your book club needs to go out and buy a $25 book that they might not even like. If you pick one of our many book club kit titles, we have taken all the hassle away. Each kit contains 10 copies of the book, discussion questions, and a book group leader guide. Kits are checked out for six weeks, and can be reserved up to one year in advance. To reserve a book club kit, or for additional information, please call the Tillamook Library at 503-842-4792 ext.1760. If you want to see a list of available titles, go to our website and look under the “our services” tab.

Now let’s look at what we

call our “library of things”.

This is a fairly new trend among public libraries where progressive minds think of “things” we can offer the public that go well beyond the latest best-seller book. The first thing I want to highlight is a very powerful Orion Star Blast 4.5” reflector telescope!

You heard correctly! You can now take home this awesome telescope which will give you amazing views of stars, planets, and other objects in the sky. It comes with a couple of lenses and a how-to-use guide that will get your stargazing off to a fantastic start. Now all we need are some clear skies!

Along those same lines, we also have some really advanced binoculars that you can check out from your library. While not as powerful as the telescope, they are definitely easier to tote around. You can observe objects in the night sky, use them for birdwatching, or wildlife viewing. They are packaged with a manual and pocket guides to aid in getting the most enjoyment out of the binoculars.

If you prefer to stay indoors, our WiFi Hotspots may be something you want to check out. This is aimed at those of you who do not have the internet at home. If you take one of our hotspots home, all you need to do is to plug it in, and you can connect your personal device (smart phone, computer, laptop, or tablet) to the hotspot

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Thank you to Hospice

Healing starts with the actions of one

I would like to thank Hospice for the excellent car that they gave to George. You were absolutely wonderful and he really enjoyed you. I would also like to thank all of our friends, relatives and family for the beautiful flowers, cards and prayers. Also a thank you to St. Vincent Hospital to the doctors and nurses who cared for him during his stay with you. Also a big thank you to Waud’s Funeral Home. What a great community we live in! Appreciate all of you so much. God bless all of you!

This past year or two, it was so rough I am not sure how long it was, we’re the worst in my life. I had what most knew as an easy life, where opportunities were given to me for no good reason. Even though people did not know what life was in all reality for me. Others have had life worse. I would love to do my best to make sure no one has happen to them, even a fraction, of what happened to me. The kindness that has been shown to me throughout my life, resulted in my life being saved. I have not, as I feel others have not, been happy about that. At this point I am, because of others kindness, glad that there seems

Rose Hurliman and Family

to be a change for many. In what I hope to be a better way of living life. The start of my healing was made possible through the actions of 1 person. That person was able to help me see good again.

Which helped others see good. I feel like many people helped me, in a way, write this. I hope it helps heal a wound that never should have been. Thank you for listening and caring.

Vaccine Clinics on our School Grounds Vaccine clinics on the school grounds of Nestucca school district are enticing anyone they can to take a

vaccine without parental consent. No matter how you feel about the vaccines, it is not the school board’s decision but the parents of the children who have the authority to make that call.

This is child endangerment, enticing children (14+) to take a controversial vaccine which has been linked to inflammation of the heart, blood clots and swollen lymph nodes.

The push to vaccinate anyone who is not at risk is hysterical overreach. Especially when there is more than a 99% percent chance of defeating the covid 19 virus by allowing your body to create its own antibodies. We know this is much more effective than any vaccine in preventing the spread. I believe the Biden administration is now pushing for a 4th round of

Tuesday, January 11, 2022

booster shots. Many of us have natural immunity which means we can now see how the virus is fading into the background and will simply become another flu.

Radical elements of our society are trying to divide us and use scare tactics to influence the uneducated.

