LINCOLN CITY, OREGON

Local economy perking up

For daily Lincoln City News, visit:

Jeremy C. Ruark The News Guard

You don’t have to look far to see Lincoln City’s economic recovery after several years of recession. New business development is moving ahead in several parts of the city including along Highway 101 at the old Lincoln City A&W Restaurant which has been torn down over the past few weeks to make room for a new Dutch Brothers Coffee outlet. City planners also said a new motel planned for the Nelscott area, a national fast

food restaurant suggested for a vacant lot near Lincoln City Hall and a new mini car lot for Highway 101 in the north part of the city are all indicators of economic growth in the months ahead. Those who keep a close eye on Lincoln City’s economy are suggesting that a slow and positive recovery is well under way. “It is a slow recovery,” said David Hawker, Lincoln City city manager. “But I feel cautiously optimistic that the economy is improving. For the community that means a whole lot. It’s jobs. It’s busi-

ness. It’s everything.” Hawker outlined his optimism at the Jan. 14 Lincoln City Council meeting by using a series of graphics to illustrate the recovery. The graphics included the unemployment rates, gross room receipts, building activity and retail trade. All show a gradual increase in activity. “I do believe we had a good year last year,” said Mayor Dick Anderson. Anderson looks beyond the graphics to judge the economy.

WEATHER GUIDE

Churches in Lincoln City like those across the nation continue to struggle to maintain memberships. “We have seen churches go out of business across the nation because of a lack of members,” said Jim Kyes, pastor at St. Peter The Fisherman Lutheran Church. “Washington and Oregon are the most unchurched regions in the entire country. Most people don’t go to church in this area. They don’t even think about going to church because they weren’t raised to go to church.” The congregation at the Lutheran church numbers about 250 but continues to dwindle. According to local church administrators, members leave for a variety of reasons. The elderly pass away, others become disenchanted, while others feel the church is not responding to their needs.

Gail Elliott Downs looks over the contents of the little black suitcase she has saved over the years. The photographs show her second cousin and his wife. Jeremy C. Ruark The News Guard

F

or Lincoln Beach resident Gail Elliott Downs it’s a simple task: Preserve a small black suitcase that holds a special treasure. Over the years Downs has kept the treasure and shared it with others. Inside the small, battered suitcase are dozens of letters, correspondence between her great aunt, Hazel Elliott Rich and Rich’s son George Elliott Rich. Rich began writing the letters to his mother in 1929 when he was 8-years old after she contracted Tuberculosis. The two were separated over the years and George entered the Army Air Corps. From age 8 to 21 George saw his mother for only one week prior to joining the Army Air Corps as a radio operator/waist gunner on a B-24 Liberator Bomber. Hazel saved all the correspondence

that George sent her. Rich married in 1943 and his wife Wanda also began writing letters to Hazel. “It is like a treasure chest,” said Downs. “Hazel saved it through all those years.” George was killed in action while serving his 50th mission. “That 50th mission was scheduled to be his last mission that would have completed his service in the military,” said Downs. Following Hazel’s death in 1979 the small suitcase was packed away for years in a steamer truck. Downs traveled to Detroit to settle Hazel’s estate with her mother. My mother came to me and told me she was going to pitch the suitcase,” said Downs. “I opened it up and saw all the correspondence inside and decided that the suitcase and its contents needed to be saved.”

In May 1991, Downs was a school librarian in Brentwood, Mo. and needed an example of ways to track family history for a fifth grade class. She decided to share the small suitcase and the letters inside with the students to help them learn about family history and world war. Her efforts have been recognized in the Congressional Record and in media coverage over the years. Downs will tell the story about the small black suitcase Jan. 29 as she speaks before the Oregon Coast Learning Institute located at Salishan Spa & Golf Resort 7760 Hwy. 101 in Gleneden Beach. Other speakers include Pearl Harbor survivor Ed Johann, History student John Ohm, and World War II teenagers Lonnie Headrick and Joann Kangiser. The program begins at 9 a.m. For more details, call Mick McLean at 541-994-9846.

School district promotes safety partnerships Jim Fossum The News Guard

Strong community partnerships forged between area schools and local law enforcement agencies have helped make the Lincoln County School District a national leader in promoting and providing a safer educational environment for students. As evidenced by her participation in two recent safety education symposiums stretching from sea to sea, LCSD Safety Coordinator Susan Graves is spreading the word that emergency preparedness can best be achieved by working with local partners such as police and fire. “One thing we talk about

tion seminar at the Hawaii State Civil Defense Center in Honolulu. “It takes being diligent to reach out and really work and spend the time to build those relationships and plan together, build together and train together,” said Graves, one of seven speakers at the symposium, which was attended by approximately 850 school, municipal and emergency officials from throughout Connecticut. In North County, close ties between the Lincoln City Police Department and North Lincoln Fire & Rescue District No. 1 have provided improved student security, she said.

We’re blessed to have that in Lincoln County. A lot of other communities don’t.” That’s the message Graves conveyed when she was a presenter at the Connecticut School Security Symposium on Jan. 7 in Newtown, site of the Dec. 14 shooting that killed 26 people, including 20 young children.

Public input sought on transportation Jeremy C. Ruark The News Guard

Lincoln City planners will taker questions from interested citizens about the formation of the Lincoln city Transportation System Plan (TSP) during a public event Jan. 26. City engineer Stephanie Reid and planning staff Jamie Young, Timothy Novak, Kate Daschel, Debra Martzahn, and Richard Townsend will be on the third floor of Lincoln City Hall located at 801 SW Highway 101 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 26 to talk with citizens and visitors about the city’s transportation system planning process. “We hope to catch folks on their way to the culinary center for the Jambalaya Cook-Off and are offering a free jambalaya token to anyone who submits a comment about our existing transportation system,” said Daschel. “We’ll have three laptop computers available to access the project’s website at www.lincolncitytsp.org.” The TSP is designed to be a comprehensive and complete look at Lincoln City’s transportation system today and what it could offer in the next 20 years. City and state planners said the Lincoln City Transportation System Plan is critical to the future and livability of the city. “There are many reasons this plan is important,” said John Bosket, DKS Extensions, a Portland-based transportation planning and consulting firm working with Lincoln City and the Oregon Department of Transportation to develop the TSP. He said cities in Oregon must be competitive to qualify for state and federal funding. “The TSP also helps you take a

