Primary 2026: election results for Coos County

Staff Report

As of the morning after election day on May 19, 2026, voter turnout for the Midterm Primary was up slightly compared to previous years at 41.9% in Coos County. That is 21,250 of the 50,729 eligible voters. This is a 1.3% increase on the 2022 midterms, representing 1,551 more votes than before. It puts Coos County well above the state average of 32.2%, showing great amounts of civic engagement!

Here are the preliminary results as of reporting on May 20. These numbers are still to be certified and subject to change.

Local Races & Measures

The races for county commissioner were won by incumbent John Sweet, who bested Brandi Martindale to retain position 2 by a 20-point margin. Rick Osborn defeated Richard Coleman in the race for position 3, and will take over Rod Taylor’s seat on dais.

Incumbent County Clerk Julie Brecke saw off challenges from Marty Kuhrt and Pam Lewis to retain her position by a large margin. North Bend’s two ballot measures saw the tightest race of the cycle. Measure 6-228 for a public safety fee increase passed by 1.64%, or just 49 votes. That will help fund the North Bend Police Department with a $5 monthly increase to residents’ fees. The proposal to make several changes to the North Bend City Charter was shot down.

Coos Forest Protective Association leads multi-agency rescue training

By Nate Schwartz World Editor

Amid the Douglas Fir and Alder atop the rolling hills east of Coos Bay, the Coos Forest Protective Association (CFPA) led a multi-agency rescue training day that included rope training, patient packaging and demonstrations from the local Coast Guard branch. The large undertaking saw fourteen departments come together to learn how to extricate someone injured out in the forest, in particular a fire fighter injured while combatting a blaze.

“It was invaluable training for us and for the fire departments and responders that came,” said Brett Weidemiller, one of CFPA’s Protection Supervisors. “There were folks there from all across our district. We have a pretty large area to protect, and that they all came together is very cool.

The morning consisted of a four-station rotation through aviation, 8-line, patient packaging and ropes training that saw over 80 representatives from different agencies literally learning the ropes. In addition to CFPA, the North Bend, Coos Bay, Myrtle Point, Bandon, Elkton and North Douglas County Fire Departments were on hand. As were Cal-Ore Life Flight, the US Coast Guard (USCG), ODF Western Lane, and Weyerhaeuser.

The idea for this large-scale training and simulation came through a season after action review, where organizations like hospitals, air transports and rescue services come together

to discuss the fire season just passed in order to gather feedback and take proactive steps toward making the next year’s season all that much safer.

“It’s important for folks to be aware that this is not a reactionary state when it comes to the safety of firefighters and woods-workers like Weyerhaeuser,” said Weidemiller. “We continue to talk about it, train on it, and prep for it through the rainy days. And it showed with the commitment and the skill sets we had in the training, and in making sure that we’re ready for the upcoming season.”

The exercise took place atop a ridge in the Bayview Range which is part of Weyerhaeuser’s

holdings in the area. The private timberland firm and wood products company owns over 1.4 million acres of timberlands in the state of Oregon, including a 210,000-acre stretch from Coos Bay to Roseberg, spanning across county lines.

The company regularly grants permission to agencies like the Coast Guard to conduct training and simulation exercises. The majority of the timberland in the Bayview Range is on the face of incredibly steep mountainside, hence the need for ropes training.

The afternoon period consisted of a demonstration from the USCG on their helicopter rescue procedure. Their MH-65 Dolphin helicopter was perched on the ridge ready to show how they are able to assist in a medical evacuation.

Upon arriving above the scene, the helicopter will fly several laps around the area judging wind speed and fuel levels. If the conditions lend themselves to a safe evac, the aircraft will slowly lower itself right to the top of the tree line, preferably over a reasonably clear area. Keeping the helicopter and anyone it may be lowering and picking back up out of the trees is the obvious goal.

Upon maintaining a steady hover, the basket will be lowered along with a USCG swimmer who will secure the

Coos County’s selections for state and federal races all saw victory as of writing, including a surprise nomination for Senator for David Brock Smith, who has served as the State Senator for District 1. Smith received strong support from Curry and Coos County, helping him over the line. He will face Senator Jeff Merkley in November.

injured party and raise them back up for transit to the nearest capable hospital. The scenes of the bright orange helicopter hanging in the air just above the tips of the timber was quite a sight.

