Serving Lincoln City Since 1927

Gov. Brown says “stay home, save lives’

Brighter Days Ahead

MAX KIRKENDALL newsguardeditor@countrymedia.net Oregon Governor Kate Brown asked Oregonians to stay home and be respectful of others before last weekend. The message didn’t seem to hold much weight as people flooded beaches and parks for spring break. On Monday, Brown said her Stay at Home order was necessary. “I was very clear,” she said. “I repeated that request saying that Oregonians need to stay home and that your actions effect other people and by using social distancing you can save lives and keep Oregonians healthy.” Brown said she was very frustrated after seeing the crowded Oregon beaches over the weekend. “I asked,” she said. “I directed them to stay home and now I am ordering them to stay home.” In issuing the order, Brown said she wanted to make sure it would work for all of Oregon, and that rural areas of the state could comply as well as the larger metropolitan areas. She said she reviewed what other states are doing and consulted with health officials. “The reality is that governors all over the nation are wrestling with how to do that,” Brown said. “We were able to learn from other states and watch the confusion happening there to form this order. I wanted it to work for all of Oregon and to be sustainable over the long-term.” The Governor said there is no timeline on how long the order will remain in effect. Brown said she hopes to see the outcome next week of social distancing measures that have been put into place to make a timeline decision. Brown also acknowledged that her order will have extreme far reaching consequences.

Despite the seemingly endless stream of news regarding COVID-19 (Coronavirus), we often lose sight of some of the more beautiful moments we see almost daily in the Lincoln City area. This past week our community faced many challenges and changes, but we also experienced a few sunny days that made us forget about what might be going on outside of Lincoln County. Did you happen to take any sunset photos this past week? We’d like to add them to our Coastal Moments section of our website.

Boating fatality occurs on Devils Lake over weekend THE NEWS GUARD

On March 21, at approximately 1 p.m., witnesses on the shores of Devils Lake in Lincoln City called 911 to report a person in the water and a boat attempting to retrieve them. Witnesses described the subject as being in distress prior to seeing him go under the water. North Lincoln Fire, Lincoln City Police and the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office Marine Patrol responded to the scene. North Lincoln Fire arrived and deployed their rescue skis. Rescuers con-

tacted two occupants in the boat and determine Steve Ton, 60, of Seattle, Wash., was missing and last seen going under the water. Rescuers located Ton approximately 15 feet under water and were able to retrieve him. Ton was transported to Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital where he was pronounced deceased. Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office Marine Patrol conducted an investigation and learned a 17 foot Alumacraft boat operated by Michael Mascio, 57, of Lincoln City, was operating offshore from

Holmes Park when the boat made a turn and crossed its own wake. During the maneuver, Ton, who was seated near the transom of the boat, fell overboard. Investigation revealed Mascio turned the boat around and motored over to Ton. Mascio left the controls of the boat and dove into the water. Mascio was unsuccessful in his attempts to rescue Ton. Mascio was also transported to Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital with nonlife-threatening injuries sustained during the rescue attempt.

During the investigation it was revealed there were two type III life jackets on board the vessel, but none in use during the incident. Mascio was issued a violation citation for insufficient number of personal flotation devices. The investigation determined there was no criminal conduct during the incident. Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office would like to thank North Lincoln Fire and Rescue, Lincoln City Police Department and Pacific West Ambulance for their assistance.

COVID-19 testing centers set up in Lincoln County MAX KIRKENDALL newsguardeditor@countrymedia.net

To prevent the spread of COVID-19 (Coronavirus) and enable testing, Samaritan Health has set up temporary testing centers in Lincoln, Linn and Benton Counties. Testing at these temporary locations will be done with a clinician’s order only. In Lincoln County, a testing center has been set up in Depoe Bay. Testing supplies and laboratory capacity are currently limited, according to Samaritan Health officials. Samaritan Health said they will prioritize testing to those with symptoms (fever, cough, shortness of breath)

and those who are part of the following groups of patients until supplies and capacity increases: - Patients older than 60 years of age - Patients involved in an illness cluster in a facility or institution, such as a nursing home, dormitory, group home, etc. - Health care workers - Patients in public safety occupations like law enforcement, firefighters, EMS Patients who have known coronavirus symptoms – fever, cough and/ or shortness of breath – are asked to call their primary care provider or do a MyChart “Coronavirus Concerns” E-Visit to be assessed

