House bills could impact county law enforcement

Columbia County Fair and Rodeo ready for 98th season

BY SHARI PHIEL The Chronicle

More than a year ago, Gov. John Kitzhaber re-established a public safety commission to review anticipated public safety budget shortfalls in the 2013Jeff Dickerson 15 state budget and to avoid building a costly new state prison. Oregon sheriffs have been at the table with district attorneys, police chiefs, the governor’s office and legislators to tackle the difficult task of creating an affordable public safety budget. Now, there is not one but two bills currently moving through the Oregon Legislature that could have an impact of local county law enforcement. Legislators passed House Bill 3453, which allows for the declaration of a fiscal emergency in counties struggling to fund law enforcement and other basic services. Several Oregon counties, including Columbia County, had traditionally been funded in part by timber receipts under the mandates of the 1937 O&C Act. But logging restrictions implemented in the 1990s limited access to federal lands and drove down timber receipts. While subsequent legislation provided federal payments to counties to make up for the loss of these timber revenues, that funding source has now run dry. HB 3453 would allow the governor to proclaim a public safety fiscal emergency for counties where conditions compromise the ability to provide a minimally adequate level of public safety services. “Although this is largely a federal issue, the inactivity at that level has prompted state officials to try and seek a solution that is workable for all involved,” said Rep. Wally Hicks (R-Grants Pass). “Through the legislative process, we have brought together various stake See BILL, Page A4

The Columbia County Fair and Rodeo – undoubtedly one of the largest events of the year in the county – is ready for another season of 4-H exhibits and competitions, bronc riding, carnival rides and much more. This year marks the 98th year for the fair and rodeo, which typically brings in around 20,000 visitors each year. In celebration of the heritage of both the county See FAIR, Page A2

Bonamici backs seniors on capital hill BY SHARI PHIEL The Chronicle

ST. HELENS ‑ U.S. Rep. Suzanne Bonamici (D-Ore.) had a lunch time meeting with senior citizens at the St. Helens Senior Center on July 15 to talk about the impact federal cuts could have on the Meals on Wheels program, a service many elderly residents are dependent upon. “When I joined the U.S. Congress, there was something called sequestration that was put into law and that was designed to be so bad it would never happen. These are across the board cuts to programs. Sadly, what has happened is that Congress hasn’t been able to work out a compromise… these cuts have been put into place and they are affecting programs

like Meals on Wheels, they are affecting programs that impact seniors,” said Bonamici. According to Community Action Team, which administers the homedelivery meals program in Columbia, Clatsop and Tillamook counties, automatic cuts due to sequestration will result in approximately 7,000 fewer meals being served in the tri-county area. Bonamici is now working to pass legislation to repeal the cuts. “I think this is a bad way to make policy. I think we need to make targeted cuts where it makes sense,” said Bonamici. “…Some of the big tax breaks for example, some of the subsidies, we shouldn’t be subsidizing successful companies.” Meals on Wheels provides meals See BONAMICI, Page A4

Cornelius Pass to close for four days BY SHARI PHIEL The Chronicle

SHARI PHIEL / The Chronicle

A proposed development project between 10th and 12th streets in St. Helens has some neighbors seeing red. The project would call for the removal of 500,000 cubic yards of rock by using blasting, heavy equipment and trucks.

Neighbors petition to halt proposed development BY SHARI PHIEL The Chronicle

ST. HELENS — A proposed development in the very early stages of planning already has some neighbors raising objections. The 5.3acre site is located between 10th and 12th streets to the east and west and Wyeth and Willamette streets to the north and south. A memo sent to City of St. Helens Planner Jacob Graichen from Project Delivery Group and landowner Karl Birky outlines the proposed development. “Most of the site is rock outcrop approximately 40 feet above the adjacent streets and properties. To develop the site, the developer will remove the rock below finish grade and fill the site with appropriate material for home construction, lawns and trees” reads the memo. It’s how that rock will be removed – and how long the project will take to remove all of it – that has neighbors worried. It’s estimated that nearly 500,000 cubic yards of rock would have to be

