Skate Clatskanie man convicted on multiple counts of rape, sex abuse park plans back on track BY SHARI PHIEL The Chronicle
BY SHARI PHIEL The Chronicle
SCAPPOOSE — Plans to replace Scappoose’s skate park near city hall ran into some delays that officials are hopeful they have finally resolved. Earlier this year, Grindline Skateparks based in Seattle was awarded a contract with the city through a competitive bid process with an expected completion date of May 31 for a new 4,900 square foot skate park. In early April the company brought a geotechnical engineering firm hired by Grindline to do borings on the previous skate park site. According to Grindline, that’s when the problems began. In an email sent by Grindline sales manager Micah Shapiro, the company points to results found by that geotechnical engineering firm as the cause. “We have been going back and forth with our structural and geotech engineers and based on their investigations we come to the conclusion that it will be better to demo the old park than to pour over it,” said Shapiro. Grindline said it then began working with its contractors to determine how best to remove the old park. “Although this has delayed the project, in the long run it will provide for a better skatepark both from a skateability and durability standpoint,” said Shapiro. Grindline also said the concept submitted with the proposal called for the new park to have the same elements as the existing park but that limitation wouldn’t be necessary with the new design. “Now that we are starting from scratch we have a lot of flexibility to do a different and better layout,” said Shapiro. But City Manager Jon Hanken said the decision to scrap the previous plans in See PARK, Page A4

A Clatskanie man arrested in 2011 and charged with multiple counts of rape, sodomy and sex abuse has been convicted on 46 separate counts. George Nick Lammi, 55, was arrested on June 8, 2011 after a friend arrived at his home at witnessed Lammi abusing a female relative. The witness then reported Lammi to law enforcement officials. Lammi’s trial began on May 28 and ended with his conviction on June 3.
“Basically, his daughter would visit him on weekends. Starting in December of 2010 until 2011, he was raping and sodomizing her,” said Deputy District Attorney George Lammi Jon Berg. “Sex abuse is not often a crime we have a witness to.” Lammi was initially charged with three counts of first-degree rape, 16 counts of first-degree sodomy, nine counts of first-degree sex abuse and
19 counts of incest. The jury ultimately found him guilty on all but one count which was dismissed. “The grand jury indicted him for three counts of rape and 16 counts of sodomy. It ultimately turned out to be 46 counts that he was convicted on,” said Berg. “I’m very thankful for the jury. They did a good job.” If it seems like an unusually long time between when Lammi was arrested and when his trial began, that’s because it was. Berg said some extenuating circumstances in the case delayed prosecution. “There were some intervening facts that delayed the trial. The
defense filed I can’t tell you how many motions,” Berg said. “We were just flooded with motions from the defense on mostly discovery issues. And there were other issues.” Lammi’s was orginally held at the Columbia County Jail on $800,000 bail which was reduced to $139,000 following a bail reduction hearing. The trial itself wasn’t without its own difficulties. “I’ve never had a trial that was attended so well by supporters of the offender. At one point, the jury actually complained because they were disturbing the jury’s ability to See CONVICTION, Page A4

Planning commission resumes rezoning public hearing BY SHARI PHIEL The Chronicle
The Columbia County Planning Commission will continue its public hearing held over from May 20 to review a rezoning application submitted by the Port of St. Helens. The second part of the public hearing will be held on June 17 in the courthouse at 230 Strand. The Port has requested a comprehensive plan amendment and zone change to expand its Port Westward industrial site by more than 950 acres. That acreage, which is partially owned by the Port, is currently zoned for agricultural use. “The Port is seeking to create a framework to attract industrial users,” said Patrick Trapp, executive director for the Port. “Those businesses will provide above average wages.” Planning manager Glen Higgins
said undeveloped and vacant land already zoned as for industrial use has been identified as wetlands and that the proposed zoning request did not target any wetlands already on the national wetlands inventory. But opponents to the zoning request say there is no need for additional industrial lands and that the Port already has plenty of industrial-zoned property in its possession. Scappoose resident Pat Zimmerman, who has been heavily involved in the opposition to that city’s Urban Growth Boundary expansion request, was among dozens speaking against the Port’s rezoning application. Zimmerman said the Port’s request is based on two statements – that PGE’s leasehold makes the area unavailable and that the entirety of the area inside the Port Westward Industrial Park not currently developed is See PORT, Page A6

Aguirre tapped for role of St. Helens High principal BY SHARI PHIEL The Chronicle
Students returning to St. Helens High School next fall will find a familiar face sitting behind the principal’s desk. Assistant Principal BG Aguirre has been named as the school’s new principal, replacing outgoing principal Andy Croley who will be leaving his position in June. The team selected to replace Croley may not have had to look far to find his replacement, but the interview process was certainly thorough. “The interview team – comprised of myself, St. Helens High School students, several parents, district staff, and a school board member – deliberated the interviewed candidates and recommended two strong candidates for my final consideration,” said District Superintendent Mark Davalos. Davalos ultimately selected Aguirre for the position and made
his recommendation to the school board at its May 22 regular meeting. “BG is already working hard to help close the 2012–2013 year and take the BG Aguirre helm of responsibility she has accepted. I am delighted with our choice and confident for our future,” Davalos added. Aguirre has been at St. Helens High School for the past five years and is ready for her new role. “I am honored to be the next principal at St. Helens High School,” she said. Aguirre attended Oregon State University, graduating in 1998 with a major in sociology and Spanish. She then went on to Concordia University in Portland where she earned her
master’s degree. “I started teaching in the Beaverton School District and taught there for eight years. I started at the elementary level,” Aguirre said, noting she taught at Vase and Kinnaman elementary schools. “Then I did my administrative program through Beaverton future leaders program.” She said she got her first administrator position at Newport High School, where she was the assistant principal. She then became the principal at Sam Case Elementary, also in Newport. Aguirre said her experience teaching and working with students from all levels – from kindergarten through high school – has helped with her role at St. Helens High School. “It’s an awesome thing… I get the whole K-12 vertical alignment, I know where they need to be when the come here. I think it just helps overall and I know it’s helped me with kids that are struggling,” Agu-
irre said. Although she won’t officially begin her new position until July 1, Aguirre has been spending time shadowing Croley to learn more about the responsibilities she will be taking on. “Mr. Croley has been really cool. He’s been letting me be part of and take part in the decisions that are being made now,” she said. “It’s kind of a transition period right now.” Aguirre said she has enjoyed having the opportunity to take on new responsibilities. In fact, she’s already looking at her goals for next year. “With the new graduation requirements for math – needing Algebra I or higher – one thing I’ve already done, last week at the administrators meeting, was fight to have summer school… we will offer summer this summer,” she added. “And we have an online program that’s a proficiency-based program. Students can sign up for one class and complete as many as they need to.”