Samaritan testing will only be done with a clinicians order. and routed to appropriate care. Patients must call or do an E-Visit first in order to be assessed for approval of

appropriateness of testing. Patients who show up without a scheduled appointment will be turned away. Samaritan patients can visit

samhealth.org/MyChart to set up a MyChart account. Patients new to Samaritan may call 541-7687080 to set up an account. Patients without a primary care provider or those who are unable to access MyChart online may call 855-543-2780. If a test is ordered, the patient will be contacted to schedule a date, time and location for the specimen to be collected. A pilot temporary COVID-19 Testing Center was put in place last week in Lebanon to conduct testing for Veterans Administration care facility patients. The expansion of the testing centers will enable safe access for patients who need

testing throughout the communities Samaritan serves, officials say. “As a community, we appreciate everyone practicing social distancing and doing their part to build healthier communities together,” Samaritan Health officials said. A wealth of information about coronavirus, how to prepare and take care of your family, what to do if you feel ill, caring for family members at home and much more is available at the Oregon Health Authority and CDC websites or by calling 211.

Surge: Jobless benefit claims triggered by coronavirus JEREMY C. RUARK jruark@countrymedia.net

The number of initial unemployment Insurance claims filed in Oregon rose from approximately 800 on Sunday, March 16 to a total of 18,500 on Tuesday, March 18, according to Oregon Employment Department communications director Gail Krumenauer. “Although we know the COVID-19 coronavirus is causing a reduction in economic activity both nationally and in Oregon, it’s too early for unemployment rate or payroll jobs numbers to show the impact of these employment disruptions,” she said. “Employment Department staff will reach out to employers and affected workers filing claims to determine eligibility for Unemployment Insurance benefits, and continue to evaluate eligibility requirements and benefits on a case by case basis.” Krumenauer said the Oregon Employment Depart-

ment provides Unemployment Insurance (UI) benefits to most workers who are out of work through no fault of their own. To get benefits, workers must meet some requirements. In general, to claim and receive unemployment benefits for a week, workers must be available for work, able to work, and actively look for work they can do. Today the Employment Department enacted temporary rules to give more flexibility in providing unemployment benefits to COVID-19 affected workers. Unemployment insurance benefits are available during temporary layoffs related to COVID-19 situations. These benefits occur for employees whose employer stops operation for a short period of time, such as cleaning following a coronavirus exposure, or by government requirement. Workers can get unemployment benefits, and do not need to seek work with other employers if their place of employment will resume

operations. To receive benefits, affected workers must still be able to work, stay in contact with their employer, and be available to work when called back. A full resource guide with questions and answers about specific COVID-19 coronavirus-related situations and unemployment benefits is available at oregon.gov/employ. The site also has information for filing an online claim. Meantime, the Oregon Employment Department’s Systems and Economic Analysis manager Nick Beleiciks said the state has recorded record low unemployment in both January and February. The jobless rate of 3.3 percent is the lowest on comparable records dating back to 1976 and is below the U.S. unemployment rate of 3.5 percent in February. “It’s too early to have data showing the employment impact, but the response to COVID-19 is causing a reduction in economic activity both nationally and

in Oregon,” Beleiciks said. “It will be weeks before we can accurately quantify the extent of the damage to Oregon’s labor market.” Beleiciks said Oregon’s labor force data for February shows little impact from the spread of the coronavirus since the February unemployment rate is based on people’s activity during the week that included February 12. The monthly unemployment rate is always based on a person’s employment status for the week that includes the 12th of each month. By mid-February, there had been relatively limited economic impact from the disease in the U.S. In February, there were 69,000 unemployed Oregonians, which was the lowest number in more than 40 years. Total non-farm payroll employment rose by 3,100 jobs in February, following a loss of 300 jobs in January. Two major industries added more than 1,000 jobs in February: construction (+1,700