The Coast Guard swimmer on hand was very clear about the importance of communication and urged that the cooperation between USCG and forest protection was paramount. For instance, during a firefighting scenario the winds caused by helicopter rotors may make the situation on the ground more dangerous. The CFPA are the experts in the forest and can communicate those conditions to the USGC who are literally a bit out of water up in the mountains.

This is the second year running that the CFPA has conducted this rescue training, with more agencies having joined for this second iteration. The plan is for there to be an annual training each year moving forward.

“The size just keeps growing every year we do it, and I think a lot of that has to do with the dedication and commitment for the folks to be as ready and trained as they can be in the chance that something happens. And its unfortunately not if it will happen, but when it will,” said Weidemiller.

new shows and celebrates 90th anniversary of the building

By Nate Schwartz World Editor

The Coos Art Museum opened two new exhibits last week including a commemoration of their home’s 90th birthday. While the museum first moved into the building in 1984, the old art deco post office was first opened in 1936.

In celebration of that anniversary, the museum is displaying the first ever exhibit made up entirely of pieces from the permanent collection. The CAM Retrospective, which displays the results of decades of collecting and conservation alongside some of the original blueprints for the building, is on display in the Foster Gallery upstairs.

The significance of that placement is not to be ignored. Tom Foster was a long-time board member of the museum and dedicated his time and passion to the permanent collection, in par-

ticular through adopting pieces. Foster passed away last year. The main way that the museum acquires pieces for the permanent collection was described

Wealth Inequality

Wealth inequality in the United States has reached levels that should concern every American.

While millions of working families struggle to afford housing, healthcare, childcare, and higher education, a small percentage of the population continues to accumulate enormous wealth at a historic pace.

Hard work should provide stability and opportunity, yet many full-time workers live paycheck to paycheck. At the same time, large corporations and the wealthiest Americans often benefit from tax loopholes and economic

policies that widen the gap between rich and poor.

Historically, Federal income tax rates for the top earners in 1965 were 70%. Today the top federal rate is 37%, and the top corporate rate is 21%, a decrease from over 52% in the 1960s. These massive decreases in tax rates on the rich and corporations occurred under the Reagan, Bush and Trump administrations.

Extreme inequality weakens our democracy and undermines social trust. A healthy economy depends on a strong middle class, fair wages, affordable education, and equal opportunity. We should support poli-

cies that empower workers, ensure fair taxation, expand access to healthcare and education, and create economic opportunity for everyone, not just those at the top.

America succeeds when prosperity is shared more broadly. It is time to address wealth inequality before the divide grows even larger. Please reach out to your elected officials and demand that they increase taxation of the rich and corporations to make it more equitable for all Americans, and pay down our massive Federal debt.

'Quietly surviving'

By Abbey Hope

Surviving has meant many different things to me over the last nine years. When I was 18, it felt like I just needed to hold on a little longer and then the nightmare would be over. In my early 20s, survival meant enduring PICC lines my body rejected, and giving myself IVs several times a day. It also meant desperately hoping for a breakthrough.

By my mid-20s, survival meant making it through every minute of excruciating pain, not knowing what else to do for my body. It felt like we had tried everything to make me better. Now, at 27, survival still means most of these things. But it also means something new: It means the little flickers of hope I get from spending evenings each week on Zoom with others who live their days surviving this as well. These are people in the middle of this battle with me. And let me tell you, they are pretty amazing to be making it through this. Every year, the CDC estimates that there are at least 476,000 new cases of Lyme Disease in the U.S. In reality, there are many more, because traditional

lab testing is poor and many cases go undiagnosed or unreported.

A recent ABC News article reported that the number of weekly visits to the ER for acute tick bites is at its highest level since 2017, according to the CDC. In some places, the visits for tick bites are more than double what they normally are this time of year.

The fact is, if you are getting diagnosed in an ER, you are actually quite lucky, as you will often get rapid treatment and be able to treat the acute infection. The most important thing is that you DO treat it and make sure you get a sufficient course of antibiotics to wipe it out.

Unfortunately, many cases never reach the ER. Some ticks are as small as a poppyseed, so it’s not always easy to see them on you. To make matters worse, the “classic bullseye rash” often never appears to warn you. Without immediate treatment, the infection can burrow deep and spread to your joints, your heart, and the nervous system.