Driver injured after car collides with log truck Oregon State Police is continuing its investigation into a serious injury crash involving a passenger car and an unloaded log truck on Highway 202 just east of Birkenfeld that occurred in the morning hours of June 5. One woman was transported to a Portland-area hospital for treatment of injuries. According to Trooper Jessica Spurlock, at approximately 6:45 a.m., a 2002 Ford Escort driven by Sarah Naeve, 26, of Birkenfeld, was headed eastbound on Highway 202 when it crossed the centerline into the path of a westbound 2000 Kenworth truck driven

by Robby Tovey, 28, from Hillsboro. Tovey was unable to avoid the oncoming car and the two vehicles collided,
nearly head-on. Naeve was transported by Mist-Birkenfeld Fire Department personnel to a nearby landing zone, where she was
picked up by a LifeFlight helicopter. She was taken by air to Oregon Health & Science University with possible serious injuries. Tovey was not injured in the crash. Both drivers were using safety restraints and the car’s airbags did deploy. OSP is looking into the cause of the crash including the possibility that bright sun conditions may have been a factor in the crossover collision. OSP was also assisted at the scene by ODOT and a tow company out of Scappoose. The highway was blocked for about an hour.
Suicidal man talked down from Lewis and Clark Bridge LONGVIEW, WASH. — A Rainier police officer helped authorities from Washington talk a suicidal man down from the Lewis and Clark Bridge. At around 7:45 a.m., deputies from the Cowlitz County Sheriff’s Office responded to the bridge after a report came in that a 47-year-old Longview man was preparing to jump. The Cowlitz County dive rescue team was
staged at the base of the bridge, while the sheriff’s office brought a boat to the area, Washington State Police shut down southbound traffic and Longview Police shut down northbound traffic across the bridge. Rainier Police Officer Russ George was first on the scene and began talking with the man. Deputy Dan Sheridan was next on scene and took over talking to the subject, who had crawled
over the bridge railing, and then over railing around some construction scaffolding and was hanging on over the center span of the bridge, more than 200 feet above the Columbia River. The sheriff’s office cleared bridge workers from the area while authorities continued to talk to the man. Within about 10 minutes, the suicidal man was talked back onto the bridge, climbing
back on his own power. He was transported to St. John emergency room for evaluation. His truck was turned over to Washington State Police and the bridge was reopened after about a 20-minute closure. The man never gave a specific reason for being suicidal; he stated he was upset about everything.

