Otis Café to open in Lincoln City Taft location

MAX KIRKENDALL newsguardeditor@countrymedia.net

On July 4, 2019, the town of Otis suffered a crushing blow as the Otis Café caught fire, causing an indefinite closure. However, Café owners recently announced that lovers of their famous molasses bread and home style meals won’t have to wait much longer, as they plan to open a second location in the Taft District of Lincoln City. “We realized after the fire that we may need to open a second location, and since October we have looked at a number of places, but couldn’t find the right fit,” Otis Café owners Lynne and Jeff England announced. “In January, we approached our friends who own ‘My Master’s Antiques’ at 4618 SE Hwy 101, Lincoln City about purchasing their building. They agreed to sell us their property and are

Coronavirus in Oregon, three presumptive cases THE NEWS GUARD

Oregon health officials have identified a third presumptive positive case of COVID-19 among state residents. The third case is an adult Oregon resident from Umatilla County who is hospitalized in Walla Walla, Washington. State and local health officials are moving quickly to contact people who may have been in close contact with the individual who tested as a presumptive positive case. The third case is not linked to travel to a part of the world with known cases of COVID-19. It is considered a case of community transmission. “State and local health professionals are working around the clock to identify, treat and contain each case of this disease,” said Gov. Kate Brown in a statement. My commitment to Oregonians is that our state agencies will be as accurate, transparent, and swift as possible in conveying the information we have to the public, especially when new cases of the coronavirus are identified.” Preliminary reports indicate the Oregon resident attended a youth basketball game at a gymna-

sium at Weston Middle School, 205 E. Wallace St. in Weston, Ore., on Saturday, Feb. 29. Under federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Prevention (CDC) guidelines, other spectators who may have been in a closed environment with the individual would be considered “low-risk” exposures. Athena-Weston School District officials have closed the gym and will conduct a deep cleaning out of an abundance of caution. The gym is physically detached from the rest of the school. Health officials do not consider the separate school building to pose any risk of exposure. The test on the sample was performed by Washington’s public health laboratory. The case was one of Oregon’s pending cases. Oregon health officials have updated their case and testing reports on OHA’s COVID-19 web page. Oregon and Washington health experts are working together to determine if there are other locations where the individual may have interacted with other people in recent days, after symptoms of COVID-19 first appeared. Health officials will announce if

there are any additional locations where people may been exposed, if they are determined. People who may have attended Saturday’s basketball game can call the following numbers if they have questions. • Oregon residents can call 211. • Washington residents: • Washington State Department of Health: 800-525-0127, press # • Walla Walla County: 509-524-2647 The Oregon Health Authority had previously announced the second presumptive case of COVID-19 in Oregon. The second case is a Washington County resident who is an adult household contact of the initial presumptive positive case. The second adult did not require medical attention. The individual was identified as a contact of the first person during the public health investigation. The individual remains isolated at home. This presumptive positive test result was one of 9 total tests completed Sunday by the Oregon State Public Health Laboratory. Eight

LC Youth Cheer squads place first, second at championships MAX KIRKENDALL newsguardeditor@countrymedia.net

Capping off an already impressive youth cheerleading season, the Lincoln City squad strutted their stuff at the OCCA Cheerleading Championships for the first time in the team’s short history. And they proved they definitely belong there. On Sunday Feb. 23, the Lincoln City ‘Mini’ team and ‘Junior’ team traveled to the Salem Pavilion to compete amongst 30-40 other teams from around the state. The Mini team participated in the morning session that was a mixture of minis, youth and all-star teams. Overall, there were 30 teams that participated in different categories in the morning session before the first round of awards. The minis were placed in the ‘x-small’ division, which was made up of four competing squads. Among those four teams, the Lincoln City girls took first place overall. “They compete because they have worked hard developing, learning and perfecting a routine,” Director and Coach Tonia Ander-

This session was a mixture of junior teams that were in categories such as x-small, small, medium, large, xlarge, co-ed, super large and crowd leading. The juniors were placed in the junior x-small category along with

five other cheer squads with approximately 40 teams participating in the afternoon session. Similar to their minis, the juniors performed exceptional and garnered a second place finish in their division. “The significance for the two teams to compete was for the excitement of being there for the first time,” Anderson said. “These two

teams had a very successful season competing at several competitions across Oregon. Next season we are expanding our mini program and adding in a youth division so that our junior team can grow as well.” Anderson, Alicia Hernandez and Andy Anderson coach the team and throughout the season, the two squads competed in seven competitions

and placed in the top four each time. Anderson said a big key to their success has been the support from the Siletz Tribal Charitable Contribution Funding, who donated funds for practice mats. “Without the mats we would not have been able to have the opportunity to practice in full competition form,” Anderson said. Next year, the team is

looking to grow even bigger and become even more competitive. “Cheerleaders will have the opportunity of performing in individual categories and stunt categories as well,” Anderson said. “Our season ended on such a great note and we can’t wait to start again with open gym in April followed by team placements for the competitive season for 2020-21.”

