Through a partnership with the Salishan Coastal Lodge, The Bay House Restaurant will soon move into the Cedar Tree room on the Salishan property to continue serving their signature dishes to locals and visitors alike.

The Bay House Restaurant moves to Salishan MAX KIRKENDALL newsguardeditor@countrymedia.net

Steve Wilson, Proprietor of The Bay House Restaurant, and David Hall, Managing Director of Salishan Coastal Lodge, have announced The Bay House Restaurant will be soon located at the Salishan Coastal Lodge.

As part of a re-opening program this summer, Salishan Coastal Lodge and The Bay House Restaurant have a new collaboration underway. Wilson and Executive Chef Kevin Ryan will lease and convert the former Cedar

Tree event room into The Bay House, one of only three AAA Four Diamond award-winning restaurants in Oregon.

The relocation is expected to take place in July with a soft opening in early August.

For the past 41 years, the Bay House had been at the south Lincoln City property overlooking the Siletz Bay. On Jan. 22, the property was sold to Pelican Brewing Company.

For the past six months, the restaurant has been operating ‘The Bay House on the Hill,’ a 36-acre estate home overlooking the Siletz Bay and the Pacific Ocean in Gleneden Beach.

“Since selling our property on Siletz Bay in Lincoln City last fall, we have been searching for a suitable location to continue serving our loyal clientele,” Wilson said. “For over 40 years, The Bay House has enjoyed a strong connection to Salishan, its resort guests, homeowners, visitors to the Oregon

Coast and our local community.

“We are very excited to be able to continue our tradition of outstanding food, service, and hospitality as The Bay House at Salishan.”

The new Bay House at Salishan will feature beautiful views towards the bay, in a refined rustic room, showcasing timber-structure and the renowned Bay House wine list. Chef Kevin is already working on bringing back Bay House favorites.

“The Cedar Tree room in the Salishan Coastal Lodge has been a place for special occasions for years,” Hall said. “ In its early years, it was popular and known as The Summer Restaurant.

In more recent years, it has been used as an event space for weddings and other life celebrations. Watching the Cedar Tree room return to its restaurant roots, completes the circle, and embracement of new Salishan Coastal Lodge brand.”

Over the past week, the state of Oregon has reported more confirmed cases of COVID-19 than it did in all of the month of May. At a press conference July 13, Governor Kate Brown said that this is cause for concern, and she has decided to take more action to try to slow transmission of the virus.

“We’re here today to sound the alarm,” Gov. Brown said. “The COVID-19 disease is spreading rapidly across the entire state of Oregon and each and everyone of us needs to take action, immediate action to slow the spread of this disease.”

Gov. Brown made note of a few statistics during her opening remarks, including the fact that Oregon has not reported less than 100 cases in their daily report in over a month. Additionally, Gov. Brown stated that half of all cases are people under the age of 40 and one third are under 30.

“We have done so much, we have come so far, we have sacrificed so deeply… we cannot let this virus get the best of us,” Gov. Brown said. “We are at risk of allowing this virus to spiral out of control.”

Gov. Brown cited the rapid spread in several states across the United States such as New York and Texas. She alluded to the fact that Oregon may be heading toward that trend.

Red Flags Raised

“We were in shock, we were frightened, worried… every emotion you could think of, it was there.”

Those are the words from the mother of a family who just days before was allegedly harassed and targeted by a group of white men from Clark County, Wash. at a Lincoln City beach on the Fourth of July.

The mother of the family wished to remain anonymous as her family fears retaliation from the seven men who were cited and released following their arrest, but her identity was confirmed by the Lincoln City Police Department (LCPD). She has decided to speak out and give her recollection of the events that took place this past weekend.

They have become familiar with hotel staff and managers but are now starting to question their safety protocols following their

Around noon on July 4, the mother said she was at the front desk when she overheard an employee on the phone speaking to someone about bringing flags to the hotel. The employee told the caller that only American Flags were allowed on their property, the mother said.

“I thought to myself, well what was that about,” she said in an interview with The News Guard. “I said to (the employee), ‘I don’t even want to know what that conversation was about,’ and we laughed.”

The mother went back to her room and told her husband about the strange call and said she started to feel uneasy. About an hour later, her children began arriving to the hotel. While

“We actually received the 911 call from the neighbor, not the family inside the home, so we knew the fire had likely been burning a while.”

Heavy fire conditions were encountered from the front of the house, with doors already burned down and windows blown out. NLFR crews learned that two children and one adult had escaped the fire.

However, another adult female occupant was trapped inside.

“The adult who escaped the fire did so while removing the two small children, however he suffered severe burns and was transported to the Oregon Burn Center at Emanuel Hospital in

Devils Lake Manager receives national accreditation THE NEWS GUARD The Devils Lake Water Improvement District (DLWID) recently recognized Lake Manager, Josh Brainerd, as a newly accredited Certified Lake Manager (CLM) from the North American Lake Management Society (NALMS).