concentrate on what was going on,” said Berg. Sentencing is expected to take place on July 9. Under Oregon law, the rape and sodomy counts fall under Jessica’s Law sentencing requirements which requires a 25 year mandatory minimum sentence for adults convicted of raping or sodomizing a child under age 12. The bill was passed by the Oregon legislature in 2006. “Each one – depending –
carries a minimum sentence of 25 years. He can’t get less than 25 years,” said Berg. “The sex abuse [charges] have 75-month minimum.” But whether Lammi will be ordered to serve his sentences consecutively or concurrently remains to be determined. Lammi’s sentencing hearing will be presided over by Judge Steven Reed, who also presided over the trial. Although Reed recently retired, he will back on the bench for the sentencing phase.
PARK: demolishing of existing state park begins June 20 From PAGE A1 SHARI PHIEL / The Chronicle
Volunteer Jean Lewis (center) is greeted by teen court volunteers at the program’s end of year celebration at Sunshine Pizza on June 6.
Teen Court program closes out another successful year ST. HELENS — Members of the Columbia County Teen Court celebrated another successful year completed with a small get-together at Sunshine Pizza in St. Helens on June 6. The program has been operating in Columbia County off and on for the past 15 years. Although originally managed by Judge Diana Shera Taylor, the program in recent years had been managed by Jean Lewis, a volunteer who Taylor said has donated countless hours of her time to make this program enrich as
many young lives as possible. When Lewis became ill in March and had to be hospitalized, Lisa Burnell and Dorinda Howden of Inner Journey Healing Arts in St. Helens picked up the administrative functions of the program. Generally, first time offenders who qualify for this program are diverted out of the normal juvenile court process to the teen court, where a jury of the teen’s peers decide their fate. Taylor noted that teens Ron Binum, Sarrah Jennings, and MiKayla Bennett have
shown remarkable dedication to this program by attending Teen Court almost every Thursday night to prosecute and defend the young offenders. Howden, who works full time as a counselor at Inner Journey, and also goes to school full time, has worked tirelessly with Liz Zimmerman of the Juvenile Probation Department to set up cases for Teen Court and get them to the teen prosecuting and defense attorneys. In the past year, some 30 cases have gone through the
Teen Court program. Sentences imposed have included serving Teen Court Jury Duty, performing community service, undergoing substance abuse evaluations and completing treatment, writing essays about the offenses they have committed, and making verbal or written apologies to those affected by their criminal behavior. “The professionalism and commitment that the teens have shown throughout the year make me proud to be a part of this program,” said Taylor.
favor of demolishing the existing site was never shared with the city, and could present a bigger problem as the contract was awarded through a bid process. “In the city’s Request for Proposal, we clearly stated that the site will be delivered to contractor ‘as-is’ with no warranty as to the condition or suitability of the existing structure for use in the new skate park,” said Hanken. Hanken added that Grindline did not contact the city about the delays or any unexpected issues. “The City’s RFP clearly stated that the skate park needed to be available for public use by May 31,” said Hanken.
Will the city be able to resolve its differences with the skate park contractor and move forward on the project? It seems so. Hanken said the original contract awarded in February is still in place and that Grindline is now moving forward again. “They got plans to us on Friday [June 7]. They are at the Building Department,” said Hanken. “We are reviewing their construction plans; if they have everything in them, they could begin to demolish the existing skate park by June 20 or so.” If Grindline doesn’t move forward with construction of the skate park, the city could begin assessing a charge of $500 a day beginning June 24.
Hamburgers in Paradise fundraiser set for June 25 Luminaria will light up the night Columbia River Partnerships for Change will host “Hamburgers in Paradise,” a fundraising event to help non-violent offenders access the services they need to become productive members of society, on June 25.
Columbia River Partnerships for Change supports the efforts of the Columbia County Treatment Court Programs by providing support and financial assistance to the treatment court programs. The event will take place
at the Columbia River Four Square Church, 555 Commons Road, in St. Helens from 3–7 p.m., and includes dinner, silent auction, dessert, and testimonials. Tickets are $10 each with 100 percent of the proceeds going to sup-
porting the treatment court programs. For more information or to purchase tickets, call Russell Cross at 503-3972327, ext. 331, or email russell.r.cross@ojd.state. or.us.
Amani Center is the real winner in Race Against Child Abuse ST. HELENS — Race organizers have confirmed that the fifth annual Amani Center Race Against Child Abuse held on May 25 was a huge success. Racers gathered in Columbia View Park, against the backdrop of the Columbia River, for a day full of events. The race offered four events, which included a half marathon and a 10k, 5k and 1-mile race course. The Race Against Child Abuse was professionally chip timed by
Uberthons who also broadcast live from the event. A record breaking 230 racers participated in the Race Against Child Abuse, which was key to the race’s success in raising $12,000 through sponsorships, registration fees and race donations/pledges. “I’m overwhelmed with the level of gratitude I have for our supporters. The success of the Race Against Child Abuse is due to the
dedication of our race advisory committee, generous sponsors, donors, volunteers, board members, community support including the cities and police departments of St. Helens and Columbia City, St. Helens CERT, Uberthons, and the race participants who laced up their shoes to make a difference in the lives of abused children,” said, Amani Center Executive Director Lisa Galovich.

lyn Naish and friends during the event was also a big success. Along with a variety of delicious baked goods (which sold quickly), Dutch Bros. Coffee also donated coffee to go with all of those delicious edible treats. According to Galovich, the bake sale alone raised $1,950, and a $700 match was also donated by Thrivent Financial for Lutherans, bringing the bake sale total to $2,650.

Circus was just right A big (top) thanks to Linda Chval and Diane Dillard, South Columbia County Chamber of Commerce and others involved in organizing the circus this past weekend.

Matt Freeman, St. Helens School District board Helping spirit Friday we were in Scappoose Bay and hit an unknown object in the water. We took on water and within a minute the boat had sunk and rolled over. We managed to get close to a tied floating log and we all survived. It happened very quickly and our escape was not without incident, we were scared and cold. I swam to shore to go for help. We would like to thank the people that helped us through the ordeal. The fishermen that happened by and came right over to offer help, get our older passengers on board their boat, tie up to our boat to tow it in. The Sheriff’s Office, who sent two boats to our aid. They stayed in contact with the dispatch so I knew that everybody was alive and well. They scooped out floating stuff, got Michael, and me when I returned from calling for help. Our dog was missing and presumed dead but when we reached the launch the officers helped roll the boat over and there was Leland, confused and happy to see us. We are new to the area and were so grateful for the helping spirit of the water community, as though it was

just a normal course of action to help and not a burden in any way. All our thanks to everyone. Brenda Dye, St. Helens Answer the question The Columbia County Planning Commission is meeting on June 17 at 6:30 p.m. at the county courthouse to consider a rezoning application by the Port. The Commission has received 197 letters in opposition to the Port’s request. Why? Because the Port is playing a shell game where we’re all supposed to guess why they want to take 957 acres of agricultural land and change it to industrial land. When first asked why they wanted to rezone, the Port said it had no specific plan but just wanted to be ready if an opportunity presented itself. However, now officials are saying it is so they can obtain a “special designation” under a new state rule whereby they will be able to fast-track development. In other words, they will be able to develop without having to comply with those pesky government agencies like everyone else does. The Port of St. Helens has a history playing their cards close to the vest. That works well in poker but this happens to be a tax-supported public agency required to answer to us when we ask questions. So far they haven’t needed to because we have not demanded they comply. Would you like to help turn that around? Are you willing to spend a couple of hours of your time to show them we are, indeed, watching? If so, see you on the 17th!

