e here at the Source Weekly have our eyes on the news, culture and events happening around all of Central Oregon in each and every issue, but once a year or so, we set our sights more specifically on the Hub City—otherwise known as Redmond. Every town in the region is experiencing big changes and big growth, and in the last few years, Redmond has been no different. The changes can be felt in the cultural scene, with venues including the High Desert Music Hall and General Duffy’s adding more live entertainment than ever to the town. It can be felt in the expanding number of awesome restaurants and watering holes, with stellar places such as the SCP Redmond Hotel, Porter Brewing, Carnaval, West Side Taco Co., Becerra’s and so many others elevating the dining scene. And the changes can certainly be felt at the government level, with the introduction of a new Redmond mayor and the majority of the City Council turning over during this election cycle.

Our Redmond Issue seeks to chart some of those changes—to highlight some A Quantum Healing Center of the fun to be had, while also diving into some of the issues that locals care about most. We hope you enjoy our spotlight on the Hub City!

Measure 9-150: Bonds to Construct New Community Recreational Facility to Expand Programs For this editorial board, the question of whether to support a new recreational facility in Redmond is an issue of equity. North of Redmond, the city of Madras has a stellar swim center. In Bend, two large public facilities now exist to help residents—including seniors and kids—get exercise and access recreation programs. Redmond is not going to get any smaller, and with income inequality making private programs and facilities out of reach for an increasing number of people, there is an urgent need to offer facilities that promote health and connection, and the current swim center is sorely lacking. Some of the most vocal opponents to this bond—which will cost the average homeowner roughly $15 per month, when combined with the operating levy also on the ballot this year—are those who already enjoy facilities similar to these, in the private resort of Eagle Crest. All residents around Redmond should have access to basic public recreation facilities that help them maintain their health—not just those living in a private development, or those who are able to drive elsewhere in Central Oregon to do so. When we build facilities close to where people live and work, it can reduce traffic congestion, too. Vote YES on Measure 9-150.

Measure 9-151: Five-Year Operating Levy for Park and Recreation Services Public facilities require public funds, plain and simple. This is an investment in Redmond’s health and wellness— things that pay dividends in countless ways throughout a community.

As mentioned above, a $15-per-month price tag for both constructing and operating a new recreation facility in Redmond is well worth the investment.

It’s high time for Redmond to invest in the health of the entire community by building this long-overdue facility. Vote YES on Measure 9-151.

Measure 9-153: Declaring a Prohibition on the Manufacture of Psilocybin Products Redmond made a mistake when it banned marijuana dispensaries in the town, and now, numerous Redmond

leaders say they regret it. In this case, the reasons for supporting psilocybin go beyond the more recreational nature of marijuana, but the reasons behind a prospective ban seem the same: A fear of the boogieman of a new type of regulated commerce. With veterans among the most vocal supporters of psilocybin programs to help manage rampant rates of PTSD, anxiety and depression, we need all options on the table. These manufacturing facilities will be closely monitored and secure, and their footprint is far smaller than marijuana processing centers.

Redmond should not vote against a program that has not even yet had a chance to prove its worth locally. What’s more, this measure specifically would ban manufacturing facilities—ironic in a town where many of its leaders profess to support commerce and job creation. Vote NO on Measure 9-153.

Measure 9-154: Declaring a TwoYear Moratorium on Psilocybin Service Centers The thinking here appears to be, let other municipalities work through the details in the first couple years of the statewide psilocybin therapy rollout to determine whether it’s going to fly and what the pitfalls might be. If this passes, it means that two years from now, Redmond residents will once again have to vote on whether they want this or not.

Why wait? Let legal, regulated business owners who want to take on the challenge of offering this service start now, and support the creation of new jobs and new industries in Redmond. We said the same thing about Deschutes County’s measure aiming to ban psilocybin service centers in the unincorporated county: This is not going to result in rampant drug use or people running naked in the streets. What it very well could do, however, is normalize a type of treatment that has been among the only breakthrough treatments for many people with PTSD, anxiety and depression. Redmond residents should be able to access that in their own town.

Vote NO on Measure 9-154.

RE: CULVER PULLS STUDENTS FROM CAMP OVER NONBINARY COUNSELOR. NEWS, 10/27

—Cian Nester

JAMIE MCLEOD-SKINNER FOR CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT 5 This November, I will be voting for a candidate who has valuable on-the-ground experience and a deep understanding of some of the biggest challenges faced by Oregonians – Jamie McLeod-Skinner.

Jamie’s extensive experience in water resources management, which includes sitting on Oregon’s Watershed Enhancement Board, means Jamie will be prepared on day one to develop policy to address Oregon’s water supply woes and the ongoing drought.

Jamie’s expertise in city and regional planning combined with her work in disaster preparedness and recovery will ensure she is prepared to address another byproduct of the climate crisis — wildfires. In 2021, while serving as interim city manager, Jamie helped secure millions of dollars in federal funding to construct affordable housing and to improve infrastructure in Talent, Ore., which

lost a third of its homes and businesses to the devastating Almeda wildfire.

Jamie’s experiences in Talent and elsewhere have also prepared her to tackle Oregon’s affordable housing crisis. For example, when she was a city councilor, Jamie worked on a workforce housing project focused on teachers. Jamie is currently working on an affordable home ownership pilot project in Oregon that will enable families to get out of generational poverty.

Finally, Jamie’s work in education (she currently serves as an elected member of the Jefferson County Education Services Board) will likely benefit Oregon’s educators, parents, and students.

To learn more about Jamie’s priorities please visit her website: jamiefororegon. com. Please join me and vote for Jamie for Oregon Congressional District 5.

VOTE BILL KUHN FOR DESCHUTES COUNTY TREASURER The Deschutes County Treasurer is a position that requires the ability to balance astute financial management with community priorities. Bill Kuhn has consistently demonstrated that unique blend over his career in his role with Bank of the Cascades and First Interstate Bank, as well as his numerous volunteer roles such as serving on the Bend Economic Development Advisory Board.

In serving as the Assistant City Manager/ Chief Operating Officer for the City of Bend for 10 years, I’ve experienced Bill’s community commitment as he was a trusted advisor and local bank partner to the city. City management valued the community partnership role and financial stewardship that he and his team provided. Bill provided consistent, strategic support even on short notice.

Further, I’ve witnessed his creativity in helping me resolve a small-business financial challenge. Bill’s business-sense and financial

experience were the keys to solving the problem in an efficient and ethical manner.

Bill has the experience to work through business challenges of all sizes yet still takes time to nurture relationships with sound financial guidance. This will be a key to his success as our next Deschutes County Treasurer. Please join me in voting for Bill Kuhn in November.

INFLATION AND CORPORATE GREED High inflation is stated as a flaw of current administration policies. A closer inspection of factors influencing inflation presents an alternative culprit – massive corporate profits. The cost of goods consists of labor and non-labor costs plus markup (profit). Corporations with market power (few competitors) can raise prices above fair market value. Justification – increase in worker wages. Data show that from 1979 to 2019, profits contributed 11% to costs and labor 60%, whereas from 2020 to 2022, profits made up 54% of costs and labor only 8%. In absolute dollars, corporate profits in 2021 were $2.62 trillion, a record high. Of 100 companies analyzed by The Guardian in Q2 of 2022, profits grew an average of 49% from two years prior while worker wages rose only 1.6%.

Many CEOs state, in earnings calls, that it is clever strategy to raise prices beyond input costs as inflation is always good for business.

The Economic Policy Institute concludes corporate profits, not worker’s wages, have contributed disproportionately to inflation.

A remedy is the Senate’s proposed Price Gouging Prevention Act of 2022. It

prohibits price gouging by enforcing a federal ban against unconscionable excessive price increases. Small businesses could earn a good faith profit, but dominant companies that exploit consumers would be held accountable.

Rather than blaming inflation exclusively on “bad” policies, examination of corporate profiteering is pivotal. Ask those running for office to explain their views on inflation and its causes. If immense corporate profits are not mentioned, one might reconsider one’s voting preferences.

The frustration I feel reading about [Supt.

Stephanie] Garber’s decision to pull the students from camp is rooted in disappointment and sadness. “That individual support plan cannot create a discriminatory environment,” should be the underlined takeaway.

I don’t understand why we’re punishing a counselor for existing as themselves instead of talking to the students about any underlying misunderstanding. Do we side with any other type of bigotry? We shouldn’t. The discomfort should have been addressed directly and allowed the boys to ask questions about their counselor; safety shouldn’t be a concern, since the nb counselor undoubtedly went through a background check when they were hired. So it is up to the school district to stand with nondiscrimination in a time when nb and trans folk are at risk of harassment.