This prestigious accreditation recognizes managers around the country who exemplify exceptional training and experience in lake ecology.

Thanks to Brainerd, DLWID has successfully implemented water improvement projects including a new aeration system, dredging of the D River and successful removal of invasive species that have haunted the lake for many years.

“I am very excited to receive my CLM accreditation,” Brainerd said. “The

Josh Brainerd, DLWID lake manager. training and skills you gain from the accreditation process is rewarding. Not only does it increase my skills and education, but it also puts DLWID on a national platform. Devils Lake will be seen as a progressive leader in lake management across the country.”

Brainerd received

his Bachelor’s Degree in Environmental Biology from Illinois College in 2005. After graduating, Brainerd began his career at the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources as a hydrogeologist. From there, he transitioned into working for an environmental services company

called HEPACO. After a few years of successfully managing both large and small environmental projects for various companies, Brainerd decided to accept a position with DLWID as their new Lake Manager.

Brainerd moved to Lincoln City in 2016 where he has become a local community leader serving as a city planning commissioner and Chamber of Commerce board member.

Brainerd said he is delighted to continue his career journey as a Certified Lake Manager, and looks forward to sharing his leadership skills, along with developing new skills, with the North American Lake Management Society.

The North American Lake Management Society (NALMS) was founded in Portland, Maine, in 1980 as an organization with

membership open to both professionals and citizens interested in applied lake management, while other organizations focused on either one or the other.

One of the primary focuses of the organization in its early years was the funding of Section 314 of the Clean Water Act, the Clean Lakes Program.

The Clean Lakes Program provided funds, through the states, to clean up individual lakes.

NALMS actively supported EPA funding appropriations and implementation of this program, but dedicated funding for the Clean Lakes Program ended in 1994, creating financial challenges for lake management activities.

In 1989, NALMS established its certification program, which recognizes members with special

training and experience in lake management.

Certified Lake Managers (CLMs) are directly involved in managing lakes and reservoirs, including their watersheds, and have satisfied the NALMS requirements intended to properly perform the above duties with maximum competency.

In 2003, the program expanded to include Certified Lake Professional (CLPs) for those members who are also involved in managing lakes and reservoirs but focus on providing the critical technical or socioeconomic data used in making decisions that affect the quality and use of these water bodies.

For more information, please contact DLWID via phone at 541-994-5330 or email Lake.Manager@ DLWID.org. Or, visit www.

Fish and Wildlife Commission adopts Climate and Ocean Change Policy

THE NEWS GUARD

The Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission adopted a new Climate and Ocean Change Policy July 10 on a unanimous vote, making them the first state fish and wildlife commission in the nation to adopt such a measure.

The Policy approved will be the framework under which ODFW will evaluate the impacts of climate change on the resources under its stewardship, adopt management practices to safeguard those resources and minimize the impacts to communities that depend on these resources.

The Policy also includes an ambitious goal for ODFW’s operations to reach carbon neutrality by mid-century.

“I am proud that our agency is out front with this. We’re leaders. It’s causing other states in the U.S. to look at us in developing their own climate change plans,” said Commissioner Greg Wolley during the hearing and testimony portion of Friday’s meeting.

The policy aligns the Department with direction from Governor Kate Brown’s Executive Order 20-04, Directing State Agencies to Take Actions to Reduce and Regulate Greenhouse Gas Emissions.

The Policy provides high level guidance on how climate change will be considered in planning, budgets, investments and policy making decisions as required by the Executive Order.

Throughout the past two years, ODFW staff drafted the current policy and submitted multiple drafts for public review.

Staff considered public comments to help shape the policy and conducted multiple listening sessions both in person and virtually to gather feedback. During and in advance of Friday’s meeting, the Commission heard from constituents in support of the policy; many were anxious to see the principles of the Policy implemented by the Commission.

The adoption of a climate change policy by a state fish and wildlife com-

All your home improvement needs

mission is a first in the U.S. that ODFW is aware of.

“Our fish and wildlife are already feeling the impacts of climate and ocean change. The folks that hunt, fish or depend on healthy populations for their livelihoods are already feeling the impacts,” said Curt Melcher, Director, ODFW. “There is a lot we can do to minimize the impact of

climate and ocean change in Oregon and this policy lays out our strategy to do the work needed. The good news is that by taking actions to protect fish and wildlife, we also protect clean air and water for all Oregonians and the natural resources that many other industries depend on. We are all in this together,” added Melcher.

ODFW will evaluate the impacts of climate change on the resources under its stewardship, adopt management practices to safeguard those resources and minimize the impacts to communities that depend on these resources.