production and legal fees fighting the DOJ charge of illegally importing an endangered species of wood from Madagascar. After the phony and flawed “form 302, Finding of Fact” interrogation method (allowing two FBI agents to edit their own narrative of the interrogation; no video or audio record), Gibson pled out. This even though Gibson held legal documentation proving righteous import practices (Wall Street Journal, Aug. 20, 2012 “Gibson is off the hook.
Fair-minded There are chilling facts not initially thought to play a part in the conviction of Gibson Guitar by the Justice Department back in July 2012 for importing endangered wood. Considering the IRS’s choice of exclusively targeting conservative groups in its brewing 501(c)(4) scandal, here’s a similar story in the Justice Department of AG Eric Holder. The owner of Gibson, a large donor to conservative causes, lost millions in

It’s just been reported that a large liberal donor, Martin Guitar, using identical wood, wasn’t charged. All fair minded people must agree. This needs to be examined. Wayne Mayo, Scappoose
Dollars and Sense
The best advice for avoiding debt BY LILLIE ANDERSON OSU Extension Service
Besides someone once telling me “C’s get degrees” the worst possible bit of advice I ever received is “You’re young, go ahead and charge things now. You will be able to pay it all off once you’re older and have a good paying job.” I learned two valuable lessons from this piece of ill-advice. One, be cautious of financial advice given by someone who has never made a payment on their student loans, or paid their taxes, and two; never bank on the future. I followed this advice for only a few months, but not before I had racked up quite a bit of credit card debt, to go
along with my $20,000-plus owed in student loans. Now I can look forward to making payments every month for the next five years. Five years’ worth of debt all accumulated in just three short months. Although, going into debt seems like an easily avoidable path, for a majority of Americans my story is far from the worst. The average credit card owning household owes close to $16,000. The total amount of credit card debt owed in the nation is $760 trillion, or $2.4 million per person in the U.S. Why is it that we as a nation owe so much money? I believe a lack of education and advertisement exposure is to blame. A majority of us have never received personal finance education.
Schools rely on parents to teach the topic, and most parents are just as clueless as their kids when it comes to money. A recent survey found that 69 percent of parents feel more comfortable discussing the “birds and the bees” with their teens then talking about money, and a majority of parents’ rated their level of financial understanding at a C or lower. We are also being bombarded with more and more advertisements every day. Thirty years ago the average person saw 2,000 ads per day, now it’s up to 5,000, and rising. It’s hard to not want more and spend more when you are told five thousand times a day your life could be better if you only owned one more thing. Amidst this perfect storm
If you already have a debt, pay your credit card balance off in full every month. If the balance is too high to pay it off all at once then make more than your minimum payments. By paying only three times my minimum monthly payment my credit card debt will be paid off in just over a year (it was going to take five years) and will save me hundreds of dollars on interest. It’s never too early, or late, to begin learning about debt. To teach your little ones about debt begin with a library card. Make your child responsible for taking care of the books, and remembering to return the books on time. If they forget and acquire a fee make them pay the fee, either with their own money or by doing extra chores.
Once your kids are a little bit older allow them to borrow money from you while charging them a small interest. If you have children in their teens explain to them how a credit card works. There are tons of credit card calculators online to help you show your children the real cost of buying something on credit. If you want to learn even more about debt management I am facilitating free debt management classes this summer. The first class about understanding your credit report will be on June 15 from 9:30–10:30 a.m., at the Community Action Team building. Registration is required. Call 503-397-3462 to register. Although child care is not available teens are welcomed to attend with a parent.

of ads and lack of consumer knowledge it’s no surprise Americans are falling into more and more debt each year. However, there are ways to protect yourself, and your family, from the same financial mistakes so many of us make every day. Avoiding debt in the first place is always the best option, however considering the cost of houses and cars these days avoiding debt is hardly a reality. Instead be aware of how much you can afford to borrow. Before you borrow any money check your budget and make sure you can afford the payments, calculate the total cost of buying on credit; understand how much additional money you are going pay in interest, then decide if the item is worth it.

Obituaries George Harold Johnson George Harold Johnson passed away, Saturday, June 1, 2013 in the early morning. This was only befitting, as he always started his day early; especially when it threatened to hold George Johnson a new adventure. George was born on April 16, 1935, in Portland, Oregon to Oline Tobine (Danielson) and Harold George Johnson. He grew up in the North Plains area on family property with his parents, an older sister, Olga, and both sets of grandparents. George went to grade school at the Mason Hill one room schoolhouse; he attended Holbrook junior high, and then went on to Scappoose Union High School, as it was then known. He played basketball and football, lettering in both each year. He graduated in 1954. In 1957 George met and married Marilyn Joan Levin. Soon after he joined the U.S. Army and they were off to Lawton, Okla., where they spent the next two years. They had two daughters, Joy Oline and Julie Kay. In 1970 they divorced. George had many occupations throughout his life. He owned a Union 76 service station, had his own janito-
rial business (Matt’s Maintenance), worked for Pacific Power and Light and Lucky Logger, and did long haul truck driving. However, his true passion was always for logging. One of George’s greatest blessings in life were his friends. He had so many good friends; some of whom he’d known since childhood. And there was nothing he enjoyed more than a good conversation. He loved to talk, but was just as good at listening. In his 40s, George returned to the family property and set up his own home. He lived there on the mountain until the last two years of his life when health issues required him to live with his youngest daughter, Julie and her family. George is survived by his sister, Olga, his two daughters, Joy and Julie, and two granddaughters, Pia and Tabatha. His youngest granddaughter, Kajra, preceded him in death in May 2011. George will be sorely missed, but there is no doubt he is in Heaven enjoying great conversations with friends and loved ones he hasn’t seen in quite awhile. Visitation was held Friday, June 7 at Columbia Funeral Home in St. Helens. The Funeral Service was held Monday, June 10 at 2 p.m. at the Old Scotch Church – 30685 Scotch Church Road in Hillsboro.