This is what happened to me. I have no idea when the tick bit me. It could have been when I was a

We pause on Memorial Day to remember those who paid the ultimate price for our freedom. Yet, many folks are surprised to discover thousands of service members died in conflicts that weren’t actually “wars.” How much do you know about our country’s undeclared wars? Find out in this short, informative quiz.

1. What makes military combat an actual war?

A: An executive order

B: A vote of Congress

C: A popular referendum

D: A petition drive

Answer: B. While the U.S. Constitution names the president commander-in-chief of the military, Article 1, Section 8 specifies that only Congress can declare war. The 1973 War Powers Resolution authorizes the president to use military force for a limited time.

2. The first undeclared war came in our nation’s earliest days. Which rival nation did it involve?

little kid or when I was in high school.

All I know is it hit me with vengeance at 18 years old. Suddenly, my body, which was used to working out 3-4 hours a day and competing in track and field, began to struggle to function in a million different ways at once.

My stomach was hurting often, and I struggled to eat. I had severe shortness of breath that an inhaler didn’t help, I was having cold/flu symptoms nearly every week, I was having to urinate over 20 times a day despite drinking very little, and I would have severe itching. There was also pain all over my body. We could barely run down one problem before anoth-

A: Great Britain

B: Germany

C: France

D: Russia

Answer: C. The “Quasi-War” from 1798 to 1800. France tipped the scales in our favor during the Revolutionary War by sending its fleet and lending us a lot of money. Spats after the French Revolution led to fighting on the high seas between the two former friends, with several hundred casualties on both sides.

3. The Marines’ Hymn famously recalls “the shores of Tripoli.” What undeclared war does that line reference?

A: The Gold Coast Incursion

B: Nicaraguan Deployment

C: The Indonesian War

D: The Barbary Pirates War

Answer: D. In the early 19th century, pirates from the Barbary States (parts of modern Libya, Algeria, Tunis and Morocco) were seizing U.S. Navy ships, taking sailors hostage, and holding them in exchange for an astronomically high ransom. Washington told the Navy, “Go get ’em.” Several dozen Americans died in the fighting.

4. America’s deadliest war was actually an undeclared conflict. What was it?

A: The Revolutionary War

B: The Civil War

C: World War II

D: The Vietnam War

Answer: B. That’s right, our nation’s bloodiest conflict wasn’t a declared war. Officially, war can only be declared by one country against another. The North didn’t recognize the Confederacy as a sovereign nation. So, Congress instead declared a state of rebellion within the seceded states. Federal documents referred to it as The War of the Rebellion.

5. The longest war in American history was undeclared. What was it?

A: The Seminole War B: The Choctaw War

D:

Answer: C. America was expanding westward in the 1800s, but the Apache tribe said, “Not on our land.” So, it fought. And fought. And fought. The fighting was so prolonged that there was rarely a 90-day stretch of peace during the 37-year era. The Apaches even fought the Confederates during the Civil War. Violence tapered off after 1886, but there were sporadic battles as late as 1924.

6. A declared war can sometimes lead to subsequent undeclared combat. That was the case after which war?

A: The War of 1812

B: The Mexican War

C: The Spanish-American War

D: World War II

Answer: C. The 1898 Spanish-American War was called “a splendid little war” because, in a conflict lasting only three months, two weeks, and four days, the U.S. captured Cuba, Puerto Rico and the Philippines. Many Filipinos wanted self-government. Washington disagreed and sent 126,000 troops there. A particularly savage war ensued. Three years later, more than 4,200 Americans and perhaps 20,000 Filipino combatants were dead, with thousands more wounded.

7. At times, the United States has joined with other countries in fighting an undeclared war. This one was a debacle.

A: The 1855-1857 Walker Expedition

B: The 1916-1917 Pancho Villa Expedition

C: The 1916-1924 Dominican Republic Occupation

C: The Apache War

The Arapaho War

SPORTS Bandon boys win another state golf title

JOHN GUNTHER For The World

For the third year in a row, Bandon’s boys have claimed the Class 3A/2A/1A state golf title. This time, Bandon had the individual champion, too.

The Tigers finished the state tournament at Tokatee Golf Club near Blue River on Tuesday with a two-day total of 621, which is 21 over par. Bandon was 31 strokes better than runner-up Banks. Valley Catholic was third (671) and East Linn Christian fourth (683).