During their meeting today, the Commission also amended regulations for commercial coastal pelagic species (Pacific sardine) to be consistent with federal guidelines. These regulations will continue the commercial fishing closure that began in July 2015 due to a large decline in Pacific sardine biomass, but a few small scale, limited sardine fisheries will continue.

of the review of trap check regulations and on beaver management in Oregon they initiated last month.

More discussion about the scope of the review and the individuals involved is planned for the coming months.

Finally, the Commission approved ODFW’s proposed 2021-23 Agency Request Budget with some minor adjustments. They strongly endorsed ODFW’s planned creation of a Habitat Division to have specific responsibility for habitat and strengthen ODFW’s commitment to habitat restoration and improvement.

The budget does not include any fee increases on sport or commercial licenses in this budget cycle.

While 2021 would typically be a year to raise fees to take effect in 2022 (because the department adjusts fees every six years), ODFW is pleased to be in a position to delay this and not request any fee increase of hunters, anglers or commercial fishermen until 2024 at the earliest.

The budget will now go to the Governor and then the 2021 Legislature for final approval.

OCCC Changes: More classes in Waldport, a dose of medicine for Lincoln City THE NEWS GUARD

More choices for South County residents

South Lincoln County residents who’ve never had cause to visit the South County Center of Oregon Coast Community College may soon be winding their way down Crestline Drive, on their way to classes in photography, history, writing and more.

For the past eight years, the Center has been largely devoted to two main programs, Nursing Assistant and Medical Assistant. Beginning with the upcoming 2020-21 school year, however, the Center will be hosting a variety of new courses and meetings.

Medical lab moving from South to North “Shortly after the South County Center was constructed in Waldport, it became home to our Nursing Assistant and Medical Assistant Programs,” said Birgitte Ryslinge, president of OCCC. “The high-tech sim lab necessary for these programs filled more than half of the entire facility, and often required use of the one additional classroom located there.

“By moving these programs to the College’s North County Center in Lincoln City, we’re making those medical programs more accessible for North County residents while we’re also freeing up space for more credit courses, noncredit community education classes, and small business workshops for South County residents.”

The change will open up a variety of possibilities for the Waldport facility.

“In just the past few years, we’ve seen our lineup of noncredit community education courses grow from less than a dozen each term to more than 50,” said Dave Price, OCCC’s director of community engagement. “A few of these have been made available in Waldport, but too often it’s hard to schedule the time without interrupting the medical assistant or nursing assistant programs. Now, we’ll have greater flexibility and will be scheduling a much wider variety of courses. It’s likely we’ll be able to schedule additional credit courses and business workshops also.”

Before the coronavirus, more and more credit classes were being offered simultaneously in Lincoln City and Newport, in a “hybrid” model, with a classroom of students in one location with an instructor, while another group of students watch and participate live, via Zoom, together in a classroom in another campus.

This minimized travel time for students, along with other efficiencies.

“Now, hybrid classes like these may also be scheduled to include Waldport,” said Dan Lara, OCCC’s Chief Academic Officer. “That said, the ongoing Covid-19 situation will likely delay our ability to take full advantage of the additional classroom space in Waldport.”

Lara added that many classes for the Fall 2020 term are being offered online, to protect the health of students and faculty. He also said that there are some exciting plans being considered to use the location to greatly enhance the College’s ability to offer additional arts programming for students and the community at large, including credit and non-credit options.

Have scrubs, will travel Linda Mollino, director of OCCC’s Health and Human Services Careers, said her staff is excited to reach out to a new population of potential students through the relocation of the medical programs from the South to the North.

“Our Medical Assistant and Nursing Assistant programs aren’t just a fast-track to good jobs, often for folks just out of high school or people looking for a career change. But, they’re also an important first step for some who decide to pursue a Nursing degree here at OCCC. Many have followed that path, and then gone on to pursue a bachelor’s or master’s degree in nursing. These assistant programs can be a critical launching point,” she said. “We’re proud we were able to offer those programs in Waldport for the past eight years, and we’re glad we can now make them available in Lincoln City.

And, as before, we’ll welcome students from every corner of the county.”

The College offers two-year transfer degrees, Associate Degrees, and a variety of degree and certificate programs in Health and Human Services, Business, Teaching, and Aquarium Science.

LCSD awarded $222,750 through ODE Promise Fund THE NEWS GUARD Last week, the Oregon Department of Education Early Learning Division notified the Lincoln County School District that they will be awarded a total of $222,750 in the initial round of funding of Preschool Promise grants, which were part of the Student Investment Account application process.

These funds will allow the District to offer 18 slots in their early childhood learning programs to families who are within 6 feet 200 percent of the Federal Poverty level for this upcoming school year. This 2 meters is less than the original grant request, but it will go far to help several families in need of support and quality education for their children.

