“We’re having some unaccounted for water, meaning the water our water meters say is being produced, but, what we bill our customers at their individual water meters (doesn’t match),” Wesely told the Sun . “That’s a problem we’re trying to solve.”Wesley said that the equipment has already helped pinpoint a couple of leaks that had evidence of extra water flow at ground level but were difficult to identify underground.

PCJWSA recently acquired new acoustic water leak detection equipment that they say will help them find underground leaks and lower their un accounted for water numbers. The leak detection program is expected to take a year to complete. website for information regarding updates regarding Covid-19, along with information about the of our weekly worship services.

The Forecast is for: SUN ODFW announced on Aug. 16 there will be upcoming changes to the Central Coast Subarea of the Pacific halibut sport fishery. Beginning Sept. 1, the summer all-depth halibut season for the Central Coast Subarea (Cape Falcon to Humbug Mountain) will be open daily (seven days/week) at all depths until the quota is reached or Oct. 31 with a two fish daily bag limit. The annual limit remans six halibut. With a little more than 140,000 pounds remaining in this subarea (all-depth and nearshore combined), ODFW says daily fishing at any depth gives anglers more opportunity to harvest the halibut allocation.TheSept. 1 halibut start date coincides with the recreational all-depth bottomfish fishery meaning anglers can retain all-depth halibut and regular bottomfish (not restricted to longleader gear) on the same trip. In addition, ODFW is changing the Southern Oregon Subarea (Humbug Mountain to California border). In that area, beginning Sept. 1, anglers may retain two halibut per day; the annual limit remains six fish. Season open dates remain unchanged (open daily through Oct. 31 or until quota met).For a map of the subareas, visit

Class,

The newly acquired equipment uses a sensitive microphone that detects water leaks in underground piping and can pinpoint the leaks by the intensity of the sound. With the equipment, PCJWSA will begin a proactive leak detection program in their service area.

By CHELSEA YARNELL for the Sun P acific City Joint WaterSanitary Authority’s recent acquisition of new acoustic water leak detection equipment is expected to help the Authority pinpoint leaks that have, thus far, gone undetected. “It is some really nice equipment,” PCJSWA Authority Manager John Wesely told his Board of Directors at the agency’s Aug. 9 business meeting. “Staff have all been trained on the use of it. Leak detection is as much art as it is science, so it does take some experience and practice to get proficient at it.”

The Survey of Oregon Lakes covers six indicators. The first five align with NLA sampling: trophic state, biological, chemical, physical and contact recreation. These categories allow direct comparisons to the results observed at national and regional scales. The sixth indicator is toxics, which is being reported for the first time in Oregon due to the additional toxics monitoring funding.

The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality released the 2017 Survey of Oregon Lakes on Aug. 12, a statewide evaluation of the ecological condition of lakes and reservoirs from samples collected in 2017. Oregon’s report is part of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s overarching National Lakes Assessment , and comes during National Water Quality Month. It also represents the first-ever statewide dataset on toxics within Oregon’s lakes resources.Results indicate the ecological condition of Oregon’s lakes is largely good, especially when compared to that observed nationally. Most lakes and reservoirs are in good condition for biological communities, like insects and zooplankton. In addition, DEQ found toxic compounds rarely exceed human health or aquatic life criteria. Overall, the majority of Oregon’s lakes are of high recreational value. Because the sample sizes from earlier NLAs (30 sites in 2007 and 29 sites in 2012) were so small, DEQ was previously unable to make statewide assessments of lake conditions with confidence. However, in 2017, the agency developed a unique survey when it combined funding from the state and EPA to collect samples simultaneously for its Biomonitoring Program, which oversees sampling for the NLA, and its Toxics Monitoring Program. This provided the opportunity to maximize resources and boost the sample size from 29 to 49 randomly selected lakes. Four additional lakes, or “targeted lakes,” were identified for sampling based on suggestions from DEQ Water Quality staff and the Oregon Lakes Association. They are Lake Abert, Barney Reservoir, Hagg Lake and Woahink Lake. This brings the total of lakes and reservoirs evaluated to 53. The Survey lists the results for the targeted lakes in Appendix“Oregon’sA. lakes are special places, and this assessment provides a great deal of solid information about their environmental health,” said DEQ’s Laboratory Administrator Lori Pillsbury. “The results will inform how we continue to protect our lakes, and make improvements where needed.” There were areas of concern in some Oregon lakes and reservoirs. Excess nutrients were observed as the most widespread indicator of poor conditions. For example, while 74% of Oregon lakes were estimated to be in good condition with regard to phosphorous levels, 21%, or approximately 1,000 lakes, were estimated to be in poor condition. Additionally, about 60% of the state’s lakes were estimated to be in good condition with regard to nitrogen, while about 13%, or approximately 600 lakes, were estimated to be in poor condition. Excess nutrients frequently come via run-off from homes, developed areas and agriculture, as well as from soil erosion and decaying organic material. In addition, nitrogen may be added from burned fossil fuels in the atmosphere.