identified as wetlands –both of which she says are false. Zimmerman also said the Port’s own marketing materials indicate there is more than enough land ready for incoming applicants. ‘It’s fascinating that the Port has suddenly found the existence of wetlands to be a barrier to development. Over many years, the Port has marketed, improved, used sophisticated financing techniques and taken on great indebtedness to encourage development on the existing 700-plus vacant acres,” Zimmerman said. But Miranda said the marketing materials Zimmerman refers to are simply outdated and too old to be used as a rebuttal against the Port’s zoning request. “That information is old and misleading. The agreement mentioned was an old agreement between the Port and PGE dated 1999. At the time, PGE only operated the Beaver Plant, so PGE only excluded the footprint of the plant, which was 120.47 acres, making anything else part of the marketing agreement. What the person who brought this up failed to mention is that agreement has since been terminated by PGE through a letter received in 2007,” Miranda said. She also noted that since 1999, PGE has built a new power plant; Cascade Grain (which became Columbia

Many Highway 30 commuters well remember the sight of Carl Larson on his tractor, feeding the cattle on the east side of the highway on Scappoose Bay. As he crossed the road several times a day, his wife confessed that she always held her breath. Friends and family fondly remember his gentle way with animals, from his cattle, to Harvey the Turkey to Miss Piggy and his lapdog, Benjie. Carl was less visible in the last few years, as he was unable to climb aboard his tractor, yet he remained actively involved in directing his business through his sons and grandson. He is preceded in death by his parents, Signe and C.J. Larson, and his eldest son, Michael. He is survived by his wife of 62 years, Lorene; two sons and their wives, Mark and Dianne, Lance and Connie, and daughter-in-law, Diane, all of Warren; nine grandchildren and five greatgrandchildren. In the last few years, Carl often said, “You don’t know what it’s like to love somebody until you have greatgrandchildren.” In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in his name to Legacy Hospice Services, 815 NE Davis St., Portland, OR 97232; or to Bethany Memorial Fund, Bethany Lutheran Church, Warren, OR 97053. Walter H. Loyd Walter H. Loyd of Deer Island passed away on June 5 of kidney failure at the age of 99. He was born Sept. 27,
1913, to John and Harriett (Baker) Loyd, at their home in Deer Island. He had three sisters and four brothers. He attended grade school in Deer Island and graduated from Rainier High School in 1932. He Walter Loyd served as student body president, played football, basketball, and baseball, and attended Saturday night dances. After graduation he worked on the family farm raising hogs, veal, chickens, crops, and milked cows for cream. He worked for Deer Island Livestock from 1935–38, driving a team of horses. When his father passed away in 1938, he took over the family farm eventually establishing a Grade A dairy. On Sept. 23, 1945, he married Maxine Smith, at the United Methodist Church in St. Helens. Maxine joined Walter and his mom on the family dairy farm in Deer Island. They had two sons; Frank was born in 1946 and Robert in 1950. From 1958 to 1973 they owned and operated Lost Lake Resort in the Mt. Hood National Forest. He worked the “off season” from the lake resort at Houlton Hardware and Hammon Garbage Service in St. Helens. They retired to Deer Island where they raised cattle, put up hay, and had a large garden.
He looked forward to summer when he and Maxine were able to take all of their grandchildren camping and fishing. He was known for always lending a helping hand which led to many lifelong friendships throughout the state, including Burns, Condon, Ontario, and Dufur. Walter was active in the Deer Island Grange, Kinder Cemetery, 4-H, Boy Scouts, and the soil conservation district. He was an outdoor enthusiast. He said he had a fever for fishing, which he has passed along to his family. He also enjoyed hunting, clamming, gardening, horseback riding, playing cards, and camping. He loved to dance. Walter and Maxine attended dances on Saturday nights at Pumpkin Ridge Grange until her death in 2011. He was well known for storytelling and has left a century of memories to be cherished. He will be deeply missed. He is survived by his sons, Frank and his wife Dee, and Robert and his wife Jackie; seven grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren. A funeral service will be held on Saturday, June 15, at 10 a.m., at Warren Community Fellowship with private family burial at Bethany Memorial Cemetery.

Comcast recognizes leaders The Comcast Foundation has awarded more than $73,000 in scholarships to Oregon and Washington students, including two local students. Josiah Thurston, from St. Helens High School, and Jesse Hanson from Scappoose High School, each won $1,000 scholarships. A total of 65 students were awarded scholarships. Of those students, 15 were given iPad minis to use in college. Each student to receive a scholarship was selected based on their outstanding essays and
demonstrated leadership. “We are continually impressed with the leadership responsibilities and commitment to community service the students in Oregon and Southwest Washington take on while working hard to succeed academically,” said Rodrigo Lopez, regional vice president of Comcast Oregon and Southwest Washington. “These 65 students will undoubtedly do well in college and go on in life to inspire their peers to make change happen within their lives, schools and communities.”
Pacific University Pacific University in Forest Grove recently held its spring 2013 graduation ceremonies. Among those receiving degrees were several local area students.