Cranston Trial Begins

Ian Cranston is facing trial over a year after shooting and killing Barry Washington in downtown Bend

T

he trial of Ian Cranston began on Tuesday, Nov. 1, over a year after Cranston shot and killed 22-yearold Barry Washington outside of The Capitol, a bar in downtown Bend just after midnight on Sept.

19, 2021. Cranston is accused of second-degree murder, first and second-degree manslaughter, assault and unlawful use of the weapon, all of which Cranston pleaded not guilty to in a hearing on Dec. 7, 2021.

The case has sparked controversy for the original charge of manslaughter and quick release of Cranston the afternoon after the shooting, and for perceptions that the shooting was racially motivated. Cranston, who is white, shot Washington, who is Black, after he complimented Cranston’s fiancee, Allison Butler — drawing comparisons to the lynching of Emmett Till after he allegedly whistled at a white woman. District Attorney John Hummel said he’d bring bias charges if his office could obtain sufficient evidence to prove the shooting was at least partially motivated by race, but no additional charges have been filed.

A mugshot of Cranston taken after the shooting on Sept. 19, 2021.

Cranston, Butler and Cranston’s friend Tyler Smith arriving at The Capitol at 11:12 pm, just a few minutes after Washington arrived with his friend Austin Herndon. Washington first approached Butler and complimented her inside the bar around midnight. Butler told Washington she was engaged, and the encounter ended amicably with a hug.

At 12:05 am Washington left the bar and chatted with a group. Two minutes later Cranston and his group left the bar to smoke. Washington walked away from his group and again complimented Butler, telling her she’s “good looking.” Cranston told Washington that Butler was taken and told him to move along and mind his business. Washington continued speaking to Butler, and Cranston told Washington to f*** off, according to the state’s memorandum.

The argument continued to escalate and at 12:08:49 am Washington punched Cranston twice, causing him to stumble backwards. Within five seconds he was holding a previously concealed pistol to his side. Smith started fighting with Washington and then they continued arguing. Washington started moving away when Butler approached Washington while filming on her cell phone, which Washington pushed away. Washington and Smith again started struggling, at which point Cranston assumed a shooting stance and fired a shot at Washington’s torso. Cranston started rendering aid 17 seconds after firing the shot at 12:09:22, and police arrived about five minutes after, prosecutors say.

Washington was transported to St. Charles Medical Center where he died during surgery. Police charged Cranston with second-degree manslaughter and by the afternoon he was released after posting 10% of his $100,000 bail. On Sept. 30 Hummel announced in a press conference that Cranston had been arrested on a no-bail warrant for murder, manslaughter, assault and weapons charges.

“I’m confident that murder is the correct charge.

But if you commit murder intentionally, you’ve also killed someone recklessly. We sought the murder conviction in this grand jury, we’ll be seeking the murder conviction at trial. But if you do the greatest crime,

Barry Washington moved to Bend just a couple weeks before he was shot and killed downtown.

you’ve also done the lesser crimes,” Hummel told members of the press at the time.

At the trial prosecutors will have to prove Cranston intended to kill Washington and that Cranston doesn’t meet the standards for self-defense. To prove self-defense, Cranston’s attorney must show that Cranston faced an imminent threat of bodily harm.

A trial memorandum from the defense posted on Oct. 31 asks the judge to exclude testimony about other downtown police dispatches, the level of danger members of Cranston’s group reported feeling, character evidence about Cranston and a no-gun sign at The Capitol. The memorandum also asks the judge that Washington be referred to as an alleged victim rather than a victim, and introduce evidence that allegedly links Washington to gang activity. Washington’s mother La’Wanda Robinson sought a protective order claiming Washington’s phone records were outside the scope of the search warrant for the phone.

Jury selection is set to start Wednesday, Nov. 2 and opening arguments could be heard as soon as Nov. 3.

The trial will take an estimated eight to 12 days in court over the coming three weeks, with the last scheduled court date on Nov. 18.

Pedestrian Dies After Hit and Run

Police are looking for a middle-aged man with a dark SUV that struck 76-year-old Walter James Lane Oct. 27

Courtesy of BPD

Police identified a man who was struck and killed by a car Oct. 27 in what police are calling a felony hit and run. Walter James Lane, 76, was struck by an SUV around 9:30pm while crossing the roundabout on NW Newport and NW 14th Street. Bend Fire transferred Lane to St. Charles Medical Center, where he was treated for life-threatening injuries. Police revealed his name and that he’d died from his injuries on Monday, Oct. 31.

The Bend Police Department is still searching for the suspect, who is described as a white male between the ages of 40 and 60, around 6 feet tall and 180 lbs., with brown hair and a scruffy beard. At the time of the crash the suspect was driving a large dark SUV that police say could be a Lincoln Navigator, Cadillac Escalade or a Chevrolet Suburban. It was reportedly clean and appeared to be a model from the late 2000s or early 2010s.

The police are still investigating the cause and details of the crash, and more information may be made available as the investigation continues. Police are asking anyone with information about what happened to contact them through the non-emergency number at 541-693-6911.

This is the third in what amounts to several pedestrian deaths in Bend in recent months. Just last month a woman was struck and killed on the Bend Parkway, and in July police exhausted all leads in a downtown hit and run.

Bend police released this photo of the suspected vehicle in a deadly hit and run.

Camping Code Takes Shape

Bend City Council takes steps to regulate camping on City right of ways after removing its third unsafe campsite this year

By Jack Harvel

B

end took its next step in crafting a code for unmanaged homeless camps on City rights-of-way at a work session on Oct. 27. City staff gave the Bend City Council a first draft of the amended code changes on Sept. 21, and since then Council has given input during work sessions.

The latest draft establishes the time, place and manner in which campsites are allowed to exist. The proposed new code allows campsites to be evicted once it’s in the same place for a 24-hour period, after which residents could be given a 72-hour notice to leave. The camper would have to move at least a block or 600 feet and can’t return to where they were evicted from for at least 72 hours. Once a camp is removed the City may decide not to allow any camping in the area for up to 14 days.

Enforcement of these rules could be suspended if an individual doesn’t have access to shelter and is engaged in case management or services.

Under the proposed code, camps would be prohibited in residential areas or if the camp impedes into a sidewalk or road and within the Waterway Overlay Zone, which is a buffer by the Deschutes River. The new draft would also restrict camping within 1,000 feet of any homeless shelter or safe parking program, or in areas that are deemed unsafe for camping by the City Manager due to conditions like construction.

The City is also restricting camp clustering, mandating that a group of three camps may not be within 150 feet of another group of camps. Camps aren’t allowed to be larger than 144 square feet, and behaviors like trash accumulation, open flames, dumping of wastewater and connecting to utilities could result in a removal.

The City will look at its camping code policy at its work session on Nov. 2, and a first reading is expected at its Nov. 6 regular meeting. Bend removed its third campsite this year on Oct. 27, where 13 people had set up tents on Second Street. Current City code requires the city manager declare the camp is unsafe according to a rubric that measures public safety hazards.

Los organizadores tienen la esperanza que el centro recreativo propuesto en Redmond este en mejor forma con lo referente a las obligaciones destinadas en las propuestas de ley del 2008 y 2019 Por/ By Jack Harvel Traducido por/Translated by Jéssica Sánchez-Millar Los votantes rechazaron propuestas similares en 2019 y 2008. Gilman espera que la tendencia tome un giro a favor del distrito en esta ocasión gracias a una mejor organización y a la ejecución de la medida en las elecciones de noviembre en vez de las elecciones de mayo con menor participación.

“Esta vez, pienso que todos se han dado cuenta que la ciudad ha crecido bastante, que lo necesitamos,” dijo Gilman. “La última vez, el comité de acción política estaba mucho menos organizado y no tenía el entusiasmo que tiene esta vez.”

RAPRD sigue concretando la programación que traerá al establecimiento, pero está contando en tener campamentos deportivos para niños, clases de arte, clases de tecnología y hasta clases de cocina.

Las ligas de recreación también tendrán su propio espacio, actualmente se están llevando a cabo fuera de las instalaciones del distrito escolar de Redmond.

“El distrito escolar es fabuloso. Usamos sus instalaciones frecuentemente. Pero también están hasta el tope,” comentó Hammer.

Si solo se aprueba el impuesto y el bono falla, el proyecto será descartado, pero si se aprueba el bono y el impuesto falla, el distrito construirá las instalaciones y una vez que puedan asegurarán los fondos de operación. Gilman dijo que si el impuesto falla, tratarán de obtener fondos en las elecciones futuras.