LCSD’s new math materials available for public review THE NEWS GUARD

The Lincoln County School District (LCSD) Math Adoption Committee, which consists of middle school and high school math teachers, specialists, and administrators from Toledo, Waldport, Lincoln City and Newport has recommended a 6-year adoption of Houghton Mifflin Harcourt’s Go Math for grades 7-8th and Integrated Math 1, 2, and 3 for high school. This decision was made after researching recommended math instructional models, committee professional development around equity in mathematics instruction, and reviewing five different sets of instructional materials. All recommended sets of materials have hard copy accessibility and online platforms that provide additional resources and support to enhance the learning environment and support English Language Learners. “I am happy with this text because there are multiple tools provided to make sure our students are hitting the standards,” said Damian Huff, an advanced math teacher at Taft 7-12. “The web portion allows us to track student progress more in-depth, and provides tools for the students to be able to study or reteach outside the classroom.”

The materials are also aligned with Oregon’s 2+1 math vision that allows students to experience career-related math concepts. This model has students complete Integrated 1 and 2 before moving on a traditional route to Integrated 3 or branching off to courses such as probability and statistics, construction math, or computer science-related offerings. Secondary teachers at all schools will explore additional standards-based third and fourth-year math courses in the 2020-2021 school year in line with Oregon’s vision for expanding offerings in mathematics education. “The need for aligned math materials, instruction and assessment is clear in LCSD,” said Majalise Tolan, Secondary Teaching and Learning Administrator. “Through this adoption, we will be able to provide students and teachers with the tools they need to be successful mathematicians and develop the skills needed for college or their chosen career pathway.” Upon final approval and adoption of the materials, math instructors will begin preparation for implementation in the 2020-2021 school year by analyzing standards, developing course scope and sequences and unit plans, and will participate in ongoing professional development specific to the

Elementary teachers will begin the K-6 math adoption process in Spring of 2020 and continue throughout the 2020-2021 school year for 2021-2022 implementation. Materials are currently available at the Lincoln County Teach-

ing and Learning Center located at 1212 NE Fogarty in Newport for community review and feedback until March 9, 2020. Contact Majalise Tolan for more information at 541-265-4410 or by email at majalise.tolan@ lincoln.k12.or.us.

Missing fisherman found deceased in Newport THE NEWS GUARD

On Feb. 9, fisherman Norman Grant, of Crescent City, was reported missing in the Newport area. Newport Police Officers began an investigation and learned that Grant was last seen around 7 p.m. on February 8. Officers confirmed Grant was a crew member of the F/V Prolifik, which

was moored at the Hallmark Fisheries on the Bay Front. Phone records and local video confirmed Grant’s last known location was on Bay Blvd in the area of the F/V Prolifik. Officers searched the area and arranged for a dive team from Lane County to search the area surrounding the F/V Prolifik’s mooring. Search efforts revealed no

A local diver inspected the boat and found clothing entangled in the vessel’s prop. The diver checked the immediate area, and located

a human body about 80 feet south of the Hallmark Fisheries dock. The USCG, Lincoln County Sheriff and Lane County Sheriff’s Office Dive Team responded to assist. The body was recovered and transported to Bateman’s Funeral home, where the body was positively identified as Norman Grant.

Health Matters by Samaritan Health Services

Lifelong volunteer regains mobility after joint replacement

“I was visiting a friend in Vermont, and we went to a party where there were a lot of 1960s Peace Corps volunteers, and I remember just asking ‘well, what’s the age limit?’” As it turns out, there simply isn’t one.