comprehensive look at your transportation systems now and into the future,” said Bosket. “We will identify the types of projects that people in the community want to see happen, a transportation system they want to live with and determine how much money they actually have to build that system. So they will have that reality check.” According to Debra Martzahn, Lincoln City senior planner, there is one main transportation issue that affects all the others. “We have a lot of traffic coming into Lincoln City each summer and we must decide how we are going to handle that traffic so that we can all get around comfortably and easily within reason and still not let that dominate or destroy our community character,” said Martzahn. Terry Cole, with ODOT, said funding the Lincoln City TSP will be the huge challenge. “That is part of the reason why we are sitting down and being really realistic about what the future can hold for us,” said Cole. “When we are done we will be able to say what is fiscally reasonable over a 20 year planning horizon and what is not and what isn’t we will adjust our system performance accordingly.” ODOT’s long-range planning budget includes the approximately $200,000 cost to pay for the work done for Lincoln City by DKS Extensions. But the final cost for Lincoln City’s TSP is still undetermined. A citizen group called the Project Advisory Committee (PAC) is helping the city staff, Oregon Department of Transportation, and consultants with updating the transportation system plan. At its first

meeting in November 2012, committee members enthusiastically discussed use of trolley buses to transport tourists and locals up and down Highway 101. The committee members supported the trolley service as a fun and sustainable way to show tourists the city, reduce congestion, and increase travel options for everyone. During the Jan. 26 event, city planners want to hear your thoughts on trolleys, the planning process, and on the following questions: • What do you like about traveling in Lincoln City? Is getting where you want to go an easy and pleasant trip? • Is there an intersection you feel is particularly congested? • Do you feel safe or unsafe driving, biking, or walking at locations within the city? • How is Lincoln City’s transit service? The planners encourage the public to visit www.lincolncitytsp. org on Jan. 26 or anytime to see how the Lincoln City TSP is progressing, to read the technical memos and the summary of the first project advisory committee meeting, and to make comments using the map or text box. In early March 2013, the city will be holding the second PAC meeting and another public event for the transportation system plan. If you want to be on the mailing list for notices, submit your email address via the city’s website or by contacting kated@lincolncity.org. For more information about the Lincoln City TSP, contact: Debra Martzahn, Lincoln City Senior Planner 541-9961228 or Stephanie Reid, Lincoln City Engineer at 541-9961236.

Lincoln City’s new police chief on the job Jeremy C. Ruark The News Guard

Keith Kilian, Lincoln City’s new police chief, began his duties in office Jan. 22. Kilian, 56, said his top priority will be to build trusting community relations. Chief Keith “I need Kilian to immediately garner the trust of the Lincoln City department heads, the police department and members of the community,” said Kilian. “I want people to know me and I want to know the history and culture and what Lincoln City is all about.” Kilian plans to be very

visible in the community. “I will put myself out there to meet and greet everyone,” he said. “I also plan to be out and about with my officers. I like to be involved in all facets of this job. You can take the cop off the street, but you can’t take the street out of the cop. That will be my focus.” Kilian replaces retiring police chief Steven Bechard. “I am coming into this position at a very good time,” said Kilian. “Chief Bechard is leaving a very good shop for me to come into. That is a blessing so I can take time to build those important community relations and learn about the agency.” Kilian acknowledged that much of his job will be administration. He calls himself a participatory manager.

“I am not going in with the idea that I have all the answers,” he said. “I am coming in with more questions than answers. I am looking forward to getting stated and I am looking forward to the challenges.” Kilian said those challenges will include budget issues and staffing to address the needs of the community. “Also, social services budget cutting has increased the demand for law enforcement services by our department,” he said. Kilian will also continue discussions started by Bechard concerning the

need to build a new police station. “I will be having discussions with city officials about the new police department and I hope to continue that work,” he said. Kilian, a longtime Clark County, Wash., law enforcement officer, was appointed Lincoln City Chief of Police earlier this month by City Manager David Hawker following an extensive search. Kilian’s swearing-in, open to the public, will take place at 9 a.m., Friday, Jan. 25, in the Council Chambers at City Hall, 801 S.W. Highway 101.

Depoe Bay looks at emergency preparedness Depoe Bay now has all five tsunami sirens in place following the installation of the fifth warning device Jan. 15 by a crew with G.B. Manchester Corporation. But at least two city officials say the city is not fully prepared for a tsunami. According to Depoe Bay Mayor A.J. Mattila, when an earthquake strikes or the tsunami sirens sound, some residents and visitors may not know what they mean or what to do.

There are four phases of emergency management — prevention. preparedness, response and recovery, she said. Graves experienced first-hand the recovery process during her visit to the village of Sandy Hook, where the ravaged elementary school is located. “It is a darling little town with wonderful, loving people who are just hurting trying to get through one day at a time,” she said. “All the school districts in the state have banded together to find a way to strengthen their plans to prevent something like this from ever happening again.” Graves, LCSD safety coordinator for the past 12 years, discussed the preparedness portion of the program. She shared practices for securing school buildings, steps to take locally for improved security, building design strategies for securing classrooms, and the legal and policy implications for implementing effective security practices. She emphasized development of faster and more efficient response time and having a coordinated plan in case something disastrous does occur, Customizing emergency plans to individual school buildings; training staff in the Incident Command System, and conducting frequent school drills were among her suggestions. “Developing trust and creating a positive school

Olsen believes most residents have emergency kits that could help them for a few days following such emergencies. “And we know that if the ground starts shaking, most of the residents will run to the hills,” said Olsen. “The visitors are the ones that worry me the most because they would be the first to panic and when there’s panic there’s trouble and people could get hurt.

“Where do we need to store water and food and where would evacuation meeting points be located?”

Mattila said Depoe Bay could take a lesson from Cannon Beach where city officials there have sited large shipping containers in the hills filled with emergency supplies. He said shipping containers could be part of the Depoe Bay emergency preparedness plan. “If those shipping containers can cross the ocean they could sure do well up here,” said Mattila. He is also concerned about keeping the city’s water supply safe following an earthquake.