Going after our children is off limits !. Our Constitution, based on the Declaration of Independence guarantees its citizens the right to determine what is best for them and their

children . As a free Nation, we certainly have the right to decide what we put in our bodies and this includes our children. The Nestucca Valley superintendent needs to step down or be recalled ! Looks like we need camera’s in the classroom to ensure that our children are not being coerced and that our authority under natural law is not being undermined.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Behind the shadows and smoky rooms On the evening of January 3rd, 2022, less than three weeks after Betsy Johnson abruptly resigned from her state senate seat, seventy Precinct Committee People (PCPs) from all five counties in Senate District 16 convened in Seaside to select a slate of candidates to forward to the county commissioners, so that a replacement can be appointed within 30 days, and in time to be sworn in and participate in the short legislative session in February.

Even though Tillamook County accounts for only about 12% of the registered voters in this district, a full 30% of the PCPs arrived from the Land of Cheese, Trees, and Ocean Breeze.

In an open meeting, the PCPs heard from all eight candidates, and then began voting in a system designed to reflect both the diversity of those in attendance and representation from throughout the district.

Two hours after the meeting was called into session, three outstanding candidates had each obtained the majority of support from the voting PCPs: Rachel Armitage

Melissa Busch Nadia Gardner Three women who represent a new generation in Oregon politics. Although none of them live in Tillamook County, one lives just across the border. Another possesses significant policy experience, while a third has already compiled a strong team to support her.

The manner in which these candidates were selected demonstrates that the democratic process still works well, and we in Oregon can be proud.

There were no closed doors and smoky rooms to hide the process, but rather a fully transparent process that ensured inclusivity and offered a fair shake to each and every candidate.

All three candidates will soon appear before a joint meeting of the county commissioners of the five counties in the district, at which the commissioners will choose which young woman will represent us in Senate District 16.

2022 has started off well!

David McCall Tillamook Co. Democrats Bay City

Running again?

Dear Editor, (from a longtime Tillamook cheese head) America is looking straight into the eyes of a tornadostyle political year in 2022, and an even bigger one in 2024. How did democracies in the past handle situations where deeply divisive personalities on the political scene were disruptive to peace and good order?

Ancient democracies like Athens and Rome practiced preventative medicine.

Their legal systems required that populist demagogues interested in personal rule be sidelined from political activity. Those excitable personalities were actually required to leave their native soil for a number of years until they could remember how to act like good citizens. A famous case of ostracism/exile was Marcius Coriolanus in Rome.

The practice was so important to ancient democracies that even the best leaders who stumbled badly just once were affected. For example, Moses in ancient democratic Israel was excused from the Promised Land when he alienated God and civil society near the end of the Exodus journey in the wilderness.

Modern America did a similar thing in the early West. Sheriffs “warned out”

disruptive criminals, advising them to leave town and territory or face more severe consequences.

Even monarchies like that of Queen Elizabeth I understood the need for wild political figures to be reined-in, or, actually, reined-out. When Sir Walter Raleigh got too rambunctious on British soil, the Queen essentially exiled him to explore the New World.

Open Letter to Tillamook Board of Commissioners: Considering that Tillamook County Board of Commissioners has continued their march toward authoritarian control of Tillamook County by: Excluding those who cannot, or will not, wear masks under threat of arrest in order to merely address you in a public meeting; Applying arbitrary, unconstitutional rules concerning speech of citizens during public comment; Refusing to utilize meeting software that allows for virtual public comments; Refusing to read public

comments sent via email out loud at meetings, because it makes the county employees under pay from the citizen commenters “uncomfortable”; the citizens are left with very few means to redress their elected officials, the said commissioners, and therefore I am submitting this open letter to them.

While it was not unexpected in light of their past performance, I was somewhat surprised to see the Tillamook County Board of Commissioners passed a resolution placing Tillamook County in a state of emergency until June 2022 for COVID-19 without addressing of the negative aspects of such a resolution. Pray tell how is our county currently in an emergency from COVID-19?

Isn’t the current variant (Omicron) the equivalent of the common cold? Besides given the transmissibility of the current variant and longtime understanding of herd immunity, wouldn’t everyone hope to get Omicron in order to develop immunity to the other more virulent COVID-19 variants? Besides aren’t the vulnerable potentially protected by a vaccine?