RAPRD no cerraría las instalaciones de Cascade Swim Center si el bono es aprobado, y espera seguir rentando el distrito escolar de Redmond hasta que ya no sea posible. Se prevé que las nuevas instalaciones cumplirán con las necesidades de la población de Redmond durante los próximos 30 años según la tasa de crecimiento actual. Si triunfa, RAPRD espera que la construcción comience a finales de 2023 y que abran en el otoño de 2025.

l Centro recreativo Cascade Swim de Redmond abrió sus puertas en 1979, trayendo consigo una alberca techada de 25 metros para una ciudad de 6,500 personas. En los 43 años desde su apertura, Redmond ha aumentado por 30,000 habitantes y el establecimiento está luchando para satisfacer la demanda de su población creciente.

“Tenemos una piscina llena, tenemos listas de espera para las clases de natación, tenemos un equipo de natación que también tiene lista de espera, tenemos inscripciones récord para fútbol soccer y tenemos básquetbol sin un lugar para practicar,” dijo Matthew Gilman, presidente del área de parques y del distrito de recreación de Redmond (RPRD por sus siglas en inglés). “Tenemos una comunidad que en verdad no consta de ningún lugar durante la mayor parte del año para mantenerse saludable y en forma.”

El establecimiento de $48 millones tendría una alberca de 8 carriles, un río artificial, tobogán, equipo de ejercicio, canchas de básquetbol y pickleball, y una pared de escalada. El bono que financiaría el projecto agregaría $7.07 impuestos sobre la propiedad por cada $100,00 del valor estimado, $4.67 para construir el establecimiento y aparte $2.40 para financiar los costos de operación. La vivienda típica de Redmond pagaría alrededor de $15 al mes y las personas que viven en RAPRD obtendrían un 30% de descuento para utilizar las instalaciones.

“El bono es solo para la construcción del edificio y no puede utilizarse para las operaciones. Por lo tanto, el impuesto ayudara a pagar por el personal, los servicios públicos, el mantenimiento y cosas por el estilo. De esa forma, podemos traer algunos programas más. Creemos que al principio, cuando se abra el nuevo edificio, tomará un poco de tiempo generar suficientes ganancias para que nuestra taza de impuesto actual lo respalde,” dijo Katie Hammer, directora ejecutiva de RAPRD.

Endicott of an Era After 14 years as Redmond’s mayor, George Endicott looks back at his career and what he hopes for the future of the town

By Jack Harvel

George Endicott became the mayor of Redmond in 2009, after stints on the City Council and planning commission.

GE: I think a lot of the top priorities are what all of the ones currently running are focused on. Redmond’s growing. Growth is one of our biggest issues—maybe our biggest as a broad category. Things like affordable housing and all that fit into that narrative. But in terms of what the city can do, we’re going to need that new sewer treatment plant that’ll serve us for the next 30 to 50 years. We need the South 97 strip from Veterans Way to Yew Avenue rebuilt, which we just got briefed last meeting from ODOT. Then with increase in air traffic, the new terminal, that’s a $200 million endeavor to expand that terminal. So those are the big three, the sewer treatment plant, the airport terminal and South 97. And now I’ll add to that my Quarry interchange.

So I hope the new mayor, whoever it might be, would focus on those items. I’m supporting one individual in particular, because we know that there’s no way Redmond is going to come up with the hundreds of millions of dollars, that collectively all those projects are going to need. So, we need somebody that knows how to go get money for Redmond, either at the state or federal level. So that’s my sage advice is to make sure you know how and who to go see to get funding for Redmond.

SW: And speaking of growth, you have a pretty good case study south of you. What lessons have you learned from Bend’s growth? And how did it impact how you govern?

GE: Well, Bend’s case is quite a bit different than ours in that, Bend’s first of all, a lot larger than we are—we’re 36,000 and they’re 100,000. But Bend’s big growth spurt started back in the early ‘70s or late ‘60s, even before we had land use planning. And I don’t mean this pejoratively, but a lot of Bend’s growth was chaotic.

It wasn’t planned, you know, you go here and do this, you put these kinds of zones in because there weren’t zones. That was all late ‘60s, early ‘70s. And the way they’ve grown since is sort of an expansion of that early-on development. Redmond lagged Bend by quite a few years. In terms of growth, we were stagnant for a long time, through the ‘70s and ‘80s. And so we

didn’t have that same growth without planning.

When the Oregon land use laws came in in the ‘70s. And then Redmond started growing. We followed the Oregon land use laws, of course, and hence, our growth has been a lot more... I’ll use the word rational.

And again, I’m not picking on Bend, I’m just saying.

There are reasons why Bend grew the way they grew and there are reasons why Redmond grew the way we grew.

I would say probably in comparing the two, the one thing that Bend did not do that we did. And that was follow some guidance back in the early 2000s about using urban reserves and urban growth boundary as separate endeavors, which we did do. And we were pretty successful in getting our growth models accepted by the state. Bend tried to combine them and it made it very complex. It took them a decade and millions to get theirs done. It took us about three years, and under a million to get ours done. So, you know, it’s just a different approach. So, learning from Bend, they followed us in that one. And I kept bugging them saying they should learn from us and they chose not to.

SW: A couple of the candidates for Redmond office, both for council and mayor, have brought up the incidents of the Confederate flag in a Redmond parade and some racist graffiti in Redmond parks. Does Redmond have a racism problem? And how should leaders respond when one of these incidents occurs?

GE: The answer is no. I asked that question of Erika McCalpine. She’s the [former] head of DEI for Oregon State University at OSU-Cascades and she is also not only the Head of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion but also [former] head of the Faculty Senate. Very, very bright woman and I asked her that question. And she said Redmond does not have a race problem— what Redmond has an income inequity problem.

And just so you know, I’ll just be very blunt, I do not subscribe to wokeism, which I see what a lot of that is.

I realize there’s a lot of people that claim that the Confederate flag is a symbol of hate, etcetera. Everyone’s entitled to their own opinion; I personally do not think it has a place. However, I’m a veteran, I fought in a war and I fought to protect our rights and that oath, and I’ll tell you the First Amendment supersedes personal feelings as far as I’m concerned. And while I do not like the idea of a Confederate flag in our parades, I also dislike more trying to censor people’s free speech. So that’s where I stand.

SW: How do you plan to spend your retirement?

And do you foresee any civic engagement in a different capacity?

GE: I’ll answer the second part first. Not right away.

I’m going to step aside. My wife and I’ve decided that there’s a great United States to see, and even some parts of the world. So, we’re going to start traveling.

And I mean, you know, sounds kind of silly, but I want to do that while I’m young enough to do it, before my health fails or something like that. We’re going to do a lot of traveling; we’re going to go see the United States of America.

It’s been a great gig. Being mayor to me has been not only an honor but a pleasure. And over the years, I have kind of a funny attitude about it, in that, when you engage in something like this, and if you have the right attitude about it, the system rewards you if you do it for altruistic reasons. Hopefully, the community recognizes that and rewards you as a consequence.

VOLUME 26 ISSUE 44 / NOVEMBER 3, 2022 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

I

n May, Redmond Mayor George Endicott announced that his long political career serving the Hub City would come to the end once his term ended in January 2023. We caught up with Endicott to learn more about his tenure, what he hopes for the future of Redmond and if he expects to return to some form of public service in the future. The conversation has been edited for clarity and length.

Source Weekly: What inspired you to get involved 14 years ago?

George Endicott: Well, actually I started out in the Planning Commission in ‘04. And then in ‘05, I was appointed to Council. Then in ‘06 I ran for Council.

I was on Council for two years and then ‘08 I ran for mayor. So I’ve been mayor since 2009. What inspired me? I’ve been involved in public service for many years, it all started way back when I lived in Virginia in the ‘70s. So, I’ve been doing this stuff off and on for 45 or 50 years.

I just think the civic government—local government is closest to the people. And I think that’s really, as the old cliche goes, where the rubber meets the road. I think you have the most impact, hopefully positive impact, on people when you’re closest to them.

SW: Is there anything you’re going to miss about being there?

GE: Of course. It was a hard decision, as you can imagine, but I think it’s time for the next generation. I love serving, I love people, I love Redmond and all the things that we’ve accomplished, so I’m going to miss it.

SW: Speaking of accomplishments, when it comes to accomplishments are you most proud of? And are there any regrets from your time serving?

GE: Most proud? Well, there’s a couple, of one is the rebuilding of downtown. And that’s a big category because it included several items, but the rebuilding of Sixth Street, the rebuilding of Fifth Street, the arch that we put in down there, the addition of Centennial Park, and its expansion, and then of course, City Hall, taking the old high school and making it the new city hall. And all of that I would call sort of civic engagement, you know, sort of a civic center and center of town.