Policy Advisory Commission, conducted a teachback session, where attendees relayed what they had learned to local public safety officials. On the third day, strategic planning meetings were held to review the planning process, evaluate the course curriculum and provide input for implementation of the course at the local level. “How do you make this presentation more relevant? How do you improve it? Those are the things we talked about,” Graves said. Participants customized plans based on each state’s needs. Included in the discussion were logistical matters such as risk and geography and how they COURTESY PHOTO affect response time and the ability to get to high ground.

climate can also be very effective in improving school security,” she said. For example, the Lincoln City Police Department assigns a uniformed School Resource Officer at Taft High 7-12. Officer Oscar Escalante has an office at the school and routinely interacts with the students and staff. He also is available as a resource to Oceanlake and Taft elementary schools. “Not only does Officer Escalante provide law enforcement and law-related education, he is excellent at building relationships with our students,” Graves said. “This is a very powerful approach that does work.” Over the past year, Graves has been invited by the U.S. Department of Education (DOE) to present their four-hour course, “Readiness and Emergency Management for Schools,” throughout the nation before representatives of hundreds of school districts, helping them become better prepared for emergencies of all sorts. Behind longtime grants and assistance from DOE, the district has been able to strengthen its emergency plans, Graves said. “In return, the school district supports me in my role as educator to other districts,” she said. “This collaborative relationship with other agencies ultimately benefits our own students and staff, making our schools safer for everyone.” Graves is no stranger to involvement in dealing with unusual safety concerns

Sheriff’s Tips

Throw a dog a bone, or reconsider Sheriff’s Tips By Sheriff Dennis Dotson

When living in the wild, wolves, coyotes, and wild dogs as well as wild cats rely on eating bones to obtain their daily supplement of calcium, phosphorus and protein. Therefore it stands to reason that many people believe that certain types of uncooked or raw bones are not only safe for their pets, but a healthy supplement.

In today’s society, a domesticated animal can get all the nutrients it needs from eating a good quality commercial dog or cat food. And although raw bones may seem like a good choice, there is still a risk of the bone carrying bacteria such as salmonella or e-coli along with complications arising from ingesting bone fragments. Cooked chicken, fish, and pork bones are especially dangerous for dogs and cats. These types of bones can splinter easily or have a tendency to

become sharp. Splinters can often become lodged in the animal’s throat, stomach or intestines; sometimes causing piercing injuries that can be fatal. Animals that gobble their food could be in grave danger around any type of bone; cooked or raw! An indication of a possible obstruction could be marked by vomiting, rectal bleeding, diarrhea, straining, or extreme sensitivity to palpation of the abdomen. Another potentially fatal problem recorded in both dogs and cats is “Salmon Poisoning.” This disease is

contracted by eating raw salmon or trout. Salmon poisoning occurs within two weeks of the ingestion of infected food. Symptoms include depression, fever and lack of appetite, swelling of the lymph nodes, vomiting blood, or diarrhea. Death estimates are in the 90 percentile if left untreated. The bottom line is that you may not want to risk your beloved pets’ health by taking a chance by feeding it raw fish, raw bones, or cooked bones. As your pets’ guardian, be cautious! A hard rubber treat-filled

“Kong” toy or a chew treat may be a more suitable substitute and will be less likely to cause you and your pet a costly emergency trip to your Veterinarian! If your dog or cat has ingested bones recently or has been around raw salmon or trout and shows any of the above symptoms, your dog’s veterinarian should be contacted immediately.

She had a large circle of friends who helped her with her fight and were there for her to the very end. They drove her to and from OHSU, doctor visits, movies, the theatre, shopping, or wherever she needed to go. They helped her take care of her own pets, with chores around her house, came just to play games, made sure there were always beautiful flowers in her home, helped her understand the medical jargon and prescriptions, and made sure that her favorite foods were in her kitchen. Then there’s Traci and the wonderful staff at Critter Cottage who made sure that the dogs were the priority and that the business continued to run as Jane expected. As the disease progressed and more care was needed, we were most fortunate to work with the home health care agency, “Aging Wisely.” From the office staff to the caregivers, their level of professionalism, caring, and compassion was unmatched. Also, much appreciation to North Lincoln Hospice for making Jane’s final days so comfortable and peaceful. Thank you! We are sad to have lost our friend, but happy that Jane is at peace.

Guest Commentary

Getting down to business at the 2013 Oregon Legislature

The start of a Legislative Session is much like the first day of school. Everyone wears their best clothes and is upbeat, friendly, and excited. The seniors David all size up the Gomberg new freshmen. There is a big assembly – where we are all sworn into office. Then we get a speech from the principal, or in this case, the governor. Classes are assigned. My “classes” will be the Education Committee, the Human Services and Housing Committee and the Budget Committee for General Government. You meet with teachers – the Committee Chairs. There are also homework assignments. On the opening day of Session, 1200 bills were introduced, and we are hard at work reviewing each to determine which to encourage or support, and which will affect this district the most. Then everyone sets about learning where the

rooms, elevators and toilets are. I was pleased with the Governor’s message on Monday. Doctor Kitzhaber seems intent on tackling big and bold issues to save money, create jobs, improve education and better the lives of Oregonians. Working to improve the delivery while reducing the cost of health care will continue. Central issues for the next six months will include reforming the PERS retirement system and restructuring public safety. For PERS, we need to make sure whatever we do is fair to recipients, produces substantial savings and is likely to pass court review. At last count, there were about 1,100 PERS recipients in Lincoln County earning an average of $14,000 per year. Public safety is a catch phrase for prisons and the money they consume. We’re presently spending over $30,000 a year to incarcerate criminals but only $10,000 to educate each student in our schools. So money we save on jails can help our schools. Our incarceration rate is low,

but our costs per inmate are high. Who should we lock up? How long? What are the costs and the possible consequences of any changes? I welcome this important conversation in Salem on how to reduce expenses, while maintaining public safety. Meanwhile I’ve been busy on projects outside of the Capitol. On Wednesday, I testified for a second time to the Oregon Transportation Commission, urging them to complete work on the troublesome improvements to Highway 20 (Corvallis to Newport). Not only is this one of the most dangerous stretches of roadway in the state, there is also a significant ripple effect on our regional economy. Trucks destined for the Toledo Mill or the new International Terminal in Newport cannot navigate the tight Highway 20 turns and instead must detour through Lincoln City, Lincoln Beach and Depoe Bay. That creates even more traffic congestion, affecting our tourism, safety, livability, and the simple odds of making a left hand turn in August!