There is NO emergency in Tillamook County. In fact, all urgent matters are a result

of you superseding your elected powers by taking unto yourselves power belonging to individuals and businesses. This is not to mention the dereliction of your duty on other matters, such as the condition of our county roads. All your adherence to Governor Brown’s unlawful, unscientific mandates has done nothing to stop the virus, but done much to damage the profitability of local businesses. The mandates have also subjected vulnerable persons to experimental medicines and social isolation leading to reduction in medical services, vaccine injury, unnecessary deaths, suicide and drug addiction. These tragedies are becoming your legacy.

I would ask the you immediately rescind this resolution, but if not please know many of the citizens of our county will continue to ignore your illegal seizure of power. Nor can you justify this action in order to receive more money for programs we do not want from the state of Oregon. You have no power except that granted to you by the people.

As a voter that you were elected to represent, I do not consent to this resolution.

April Bailey Beaver

Stronger safeguards needed for popular money saving apps STAFF REPORT Oregon Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum co-led a bipartisan letter from 33 Attorneys General to Rohit Chopra, Director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) calling for stronger consumer safeguards for money sharing platforms and apps.

Popular payment apps include Apple Pay, Venmo, Square, Zelle, and others.

The Attorneys General highlight a rise in consumer complaints related to these payment platforms, especially complaints from consumers about difficulties

reaching customer service representatives, inability to retrieve funds, and fraudulent money transfers by third party scammers.

These payment platforms are sometimes marketed as a solution for consumers without access to traditional banks, even though these apps are not considered a bank.

“Especially during the pandemic, consumers have depended on payment apps as a virtual and safe way to send money quickly,” Rosenblum said. “But as these platforms explode in popularity, so does the chance of being scammed

and defrauded. As our letter urges, it is particularly important these platforms employ safeguards to protect consumers from fraud and provide better customer service when things go wrong.”

The letter addresses three major issues: customer service, account access, and third-party scams.

Highlights from the letter include: Issue 1: Customer Service Complainants say that they can’t contact customer service representatives, and, when they do, they face long hold times or never

reach a human representative. A customer service email address or chat function is often difficult to find or requires navigating multiple layers to access.

Speaking directly with a customer service representative is an important feature that is still desired by many, and one that should not be overlooked even with advances in technology.

Issue 2: Account Access Other complaints focus on consumers’ inability to access or transfer money, including funds directly deposited into their accounts by their employer or the government, e.g., paychecks, unemployment benefits, and CARES Act funds. Such issues prevent consumers from using their own funds, and these problems are exacerbated by not being able to connect with customer service. Consumers may be locked out of their accounts without warning or explanation, or because the consumer has a problem with their email address or phone number, and the consumer may be

left without any further recourse.

Issue 3: Third-Party Scams Many consumers have been scammed out of hundreds or thousands of dollars by other users of these payment platforms.

Scammers are attracted to real-time payment platforms, in large part, because they do not need to reveal their true identity to set up an account. The complaints describe a wide range of scams. In some, third parties contacted consumers through social media offering investment opportunities or prize entries in exchange for payment.

In others, scammers pose as family members and request money from unsuspecting consumers. In some cases, fraudsters take advantage of the platforms’ limited customer support systems. Because it may be difficult to find contact information for customer service, many consumers resort to trying to find a phone number through an internet search. This leads

to consumers encountering fake customer service phone numbers, which direct consumers to scammers who engage in tech support scams.

The perpetrators of such scams offer to assist consumers for a fee (processed through the payment platform) or convince the consumer to allow them access to their device or their account, allowing the perpetrator to quickly drain the account of funds.

Next steps If you believe you have fallen victim to a payment app scam, report the fraudulent transaction to the company behind the money transfer app and ask if they can reverse the payment.

If you linked the app to a credit card or debit card, report the fraud to your credit card company or bank.

Ask if they can reverse the charge.

You can also report the scam to the Oregon Attorney General’s Office online at www.oregonconsumer. gov.