The second one I think, is Hope Playground, where when we finished that back up five or six years ago, it was the largest completely accessible—meaning children with disabilities—the largest accessible playground in the state of Oregon. So I’m really proud of that from an individual project. And then quite proud of what we did downtown to rejuvenate downtown Redmond after the reroute got built.

In terms of regret, the one I regret not getting done was the interchange out at Quarry. We added 960 acres of large-lot industrial south of the town. And we’ve talked to several potential builders out there. These are large lots, 50 to 200 acres. And now several builders have said, ‘Well, we’d go out there if we had a lot better access to the highway.’ So, we’re in a catch-22 with ODOT [Oregon Department of Transportation].

ODOT says, ‘Well, until your traffic warrants an interchange, we won’t do it.’ And the businesses are saying, ‘Without the interchange, we won’t come.’ So I’m between a rock and a hard place on this one and I regret not getting that done.

SW: What in your view should Redmond’s next mayor’s top priorities be? And do you have any advice for them?

Rec It, Redmond Organizers are hopeful that the proposed recreation center in Redmond is in better shape than doomed 2019 and 2008 bonds

By Jack Harvel

R

enough revenue for our current tax rate to support it,” said Katie Hammer, executive director of RAPRD. Similar proposals were rejected by voters in 2019 and 2008. Gilman is hopeful the tide will turn in the district’s favor this time thanks to better organizing and running the measure in a November election rather than a lower-turnout May election.

“This time around, I think everybody just realizes that the town has grown so much, that it’s a necessary thing that we need,” Gilman said. “Last time, the political action committee was a lot less organized and didn’t have the enthusiasm that it does this time around.”

RAPRD is still nailing down the specific programming it’ll bring to the facility, but is anticipating sports camps for kids, art classes, technology classes and even cooking classes at a small teaching kitchen. Recreation leagues will also have their own space, which currently are run out of Redmond School District facilities.

“The school district is fabulous.

And we use their facilities on a regular basis. But they’re at capacity as well,” Hammer said.

If just the levy passes and the bond fails the project will be scrapped, but if the bond passes and the levy fails the district will build the facility and secure operational funding once it can. Gilman said if the levy fails, they’ll try to secure funding in a future election.

“I’m a big fan of putting a stake in the ground, building a foundation for something, and then we’ll figure out a

way to get the money to do the rest of it. I don’t think anybody wants to see a $50 million state-of-the-art facility that we don’t have the funds to run,” Gilman said.

RAPRD wouldn’t shut down the Cascade Swim Center if the bond passes, and expects to continue to lease it from the Redmond School District until it’s no longer viable. The newer facility is anticipated to meet the needs of the Redmond population for the next 30 years based on the current growth rate. If successful, RAPRD expects construction to start in late 2023 and for the facility to open by fall 2025.

This map shows the proposed plan for Redmond recreation.

Concepts of the proposed recreation center includes a lazy river, a bouldering wall and more.

edmond’s Cascade Swim Center opened in 1979, bringing a 25-meter indoor pool to a town of 6,500 people. In the 43 years since opening, Redmond’s gained about 30,000 residents, and the facility is struggling to meet the demand of its growing population.

“We have a full pool, we have waiting lists for swim lessons, we have a swim team that also has a waiting list, we have record registrations for soccer, and we have basketball that has no place to practice,” said Matthew Gilman, board chair of the Redmond Area Parks and Recreation District. “We have a whole community of people that really don’t have anywhere to keep themselves healthy and fit for most of the year.”

The $48 million facility would have an eight-lane lap pool, a lazy river, water slide, workout equipment, basketball and pickleball courts and a bouldering wall. The bond that would fund the project would tack on $7.07 in property taxes per $100,000 of assessed value — $4.67 to build the facility and a separate $2.40 option to fund the operating costs. The typical Redmond household would be paying about $15 a month, and people living in RAPRD would get a 30% discount to use the facility.

“The bond is only for the construction of the building and cannot be used for operations. So, the levy will help pay for staffing, utilities, maintenance and things like that. So that way, we can bring in some more programs. We anticipate that at the beginning, when the new facility is open, that it’s going to take a little bit of time for it to generate

With a gourmet vegan restaurant, PNW beer on tap and programming that caters to various genres of entertainers, the High Desert Music Hall sets the bar high for hospitality in Central Oregon’s music scene

By Doone Lupine Williams Photos courtesy of the High Desert Music Hall

Left to right: Owners Ilko Major and Cimarron Brodie dangle the keys the old church they would convert into a new venue; an after shot of the finished venue.

O

nce upon a time — when owners Ilko Major and Cimarron Brodie wanted a new lifestyle that could express their dual passions for art, music, events and community — a 1940s Baptist Church in downtown Redmond landed on their radar. After two additions in the 1960s and 1980s, the now 19,000 square-food “beautiful big red beast” sits prominently at 818 SW Forest Ave. “It seemed that all of our experience, ideas and goals were being met by one location and place,” said Brodie. “In this search and in our love for Central Oregon, Redmond sort of found us.” The couple now owns and manages the entire half city block, which houses over 10 other locally owned businesses.

It’s very safe to say this exciting new music venue is in very good hands. Both Major and Brodie come from a background in the music and events industry, while maintaining a strong passion for creating a sustainable business. Before transforming the old church into the High Desert Music Hall which opened in April 2021, they toyed with the idea of starting yoga retreats, surf retreats— they even looked for land to till. Today, their cosmic love for music, art and food has come full circle. Together, this talented duo equates to a creative eco-friendly empire that is leading the way for hospitality in Central Oregon’s music scene.

Major brings a background as a drummer, guitarist and electronic music producer. Brodie brings a plantbased and fine-art background (her background is in painting and sculpture and she even sings and produces music) while leading a vegan kitchen in the venue’s Backline Lounge. Located on the corner of SW 8th and Forest Avenue, the Backline Lounge isn’t just

a gourmet vegan restaurant (I highly recommend you try their “Chicken” Nuggets and Mushroom Quesadillas), it’s also a taproom and home for their housemade kombucha. Oh, and a new food cart pod outside offers even more culinary treasures. Like, can you ask for more?! They also like to keep their beer close to home – keeping their hops native to the Pacific Northwest.

“We feel as though it is very important to not only support other local businesses, it is also extremely important to minimize transportation and other harmful impacts on our world,” Brodie said. “There is no need to truck beer from across the country when we have plenty of amazing choices right here in our own backyard. How lucky are we?!”

The Backline Restaurant, Bar and Lounge has a capacity of 100, giving musicians yet another space to set up a gig. However, the 400-capacity Main Hall is where the bulk of the action happens. After spending months researching and comparing sound systems, the couple landed on a state-of-the-art flown line array style sound system that does acoustic wonders under the 40+ foot-high vaulted wooden ceilings.

“Our room is acoustically treated and we have plans to keep improving our sound. Many guests have already said that we are their favorite place to see live music in Central Oregon,” Brodie said. Not only is sound a huge priority, but so are ambiance and visuals. When playing a show at the High Desert Music Hall, artists get access to a projector, projection screen, spotlight lighting, a fog machine and smaller portable style PAs that can cater to different styles and sizes of events.

The venue even has a gem of an old 1929 baby grand piano that plays ampico rolls on its main stage. The

piano has been tuned every year since 1929!

HDMH also prides itself on not being genre-specific.

“Our vibe is creative, open, supportive and welcoming. … We are not focusing on any one genre of music.

We have already featured jazz, rock, blues, folk, Americana, electronic / DJs, bluegrass and punk. The list is growing and we’re open to just about everything,” Brodie said. The duo of Brodie and Major also do all of the booking themselves. “As artists ourselves we intimately understand the relationship that exists between the artist, the venue, the guest and how important these relationships are when it comes to presenting a memorable moment. Our goal has always been to give the artists and performers the same amount of attention to detail that we give our guests. Our mission focuses on providing an empowering space that is welcoming to all styles of people, art, music and positive community building events. Our goal is to ensure our guests feel safe, supported, sexy and invigorated.”

As Redmond continues to grow, the pair says, “We’re just getting started.”

For those who want to go check it out, the next show the pair is excited about is the David Starfire show Dec. 9.

As they shared, “If you like to dance to positive intention bass music this is your night! It will be sexy, uplifting and super sonically in tune!”

Wild Ride Brewing will host a fundraising event for the HeartSpace Horse Sanctuary on Thursday, Nov. 10 from 5-8pm, called Pints for Ponies. For every pint sold, $1 will go directly to the nonprofit organization. HeartSpace Horse Sanctuary is a 501(c) nonprofit that provides safe spaces and forever homes for older horses that have suffered trauma and have nowhere else to go.