removed, along with some 200,000 cubic yards of fill to be brought in for grading. To achieve this, the developer would have to blast the rock and haul it out in large trucks. “There are a lot of different aspects. Right now, the only thing the city has started to review is a sensitive lands permit with respect to impact to an adjacent wetlands,” said Graichen. “That is a planning office decision.” Graichen said the project would ultimately require the input and approval of various city, county and state agencies. “There are 80-foot public rights of way in there and the rock within that right of way is public rock. It’s possible the [city council] will need to have some say on the use of those rights of way,” added Graichen. Area residents Steve Palmer, Bill Holder and Don Parrett aren’t waiting for the project to begin moving the bureaucratic channels. The trio submitted a petition See PETITION, Page A4

Commuters and others headed to the Beaverton and Hillsboro areas will have a few days of extra driving headaches to deal with. A four-day planned closure of Cornelius Pass Road at U.S. 30 begins July 19. The road will be closed beginning at 10 p.m. on Friday, July 19 and will reopen to all traffic by 4:30 a.m. on Wednesday, July 24. U.S. Highway 30 will remain open during the construction period and drivers will be detoured around the closure to alternate routes such as Newberry and Rocky Point roads to and from Skyline Boulevard. Riders headed to Portland Community College’s Rock Creek Campus and the Willow Creek transit station should be prepared for the detours and allow extra time for getting to their destination. Go to ColumbiaCountyRider.com for more on upcoming schedule changes. According to the Oregon Department of Transportation, the closure is necessary to replace a culvert beneath the road and to fill in a dip in the roadway. Drivers can take detours around the closure by using Newberry or Rocky Point roads to and from Skyline Boulevard. Also, Multnomah County will take advantage of ODOT’s closing to perform maintenance on Cornelius Pass Road. The four-day closure is part of a larger construction project that began in May 2013 and is expected to be completed this fall. The intersection of Highway 30 and Cornelius Pass Road has been identified as one of the top locations in need of safety improvements in Oregon. The relatively

high number of crashes at the intersection tend to be rear-end collisions, most of which involve vehicles traveling east on U.S. 30 or south on Cornelius Pass Road. The Oregon Legislature allocated $9.5 million to Multnomah County for the improvements. The Cornelius Pass Road Safety Evaluation JTA Final Report was provided by ODOT to the Legislature early in 2011. This report identifies seven specific project areas that are considered to have the greatest potential to improve safety. Six of the identified project areas are anticipated to fall within the current funding allocation

and are being analyzed to determine which to include in the package that will be designed in 2013-14 and constructed in 2014-15. Input may be provided by e-mail to corneliuspass@ multco.us. The U.S. 30–Cornelius Pass Road intersection project will improve the right turn from U.S. 30 east to Cornelius Pass Road south by adding a standard rightturn lane. The approach of Cornelius Pass Road north will be widened at U.S. 30 to include separate left- and right-turn pockets. A bike should and pedestrian island will be added to the intersec See PASS, Page A2

FAIR: tickets are $6 for youth and seniors, adults $9 and the fair, this year’s theme is “Wagon Trains to Western Dreams.” “It’s coming along. It’s definitely going to happen,” said fair board member Mike Warren. Warren said there is one new attraction that could be a real crowd pleaser, the addition of Pete Ford Wrestling to the lineup. “Portland Wrestling will be here on Sunday. They are going to be in the rodeo arena so there will be plenty of room for fans,” said Warren. The Pete Ford Wrestling exhibition is at 2 p.m. Also in this year’s lineup of events is a classic car show and performances by a barbershop quartet both sponsored by KOHI radio. “I’m really hoping we do as well as last year,” said Warren. “I think we had an awesome year last year. And it looks like we’re going to have good weather again, too.” The festivities officially get started with “Senior Day” on Wednesday, July 17. Gates open at 10 a.m. and the carnival begins at noon. Senior services will be showcased from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. Also, the My Fair Lady Pageant, always a hit, begins at 1 p.m. This event is sponsored by Columbia River PUD and recognizes an outstanding volunteer from the Retired Senior Volunteer Program The 2013 My Fair Lady court is comprised of Princess Marian Smith, from St. Helens; Princess Lesle Ruby, of Scappoose; Princess Joanne Bernard, of Rainier; Princess Delores Mellinger, of Clatskanie; and Princess Ann Mitchell, of Vernonia. On Wednesday, there will also be stock car races, the Cutest Show on Earth, Professor Bamboozles and plenty of entertainment for the whole family. Thursday, July 18 is Kids Day. Gates open at 10 a.m. and activities include a Sponge Bob trivia game show, a Taekwondo exhibition, the Launching Lunacy