Pirate Boys hoops bring home win against the Royals Mike Weber For The Headlight Herald

After they were unable to play for one month, you would’ve thought that the Neah-Kah-Nie High Pirates boys basketball team would’ve been a little rusty while playing their first Northwest League game on Tuesday versus the Portland Christian Royals.

That certainly wasn’t the case though as the No. 15 ranked Pirates (1-0 NWL, 3-0 overall) appeared to be in midseason form as they steamrolled the Royals (1-3 NWL, 1-12 overall) 83-53 Jan. 4 at Portland Christian High School.

The Pirates, guided by second-year Coach Erick White, displayed a potent offensive attack, led by sophomore Anthony Allen, whose team-high 16 points led six players with double figure scoring.

“I was worried about the long layoff and it kind of felt like the opening game of the season again,” said White. “We’ve only played two games and we’ve only had four practices in the last month. I thought we would have first game jitters all over again. We had a little bit at the beginning, but we snapped out of it and then we just started playing good basketball. I’m

very proud of all the kids for the great performance that they all had and it was definitely and lot of fun.”

Because of COVID-19 safety and health protocols and some weather related situations too, the Pirates had many games canceled and their last game was Dec. 4 (a 46-41 win over Delphian). The Pirates seemed to be thrilled to be back on the hardwood floor as they outplayed the Royals in every aspect of the game, while outrunning them, outrebounding them and outhustling Portland Christian.

Neah-Kah-Nie trailed early at 6-0, but they quickly came back. After an 8-8 deadlock, junior wing Eddie Loza (13 pts.) fired in a three-point long range field goal putting Neah-Kah-Nie up 11-10 and the Pirates never trailed again in the contest.

“We played pretty well and I’m happy we won,” said Loza. “We’ve been going hard at it in practice and we came out and played well and I’m pretty happy that we won by a lot. It was a pretty easy game and it give’s us some momentum after being off for a month.

The Pirates took control of the momentum from that point and a rebound and putback shot by freshman Ethan Hanson (15 pts.) helped

Neah-Kah-Nie take a 17-10 advantage after the first quarter. The Pirates upped the lead to double digits when junior Jacobee Wilkinson (three pts.) sank two free throws, making it 26-15 with 2:59 left in the second quarter.

An 8-2 Pirates run, capped by a jumper in the land by senior wing Matthew Erickson (14 pts.), extended the margin to 34-17. Erickson is one of four Pirate seniors along with Matthew Spellman, Joseph Vega and Spider Hyde.

Spellman is a truly remarkable and inspirational athlete, who has played on the Pirates basketball team for four years, despite the fact that he has cerebral palsy.

“I didn’t score, but I had fun when I was out on the court and there was a lot of energy during the game,” said Spellman. “I started playing when I was younger and it was lot of work for me to get up to the level to play with these guys.”

“Matthew Spellman is a good hard, working and impressive player and he’s a good shooter and he’s a great guy in general and he’s a very valuable part of our team,” said Coach White.

The teams traded points for the remainder of the quarter and junior Espen White’s (10 pts.) two free throws, helped the Pirates build a 40-23

halftime lead. The Pirates were able to build a big lead by utilizing a tough and aggressive zone defense, while creating turnovers and then scoring a number of layups on fast break scoring opportunities.

The Pirates displayed solid perimeter shooting too and a three-pointer by Allen midway through the third helped put Neah-Kah-Nie up 46-28, forcing a PC timeout with 4:13 left in the quarter.

“It was good to come out here and play again and it’s always nice to start our league schedule with a win,” said Allen. “We have a lot of potential and I think our team might be a contender for the Northwest League title this year, which would be really nice for sure.

We’ve been playing a lot during the break and so this was like another day in the office for us. We played our best and that’s why we won.”

An Erickson three from the corner extend the lead to 51-31 with 2:45 left in the third and the Pirates led 58-39 after three. The Pirates just continued have a dominating performance in the fourth as they outscored the Royals 2214 to get the lopsided 30-point margin of victory.

