Fourth of July festivities are back with a bang BY SHARI PHIEL The Chronicle

ST. HELENS — The skies were quiet over St. Helens last Fourth of July, leaving many frustrated and disappointed. For the first time in 60 years, there wasn’t a fireworks display to celebrate the nation’s birthday. Thankfully, that won’t be the case this year. Volunteers from the St. Helens Economic Development Corporation have been working diligently to ensure this year’s Independence Day celebration will be bigger and better than ever. With a theme of “A Time to Remember,” the festivities will include watching fireworks from Columbia View Park and the St. Helens City Docks, and there will be activities for the whole family scheduled throughout the day. Volunteers are still needed for different events all day long. Finding the money to pay for the annual fireworks display has always been a challenge. Along with having a 6-foot tall donations can at the 13 Nights on the River concert series, volunteers have been working to find donations elsewhere. “Businesses have been really fantastic in stepping up,” said SHEDCO board member Jeannine Duehren. This year’s theme will also play a role in the activities presented throughout the day. Organizers are hoping to capture some of the nostalgia from times gone by. “In the past they used to have the great events… they had all these funny, quirky events, people would bring their picnic baskets and everybody had a great time,” Duehren added. “Not only can we have a nice event and do fun things, we can make a difference.” Some of the events, like the pet parade and the Elks pancake breakfast, will see proceeds donated back to help the community, while others, like the ice cream eating competition, kids bike parade, classic car show or scavenger hunt, are all about having fun. This year’s Fourth of July celebration is sure to have something for everyone. Of course, donations are still needed and being accepted. Donations can be made at any Wauna Federal Credit Union care of the “Fireworks Fund.” For additional information, call event organizer Melissa Sarafin at 503-366-8232 or Melissas@ci.st-helens.or.us.

An Oregon City man has been charged with second-degree manslaughter after he allegedly caused a fatal accident on U.S. Highway 30 south of Scappoose.

Oregon City man charged in fatal accident BY SHARI PHIEL The Chronicle

Mark Alan Thomas, the 39-yearold Oregon City man accused of causing a crash on U.S. Highway 30 that killed Scappoose resident Wayne Harvey McCormick, appeared in court at the Portland Justice Center on June 24 for arraignment on charges related to the accident. Thomas has been charged with second-degree manslaughter and driving under the influence and is being held at the Multnomah County Jail on more than $250,000 bail. According to a probable cause affidavit filed in court, blood tests revealed that Thomas had used methamphetamines, marijuana and benzodiazepine before the accident. After leaving a Portland residence at around 9:30 a.m. on June 18, Thomas was reportedly driving his Mazda Tribute west on U.S. Highway 30 as he headed to Astoria to check

himself into rehab. Near milepost 16, about three miles south of Scappoose, Thomas’ car crossed the center paved median on the highway and struck the side of an eastbound Mark Thomas Buick Century driven by McCormick After impact, both vehicles came to rest several hundred feet apart and were partially blocking the highway. McCormick was pronounced dead at the scene. Thomas was taken to Legacy Emanuel Medical Center by LifeFlight helicopter with serious injuries. Although he was scheduled to appear in court on June 20, his appearance was rescheduled because of his injuries. While in the hospital, Thomas told

investigators he has used methamphetamines and had been drinking alcohol, along with taking several Xanax both the night before and in the morning hours just before the crash. The Multnomah County District Attorney’s office is convening a grand jury this week to seek an indictment in the case. Thomas is scheduled for a second court appearance on July 2. If convicted, Thomas would serve a minimum of 75 months under Oregon’s mandatory sentencing guidelines. The accident and subsequent closure of the highway caused significant traffic delays with much of the traffic from the highway being rerouted to Rocky Point Road and Skyline Boulevard. Highway 30 was reopened around 5:15 p.m. that evening. OSP was additionally assisted at the scene by the Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office, Gresham Police Department, Troutdale Police Department and Scappoose Rural Fire District.

Get hooked New store offers various delights for craft conscious shoppers

Melanie Gulbrandson, right, gets a helping hand from her daughter, Kristy Morley, with her new store in Olde Towne.