show, and Dance Central. Rodeo Day is held on both Friday and Saturday with rodeo events beginning Friday. National Pro Rodeo Association events begin at 7 p.m. There will also be plenty of live music and entertainment throughout the day each day. None of the events or shows would be possible if it wasn’t for the thousands of hours volunteers give throughout the year. In fact, Warren says it’s the volunteers that make the fair possible. We have a lot of people still wanting to volunteer – our book is filling up fast,” Warren said. “Last year I had to fill out the Oregon Fairs Association report. We send that to the state and they determine what kind of money we get from the lottery. We sat down and figured out all of our volunteer hours were over 11,000 hours.” Those volunteer hours equate to more than $90,000 worth of labor. Warren said the volunteers help out all year long, not just during the fair itself. “I have to turn in a report every month. I turn in around 400-500 hours a month in volunteer hours – at minimum – during the rest of the year.” Tickets prices at the gate are: $6 for youths, $9 for adults and $6 for seniors. Advance purchase ticket prices are $5 for youths, $8 for adults and $5 for seniors. Parking passes are $4 per day or $16 for a weekly pass. Tickets can be purchased in advance at Wauna Federal Credit Union (Scappoose, St. Helens, Clatskanie and Vernonia branches), US Bank (St. Helens, Clatskanie and Vernonia branches), St. Helens Community Federal Credit Union (Scappoose, St. Helens and Rainier branches) Skinny’s Texaco and Chubb’s Shell in St. Helens, and Jackpot Food Market and Engstrom Food Market in Scappoose. For more information, visit the fair and rodeo website at ColumbiaCountyFairgrounds.com.

PASS: some road improvements were recommended by feds From PAGE A1 tion and signals and signing also will be upgraded. Several improvements were already completed in 2010 using funds from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. The federal stimulus funds were used to add: rumble strips along the outside edge of traffic lanes and the centerline to warn drivers when their vehicles are near the road edge or crossing into oncoming traffic; a flashing yellow signal (westbound) approaching the intersection with NW

Sheltered Nook Road to alert drivers of stopped traffic around a blind corner; vehicle speed readout signs to remind drivers of their vehicle speed. The speed limit in this section of the road is 45 miles per hour. Some of these improvements were recommended in a road safety audit led by the Federal Highway Administration in 2008.

PETITION: cites city code on residental areas From PAGE A1

that is something that will have to be looked at. “Mining is a use listed in our development code and it’s listed in the heavy industrial zoning district only. When you have a use that is listed in one zoning district but not the others, that means that if it is not listed in the others it is prohibited. That’s going to be one of the big questions here… or does it fall into some other category,” Graichen said. So how does the city balance the rights of property owners to develop their land

against the proposed application, which was addressed to St. Helens Mayor Randy Peterson, the planning commission and city council, to bring a halt to the “high volume excavation” and “commercial mining” in the project. The petition sites city code that prohibits blasting and mining inside residential neighborhoods. When it comes to the question of allowing a mining operation at the site, the city planner said

with the rights of homeowners in the area to prevent noise and other disturbances? “That’s the big question here,” said Graichen. Along with a sensitive lands permit and approval for a mining operation, the developer will also have to obtain a grading permit, have and approved development plans, and work with the State Department of Lands to resolve issues about other wetlands on the property, among other steps. “We still have questions to answer,” said Graichen.