Neah-Kah-Nie plays its next Class 2A Northwest League game Monday at 7:30 p.m. at Mannahouse Christian Acad-

Lady Pirates take down Royals 43-37 in road win Mike Weber For The Headlight Herald

Even though they didn’t play for nearly a month, the long layoff didn’t seem to have any effect whatsoever on the Neah-Kah-Nie High Pirates girls basketball team.

Playing for the first time since Dec. 8 (a 37-29 loss to Rainier), the Lady Pirates (1-0 NWL, 4-3 overall) appeared to be in midseason form as they won their Northwest League season opener 43-37 over the Portland Christian Royals (1-2 NWL, 3-8 overall) Jan. 4 at Portland Christian High School.

Led by the senior duo of Emma Miller (teamhigh 18 points) and Jordan White (nine pts.) the Pirates took control of the contest in the first quarter and led nearly the entire game to get their first victory since Dec. 7 (a 33-25 win over Warrenton).

Due to COVID-19 safety and health protocols and some weather related problems, Neah-Kah-Nie had many games canceled in December. Judging by their strong performance on Tuesday versus Portland Christian, the Pirates seemed very happy to be back on the court.

Neah-Kah-Nie, guided

by Coach Corey Douma, trailed 2-0 early and that was the only deficit they had during the contest. The Pirates gained the momentum early in the first quarter and led for the remainder of the game.

“Despite the fact that we were missing some players (Fayth Moschetti, Kennedy Fletcher, Bella

Hamann), I thought that everyone played really well,” said Douma. “It’s nice to see us come out here and respond with a win after being off for almost a month.

I didn’t even know if we would have our energy to play well enough. You lose conditioning after being off too. Everyone hustled like crazy though and that’s how we have to play in order to win. We did everything well and we executed in our one-two-two zone and we limited the scoring

by Portland Christian’s top players. We have a lot of athleticism on the team and I think this could be one of our best seasons in a few years.”

White’s rebound and putback jump shot under the basket knotted the score 2-2 with 6:28 left in the opening quarter and the Pirates never trailed again.

“We haven’t had a game in a few weeks, so we were all well focused on coming out here and getting a win,” said White. “It’s our first league game and we wanted to start out strong and that’s what we did. Considering that we had over three weeks off, I thought we all played pretty good.”

A jumper in the lane by Miller put Neah-Kah-Nie up 4-2. After deadlocked scores at 4-4 and 6-6, White fired in a three-point field goal, lifting the Pirates in front 9-6 with 3:17 left in the quarter.

“It feels good to get a win after we were off for awhile, but we’re excited to be back,” said Miller. “We took care of everything and it’s great to get a win. They (Royals) played tough defense, but we just tried to remain calm

and do what we could on offense and things worked out well for us. Our press was very effective and even though we haven’t had much time to practice it, it worked well for us. We’re so happy and it’s so much fun to be playing again.

We’re definitely going to be a contender for the league title this year.”

An 8-2 Pirates run was capped by Miller’s rebound and putback jumper in the lane, to help give NeahKah-Nie a 17-8 lead after the first quarter. The Royals responded with a rally in the second, outscoring the Pirates 8-4, trimming the margin to 21-16 at halftime.

The Pirates regained the momentum in the third, while utilizing an effective full court press to get steals and create turnovers by the Royals. Neah-Kah-Nie was able to get numerous fast break baskets, led Miller, White, junior Rose Koch (eight pts.) and sophomore Kailyn Stinnett (four pts.) as they combined on an 8-2 run, putting the Pirates up 29-18, forcing a Royals timeout with 3:53 left in the quarter.

The Pirates tough zone defense was just too much for the Royals to handle as Neah-Kah-Nie continued to benefit from Portland Christian turnovers and they got transition baskets on offense to extend the lead to 35-21 at the end of the third.

The Royals fought back in the fourth and played strong defense and started getting into an offensive rhythm too and they trimmed the margin to 39-37 with less than one minute left in the game.