BY SHARI PHIEL The Chronicle

ST. HELENS — When Melanie Gulbrandson found herself without a job after working at Fred Meyers for more than 18 years – with 17 of those years in management – she turned to one of her lifelong passions to build a future. Gulbrandson recently opened Mo’s Art, Hook and Needle in Olde Towne. “I’ve been knitting for close to 30 years,” said Gulbrandson. “I just have a love for it and I’ve always wanted my own shop.” Mo’s carries a full line of yarn, from inexpensive acrylics at around $3 per skein to high quality wool and silk yarn in the $20 per skein range. There are also cotton, bamboo and sock yarns, lace yarns and feltable wool that is washable. Regardless of your interest or skill level, there’s something for every taste. “I brought in a line of acrylic – both from Cascade Yarn and Universal Yarn, who I get my yarn through – because I know the de-

mographics of the area,” she said. “People here watch their pennies. But it’s good quality. It’s reasonable but it’s good quality.” Along with yarns of every color and kind, there is also a wide array of accessories for the knitter, crocheter or other yarn centric craft. Along with point guards (for knitting needles, not basketball) and yarn winders, Mo’s also has a variety of knitting and crocheting needles, cases and bags, beads, and finished items like hats and scarves to purchase. Gulbrandson’s goal is to create a fun, relaxing and creative environment where patrons can come, sit and have a cup of coffee, maybe take a class, work on a project or just exchange ideas. “I want a friendly place. I want it to be a home away from home. If somebody is having a stressed out day and they want to come sit, I want them to come here,” she adds. Gulbrandson is bringing a little of her own home to the shop. Her daughter Kristy Morley will also be helping out in the shop on a regular basis. In fact, Kristy is hoping to turn one of the shop’s empty rooms

into a full-fledged coffee shop so patrons can sit outside during the summer months and watch the ships coming down the river. Along with selling knit and crochet-related goods, Gulbrandson is also working on a schedule of classes. Some will be for beginner level knitters, while others will be geared to more advanced crafters. ‘I’m going to have workshops, open workshops on the weekends. I may even have some evening ones,” she said. Her first class will be on creating the vest that is currently on display in the store entrance. “From years of experience and working with people, I’ve found that not all people learn the same. What I’m going to do in the beginning class is go over everything in the pattern, step by step,” she said. “After that, I will be able to work with them as I go.” Mo’s Art, Hook and Needle is at 161 St. Helens Street. Store hours are 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., everyday but Thursday when the store is open until 8:30 p.m. For more information or to sign up for a workshop, call 503-366-9276.

Police rescue injured heron ST. HELENS — Police officers from the St. Helens Police Department responded to a June 14 call regarding a bird blocking the intersection of N. Second Street and Columbia Boulevard. When Officer Anthony Miltich and Sgt. Joe Hogue arrived at the scene, they discovered a three-foot tall blue heron standing in the roadway. According to officials, the bird was behaving like it was injured and would not leave the road when the officers attempted to startle the bird to the safety of the sidewalk. Miltich wrapped the bird in burlap, and the heron was transported to Dove Lewis Animal Hospital for assessment.

Dove Lewis kept the bird overnight before giving it to the Audubon Society of Portland for monitoring. The blue heron has a bacterial infection in its eye that is preventing it from flying. According to Deb Schaffer, a veterinarian for the Audubon Society, the heron is doing somewhat better although she said the bird was not out of the wood. Along with the continuing eye infection, Schaffer said the heron also had parasites that it is now being treated for. The Audubon Society will continue to monitor the bird until the infection has cleared. It is hoped that the heron will be released back into the wild once its medical issues have been resolved.

Clatskanie Delores was born in Ames, Iowa, and grew up on chicken ranches in California. She has lived in Columbia County for 24 years, is married with four children, 12 grandchildren, seven great-grandchildren and two great-great-grandchildren. She was a State Farm Insurance agent for 20 years, had her own real estate agency, and also sold and designed display advertising and small sections for weekly newspapers.

For 31 years she worked for the Interstate Trust Dept. Her company, Homestead Clearing, helped elderly clients sell their belongings and their homes so the proceeds could pay for their care in retirement and nursing homes. After retiring she continued to work and volunteer for 20 hours a week at the Vernonia School District.