BONAMICI: Meals on Wheels lost nearly $700k From PAGE A1 to homebound seniors over age 60, along with their spouses or dependent, disabled adult children. The program is designed to promote better health among the senior and homebound population, with a goal of ending hunger. The program is geared to providing both nutrition and support to keep individuals in their own homes, reducing the likelihood of institutionalization.

“The across-the-board spending cuts that took effect earlier this year are having a real impact on Oregon’s seniors,” said Bonamici. “For some, the Meals on Wheels program delivers the only hot meal they’ll receive on any given day. Oregon lost nearly $700,000 in funding for this program, and thousands of meals in Columbia County will not be served as a result.” Although Community Action Team has seen budget

cuts over the years, this latest round of budget reductions could prove to be especially difficult to work with. “Every time the budget gets cut we try do more with less, but the fact remains that thousands of meals will not get served and that means seniors will go hungry,” said CAT Executive Director Jim Tierney. “We’re thankful that Congresswoman Bonamici stopped by today to meet us and the seniors who are hurt by these cuts.”

Using equipment readily available, the TOC was completed in six week. Five months after completion we were sent to an aircraft crash site where we set up 50 yards from the debris field, set up a security perimeter, designated an evidence collection center, set up work areas for the investigators, and provided communications and administrative support; all in less than two hours’ time. On the front page of the July 10 issue of The Chronicle was an article about the reality of Columbia County getting a $570,000 emergency operations center, a permanent structure? What leadership can be exercised from St. Helens when there is an oil spill in Port Westward or a wildfire in the mountains between Columbia City and Vernonia? Weather in St. Helens can be entirely different from even Columbia City, much less across the county. Years ago the government enticed counties in Oregon to build new jails

with promises of grants and federal funding, but once completed the funding slowly faded from away. Currently there is a funding shortage for our county jail, yet again the county is jumping on the bandwagon with promises of grants and funding from FEMA. Who is going to pay for the utilities after it is built? Who is going to pay for the staff working there? Who is going to pay for the everincreasing PERS costs? Timber revenues for the county are at an all-time low, local mills are closing, which leaves the local property owners, duh, not all of us are dummies. Joe Bill Turner, Columbia City

application to use the Port Westward property, once again due to public opposition. The spin on this withdrawal was that KM could not find a “footprint” for their company. Many people now believe that the shipment of coal will not happen. That is totally incorrect. The Columbia County Commissioners can overturn the decision by the Columbia County Planning Commission even though the planning commission is the entity that studied all the information submitted regarding the zone change. Hopefully, when the county commissioners set a date in August to make this decision, they will call for public input. The county commissioners have been asked to hold evening meetings instead of at 10 a.m., as has been their standard in the past. Second - in October 2012 the Port of St. Helens rewrote a lease agreement with Cascade/Kelly. This is the company shipping all the crude oil right through the middle of our towns. This new lease agreement gave Cascade/Kelly access to the docks at Port Westward to facilitate the shipment of crude oil through Columbia County. There are anywhere from nine to 17 crude oil trains per month – each 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 miles long. The number of these trains is expected to double or even more in the next year. How many Columbia County jobs has this created? Just two weeks ago an explosion of crude oil, shipping by rail, exploded in Quebec, destroyed a town, killed 13 and obliterated 50 more. Now this is in our backyard. How many

Coal could happen Coal will ship through Columbia County unless you stop it. The fight is not over! The Port of St. Helens has made some grievous errors in the past two years. First - contracts were signed with Amber Energy and Kinder Morgan, both owned by Australian companies, without reasonable time for public input. The Port commissioners took approximately 20 minutes to deliberate in public forum then retired to their backroom to sign contracts, which had previously been written by the coal companies. The port commission then applied to the county planning commission for a zone change at the Port Westward facility near Clatskanie. The planning commission refused their application due in large part because of the public opposition to this zone change. At this point Kinder Morgan withdrew their

Guest Editorial

Facing challenges are easier with a positive outlook 9 BY JEANNINE DUEHREN St. Helens Economic Development Corporation