Pacific Bio-Refinery and is now operated under Global Partners) has built a new plant, and the Clatskanie PUD has built a new substation. “There has been wetland mitigations built at the site to satisfy the new PGE power plant, and there has been new infrastructures created all throughout the site. As matter of fact, PGE’s termination letter addresses the fact that the marketing agreement was out dated and no longer reflected the current state of affairs considering PGE’s new plant and other development on site,” Miranda said. Port officials said the request was not tied to any specific project – such as Ambre Energy’s Port Morrow coal terminal project – but rather was brought forth because of a shortage of readily available industrial sites. “This request is not based on any particular project at this time. We are simply trying to align the Port purchased property and possible water accesses with the existing Port Westward Industrial Park,” said Port Deputy Executive Director Paula Miranda. According to Miranda, any specific project or applicants would have to go through additional approvals. The Planning Commission hearing begins at 6:30 p.m. For more information, call the Land Development Services office at 503-3971501.

Partial daytime lane closures at St. Johns Bridge The Oregon Department of Transportation will partially close lanes on the St. Johns Bridge to allow for a new raised median to be installed on the bridge’s north end. The partial lane closures will take place from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on weekdays until the project is complete by the end of June. Work got under way
this week. The project consists of a raised concrete traffic separator island down the middle of North Philadelphia Avenue at Syracuse Street in order to reinforce turn restrictions at the intersection. No lane closures will take place during weekday commute times or on weekends.
Elks Teen for May
St. Helens High School has announced that Dillon Crook has been selected as the Elks Teen of the month for May. Dillon is described as an outstanding young Dillon Crook man, one who takes his studies seriously, participates in extracurricular activities and does his best to get all that he can from each day. When he learned he had been selected as an Elks teen, Dillon said he was “Proud to be recognized as a deserving teen after seeing the great students and friends of mine chosen before me.” Dillon’s teachers say he is an outstanding scholar and 0061 one who works very hard 97-1154 to do his best. He has taken a very challenging course of study throughout his high school career and has met those challenges. One of Dillon’s most valuable characteristics is his desire to improve as a student. One of Dillon’s teachers said, “Dillon was very good at looking
critically at his work and asking how it could be better next time.” As a student he participates in class discussions and often brings a very calm and measured response, even when things are heating up. Dillon is very involved in school and the activities that school offers. He has been a member of student council and track and field for all four years of high school. Dillon is also a member of the robotics team and Link Crew. His peers respect him, his work ethic and his humility which was proven by his winning of the senior class treasurer position as well as being selected as a team captain for track and field After graduating, Dillon plans on attending Portland Community College and then transferring to Oregon Institute of Technology to pursue a career in Cardiovascular Imaging Technology. As for his best quality, Dillon said, “I’m naturally kind and loyal to others. I put others needs before my own and enjoy seeing people smile.” Dillon likes to camp, hunt travel and spend time with his friends and is described as an all around wonderful young man.
Columbia City issues water quality report In compliance with federal reporting requirements, the City of Columbia City has issued its annual report with the outcome of numerous quality tests. The city’s constant goal is to provide residents with a safe and dependable supply of drinking water. The cities of St. Helens and Columbia City test water frequently, and meet or exceed all quality standards required by federal and state requirements. All are required by the Oregon State Health Division to take two routine coliform bacteria water samples each month, along with other quarterly and yearly tests. According to the report, the city “continually upgrade[s] our distribution and storage systems by replacing old water mains, repairing leaks, change water meters, cleaning our storage reservoirs and updating system maps.” Columbia City has three
water storage reservoirs with a combined capacity of 1.4 million gallons, which meets the city’s storage demands. Its cross-connection program is designed to help
prevent any potentially contaminated water from re-entering the city water supply. Columbia City requires a backflow assembly where
that potential exists in our system to ensure quality drinking water. The full report is available online at TheChronicleOnline.com.
Summer road projects include Fishhawk Lake Bridge and Nick Thomas Road The Columbia County Road Department recently began work on two projects. The department began replacement of the Fishhawk Lake Bridge on June 10, with completion of the project expected in three months, around Sept. 30. During this time residents and homeowners should expect to see an increase in construction traffic and workers on site. The bridge will remain one lane during construction, but drivers should expect delays. The bridge will be completed in staged construction with transfer of traffic onto the new section expected mid-August.
The replacement of the east end of the lake crossing Fishhawk Creek was awarded funding for replacement in 2008. Funding was awarded from the Federal Highway Administration and the project was designed and will be managed by Parametrix of Portland. Construction contract was awarded to Rotschy Inc. of Vancouver, Wash. Nick Thomas Road The road department also began work on Nick Thomas Road. The work will take approximately three weeks, with completion expected by June 27.
Nick Thomas was closed during the winter of 2012, after large rainfalls occurred in December, which caused the roadway to slump. With the increase danger that a major slide would completely destroy the existing roadway, County Road Department personnel completed an engineering evaluation of the slide area, which was then monitored for much of the year while the plans for repair were completed. Crews will begin excavation of the loose slide material during the week of June 10. After excavation and removal of the loose slide material, a drainage
system will be installed to remove water pressure from further eroding the hillside. Crews will also place geo-tech fabric over layers of rock to further support the roadway if moisture continues to be an issue. This is one of the largest slide repair projects to be completed in the county in recent years. Residents and homeowners in both areas should expect to see an increase in construction traffic and workers on site. For further information regarding either repair project, contact the County Road Department office at 503-397-5090.