Alice Carter has never been one to idly sit by without a volunteer project up her sleeve, so when she announced to her six children that she had joined the Peace Corps at the age of 86, surprise wasn’t their first reaction. “My kids thought for sure the Peace Corps would let me join, but would never send me away at my age,” Carter said with laughter. “They said ‘sure, Mom, join the Peace Corps so you can say you did.’ My little granddaughter just kept saying ‘No Peace Corps! No Peace Corps!’” But shortly after she joined the Peace Corps, she was invited to join a team of volunteers for a two-year mission in Morocco. Before she headed to Africa, Carter packed all her belongings and shipped them from Boston, Massachusetts, for storage in Corvallis, Oregon, where one of her children lived and she planned to retire after her mission. “I’d visited Corvallis a handful of times and just knew there was no better place to retire when I was done adventuring,” said Carter. Once in Morocco, Carter was welcomed by a host family and began a three-month training alongside other Peace Corps team members. “We were welcomed with open arms,” she recalled. “My host family insisted they cook for me, taught me about the local community and treated me as family.” As Carter became acclimated to the Moroccan culture and her role as an educator, she did her best to keep up with a variety of activities. Her

fellow volunteers encouraged her to join them on sightseeing adventures, and her active students kept her busy teaching everything from American and Moroccan history to creative writing and conflict resolution.

“One day, I asked them ‘would you like to climb Mount Toubkal?’” she recalled. “Of course they all did – it’s 13,000 feet plus a few more – so we gathered and began training for the climb by going on hikes every Sunday.” As Carter taught her group of 60 kids about leadership, cooperation and community, she noticed it became increasingly difficult to keep up with the adventures. So when it came time for the great climb, she had to watch her students tackle the mountain from the sideline. “My Peace Corps doctor begged me to go home and have my hip fixed, but I just wouldn’t,” she recalled. Despite her lack of mobility and extreme pain, Carter completed her mission in Morocco. Once home, her condition worsened to where she could only sleep in a recliner chair. She immediately began looking into getting her hip fixed. In March 2019, at the age of 90, Carter enlisted the help of James Ryan, MD, who replaced her hip at Samaritan Albany General Hospital. “They did a beautiful job. It was great to find myself in a quiet, private room and I loved the staff,” said Carter. After one night in the hospital, Carter returned to her home in Corvallis to focus on healing and planning her next endeavor. “My life isn’t about what’s happened to me medically, it’s about the work I’m doing for the homeless, for my church,” she explained as she pulled blueprints for her next community project

Alice Carter is thriving, thanks to joint replacement.

from a corner desk in her home. Carter returned to the hospital for a knee replacement in November 2019. Now recovered and ready for adventure, she recently traveled to Boston to study medical respite facilities for the homeless population. “I wanted to be top notch before traveling to Boston,” said Carter, who plans to bring her learnings back to Corvallis to continue her work locally. “My new joints give me the ability to work better for my community.” Learn more about Alice Carter’s story at samhealth.org/AliceC and about Samaritan’s orthopedic services in Newport and Lincoln City at samhealth.org/Orthopedics.

Hospital volunteering a win-win for hospitals, patients and volunteers alike Volunteering is a fulfilling act of generosity that benefits the volunteer and organization alike. For a meaningful volunteer experience, consider joining the volunteer programs at the Samaritan hospitals in Lincoln City and Newport. It is not necessary to have health care experience. “We are always in need of caring, compassionate volunteers to help us carry out our mission,” said Melissa Maxon, volunteer services coordinator at Samaritan Pacific Communities Hospital.

Samaritan has a variety of opportunities at its hospitals, ranging from gift shop clerk to patient greeter, from infusion courier to pet therapy. Each position gives volunteers the chance to impact patients and visitors, and several positions help the hospital auxiliaries raise funds for patient care services. Time commitment can start as little as a few hours a week delivering mail. “The time spent at Samaritan is very rewarding and builds long-lasting relationships in the

community,” said Sarah Lillebo, volunteer services coordinator at Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital. Both Lillebo and Maxon said the new hospital projects in Lincoln City and Newport have generated a renewed interest in volunteering — and there’s always room for more! Visit samhealth.org/Volunteer to find out how you can join the program.

When a positive test result occurs, state and local public health officials conduct what is known as contact tracing which is a way to identify and notify others who have been in close proximity to the person who has tested positive. Health officials continue to follow up with these individuals. Public interest and inquiries about COVID-19 have centered on the testing process. The following information is to help inform persons about this process: A presumptive case of COVID-19 was announced February 28. The testing process is two tiered. The first test is done by the Oregon State Public Health Laboratory and a second test to confirm is conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The results of the second (CDC) test have to be received on the presumptive case. Testing is only done upon request of a health care provider and is based on symptoms (fever, cough, shortness of breath), travel to an affected area and exposure to a person or persons who have traveled to an affected area. Testing only occurs in state public health labs and