Lauren Sigman, Early Learning Coordinator, helped to prepare the grant request and oversees the Early Learning Programs for the school district.

“We were hoping to 6 feet all 48 slots we receive applied for, as we know

there is a major shortage of preschool and child care in our county, and a need to provide these services free or at minimal cost to working families,” Sigman said. “We are excited to be able to receive the 18 slots this year and next year so that we can begin serving families and children who will benefit from having access to free preschool in our programs.”

Lincoln County School District applied for the Oregon Department of Education’s Preschool Promise grant which provides funding to child care providers so the providers are able to offer free Preschool slots

to families who are at or below 200 percent of the Federal Poverty line.

Initially, the District applied for 48 slots which would have allowed the District to offer 12 spots at each of our four district-run Preschool programs (Lincoln City, Newport, Toledo, and Waldport).

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the effect, it will have on the state’s revenue stream the Oregon Early Learning Division delayed the award of the grants from June 4 to July 2 and will6 release feet them in tiers of funding over the next two years.

BIRTH Carrie and Luke Benafel from Lincoln City would like to announce the arrival of their son, Noah Joseph Benafel.

Noah was born at 1:59 p.m. on July 8, 2020, at Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital. He weighed nine pounds and was 20 inches long.

Celebrating his arrival are grandparents Mike and Joanna Mack of Lincoln City, Ken and Susie Baca of Lincoln City and great grandparents Betsy Woods of Lincoln City and Ed and Gladys Tase of Burns.

Response to ‘An open letter to Oregonians’ I want to thank Ms. Lambrecht for bringing to our collective awareness the challenges of mask wearing by some who have experienced sexual and/ or physical abuse and assault.

Her letter has broadEnough Education, Enforcement is a Must Unlawful activities in north Lincoln City surrounding the July 4th holiday were a disaster of illegal fireworks.

For several nights preceding the 4th and for a week after, our neighborhood withstood hours of exploding “bombs” and illegal fireworks which shook houses, terrified pets, woke sleeping babies, and filled the air with sulfurous smoke, often until 2 a.m. This area

A letter to Police Chief Jerry Palmer We write to you with grief over the deplorable situation that took place on the beach near Spanish Head on July 4, 2020. We were appalled to learn of the display of hate, racism, and violence right here in our community.

More powerfully, we write of our gratitude that the Lincoln City Police Department responded

ened my perspectives.

I’m saddened to hear of such challenges and wish affected persons well in their journeys to strengthen resilience and coping.

The situation highlights the difficulty in balancing the needs of those with experi-

ences of trauma with others who want and need to be protected from non-mask wearers who inject potentially harmful germs into the air of confined spaces.

There is a reasonable solution: face shields.

Face shields do not directly the mouth,

nose, or face yet provide protection to both wearer and others.

Face shields are comfortable and non-confining. Although the science is mixed as to whether shields or masks are better (they offer different types of protection), it is clear

that face shields are better than nothing at all.

Face shields are now widely available for purchase online and through some retailers at affordable prices.

resembled a war zone, not a restful, beautiful beach community.

This lawless activity came after a 2 year city-directed educational campaign to let the out of town tourist trade know that illegal fireworks will not be tolerated in Lincoln City, and violators will be cited and fined.

This was to discourage out of town visitors who purchase illegal fireworks in other states, then rent VRD’s in Lincoln City in order to entertain themselves by setting off these

dangerous and exploding fireworks well past midnight.

Did our educational strategy work?

Judging by the antics this year NO it did not!

The problem has only increased, and the culture of coming to Lincoln City to set off these dangerous explosives only continues because the offenders know they won’t get caught or be cited in our city. Our enforcement procedures are minimal and untimely. These offenders come here from

other states and communities to behave in ways that would not be tolerated in their own communities, and they expect us to tolerate their illegal acts, arrogant attitudes, and rude behavior.

A major change in our city culture can only come about if residents demand that our Mayor, City Council, City Manager and Chief of Police find and deliver timely, effective enforcement techniques to these law violators.

We need our city lead-

ership to have the will and courage to stand up to these selfish bullies, protect our beautiful coastal city from the disrespect of those who only come here to violate the rights of our residents and law abiding visitors, and abuse our environment by entertaining themselves with exploding illegal devices.

to the situation, swiftly, effectively, and professionally. The officers on scene protected the families from a dangerous threat and showed a level of professionalism that other communities yearn for. Your handling of the situation is to be applauded. As we have seen in other situations, this could have turned out very differently.

The image of officers forming a protective shield around the family

is powerful and one that will long be with us. The officers put themselves at risk for the sake of others in an extremely dangerous situation which was fueled by alcohol and explosives and racism.