When I took on the position of fireworks chair for the St. Helens Economic Development Corporation, I was told by more than a few people that I would experience pettiness, infighting and an uncooperative group of St. Helens City employere ees that would thwart my efforts. I was also told that y St. Helens is a very difficult s. town to do business in. Last year I was the person who raised the majority ntal of funds for fireworks that ultimately ran during the st Maritime Festival. We were 8

unable to run the fireworks last year on the 4th of July due to permit issues I was unaware of. As a successful business owner in this community, (12 years so far), and active volunteer for the past two years, I can tell you my experience has quite the opposite of what the naysayers warned. For the most part, my fundraising efforts were a very positive experience, and getting resources from businesses for that event was pretty straightforward. Prior to my investing in St. Helens, most of my career, business and volunteer experience had been in Portland, initially doing morning on air radio at KWJJ FM,

then moving on to developing interactive technology that formed the base of my successful venture for a national radio and Portland television dating show. From there I went on to purchase and successfully operate two Portland radio stations. Those years of doing cutting edge business have shown me there are great people who want to make a positive change in their community and there difficult, negative and petty people everywhere. And anyone who can be successful in a city like Portland deserves a gold star. Having gotten venture capital, bought, operated and sold two radio stations in Portland, I can tell you first

employees and Columbia County staff, and when I do have a problem, they have always worked with me to resolve it fairly. In my two years of doing volunteer work in St. Helens, I have been equally impressed. While I have certainly run into some duds along with way, people like Chris Finks, Mayor Randy Peterson, Joe Burks, Dean Cox and Alta Lynch, Steve Topaz, Stephanie Hall, Sen. Betsy Johnson, every city employee I have encountered, (just to name a few), have gone way beyond their duties to help make our community better. And most businesses I approached to help with our fireworks

celebration or events I have done with the Arts Commission have for the most part been great. I have been really touched by the genuine unselfishness of so many people in Columbia County that day in, day out take the time to make this a better place for all of us. It’s easy to point fingers at others and complain about our town. It’s a much bigger challenge and ultimately a better one to simply move towards the direction of positive, effective change, regardless of the naysayers. And by taking that road, a much happier and productive journey awaits.

CHITO (M) Chito came to us from one of our transports from California. He is very sweet, gets along great with other dogs and is going to make a great addition to any family that is looking to add a new little friend. Chito is a pretty reserved guy, just sitting back taking in all the information before he decides what he is going to do. He can be a little shy at times, but is more than willing to be held and loved on at anytime.

hand, it is very, very challenging. That experience has been very much the opposite in St. Helens. While I have had difficulties during my business career here, I have always been surprised at how easy it is to do business in St. Helens compared to other cities. As a real estate investor, I get invited to a lot of dinners and functions in Portland by large real estate brokers and feel grateful when I listen to the laments of landlords at these functions. I tell them they would be a lot happier if they did business in Columbia County. And it’s true. I have had great experiences with both the City of St. Helens

Comment period opened for bio-refinery project Columbia Pacific Biorefinery in Clatskanie has submitted an application for a U.S. Department of the Army permit for a proposed project at Port Westward. The proposed project involves the modification of an existing dock and the addition of new associated structures at the Port. Work being proposed to complete the project includes installing four breasting dolphins (a type of marine structure for berthing and mooring vessels) and associated cat walks, three mooring dolphins and associated catwalks, and a pile supported pipe rack with associated catwalk; temporarily removing the trash boom and upstream approach of the dock for barge access; and, replacing other creosote-treated structurally inadequate piles with steel piles. Columbia Pacific, which was recently sold to Global Partners, has provided a proposed compensatory mitigation plan for the removal of 600 linear feet of rail trestle along shallow water habitat. If a permit is issued, the Corps said it would determine what is appropriate and practicable compensatory mitigation, which is required to be comparable to the anticipate impacts of the project. According to the Corps, Columbia Pacific’s project is intended to repair and