I’m pleased that ODOT agreed with us this week and has voted unanimously to move ahead and complete this critical project. The legislature is in recess for two weeks as staff organize our offices and committees organize their assignments. I’m spending the time with a series of Town Halls in Lincoln City, Newport and Tillamook, and I’ll be appearing before the County Commission later this month to talk about home businesses, local enterprise zones and job creation. In the coming months, I’ll report back in these pages to keep you informed on legislation and issues that affect all of us here at the beach. Please feel free to call or email my office with any questions, opinions or words of encouragement. Thank you so much for the honor of representing you! David Gomberg was sworn in Monday to represent District 10 from Waldport to Tillamook and inland to Sheridan. His new office email address is rep. davidgomberg@state.or.us

Lincoln County Conversation

Tires, brakes and community giving Pat Dean is the manager of Les Schwab Tire Center located at 1025 Highway 101 in Lincoln City. Dean and his company have been very active in local community service projects. Here, Dean took time to answer a few questions about his work: The News Guard: Tell us a little about your background with Les Schwab Tires. Dean: We promote from within. This is a company that’s built from the ground up, so when you go from Les Schwab, you start out changing tires or whatever and you work your way up, so I’ve moved from several different places in 21 years with the company, but I’ve been here in Lincoln City for almost six years. The News Guard: How did you get involved with the company? Dean: A friend, just like most people, you know, word of mouth. I started changing tires just like anyone else in the business and worked my way up to manager. The News Guard: Besides changing tires, what other services do you provide that you think people should know about?

Dean: Brakes, alignment, batteries, shocks, suspension, lots of different things. I mean, I can accessorize, do custom wheels, there are a lot of different add-on steps that we can put on a vehicle. I mean, it’s endless, but for the most part, batteries, shocks, brakes and, of course, tires. The News Guard: When dealing with these services, is there a busy season? Dean: Like anyone else in this area, with the tourism and the vacation rentals, the summer season is our busiest time just like anyone else with the influx of people into the community. And, then, of course, if there’s snow, we get busier at that time, too. The News Guard: How much does the Les Schwab brand help draw customers to your store? Dean: It helps a lot because you’re going to get the same service wherever you go. We’re locally run, locally managed, and our stores are basically run as a local business to help their communities. The News Guard: You are very

involved in community endeavors. Why is it important for Les Schwab to be involved, not only here locally, but throughout all its service areas? Dean: We’re a corporate-owned store, but each store runs its own independent business, so I have the ability to allocate my monies or efforts into whatever is happening in that community. We’re involved with the Angels (Anonymous), the Elks, the high school ... I mean it’s endless on who we help in this community. It’s only because the community does purchase from us. It’s like, we’re your local tire store, but you’re able to also go away from us and still have our support no matter where you go almost anywhere in the Northwest. The News Guard: Tell us something about yourself or the company that nobody knows. Dean: If you’re involved in the schools in some way or some form, have a child that goes to school in Neskowin or any of these schools, then somehow, through me, your children have been assisted because we give money to every school in the community, including the church schools. We try to support the community.

the battle.” Peters said his church is working to be a part of the community with a host of activities to attract new members. “We need to be actively involved in working with the schools and with the homeless,” said Peters. “It is also important to open up the church and to have web sites and use social networking to reach the young to let them know that we care.” Kyes is using athletics and space at his church as the draw. “I am trying to encourage more young people to come to our church through a partnership with the Lincoln City Community

Center,” said Kyes. “Part of that is bringing girls to play basketball here. We have a full size basketball court at our church. Kyes is also hopeful a youth soccer program through the church can be started along with a workout center for area youth. “We are working to put a gym in the church where kids can come and work out for free,” he said. “We already have some of the equipment for that project. “It is pretty hard to convince a kid to come to the church,” said Kyes. “But if the parents become aware of the church and its activities, and you can meet the parents, pretty soon those

families will be attracted to the church.” The Lutheran Church has also connected with various community organizations to sponsor community events like homeless outreach assistance projects and cancer screening events. “The cancer screening is a unique project for a church,” said Kyes. “We did find some folks with early stages of cancer and had them go see doctors to get treated.” Sebasty, also hopeful for new younger members, looks for grownups and seniors to become church members. “Once they become teens and adults they are involved in different worldly

“The important thing is that people have to seek God first and his blessing,” said Father Joseph Sebasty, at St. Augustine Catholic Church. “But unfortunately that is dying off and it may be influenced by social media.” Father Sebasty said his church must deal with seasonal losses of the flock. Many members leave for warmer climates in the winter while more people attend the church during the busy summer tourist season. “Attendance is not consistent,” he said. “We cannot make it consistent because people come and go.” John Peters, pastor at the Pacific Baptist Church in Cutler City, said the focus needs to be aimed at the young. “It is hard to reach younger people out of high school to age 45,” said Peters. “It seems the world offers them better times. They are looking for answers. We need to have answers for them.” Peters said many young people try to fill the hole that they feel in their life with drugs or alcohol. “Things that are temporary and not permanent,” Peters said. “We need to show them that the church is eternal.” Peters’ church and others in the community are developing outreach projects in an effort to rebuild their congregations. But the outreach is not traditional. “We can’t do things the way we did things in the 1940s, 50s and 60s,” said Peters. “We need to get out into the community and reach out to the new members rather than wait until they come to us. If we don’t start reaching the younger group we will be in big trouble. We will have lost

Humphrey’s bail set at $1.75 million Former Lincoln County School District teacher David L. Humphrey remains at the Lincoln County Jail following his arraignDavid ment Jan. 15 in a state Humphrey child pornography investigation. Humphrey was arrested Jan. 14 at his Lincoln City

home as the Oregon Justice Department investigation unfolded. State agents seized Humphrey’s computer during a court-ordered search of his home. He is charged with 10 counts of Encouraging Child Sex Abuse in the first degree and 15 counts of Encouraging Child Sex Abuse in the second degree. Humphrey’s bail has been set at $1,750,000. His next court appearance is set for Feb. 11 at 9:30 a.m. at Lincoln County Circuit Court.

Death investigation continues, victim identified Investigators have released the name of the man whose body was found in a room at the Ester Lee Motel at 3803 U.S. Highway 101 Jan. 14. Police have identified the man as Mark Palma, 63, of Portland. “Our officers were called to the Ester Lee Motel at about 11:41 a.m. to conduct a welfare check of a man that had not checked out of his room,” said Jeffery Winn, Lincoln City Police sergeant. “The death investigation is classified as suspicious just because of the circumstances and the way the deceased was found.” Officers discovered Palma’s body in one of the motel rooms after conducting the welfare check. The Lincoln County Medical Examiner was called to the scene. “We are still classifying this as a suspicious death until we receive test results from the medical examiner that could reveal the exact cause of death,” said Winn. He said the test results will not be available for several weeks.