We are so thankful that your training, leadership, and commitment to your calling led to a simply terrible situation and not a horrific one.

We are thankful for the aggressive approach the District Attorney’s

office is taking to prosecute the alleged offenders and to treat this incidence as a hate crime. We acknowledge assistance from Toledo, Newport and Depoe Bay law enforcement. Our gratitude extends to all these fine folks.

As we first read of the situation in the media on Sunday morning, we were awakened to the reality that such things happen in our own backyard. We know the perpetrators in

this incident were from out of town, but we are also aware that elements of hate and racism are present among residents.

We commit ourselves to work as partners with you in continuing to move Lincoln City forward, to be a community of respect, safety, and justice.

IN MEMORY Robert Allen McKevitt Sr. Robert (Bob) Allen McKevitt Sr. passed away June 16, 2020.

Bob was 94 years old passing away at North Lincoln Hospital after experiencing a fall.

Bob lived in his beloved Lake House on Devils Lake in Lincoln City until his passing just as he always desired.

Bob was born in Pocatello, Idaho January 27, 1926 at 3:00 a.m., the second son of William Allison McKevitt and Lena Regina Thacker. Bobs brother was William (Bill) James McKevitt whom passed in 2006.

Bob married his high school sweetheart Lillian (Tiny) Yvonne Jonsrud in Eugene where they both graduated from high school. Bob enlisted in the Army Air Corps during WWII and became a radio technician.

When the war ended he returned to Eugene reuniting with Tiny and they moved to what was then Oceanlake on the Oregon Coast to partner with his older brother Bill to manage the 6 movie theaters

located in Oceanlake, Taft, Newport, Toledo, South Beach and Waldport.

Their father William Allison passed away when they were just teenagers.

While they were serving the country their mother Lena adeptly operated the theaters. Eventually the brothers separated the theaters between them.

Bob took possession of the “Lakeside” in Oceanlake and the “Lincoln Theater” in Taft as well as the South Beach Drive-In Theater.

When television became available and in wide use the theater business began to declined, the true entrepreneur Bob was he turned the Taft Theater into “Linco” supply warehousing and serviced the hotel/motel and restaurant business up and down the Oregon Coast with cleaning supplies, paper goods and any other commodities they might use wholesale by the case.

While managing all these businesses Bob also managed to play golf. An avid golfer all his life he enjoy traveling throughout Oregon to play in tournaments bringing many trophies home as well as several “Hole in One” golf

He played actively until he was approximately 84 years old and even then he didn’t outright quit playing, he would meet his friends at Tee time and play maybe 8 holes, then 5 and then 3 holes before he finally put his clubs away.

Even though he wasn’t going around the course with his friends he always met them on the 19th hole to hear their stories of the day’s game and keep up with the gossip.

It was well known that whenever he was needed for any emergency he could be found somewhere on the golf course and the Pro Shop would dispatch carts to find him.

Bob was a proud charter member of the Oceanlake Elks lodge, a very social man he enjoyed making new friends and cherishing his long time acquaintances.

Among the special people that were touched

by Bob’s life were friends of his son’s who always remained loyally by his side, kept him company and enjoyed his story’s.

The family especially thanks Joe and Jana McFarland for their friend-

ship care and concern and looking out for him.

Friends that grew up with the lake house water skiing and sailing from dawn to dusk. Bob and Tiny opened their home to everyone.

Bobby Fisher was another very special person in Bobs life and he would light up whenever “Fisher” would stop by. To everyone that was blessed by Bob’s company his spirit will always be with them.

Bob is survived by his youngest son John William McKevitt, four grandchildren Jennifer Draphel, Jill Perks, Christine James, Tiana Bosma and 6 greatgrandchildren Jesse James, Kai Perks, Aja Perks and

Wyatt Bosma.

Preceding Robert’s death were: Lillian (Tiny) Yvonne wife (67 yrs old) 1989, Robert Allen McKevitt Jr. eldest Son (57 yrs old) 2006, Keith W. McKevitt Grandson (33 yrs old) 2008, Ruth Schaffer Partner (96 yrs old) 2019.

No service is planned.

At Bob’s wishes his ashes will be spread over the Eagles nest where his wife Tiny and Son Robert Jr. will always look over the lake and the family home.

If you wish to send flowers and celebrate Bob’s life he would like the North Lincoln Hospital.

The News Guard Roll’s Back the Tides The News Guard staff has Rolled Back the Tides this week to share what our reporters were covering 70, 50, 20, 10 and 5 years ago this week.

Read some of the snapshots in time from your local newspaper below.

20 Years - 2000 Generous Business help The News Guard raise $1,165 for Connie Hansen Garden, more to come from cookie sales THANKS TO THE GENEROSITY OF THE BUSINESSES FEATURED ON THIS Page. The News Guard will be donating $1,165. The total coast of the ads, to the Connie Hansen Garden.

