Crescent City man found guilty of murdering parents

By David Rupkalvis The Triplicate

A Crescent City man could spend the rest of his life in prison after being convicted of killing his parents last week.

Casey Rhyn Potter, 41, was found guilty of murder of 2 people and was sentenced to 15 years to life in prison.

Potter was convicted of killing

his parents, 77-year-old Brian Gilbert Potter and 71-year-old Sherrie Lynn Potter at their Crescent City home. Their bodies were found Feb. 16, 2020, and Casey Potter was arrested two days later at a bus stop in Crescent City. At the time of his arrest, he was in possession of a loaded firearm.

A few months after his arrest, Potter’s attorney claimed he was not mentally competent to assist his

defense. In the filing, the attorney said Potter referred to his parents as “clones and trespassers.”

After being reviewed by psychologists, a judge ruled Potter was competent to stand trial, moving the case forward.

Potter was originally charged with two counts of murder, with a special enhancement for carrying the loaded firearm. He was convicted of the single count of murder of

2 people and will spend at least 15 years behind bars.

It was a busy week in the courthouse as three other suspects were convicted and sentenced to prison terms.

Shawn Robert Frillman, 42, of Crescent City, was convicted of failing to register as a sex offender and was given two years in prison.

Helms retires from harbor district ZACK DEMARS The Triplicate

Last week, Charlie Helms stepped down the spiral staircase of the Crescent City Harbor District’s office one final time, retiring after leading the district in the years after the harbor’s post-tsunami reconstruction.

The years Helms spent running the harbor district didn’t look like what you might usually associate with a harbor master.

While he was ultimately responsible for maintaining marina facilities, for example, and the big windows in his office did look out onto the harbor, Helms spent much of his time as CEO and harbor master focused on economic development beyond just the boats coming in and out of the harbor.

“There’s a lot of variety in the job, and still is,” Helms said of the job, which he said might be more aptly titled “harbor manager.”

Helms said his background gave him the chance to do things differently.

Not wanting to get stuck in a small Illinois town, Helms turned down a newspaper job after graduating with a journalism degree, choosing instead to work as a deckhand in Mississippi.

There, he got his start in the maritime industry, next spending time working in offshore oil in the Gulf of Mexico.

But as Helms moved west, his worked changed, getting more involved in economic development, housing availability and nonprofit management. By the time he applied for the job in Crescent City, he’d spent years working with nonprofits in Western Washington.

“I had the maritime background, but I also had the development background,” Helms said. “So for me, I was a hybrid hire.”

After moving to Crescent City (and living a few months in an

cent City, was convicted of dissuading a witness by force or threat with a special allegation of a prior strike and was sentenced to four years in prison.

Frank Louis Schjoth Sr., 51, of Crescent City, was convicted of false imprisonment by force with a special allegation of a prior strike and was sentenced to six years in prison.

Outgoing Crescent City Harbor District CEO Charlie Helms sits in his office on his last day of work. Helms retired after seven years with the port.

RV park to make sure the new job worked out), Helms found that experience was useful — in particular, the connections he’d made with federal government officials.

The ability to make those sorts of connections with government leaders and potential investors would be important to the harbor’s goals for economic development and revitalization. But Helms found that working inside government, instead of just with it, came with its own learning curve.

“I got to work with a lot of federal elected officials that way, but I had never been inside the system,” Helms said. “That was the big thing, is learning how the government works from the inside.”

Most “eyeopening” about his first government job was dealing with how slow things can be, often because of the public notice and comment periods required for government accountability, Helms said.

“It’s a wonderful thing. But most of the time it’s 30 days,” Helms said. “Unfortunately, not many people take advantage of it.”

He pointed to a move the harbor commission tried to take over the summer, when one commissioner suggested offering a special on slips. After the item made it to a meeting agenda, and the commission waited the required public notice period, the summer was almost over.

Still, Helms said the harbor had made a lot of good progress during his tenure.

He pointed to new projects around the harbor as successes.

In particular, Helms said he was proud to negotiate a new lease for Englund Marine, which constructed a new facility on harbor property.

He noted the harbor’s green energy efforts, too: A multi-stage solar energy project, with panels to produce electricity, mass batteries

to store them and a potential vehicle charging building all in the works to make the harbor electrically self-sufficient.