Melanie Monge, founder and director of HeartSpace Horse Sanctuary, will be present at the fundraising event, along with a few other volunteers. Attendees can ask questions, learn about the horse sanctuary, buy t-shirts and donate while sipping on a fresh tap beer.

Wild Ride Brewing has a bunch of seasonal brews rolling out this time of year along with serving plenty of varieties, from tangy IPAs to fruity ales to the classic and rich Nut Crusher Peanut Butter Porter.

As horses age, it can be hard to find a peaceful, stable home for them. After prime riding years, owners give up horses for a variety of reasons, including increased care, limited space, not wanting to deal with the dying aspect, etc. Some horses end up at feedlots or at slaughter, and HeartSpace is trying to keep them out of those situations, according to Monge.

“We take them (the horses) in, and then we are pretty much a retirement facility,” Monge said. “I have always wanted to do something like this, to help horses and give them a forever home. I didn’t want them to be tossed around from place to place. We love the horses here, and we take care of them.”

HeartSpace Horse Sanctuary is always looking for more volunteers, and Monge invites the community to this event, to visit the facility and to learn more by visiting HeartSpace’s website.

Becerra’s on 6th Bistro in Redmond transports you to another time

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / NOVEMBER 3, 2022 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

26

By Donna Britt @donnabrittcooks “Wine and dine as you step back in time.” I saw that statement at the top of the website for Becerra’s on 6th Bistro, but I wasn’t sure what it meant exactly— that is, until I actually stepped inside the beautiful bistro in downtown Redmond.

Becerra’s is like a step back in time – to impeccable service, an elegant atmosphere and elevated fine dining. The space itself is modern and classic all at the same time. Inviting is how it felt when I walked through the front door, with wood and leather and candlelight.

Several beautiful antiques graced the premises, yet the open kitchen with the dazzling glass-like, reflective ceiling reminded me that it was indeed 2022.

Freshly baked loaves of bread were displayed on the counter alongside bottles of champagne in a huge silver chilling bowl. Chefs with tall hats were quietly working within view. My comfortable leather booth was in a row of booths along the outside wall where windows were covered by wooden plantation shutters. There was a row of tables down the middle of the restaurant and a long booth with tables on the other side, along the interior wall. The

entryway was tiled while the dining area was on a wooden floor. A huge vase of gorgeous flowers sat on a high ledge just inside the door. The place was beautiful and reminiscent of a classic European bistro or an old-school steakhouse back East. I immediately liked the vibe and was even more excited about the upcoming food.

But before I get to the menu, I must compliment the exemplary service. Our server was kind and earnest and well trained in formal fine dining service. He and owner/chef Moises Becerra greeted and treated each guest in the restaurant as if they were a treasured family member or VIP. From the warm hand towels offered as a welcome gesture to the complimentary cucumber palate cleanser before the main course, the attention to detail was impressive and the service was attentive and well-timed, allowing for private conversation and an unhurried evening. Becerra’s has mastered the art of hospitality.

But what about the food, you ask? Becerra’s menu is described as French-American cuisine with an accent on fresh, quality ingredients. Traditional Photos courtesy of Donna Britt

offerings include beef tartare, Caesar salad and Beef Wellington. On the recent evening I dined there, there was also lamb shank bourguignon, chicken roulade and potato leek soup, along with a fish de jour, other salads and entrees and several specials.

My dining partner and I started with a house-made baguette with three compound butters.

The baguette was warm and soft and very, very good. The butters were delightful. While I was concerned that it would be too much to order a salad and an entrée, I ordered a salad anyway and was so glad I did. My Fall Charred Kale and Beet Salad was excellent—a full platter of salt-baked beets, red beet puree, charred kale, candied hazelnuts, pickled chard and goat cheese with a pancetta vinaigrette. The kale was soft and easy to chew. A variety of colored beets were sliced into discs, baked and salted to perfection. The hazelnuts were like candy, in a good way, while the vinaigrette and goat cheese brought it all together.

My partner in crime got the Caesar, and as simple as it was, it was simply delicious with crispy melba croutons, toasted capers and freshly made dressing.

For my entrée I chose the halibut special which came with cauliflower puree, forbidden rice and Brussels sprouts. It was a divine dish. The halibut was perfectly pan seared, cooked to the proper doneness, thick, white and flavorful.

The rice was nutty and creamy and wonderful with the cauliflower puree and the sprouts—left whole but sliced into four petals—were tender and charred just right. It was a huge plate of food but I could not stop eating it. And I couldn’t help having bites of the rib eye steak and

frites my partner had on his side of the table. The steak was quite tender and flavorful. The fries were a bit salty but the serving was huge and I like salt so I would still give them a thumbs-up.

It all paired well with the nice Napa Valley cab we had chosen, too. The bistro has an extensive wine list with a variety of wines from the Pacific Northwest, California and other locales from around the world, plus a nice lineup of classic cocktails with a twist or two.

While I didn’t really have room for dessert, I had to have it anyway because it’s not every day I wander into a fine establishment like Becerra’s. Brioche Beignets with crème anglaise, dark chocolate ganache and strawberry coulis was our choice. The dipping sauces were great— especially the chocolate ganache, but the beignets were slightly tough on the outside. However, the inside of the fried dough balls was soft with a nice texture and taste.

Overall, this was a lovely evening of fine dining. It was expensive; for example the kale and beet salad was $18 and the rib eye steak and frites entrée was $59, but if you’re up for a spendy dinner or celebrating a special occasion, Becerra’s will transport you to another time and place where the atmosphere, service and food are all out of this world.

Be sure and call ahead for reservations.

Now You’re Talking, Holiday Edition Silent Echo goes live again with short play series

By Elizabeth Warnimont 29 but more on the level of poetry,” he says.

In “Slip and Fall,” Mary knows it’s the real Santa who falls down her chimney on Christmas Eve, but her husband isn’t convinced – which makes it all the harder for the jolly old elf to deliver his special, very personal message. While “Slip and Fall” is more of a constructed work, Choate says, “That Night” focuses more on the emotion of the story. “It digs into the characters’ motivations, so the conclusion is both surprising and inevitable,” he says. “When that happens, you get what’s called a perception shift. That’s really the art of the play. That’s what makes it a play rather than just a story.”

Jim Wurm of Redmond appears in “Slip and Fall,” along with Redmond duo Steve and Jenny Walker.

The Walkers also appear in “Figgy What the Hell,” directed by Laura Lee Coffman. In “Figgy,” Christine gets puzzling reactions to the treats she brings to her office’s holiday cookie exchange, a mystery eventually sleuthed out by her teenage son.

Keith Whalen’s “Coming to Town” should keep audiences guessing as “reveal after hilarious reveal” keep coming to the surface when an adult child struggles to discover the truth about Christmas from his protective parents. (Harmony House owner Katie Cavanaugh appears in “Town” as the child’s mother.)

“Never Too Many” will doubtless bring to mind the nation’s last Blockbuster store, which continues to serve customers in Bend. “It’s a very poignant play about a man closing his video store on Christmas Eve,” Choate says. A regular customer pays a final visit to the store, resulting in a thoughtful conversation.

While producer Marla Manning acquired the individual plays from across the U.S., two of the playwrights – Laura Lee Coffman and Persephone Vandegrift – reside in Central Oregon. Other local players that audiences may recognize from past theatrical productions include Mia Burton, Jody Creed, Deri Frazee (voice), Doug Kaufman, MJ Kuhar, Peetie McCook, Sophie Schmidt, Joan Upshaw, Nancy Wallace and

Manning notes that this year’s daylight savings time begins on Saturday night, so audiences attending the closing performance on Sunday should take note of the time change. Reservations may be made in advance from the Silent Echo website. Donations may also be made online, or at the door using Venmo.

pening on the heels of the 2022 BendFilm Festival, a popular short play bundle brings Silent Echo Theater Company back in action, performing live theater again after a two-year pandemic-driven hiatus.

The show features seven holiday-themed one-act plays written by six playwrights, two of whom are also from Central Oregon.

Because this story appears in the Redmond issue, it’s worth noting that the Hub City features large in this weekend’s festival of short plays, “Now You’re Talking, Holiday Edition,” opening Thursday at Harmony House in Sisters. Richard Choate of Redmond directs two of the seven works, and several Redmond actors appear in multiple plays. All of the actors and directors reside in Central Oregon.

First in the lineup is a spirited musical introduction, “Turkey Rap” by Laura Lee Coffman, performed by Laura Lee and Michael Coffman, both of Bend. Audiences may have seen another of the duo’s works at last week’s Tapestry of the Arts at the Cascades in Bend.

Their comical barnyard skit, “Hen Party,” was revived from a previous short play festival there.