Bandon’s Sevie Quinn took medalist honors. Quinn shot a 2-under 70 on Tuesday to go with his 71 on Monday for a two-day total of 3-under, which was one shot better than twotime defending champion Davis Hartwell of Crosspoint Christian.

Braedon Millhouser, the son of Bandon coach Scott Millhouser, was fifth at 6-over par after shooting a 74 on Tuesday. Jackson Simonds was part of a three-way tie for seventh another two shots behind Millhouser. Simonds shot a 76 both days.

Bandon’s fourth player, Trask Wehner, matched his 89 from Monday with the same score Tuesday and finished in a tie for 35th. Bandon’s Raleigh Kraynik shot a 100 on Tuesday, improving his score by six shots.

The first four players for each team each day count toward the team score.

All five Bandon players are eligible to return next year. Quinn and MIllhouser are juniors, Simonds and Wehner are sophomores and Kraynik is a freshman.

“I’m proud of the boys,” Scott Millhouser said. “We had tough competition this year with Banks. They were putting up their best fight to get us. The boys today just put it to another level and had a lot of fun out there.

“We told the boys whoever has the most fun is going to win. Don’t let the pressure of trying to win a state title effect you.”

Millhouser said the Tigers

“were a little tense” on Monday.

“We maybe let our high expectations get to us,” he said. “WE didn’t play the best. We just had to remind the boys to have fun and support each other. It was nice to see the team bond a little bit more and push each other in a positive way.”

For Quinn, winning the individual title was great after

coming up just short against Hartwell the past few years, including finishing a stroke behind the Crosspoint Christian senior last year.

“It’s super exciting,” he said.

“Me and Davis have been having battles in the state championship for a couple years and it’s fun to finally beat him.”

Quinn said his ball striking was much better on Tuesday.

“And course management was big — eliminating the big numbers,” he said.

Quinn didn’t know he had won until he finished on 18. The last time he saw a scoreboard was when he had five holes to go and Hartwell had one remaining. At that point they were tied.

Quinn had a single birdie over the final five holes, on the par-5 16th hole. For the day he had five birdies and three bogeys.

Quinn tied for third when he was a freshman and Hartwell was winning his first title. The two are familiar foes, having grown up playing against each other in various junior events around the state.

“We’ve played junior golf against each other for probably 10 years,” Quinn said.

Winning the high school title was a thrill.

“It’s super exciting,” Quinn said.

Quinn was equally excited about Bandon winning the team title again.

“It’s awesome,” he said. “We had a bit of a rough first day, but the team rallied back together

today and played much better.

“To get the job done three years in a row is pretty cool.”

Now the Tigers can take aim at a fourth straight crown.

“I’m super excited,” Quinn said. “We should be even better.”

The last school to win three in a row at the smallest classification was Oregon Episcopal, which won the three following Bandon’s first state title in 2018. Cascade Christian had won the three before Bandon’s first title and St. Mary’s of Medford won the four before Cascade Christian’s run.

CLASS 4A BOYS: Marshfield rallied to earn the fourth-place trophy at Emerald Valley Golf Club, improving its team score by 34 shots from Monday to Tuesday.

Marist Catholic easily captured the title with a two-day score of 633. Pendleton was second (662) and Cascade third (681).

Marshfield shot a 361 on Monday and improved to 327 on Tuesday to finish at 688, 11 shots better than fifth-place St. Helens.

Xanh Quang of Seaside won the title by three shots over Elias Long of Baker/Powder Valley, finishing at 150.

All of Marshfield’s golfers finished outside the top 10, but the top four all had big improvements.

Enoch Niblett improved from 89 to 78 and finished 12th at 167. Lane Olsen moved up from 87 to 84 and finished in a tie for

17th at 171. Carson Chandler improved 13 shots, from 93 to 80, and finished 20th at 173.

Mason Aurdahl improved nine shots from 94 to 85 and finished in a tie for 25th at 179.

Only Aiden Griffin didn’t improve from Marshfield, shooting a 94 after his 92 on Monday. He was part of a tie for 37th.

CLASS 4A/3A/2A/1A GIRLS: North Bend came up one spot short of a trophy in the team race at Eagle Crest Resort in Redmond, finishing fifth on Tuesday.

The Bulldogs improved their team score from 409 to 400 but finished 30 shots behind fourthplace finisher Catlin Gabel. Salem Academy ran away with the team title, shooting a two-day total of 659. Henley was second (718), followed by St. Mary’s of Medford (743) and Catlin Gabel (779). North Bend (809) was second among both Class 4A schools and public schools in the event.