Summer health care available for students For the first time, schoolbased health centers in St. Helens, Rainier and Vernonia will be open during the summer months to take care of students’ health care needs. All clinics will continue access to mental health services through the summer. Sherrie Ford, coordinator for the foundation’s centers, said that she will be looking at data at the end of the season to see if there is a

demand for the clinics over the summer. “If there is, we’ll budget for future summers. We know that some of our student patients do not have primary care providers or are unable to get to their providers,” said Ford. “With summer access to the local clinics, they will be ready to learn in the fall.” The Sacajawea center at Lewis and Clark Elementary School in St. Helens will

serve students from both St. Helens and Scappoose two days a week. The center will be open Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 9 a.m.–4 p.m. The Rainier StudentBased Health Center, in the Rainier School Campus, will be open Tuesday and Wednesday from 10 a.m.–3 p.m. Spencer Clinic in Vernonia will be open Tuesdays from 8 a.m.–5 p.m. at the

Vernonia Clinic office at 510 Bridge Street. The Vernonia Clinic will be open Mondays and Wednesdays, from 8 a.m.–5 p.m.

Construction on fairgrounds substation to begin soon DEER ISLAND — Columbia River People’s Utility District (PUD) will soon begin construction of a new substation at the Columbia County Fairgrounds in St. Helens. The Fairgrounds Substation will be on Bachelor Flat Road and is expected to be energized in early 2014. PUD officials say it will accommodate growth in the St. Helens and Warren areas and provide an alternate source of power for customers served by neighboring PUD substations. “Construction of the Fairgrounds Substation is part of our multi-year substation improvement plan,” said Engineering and Operations Manager Steve Hursh. “In addition to building this new substation, we are replacing aging equipment and creating vital links between our substations that will help us to continue to provide reliable service to our customers.” The PUD purchased the substation property from Columbia County in 2010. The site was chosen for its proximity to BPA transmission lines and to Warren and west St. Helens, which are two areas where residential development is expected. The parcel of land where the substation will be built includes an access road that was previously used by a neighboring racetrack and baseball field. Once construction fencing is erected, visitors to these facilities will use an alternate route. The PUD is using local companies for several parts of the substation construction project. Lower Columbia Engineering of St. Helens provided the design work for the required street improvements and site drainage at the substation property. In Octo-

ber 2010, TFT Construction of Scappoose completed the street improvements, including curbs, gutters, and sidewalks. Temporary construction fencing will be installed at the beginning of July and Lonny Brady Excavating of Warren will begin to prepare the site for the 50-ton transformer, the steel structure, and other substation equipment a week later. A small control house will contain specialized equipment that will remotely control and monitor the substation. Columbia River PUD notes that substations play a vital role in the electrical grid. A transformer in the substation takes high-voltage electricity from the transmission lines and reduces it to a lower voltage that is sent out onto the distribution lines that run throughout the PUD’s service area. A single substation can serve several thousand homes and businesses. Within the PUD’s service area, adjoining substations are linked together so that if one substation is affected by an outage or is taken out of service for maintenance, its customers can be served by another substation. In 2012, the PUD replaced a 50-year old transformer at the Scappoose Substation with a new, larger transformer that is identical to the one that will be installed in the new Fairgrounds Substation. Similar transformers will be purchased to replace older transformers at the Rosehill Substation in St. Helens in 2015 and at the St. Helens Substation in 2017. Hursh said he expects the site work to be complete by August, and the transformer and control house to be installed by October.

The grand opening and dedication to the City of St Helens will be held 12:30–1 p.m., at Columbia View Park and will include a ribbon cutting, group photos, and prizes for the best Splash It Up! costume ensemble contest for kids (ages 1-10), celebration cupcakes and giveaways for the kids.

TRASHCAN PAINTING Back for its third year, the St. Helens Arts Council is sponsoring a trashcan painting competition in Columbia View Park from 9:30 a.m.–4 p.m. The winner will be announced at 5 p.m. Cash prizes of $200 will be given for the trashcan with the most artistic merit and best park theme. The theme of painted trashcan should be a recognizable aspect of the parks in St. Helens. Although the registration deadline has passed, the competition also makes for a great spectator sport, allowing visitors to check in several times throughout the day to check on the progress teams are making. The finished trashcans will be placed in public places throughout the city.

13 NIGHTS ON THE RIVER CONCERTS The weekly Thursday night concert series coincides with the Fourth this year, which means there will be plenty of musical entertainment throughout the day. There will be several musical acts performing. Summer Januaries takes the stage at 1 p.m., Midnight Serenaders is on at 2:45 p.m. and The Sweetwater Band plays from 7–10 p.m., followed by a spectacular fireworks presentation at dusk.