“I want to see us be the first green harbor built on the west coast,” Helms said.

What’s more, some of that new development has improved the harbor’s financial position.

“He has left the harbor in a better position for me,” said Tim Petrick, deputy harbor master, who’ll be filling Helms’ shoes until the harbor commission selects a permanent replacement.

One of Helms’ most exciting projects, though, is only just beginning. The harbor just selected a firm to redevelop many portions of the harbor over the next several years.

Helms hopes the development will promote growth in the area, with additional jobs and businesses.

After being downgraded from the Purple Tier to Red Tier, Crescent City is wasting no time in working to reopen its pool.

During a City Council meeting Monday, the council heard the city is hoping to open the pool April 12 and started training lifeguards Monday.

When the pool is open, fees will remain the same, although the city will no longer sell the 50-punch pass that was popular in the past.

Recreation Director Holly Wendt said despite city costs rising, city staff felt it was best to leave fees alone.

“At this time, staff would like to recommend we don’t move forward with increasing fees during COVID,” Wendt said.

Wendt said the decision was in part because many people are hurting due to virus lockdowns but also because the city can’t open the pool for all functions. When it opens, the pool will not have open swim, no slide and the locker rooms will not be available.

Wendt said when the pool opens, the city would like to have only three options for passes – swim lessons, day passes and 10-punch passes. Anyone who has an unused 50-punch pass can still use it until it runs out, but no more will be offered for sale.

“This will really simplify the process for pool staff,” Wendt said.

With no price increases, day passes are $5 for youth and seniors and $5.50 for adults. The 10-punch pass will be sold for $40 for youth and seniors and $45 for adults.

A love of rocks: Bitting opens business after falling in love with gems

By David Rupkalvis The Triplicate

Sherri Bitting never expected to fall in love with rocks. She certainly never expected to sell them.

But sometimes, fate has a way of changing things.

In 2016, Bitting came to Crescent City with one plan, see her dad.

But that trip turned fateful in many ways.

“I was in Arizona, and in 2016, I came to visit my dad,” she said Saturday. “I went to the swap meet to sell some of my dad’s stuff. I met this man named Julian who was sitting in front of me. He invited me to go obsidian hunting in Oregon. I fell in love with rocks then.”

Bitting also fell in love with Julian, later marrying him and staying in Northern California. But the rocks quickly became her passion.

“Before that, I didn’t notice a rock,” she said. “But then Julian started taking me to the beach, and I saw these beautiful rocks. They have so much energy in them.”

Bitting not only loved the colors and shapes, as she studied rocks, she learned they have their own powers. Many crystals have healing powers, which Bitting knows personally.

“Every crystal does,” she said.

“They are vibrating, and we are

It’s my understanding the rocks absorb the negative ions in our body. When I first started helping Julian, people would come up to the table and start handling rocks, and I said this is crazy.”

When Bitting came down with shingles, she struggled to get better.

Then she learned of a rock that could treat the illness, so she gave it a shot. Overnight, the shingles dried up and fell off. Now, she doesn’t leave home without her crystals.

A few years ago, Bitting started selling rocks along the side of Highway 101, but when COVID hit, the state stopped all roadside sales. She found a new location in Smith River and opened her business, Love Rocks n Gems. She now sets up outside under a tent at the location on Highway 101 and Sarina Road. Being outside allows her to run her business under the COVID restrictions. Once COVID has waned, she plans to open a storefront at the same location.

Under the tent, Bitting offers rocks for a variety of reasons. Some are pretty, others have healing powers and some are things people just like to buy. Bitting also makes and sells her own jewelry in an effort to reach more people.

“Most people who stop are looking for healing or pretty or both,” she said.

Bitting said she hopes more entrepreneurs will join her at the Please see ROCKS, Page A9

Galchutt artwork featured at Maley Art Center A2 | FRIDAY, MARCH 5, 2021

By Knox Keranen The Triplicate

David Galchutt can pinpoint the exact moment he knew he wanted to be an artist; a moment that came early on in his life.

“When I was in kindergarten, we all had to draw trees and I drew my tree with branches and bird’s nests and things, and I looked at everybody else’s and they all looked like Q-tips. Brown and green Q-tips,” said Galchutt. “I figured at that point maybe that’s what I did that was a little bit special.”