Individually, Salem Academy’s Chloe Johnston won medalist honors with a two-day total of 150, shooting 75 both days. Vishaka Priyan of Catlin Gabel was second (151).

North Bend’s Addyson Garrett finished 23rd (196), improving her score by 10 strokes from Monday. Emily Heaton was part of a tie for 24th (197) and Benelli Gordon finished in a tie for 27th (198). Mazzie Neal finished 48th (224) and Lola Davidson 56th (234).

Baseball Softball: Bobcats, Cruisers to host playoff games

The Myrtle Point baseball team and Powers softball team will host games in the Class 2A/1A playoffs next week after winning their leagues.

Myrtle Point is the No. 5 seed to the baseball playoffs and will host a second-round game Wednesday against the winner of a Monday contest between Sherman and Toledo, Myrtle Point’s league rival.

If the Bobcats win Wednesday they advance to Friday’s quarterfinals.

Powers, meanwhile, will start the playoffs in the first round on Monday at home against the combined Riddle/Days Creek squad. First pitch is scheduled for noon.

Powers was perfect in league play, but three late nonleague losses dropped the Cruisers to the No. 11 seed overall. The top 10 seeds get first-round byes.

If Powers wins Monday, the Cruisers will be on the road Wednesday against the combined Union/ Cove team. That squad is seeded sixth for the playoffs.

Admission to first-round games is $10 for adults and $6 for students.

In Class 4A, North Bend’s baseball team clinched a playoff spot by sweeping its series against Cottage Grove to finish the Sky-Em League season in third place.

The Bulldogs were guaranteed a playoff berth because they are one of the top four third-place teams in the classification. They will be on the road in the first round on Tuesday against Scappoose, the No. 2 seed. The winner plays La Grande or Stayton on Friday.

The Bulldogs beat Cottage Grove 12-0, 16-0 and 13-3 to finish 6-6 in league play.

Marshfield lost its series to Junction City 12-2, 6-4 and 6-3 and finished 2-10 in league. The Pirates did have a special final day with a tribute to longtime announced Ed Keim before the first game of the doubleheader with the Tigers.

North Bend beat the Lions 17-2, 21-13 and 10-8 to finish league with a 6-6 record.

Marshfield lost all three of its games to Junction City, 13-2, 14-0 and 13-10, and finished 1-11 in league play.

Phoenix.

Henthorn, who won the cross country state title in the fall, will be the favorite in the 3,000 meters this week in Eugene and won that race in 9:51.40. She bounced back Saturday to also win the 1,500 in 4:39.59. Henthorn also ran the 400 meters to score points for the team, finishing fifth in a personal best 1:03.89.

Millet, meanwhile, won the 300 hurdles in 47.37, a season best. She also was second in the 100 hurdles, a new event, in 16.45, a new best.

In the pole vault, Millet finished second to Rogue River’s Reagan Alden. Both cleared 10 feet, 2 inches but Alden won based on fewer misses.

Coquille’s boys had a single state qualifier for the fourth straight year. This time it was freshman Xavier Trujillo, who was second in the 3,000 meters in 9:31.22. Trujillo finished third in the 1,500 in 4:24.25.

Brookings-Harbor’s Kaiya Evans won the girls 100 (12.47) and 200 (25.53). Patrick Hatch was second in the boys javelin (161-9) and discus (146-2) for the Bruins. They were the school’s only two athletes to finish in the top two in events

By Mary Schamehorn As I See It

I found these neat pictures of one of the early Blessings of the Fleet, which took place on Memorial Day 36 years ago in 1990. The tradition continues today, with the Blessing of the Fleet and Military to be held Monday, May 26, at 10 a.m. at the Port’s Riverwalk Amphitheater, near the glass enclosed shelter.

The first picture features father Bill Karath, Pastor Tom Hutton and the Reverend Bill Bray as they bless the fleet with boats preparing to leave the harbor with floral displays on board, which are being thrown overboard as they reach the mouth of the river (second photo). Boats pictured include Mel Erdman’s Kelori, the Lady Eileen out of Coos Bay and the Coast Guard cutter that was stationed here that summer.