The money raised during the first two days of the Garden Festival

70 Years- 1950 Klondike Kate, famous “queen of the Yukon” in the gold rush days of ’98, will be featured guest in the big aqua Festival parade Saturday night.

2000, the yearly main fund-raiser for maintaining the garden, was stolen, the garden house vandalized and the cookies for the event destroyed.

In addition, the money raised through these ads, homemade cookies will be on sale at The News Guard Wednesday through Friday of this week, with all proceeds also going to garden New store owners love their jobs. See Picture.

Although it has been four months since the discover of the much-discussed De-lake sea monster, speculation as to the origin of the “thing” has continued daily, with new developments and explanations turning up from many points of the country.

Ways and means of getting the road leading up to the new high school building rocked before the fall rains set in was one of the main topics discussed Friday night at the meeting of Taft City council.

Common ads found in The News Guard from the 1950s.

Coronation of the queen of the 1950 Devils Lake Regatta by the Devil of Devils lake will be one of the highlights of the Saturday night show. Immediately following the coronation will be the Aqua Frolics Of 1950.

50 Years - 1970 Antique car show Yesterday will be featured at pixieland Saturday when 50-time machines-better known as antique automobiles -will be displayed .

Members of the historic auto club of Oregon will display their now unusual vehicles between 12 and 1 p.m. and admission will be free.

No $$ for paid mayor or manager The city went again on record Wednesday as assuring voters there will be no paid mayor during the 1970-71 budget.

Mayor Ross o. Evans, reacting to what was felt might be one reason for three budget defeats, said “any action this paid mayor or city manager proposal will take place a reasonable time before the 1971*72 budget year, but reiterated “there will be no such position the 1970-71 Creation of a paid may had been suggested during the final budget session in June, and the proposal was killed 4-3 by the council. But the city felt many voters believed the position might have been created anyway.

Then new owners of the Rose Lodge Store Mark ad Stephanie.

10 Years - 2010 RV traps man at Fogarty creek. See picture.

Rescuers used high-pressure air bags to free a man who became trapped under his RV at Fogarty Creek RV Park on Tuesday, July 6.

LT. Dennis Knudson of Depoe Bay Fire District said the man had been carrying out repairs to the underside of the vehicle when the supports collapsed,

Knudson said neighbors living in the park managed to lift the vehicle with hydraulic jacks to help the man breathe easier until the first fire units arrived at about 1:42 p.m.

Additional units responded from North Lincoln Fire & Rescue district #1 and Newport Fire Department.

Rescuers extricated the 52-year-old, who was transported by Pacific West Ambulance to Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital in Lincoln City and airlifted to Legacy Emmanuel Hospital in Portland. Knudson said the man is recovering well.

Restrictions From page A1

State health officials have stated COVID-19 is extremely contagious and can spread even before an individual starts to show symptoms. This is why Gov. Brown said people should always remember the three W’s: Wear a face covering, Watch your distance and Wash your hands.

The State has identified several hotspots through contact tracing. These include: Workplaces, assisted living facilities, nursing homes, prisons, social gatherings.

To address these trends, Gov. Brown announced two new steps to slow the spread. First, is a stated ban on indoor social gatherings of more than 10 people.

“I am mandating that social get togethers like pot lucks, dinner parties, birthday parties and book clubs that take place indoors cannot exceed ten people,” Gov. Brown said.

The new rule does not

impact businesses or churches at this time, Gov. Brown stated.

Additionally, there has been growing concerns of transmission at bars and restaurants nationwide. However, Oregon health officials have not seen a significant source of transmission in those businesses at this time, but Gov. Brown said they will be watching closely.

The second mandate is an expansion of the face covering requirement, which is already in place for indoor public spaces.

Starting July 15, face coverings will be required outdoors as well when an individual cannot maintain a six foot physical distance in public from others.

Gov. Brown said enforcement will continue to be reliant on businesses for face covering use and the state has set up a statewide enforcement task force for assistance.

“Throughout the reopening we’ve been concentrating on an education first approach,

helping businesses across the state to follow these rules,” Gov. Brown said. “Unfortunately not everyone is willing to work with us and sometimes our team needs to intervene in order to make sure all Oregonians are safe.”

The Oregon Liquor Control Commission (OLCC) along with the Occupation Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) visited 800 businesses over the Fourth of July weekend to make sure businesses were following the Governor’s guidelines. For businesses not following the rules there will be ‘serious consequences,’ said Gov. Brown.

Consequences will include citations, fines and ultimately closing down a business. The state is also working to develop additional safety protocols for businesses.