SPLASH IT UP! Last fall, local residents – especially those of a younger age – had the opportunity to give the Splash It Up! park a trial run. The test opening was designed to uncover and resolve any problem areas prior to the dedication of the spray park. Originating from the Class of 2009 Ford Family Leadership program, the Splash It Up! project began taking shape four years ago. The scope of this project was much larger than the initial intent of the leadership class but a very small and dedicated group remained from the original class, and trudged on to ensure completion of the project. The Splash It Up! project was originally estimated at over $130,000. After two years of community presentations and an arduous process of obtaining approvals, the group launched a fundraising project that not only obtained needed funding but also contributed to the design of the spray park. However, the team credits the generosity of community businesses in pulling the project together with a generous community grant and the balance provided by in-kind contribu-

“EVERYMAN’S WAR” MOVIE PREMIERE This independent, award winning film directed by Oregon native Thad Smith was released on DVD in 2010 and is based on the true story of Sgt. Don Smith of the 94th Infantry Division. The film, primarily set in Nenning, Germany – site of the famous Battle of the Bulge – during January of 1945, follows Sgt. Smith as he tries to find courage in the face of overwhelming opposition. Subzero, blizzard conditions have convinced Allied Forces high command that Germany won’t attack. But as the pre-dawn attack comes, Sgt. Smith finds his squad dug in on a ridgeline and communications down. He must now find his way through enemy fire, unarmed and wounded, into town and warn of the coming attack. The movie is the perfect tribute to those who have fought to keep our country free. “Everyman’s War” will be shown in the Columbia Center at the St. Helens Public Library at 2 p.m. Tickets are $25, which includes admission to the film, a signed movie poster, refreshments and a VIP meet and greet with Thad Smith.

achievement award The Columbia County Board of Commissioners received notification that the county (as a grant recipient) was selected to receive the 2013 National Association of Counties Achievement Award for Transportation for the NW Oregon Transit Alliance project. The transit alliance project is a partnership of five rural transit agencies in northwestern Oregon, including: Columbia (CCRider Transportation), Clatsop (Sunset Empire Transportation District), Tillamook (Tillamook County Transportation District), Lincoln (Lincoln County Transportation District) and Benton districts. According to CCRider, the connector project is a collaborative effort to enhance the long-term livability and economic vitality of the rural communities it serves by increasing transit use, while helping these communities preserve their unique character. This landmark Oregon project serves as a model for other communities throughout the nation. The project was funded by a $3.5 million U.S. Department of Energy General Innovation Fund grant, with the goal of increasing transit use by commuters and visitors in northwestern Oregon, and by better connecting communities on the Oregon Coast to the I-5 corridor; improving service and removing transit barriers between the counties; and coordinating route, schedule, and fare structures. By implementing these steps, the alliance project hopes to reduce dependence on fossil fuels and promote rural community sustainability.

Letters Carte blanche Recently we here at Big Meadow Farm had a bad experience with representatives from the county assessor’s office. I stopped my chores to approach a woman and her helper in a sedan parked near my gate. They were snapping photographs of my boarding kennel, the dogs and my house. This is not allowed because ours is private property, the dogs are the property of other people and they are in my care and custody while their owners are out of town. Naturally, I challenged these intruders. Had they called to make an appointment? No. Did they come to my door to announce themselves and ask my permission to snoop around? No. She expected me to allow her to trespass and take all the photos she darn well pleased. She told me that her office was busy revaluing properties. I shouldn’t bother to call her office to check the story with her boss because he was on vacation. She further argued that since they let her wander about down at the stock ranch, I should have no problem with her coming in. Frankly, I hate it when people try to pull the stock ranch “card” when they want to trespass on my property... it happens all the time, you should know. And, it’s irritating. I like the folks down there... but this is my land and they don’t make the rules here, thank you very much (I wonder if those folks get told the same story in reverse when people want to wander around down there). I am angry as heck about this woman thinking she could drive all over my place taking photographs and such. What would have happened had I not been near the gate when she came in? She might just as well have been some kind of undercover reporter for some animal rights group that would like to shut down all the pet animal service providers. And, I tell you, our industry’s legislative/legal alert people and my colleagues/ friends in this business warn me of such shenanigans all the time. As I become angrier about this woman’s intrusion, I remind myself that we get inspected regularly by our polite and knowledgeable animal control officer. He’s a good guy and is well versed enough to know that calling for an appointment is mandatory. Plus, he has good manners. Add to that, the vector control people know to alert us of their comings and goings. It seems other departments in the county aren’t so courteous. Our sheriff tells country residents to be prepared to provide our own first line of defense and that is, of course, what we do. I don’t care if somebody is a bible salesman, a process server, a prospective client, or somebody from a county office. There’s a right and a wrong way to handle these things. I urge you to make county employees aware that carte blanche is not the order of the day. Lynn Tweedt-Rabinowe, Deer Island