4696, or can be brought to the event in person. Following the ceremony, local clergy will cast flowers and wreaths into the mouth of the river, while reading aloud the names of those who were lost at sea. Donations of flowers, bouquets or wreaths are greatly appreciated and can be brought to the event.

come housing complex. As I am working on my column, firefighters are still on scene, so I have no idea as to the extent of the damage or the loss by the residents. This is a tragedy on so many levels, as depending on how many people are displaced, it will be difficult for them to find homes.

UPDATE I saw on the Bandon Police page that 10 people had been displaced by the fire, and were being assisted by the Red Cross.

This is just one more reason the city must proceed with updating its zoning codes to allow more residential development and do what it can to jump start the 72-units of workforce housing to be built in a joint venture between the school district and the city.

Hosted by members of the Bandon Ministerial Alliance Association, this year’s event honors those who have been lost at sea, those who make their living on the ocean, and all the active military members and veterans. Community members are invited to submit names of loved ones to be included in the ceremony. Names can be sent in advance by email to unity@unityofbandon. org, by phone at 541-347-

I am sharing this neat picture of the late Brian Vick, who arrived in Bandon in the late ‘70s and opened his Neat Old Stuff antique shop in the building east of Bandon Baking Company on Second Street. Brian went on to become an active member of the Bandon Rotary, served 12 years on the Southern Coos Hospital board of directors, a term as mayor and several terms on the city council. He died of pancreatic cancer, and is being remembered with a beautiful wood bench in front of his former Neat Old Stuff shop in the Continuum Center, with a plaque honoring his years

The big news this week, of course, is the resignation of Bandon’s school superintendent Shauna Schmerer, school board members Angela Cardas and Briana Hutchens, and nine other district employ-

has not publicly announced where she will be going, out of fear, one person said, of unfair negative publicity that might be shared in her new community.

Hutchens and Cardas have blamed the teachers’ union and community members “for what they called negativity, hostility and

of service to Bandon.

As I was writing my column Sunday night, a Facebook video showed big flames shooting from several of the buildings at Harvard Street Apartments, Bandon’s largest low-in-

ees including administrative assistant Connie Roberts and Laureen Robertson, an employee of the high school office.

According to an article from OPB, “the wave of resignations followed a turbulent year in Bandon, that included teacher departures, complaints against leadership, an ongoing third-party investigation and escalating tensions between administrators, the teachers’ union and some community members,” referring to the group known as Bandon Schools Deserve Better (BSDB).

Schmerer submitted her 60-day resignation, after serving as superintendent for five years. She is expected to work until July 7, and

toxicity in the district.”

Chico Robinson, local union representative, is quoted as saying it was disappointing to hear “continued attacks on the union and the people in the community who simply spoke up and advocated for accountability and transparency.”

The board is seeking applicants to fill the two vacant board positions,who will be appointed at the June 8 meeting to serve until June 2027. Troy Russell, one of the two newest members of the board, was appointed board chair after long-time member A.J. Kimball declined the position.

“We strongly urge community members who are interested in helping move the district forward to consider applying for these open positions,” said BSDB spokesman Rebecca Lynn. “This is an important opportunity for thoughtful, collaborative leadership focused on students and the future of our schools.”

To apply for the board, you much be a registered voter living within the Bandon School District, for at least one year at the time of appointment. For more information or to apply, contact Connie Roberts in the district office.

The Bandon High School band, under Dave Weston’s, leadership continues to excel in statewide competition. They finished second of all 1A, 2A bands in the state during the championships held in Corvallis last week. A Facebook post congratulated the group for

their ‘hard work, dedication and countless hours of practice that has made the community proud.

“The band has always been an important part of BHS, representing the tradition, pride and sprit of our students and community.”

A local real estate agent called my attention to an interesting new sales concept, known as the “Port Orford Parade of Homes” event. It took place Friday, May 22, when a multi-agency open house allowed the public to tour 15 homes in Port Orford. Beach Loop Realty and others had interactive maps available through a QR code.

The scanner has had reports of several wrecks around Bandon in the past week. On May 14 at 4:10 p.m., there was a two-vehicle accident at Highway 101 and 20th street. Dispatch said: “At this point they are screaming at each other, but have since disengaged. Bandon Fire is clearing. This is a non-injury accident, and the Bandon Police Department is on the scene.”