“We need to do absolutely everything we can to reduce transmission in ways that do not require us to close down

businesses again,” Gov. Brown said. “The proof here will be in the numbers. Either people will adhere to this requirement and become a positive force for stopping COVID-19 or I will be forced to take more restrictive measures… no one wants that.”

In her closing statements, Gov. Brown thanked Oregonians who have been following the current guidelines and encouraged them to continue doing so.

Oregon Health Authority Director Pat Allen and state epidemiologist Dr. Dean Sidelinger were on hand for the press conference and each spoke on new modeling that was released last week. The newest modeling shows the continuation of a concerning trend of rapidly spreading COVID-19 throughout Oregon. Cases are rising at a rate so high, that even a 10 percent reduction in cases would not slow the rise in cases.

Allen noted that cases are expected to triple in the next six

weeks at the current rate.

“This means more people will get sick, more people will become seriously ill and our healthcare system is at risk of becoming overwhelmed,” Allen said.

Allen and Dr. Sidelinger each advised Oregonians to continue limiting the size of gatherings; move activities outdoors, maintain six feet of physical distance between people; wear a face masks; practice good hand hygiene and stay home if you are sick.

“Reopening the state does not mean going back to the way things were before, it means doing more things than we could during shut down, but having to do them differently,” Allen said. “We all want life to return to normal… but we cannot let COVID-19 get out of control in Oregon and overwhelm our healthcare system in the way we’ve seen it happen in other states.”

shals Office and the Lincoln City Police Department. Preliminary investigation reveals that the fire was not suspected to be criminal ignited.

“I want to thank all of our responders, the assistance from Depoe Bay Fire, Lincoln City Police Department, and our Dispatchers. It has been a tragic and busy 24 hours,” Dalhman said.

weekend.

“On the Fourth of July weekend, we didn’t have any calls for beach fires, which is extremely rare,” Dahlman said.

“Last year there was a young boy who had stepped on a buried fire on a Lincoln City beach and burnt his feet pretty bad. So this year we wanted to brainstorm some ideas on how to fix that problem.”

This year, NLFR decided to purchase plastic buckets and distribute them to beachgoers

in hopes they would use them to put out their fires as opposed to burying them, which is the usual culprit for accidents to occur.

“The buckets seemed to work in deterring people from burying them, but we did have an incident this past weekend, so we’re still looking for more ways we can prevent those injuries from happening on the beach,” Dahlman said.

oh no honey, we didn’t get that chance.”

“We started to feel better, we knew the police were not going to harm us, they were there to protect and serve,” the mother said.

The woman said she described to police the incidents leading up to that point, and the detective called for backup.

decided to leave town that night and her and her husband didn’t get a wink of sleep. The next day, the mother spoke with hotel management, who said those individuals had been a problem since check in. The mother said she was told they needed multiple hotel employees just to get them to cooperate for check in.

“I asked, well why would you do that if they were giving you problems? She told me, ‘well, they promised me they would be good.’ They manipulated her, manipulated people in the hotel, they were there to take over and do harm,” she said.

The mother said she is thankful that this incident didn’t have a different outcome.

“I told them, you are luckily that this was a hate crime that did not turn into a fatality,” she said. “For that, I am very grateful because that’s what it could have been.”

The mother said her family will not be returning to the hotel until there is a change in policy and protocols. The Inn at Spanish Head did not respond to The News Guard’s request for comment.

The mother said her family has been grateful for the support they have been shown after the incident. She received several cards and gift certificates from Chapel By The Sea, a local Pizza Parlor and the family was even contacted by a Lincoln City resident who offered up her property at the beach for them to use anytime.

The woman wanted to give a special shout out to LCPD Chief Jerry Palmer as well.

“He is doing a fantastic job training his officers to do the right thing,” she said. “I don’t want people of color to feel like they need to take the law into their own hands first. Let’s try to go the right route first. Call the police, pray on this and hope that they will do what Chief Palmer has trained his fine officers to do. They did a fantastic job and we are very grateful for them.”

The mother said LCPD and other local agencies are putting together a care package for their

family in hopes they will return to the coast and feel safe while visiting.

The seven men, who are facing charges of Rioting, Interfering with Police, Disorderly Conduct II, Harassment, Possession of Illegal Fireworks and Offensive Littering, were cited and released, but have not spoken with any media outlets since the alleged incident.

For the mother and the family who said they felt targeted because of the color of their skin, the mother said she hopes their story sheds light on what is going on, and that the outcome is not always predetermined.

“I’m going to speak for George Floyd and the rest of them because they can’t,” she said. “Out of all the protesting over the years, me and my husband, I’ll tell you, we haven’t been to one. There have been many times that we’ve talked about it and how we wanted to do something and get out and help, but we never did. Now that it’s being brought into my face, I’m not going to stick my head in the sand now.

“I hope this story brings more awareness to the situation, and people can see a different end result other than someone dying.