PCJWSA built and maintains this trail system that is part of their recreation and public purpose lease agreement with BLM.

As a part of that lease, some of the obligations PCJWSA committed to include controlling invasive species on the land, installing an emergency evacuation area at the top of the ridge — an area to remotely control PCJWSA operations in the event of an emergency, install and maintain public hiking trails, and create water storage through a water reservoir.

“I would have a hard time believing that BLM, with how important those wells are to the community, would do anything to interfere with our use of those wells or continue to keep them were they’re at,” WeselyCarltonsaid.asked if BLM would take the property back should the Autority not meet its obligations under the lease.

All costs for lease obligations are required to come from alternative sources outside of PCJWSA operational revenue streams such as grants or community contributions.

“I think there was some thought, 10-12 years ago, that it was desirable to prevent a developer from getting their hands on this property because there was concern about the impact that might have on our wells,” Wesely said. “So, we can approach BLM to purchase [back] that property outright. I think it would be cheaper than what a lot of our obligations areWeselyhere.” did however note that at the end of the 25-year lease, he believes there’s a chance that the BLM would patent and lease all 80 acres to PCJWSA.

Wesely recounted that this lease was a decision by the Board many years ago.

“But, again, what would we do with it,” he asked the Board. “Do we have a desire to be a land owner and to have to manage that property and to maintain that property for perpetuity? I have to question if something like this…warrants our time, energy, and dollars.”Itwas suggested that the Board reach out to the Tillamook County Board of Commissioners to see if they would be interested in taking over the lease of the land as it will be near their Kiwanda Corridor Project.Board Director Cameron Gogas opinioned that he would like to see the property stay with“I’dPCJWSA.liketosee if it can get revised to where it’s manageable,” he said. “I don’t really want to see it go back.” “This property is meant for community benefit, whether to provide and maintain infrastructure to water and wastewater, or to provide recreation opportunity. It would be a community asset,” Wesely told the Sun. “If there are folks who are interested in helping us maintain the property through trail maintenance or invasive species control, we would welcome community support in any extension that it may be offered.”

The NLA is a collaboration between the EPA and state, tribal and local partners to monitor and assess the status and trends of ecological conditions in the nation’s lakes and reservoirs.

The Pacific City Joint Water-Sanitary Authority currently leases nearly 80 acres of property directly north of their wastewater plant from the Bureau of Land Management under a Recreation & Public Purpose lease. But, what will become of it? The acreage parallels Cape Kiwanda Drive and continues north nearly to the edge of town. On the property are three drinking water“We’vewells.got some pretty big obligations that we made as part of this lease, and I’ve been doing the best I can to manage them,” Wesely said to the Board of Directors at their Aug. 9 business meeting. “We may want to revisit some of the obligations that we’ve made.”