Since then, Galchutt graduated from ArtCenter College of Design in Pasadena, Calif., and worked as an illustrator for 40 years in various industries, including children’s literature, giftware, toys and greeting cards. He also authored and illustrated his own children’s book, “There Was Magic Inside,” which was published by notable publishing house Simon & Schuster. As the current featured artist at the Manley Art Center, his recent works will be on display until April 3.

Galchutt attributes his success as an artist in part to the guidance and encouragement he received from his parents early on, both of whom were also artists. His father was a graphic designer and his mother studied costume design at Chouinard Arts Institute, where the two met.

“I don’t know if genetics has anything to do with it or not, but my parents were extraordinarily gifted and shared their insights and talents with me,” said Galchutt.

When looking at Galchutt’s paintings and illustrations, you may notice some common elements, such as kings, castles and whimsical characters wearing ornate, medieval-looking costumes.

Galchutt said that is because he is most interested in making art about historical periods and is inspired by his travels abroad.

“When I go abroad, especially in England… I take tons of photos. It could be architectural detail, it could be a tapestry, it could be part of a costume that inspires me, and I will snap photos and a lot of times those end up appearing in my art work later,” said Galchutt.

As an illustrator, Galchutt worked primarily with watercolors. However, he switched to oil paints when he noticed he could achieve deeper and richer color, and for the last 12 years he has painted solely with oils but is still learning how to use them.

“I never really got much instruction in art school regarding oils. So, I decided to teach myself how to use them and it is still a learning process,” Galchutt said.

Those who are interested can view Galchutt’s exhibit of oil paintings at the Manley Art Center, which is open

The work of artist David Galchutt will be on display through April 3 at the Manley Art Center.

11 a.m. 3 p.m., Thursday through Saturday. A reception for his exhibit will be held March 13 from 4 to 6 p.m. Galchutt said he hopes his work will have a positive

impact on the community.

“If they enjoy looking at it, that makes me very happy,” said Galchutt.

The Manley Art Center is located at 433 Oak Street in Brookings.

Huffman vows to support American Rescue Plan House Democratic Policy and Communications Cochair Ted Lieu (CA-33) and Representatives Jared Huffman (CA-02), John Garamendi (CA-03) and Suzanne Bonamici (OR-01) passed the American Rescue Plan in the House last week to help crush the COVID-19 virus and get the economy moving again with shots in arms, money in pockets, children

in schools and people in jobs.

Today, the members held a press conference on the urgent need for the Senate to pass the legislation.

The American Rescue Plan will get money in the pockets of Californians with rescue checks of up to $1,400 for individuals. Combined with the $600 down payments enacted in December, these additional checks will finish the

job on Democrats’ promise to put $2,000 in Americans’ pockets.

It will also extend pandemic-related unemployment benefits so that 18 million American workers can pay their bills. And it will help keep people in their homes and apartments with housing assistance; put food on tables with nutrition assistance for

40 million Americans; support 27 million children with an expanded Child Tax Credit and support more than 17 million workers through the Earned Income Tax Credit; and lower health care costs to help families stay covered in the pandemic.

“Our highest needs and priorities are all met by the American Rescue Plan:

making sure we can safely reopen schools, getting tens of millions of people vaccinated quickly to crush the pandemic and then providing that economic lifeline for millions of families out there, people who are out of work, people who are on the verge of evictions and foreclosures, struggling just to put food on the table,” said Huffman.

“The people we serve have waited, I believe, too long for this relief already. So, asking our Republican colleagues to join us should not be controversial if our job is serving the people. I hope they’ll do that, but with or without them we have to move this legislation forward right now with no more delays and no more piecemeal proposals.”

CORVALLIS – Art About Agriculture, an annual exhibition of agriculture-themed artwork coordinated by Oregon State University’s College of Agricultural Sciences, is holding an open call for artists to participate in the 2021 exhibition.

This year’s show will be a competitive, juried exhibition. The deadline for submissions is April 4. The show is scheduled to open for viewing with limited occupancy on June 4 at Giustina Gallery in the LaSells Stewart Center on Oregon State’s Corvallis campus. The reception date and details are currently undetermined due to COVID-19 considerations.

The theme for 2021 is simple: Art about agriculture. Artists from the Pacific Northwest are invited to consider the influence and inspiration from agriculture found in their artwork. All visual art styles and approaches are welcome.