A5Opinion

Opinion Speedbump

Commission got it right The Columbia County Planning Commission’s recent decision in a 5-1 vote to deny the Port of St Helens massive expansion at Port Westward was not just about the planning commissioners listening to farmers and environmentalists. The Planning Commission’s decision was also about them listening to business people and investors such as myself who see dividing Columbia County in half by excessive rail traffic as a bad business decision. The Port’s zoning change request was for a type of zoning that is not for job creating, labor-intensive manufacturing plants, instead it is for land intensive but low permanent employment uses. The most likely use for this land if the Port gets its land rezoned is bulk commodity transportation by rail, which is highly automated. The Port and some local politicians have tried to convince the public by saying that there has been research to prove that thousands of additional rail cars passing through Columbia County per day would not be a problem to business transportation, job creation, schools, economic development, emergency access, and quality of life. These people site a 2009 safety study designed for four unit trains a week not 100 or more this land zone change could allow. As an investor and businessperson, I should not have to worry about big government trying to grow its size at any price, raise my taxes by unfunded transportation issues, lower my property values, and hurt the many small businesses that lease space from me. The county commissioners should decline the Port’s application and the Port can reapply once they provide a non-biased transportation and economic impact study to show what the negative and positive impacts of a massive increase in rail traffic would be. The Port should make informed decisions based on facts as any private sector business would so why does the Port insist on making uninformed decisions. Please let the county commissioners know that you do not want Port Westward rezoning which will allow the county’s transportation system to be cut in half and reduce longterm employment. Brian Rosenthal, Scappoose Time to mediate The Appellate Court of Oregon has asked the Columbia Health District, Columbia County Commissioners and the City of St. Helens to mediate the lawsuit over the remaining assets of the Columbia Health District. The main asset is the $3.3 million property located on Millard Road. CHD has offered mediation several times in the past to no avail. This time, at the request of the appellate court, the county commissioners agreed to the mediation to resolve the issue if the City of St. Helens would agree to mediate.

Unfortunately for health district taxpayers, mediation will not happen because the City of St. Helens refuses to mediate. The city believes they have the right to benefit from taxes collected outside the city limits, which includes the cities of Scappoose, Columbia City, Deer Island and the remainder of the rural areas, which paid into the CHD. The greed, pocket picking and total indifference to the people in the Columbia Health District being displayed by the City of St. Helens is reprehensible. Striving to receive tax dollars from taxpayers who receive no benefits from the city and are not compelled by law to be liable for any taxes designated for the city is unacceptable. The City of St. Helens simply wants a windfall of millions into their coffers, not caring that the taxpayers voted to receive a credit from the assets from the CHD to which the taxpayers are rightfully entitled. The sole purpose of the CHD board and their trustee is to follow the voters mandate and sell the property on Millard Road and credit back to the taxpayers their share of the CHD assets. Their hope at mediation was to come to an agreement that would have been the best outcome for this travesty for which the taxpayers continue to pay. The CHD board and their trustee, at their own personal expense, will continue legal action on behalf of the taxpayers against the blatant theft of taxpayer assets. The county and the City of St. Helens are spending your tax dollars in legal fees in order to ensure the theft of your CHD assets. If you are not in agreement with the actions taken by the City of St. Helens and want a fair outcome on this issue, please contact the Mayor of St. Helens, Randy Peterson, city councilpersons and the Columbia County Commissioners and demand that they work with the CHD for an agreeable solution.

cret thing. If it’s in the paper it’s passed on as knowledge, in print, building our community. Man oh man why not take that risks, write it down, put it in print! Dean D. Ebert, St. Helens

But what was it that was so important we don’t get to know about? My father always said if there was question, get in touch with your local paper. If it’s so, it’ll be in print! So no matter what has taken place with man’s discoveries in development. Now computers do for man the same as the horse did by giving a helping hand in development of this nation. There’s no question the horse is now part of history given the excitement about last weekend parade. Each in our own way we took part in, or by enjoying what others had presented. All this is taking part in our community and the paper took an account. Now adequate information as all of us took part, and it didn’t even cost a buck!