Oregon’s non-farm payroll employment increased by 26,600 jobs, or 1.4 percent, over the year since February 2019. In the past 12 months, transportation, warehousing, and utilities grew at the fastest rate of the major industries, expanding by 3,100 jobs, or 4.5 percent. Information also expanded rapidly, adding 1,100 jobs, or

3.2 percent, since February 2019. Construction (+3,000 jobs, or 2.8%) and other services (+1,900 jobs, or 2.9%) also were leading industries of growth over the past 12 months. Meanwhile, only one industry shed a substantial number of jobs since February 2019; manufacturing dropped 3,700 jobs, declining 1.9 percent.

history, says festival organizers. In announcing the decision, the Festival’s Board of Directors cited the necessity for acting preemptively to cancel the June events. “The health and wellbeing of our patrons, supporters, musicians and the community at large is the primary reason for making this difficult decision,” said the festival’s executive director, Jain Sekuler. “With pre-production scheduled to begin April 1st and the increasingly likely prospect that the crisis could extend into the summer months, it was imperative to act quickly.” The 2020 festival was to be a celebration of several key musical anniversaries: the 250th anniversary of Beethoven’s birth, the 100th anniversaries of the births of Dave Brubeck, Charlie Parker and Peggy Lee, and Stephen Sondheim’s 90th birthday. The Siletz Bay Music Festival’s 10th season in 2021 will mark the 251st birthday of Beethoven and all other anniversaries will be celebrated, one year late. In the intervening months, as public health concerns lessen, Siletz Bay Music Festival will find opportunities to bring world class music to the Oregon Coast with recitals and chamber ensembles performing in smaller settings.

School district creates alternative learning plans during closure MAX KIRKENDALL newsguardeditor@countrymedia.net

With the remainder of the school year still in question, the Lincoln County School District (LCSD) is working to find solutions to an unprecedented situation. Oregon Governor Kate Brown announced that schools across the state would be closed until at least April 28. Since the announcement, school districts statewide have been working to find solutions to several problems caused by the school closure. “Our main purpose right now is to feed our kids, provide them supplemental services and learning and to assist our students to graduate,” LCSD Superintendent Dr. Karen Gray said in a statement. “LCSD provided feedback to the Oregon Department of Education (ODE) on our seniors’ ability to graduate and ODE is reviewing the information this weekend from our feedback they have received. Guidance will be provided on this by early next week.”

As LCSD awaits answers on graduation, Gray detailed a new supplemental learning program that will begin on April 1. Supplemental learning activities will be available for all students, according to Gray. “These initial supplemental activities provided will not be ‘school,’” Gray said. “There will be no grades or credits associated with these supports and services. Some will be available online and some will be available in packets and folders. “As we move on under guidance from ODE, learning supports and supplemental services may take a different form in relationship to high school seniors but until additional guidance is released, the non-grade, non-required, non-credit provision applies.” In addition to the supplemental learning activities, LCSD will be allowing K-8 students and families to check out a Chromebook. One Chromebook will be available per household and students 9-12 already have the ability to take them home. A required form will

be available on all district websites, Facebook and via Remind on Thursday, March 26. The first Chromebooks will be available beginning Wednesday, April 1. Student meals have also been a heavy topic of discussion throughout much of the community. Gray said that buses will continue to drop off food via bus routes and in school parking lots Tuesday and Thursday of Spring Break, then return to the Monday through Friday scheduled drop offs on March 30. “Our hats are off to our Food Service and Transportation Partners who have been true champions, plus all of the staff and all of our volunteers,” Gray said. LCSD has also compiled a list of things for parents and kids to do during the school closure. These include: - Reading for fun. - Go on a hike. - Play at the beach. - Play games. - Watch funny movies. - Relax, sleep in. - Play music, sing and dance