upgrade the existing dock to accommodate Panamaxclass vessels, as well as other commercial vessels, for the shipping of liquid commodities. Preliminary determinations indicate proposed project may affect an endangered or threatened species or its critical habitat and that consultation under Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (87 Stat. 844) will be initiated. A permit for the proposed activity will not be issued until the consultation process is completed. An initial evaluation of the proposed project area indicates that the permit area is likely to yield resources eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places. An investigation for the presence of potentially eligible historic properties is justified and would be required prior to the Corps’ final permit decision. Notice has already been provided to the State Historic Preservation Office, interested Native American Indian tribes, and other interested parties. Anyone with information pertaining to cultural resources within the permit area is asked to provide this information to the Corps project manager to assist in a complete evaluation of potential effects. Also, anyone may request, in writing and within the

specified comment period, that a public hearing be held to consider the application. Requests for public hearings shall state with particularity the reasons for holding the public hearing. Comments must be received no later than Aug. 13 and should be mailed to U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Attn: Steve Gagnon, P.O. Box 2946, Portland, OR 972082946 or may be sent by email to nwp-2007-998@usace. army.mil.

toes With it finally warm enough to actually grow tomatoes, it is time for the annual review of blossom end rot. This is a poorly named problem in one respect – it is not a disease but rather a nutritional disorder. The symptom is a dark, leathery sunken spot on the bottom of your rapidly ripening tomato. What misery! Blossom end rot results from a shortage of calcium in growing fruits. Practically speaking, however, the cause

Columbia River Fish Counts Salmon, steelhead and shad Steelhead catch rates were poor over the weekend of July 6-7. Boat anglers had the best success in the gorge, where anglers averaged 0.25 steelhead per boat. In the area from Portland to Westport, boat anglers averaged 0.08 steelhead per boat, while anglers in Troutdale had no observed

catches. Bank anglers had no observed catches from Westport all the way upstream to the gorge. On July 6, 180 salmonid boats, seven shad boats, 100 Oregon salmonid bank anglers and 22 Oregon shad bank anglers were counted. Portland to Westport Bank: Weekend checking showed no catch for 35 anglers. Portland to Westport Boats: Weekend checking showed two

Harvesting garlic July is garlic month. Generally, garlic is ready to harvest in the second week of July. How can you tell if the garlic is ripe? Look at a wellformed bulb and pull it apart. Count the number of “skins” to the outermost set of cloves. If the plant has lost all but three of the outer skins, harvest the bulbs. If there are more skins, you have a little time. Be sure to eat the garlic you have examined. The skins help to keep the garlic dormant during winter storage and also make the bulb look more attractive.

Flea facts Flea larvae are tiny and worm-like. They feed principally on the feces of their parents, which is largely composed of partially digested blood. Yummy! Under ideal conditions, 10 female fleas can produce over a quarter of a million flea eggs/larvae/adults. Once a flea attaches for blood, they stay with the animal. A fertile female lays 10-20 eggs per day. The eggs drop from the pet, particularly

is usually inadequate irrigation. Soil moisture is essential for roots to abscorb calcium. To avoid blossom end rot: Keep your tomato bed well limed so calcium will be present. Keep the plants well watered so calcium will be available. Use an organic mulch to help keep soil evenly moist. Great fluctuations in soil moisture seem to aggravate the problem. Avoid heavy nitrogen fertilization. Trap moles, whose tunnels may make even watering impossible.

Sunset Sunrise 8:52 PM 5:44 AM

If you continue to water garlic after the skin count has dropped below three, you can lose all the skins. You can also increase storage disease. Garlic doesn’t have to be brown before harvest. Often, the garlic will have green tops at the best “skin” stage for harvest. That is not a problem. When you harvest the bulbs, tie the tops into bundles and hang the bulbs from rafters in your garage or barn or place them on a screen so that they have good air circulation while they are curing. They shouldn’t be exposed to the direct sun. You can eat the garlic at any time and it should be cured for winter storage after drying for thirty days.

where the pet sleeps. The time from hatching to adult can be as short as two weeks up to several months or more. Fleas can go into suspended animation and can live for a year or considerably more without any of that delicious blood. In fact, there was a German experiment in the early part of the century that seemed to show that fleas could be kept alive for over 15 years without food. Fleas can transmit tapeworms, bubonic plague, and other maladies. Many pets (and humans) are intensely allergic to flea saliva. Treatments that interfere with the flea development (methoprene as a spray or collar), Program™/lufenuron (which is a pill that affects egg viability) or those that move from a drop on the back (imidacloprid and others) through the animal have revolutionized flea control. Talk to your vet about options. Plant a few extra rows of vegetables for your non-gardening friends and neighbors and for the food bank. The Extension Service offers its programs and materials equally to all people.