“The Last Nutcracker” follows—a dark comic farce written by Central Oregon playwright Persephone Vandegrift in which a creepy kid terrorizes the iconic ballet star just as he is trying to show the ropes to his young protege.

Redmond artist Richard Choate directs “Slip and Fall,” about a surprise visit from a weary Santa, and “That Night,” a more serious piece about trauma and recovery. Choate also plays a part in “That Night,” a piece he considers to be “one of the poignant ones.”

The play finds a man struggling in the aftermath of a fatal crash. “The two plays I’m directing both have a nice depth to them,” he says. “I think it’s nice when a play is funny, but I think when it leaves you feeling a certain way, then I think that’s more valuable. I think in order to get that real play feel, not just the skin, a playwright almost has to be a poet, expressing much in few words. Playwriting is a craft, like writing a novel

Blanchett is Note Perfect SCREEN Cate Tár is a symphony in self immolation

By Jared Rasic

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / NOVEMBER 3, 2022 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

I

was talking to a friend before the screening of the new Cate Blanchett movie, “Tár,” last weekend, discussing the movies that intimidate us—movies that are crafted by genuine auteurs whose vision is so distinct and personal, it can almost be a losing battle to try to craft a review of them. There are certain movies I know I’m not smart enough to discuss on certain levels, but dammit, I find myself trying anyway.

“Tár” intimidates the hell out of me. You already know that Cate Blanchett is a master performer and I’m sure you’ve heard that her work as fictional Berlin Orchestra conductor Lydia Tár is her career-best work.

That’s not overstating anything. Blanchett doesn’t disappear into the role, instead she lives inside it completely (to the point where if she were to suddenly quit her career as an actor and become a composer it would make perfect sense.) She is actually conducting Mahler and Elgar’s symphonies. It’s astounding.

But her performance is only one of the major keys of the film. Written, produced and directed by Todd Field (his first film since 2006’s “Little Children” and only his third including 2001’s “In the Bedroom”), “Tár” isn’t just a showcase for Blanchett’s genius.

Field’s script and direction are never overshadowed by the performance; instead, they combine to make something so intimate and intensely human that you leave the theater feeling like Lydia is someone you know but haven’t seen in a very long time.

“Tár” also takes a long look at cancel culture, at gender roles in male-dominated fields, at power disparities surrounding sexual relationships, at self-destruction and so much more, but there are no monologues, no overly dramatic set-pieces or obvious bits of exposition. Instead, we spend almost two-thirds of the 158-minute runtime just watching Lydia exist in her day-to-day life. We watch her run errands and rehearse her upcoming performance. We are pulled into her routines so that we understand Tár not just

as a fictional character, but as a human being we can empathize with even in her coldest moments.

Viewers might find the slow-burn first two acts of the film to be a bit repetitive and laborious. There aren’t many moments of high drama to sift through because Field’s screenplay always opts for realism in between Tár’s bad dreams. When her life starts falling apart, it comes fast but with plenty of warning, so that her downfall is heavily tinged with a melancholy air of inevitability. She isn’t a very likable person. In fact, she’s sexually predatory and uses her power to quite literally destroy lives, but because of the time Todd Field gives us with her and the brittle humanity Blanchett instills in her, even as we watch her fall apart, we don’t rejoice.

Ultimately, “Tár” isn’t just about a rich white woman losing her shit, but an anthropological study on modern humanity and a morally discomforting examination on gender and class. The film asks for a lot of

patience from its audience, which it then rewards with one of the most jaw-dropping final shots I’ve ever seen.

There’s a complexity to “Tár” that most films past the 1970s don’t really have time for anymore. I haven’t stopped thinking about the movie since it ended because it felt like such a gut-punch of truth I’m not sure I was really expecting. I might not be smart enough to have caught all the subtleties of theme and execution, but I know “Tár” is a work of art that people will be discussing for years to come. Hopefully, I’ll be less intimidated by then.

Dir. Todd Field Grade: A Now Playing at Regal Old Mill, McMenamins Odem Theater Pub, Sisters Movie House

FILM SHORTS By Jared Rasic  Your friendly local film reviewer’s takes on what’s out there in the world of movies.

ARMAGEDDON TIME: James Gray has been one of our finest filmmakers for many years, but “Armageddon Time” might be the movie that finally brings him into the mainstream. Set in his hometown of Queens in the 1980s, this beautiful movie focuses on a multi-generational pursuit of the American Dream. Unforgettable. Regal Old Mill BANSHEES OF INISHERIN: From the stars and filmmaker behind the all-time classic, “In Bruges” comes this elegiac and funny dreamed about the end of a friendship on a small island off the coast of Ireland. I will be surprised if there’s a better film released this year. Regal Old Mill BARBARIAN: A woman arrives to her rental home but the dude who played Pennywise is already there. Most people would flee into the night, but then we wouldn’t have a movie, so she stays and deeply creepy horror ensues. This is a new horror classic from top to bottom. Regal Old Mill BLACK ADAM: This looks like every other superhero movie ever made, but “Black Adam” has been The Rock’s passion project for decades, leading me to believe there’s something about this story worth telling. I just want to see The Rock fight Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman,

Shazam and Aquaman at the same time. Regal Old Mill, Odem Theater Pub, McMenamins

There hasn’t been a good exorcism movie in a very long time and chances are this isn’t the one. Still, here’s hoping this rises above its generic trailer. Regal Old Mill SMILE: This new horror flick has a similar plot to “It Follows,” but is just creepy enough to stand on its own. After a young woman goes through a traumatic incident, she starts getting stalked by a smiling creature that looks like people she knows. This is a solid horror flick top to bottom.

OUTSIDE As Redmond Grows, So Does Its Cascade View trails, expansion of Cline Buttes trails are some of the projects for the Redmond COTA chapter

32 WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / NOVEMBER 3, 2022 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

Bike Community

A

s warm weather gives way to cold, some of Central Oregon’s most well-known bicycle trails go to bed for the season, soon to be—or already— tucked away under the snow. But that doesn’t necessarily mean trail riding has to end.

In honor of the 2022 Redmond Issue, we checked in with Central Oregon Trail Alliance Executive Director Emmy Andrews, who points out that some of the best cold-season bike riding takes place in the areas built and maintained by COTA’s Redmond chapter. Here’s a primer on some of the 45+ miles of singletrack trail COTA manages in and around Redmond.

Cascade View Trail System Completed in early 2022, the Cascade View Trail System has been a long time in the making.

“The Cascade View Trailhead is situated on the road into Eagle Crest off of Highway 126. We’re into about 12 miles of trail there—they’re kind of beginner, intermediate, there’s some rockier sections on the intermediate trail,” Andrews told the Source Weekly. “One of the trails, Stinger, kind of climbs up this hill and has these beautiful views of the mountains. And of course, people are also welcome to walk out there, and horse trails, too.”

Approval for building those trails came about four years ago, in a piecemeal fashion, Andrews said. “One trail was approved and then another trail was approved and so we’ve been getting those approvals and building those trails over a series of years.”

The completion of the Cascade View trails in 2022 came courtesy of a grant from the Bend Sustainability Fund, VisitBend’s taxpayer-supported fund financing projects “that create sustainable experiences in Bend’s community,” according to its website. The funds allowed COTA to finish the Stinger trail, located in a rocky area that would have taken volunteer crews a long time to build, Andrews said.

“We were able with that grant to hire a professional trail contractor and get it done in like six weeks,” Andrews said. Going forward, COTA hopes to add more miles at Cascade View, including a gravity trail and a trail that would go around Eagle Crest and connect to the Cline Buttes system, which then leads to the Maston trail system—another popular spot for winter riding for Redmond residents as well as those in the wider area.

Cline Buttes Cyclists who ride around the Cline Buttes area have been eyeing the potential construction of Thornburgh resort and wondering, how will that affect riding the buttes? The bottom line for cyclists: It won’t make it worse, and it could make it better.

“They [Thornburgh’s owners] have no interest in decreasing recreation opportunities. There are some trails that go on private property. The trails were built without really a formal process—they’re basically unsanctioned trails—so some of them extend onto private property. To get them brought into the [COTA] inventory with that development happening, those will have to be reworked, but we think it will be able to be done without significantly changing the experience out there. Working with BLM, it looks like it actually may present an opportunity to enhance what’s available in Cline Buttes.”

A COTA trail builder gets after it on an area trail.

The majority of the trails there are on Bureau of Land Management land, Andrews explained, and will continue to offer access for riders regardless of what happens with the resort. Some trails also go onto Department of State Lands properties, too, Andrews said, and with the sale of some State Lands properties to Thornburgh off the table for now, the status quo remains.