SHEDCO, Columbia Arts Guild install storefront art
The St. Helens Economic Development Corporation and the Columbia Arts Guild recently joined together in a collaborative effort to install storefront art into the former J.C. Penny building on Columbia River Boulevard in St. Helens. The 30-foot section of window space now displays a variety of artwork by local artists, including collages by Dave Anderson, collages and paintings by Luanne Kreutzer, paintings by Loretta Sampson, basketry by A. Woods, drawings by Teresa Knight, ceramic pottery by Cody Galwin, and a drawing by
Antonia Doggett. The storefront art project is a part of the Main Street program, spearheaded by SHEDCO with the support of the Columbia Arts Guild. The goal of the project is to beautify St. Helens’ main streets, encouraging economic vitality, and to provide exposure for local artists. Building owners allow the display of artwork until their building becomes occupied, enhancing the visual appeal of their building. There are no consignment fees or any other charges for the program. Artists and
property owners can contact SHEDCO to participate. The St. Helens Economic Development Corporation works to support small businesses, organize community and business education events and promote St. Helens. For more information, visit their website at shedc.org.

Hiking horse trails through the tall trees
I
t’s easy to get lost when you’re out hiking. Trails weave around woodlands to the point where, if you’re not careful, you’re not sure if you need to go left or right at the next fork. Luckily, on the latest expedition, we never once got lost on the trail. We only got lost looking for the start of the trail. After winding our way from Clatskanie past Mist and Kyle Boggs Birkenfeld, we eventually saw the sign to turn toward Northrup Creek Horse Trail. We drove in, past the campsites and horse stalls toward the day use parking. Noticing the main trail was closed because of logging in the area, we hit Big Tree Trail. The trail was short, but filled with – you guessed it – big trees. The path, no more than a quarter-mile, had a half-dozen mammoth trees that probably took up residence a century or so before Oregon became a state. The tallest of them is estimated at about 140 feet. But we didn’t drive an hour-and-a-half for a 30-minute hike. Time to investigate the big trail. “Should we see why it’s closed?” Sam asked me. See TRIALS, Page A15
THE ALL-AMERICAN RUNNER SHHS GRAD RYAN WAITE FINISHES HIS COLLEGE CAREER AT BYU AS A 2ND-TEAM ALL-AMERICAN KYLE BOGGS / The Chronicle
Ryan Waite starts the 800 meters at the 2013 NCAA Division I Outdoor Track & Field Championships at Hayward Field on June 5. BY KYLE BOGGS The Chronicle
T
here was no fairy tale ending to the dream, but Ryan Waite still lived out the dream that began on the track at St. Helens High School a decade ago. Waite finished 15th out of 24 qualifiers in the 800 meters at the 2013 NCAA Division I Outdoor Track & Field Championships on June 5. This year’s championship meet was held at Hayward Field at the University of Oregon – the same venue where Waite burst onto the national scene as a high school senior. At the 2006 state championship meet, Waite set a meet record with a time of 1:50.67 to win his second straight state title and be named a high school All-American. In
an unusual twist, his time seven years later at the national championship meet was 1:50.57. “I looked up at the board when I finished and I thought, ‘I ran faster than that in high school,’” Waite said shortly after his race ended. “It’s rough. I’m a little emotional right now because I can’t grasp that’s how it ended. It’s OK; I had a great career. I had a great freshman year running here at Oregon and my sophomore through senior years at BYU have been unbelievable.” In each of those three years at BYU, Waite reached collegiate track’s biggest stage. He ran the 800 at the NCAA Outdoor Championships as a sophomore in 2010, earned honorable mention All-America honors as a junior in 2012 and was second team All-America this year with that 15th-place finish. To his credit he also has first-team and
second-team All-America indoor track honors from his junior season and another second-team spot from this year’s indoor season. Despite that hefty resume of accomplishments, the competitor inside Waite had hoped for a bit more. “It’s bittersweet. It didn’t go the way I wanted,” Waite said. “This is where the state championship was every year in high school. Coming back here, you have all those memories and it’s just unfortunate it didn’t go the way those state championship meets went back in high school.” At those meets, he collected three state titles: Two individually in the 800 and another as part of the 4x400 relay team his senior year. Those championships helped Waite gain entry into St. Helens Sports See WAITE, Page A16

Local barrel racer heads to nationals Three Indians are Ireland McDonough, a sixth-grader at Lewis and Clark Elementary School, will represent the state of Oregon at the National Junior High Finals Rodeo in barrel racing June 23-29. McDonough, 12, qualified through a series of Oregon Junior High Rodeo Association rodeos in Prineville this spring. In addition to being one of the top four scorers in the barrel racing event, she needed to maintain a high grade point average to be selected as well. McDonough has competed locally at the Columbia County Fair and Rodeo’s kids night the last three years, taking first place in barrel racing twice. Her mother, Wendy, said Ireland also competes in a lot of barrel races at Strobel’s Arena in Scappoose, the Clark County Saddle Club in Vancouver and “anywhere else we can find a good barrel race.” This year, McDonough is sponsored by Cascade Natural Gas. In addition to barrel racing, McDonough also competes in breakaway roping, ribbon roping, pole bending and goat tying. The national finals will be the biggest competition to date for Ireland and her horse, Lovett. More than 1,000 contestants from 41 states, five Canadian provinces and Australia will be at the competi-
All-State players Scappoose High’s senior shortstop Cassidy Hoglund was picked to the 2013 Class 4AAll-State softball honorable mention team and two SHS juniors were honorable mention All-State baseball players. Hoglund, who has signed a letter of intent to play at Oregon Tech, hit .381 as a senior. She hit eight home runs and drove in 31 runs. This is the third time Hoglund has been an honorable mention All-State pick, an honor she received after her freshman and sophomore seasons. She was first-team AllState as a junior. Oregon Tech plays in the Cascade Collegiate Conference of the NAIA. Juniors Will Sprute and Hunter Hoyt both earned AllState recognition for the first time. Sprute was the team’s ace pitcher and also provided
power in the middle of the lineup. Hoyt anchored the Tribe’s defense from his spot at shortstop. He also gave the Indians a consistent bat at the top of the order.