“Imagine 2020 without agricultural workers, producers and researchers,” said Owen Premore, directing curator of the Art about Agriculture program. “We hope artists see this as an opportunity to recognize agriculture in their artwork with the potential to change the way someone understands or appreciates

food, fiber and natural resources in their daily lives.”

Last year, Art about Agriculture hosted its first juried exhibit in a decade, attracting 208 art submissions from across the Pacific Northwest.

“Not only did we receive a record number of submissions, we were able to acquire 11 new art acquisitions,” Premore said. “I have tremendous hope for what 2021 might bring.”

Art About Agriculture was established in 1983 at the College of Agricultural Sciences as the region’s first annual agricultural-themed arts competition and touring exhibit. It recognizes professional and emerging Northwest artists; creates a growing, dynamic, permanent collection of fine art based on portraying agriculture and natural resources; and presents the permanent collection and touring exhibits across the state.

The permanent collection contains 379 works of art by 229 artists. Artworks are exhibited on the OSU campus in Corvallis and by loan agreement throughout Oregon and other parts of the Northwest.

Jurors for the 2021 competition and touring exhibition are: • Tanmaya Bingham, director of One River School

of Art + Design in Lake Oswego and internationally exhibiting artist.

• Bob Keefer, former arts writer for The Register-Guard newspaper in Eugene and current arts editor for Eugene Weekly, author and artist.

• Joyce Loper, associate dean for research and professor of botany and plant pathology in the College of Agricultural Sciences at Oregon State University.

• Debby Sundbaum-Sommers, Philomath-based artist and educator with artwork in numerous public and private collections.

• Robyn Williams, executive director of Portland’5 Centers for the Arts and mixed media artist.

Artworks selected for the exhibitions will be eligible for art purchase awards funded by Art About Agriculture’s purchase awards-specific endowments and donations from patrons. Purchased artwork will be added to the Art About Agriculture Permanent Collection.

After opening on Oregon State’s Corvallis campus, the Art About Agriculture Competition and Touring Exhibition 2021 is scheduled for display at the Parrish Gallery in the Chehalem Cultural Center in Newberg, in August and September.

OBITUARIES Edwin Lee Owings

William E. Schumack

November 13, 1958 -February 23, 2021

February 8, 1951 - January 24, 2021

Eddie passed away peacefully on February 23, 2021, at 62 years old, in Crescent City, CA. He was born in Fort Bragg, CA to Thelma

and Joel Owings. He was the first graduate from Sunset High School in 1976. Eddie was known as a storyteller and jokester to those that knew him. He was a dedicated son and cared for his mother Thelma for many years. Most will remember him for his contagious laughter. His favorite past times were playing with his dogs, cooking, and gardening. He was a man of strong faith and would worship often at the church formerly known as Oceanview Baptist.

He made many lifelong friends through his fishing adventures. Being a commercial fisherman, and eventually Captain of the F/V Carme-

lia Maria, was his livelihood for many years.

He leaves behind his two children Cara Owings and Emily Reed (Thomas) and he leaves behind his fiancé, Angelina, of 15 years. He also leaves behind Theresa Johnson and her two adult children Ronnie and Joann Johnson, a great niece and nephew, and his three granddaughters Annalena, Teeme’, and Marlee Reed.

He is preceded in death by his mother and father Thelma and Joel, and his sister Lola Owings.

Private family services were held. He will be deeply missed by all those that knew him.

F Street to close Starting Monday, March 8, to June 30, F Street will be intermittently closed for partial reconstruction from Front Street to 4th Street. This is a portion of the Front Street storm drain project intended to reduce flooding in Crescent City.

Please call The City of Crescent City Public Works Department if you have questions at (707) 464-9506 ext 226.

William (Bill) Edward Schumack passed away on January 24th, 2021 at home surrounded by family in Medford, OR. William was born on February 8th, 1951 in Pearcy, CA, and grew up in the Eureka, CA area before living the majority of

his life in Crescent City, CA. William had a reputation as a great fisherman and was known for his generosity and kind heart. Those that knew Bill, express the impact he had on them and the good man that he was. He will be sorely missed by friends and family.