“One of the obligations was that we would delineate a 100-foot setback from our well space with a fence; that was recently done only a couple months ago,” Wesely told the Sun. “Phase One of the trail system is also done and in place. We committed to providing a Phase Two portion that would provide another trail system up on the ridge that’s connected to what’s already established.”

“I’m concerned that these costs are not a part of our core mission of being a water/ sewer utility,” Director Sean Carlton said. “Given that we’re going to have some expensive projects coming up in the next 20 years, it’s difficult for me to think about funneling money away from those and into this recreation parcel.”

Wesely told the Board that there is an existing right-of-way on the land where the wells are located, regardless of their ownership of the property.

Samples are currently being collected for Oregon’s contribution to the NLA through DEQ’s Biomonitoring Program. You can find the 2017 Survey of Oregon Lakes at ordeq. org/2017ORLakesSurvey.

he Nestucca River is amongst several coastal river basins (Nehalem, Tillamook, Nestucca, Siletz, Yaquina, Beaver Creek, Alsea, Umpqua, Coos) that will be open to some wild coho harvest this year, beginning as early as Sept. 10.For the area’s latest fishing report, and for regulations on fall coastal salmon fishing for both wild coho and wild Chinook, moreimprovedwhenthisinafishing-report/northwest-zone.myodfw.com/recreation-report/visitThiswillbethesecondyearinrowofsomewildcohoretentioncoastalrivers.Cohoreturningyearwenttosealastyear,oceanconditionshadconsiderably,soevenbasinsareopenthisyear—a definite improvement from 2016-2020 when all wild coho retention was closed in coastal rivers. This year’s wild coho abundance is still less than the high returns seen from 20082014 so not all basins are open for retention.

All open northwest zone rivers will have a season bag limit of one wild adult coho from that basin and under permanent rules, no more than five wild adult coho salmon may be taken in aggregate (from all southwest and northwest waterbodies open) per year.

“We were pretty lucky to have such a diverse group of people as board members,” Director Cameron Gogas said. “Everybody saw something different to bring to the table for the community. Carolyn has definitely done that through her years of service. She’s such a wealth of knowledge and will truly be missed.” “Thank you for all your effort and time on the board,” Director Sean Carlton said. “I think she’s done a fantastic job.”

By CHELSEA more than a decade Pacific City Joint Authority Board Chair Carolyn McVicker has resigned from her position. She cited health reasons for her departure. In her absence, Board Director Tom Donohue read from McVicker’s Aug. 9 letter. It stated: “This decision has not been easy, and I apologize to the board for my recent absences at meetings. I apologize to the community for not being able to complete my term. However, I know there are other qualified voters who have the energy and education to step up to the post. I would like to thank my colleagues and PCJWSA staff, past and present, for the many years of service and the collaborative projects that have served our community so well. I am so very proud of the work that has been done.” Board members wished their best to Carolyn.“Ialways knew where Carolyn’s heart was in our community, occasionally, we would disagree, but the bottom line is anything that she did was always for the community,” Donohue said. “I appreciate those efforts and I thank her.”

NESTUCCA VALLEY SCHOOL DISTRICT administrators are readying to welcome students back for the 2022-23 school year. Above, l-r, are Ursula McVittle, human resources and food service administrator, Chad Holloway, administrator of facilities and alternative education, and Misty Wharton, Nestucca Valley School District superintendant.

When the Nestucca Valley School District opens its doors to students for the 2022-23 school year on Sept. 6, it will be with a sense of optimism that hasn’t been so evident in the last 2 ½ years as the district has struggled with shutdowns and COVID outbreaks and the inevitable costs to its educational programs.“I’msuper excited,” NVSD Superintendent Misty Wharton told the Sun on Aug. 24. “It has been a long and laborious 2 ½ years and this is probably the most positive and energized I have felt since COVID hit about how our kids’ education is going to look this year (and) how our staff is going to be able to do the job they were trained to do in the way they were trained to doInit.”a world that at least seems to be coming out of the pandemic — especially when it comes down to lockdowns and closures — Wharton is excited about what the school can offer as the world embraces its new “(We’llnormal.beable to) basically run our facilities in the way they were designed to be run and provide all those opportunities to kids right along with it,” she said. “It just seems like the last 2 ½ years no matter how hard you worked to complete a puzzle there was always a few pieces you had to hold out because you were told you had to. But it feels like now, we get to drive forward with the whole puzzle in place.”