Whether their black, white, green, yellow or purple… I hope every situation like that can turn out the way ours turned out.”

An Oregon attorney named Ben Cox, who is not involved with the family, organized a GoFundMe page online for the family.

“I believe that after what this family went through, they deserve a Nazi-free vacation to make up for what happened to them in Lincoln City, and I believe they deserve whatever other support that people are moved to provide,” Cox wrote on the GoFundMe page. “Accordingly, I am raising funds on their behalf, and every cent contributed will go to them. On behalf of myself and the family, thank you sincerely for any donation you are able to make.”

After approximately 25 minutes, the fire was completely extinguished and NLFR crews began searching for the female.

She was found deceased in an area Dahlman described as unsurvivable due to the location of the fire. Fire crews stayed on site for the reminder of the night.

unloading their car, she said two men approached them.

“They saluted them with Nazi signs… they did that and said ‘Happy Fourth’ and started laughing,” she said. “My kids told us what happened, we thought, you know, that’s unfortunate but whatever. We’ll just keep an eye out and stay away.”

An hour and a half later, two of her kids went down to the vending machine. A couple of guys again approached them and told them to come to their party that night. When the kids declined, the mother said the men flipped them off and started laughing.

“This started to bother me as a mother,” she said. “I called down to the front desk and said to (the front desk employee) what my kids told me. They said, ‘oh yeah, I know who you are talking about, they have been giving us problems since yesterday.’ My mouth dropped. I didn’t know they were actually staying in the hotel.”

The mother said she was told by hotel staff that these guests had been shooting fireworks off their balcony, being loud, rude and obnoxious. They were given warnings, according the mother.

The woman, who was involved in property management for 13 years felt like more needed to be done.

“My skills kicked in and I started to remember the laws and the rules, and i said, this is what you do… you take security up there and tell these men that they are not allowed to harass the guests and if they continue, you kick them out like anyone else,” she said.

The woman was told by hotel staff the situation would be handled.

Between 3 p.m. to 4 p.m., the family began heading down to the beach. They had brought their own fireworks since there was not going to be an organized fireworks display in Lincoln City.

“My son was so excited to do it, but he never got a chance,” the mother said. “We’re there to have a good time, let our hair down, look at the beach, unwind and have some fun… but

Down on the Beach Around 5 p.m., from the beach, the mother recalls noticing several people come out of their hotel room, onto their balcony with two large flags. She said each flag was approximately six feet tall and read, ‘Trump 2020: Make America Cry Again.’

“They started waving these flags on the deck, they were yelling and screaming, ‘four more years of Trump,’ for about 20 minutes,” she said. “We were thinking to ourselves, this is not a Trump rally, what is going on here?”

The woman said some bystanders joined in on the chant, others countered with their own chants. It created a disturbance, she said.

At around 7:30 p.m., an estimated 10 individuals took to the beach while carrying their flags, setting off illegal fireworks and playing music from a large boombox that included songs about lynching and killing Black people, said the mother.

The woman said one of the individuals approached the father of the family and made a gun with his fingers and pretended to shoot him.

“I said, no, we’re not having this,” the woman said. “I got up and I went right back to the hotel and started to pray.”

The woman went back to her hotel room and called the front desk and explained what was happening. She was advised to call the police.

Police later arrived in their beach vehicles and began speaking with the group of men. More officers showed up, but none spoke to the family on the beach, the mother said.

“We got worried,” the mother said. “A few of us thought, are they going to try to turn the police against us? That’s exactly what they were trying to do.”

The family sent several of their kids back to their hotel room, then LCPD officers approached the family and allowed them to tell their side of the

Tensions Escalate As more law enforcement arrives, the mother said that the men became more rowdy and agitated.

“These guys started throwing sand our way and then one guy took a firework, lit it and tossed it in our direction and said, ‘that’s just a sample of things to come,’” the mother recalled.

The LCPD officers saw it all and about 15 officers formed a circle around the family as the group of suspects got closer.

“They had no reason to come after us, we were not engaging in any way,” the mother said. “We didn’t know if they had weapons, all we knew is that we were the only Black family on the beach and we were being targeted.”

The woman said several of the officers were then involved in confrontations and several racial slurs were yelled.

“One guy said to an officer, ‘I like the fine job you guys have been doing for us in the news lately,’ referring to the killing of George Floyd,” the woman said.

“It pissed me off, but I didn’t say anything because that’s what they wanted. They wanted us to engage.”

At that point, the woman said her family was advised to leave the beach for their own safety.

More officers headed to the beach, as nearly 30 were involved in the incident. From their balcony, the family watched LCPD make arrests.

“It was like a movie,” the woman said. “They got into formation and rushed those guys, put them on the ground and arrested them.”