Not your average romantic weekend Courtesy photo

Stephenie and Roger Fink rest at the halfway point of the Seattle to Portland Bicycle Classic.

Who needs dinner and a movie when you’ve got bikes and a 200-mile route? At first glance, the Seattle to Portland Bicycle Classic may not seem like a romantic weekend for two. But for one Scappoose couple, the yearly event doubles as date night. Because Roger and Stephenie Fink have two young boys who are always on the go, the two-day bike ride gives them the opportunity to be alone for a weekend. Sort of. They’re alone with about 10,000 other cyclists. Last weekend was the third Seattle to Portland for the Finks. Even though they treat the ride as more of a getaway than competition, they’ve still seen their times improve since the first ride. “Mentally, to pedal your bike from Seattle to Portland is a mental wall. Once you’re able to do that, automatically you’re gonna be faster,” said Roger, a health teacher at Liberty High School, where Stephenie teaches PE. Roger said sometime in the future he would like to make the ride in a single now. But for now they’re happy soaking up the several rest stops along the way. “Every rest stop we stop and get off our bikes, talk, rest, take breaks,” Stephenie said. “We just enjoy the ride. It’s the one time when you enjoy the ride instead of trying to beat the clock.” In one of their other hobbies – triathlons – they’re constantly trying to beat the clock. But those challenges don’t necessarily compare to the camaraderie they have noticed taking part in the STP. “We were impressed and amazed by the sheer number of people leaving UW [the University of Washington] that Saturday morning,” Roger said. “Just riding with a whole squad of people

from station to station, that was a neat experience.” The overnight stay in Centralia, specifically, is one of the stops they’ve really come to enjoy. “It’s just a big party. It was fun: People eating, joking, talking bikes. It’s a very positive, fun community,” Roger said. “And it didn’t hurt to have a McMenamins in town.” After 102 miles on a bicycle, a burger and cold Ruby Ale would normally hit the spot. But knowing there’s another 100 miles knocking on tomorrow’s door, one has to be careful not to get carried away. “The second day is harder, getting back on that bike seat,” Stephenie said. But by the time they cross the Lewis and Clark Bridge and get into familiar territory, they realize most of the hard work is out of the way. And while they decided to do the Seattle to Scappoose ride their second trip, they’ve gutted out the final 20 miles each of the other two trips. “Once you hit St. Helens, you’re

thinking, ‘Man, I’ve already done 175 (miles),’ so it’s the light at the end of the tunnel,” Roger said. When they get to St. Helens, it’s time to alert their babysitters – their boys’ grandparents – that they’ll be swinging by soon. “The kids will be out cheering us as we pass in Scappoose. They’re excited to see you. It gives you that extra push,” Stephenie said. That helped carry them on to the finish line at Portland’s Holladay Park. In addition to giving the thrill of knowing it’s time to get off the bike, the finish line adds another piece of joy. “The first year coming across the finish line, I didn’t think I’d be emotional,” Stephenie said. “I was pretty emotional. It was a pretty hard thing to do. Even though it’s not a race, it felt like you were doing something together as a community.”

