next week. Bust out the birthday cake. âThis is a place where people come, and have been coming, for all these years; with many fairs closing, it is a testament of everyone who came before me,â said Camy VonSeggern, fair manager, as of Monday. Reflecting on the 125th anniversary, VonSeggern said tradition has played a large role with the TCF. âYou know you can count on certain things at the fair,â she said, âItâs something I donât want to change - the traditions. We can update it and make it fresh, but I donât want to mess with tradition.â Since 1891, the Tillamook County Fair has been an event for, most of the county, to gather annually and see friends and family they have not seen for the past year. However, problems in the years preceding the 100th anniversary of

the Tillamook County Fair threatened to derail the quality of the fair. Trouble in the 80s âTillamook County Fair was a success story,â said Jerry Underwood, who spent 20 years with the TCF, 1991 to 2011, mostly as the fair manager. â[It] had real problems in the late 80s.â Underwood said buildings had deteriorated and the county had stopped taking care of the grounds. âAfter the 1990 fair, the entire board quit.â Five individuals, spanning the entire county assembled to take the fair in a new direction. One of these individuals was Underwoodâs good friend. âIn March of 1991, Don Averill called and said âUnderwood, what are you doing?ââ What followed was Underwood using his skills with
finance to help budget with the new fair board, eventually taking on the role of fair organizer. The 100th fair, Aged to Perfection, was Underwood, and the new boardâs, first. He said it was a trial by fire. The group teamed with the Booster Club and local athletes to help with the man-power. After the first year, Underwood said the new board and he began really working with the community. A new direction âItâs been something beautiful to watch,â said Van Moe, former KTIL owner, âItâs one of the only things that bring north, central and south county together.â He added that Tillamook, in a sense, has three individual counties, due to its size.

Girl missing from Gales Creek found Emma Beggs, 13, of Aloha was lost overnight when camping with her family at Gales Creek Campground west of Banks, and has been found safe on July 26. On July 25, at 9:45 p.m., a family member called Washington County Sheriffâs Deputies to report their daughter went for a trail run and never returned. The family told Sheriffâs Deputies they were camping when Emma went for a three-mile trail run. The family said Emma is an avid trail runner and she left the campsite at about 6 p.m. but failed to return. Sheriffâs Deputies began an extensive search in this rugged secluded area. Washington County Sheriffâs Office Search and Rescue was quickly activated to help find Emma. At 8:52 a.m., she walked out onto a logging road after walking over nine miles of dirt trails. Emma was found by loggers who heard the media information about her missing. The loggers drove her to the Sheriffâs command post at Rogerâs Camp. She was dehydrated and hungry but otherwise in good health. Emma reported she continued to walk on the trail until it was light enough this morning to find her way to a road and be seen. The Sheriffâs Office would like to thank the media for getting the word out about Emma and the loggers who heard the information, recognized her and were willing to help.
Bay City couple brings flavorful fungi to market By Brad Mosher bmosher@countrymedia.net
Little Guy Mushrooms of Bay City started with an idea found on the internet and has started to expand into the local farmers markets at Manzanita and Tillamook. For Rob Little, the key to success is turning items like a log into an underground Petri dish for flavorful fungi. A lifelong interest in mushrooms was triggered again when he found a webpage on the internet. Since then, mushrooms have become an increasing part of his home life in Bay City. Now, he has created a âclean roomâ in his home and a separate outer building to help the mushrooms grow. At the markets, Little still focuses on building what he calls Mushroom logs that he sells for
$20, while also selling smaller packages of mushrooms alongside other produce. He also sells several varieties of mushrooms. While his wife, Blanca Turrieta, was busy with customers in the front of his booth at Tillamookâs Farmers Market recently, Rob was swabbing a liquid compound onto a large maple branch. âIâm inoculating these logs so that they can grow their own thing. We set them about a foot into the ground where it is nice and wet. These are the Pink Oysters and they will shoot out probably by October. âYou can inoculate stumps in your yard. You can do a lot of things with them. If you have got some trees in your yard that you are not particularly fond of, that you want to get rid of, you can drill the holes and inoculate them in a living tree for awhile.

Rob Little of Bay City works to prepare a log for customers to place underground in their gardens for future crops of mushrooms at a recent stop at the Tillamook Farmers Market. His company, Little Guy Mushrooms, sells produce and mushrooms at the local farmers markets, in addition to kits and logs which can be used to grow mushrooms.
âIt will kill the tree. Then, it will digest the tree,â he said.