NLFR district seeks volunteers North Lincoln Fire & Rescue District 1 is looking for a few good men and women. “Frequently people believe that this is a paid fire district, but it is a voluntary system,” said Jim Kusz, Lincoln County Fire & Rescue District 1 safety officer. “The misconception is that there are people waiting at the stations to go, but that is not the case. “ The District has eight paid staff and 75 volunteers that cover 85-square-miles from the Polk county line east, north to the Tillamook county line and south to the Siletz River. The district includes over 12,000

people. In 2012 the District responded to 2,011 calls for service. Currently the District lacks the needed volunteers necessary for specific areas that include Rose Lodge and Kernville. “We need volunteers that live in those areas to apply,” said Kusz. The volunteer candidates must pass a physical exam, drug test and agility test. Applications are now being taken at the North Lincoln Fire & Rescue District offices located at 4520 SE Highway 101. Call 541996-2233 for more details.

Economy

From page A1

“More people came to Lincoln City in the latter half of the year and they were staying at our hotels and visiting our shops,” said Anderson. “That tells me that consumer confidence is improving. I see travel money as being discretionary money and that people are now willing to let loose of that discretionary money.” He also cited expansion plans of the Chinook Winds Casino and stability of the Tanger Factory Outlet Center as positive economic indicators. Anderson said he even noticed the economic rebounding in 2011. “I counted 20 businesses that were new or remodel,” he said. “So that trend is continuing and is verified by the city manager’s graphics. We have definitely reached bottom and are on the uptick. Although slow, we are seeing healthy economic growth.” Nonni Augustine, Lincoln City Chamber of Commerce executive director, said local business operators

she’s talking with are also optimistic. “There does seem to be more optimism,” said Augustine. “People I’ve talked with do see business picking up especially right after the New Year. It was surprisingly busy with a healthy mix of locals and visitors from out of town.” But an even more significant factor is the number of people that are looking to settle in Lincoln City. “We have a lot of people inquiring about moving here,” said Augustine. “That is positive. People are checking us out. We have seen an uptick in traffic at our office with more face-to-face inquiries.” The Chamber is also seeing a rise in applications for business membership. “I feel that this is going to be a good year from the chamber perspective,” she said. “There is a lot of interest in capturing the business that comes through our town.” Mike Roy, the Lincoln County Board of Realtors president, confirms the recovery is under way in

the local housing market as well. Roy is also the owner and principal broker at Lincoln City Reality. “We are in the process of hiring three or four licensed realtors at my company,” said Roy. “We are seeing some good sales trends. In fact, the fourth quarter was our best quarter for our company.” Roy said historically low interest rates, housing becoming more affordable and an increase in consumer confidence have combined to help boost home sales locally, regionally and across the nation. “In Lincoln County the sale of single family residential dwellings is up 13 percent in volume and the average sales price is up one percent,” said Roy. “So we are starting to see prices bounce back.” He described the current Lincoln County home sales as a buyers market “Those that were sitting on the fence are realizing it’s a good time to buy,” he said. “Affordability of homes is better and the selection is good.”

The Lincoln City Council is expected to review a proposed Local Improvement District (LID) for a section of property at Devils Lake on Jan. 28. According to Stephanie Reid, Lincoln City City Engineer, property owners in the Devils Lake area triggered the development of the LID. “It is to provide sanitary sewer service to an area that is currently un-sewered,” said Reid. “The homes are all on septic tanks. The LID will contribute to the better health of Devils Lake.” Reid said removing the drain fields and the septic tanks near the shore is a positive environmental step. “The LID will also allow development of property without having to worry about septic tanks,” said Reid.

Reid said the LID funding would be charged to the 57 property owners in the proposed district bounded by NE Devils Lake Road, NE 15th Street, NE Voyage Avenue, NE Lake Drive and NE Lake Cove Drive. Those property owners would be assessed approximately $6,500 to be hooked up to the city’s sewer system. The property owners would also face system development charges (SDC) estimated to be $22,500 each, which includes on site sewer pumps system. The SDC’s could be funded at low interest rates over time provided that the property owner hooks up within the first two years of the project. Reid expects to take the LID proposal before the Lincoln City Council Jan. 28 to trigger the public review process. “That opens the public hearing process that the city

council intends to establish the Local Improvement District,” said Reid. “If the council approves the resolution to develop the LID, plans and specifications will be development, the project will be constructed and the individual property owners will be assessed the cost.” The Devils Lake LID construction could begin this summer. It could take about two months to complete. The city council authorized $18,000 to have an engineers study completed for the proposed LID. Affected property owners will be notified by letter from the city of LID public hearing. The hearing will be part of the Lincoln City Council session Jan. 28 that begins at 6 p.m. at Lincoln City Hall located at 801 SW Highway 101. For more details, call 541-996-2151.

This is one indication used by Lincoln City city management to gauge economic growth. Roy also said there is a sense of urgency with some home seekers because, “If the home is in good condition and it is priced to sell, it will sell, so people are recognizing that the prices are going back up and that the selection and inventory is being depleted.”

Roy said in 2011 the average single family residential home sold for $241,756 in 2012 the average price was at $245,720. He said the depletion of distressed properties is also a leading factor in the home sales recovery. “There are less short

sales and bank owned homes on the market,” said Roy. “That means there is better opportunity for open market sales because they are not competing with the distressed properties. The distressed properties had been a drag on the market values.”

Taft girls drop opening league games JIM FOSSUM The News Guard

Oregon West girls basketball standings

Perhaps the best way to look at the Oregon West Conference girls basketball season for the Taft Tigers is to use it as a forum to right a wrong. Not long after losing a couple of close games to fellow Class 4A teams — one on its own doing and another following a controversial call — Taft remained in search of its first victory over a Class 4A opponent in nearly five years last week in falling to Stayton in the league opener on the road and to Philomath at home. Seventy-seven games have been played and lost to Class 4A opponents since Feb. 2, 2008, when the Tigers defeated Sweet Home of the then Val-Co League. Still, plenty of opportunities await despite the 0-2 start to league play. “As far as I’m concerned, we snapped that streak, but the record books are never going to show that,” Taft coach Dan Mock said of an earlier 31-30 home loss to Yamhill-Carlton decided, Mock maintains, by a “phantom” traveling call. “We have a tough league and we know that.” Tough, as indicated by a 73-28 home loss to Philomath (12-2) on Friday,

Jan. 18, yet vulnerable, as noted in a 49-32 road defeat to Stayton (4-12), on Tuesday, Jan. 15. “They know about it, but I know about it more than they do,” Mock said of the losing streak that extends well past his 2 1/2 seasons as Taft coach. Taft (3-12) got an indication that it could be competitive enough to earn a Class 4 victory this season when it used 11 points from junior Taylor Adams and eight from senior Jessie Wisniewski to challenge the Eagles in Tuesday’s 17-point league-opening road loss. “We could have done better, but we didn’t execute the way that we needed to at times,” Mock said. “But I look forward to

meeting them again here [Friday, Feb. 1]. Frankly, I think we can make a good game out of that.” That was hardly the case Friday in the 45-point loss to the Warriors, however, when Adams again led the scoring for the Tigers with eight points. “That was a pretty painful loss, obviously,” Mock said. “We didn’t play our best game, but Philomath had a lot to do with that.