Bats blasting for 9- and 10-year-olds PORTLAND — The 2013 9- and 10-year-old Little League All Stars District I tournament started off with a slugfest between St. Helens and Scappoose on July 10. The game looked to be a Scappoose blowout early on, but St. Helens fought back from an 8-run deficit to close within two before Scappoose pulled out a 17-8 victory. Luke McNabb game the host Scappoose squad a 1-0 lead with an RBI fielder’s choice in the bottom of the first inning. St. Helens answered in the top of the second when Cameron Sexton scored on an overthrow. Scappoose broke the game open over the course of the next two innings. The team scored four runs in the bottom of the second and five more in the bottom of the third. Jack Duschka had a tworun single in the second. Connor MacLachlan and Colton Frates drove in a run apiece in the second as well. Tyler Tolleshaug drove in a run in the top of the third to get one of those four runs back for St. Helens, making it a 5-2 game. In the bottom half of that inning, Scappoose capitalized

on a couple of errors to score twice. Then Frates drilled a two-run triple to give Scappoose an imposing 9-2 lead. Cooper Ragan’s RBI single

made it 10-2 and ended the third-inning onslaught. St. Helens had a rally of its own to start the fourth inning. Kaleb Edwards

drove in Ashton Smith with a ground ball. Cody McKay added an RBI of his own. Then when Scappoose tried picking the speedster off at second base, he wheeled all the way home to make it a 10-5 game. St. Helens held Scappoose scoreless in the bottom of the fourth, then scored three more runs in the top of the fifth inning, sparked by a two-run double from Ben Heitz. The other run scored with the help of an error, making it a 10-8 ball game. The two-run lead, apparently, was too close for comfort for Scappoose. In the bottom of the fifth inning, the designated home team erupted for seven runs. McNabb drove in a run, Kade Hidlreth brought in two, Logan Johnson ripped a two-run double, Duschka picked up his third RBI of the game and MacLachlan knocked in the game’s final run. Scappoose held on for a 17-8 victory. The win put Scappoose up against Wilshire-Riverside. St. Helens, meanwhile, was matched up against Lakeside/Parkrose in the second round.

It’s party time Stumptown Disc Golf is inviting anyone interested in helping to create St. Helens’ new disc golf course to join them at McCormick Park in St. Helens on Sunday, July 21, to invest a little sweat equity into the brand new course. Whether you are a current Stumptown member or not, they would love to buy you lunch. All they ask is that you give them a hand for a few hours and help us clear out a few fairways. Up to this point, Jared Fischer, Sean Phillips and Logan Miller have been working with very little assistance outside their core group, and Stumptown would love to see that change. Come help get this new course in the ground so everyone can start playing it. Work is planned to start at 9 a.m., and continuing

until about 1:30 p.m. or so, at which point they will fire up the BBQ and grill up some burgers and dogs for everyone. Come out and enjoy a little course work followed by a BBQ and cold drinks. They will also be raffling off some cool stuff like shirts, hats, discs, minis and yes... a Disc Catcher Sport basket. All work party participants will receive one raffle ticket for every hour of work. McCormick Park is at 475 S 18th St., in St. Helens.

Ralph Painter Memorial Run coming up RAINIER — The Third annual Ralph Painter Memorial Run will be on July 27. There are multiple options for the run: A 10K, 5K and kids 800-meter run. The 5K will begin at 8:30 a.m., the 10K starts at 9 a.m. and the kids take off at 10 a.m. All races begin on the track at Rainier High School. Race packets can be picked up at RHS from 7:308:15 a.m. the day of the race. Entry fees are $35 for the 5K, $40 for the 10K, and $10 for the kids race (for children up to age 12). Students ages 13-18 can race for $15, or pay $25 and receive a race T-shirt. Race shirts are included with the adult fees. According to the event’s website, the 5K course is mostly paved with rolling hills. The 10K course is a loop run that is half road and half trail. This year’s event will feature a competition between police officers and firefighters. There will be four-man teams. Whichever

team has the lowest combined score wins a trophy and plaque that will remain at that department for the year. In addition, Hillsboro Police Sergeant Eric Bunday has issued a challenge to increase participation. Bunday said if 50 officers sign up to run, he will run the 5K course in full police gear. If 100 officers participate, he will run it in full riot gear. Ralph Painter ran cross country and track at St. Helens High School, where he graduated in 1974. He was recently inducted into the St. Helens Sports Boosters Hall of Fame. Painter served as the police chief of Rainier until he was killed in the line of duty. All proceeds from the Ralph Painter Memorial Run go into a scholarship fund in Painter’s name. The scholarships are awarded to deserving high school seniors in Columbia County.