Traffic un-control I left St. Vincent’s around 2:30 p.m. today (June 18). We came back over Cornelius Pass to Highway 30. There were no warnings, routing signs or traffic control on Cornelius Pass anywhere. We got to Highway 30 where we were rerouted back up Logie Road to Skyline, where three quarters of the way to the top was a huge, fully loaded log truck stuck blocking one and a half of the two lanes. Why did they even let that truck go up there? I drove north on Skyline to Rocky Mountain and then

Why newspapers? I’m taking this time to say, “Newspapers!” Why newspapers? In years past, newspapers were thought to die out when radio came about. Not so. We have radio talk shows! Just when one would think all things were smooth going. TV has the newspapers take another hit, having papers think they’re getting a bad rap. Like always, the papers returned with a successful comeback. From that day in the cave when man did his wall finger writings telling of his accomplishments in his life. Then man obtained tree bark to mark on also thin hides. Next came rolled up writings called scrolls, then on to parchment paper to write down man’s testament of history. Now man can print his important documents into a computer by the touch of a key. I understand those on blogs, Twitter, on and on are in touch with each other.

back down to Highway 30 again. We were amongst drivers who had to go to the bathroom, were running out of gas, and whose cars were overheating because of the slow, crawling amassed traffic. It would be nice if they had warning signs and/or traffic control. The whole of the traffic control was directing people from Highway 30 to go up the hill via Rocky Point and/or Logie Trail. With all of the wrecks on Highway 30, you would think they would have premade signs that they could set up at strategic places so traffic wouldn’t be so horrid and confused. They apparently opened Highway 30 right about when we got back down the hill for the second time. Grrr. Sari Swick, St. Helens

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

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

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

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.”

The goal is to determine which sites fit the need for a public park-n-ride facility that would serve as a public transit hub for the Scappoose service area.

Input and involvement from local area residents is an important part of CCRider’s planning process. The project being explored has emerged from initial stakeholders meetings, which included Columbia County Rider, local business owners, the City of Scappoose, ODOT and community members. Scappoose City Council members voted down a request from CCRider to approve a new Havlik Road bus

RODEO SCHOLARSHIP IS ALL ROPED UP

Scappoose High grad Blake Sofich will rope and ride at UNLV — one of the top collegiate rodeo schools BY KYLE BOGGS The Chronicle

lake Sofich is headed to Las Vegas, and he’s taking his horse with him. The University of Nevada, Las Vegas is well known for its Runnin’ Rebels basketball teams coached by Jerry Tarkanian. Those teams were among the most entertaining in the nation, and pretty good too, making four Final Fours. Flying – or better yet, riding – under the radar of those Rebels’ teams is UNLV’s rodeo team. Year-in and year-out, that team is one of the tops in the country and has produced 15 national titles – team and individual – since 1993. Among UNLV’s most decorated cowboy alums is Molalla product and Professional Bull Riders Association Hall of Famer Ross Coleman. Ready to join the long list of accomplished riders is Sofich, a 2013 Scappoose High School graduate. The Warren resident received a rodeo scholarship from UNLV. In August, he’ll hitch his horse trailer to his new pickup and make a 1,000-mile drive to the desert. Once there, he plans to study business — and try to fill a major void on the rodeo team. Sofich said he’s going to compete in team roping and steer wrestling at UNLV. At this year’s College National Finals Rodeo, UNLV took first and second in

start. For the out-of-towners recruited based on their assorted skills on the links, that 8:30 a.m. blast was a surprise. For the other 18 teams full of predominantly local folks, it was business as usual for the St. Helens Kyle Boggs Sports Boosters Hall of Fame golf tournament. The rules meeting immediately preceding the gunfire indicated as much. The backand-forth banter among the golfers gathered for the best ball scramble made it apparent: These guys know how to use their string. When we walked up to the registration table – the last team to do so – there was a scorecard, four bags full of balls, tees and raffle tickets, and a pair of scissors wrapped in 20 feet of black yarn. Yarn serves many uses – crocheting, playing with cats, assorted arts and crafts – but for us, it meant one thing and one thing only: Improved putting. For anyone who hasn’t played a golf tournament with string, here’s how it works: Each team is given the same amount of string. Throughout the day, you can use as much or as little of it as you See TRIALS, Page A15