Bill was preceded in death by his mother Ann Fitzgerald, father Orion Schumack, sister Patricia Yancey (Schumack), and wife Cathy Schumack (Brown/Lynch/Albro). As a loved father, Bill leaves behind sons William Schumack II, James Schumack, David Schumack, and daughter Kimberly Schumack. Grandpa Bill also leaves 14 grandchildren; Patience Schumack, Nicolas Schumack, Cassandra Schumack, Corbyn Schumack, Bri-

anna Schumack, Dawson Schumack, David Schumack II, Jazmine Roberts, Jared Roberts, Ronald Evans II, Kyle Evans, Alexander Evans, Alyssa Evans and Brooke-Lynn Clary. Great Grandpa Bill leaves Ashlynn and Bryson Schumack. Bill also leaves step-children Nathan, Josh, Shane and Adam Brown and Aries Lynch.

A celebration of life will be held for Bill later this year near Big Flat and all interested will be welcome to attend.

Next time you are out fishing “Catch one For Bill” and when you see someone in need, please “Give them a Buck for Bill”. May God guide this beloved man to reunite for his family in heaven and watch over him until the we all reunite again!

Huffman touts protecting public wilderness The Triplicate

Congressman Jared Huffman joined three of his colleagues during a press conference Thursday to push for passage of several bills that would protect more than 1 million acres of wilderness and public lands in California.

Huffman, who represents Del Norte County, was joined by Representatives Adam Schiff, Judy Chu and Salud Carbajal in pushing for the bill that was to be voted on Friday in the U.S. House.

The bill has not been considered by the Senate yet.

Huffman was pushing for a

bill he authored, the Northwest California Wilderness, Recreation, and Working Forests Act. According the Huffman, the act would take land in Northern California that is already under federal control and protect it for generations to come.

“I’m very excited about this day and the chance to vote on the package of bills,” Huffman said. “In my district, outdoors is not something we appreciate, it a way of life. My bill includes an ambitious plan to restore forest health.”

Huffman said the bill would also make changes for

wildfire protection and would play big benefits for spawning salmon.

“It takes conservation seriously because it’s needed for the future of our country and the future of our planet,” he said.

Huffman said he has been working on the legislation since he joined Congress in 2013. He said in his district, public lands are more than just being outdoors.

“Public lands are such an important part of our economy,” Huffman said.

“Now it’s time to finish the job and I’m excited about the opportunity.”

The package of bills was approved by the House last year but stalled in the Senate.

With Democrats now in charge of the Senate, Huffman said he hopes the bill, which has bipartisan support in the House, will get an up and down vote.

“It’s not unusual at all that bills that have a common subject matter get bundled together,” Huffman said. “We did get bipartisan support in the House and if we can get past the 60-vote threshold in the Senate, we will get bipartisan support there.”

All four members of Congress said they are willing to

tack the legislation onto other packages to get a better shot at an up or down vote.

“I will attach it to a ham sandwich if it gets it a vote in the U.S. Senate,” Huffman said. “If the bill comes to a vote, it will pass in the Senate.”

While much of the legislation prevents most commercial activity, such as mining and logging in the public lands, Huffman’s bill does allow some logging in a smaller area. Huffman said that area, a couple hundred thousand acres, has replanted and is now overgrown and a serious fire danger.

“These are not healthy forests, they are vulnerable to catastrophic fire,” he said.

“We need to go in and do some management.”

The Northwest California Wilderness, Recreation, and Working Forests Act includes the Redwood National Forest and state forest and calls for some items specific to Del Norte County. One would allow the federal government to build and run a Del Norte County Visitor Center. Details on the bill can be seen at https://www.congress.gov/ bill/116th-congress/housebill/2250/text.

Libraries have played a big role in my life

Sometimes, poison is the only thing that works

By Ted Williams Three percent of Earth’s land mass is comprised of islands, but 95 percent of all bird extinctions have occurred on them. Main cause: Mice and rats introduced by humans.

Only 10 percent of the world’s islands are rodent-free, but a rodenticide called brodifacoum is changing that. On hundreds of treated islands recovery of native plants and wildlife has been swift and spectacular.

Consider rugged, 1,450-square-mile South Georgia Island in the Subantarctic. Before mice and rats disembarked from whaling vessels, it had been Earth’s richest seabird rookery. For three years, it’s been rodent free thanks to a $13.5 million project in which brodifacoum was applied by helicopters. All 33 bird species are surging back. South Georgia pipits, for example, had been virtually eliminated; now their vocalizing drowns out the roaring of elephant seals.