TRIALS: creek makes a nice cool-off spot along the hiking trail
From PAGE A14
“May as well. If it gets too dicey we can always turn around,” I answered. It didn’t get too dicey, per se, but 40 minutes into the hike we came across a clear cut. Here it was pretty clear that we didn’t need to go any farther. The logging operation in the middle of the path makes a good obstacle. Back down we went, unsure whether this was going to turn into a wasted day or not. Only then did we realize how foolish we had been. A short walk over the bridge near the day use parking revealed a wide turnaround for horse trailers, more horse stalls and a sign marking the start of the trail. (Let that be a lesson: Park at day use, walk over the only bridge in sight, then start the trail where it was meant to be started. Be sure to hit the Big Tree Trail too, but treat that as an appetizer, or maybe save it for dessert.) So now, roughly an hour after we got to the destination, we were ready to start the hike. And it was worth the (largely unnecessary) wait. Immediately we were strolling down a wide, wellmaintained trail devoid of any sign of recent horse traffic. The Big Tree Trail we checked out earlier turned out to be only a prelude to the monstrous Sitkas and big leaf maples. Some were alive and thriving; others were hollowed out; even more
were fallen and playing host to other trees and plants growing out of them. For any tree lover, this path is a paradise. Other than giving something to look at, the trees offered a much more tangible benefit as well. For a fairskinned fellow like myself, the shaded trail was a haven of sorts. While I recommend keeping the sunscreen handy, a little canopy cover can go a long way toward keeping you cool – and not red – on what ended up being a threeand-a-half hour hike (including our detours). We came across a couple other cool-off spots along the hike. As I was stooping down to get a photo of Northrup Creek, Sam decided to plunge in. Jumping may not be the best bet – it was only about two feet deep in this little pool – but popping into the creek to cool off on a hot day isn’t a bad idea. Of course if you miss out on that opportunity, your hand will be forced a bit later. A little more than three miles into the hike, Cow Creek interrupts the trail. There’s no bridge crossing so we had to ford the river, never getting in deeper than our knees. After hiking at Multnomah Falls the weekend prior, the Northrup Creek Loop Trail had another sought-after trait: solitude. There was one couple at the campground. Other than that, we didn’t see a single solitary soul that wasn’t on the clock. It was a welcomed change from the constant

path-crowding and shoulderdodging that’s necessary at some of the busier hiking spots around the region. We also lucked out in that along the whole trip, we had to dodge only a couple of horse “presents.” Because of the logging going on, however, we weren’t able to complete the whole loop, which is said to be about 8.5 miles. Instead we cut back up Northrup Creek Road once the trail intersected with it roughly four miles into the hike. A mile or two down the gravel road later, we were back at the Jeep. Aside from a pit stop for cheeseburgers at the Goble Tavern, the way back was a straight shot without any straying from the prescribed path.

Boosters Hall of Fame. His efforts after high school, however, put him into an even more exclusive club of St. Helens athletes. In the last half-century, only two other Lions have gone on to compete for collegiate championships: Gary Barger, who finished third nationally in the steeplechase in 1975, and Seth Simons, who was eighth in the steeplechase at the 1988 NCAA Championships. Both ran at the University of Oregon after their time in St. Helens. Waite’s former high school coach said it was no surprise to see Waite competing against the best of the best multiple times. After Waite clocked the nation’s second-fastest 800-meter time as a high school senior, Gerry Tinkle watched him run at the Nike National Meet in Greensboro, N.C., where Waite finished third. A number of things, Tinkle said, set Waite apart from the competition. “He was physically very strong, and tall,” Tinkle said, mentioning Waite’s 6’3” frame. “And then confidence. He always had confidence. You have to be able to have confidence to go out fast and know that you’re gonna be able to hold that.” He was able to maintain that level of confidence and fitness through a variety of life events that entered the picture. After one season with the Oregon Ducks, Waite served in the California San

With a time of 1:50.57, Waite finished 15th and earned second-team AllAmerican. RIGHT: As a senior at St. Helens High school in 2006, Waite set a state meet record in the 800m with a time of 1:50.67.

After his sophomore season in 2010, he sat out the 2011 season with an injury. Still, the conversations he had in high school remained
fresh in his mind seven years later. “It’s a dream come true,” Waite said when asked to explain the journey that took him from dual meets at St. Helens High School to the NCAA Championship Meet. “I remember in high school with my coaches and my teammates always talking about ‘When I’m in college, when I get to run at the NCAA championships, when I get to run at the Stanford Invitational,’ or whatever meet it was. I think every high school team has those conversations and they hope that they get to do that. “I know that such a small percentage of athletes actually get to do that, so the fact that I was one of them means
a lot to me. I’m proud of what I’ve accomplished, but just like anyone else, I wish I would have accomplished a little more,” Waite said. That desire to accomplish more has Waite eying a way to continue his involvement in running, whether still competing or as a coach. However, his immediate focus has shifted from the track to his family. Ryan and his wife Ashlynn are expecting a baby girl in about a month. “That’s the thing in life I’m most excited about right now. I’m sad about this [race], obviously, but I can’t be sad about my life right now. It’s unbelievable,” he said. His competitive run –