Carter Kageler Bowen of St. Helens finished first in the 10-yearold intermediate division and Andrew Orr of St. Helens won the 19- to 27-year-old novice division. Four other St. Helens riders picked up second-place finishes: Colton MacDannald in the 7-yearold novice division, Kyle Dey in the 8 intermediate, Luke Schick in the 9 intermediate ad Kaleb Blackburn in the 14 intermediate. Racing continues every Saturday through October with registration opening at 10 a.m. The next major race scheduled at the track is a two-day event July 20-21. There is a Redline Cup Race on July 20 with registration from 2-3:30 p.m. and the State Championship Race on July 21 with registration from 9-10:30 a.m. To find out about other races and events at CRBMX, visit www.crbmx.com.

2013 SHHS Hall of Fame class is inducted BY KYLE BOGGS The Chronicle

The St. Helens Sports Boosters Club welcomed the 2013 Hall of Fame class with two days of celebration June 22-23. A large crowd showed up to the St. Helens Elks Lodge on June 22 for a social hour, steak dinner and the induction ceremony. That was followed on June 23, when 19 four-person teams drove out to

Vernonia Golf Club for an 18-hole best ball tournament. The inductions opened with a bit of history on display. The 1955 AA state champion medley relay team was inducted. That team was coached by Herb Eisenschmidt, the man for whom the city’s pool is now named. Three members of that team – Dave Fish, Greg Gill and Don Heacock were on hand at the ceremony. Joe Coats was not. The team was introduced by

three newcomers to the men’s team. Coincidentally, one of the other two is from Molalla. Sofich knows his soon-to-be teammate

from competitions around Oregon and will room with him in Vegas. Those same competitions will fill the rest of Sofich’s summer. Just this month he fulfilled a goal set four years ago. By finishing fourth at the Oregon High School Rodeo Association finals in Prineville recently, Sofich earned a spot on the Oregon team for the National High School Finals Rodeo in Rock Springs, Wyo., July 14-20. Sofich set that goal for himself after finishing the eighth grade. He was close each of the past two years, finishing fifth as a sophomore and junior. This year he finally got over the hump and took fourth in the state in calf roping to earn a spot on the team. Sofich finished his high school career as one of a select group to qualify for the state finals all four years. In addition to the national championships, Sofich plans to compete in a handful of local rodeos. Because of the way the dates turned out, he won’t be able to compete at the Columbia County Rodeo because he’ll be in Rock Springs. These types of competitions throughout the years helped Sofich compile an impressive collection of video to send the coaches at UNLV. His recruiting process started by sending an email to the coach. The coach then asked for tape, to which Sofich happily

Former SHHS coach and Dave DePriest athletic director Chuck Whittick introduced DePriest, a three-sport athlete during his time as a Lion. The next few inductees represent a new generation of hall of famers, each having graduated in the 2000s. Current assistant cross country and track and field coach Naomi Calkins Naomi

Calkins was introduced by head coach Gerry Tinkle. Tinkle was also the head coach when Calkins was a four-sport star at St. Helens. Calkins competed in soccer, cross country, basketball and track. She still holds the school record in the 800 meters, set her senior season in 2003. Tinkle then introduced the class of 2007’s Carson Bartlett. Bartlett was another four-sport athlete, playing soccer, basketball, football and track and field. His 2007 state meet was one of the best showings ever by an SHHS athlete. During the meet, Bartlett won the triple jump, won the long jump, was second in the high jump and ran a leg on the thirdplace 4x100 relay team. He still holds Carson Bartlett See 2013, Page A16

obliged. It didn’t hurt that Sofich already knew some of the guys on the team, who offered up kind words to the coaching staff on Sofich’s behalf. But perhaps more important was Sofich’s grade point average. Academics is one of the criteria UNLV rodeo coaches pay the most attention to, and Sofich’s 3.6 GPA impressed the staff. After a visit to the school in February, the decision was made. Now, in just a few short weeks, he’ll trade Highway 30 and our rainy weather for the Vegas Strip and its desert heat. Sofich plans to move into his off-campus apartment on Aug. 15. (Sofich and his Molalla roommate will live about 20 minutes away from downtown.) School begins the last week of August. That gives them a little bit of time to acclimate to a new city and different atmosphere before the action starts up. The rodeo season starts in October and runs through April.