State Parks close temporarily THE NEWS GUARD

At the direction of Governor Kate Brown, and in keeping with the guidance that all Oregonians should stay home and stay healthy, the Oregon State Park system will close at the end of the day Monday, March 23. Day-use areas will be closed starting March 23 at 5 p.m. Campers need to check out no later than 1 p.m. The Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD) previously ordered a campground closure that would have started April 3, and advised travelers to avoid day trips to full parks. With new guidance from the Governor, and clear signs that travelers are not following advice to avoid full parks, a statewide state park closure is necessary. Beaches can be closed by OPRD at their discretion and will be closed if social distancing practices are not followed. All daytime park services will be closed statewide, including parking areas and restrooms. Campers will be refunded for all canceled nights. All travelers are advised to follow the guidance to stay home to stay healthy. City and county parks and other public land managers are open at their discretion, with the recommendation they do so only if they can adhere to social distancing practices. “We would have preferred an orderly shutdown of the system and to remain open for daytime visits, but our concern for the effects on rural health care systems requires us to move up and

Chinooks Winds, Salishan, others halt business MAX KIRKENDALL newsguardeditor@countrymedia.net

Multiple coastal businesses have had to cese operations in the interest of health and safety during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Siletz Tribal Council and the Chinook Winds Senior Executive team, announced last week the closure of Chinook Winds Casino and Golf Course operations effective March 17. Chinook Winds Hotel will closed on March 18. The clo-

sure will be effective through the end of March. “As one of the largest employers in our community, we are committed to pay all team members through this announced closure,” CWCR stated. “We will keep the public and our team members updated on a reopen date, or the need to extend the closure. Essential staff will continue to secure and maintain the facility.” CWCR staff said they will continue to monitor developments through the Cen-

ters for Disease Control and the Oregon Health Authority. “Stay Home. Be Safe. The beach will be waiting,” CWCR said. CWCR staff and the City of Lincoln City have been fielding questions over the past few days regarding casino operations. The City stated today that all jurisdictions had been sharing information, questions and potential actions, which ultimately led to temporarily closing the properties. “Chinook Winds Casino

is, has been and I am confident will continue to be, a better than good community partner,” Mayor Dick Anderson said today. “As the largest employer in the County they have much more in the way of actions plans to put into place.” Shortly after the Chinook Winds announcement, the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde stated they will close Spirit Mountain Casino on March 18, 2020 and will remain closed through April 1.

“We pride ourselves as being a caring community who views every individual that walks through our doors as a member of the Grand Ronde family,” said Stan Dillon, Spirit Mountain Casino’s General Manager. “The Casino staff has done an outstanding job protecting everyone through preventative measures, but the continued growth of COVID-19 in Oregon has made this closure necessary.”

Salishan Shut Down On March 19, Salishan resort announced it would also be taking a hiatus until further notice. “With the health and well-being of our guests, team members and local community our priority, we have made the difficult but necessary decision to temporarily close Salishan Resort,” the owners announced. “It is our hope to reopen as soon as possible; May this time provide the space to tune into the mind, body and soul.

“My heart goes out to all the Oregonians, all of us frankly, that have been impacted by this horrible pandemic,” she said. Also on Monday, Lincoln County officials, including Lincoln City Mayor Dick Anderson, attended a special meeting to draft a resolution that all Lincoln County jurisdictions would ratify. This countywide resolution included the order to close short-term rentals such as hotels, B&B’s, vacation rentals, RV parks and private campgrounds to rentals less than 30 days. Over the weekend, Anderson said he fielded calls and emails from concerned citizens and knew something needed to be done. “Given that this is a global crisis there is a need to coordinate with regional, state and federal agencies,” Anderson said in a statement. “That is what Lincoln City doing.” The City and State closed all beach access points in Lincoln City. They also closed City Hall, the library, the Community Center and their open spaces and parks. At the regular scheduled City Council meeting on Monday, the council voted unanimously to ratify the county-wide resolution. “This resolution, along with the Governor’s order to stay

Beach access points throughout Lincoln City have been closed by the City and State to deter visitors from congregating. home will go a long way,” Anderson said. “Just closing shortterm rentals would not stop the day trippers and second home owners we have an abundance of here in our area.” This order will take effect upon adoption and no later than Wednesday, March 25. “We are all in this together and things are changing rapidly. We are trying to balance health issues and economic long-term issues to keep us all safe,” Anderson said. “Be serious about social distancing and be kind to your neighbors.” Also on Monday, Gov. Brown said the Oregon Employment Department has

waived “all of the regulations that they can waive” in order to get unemployment benefits out to Oregonians who have been impacted, that have lost their job, or have had to stay home because of the coronavirus. “We are working hard to get those resources out the door as quickly as possible,” she said Brown also announced that her team is having conversations with legislative leaders in preparation for a potential legislative session in the next week or so to continue efforts in Oregon. She also said the state is working with its congressional delegation for additional federal resources.