Flu bug can’t slow Taft swimmers JIM FOSSUM The News Guard

Several Taft swimmers were under the weather and couldn’t get under the water. Some did regardless, however, making the team’s performance Thursday, Jan. 17, at Philomath all the more gratifying for longtime coach Lissa Parker. “This was a hard meet for both girls and boys,” Parker said. “Over half the team has been sick and/or recovering from the bug that’s hit the schools.” Several Taft swimmers hit the pool, nonetheless. Despite slug-

gish preparations, the Tigers won the girls’ meet, and their small roster of boys challenged to get out of last place, finishing behind Cascade by a single point. “The boys had some great swims,” Parker said. “The guys’ numbers affect their ability to score.” Philomath won the boys’ competition with 253.5 points, followed by Central, 230.5; Newport, 189; Cascade, 117; and Taft, 116. The thunder was reserved for the Taft girls, who outlasted host Philomath 268 to 265 (followed by Central, 158; Newport, 132;

and Cascade, 91) when the Tigers “B” 400-yard freestyle relay team — comprised of freshman Makayla Martin and sophomores Katie McCardell, Shawna Harskjold and Charli Haft — placed fifth in the final event. Seconds earlier, in the same race, Taft’s “A” team, featuring seniors Destiny Zook, Kassie Gile and Marlee Garding, and Garding’s 14-year-old freshman sister, Madison, won the event with ease to make it possible for the “B” team to push the Tigers over the top. Zook was the only two-time individual winner for Taft, claim-

ing that event in a season-best 1:16.94 (she swam 1:14.84 in placing fifth last year at state) and the 200-yard individual medley in 2:35.49. Marlee Garding won the 500 free (6:07.16) and senior Brittney Knight the 100 backstroke (1:16.09) for the girls. Madison Garding was second in the 100 back and 200 IM. Senior Cammeron Kelso was the only winner in the boys’ side with a victory in the 200 IM (2:24.11). He placed second in the 100 back. Freshman Justin Delfin (100yard butterfly) and Gile (500

free) had third-place finishes for Taft. Freshmen Eva Barton and Dylan Mickelson; sophomores Averi Affeld-Anderson and BillyAnn Stempel; juniors Catey Payne, Eli Shott and Dan Stecher; and senior Phips Nesseler joined Madison Garding, Delfin, Haft, Martin and McCardell in improving their times. Nesseler, a foreign exchange student from Switzerland, was swimming in his last meet for Taft, which returns to the pool Tuesday, Jan. 29, for the PreDistrict Invite at the Lincoln City Community Center.

Taft High to host a history mystery on Jan. 27 Taft High School students are putting on the school’s annual Murder Mystery Jan. 27 at 1 and 6 p.m. with the help of the North Lincoln County Historical Museum. While it will still be held at the Eventuary, this year’s event is going back to its roots. “Last year, I was forced to make the choice to do the Murder Mystery independently,” Barton Howe, producer and writer of the Mystery Mystery, said. “I felt sad about that because it really took the event away from its roots. That’s why I’m so happy that this year, the history is not only back in the mystery, but that we have the chance to work with the museum again.” Wanting this year to be a classic mystery everyone can understand, Howe and his students set the time period in the 1950s. Because History Murder Mysteries are always set in famous time periods, it wasn’t hard to reason why this theme would be fun and popular. Howe, as usual, added his own little flare to it. Obviously, they are all decked out in fifties attire. Poodle skirts? Check. Slacks? Check. Pregnant bellies? Absolutely. Lots of pregnant people? Same there. This year’s mystery is titled, “Baby Boom” for a reason. Multi-millionaire, jet-

It’s been a lot of fun for the kids because, even though obviously none of them were alive then, they feel like they know a lot about it. Poodle skirts. Leather jackets.

of the characters in this story are original creations. Matthew Bayer, a freshman at Taft, will be playing the character Madison Talefine.

Taft wrestler places first in Florence Taft senior Zac Coultas showed championship form by claiming the 113-pound division of the annual Nick Lutz Wrestling Invitational in Florence by pinning two opponents and winning by decision in the title match. “Today was one of those days in which Zac really looked like a guy who will belong in state tournament competition,” Taft coach Luke Hall said. “This may be the best tournament I’ve seen him wrestle.” Hall said Coultas was consistently aggressive, particularly in his 11-5 defeat of Woodburn’s Temoatzin Lopez in the title match, where he scored

an escape, takedown and 3-point near-fall. “It’s encouraging to see Zac finishing matches strong like that,” Hall said. “We’ll see where things go from here, but it’s hard not to be excited about Zac’s state tournament prospects.” Wrestling at 160, Taft junior Seth Steere finished second with two major decision’s prior to a 5-0 defeat in the title match to Elmira’s Bryan Zimmerman. “In a lot of ways, this is the best I’ve seen Seth wrestle,” Hall said of his most fundamentally sound wrestler. “Siuslaw is where Seth really turned the corner last year from being a good wrestler to becoming a state participant. I’m

hoping this year that we’ve got some similar signs of growth to the next level.” Taft senior Sergio Velazquez, wrestling at 138, and senior Brandon Terrill, at 145, defeated four of their five opponents to place third. “Sergio continues to amaze me with his resiliency and competitive fire,” Hall said. “... Sergio just handles things in stride so well. I honestly can’t discern between when he’s excited or frustrated, and that level headedness really serves him well. “Brandon wrestles differently than most of our guys and that’s not an insult. He’s just much more calculated and cautious in his approach, and it keeps him in matches. Some

of our younger wrestlers need to implement some of Brandon’s approach into their own games.” On Wednesday, Jan. 16, in a four-team dual meet against three district opponents at Stayton, the Tigers defeated Junction City 36-27, but fell to the host Eagles 69-10 and Cottage Grove, 42-36. “With some manipulation of the lineup, we were able to represent 10 of the 14 weight classes and keep things interesting,” Hall said despite having to surrender 24 points to Stayton but getting three victories of its own by forfeit over Junction City. Coultas at 113, Joe Salsbery at 126, and Terrill at 145 were victorious for Taft against Junction City.