But the training schedule is grueling. The team practices twice a week for six hours at a time, with a month off around the holidays. The good news is UNLV has a couple of generous rodeo boosters who offer top-notch practice arenas and a place to board horses for a hefty discount. Sofich, though, will still have to tend his animal. “It’s on us to feed and take care of the horses,” he said. That part, he’s used to. The rest of it – increased competition, college life, the bright lights of Las Vegas – he’s looking forward to. “I’m excited for all of it,” he said.

wanted. (For the record, our team had about 1.25 inches of string left of our 20 feet by the time we sat down for lunch after the tourney ended.) Whenever your shot is near the hole, you can stretch out your string to essentially extend the hole. That means if you hit an approach shot within three feet, you can cut off three feet of string, and save a stroke. Basically the string lessens the value of spot-on putting. That’s a good thing for most people. (Or me, at least.) The other thing the string does is make you develop strategic tactics. Is there a certain per-hole limit you should use? Does the string come out for any ball within five feet of the pin? Over the first nine holes, our squad used less than a quarter of our string. Our approach shots weren’t finding flags, but our long putts were finding the bottoms of the cups. At the turn, we discussed our game plan inside Vernonia Golf Club’s clubhouse.

We were at 8-under-par through nine holes. Not bad, but it wasn’t going to be enough to win it. I knew from experience that the winning score would be around 25under. For the back nine, we decided, we needed at least three eagles. That meant we might need to become a bit more liberal with our string. After the “turn” (Vernonia is a nine-hole course so we played from the white tees the first nine holes and the blues the second nine; our team started on hole No. 8), we rattled off three straight eagles. Mission accomplished. Adam took care of the team on hole No. 17, taking all three of our shots on the par-five. On No. 18, Dennis gave us a solid drive that Adam followed with a hybrid shot just shy of the fringe. Jonathan’s chip was within a couple feet of the pin. One more snip of the string, another eagle on the card. Hole No. 10 was easily our luckiest of the day. It was also pretty lucky for the groups ahead of us. None of us teed off well. I went first,

Jonathan was up next. Someone cruising down Timber Road played the ultimate joke – timing their horn honk perfectly in his backswing – and his drive followed Dennis’s right into the crowd of about eight people who were waiting to tee off. With 16 eyes squared straight on him and a few shouts of “Waiting for you,” Adam stepped up to the box. So he did what any good golfer would do: Avoiding the gathering ahead and to the

right, he hooked one left into the road. None of us hit a traditionally good approach shot, but Dennis’s hybrid bounced off the cart path, rolled down the hill to within five feet of the hole. Karma wasn’t too angry at us for our attack on the innocent folks waiting to tee off and within three holes, we met our goal of three eagles on the back nine. But our stash of string was a lot smaller. With limited resources, we birdied the next four holes before parring out on the last two, ending up at 18-under for the day. As we turned in our scorecard, Jonathan snuck a peak at the top-secret leaderboard. The only score he saw was a minus-19. Turns out that wasn’t even good enough to win, as two teams tied at 23-under. Maybe that karma was waiting just a little bit to pay us back. Or maybe we just need to golf better. Either way, a Sunday on the golf course is almost always a winner.

He was the cross country teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s MVP his senior year, in addition to earning allleague recognition. His daughter, Julie Heuer, and mother, Kathy Painter, accepted Painterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hall of Fame plaque. Heuer recalled stories about her father finishing races, then running back to cheer on JV runners who were still completing the course. That encouraging attitude led to Painter being named the Lionsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; most inspirational runner as a senior. The golf tournament the next morning ended up needing a tiebreaker to decide the winner. Two teams tied at 23under for the 18-hole best ball tournament. The team of Neil Johnson, Ted Zehr, Justin Thayer and Ken Bailey won the tiebreaker to beat out Jack Carter, Jake Carter, Chuck Whittick and Mike Whittick for the 2013 title. There were also awards for coming closest to the pin on the fourth hole and a longdrive competition on the sixth hole at Vernonia Golf Club. Doris Heimuller won the KP award for the women and Chris Kirby took the honors for the men. Karen Russell had the longest drive for the women and Jeff Timmons drilled one well over 300 yards to win the menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s contest. Learn more about the Boosters at sthelensboosters.com.