“So that we can provide direct assistance to our families, our households and to our businesses,” she said. Brown said businesses that are able to operate and that do not contribute to the spread of the virus can remain open. “What is so important that we focus on is, if you cannot telecommute and if you cannot socially distance safely, than you need to close down,” Brown said. “Obviously, there are exceptions. Groceries, health care, and public safety. We are trying to protect Oregonians.” Brown said the state is attempting to incorporate social

distancing and that is very challenging. “I am asking Oregonians to do their part and I am asking business to take personal responsibility,” she said. “I have been very clear that I am limiting travel to home, to work, to doctor, to essentials. I am confident that business owners around the state will do the right things and be creative and innovative in offering their services to Oregonians.” If businesses do not comply, Brown said they will be shutdown. “If Oregonians don’t comply, we’ll have to take the next step,” she said, without being

specific about what the next step would be. “I don’t want to do that,” she said. Under Brown’s order, violation would be considered a Class C misdemeanor, punishable up to 30 days in jail and/or a $1,250 fine. Just how the executive order would be enforcement is still somewhat unclear because Brown said Oregon law enforcement needs to be focusing on what she termed real emergencies. During the afternoon media conference call, Brown also said she is considering extending the Oregon tax filing deadline due to the coronavirus health crisis. “It is on the table for discussion,” she said. According to Brown, each decision she is making during the health crisis has a wide ranging ripple effect. “There is no playbook for all of these things,” she said. “Decisions are being made hourby-hour. We are making the decisions as best possible with the best information available. Every single action we take has ripple effects. We are carefully considering all decisions.” Jeremy C. Ruark, Executive Editor of The Chronicle, also contributed to this article.

Ugliness and Hatred During Crises Today someone painted, “Go Home” on the road at the north end of Lincoln City. In a community that largely ignored the global concern over COVID-19, I find it embarrassing. Residents of the coast routinely rely on Salem’s and outlnying areas for groceries, gas and necessities, however, when the reverse happens, it is met with ugliness and hatred. We are in this crisis together. The coast offers space, fresh air and miles of

beaches; a peace of mind no one engineered or designed. Our restaurants and stores are grateful for the business locals will not give. We must share our resources, encourage each other, remember that condo owners, fractional owners and second home owners are technically residents and support our community infrastructures. Yes, we must use caution. Yes, we must be mindful, but NO, we must not scapegoat and target others for our fears. Many locals would not hesitate to open their doors for family and loved ones who need a place to stay.

Those same loved ones could be considered “tourists” by someone else’s standards. Let us be a community who embraces and not shuns. As far as I’ve been told, the death rate is still one per person...how do we face what eventually is inevitable? Yes, my own family members are medically fragile. Yes, I have pulmonary issues; yet I would rather open my home and my space in this uncertain time than to live my days in fear and hostility. MeLinda Wentz, Lincoln City

moved to Wecoma, Oregon (now Lincoln City) when Richard was discharged from the US Army in 1952. The only job she ever had was as a social worker for the State of Oregon. When she started in Portland shortly after graduating from college, the agency was known as the Welfare Department. When she and Richard moved to the coast, she started working in the Tillamook office and then transferred to Newport when the state opened an office there. By the time she retired in 1992, the agency was known as Senior and Disabled services. After retiring, she volunteered at Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital for many years and also for several years with the Lincoln City Chamber of Commerce. She loved traveling, reading, music, horses and cats. She was predeceased by her husband, Richard, in 1999. She is survived by her daughter, Betty Fifer of Salem, Oregon, several cousins and her loving caregivers from Aging Wisely with Heartfelt Hands. A graveside service was held on Monday, March 23, at the Summerville Cemetery near La Grande.