ENROLLMENT ON THE RISE With enrollment on the rise, Wharton said she’s glad the new elementary school campus was designed in such a way classrooms could be added.

With a mix of new and old instructors, she said the district is taking measures to maximize that diversity of experience. “I think we’re lucky in that we do have veterans and new staff, and they both have a lot to learn from each other,” Wharton said. We try and create teaching teams where there’s a sampling of both so that your new teachers are successful, and your older teachers are learning some of the newer things that college graduates have learned.”

“I think there’s going to be pretty substantial growth,” she said. “I think the pandemic taught people they could work from home so why not work where you want to live.”

Like so many businesses and institutions, one of the hurdles in getting ready for students has been staffing. Wharton noted that significant numbers of staff have or will retire and that has put additional pressure on the hiring process. That said, she said the district is now almost fully staffed with a full slate of teachers onboard. “(We) have a lot of new teachers, young teachers, some of whom were actually graduates of Nestucca,” Wharton said. “It’s fun to see them come back.”

“I think when we’re establishing our new

As students and their parents march towards the school’s opening, they can expect a number of things in the coming academic year — including a low studentto-teacher ratio. “As a school district, we’ve been able to hold the student-to-teacher ratio below 1:22, which is unheard of in a lot of school districts, and the high school has actually got a lower student-teacher ratio than the K-8,” Wharton said. “In the high school, you have to make sure you have the right amount of offerings. It’s created a lower ratio, which is great. Our graduation rate was 98% last year, and we’re on track to do that again. That’s the ultimate goal of all of our kids, and we’re meeting that goal.” The school is also planning on putting a focus on both work-life balance and on social/emotional skills.

Nestucca’s K-12 expansion earns top honors from DJC

Photos by Tim Hirsch Nestucca Valley School District was recently awarded top honors in Oregon’s Daily Journal of Commerce magazine for its Top Projects in the Primary Education – Small division for its $25.8 K-8 expansion.Fundedby a grant passed in May 2018, the expansion was completed in August in 2021. As was previously reported in the Sun, the renovated portion features all new drywall, plumbing, windows, paint, bathrooms, ceilings, and a double-decker playground. The new wing and its more than 45,000 additional square feet includes five 6th- to 8th-grade classrooms, the school office, a media center, a computer lab, a kitchen, and a large career technology lab. Additionally, it features a 10,000 square foot gym that is built to immediate occupancy standards, which means it can be used as a shelter in the event of an emergency such as a subduction zone earthquake and any ensuing tsunami. There’s also an expansive commons area that, when combined with the gym, can accommodate 2,000. As well, a large generator can power the main infrastructure of the building in the event of a power outage. Additionally, all doors feature safety locks and, in the interest of security, visitors need to be “buzzed” in. The facility also features sight lines that provide staff a clear look at various angles, a feature that not only is a security measure against those outside but also helps to deter less than ideal student behavior.Another feature is a 60,000-gallon fire suppression water reservoir. NVSD’s project was one of 290 that were competing for the award according to Nestucca Valley School District Superintendent Misty Wharton. In its publication highlighting the awards, DJC credited the Nestucca project for not just its new academic facilities but the infrastructure that makes it all possible. They said those improvements include individual-room VRF HVAC heating and cooling units, a potable water filtration system and 60,000-gallons of underground water storage available for firefighters should the need arise. “It’s the first time this award has ever been given outside of the I-5 corridor,” NVSD Superintendent Misty Wharton told the Sun. “They’re kind of looking at this school as a model school in the state of Oregon and Washington for rural efficiency and self sufficiency in our systems (such as) fire, water, and stormwater management and generator power.”