“In general, it looks like recreation will continue and potentially even be enhanced,” Andrews said of Cline Buttes, adding that Thornburgh is working with a professional trail builder to plan the resort’s offerings.

Radlands Situated on county property north and east of Redmond’s city center, the Radlands makes for a fun and technical ride—though cycling use has decreased there in recent years due to encampments, Andrews said. But one attraction to riding there: access for more types of riders.

“The Radlands is not a huge trail system, but it allows e-bikes, first of all, because it’s not on federal land, it’s on county land and they don’t have the same restrictions,” Andrews said. “It just has really fun rocky sections that are really challenging. I feel like it’s a bit of a sleeper trail area that people should probably

go and check out. All of the Redmond area is great for winter riding.”

But with winter riding, Andrews had one piece of parting advice: With freeze-thaw cycles being more

“The Radlands is not a huge trail system, but it allows e-bikes, first of all, because it’s not on federal land, it’s on county land and they don’t have the same restrictions.”

—EMMY ANDREWS prominent in the colder months, riders should be mindful of getting out on muddy trails, getting yourself all muddy and making a mess of the trails and creating ruts.” In other words, don’t ride when it’s muddy, or riders are giving COTA a lot more work to keep the trails maintained.

Smith Rock Trail Party

Running and hiking the scenic trails of Central Oregon is popular with community members and visitors. With the flowing Deschutes River, magnificent rock formations and ever-changing nature, Smith Rock is a state park in Oregon that sees many recreators over the course of the year. And with many visitors, comes trail damage and user-made trails.

Trailkeepers and Go Beyond Racing are hosting a trail party event on Nov. 25 at 10am to repair the west end of Misery Ridge, at the junction of River Trail and Mesa Verde trail.

Curtis Smith is a crew leader, trainer and project manager with Oregon Trailkeepers and lives in Redmond. He has been involved with volunteer trail work for over 15 years. Smith is the crew leader for this trail party and will direct attendees on repair work. Attendees will do rock work to repair and block off the user-made trails and improve the general area. User-made trails are made by hikers/runners that go off path.

“If three people walk over a natural area in Central Oregon, it takes 10 years for that damage to naturally heal,” Smith said.

Almost all trail maintenance is done by volunteers, according to Smith. With hundreds of miles of trails around Oregon, there are very few paid employees that can make repairs, and that’s why Oregon Trailkeepers rely on volunteers to keep the trails clean, safe and in good shape.

“We really encourage people to volunteer,” Smith said. “If you’re a hiker, we suggest at least once a year, go out and help maintain trails.”

Happy Girls Run

Uniting female athletes and providing a bonding space for women to run together, Happy Girls Run is hosting a half-marathon and a 5K race in Sisters on Saturday, Nov. 5. With two races to choose from, runners of all levels can participate.

The half-marathon race will wind through the Peterson Ridge Trail system, beneath the huge Ponderosa pines and Central Oregon nature. With a total elevation gain of 3,182 feet, this trail is one that runners must be prepared for. The first half of the race is a slight climb up, and the second half is a steady downhill glide.

The 5K race is a steady, relatively flat road run. Both races will finish at the same place, at the FivePine Lodge and Conference Center. All participants will have the opportunity to celebrate together with coffee, cocktails and a food spread.

Happy Girls Run has been putting on races for over 10 years to provide a supportive and inclusive running environment for women. Every year, more and more runners come out to enjoy the beauty of Central Oregon.

Each participant will receive a medal, a local sponsor swag bag and full access to the post-race celebration. The beneficiary of the event is Sisters Park & Recreation District, a nonprofit dedicated to recreation, sports and enrichment programs in Sisters.

ith so many breweries to choose from in Central Oregon—let alone the rest of the state—one might imagine that the art of brewing your own could be less attractive or just plain unnecessary for the lover of all things hops and barley. But nope—a vibrant home-brewing scene operates in the Beervana of Central Oregon, and this week, some of those home brewers are even bringing their creations out for the public to enjoy.

Brewers from Redmond, Madras and Bend have teamed up with local home brewers to compete in the Central Oregon Pro-Am People’s Choice event this weekend, on Nov. 5. Each homebrewer is partnered with a “pro” from a local brewery to brew up beers in a host of styles. Locals can show up between noon and 5pm at the Boneyard Pub on NE Division Street to vote for their favorites and award one local home brewer some bragging rights, along with dollars heading toward a charity of the brewer’s choice.

Participating brewers include Tony Rau from Boneyard Beer, Seth Klann from Mecca Grade Estate Malt & Tasting Room, Chris Brumley from Initiative Brewing, Nate Doss from Bevel Craft Brewing, Todd Clement from Monkless Belgian Ales, Michael “Curly” White and Jonathan Cano from Wild Ride Brewing, Vern Johnson from Deschutes Brewery, Melanie Betti from Spider City Brewing, Grant McFarren from Crux Fermentation Project and

Deven Roberts from Porter Brewing Company.

The beers in the competition run the gamut from a light Berliner Weisse to a Belgian Tripel to an Imperial Stout.

“This promises to be a fun event for any beer enthusiast, offering an opportunity to try some delicious, unique brews brought to you by the Central Oregon brewing community,” stated a press release on the event from Jon Abernathy, a local beer enthusiast and Central Oregon Homebrewers Organization member who writes regular reviews at thebrewsite.com. Abernathy is also the author of “Bend Beer: A history of brewing in Central Oregon.”

The 10 beers in the homebrew competition will come in two flights of five beers. Attendees can buy a flight for $10 or pints of a particular beer for $6.

The event will also include a raffle that includes Central Oregon beer swag.

COHO, which is putting on the event, was started in 2005 to bring brew enthusiasts together for education and fun. The group meets the third Wednesday of every month at the Aspen Ridge Retirement Community on Bend’s east side. More info is available at cohomebrewers.org.

how to get the most out of the next three weeks: 1. Be a master of simmering, ruminating, marinating, steeping, fermenting, and effervescing. 2.

Summon intense streams of self-forgiveness for any past event that still haunts you. 3. Tap into your forbidden thoughts so they might heal you. Discover what you're hiding from yourself so it can guide you. Ask yourself prying questions. 4. Make sure your zeal always synergizes your allies' energy, and never steals it. 5. Regularly empty your metaphorical trash so you always have enough room inside you to gleefully breathe the sweet air and exult in the earth's beauty.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): "I straddle reality and the imagination," says Sagittarian singer-songwriter Tom Waits. "My reality needs imagination like a bulb needs a socket. My imagination needs reality like a blind man needs a cane." I think that's great counsel for you to emphasize in the coming weeks. Your reality needs a big influx of energy from your imagination, and your imagination needs to be extra well-grounded in reality. Call on both influences with maximum intensity!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Sometimes, Capricorn, you appear to be so calm, secure, and capable that people get a bit awed, even worshipful. They may even get caught up in trying to please you. Is that a bad thing? Not necessarily—as long as you don't exploit and manipulate those people. It might even be a good thing in the coming weeks, since you and your gang have a chance to accomplish big improvements in your shared resources and environment. It would take an extra push from everyone, though. I suspect you're the leader who's best able to incite and orchestrate the extra effort.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): If you have been posing as a normal person for too long, I hope you will create fresh outlets for your true weird self in the weeks ahead. What might that entail? I'll throw out a couple of ideas. You could welcome back your imaginary friends and give them new names like Raw Goodness and Spiral Trickster. You might wear fake vampire teeth during a committee meeting or pray to the Flying Spaghetti Monster to send you paranormal adventures. What other ideas can you imagine about how to have way too much fun as you draw more intensely on your core eccentricities?

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): I suspect you will

INVEST IN YOU STYLE COACHING & ORGANIZATION FOR REAL BODIES & LIFESTYLES WARDROBE CURATION CAPSULE CREATION SHOPPING SUPPORT KIDS CLOSETS OCCASION WEAR

have metaphorical resemblances to a duck in the coming weeks: an amazingly adaptable creature equally at home on land, in the water, and in the air. You will feel comfortable anywhere you choose to wander. And I'm guessing you will want to wander farther and wider than you usually do. Here’s another quality that you and ducks will share: You'll feel perfectly yourself, relaxed and confident, no matter what the weather is. Whether it's cloudy or shiny, rainy or misty, mild or frigid, you will not only be unflappable—you will thrive on the variety. Like a duck, Pisces, you may not attract a lot of attention. But I bet you will enjoy the hell out of your life exactly as it is.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): When you Aries people are at your best, you are driven by impeccable integrity as you translate high ideals into practical action. You push on with tireless force to get what you want, and what you want is often good for others, too. You have a strong sense of what it means to be vividly alive, and you stimulate a similar awareness in the people whose lives you touch.