Forty years ago, as a hospital fund-raiser, I attended a national conference where the speaker made these thought-provoking points: “Without a periodic medical research “blockbuster” breakthrough, e.g. the Salk vaccine for Polio, the public will lose patience and confidence in medical research and hospitals as miracle workers.’ He noted, “Incremental advances may delay the disillusionment and may buy us a few years of unquestioning support, e.g., government funding and private donors, but, without “headline grabbing” advances in conventional research with Cancer, Diabetes, M.S. etc.,” he predicted, “step back and watch alternative medicine grow and our (donors) dwindle.” Today, some people are losing patience and confidence in medical research. They demand, “ASAP is not

fast enough” for a vaccine for CONVID-19 Flu. They ask, “If the Good Doctor and New Amsterdam can solve the most challenging crushed conditions in 60 minutes, why can’t we?” They demand, “We want a “blockbuster” now!” Actually, medical research advances are mostly measured in inches, not quantum leaps. As a veteran of the badly-managed 1976 Swine Flu Vaccination Campaign, (remember the fear of not enough fertilized eggs to produce the vaccine for every person in the U.S.? ) The Campaign was derailed and cancelled abruptly when some of the vaccinated developed serious side effects, especially Gillian-Barre Syndrome. So, lets give everyone on the front line of this new and unique “war” a break, from medical researchers to check out clerks at the grocery coping with empty shelves. This too will pass.

Tip of the Week: Protect yourself and others from illness LINCOLN COUNTY SHERIFFâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S OFFICE

Many organizations throughout the county are working diligently to make sure our community is safe, healthy, and educated. We would like to take a minute to thank our Lincoln County Emergency Management and Lincoln County Public Health for their hard work and dedication. They remain diligent to the mission and stay up to date on the latest information to keep our community informed. COVID-19

Know How it Spreads: - There is currently no vaccine to prevent coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). - The best way to prevent illness is to avoid being exposed to this virus. - The virus is thought to spread mainly from personto-person. - Between people who are in close contact with one another (within about 6 feet). - Through respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes. - These droplets can land in the mouths or noses of people who are nearby or

possibly be inhaled into the lungs. Take steps to protect yourself: - Clean your hands often - Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds especially after you have been in a public place, or after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing. - If soap and water are not readily available, use a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol. Cover all surfaces of your hands and rub them together until they feel dry. - Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands. Avoid close contact - Avoid close contact with people who are sick - Put distance between yourself and other people if COVID-19 is spreading in your community. This is especially important for people who are at higher risk of getting very sick. For more tips visit thenewsguard.com

ent, Kamikawa said she would like to see more support for parents and foster parents, especially those with children with special needs. Since 2003, Kamikawa has been the leader of Girl Scout Troop 10099 in Toledo and has held the positions of Service Unit Manager, Registrar and Product Manager for Girl Scout Service Unit 27 that encompasses all of Lincoln County. In her 17 years as a leader, Kamikawa has provided guidance to over 300 girls, many of whom are now adults in our community. Since 2018, Kamikawa has been working to educate the residents of Lincoln County on alter-

nate disposal methods for biosolids other than land applications. She has also become an advocate for the homeless in Lincoln County becoming President of the Board of Directors for Grace Winds Haven, a Day Resource Center for the Homeless located on 1st street in Newport in April of 2019. Also in the winter of 2019-2020, she assisted in the day-to-day operations of the winter overnight shelter at the Lincoln County Commons. “I believe that by setting long term and annual goals the Lincoln County Board of Commissioners (LCBOC), we can create a county-wide strategic plan that will allow Lincoln County to grow and

prosper into the future,” Kamikawa said. “The LCBOC needs to be forward thinking, transparent and inclusive of all points of view, because our citizens are our greatest assets. “If given the honor to be your next County Commissioner I will work hard to restore past programs, expand existing programs and find sources and funding for new programs that address children and families, mental health and homelessness in Lincoln County.” Kamikawa said she will

also collaborate with the cities, towns and unincorporated areas to create an environment that supports existing businesses, as well as attract new businesses and jobs to Lincoln County. For Kamikawa, it is all about being proactive not reactive.