The construction manager/general contractor for the Taft project was Quade Commercial Construction of Lincoln City, which reports that 91 percent of project funds were expended locally, with Lincoln County subcontractors and businesses. • BOOK DONATION — Dutch Bros. Coffee in Newport contributed to the education of Lincoln County students by trading coffee for books on National Young Readers Day. Customers donated books in exchange for a free beverage. More than 800 books were collected and donated to the Lincoln County School District’s Homeless Education & Literacy Project (H.E.L.P.). Partnering with the H.E.L.P. Program was a fit for the book donation as H.E.L.P. focuses on strengthening homeless families through education. H.E.L.P. staff and volunteers will distribute the books to kids throughout the county at upcoming Read & Feed events. Read & Feeds encourage family literacy while providing a nutritious meal in a safe, warm atmosphere at host sites ranging from churches, schools and community organizations.

Parents and community volunteers read to children and, at the end of the night, the kids get to take free books home. “Allowing our students to pick out a special book to take home is a great way to promote a love of reading,” said Katey Townsend, LCSD’s coordinator for the homeless. Dutch Bros. Coffee owners Michael Bojarski and Amanda Fulton said they were appreciative of their customers’ generosity in donating so many quality books and plan to make the book collection an annual event.

The public is invited to get a first-hand look at the new classrooms in the 62-year-old Taft Elementary School building during an open house planned from 5:30 to 7 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 24. Last June, four portable classroom buildings were hauled from the north side of the school and were replaced by a permanent classroom addition that opened Jan. 7. The open house is being held in conjunction with Family Literacy Night. The public is welcome to visit the school, tour the new addition, and enjoy refreshments, including clam chowder provided by Mo’s Restaurant. Family literacy activities will begin at 6 p.m. and will include a book giveaway for children. The 9,700-square-foot school addition includes two sixth-grade classrooms, three special education classrooms, and space for the north area Homeless Education & Literacy Project (the school district’s program to assist homeless students). The expansion project was funded through proceeds from a $63 million general obligation bond measure that voters approved in May 2011.

lopsided loss to Stayton. “We gave up 24 points before even stepping on the mat thanks to forfeits, but we were beat on the mat, too,” Hall said. “ Still, the score isn’t necessarily indicative of the wrestling; we just have to do a better job avoiding the fall and prolonging matches.” The Tigers return to the mat Thursday, Jan. 24, at Junction City, then are scheduled to compete in the Sutherlin Wrestling Classic, Saturday, Jan. 26.

“Junction City is a program that is in a similar condition that we are,” Hall said. “They’re young, relatively inexperienced, and they struggle to fill a lineup. That said, it’s always good to grab a win, and this victory helps us feel pretty good about ourselves with such a limited roster.” Besides forfeits, Terrill at 145 and Sam Taylor at 152 earned victories for Taft against Cottage Grove. Velazquez at 138 and Steere at 170 earned victories for the Tigers in the

Tigers suffer two tough league defeats JIM FOSSUM The News Guard

Taft boys basketball coach Mark Williams had a diplomatic way of dismissing his team’s 61-58 Oregon West Conference home defeat to Philomath on Friday, Jan. 18. “What I told the team after the game is it’s nobody’s fault and everybody’s fault,” he said. “It doesn’t do any good to start to point fingers at this point. I’m certainly not going to.” The Tigers, just three days removed from another gut-wrenching league loss, 49-47 at Stayton to open the conference season on Tuesday, Jan. 15, fell to 7-8 with six of those defeats coming by a combined total of 15 points. On the bright side, the Tigers have shown resiliency in being combative in virtually every game they have played this season, including last week’s two losses to open league play. Truth be told, Taft coexists in the six-team Oregon West with five teams ranked among the top 18 in the state, according to the Oregon Student Activities Association rankings. As the only unranked team, any close game is a victory of sorts for the Tigers. Williams, however, is not about morale victories. “I don’t want to make a big thing out of it,” the second-year Taft coach said of his team’s failures to survive down the stretch of close contests. “The truth is, we did a really good job of fighting back to get into this game.” Down 13 in the second half, Taft used 3-pointers by seniors Skyler Lopez and Brent Martin and junior Ian Williams to slice Philomath’s lead to two in the waning seconds of the game before miscommunication on an inbounds pass from their own end cost the Tigers a chance at evening the score. “Skyler thought Brent was going to zig and he

Taft senior guard Brent Martin drives to the basket in the Tigers’ 61-58 home defeat to Philomath on Friday, Jan. 18. zagged,” Williams said, of the misdirected pass that was intercepted and ended the Tigers final threat with 7.5 seconds to play. Taft, reacting with its “black” or prevent defense used when the opposition tries to protect a lead and goes into a stall, chipped away at a double-digit deficit late in the game against the Warriors (10-3). “We played great defense down the stretch,” Williams said, whose Tigers were led by Martin with 16 points, Ian Williams with 12 and twin brothers Skyler and Tyler Lopez with nine each. “We didn’t play poorly,” he said. “We fought hard. and we made some great plays coming down the stretch. We made some mistakes, no doubt, but it’s not like we didn’t play well.” Same goes for Tuesday night on the road against the Eagles (9-7), when the Tigers led by one with