On the U.S. National Wildlife Refuge of Palmyra in the South Pacific, rats killed millions of seabirds representing 10 species, decapitated hatchling sea turtles, decimated 10 species of land crabs and consumed seeds of imperiled Pisonia trees, halting all reproduction. Today the entire ecosystem has recovered thanks to brodifacoum treatment in 2011.

In 2012, the estimated rat population on the Galápagos island of Pinzón was 18 million. All Pinzón giant tortoises hatched there were at least 150 years old because rats had eaten juveniles.

In December of that year, brodifacoum killed every rat.

Within months, hatchling Pinzón tortoises appeared for the first time in a century and a half - produced by animals raised and repatriated by the Santa Cruz Tortoise Center.

On the Farallon Islands National Refuge, 27 miles off San Francisco, mice introduced by sealers threaten

to extirpate 4,000 ashy storm-petrels – half the planet’s population. In autumn the ground undulates with mice. Sit down, and they crawl all over you.

Before mice infested the refuge, burrowing owls rested briefly on their fall migration. Now they linger into winter, gorging on mice.

With seed shortage, mice turn to cannibalism, then starve, so owls switch to ashy storm-petrels. Enough mice survive that their population explodes again when new seeds appear.

Meanwhile mice expose sea lions and seals to deadly pathogens, spread seeds of invasive plants, devour pollinators of native plants and consume two rare species found nowhere else - Farallon camel crickets and Farallon arboreal salamanders.

Since 2004, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has tried to restore ecological health to the Farallons, but it’s continuously intimidated by opponents of all poisons in all situations.

To restore island ecosystems, brodifacoum applied by trained wildlife professionals is an absolute necessity. But brodifacoum abused by the public is an absolute disaster for mainland ecosystems. These are two thoughts opponents of island recovery can’t grasp simultaneously.

Animal-rights activist Maggie Sergio proves the old saw that one concerned citizen can make a difference.

She proves also that this isn’t always a good thing.

Sergio has whipped the city of San Francisco, the California Coastal Commission and the public to a froth of fear and loathing. Her

online petition against the project has 39,000 signatures.

Sergio’s screeds in the Huffington Post and elsewhere include such fiction as: “1.3 metric tons of brodifacoum” will be dropped by helicopter. There isn’t enough brodifacoum in the world to drop 1.3 metric tons; 1.54 ounces would be dropped, this to be mixed with 1.3 metric tons of grain.

And: “The pesticide label for ‘Brodifacoum 25’ indicates that up to 24 pounds per acre will be applied.” No, “Brodifacoum 25” contains 25 parts brodifacoum per million parts grain.

These and other untruths are recycled by the media, the Coastal Commission, the city, WildCare and the Ocean Foundation. One might suppose that the foundation would defend ocean mammals and rare ocean birds. Instead it frets about imagined cruelty to mice and possible by-kill of super-abundant western gulls.

The Fish and Wildlife Service doesn’t need permission from state bureaucrats to manage wildlife belonging to all Americans. But scolded by the Coastal Commission, it’s re-revising plans it has revised and re-revised for 17 years.

Zach Warnow of Point Blue Conservation Science retains hope: “I don’t think we’ll win over opponents; but we’ll get this message to the undecideds: We’re in a time when people are doubting scientists, and we need to get back to trusting the scientific process that’s been so well represented in this project.”

The service will again plead its case to the Coastal Commission at a hearing tentatively scheduled for May. Comments should be sent to: farallonislands@coastal. ca.gov Ted Williams is a contributor to Writers on the Range, writersontherange.org, a nonprofit dedicated to spurring lively conversation about the West. He writes about wildlife for national publications.

We love our patrons, and today, we highlight the beautiful words of one of our long-time friends, Terah Van Dusen. Has the library helped you? If you would like to contribute to our Library Love campaign by sharing your story with us, send us a message; we would love to hear from you.