TLC, a Division of Fibre Federal Credit Union is stepping up to help ensure children don’t go hungry while schools are closed. TLC pledged to donate up to $55,000, which will be disbursed to help each of the 24 school districts within its service areas across seven counties in Oregon and Washington. Collectively, these districts serve over 37,000 total students.

Shannon Cahoon, Community Development Manager for TLC, says the credit union is taking extra care to be responsive to the needs of its communities during this time, especially students who depend on school breakfasts and lunches as regular meals. “Taking care of our youth and helping create equitable access to economic stability are two very important tenets of our corporate mission,” Cahoon said. “Meeting the needs of vulnerable students and families during this challenging time is one way we can carry out those goals.”

OSAA extends spring sports suspension, cancels speech and music championships THE NEWS GUARD

Per Governor Kate Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s announcement on March 17 regarding statewide school closures, the Oregon School Activities Association (OSAA) has extended the suspension of interscholastic practices and contests for sports and activities for all member schools through April 28. The OSAA Executive Board, during a conference call, clarified the language regarding usage of high school facilities and communication between coaches and participants during the moratorium-like suspension period. This updated information, in the form of questions and answers, may be accessed at http://www.osaa.org/coronavirus. The OSAA Executive Board had general discussion around each Spring activity and sport, varying timelines for decisions based on chronological order of the events, host venue availability and issues with following CDC, state and local protocols for gatherings,

especially given event formats and that some events are indoor vs. outdoor. The Board made the following determinations regarding the Speech and Solo Music State Championships: Speech State Championships (currently scheduled for April 23-25, 2020): Only four of the 14 special districts were able to complete qualifying events prior to the school closures. The eventâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cutoff date for entries (April 11) and the event itself fall within the school closure window. Western Oregon University remains open but delaying the event does not fit within the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s current schedule of events. Due to the aforementioned issues, along with no clear option for technology solutions to be implemented, the OSAA Executive Board voted to cancel the Speech State Championships for 2020. Solo Music State Championships (currently scheduled for May 2, 2020): All 15 OMEA districts were able to complete qualifying events prior to the

The OSAA will meet April 1 and 15 to discuss the remainder of the spring sports season. Pictured is Taft Tiger JJ French during last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s District Championship Track Meet. March 17 district deadline. The rest of the deadlines for submitting school information, accompanist changes, etc. all fall within the statewide school closure window. Pacific University has notified the OSAA that

all on-campus events are cancelled and the OSAA Solo Music State Championship cannot be held on their campus. The OSAA relies heavily on the arts programs at Pacific University, along with

staff and student personnel, to facilitate the event. Due to the aforementioned issues, along with no clear option for technology solutions to be implemented, the OSAA Executive Board voted to cancel the Solo Music State Championships for 2020. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As parents and former participants, the Executive Board and staff share in the disappointment of students, schools and communities regarding the cancellation of these state championships,â&#x20AC;? said Peter Weber, OSAA Executive Director. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We all remain committed to the health and safety of students throughout Oregon during this evolving public health emergency.â&#x20AC;? The OSAA Executive Board has committed to meeting on April 1, and again on April 15, to reevaluate the suspension of Spring activities and sports, along with the remaining Spring State Championships. This will allow the Board to review any updated guidelines and directives in collaboration with the

Governorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office, the Oregon Health Authority, the Oregon Department of Education, the OSAA Sports Medicine Advisory Committee and member school administrators from throughout the state as this situation continues to evolve. The OSAA Track and Field State Championships, originally scheduled to be held at the University of Oregon, will be split out and moved to different venues due to construction timelines for the completion of Hayward Field. New arrangements have the 6A, 5A, 4A events being held at Mt. Hood Community College and the 3A, 2A, 1A events at Western Oregon University, both on May 29-30. Upcoming OSAA meetings, including the April 6 Delegate Assembly meeting, have been postponed until further notice. Additionally, while the OSAA office will remain open, most staff will be working remotely through April 28. Please access staff contact information at http://www.osaa.org.