Outside of the traditional classrooms, the school district has a number of projects moving towards completion. At the high school, the district is taking delivery on Sept. 12 of a pre-engineered metal building that will serve as a career technical educational shop. That building is expected to be erected and finished by April 2023. Also at the high school, work is continuing on a new eight-lane track. Currently asphalt base is being installed. Following that, the finish work will be applied, a multiple-pass project that will take a couple of weeks. It is expected to be finished in mid-October. At the elementary school campus, work is nearly done on a community playground with just bark chips needing to be brought in. The playground will be open to the community during non-school hours. Nearby, the district is progressing on building a batting cage, a walking/running path, and a bicycle pump track. The bicycle track is expected to have approximately 10 lanes and be designed so kids have a safe place to learn to ride bicycles. It will serve the districts upcoming all-kids bike program.

EVI WHARTON tries out the tire swing at Nestucca Valley School District’s K-8 campus. The playground is a “community playground” which the district plans to make available to the community outside of school hours. It is expected to be ready by the start of school, Sept. 6. normal, it’s going to be really important for the health and wellness of our staff and our community that there’s stronger boundaries around…work..(and)…personal time,” she said. “It would be much more functional (and) healthier. And (we’ll be) modeling that for our kids, because we don’t want them to grow up and work 70 hour weeks.” Wharton also highlighted the safety of both schools. She said the key to that is the locking exterior doors, and cameras “everywhere” that allow them to see what’s coming.

“The concept is if we’re going to teach the kids how to bicycle, we better provide them a safe place to do that, which we don’t have around here,” Wharton said. “It’s like the equivalent of a skate park for skateboarders. Bicycle kids can come and ride their bikes there. And then there’ll be paths all up and around this whole campus that will connect.”Finally, another piece that is still being worked on is a walking/running path that is now about halfway complete, but is expected to be ready in time for the school to host a cross country meet for both middle and high schoolers on Sept. 8, starting at 4 p.m. As well, there has been significant work done around a nature path that winds around the campus’s stormwater ponds.

IntoCruisin’History

F rom cruisers to classics, hot rods to Model-Ts, and trucks to motorcycles, the downtown streets of Cloverdale will once again be alive with a sense of nostalgia and a love for unique rides when the Historic Cloverdale Cruisin returns Saturday, Sept. 3, 9 a.m.-4 p.m.

“The mission for me — and I think for quite a few other people is building community,” said organizer Tom Goodwin about the event. “It all about the mutual appreciation of cars, trucks and motorcycles. And it’s really low key.”

By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun

Facing Fate with Faith, a Bible devotional written by two sisters who have each faced multiple cancer battles, shares their incredible journey of how God has strengthened them in their fight against this dreadful disease. Now Available in Paperback and Kindle Versions at www.Amazon.com Struggling

When you feel like there is nowhere to turn and you don’t know where to find the comfort in the Bible, this guide written by sisters who have experienced cancer together will point you in the right direction. Regardless of your stage or progression of disease, you can find messages intended just for you. Facing Fate with Faith reminds you that you are not alone.

THE HISTORIC CRUISIN CLOVEDALE returns to the downtown main street in Cloverdale on Saturday, Sept. 3, 9 a.m.-4 p.m. with a plethora of classic cars, motorcycles, hot rods and antique vehicles. There is no fee to showcase your vehicle or to visit the event. Those wishing to vie for prizes can register their vehicle between 9 a.m and 1 p.m.

The event, which is free to participate in and free for onlookers, too, is also continuing its tradition of serving as a fundraiser for the Nestucca Rural Fire Protection District. Past events have helped Nestucca Fire purchase needed gear such as extrication equipment. “It’s not safe what they do,” said Goodwin. “(It’s good) for us to honor them and acknowledge them and hopefully raise some money for them.”