Growing up in Crescent City in the ’90s, there weren’t a ton of places for kids to hang out. There was McDonalds, but that could become costly. I lived in Rock Creek with my dad, and there was a gap between when I got out of school and he got out of work. I don’t remember who first introduced me to the Del Norte Public Library, because I only ever remember being there alone. But as soon as I discovered it, I started going more and more. I remember reading my first entire novel seated at a table in the middle of the library. I remember sending my first e-card from a computer in the corner (there were just two public computers in the library at that time). I remember marveling at how I didn’t need to ask anyone’s permission to use the library, I just walked in and found a comfortable spot to read, often escaping the rain. Since then my love

continued. I regularly visit the public library where I live, near Veneta, Oregon. I write articles about library events for our local newspaper. I recently published a children’s book that I wrote, and my grandmother illustrated. When I found out I was pregnant with my daughter, I even took the test in the public library restroom, so I could leave that day with all the informational books on pregnancy that I could find.

Libraries have become my second home, and it’s

funny because I never really thought of how impactful they’ve been in my life until sitting down to write this.

International telephone calls will cost 7 cents per minute, a reduction of 68 cents per minute.

In addition to the rate reductions, the fee to establish a GTL account has also been eliminated. This charge was previously $3.

Together, these changes will save incarcerated people and their families more than $17 million each year. Additionally, every incarcerated person will be allotted 15 minutes of free telephone calls every two weeks using a new Personal Identification Number.

Incarcerated individuals began setting up their PINS at Valley State Prison starting Feb. 25 and will be activated at all institutions by March 18. GTL and CDCR will continue to offer two free calling days per month through March 2021.

Telephone calls for youth in the Division of Juvenile Justice will remain free of charge.

Under the new contract, the use of kiosks and tablets will allow for on-demand communication with family and friends, including secured email. There will be a significant reduction in the cost of messaging from the current rate of 30 cents per message to 5 cents per message. The technology will also provide access to educational, vocational and therapeutic content, as well as rehabilitative programs and activities, such as knowledge-based games and books.

These devices also allow all activities to be closely tracked and monitored for safety and security.

Video calls are also available on the tablets. At this

time, the free Webex video visiting system remains in place. However, the tablets will be available for those who would like to make video calls in a different location, or to offset limited video visiting station availability in visiting rooms. Video calls will cost 20 cents per minute.

The contract also provides for 15 minutes of free video calls every two weeks. These minutes do not have to be used at the same time and will reset every 14 days. These minutes may not be banked.

The contract was procured

by California Department of Technology in partnership with CDCR, at no cost to taxpayers. In addition to the reduced rate of telephone calls, the contract will set the department on the path to amplify communications technology across the system, including expanding access to tablets and kiosks for the entire incarcerated population. The tablet program is an expansion of a successful pilot program initiated at five institutions in 2018.

The lower cost of telephone calls will be implemented on March 19. The expansion of kiosks and tablets will be rolled out in the coming weeks and months, and the department will provide more details as the services come online.

“The communication between our incarcerated population and their loved ones is paramount to their rehabilitation. This reduction in the cost of telephone calls is the result of the hard work of our Administration and staff, and the commitment to make this communication affordable and accessible,” said Kathleen Allison, CDCR secretary.

Councilman Beau Smith questioned the prices, saying the city should consider higher fees to try to break even.

“It doesn’t seem like we’re charging enough money for the individual lessons,” he said. “That’s just me personally.”

Wendt explained the pool would likely never break even, especially with the minimum wage rising to $15 an hour in 2022.

“Running a municipal pool, it’s never going to break even,” she said.

“There’s always going to be a cost.”

Helms From Page A1

For Petrick, the potential development is an opportunity to continue the harbor’s shift towards ecotourism.

“We can turn our commercial fishing industry into a draw for tourism if you do it right,” Petrick said. “We’ve got all this room we can turn into something we can develop.”

Still, getting a developer interested in the opportunity of the harbor’s 36 acres took a lot of relationship building, Helms said. The work of attracting investors to the area was one of the most challenging aspects of the job, he said.

“Most of the large groups that do this type of work invest in cities,” Helms said.

“It’s hard to get here. It’s hard to attract investors.”

The best thing he could do to attract investors was bring them to town and show them the beauty and potential of the area, Helms said.

He’s looking forward to taking part of the area’s beauty in retirement, too: He’ll be staying in Crescent City a lit-

City Manager Eric Weir said the council would have an opportunity to look at increasing the prices during the budget session, if it wanted to.