The excitement of reopening the Oregon Coast staple has brought a buzz to Lincoln City. However, some locals have feared the original location will be forever lost. The Englands confirmed that is not the case. â€œWe are continuing to work with Gary Fromm, the owner of the Otis Junction, as we definitely want to be back in our old location,â€? the Englands said. â€œWeâ€™ve assured him that we still consider the location in Otis to be our first location, and hope to be back there some day and heâ€™s assured us that we are first in line to get back into the building once

to be caused by spontaneous combustion of kitchen waste. Jeff England has been the owner of the CafĂŠ for nearly 23 years and cooked at the popular coastal hub for over eight years prior to his ownership. For him, the Otis CafĂŠ is much more than just an old building that was constructed in the 1920s. â€œI met my wife at the counter here, three of my four sons work for me in the cafĂŠ... My second son is my lead baker and his wife is a waitress, my oldest is my lead cook and manager,â€? Jeff told The News Guard back in July. â€œThis is a true family business.â€?

at the CDC. The Oregon State Public Health Laboratory has materials to process up to 80 tests a day and is building surge capacity if needed. Supplies are on hand to perform approximately 1,500 tests; and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has pledged to replenish Oregonâ€™s capacity as needed. Because the current presumptive case of COVID-19 is affiliated with a local school, the Oregon Health Authority and the Oregon Department of Education partnered to create an â€œInformation for Families and Schoolsâ€? Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) document. Additional updated information, including daily tracking of Persons Under Investigation (PUIs) and Persons Under Monitoring (PUMs) is available atÂ www. healthoregon.org\coronavirus. The public is encouraged to find additional information through these resources: â€˘ 211info â€˘ Facebook.com/oregonhealthauthority â€˘@OHAOregon â€˘ CDC On Wednesday, February 27, Oregon Governor Kate Brown launched the Coronavirus Response Team (CRT). The Oregon Health Authority and state agen-

cies have worked through the weekend to address the spread of this new disease. The response team is tasked with coordinating state and local agencies and health authorities in preparation for response to the coronavirus, also known as COVID-19. OHA continues to recommend all people in Oregon take everyday precautions to prevent the spread of many respiratory illnesses, including COVID-19 and influenza: â€˘ Cover your coughs and sneezes with a tissue and then throw the tissue in the trash. â€˘ Wash your hands often with soap and water for 20 seconds. If soap and water are not readily available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol. â€˘ Avoid close contact with people who are sick. â€˘ Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands. â€˘ Clean and disinfect surfaces that are often touched.

â€˘ Take care of your health overall. Staying current on your vaccinations, including flu vaccine, eating well and exercising all help your body stay resilient. â€˘ Consult CDCâ€™s travel website for any travel advisories and steps to protect yourself if you plan to travel outside of the US. â€œOregonians have a history of bringing out the best in each other in uncertain times,â€? Brown said in the statement. â€œBy staying calm and, yes, by doing the same simple things that protect us during cold and flu seasonâ€“â€“washing our hands, properly covering our coughs and sneezes, and staying home from school or work if weâ€™re feeling sickâ€“â€“we can help keep ourselves and our loved ones healthy and safe.â€? Most people with COVID-19 have mild symptoms. If you are feeling sick with mild symptoms and do not need to see medical care, stay home while you recover. If you are sick and plan to seek care, please call before going in for care so

arrangements can be made to prevent exposing others. For urgent medical needs, call 911. The Oregon Health Authorityâ€™s COVID-19 incident management team has been working with state agencies

Taft has historic weekend at State Tournament MAX KIRKENDALL newsguardeditor@countrymedia.net

Taft 7-12 wrestling coach Robb Ellis took a young group of five to the State Tournament this year, not sure what to expect. What he and the rest of the state saw was something that exceeded everyone’s expectations. The ‘Five Alive,’ as they’ve been dubbed, took to the OSAA State mats on Feb. 28-29 at Veteran’s Memorial Coliseum in Portland. The Tigers pitted Riley Ellis, Jose Flores, Jace Phippen, William Calderon and Arnoldo Ortiz against a competitive 3A classification. Wrestling at 113 pounds, Flores started off the tournament with a bang for Taft, upsetting top seeded Asher Hall from Irrigon (12-7 decision) in the quarterfinals “He dominated the match and really turned a lot of heads,” Ellis said. Flores kept the momentum going by easily defeating Caleb Perez of Santiam Christian by a 13-4 major decision to advance to the finals. In the finals, Flores met a familiar opponent in Blake Runion of Amity. Both juniors, Flores and Runion have formed a friendship over the years and it was fitting that Flores’ incredible tournament run would be capped off with a battle against a district foe. “In recent matches he had easily beat Jose,” Ellis said. “Jose went into the finals match with nothing to lose. We came up with a good game plan for stopping the Amity wrestler’s offense and it worked. The match was very close and Jose had the Amity wrestler on his back twice and kept the score close.” In the end however, Runion earned a 16-9 decision after scoring a couple of late points in the final seconds of the match. “Jose wrestled with a lot of heart and really attacked his opponents,” Ellis said. “Other coaches and the crowd were shocked and he drew a lot of compliments from his opponents.” In the 152-weight bracket, Riley Ellis was forced to prove his worth after being somewhat overlooked among a competitive field of wrestlers. Riley drew a tough first match against Kyler Wells of Sutherlin, who carried a 27-3 overall record and had beat Riley earlier in the season. This time around, Riley was dominant and pinned Wells in just over two minutes of work. For Coach Ellis, it was not only a proud moment for him as a coach, but as a father as well.