“There’s a sharing of knowledge that I think is important,” he said. “A lot of people have done the same alterations to their cars, but they usually do it differently. So, to be able to talk about how they installed their 350 Chevrolet V8 without special custom-made engine mounts or talk about putting heat shields around the starter to make the starter last longer (is a fun and educational experience for those interested).”Theother element that makes the event unique is the sense of harkening back to an earlier, simpler time.

The Historic Cloverdale Cruisin returns Saturday, Sept. 3 with a full-day for car lovers to revel in unique rides

Though the event, which in past years has attracted as many as 100 vehicles, is organized as a casual event with no required registration, those that do sign up — for free — will be able to compete for one of five trophies. Judging will be done by Dick Warren, who is also not only paying for the trophies but providing cash prizes to go along with them. Trophies will include Best of Show ($100 cash prize), as well as four more — each with $50 cash — Best Paint, Best Interior, Best Rat Rod and Best Bike. Registration will be on the south side of Highway 101 at the vacant lot formerly occupied by Nestucca Fire’s Cloverdale station. The optional registration begins at 9 a.m. and goes until 1 p.m. with the trophy presentation slated for 2 p.m. But the event isn’t just about the competition, Goodwin emphasized.

“There’s kind of a nostalgia for old Cloverdale when the town fills up with people and with old cars,” he said. And merchants in Cloverdale are expected to open the doors with a little bit of hot rod hospitality. It’s all in an effort to show the community a little friendliness, fun and“It’scamaraderie.mostlyabout fellowship, but I do think people will wonder how did you get that big engine in that little car,” Goodwin said. For more information about the event, call 503-329-8345.

By SALLY RISSEL for the Sun In 1905, the town of Tillamook had about 900 people. It was the county seat and served emigrants and homesteaders who lived along the rivers and valleys. People came in the small coastal steamer called Sue H. Elmore that made a weekly trip down the coast from Astoria if the weather permitted. A second choice was the stagecoach over the Trask toll road, which took two days to make it from the outside unless snow blocked the way. People heard about automobiles in the Valley but thought no car could get into Tillamook County. No one seemed aware of any such thing as a gasoline engine. But, in the spring of 1905, the county’s first automobile arrived in crates on the Sue H. Elmore. It had been ordered by Rollie Watson, editor of the Tillamook Herald. Rollie had served in the Navy and came to town, tattooed up to his neck, to start his new career. He bought the Herald newspaper from his uncle, R.M. Watson. The car cost $375, and the town thought Rollie had wasted his money. The automobile was an Orient Buckboard made by Waltham Manufacturing Company in Waltham, Massachusetts. It had a tiller to steer by and an engine under the seat. It had solid rubber tires. The town electrician, Hank Crenshaw, was recruited to help put the engine together and get it started. Putting the Buckboard’s pieces together was like doing a jigsawWhenpuzzle.thecar was finished, Rollie wheeled it onto the street in front of the Herald. Rollie’s guests were invited to ride along the three-mile road to the cemetery. Rollie became a familiar sight in Tillamook among rubber-tired buggies. The automobile sparked a movement to improve the roads. The riverbeds had plenty of gravel to begin to make new roads, and the county purchased a steam roller.That same year, word spread that Ralph and Frank Wortman had driven another automobile through the mountains from the outside. They had come right through the Grand Ronde Indian Reservation and along the Nestucca Rivers to Pacific City. The automobile was now a competitor with the Sue H. Elmore and the horsedrawn stagecoach. In 1912, a passenger train made its first run into town.

EARLY PICTURES and post cards were often individually hand colored. By researching some of the original automobile colors, this early photo scene of Cloverdale was hand colored by artist Diane Colcord. The year of the cars also helps to date a picture.

THE FIRST CARS in Tillamook County arrived one by one in 1905, which sparked a movement to improve the roads.