TILLAMOOK COUNTY WELLNESS Michelle Jenck M.Ed., Community WellBeing Director Adventist Health Tillamook

E

very day we hear the results of another study, telling us what is making us unhealthy. Eat this, don’t eat that. Move like this, not like that. It can be overwhelming to figure out what to prioritize or even where to begin.

Awareness. This is where it all starts. We see things more clearly when we take a step back and give them our undivided attention. Take a few moments each day to breathe. Just be. Relax. In doing so, the busyness of the world, the noise of our self-talk, the daily to do list, they all disappear and we are simply left with ourselves and the truth. Layers of thought, emotion, and even traumatic events are often responsible for the “dis-ease” that causes disease. Without going through this process, it may not matter what changes we make to our nutrition or exercise habits. Our bodies seek balance. This applies to our emotional state as well.

When we are out of balance, there are a whole host of physiological processes that go off-line as well.

Unfortunately, the typical American lifestyle does not

Healthy beginnings: Where to start? lend itself to mind-body balance. Change is hard. Crazy hard. It’s really inconvenient.

It is human nature to take the path of least resistance.

It takes time and effort to change the way we live our lives. For most of us, this is where we end up – in a state of knowing we need to do something but not believing that we can really do anything about it. To be successful, we need to make the changes to our habits small, easy-toadopt, and enjoyable.

Tips for Successful Behavior Change Why we want to make changes is almost as important as what we want to change. The “why” often determines our chances for success. If we are making a change for our spouse or boss, or as a quick fix (think high school reunion), we might not be as emotionally invested as we need to be successful over the long term. You need to have good reasons to make any lasting change. Maybe it is to be around to see your kids or grandkids grow up or maybe it is about improving your quality of life. Whatever it is, it needs to be meaningful to you.

Setting SMART goals is key to successful behavior change. SMART is an acronym for research-based characteristics that signifi-

cantly increase the likelihood of reaching one’s goals. They should be: • Specific • Measurable • Attainable • Relevant • Time-Bound For example, if I want to walk 2 miles a day but am currently completely sedentary, I need to break down my goal into manageable pieces.

I also need to be realistic.

How far can I, and more importantly, will I, walk each day. Maybe it is just a daily walk to my mailbox for the first week. Then, I can walk to the end of the block, then 3 blocks, and so on until I have achieved my goal. It is important to set a time frame for each level of goal attainment.

This can be daily or weekly.

It needs to be short enough to generate immediate success but also long enough to form a new habit as a foundation for the next step and that usually takes about 8-10 weeks.

Work with your strengths and interests when approaching changes. If you like to cook, then it makes sense to find healthy recipes you would enjoy making. If you hate cooking, it will be important to simplify what nutrition changes you are making so that you can still be successful. It can be as simple as choosing the prepared veggie tray and a

container of hummus from the grocery store. This principle is especially important when it comes to physical activity. If you enjoy being outdoors, consider walking or hiking. If you like people, music or dancing, you could join a group fitness class. If you want something more mindful, try Tai Chi, Qigong or Yoga. The key is to look for ways to integrate a positive, healthy change with your personality, interests and strengths.

One of the reasons people struggle with behavior change is because they have been unsuccessful in the past. Three common reasons for this are 1) Setting unrealistic goals 2) Giving up after the first setback, or

3) Taking on too many changes at once.

To avoid these, it is important to set a narrow list of ridiculously small goals. This allows us to celebrate mini victories which perpetuate future successes. BJ Fogg, a researcher at Stanford University, recommends starting with what he calls “Tiny Habits.”

He uses an example for someone who wants to develop the habit of flossing their teeth.

He suggests flossing one tooth each night after brushing your teeth. Just one tooth. A small, simple act is perceived as more doable and we may be more likely to persist and build on that activity. This is a very real characteristic of human nature

and it explains a lot when it comes to why behavior change is so difficult.

To summarize, there are some tricks to successful behavior change: • Become aware of what you want to change and why • Set SMART goals • Make changes that fit your personality, strengths and values • Start small (REALLY small) and build on your successes For more local health and wellness information, visit www.tillamookcountywellness. org or follow Tillamook County Wellness on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.