Are you always at your best? Of course not. No one is. But according to my analysis of upcoming astrological omens, you now have extra potential to live up to the elevated standards I described. I hope you will take full advantage.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): In my experience,

WWW.CALICOCONCEPT.COM THECALICOCONCEPT 541-678-3383

you Tauruses often have more help available than you realize. You underestimate your power to call

on support, and as a result, don't call on it enough.

It may even be the case that the possible help gets weary of waiting for you to summon it, and basically goes into hiding or fades away. But let's say that you, the lucky person reading this horoscope, get inspired by my words. Maybe you will respond by becoming more forceful about recognizing and claiming your potential blessings. I hope so! In my astrological opinion, now is a favorable time for you to go in quest of all the help you could possibly want. (PS: Where might the help come from?

Sources you don't expect, perhaps, but also familiar influences that expand beyond their previous dispensations.)

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Sometimes, life compels us to change. It brings us some shock that forces us to adjust. On other occasions, life doesn't pressure us to make any shifts, but we nevertheless feel drawn to initiating a change. My guess is that you are now experiencing the latter.

There's no acute discomfort pushing you to revise your rhythm. You could probably continue with the status quo for a while. And yet, you may sense a growing curiosity about how your life could be different. The possibility of instigating a transformation intrigues you. I suggest you trust this intuition. If you do, the coming weeks will bring you greater clarity about how to proceed.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): "We suffer more often in imagination than in reality," wrote ancient Roman philosopher Seneca. That's certainly true about me. If all the terrible things I have worried about had actually come to pass, I would be unable to function. Luckily, most of my fears have remained mere fantasies. What about you, fellow Cancerian? The good news is that in the coming months, we Crabs will have unprecedented power to tamp down and dissipate the phantasms that rouse anxiety and alarm. I predict that as a result, we will suffer less from imaginary problems than we ever have before. How's that for a spectacular prophecy?

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Poet Matt Michael writes, "Sure, the way trees talk is poetry. The shape of the moon is poetry. But a hot dog is also poetry. LeBron James’ tomahawk dunk over Kevin Garnett in the 2008 NBA Playoffs is poetry. That pothole I always fail to miss on Parkman Road is poetry, too." In accordance with current astrological omens, Leo. I'd love for you to adopt Michael's approach. The coming days will be a favorable time to expand your ideas about what's lyrical, beautiful, holy, and meaningful. Be alert for a stream of omens that will offer you help and inspiration. The world has subtle miracles to show you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Virgo author Michael Ondaatje was born in Sri Lanka, but as a child moved to England and later to Canada. His novel *Running in the Family* describes his experiences upon returning to his native Sri Lanka as an adult. Among the most delightful: the deluge of novel sensory sensations. On some days, he would spend hours simply smelling things. In accordance with current astrological omens, I recommend you treat yourself to comparable experiences, Virgo. Maybe you could devote an hour today to mindfully inhaling various aromas. Tomorrow, meditate on the touch of lush textures. On the next day, bathe yourself in sounds that fill you with rich and interesting feelings. By feeding your senses like this, you will give yourself an extra deep blessing that will literally boost your intelligence.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You evolved Libras understand what's fair and just. That’s one of your potencies, and it provides a fine service for you and your allies. You use it to glean objective truths that are often more valuable than everyone's subjective opinions. You can be a stirring mediator as you deploy your knack for impartiality and evenhandedness. I hope these talents of yours will be in vivid action during the coming weeks. We non-Libras need extra-strong doses of this stuff.

Homework: What’s the unfinished thing you most need to finish?

AWAKENING YOUR INNER HERO

By Burt Gershater

You Are Important for you.

Many of us define ourselves by the work we’ve chosen to do. “I am a counselor.” “I am a mother.” “I am a farmer, teacher, bartender, barber, computer programmer.” The ways to turn a dollar are endless, as endless as our ever-expanding human needs and desires.

We humans are inextricably interwoven from one corner of the earth to the other. We are all servers and receivers.

Now, let’s get down to business.

Are you happy doing what you are doing?

Does doing what you are doing define who you are, or simply pay the bills?

What really matters to you?

What’s your purpose?

What’s your calling?

Do you realize you have important jobs to do during your stay here on Earth?

Actually, many important jobs.

You are important.

Yes. Breathe. Say these words slowly to yourself, “I am important.”

There are many ways to navigate this

return home and give life another shot.”

We can never know how important we are to another person.

Sometimes, we think that what we do doesn’t matter. The world is too messed up. Nobody cares.

It is not for you and me to complete the task. The big issues in life take generations of dedicated work. We can only do our part.

The great leader, Martin Luther King Jr., told us: "Everybody can be great, because anyone can serve.

You do not have to have a college degree to serve.

You do not have to make your subject and verb agree to serve.

You only need a heart full of grace.

A soul generated by love.

Any voice that remotely suggests you are not important is lying.

Whether it’s your voice or anyone else’s.

You are important.

We all are.

That is the truth!

Blessings…

What do you know?

You likely have knowledge and/or skills that others can benefit from.

A dentist knows how to repair our ever-decaying teeth. A painter knows how to cover fading walls and brighten our lives. Professional basketball players know how to shoot, rebound and play tough defense. Comedians know how to make us laugh…what a blessing. Everyone who works on our planet knows how to do something that others need or minimally desire—and are willing to pay their hard-earned money to acquire.

Most of us, past the age of 18, need to be working or be learning something that will assist us in this essential area of life. You are needed by others just as others are needed by you. If you are reading this message now, most likely, you go to work, go to school, or have worked your way into retirement. Hallelujah! Work seems to have worked out

work-happiness, life-satisfaction, what the heck am I doing here? challenge of life.

Few of our challenges are more important than this one.

When we die there will likely be a memorial service, a gathering of loved ones. Some folks will take this opportunity to express heartfelt words in our memory. There will be tears and laughter as our life is reviewed and honored.

Author David Brooks identifies two different kinds of life summaries: resumé virtues and eulogy virtues. The former is more of what gets written for a job application. It answers what kind of work we have done. Our skills, achievements and worldly successes. Generally, these are not the qualities people are most remembered for. What we are remembered for is how we treated others—our partner, our children, friends, even strangers; acts of kindness, courage and generosity.

Back to you and me being important.

Our importance is measured by how we improve the lives of others. There is a story of a police detective in San Francisco whose job was to follow up on the suicides of people who jumped off the Golden Gate Bridge. In the apartment of one of the deceased, he found a note that read, “I am going to take my life today. On my way to the bridge, if someone pauses and says hello to me, I will

Preparing your home for winter Some helpful tips

valve box, is a good idea as well. Also make sure that all your hoses are disconnected from the spigot so that any water stuck inside can drain out and not freeze, risking a burst pipe. Once you have disconnected your hose use an outdoor faucet cover to insulate the spigot.

On the topic of water, the fall is a great time to inspect your gutters and downspouts and remove any debris from them.

Debris left can block the drains, causing water to pool and leak out of the gutters as well as weigh them down and cause them to break. If you are not comfortable spending some time up on a ladder it is likely worth a call to a professional to have them clean and inspect your gutters.

Finally, let’s take a moment to check our exterior doors to see if any light from outside the home is visible.

You may need to add or replace a door sweep, along with weather stripping that can keep the cold air out, and the warm air inside the home. Next, look at all your windows and make sure they are completely closed, and the seals are working properly. Once you have addressed any door or window seal issues, check other places like air conditioner units or mail slots for areas that can be sealed up a little tighter.

Sealing up your home can really help your home stay warm, and of course reduce your energy bills.

hat an absolute stunner of an early fall we had in Central Oregon, with warm temperatures throughout almost all of October! With the leaves changing from green to yellow and red and falling everywhere, it is a reminder that winter and freezing temperatures will soon be upon us. With the freezing temperatures coming, it is time to get our properties ready for winter if you have not done so already.

Below are a few tips to help you out or guide you along.

One of the first things I do when the overnight lows start dropping is close the vents in my foundation stem wall and cover them with polystyrene vent plugs to keep the cold air and moisture out of my crawl space.

If you do not have vent plugs, take a quick measurement of your foundation vents, as your local hardware store will likely have a few different sizes for you to select from.

The next thing to think about is blowing out the sprinkler/irrigation lines to prevent them from freezing and cracking. While a night or two with temperatures below freezing will not cause the pipes to freeze and burst, it is still best to get this taken care of as soon as possible. If you have a large air compressor it is a straightforward task, or you can hire a professional to take care of this for you. Years ago, I was told that putting packing peanut foam pieces in plastic bag to help insulate your water