On May 16, at 9:25 a.m., Bandon Fire reports that a vehicle is in the ditch south of Bandon at milepost 284. female said she isn’t injured but she can’t get out. Bandon Fire said to keep the ambulance en route as the patient “definitely” needed to be checked out. She was extricated and transported by ambulance.

On May 12 about 8:40 p.m., Highway 101 south near Sixes Airport Road was closed because of a house fire, which affected all lanes of traffic. A friend posted that while no one was injured the people lost all their possessions.

On May 10, at approximately 7:50 p.m., a sheriff’s deputy was dispatched to a report of a single vehicle

2. The driver, William Hackworth, 46, was taken to Bay Area Hospital for medical treatment. As a result of an investigation, he was to be referred to the district attorney’s office on charges of reckless driving and DUII.

MarLo Dance has just finished another very successful show, with sold out crowds absolutely loving Peter Pan. I love it when people new to the community are blown away by the professionalism of the dancers, ranging in age from little tykes to grandmothers, and the fact that a town our size has a theater like the Sprague. This is the third time Maria Merriam and her assistants have brought us Peter Pan, with the first one in 2010 and the second one in 2016. And each one is different in so many wonderful ways. I don’t think I have ever missed a MarLo production!

I’ve leaned that Stillwater Natives Nursery is collaborating with Friends of Bandon Parks & Recreation to offer high school students a hands-on work experience for which they earn a school credit. These internships run one semester and are for students 16 or older. Applications are being accepted at Stillwater Natives now at www.stillwaternativesnursery.com for the 2026 fall season. Darcy Grahek, nursery owner, will help students gain experience with native plant identification, propagation, growing from seeds and organic horticulture.

er one would get worse. All while I tried to compete on the track team and graduate from high school. In his song “Monster,” Singer/songwriter Jesse Ruben, a Lyme warrior himself, puts words to what it’s like to have this infection: “There’s a monster in my body, and it’s livin’ in my limbs, and it’s tearing through my system like a hurricane wind that won’t stop.”

That’s exactly how it felt, but because we didn’t know what was wrong with me and we hoped simple answers would come, I continued with my college plans. It wasn’t till an appointment a week before I left for college that a doctor finally suggested I might have Lyme disease. She had a do-it-at-home kit from a lab called “DNA Connections” that she gave me. I was really lucky in this respect—she had a good test for Lyme. A lot of people aren’t that lucky. Many people are tested for Lyme disease and then told they don’t have it when they get a negative “western blot” (blood test). But the fact is that the most common CDC- recommended tests ordered by doctors are extremely inaccurate, missing up to 78% of cases! To truly

know whether you have Lyme disease, you must be tested by specialized labs.

Unfortunately, getting diagnosed was just the beginning of my story. I thought it would be a rather short chapter of my book, too. I figured now that we knew what the problem was, we could fix it, and I would get on with college life. I was very wrong, though.

When a Lyme infection has buried itself in your body for years, there’s no simple answer.

Currently, there is no cure for chronic Lyme disease. There are, however, many wonderful stories of patients reaching remission and leading fairly healthy lives. The problem is that there is no single, well-documented treatment that works effectively for the majority of people.

A huge part of why Lyme doesn’t have a cure or a clear treatment plan is that there’s almost no research funding. For example, Lyme is one of the most common infectious diseases in the US, with fifteen times more diagnoses than new HIV infections. Yet, HIV/AIDS funding by the NIH is roughly 50-100 times more than Lyme.

Compared with other vector-borne infectious diseases, funding for Lyme disease remains very low. Lyme disease research has been allocated about $63 per patient, while West Nile Virus receives

“Adopting an artwork is more preservation focused. So, people have donated money to the museum to have a piece reframed or to fix the matting on the framing. Any sort of preservation or process that needs to be done to the artwork.”

Some of the key pieces in the exhibit were done by, or acquired by, passionate folks who have donated years of their time to the museum and its preservation efforts. Some of them are founding artists from the museum’s earliest days back when the Coos Artists League was formed in 1950. Artists like Maggie Karl, Dorothy Vaughn, and Mabel Hansen were pioneers who led that group’s growth into the Coos Art Museum, which opened in the historic Carnegie Library in 1966.

“We went through our catalogue and picked out pieces that were by or connected to the people that galleries in the museum are named after,” said Heins. “So, our main gallery downstairs is the Maggie Karl Gallery, who was very influential in getting the museum into this building. Same thing with Mabel Hansen and Dorothy Vaughn… Just the people that we know cared about this museum and cared about this collection.”