THE FIRST AUTO in Tillamook was ordered by then editor of the Tillamook Herald, Rollie Watson, pictured above with Hank Crenshaw in front of the Tillamook Herald.

Joel La Follette, owner of Royal Treatment Fly Fishing in West Linn, is one of the programs biggest and longest standing supporters.

A Therapeutic Day

34950

By TERRY SULLIVAN for the Sun F ly fishing on the Nestucca River can be therapeutic for anyone, but on Aug. 22 it was especially meaningful for a unique group of men and women. Fourteen United States military veterans enjoyed a day on the river sponsored by Project Healing Waters Fly Fishing, a national program that supports disabled veterans who served in various branches of the U.S. Nestuccamilitary.Adventures provided a spacious launch site from its docks on the Pacific City section of the Nestucca River.

PHWFF is a national program that relies on the support of manufacturers, retailers and vendors. But volunteers from both the veterans and fishing communities are what Lorang points to as the key ingredient that keeps the program vibrant.

“Project Healing Waters Fly Fishing brought this fly fishing experience to Nestucca Adventures 12 years ago to offer this sponsored fishing experience to veterans who live outside of Oregon’s urban communities,” said Riley Gilhuly, manager of Nestucca Adventures. “While we missed the past two years due to COVID, the group and sponsors are thrilled to be back out here again.” This year veterans fished out of eight drift boats, hoping to snag a sea run of cut throat or early run of salmon. But the PHWFF program is not so much about fishing as it is about connections and community.“TheHealing Waters program provides these veterans with access to boats, fishing equipment, lures, fly fishing knowledge and expert guides,” says Jerry Lorang, the program’s Portland/Vancouver program lead. “These veterans proudly served our country to protect our freedom. Many of them experienced trauma that left both visible and invisible issues that carry life-long impacts. Getting time on the water with their colleagues and guides in a relaxing, yet focused activity works wonders for their mental well being.”

“We are in our 10th year providing equipment, knowledge and support for Project Healing Waters,” said La Follette. “Nestucca Adventures has been an essential partner during that time as their expansive docks provide an ideal setting and location for launching our boats.” Meanwhile, the owners of eight drift boats volunteered both their time and vessels to take the veterans out on the river. According to Gilhuly, La Follette’s contacts in the fishing community and Lorang’s VA connections are probably the most important piece of the program’s puzzle.

“Without Joel, Jerry and the boat owners, the Pacific City version of PHWFF would not happen,” said Gilhuly. “It is a wonderful program that is supported by caring people from both of those communities.”ProjectHealing Waters Fly Fishing does eight to 10 outings per year, according to Lorang.“Welike to say the veterans love to get together to tie flies and tell lies,” he said. “But, really, the program is all about connecting veterans with veterans so that they can bond around the normalcy of fishing. It has been a great catch for the many veterans who participate in the program.”

By CHELSEA YARNELL for the Sun Asmall group of Nestucca FFA members represented the Nestucca High School Bobcats at the Tillamook County Fair Aug. 10-13. Cody Hagerty, Ryan McKillip, Piper Armstrong, Rylee Armstrong, Carrie Woods, and Sawyer Collins competed with the guidance of their FFA advisor and science teacher Heather Brown. “(Despite) having such a small number of our students competing, we did so well,” Brown said. “It’s a lot of work to show an animal. A lot of the students bought their animals months in advance and work with them that long before Fair. I’m really proud of the students and how they pushed through even when things got tough. It’s been rough the past two years; they came back swinging for a normal fair year.”

“I graduated from Nestucca High School in ’91,” chief operations officer and co-founder of Pavilion Construction Rob Olson said. “I think it’s a good thing to support the local community. They did a lot for me when I was growing up down there…so I decided to give back. I think it’s a wonderful plan (for the kids) to…get out and do a little hard work. Hopefully the benefits have paid off for them to see the pride and effort in raising an animal, and seeing that apply not just to animals, but life as well.”