NEWS GUARD PHOTO/MAX KIRKENDALL

Unable to compete in the finals due to a concussion, Riley Ellis earned a second place medal at state. “I am super proud of my son Riley,” Coach Ellis said. “He greatly improved as the season went along. His brother Joe, one of our assistant coaches, deserves a lot of credit.” Joe was a talented wrestler in his own right as a former state qualifier. Joe however, never got on the podium at State because of injuries. This year he has served as Riley’s partner in the wrestling room. “Joe is older, stronger and about 10 pounds heavier, which made for the perfect partner for Riley,” Coach Ellis said. “They battled in the room over the season and sometimes the brothers even got heated but it was exactly what Riley needed when he had to face older and stronger seniors at state. His brother Joe pushed him to his limits in practice every day.” After his big win in the quarterfinals, Riley faced Anthony Moulton of Burns. A scary moment occurred early in the match, as Moulton lifted Riley in the air, planting him onto his head. The match was stopped and unnecessary roughness was called on Moulton, which resulted in a point for Riley and disqualification for Moulton. Riley advanced to the finals, but was declared to have a concussion and was medically ruled out for the tournament, resulting in a second place finish. “The Burns coaches were upset, because they felt like their guy was better than Riley,” Coach Ellis said. “But in the end their wrestler lost his next match and didn’t place, so

After a couple of upset victories, Jose Flores advanced to the finals before losing a close match. round pin in the quarterfinals. He then went to the semifinals against a Dayton wrestler who beat him at districts. “Jace wrestled much better this time and kept the match very close but ended up losing,” Coach Ellis said. “His next match to try and place was against the 2nd seed who was upset earlier from Brookings-Harbor. Jace fought very hard and only lost 5-2. He came up just short of placing 4th. Jace will be missed he has had great work ethic.” As a team, Taft placed 10th overall among 3A schools thanks in part to the 27 combined points from Flores and Riley. The final result gave Taft their highest finish in team history after setting the record at 16th last year. “A goal of mine as a coach was to get Taft in the top 10. I thought we had another year or two before we could accomplish that but the ‘Five Alive’ proved me wrong,” Coach Ellis said. “At state, you have to clear your head with all the adrenaline and not think about losing and just wrestle hard. Our wrestlers did a great job of keeping clear heads, which is hard to do. They outperformed some wrestlers who on paper should have been better than them. This is the first time Taft has had two wrestlers make the state finals in the same year. “We are building and will hopefully get better and better. I want to thank my assistant coaches Josh Liner, Jim Rodriguez and my son Joe Ellis for all their hard work. It took a group to make it happen.”

Riley was justified. He earned his placing.” Other Taft wrestlers who fell short of the finals included Arnoldo Ortiz at 126 pounds, William Calderon at 145 pounds and Jace Phppen at 285 pounds. Ortiz, a two-time state qualifier, faced unbeaten Gabe Vidlak of Cascade Christian in his opening match and was ultimately pinned. He then faced a tough wrestler from Burns and lost a very close match, ending his weekend on the mat. Calderon also drew tough opening bouts. He dropped his first match to the top seeded wrestler before winning by default in his next two matches. Hoping for a podium spot, Calderon suffered another defeat in his final match to Cody Havniear of Cascade Christian. “This year the OSAA took away 5th and 6th place for 3A, otherwise he would have placed again,” Coach Ellis said. “William struggled through a bad ankle injury and missed a month of competition. When this happens to a wrestler it is very hard to get back in the groove and compete against other wrestlers who have had more mat time. William gave it his all, doing extra conditioning at night after practice to try and get his cardio back before state. I wish I could have seen him wrestle at 100 percent at the state tournament.” In his final high school tournament Phippen had a weekend to remember. as a two-time state qualifier, Phippen upset the 3rd seed from Santiam Christian with a first