Del Smith is another of those important figures. She served as the collection manager for over 40 years ahead of retiring last year, and played a huge role in the acquisition and preservation of the perma-

about $13,600 per patient, and Malaria receives $118,823 per patient.

All of these factors together are how I ended up at a support group for Lyme patients like me. It’s called Generation Lyme. We meet several days a week on Zoom and spend time together sharing what is going on in our week, supporting each other, and asking/answering Lyme treatment questions.

I would change every piece of my Lyme story if I could, except the part where I met some of my best friends through these meetups. One defining characteristic of our meetups is the variety of states represented.

In fact, Lyme disease has been found in all 50 states! It is not just an East Coast infection, as it’s often thought of, even here in southern Oregon, Lyme is present. But there are some steps you can take to reduce your risk of a tick bite when you go out in nature:

• Wear light-colored clothing: long pants and a long-sleeve shirt. Tuck your pant legs into socks. Wear a hat.

• Always apply tick repellent. Lemon eucalyptus and rose geranium oils repel ticks.

There are several all-natural sprays available. Products with DEET are also effective.

• Products containing Permethrin may

“[Smith] is the reason why we have such an impressive collection of artwork, and why it is organized so well,” said Heins.

“It a big behind-the-scenes reason why this collection is so awesome… The thing that is always so specially about this community is how much everyone works together, and everything is so community oriented. I think this collection is kind of a manifestation of one aspect of that really strong community spirit.”

The exhibit is a testament to the decades-long commitment local artists and enthusiasts have made to platforming and preserving the work of artists who have called the South Coast home. Like a placard in the exhibit reads: “A museum does not endure by accident. It survives because people choose, again and again, to care for it.” And the building itself plays a massive part in that.

“We are excited to take this building into its next 90 years… We are hoping to treat this building as a work of art,” said Heins. “Art-deco is an very awesome and specific style, so we want to treat this building as an artifact and work of art in and of itself, and doing any building projects that honor that.” The CAM

When I got sick with Lyme Disease, I would never have imagined that 9 years later I would still be waking up having to fight it every day. But the one thing it hasn’t taken from me yet is the ability to write.

That is why this May, which is Lyme Disease Awareness Month, I am sharing this information with you. We live in so much beautiful nature that should rightfully be explored! But it’s important to practice tick safety to reduce your risk of infection and to be educated about Lyme disease in case you have been exposed. Enjoy nature and be safe!

Retrospective will run through February, 2027.

Also recently opened upstairs is a show by Tristan Perrotti. The Portland-based artist is currently the artist-in-residence at Southwestern Oregon Community College and acting as an adjunct professor in their art department.

Perrotti has been a big presence at CAM in recent times, displaying pieces in multiple shows and acting as a juror for both the Maritime and Visions shows. His presence in the gallery represents a continuous and growing relationship between the museum and college.

Tristan’s expressionist portraiture imbues classical imagery with a sense of movement and vibrancy through the use of form-bending lines and abstractions. The subjects of his works often feel like they are leaving behind an echo of the moments leading up to and just after being captured on the canvas. His exhibit runs through July 25.

In the hallway between these two shows is a display that reflects the museum’s commitment to the communal and personal connections at the museum. One of the artists from their recent Visions exhibit, a showcase of art from local youth, Ha-

li’aka Ledesma-Locklear displays her mixed-media output, which is prolific for an artist of just 18. Down the hall is a small collection of work by Dorothy Paul, grandmother to the museum’s current collections manager, Rachel. Paul, who discovered her love of painting later in life, has a number of charming portraits of animals and flowers displayed in a touching tribute to art’s personal connections.

“It’s the Claire Worrel Community Gallery,” said Heins. “We’re always looking to activate more of the wall space that’s in the museum, and give people more art to explore when they come to visit... These are just cool artists that are in our local community; we just wanted to put beautiful things on the wall.” Also running now is the annual Maritime exhibit, sourced mainly from artists here on the South Coast. Themed for the first time, “Surge” is the anchoring aesthetic of all of the pieces this year. Some stand outs include Lara Webster’s (Florence) intricate pointillist scenes, and Pat Snyder’s (Coos Bay) vibrant linocuts. The Maritime Art Exhibition for 2026 ends July 12.