“Our pool is a very nice pool, and the city’s done a nice job maintaining the pool,” Smith said. “I know it’s a very hot topic. The public really wants the pool back.”

After discussing the issue, the council voted unanimously to keep the prices the same, for now.

“I just want to thank Miss Wendt and her staff for all the hard work,” Mayor Jason Greenough said. “These are trying times.” tle while longer, as his wife, Karen, continues working as the executive director of the Northcoast Marine Mammal Center.

He’ll be paddle boarding and riding his bike through the redwoods while she’s at work, he said.

“This is one of the most beautiful areas we’ve ever lived,” Helms said.

He also doesn’t want to be done working with the harbor. He’s going to apply for an appointment to the harbor commission’s recently vacant seat, he said.

Helms is hopeful about the harbor’s future.

“I wish I could stay around for a lot of the big things happening,” Helms said. “I’m really just sad I won’t be here for it.”

Siskiyou Mountain Club is hiring interns After an exceptional 2020 season, the Siskiyou Mountain Club is hiring interns for their 2021 Wilderness Conservation Corps, an intensive summer program that includes 47 days of field work restoring the region’s most remote and spectacular backwoods trails. More information and applications are available at siskiyoumountainclub.org/wcc2021.

Field crews will be dispatched on 10-day projects in the Rogue-Umpqua Divide, Red Buttes, Siskiyou and Kalmiopsis federal wilderness areas. Crews camp out and live on the trail for that time. The work includes removing brush and debris, digging out buried trail tread and using old-fashioned crosscut saws to remove trees that have fallen on trails.

Interns receive a $1,500 monthly educational stipend and are eligible for a bonus.

Interns receive on-the-

job training, certificates and credentials recognized by federal land agencies. The program is recognized by the Conservation Service Corps and the 400 service hours can be used as a qualification element in federal jobs. The club provides housing on days off.

In 2020, Hector Avendano was hired onto the crew and traveled from his home in Las Vegas and ended up deep in the Kalmiopsis Wilderness on the remote Madstone Cabin Trail.

“It was rough around the edges,” Hector said while reflecting on a 10-day work hitch working in 100-degree heat. “But you work your way through it and you get to see places hardly anyone else does.”

Avendano started working as soon as he could legally, and probably a little before that.

“I grew up helping my parents out with whatever jobs they had,” he said.

He also worked in the Wild Rogue Wilderness Area, but his favorite project was in the highlands of the Siskiyou Wilderness along a mountain ridge that splits California’s Smith and Klamath rivers.

“We wanted to get this project done,” he said.

“There were some days we were walking back into camp at 9 p.m.”

“Successful applicants are those in honest pursuit of a personal and professional challenge,” said Executive Director Gabriel Howe.

“There’s no getting around it: This is tough work and most people aren’t up for it.”

He said the program is the heartbeat of the organization and the Corps is responsible for the hardest to reach and most difficult projects.

Interns must be 18 and

over, able to hike 10 miles with 50 pounds, and perform other duties of the job, and Howe says he’s hiring for leadership.

“We need to grow our staff in the coming years to meet the growing demand for our work,” he said.

The club works mostly in the Siskiyou Mountains of Southwest Oregon and Northwest California. The area is known for its rugged mountainscape, biodiversity and vast tracts of federal wilderness. The nonprofit helps manage approximately 350 miles of trails throughout over 500,000 acres of wilderness. 2020 marked the organization’s 10th-year in operation.

Howe said he’s hoping to have hiring wrapped up by mid April. Read more and apply at siskiyoumountainclub.org/wcc2021/.

Rocks

looking forward to the tourist season.

“It’s been very challenging, but I love it still. In the tourist season, it’s going to be obnoxious,” she said. “So, I hired a girl to help me out.”

On Saturday, Emily Wagy was helping, saying she wanted to pitch in because

she, too, is in love with rocks. Sharing that enthusiasm with Bitting and people who stop by is refreshing, she said.

The top sellers at Love Rocks n Gems are spheres and hearts, with Bitting’s custom jewelry close behind.

“I do a lot of custom

work,” she said. “I like to wear my rings to test them out. Me and my friends, we test them out.”

Love Rocks n Gems is open from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. every day the weather allows.

If it’s raining or too windy, they are forced to close.