Last of the conifer forests Earth Abides By Ken McCormack

Last year, I measured 153 inches of rain on my porch. That’s over 12½ feet. In 2006, we had 10 inches in one day. The average western hemlock stores thousands of liters for summer air conditioning. An acre of forest can expel 20 tons of water to cool off. And 2012 was the hottest year on record. It got as high as 97 in September at my place. The low was 29 — in March. But extremes are rare. Conifers grow as long as the temperature is above 38. The climate suits them fine, and they prosper, crowding out the deciduous plants. You might be surprised to know, however, the original Northwest old-growth rainforest has long been headed for extinction. Ancient conifers first sprouted about 350 million years ago. They soon circled the entire planet. Dinosaurs grew long necks to peak over them. Then, 200 million years ago, broad-leaf flowering (deciduous) plants burst forth. They had so many survival advantages that they nearly took over the entire planet. The last major refuge of the old-growth conifer forest turned out to be right here, along the coast from Alaska to Northern California. Its particular composition changes in response to climate and logging. Oregon’s timber harvest increased 47 percent in the National Forest in 2011 and 24 percent on BLM land. When I lived in California, I used to wonder why the huge Sequoias and Redwoods — and some other plants — disappeared near the border. It’s because our specific forest began only about 14,000 years ago — when the last ice age ended. This area was completely covered with ice that extended southward to about California. As ice withdrew, it left bare rocky soil. Our forest started from scratch, probably with pines, and then evolved into the complex system of today. It took thousands of years and cannot be duplicated simply by re-planting. Since California’s forest was not under ice, it did not die off. It is different because it is much older. But trees can move around, like Ents in the Lord of the Rings, sometimes with a little help from us hobbits. Last year, I found a strange evergreen branch behind my house, with delicate long strands of needles, spread out gracefully like a fancy lady’s fan. I could not identify it for the simple reason it does not grow here. It’s a Sequoia washingtoniana. It must have been planted years ago by some anonymous hobbit. David Milarch, of an organization called Archangel Ancient Tree Archive, has been systematically cloning coast redwoods and planting them in southern Oregon. When Milarch died in 1991, he left his body only to meet an archangel. The angel told him to go back; he still had work to do. A few months later “light beings” entered his home and told him to “build an ark” to save the greatest trees on earth. They soak up the most carbon. My wife planted another sequoia on our property in 2000. It’s doing fine. This moderate, wet climate, grows on you, dripping from the night before, protecting the ecosystem. The overcast sky, the rain and fog that nurture the woods nurture your soul. Membranes start appearing between your toes. And 70 percent of the animal biomass is slugs. The struggle here is not against the elements, but one life form against another — competing for space and sun energy. If you spread out the 70 million needles from a single western hemlock you get a solar collector 10 times the size of a football field.

Karen Johansen loves to dance. “I love dancing and I love music,” said Johansen. “It’s always something that I wanted to do and now I am doing it.” Johansen is one of several local people taking part in the Dancing with the Local Stars fundraiser for Relay For Life and the Lincoln City Cultural Center Jan. 26 at the Cultural Center located at 540 Highway 101. Tickets for the event are $25 for dinner and the dance performance or $15 for the dance show only. “Dancing is magical for me because I love it so much,” she said. “It takes me away from stress. It’s just a happy time for me.” Johansen said the popularity of nationally televised dancing programs like ‘Dancing with the Stars’ can be a bit intimidating, especially for someone that wants to learn how to dance. “If you are watching that you could be scared to death,” said Johansen. “It’s not the average

dancing that most of us can do. It is extreme dancing.” Johansen said the local dancers that will perform at the Cultural Center Jan. 26 will offer a variety of dancing. “They are wonderful,” she said. Jim Rodriquez, a dance instructor at the Lincoln City Cultural Center, has organized the Jan. 26 first-time dancing fundraiser. “My wife Diane and I volunteer for Relay for Life, which raises money for the American Cancer Society, because we have nine members of our family who have

been affected by cancer. Seven have passed away, and two are survivors,” Rodriquez said. “They, and the thousands of others dealing with this dreadful disease, deserve our support.” Rodriquez hopes the event will raise between $3,000 and $4,000 with half the money going to the Lincoln City Cultural Center and the other half going to Relay For Life. Rodriquez has recruited some of the best dancers at the beach, in styles that range from country and salsa, to swing and cha cha, to waltz and cumbia. They’ll be dancing choreographed and rehearsed routines – some of the hottest footwork the center’s dance floor has ever seen, according to Nike Price of the Cultural Center. Among the performers will be Ernie and Tina Inclan, Dave and Julie Green, Chan and Betty Richie, Tony and Vickie Ames, David and Patty Volz, and Gail and Ed Hogan. You’ll also enjoy the moves of Julie Blair and her partner, Pete, and Carolyn Guptill and

her partner. Individual dancers set to perform are: Daniel Bastiam, Rebecca Frye, Rosanne Murphy, Austin Goins, Karen Johansen and Brad Whitaker. Bret Lucich will perform, along with Kali Slentz, with a special turn by event organizers, Jim and Diane Rodriquez. Expect a professional light show, lively entertainment by emcee Keith Altomare, and plenty of surprise guests. The fun will begin with a buffet dinner, with no-host wine and beer, at 5:30 pm. The menu will include smoked salmon, cheese, crackers and veggie tray from Chinook Winds Casino Resort and clam chowder from Mo’s, followed by desserts from My Petite Sweet and coffee provided by Strung Out on Beads and Coffee. The beer and wine are provided by the Nelscott Wine Shop. The dance performance will begin at 7 pm. Tickets are $25 for the whole evening, and $15 for just the show.

Trio Solisti adds Neskowin Chamber Music to its long list of performance venues when it presents the third concert in the 20122013 season on Sunday, January 27 at 3 p.m. at Camp Winema. The Trio — Maria Bachmann, violin, Alexis Pia Gerlach, cello, and Jon Klibonoff, piano — has been hailed as “the most exciting piano trio in America (New Yorker) and “the outstanding chamber music ensemble of it kind” (Wall Street Journal). They have made critically acclaimed debuts at The Kennedy Center and Lincoln Center’s Great Performances Series and at Town Hall’s Peoples’ Symphony Series in New York City. They have performed at the Wolf Trap Center for the Performing Arts as guests of the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, Seattle’s Meany Hall, and the Revelle Series in La Jolla, and in Canada and Italy. Trio Solisti, now in its eleventh year, is the founding ensemble at the Telluride MusicFest in Telluride, Colorado. Its members perform at other festivals around the country and as soloists with Virginia Symphony, the Buffalo Symphony, and with the Orchestra of The Hague in the Netherlands.

They have also presented a series of concerts at the Morgan Library in New York. They are currently in residence at Adelphi University in New York. Their recordings of the Dvorak Trios and Café Music, a compilation of works by Paul Schoenfield and Astor Piazzolla, have won high praise, as has their arrangement of Mussorgsky’s “Pictures at an Exhibition.” Fanfare Magazine called the latter performance “astonishing in sparkling clarity… surging with sensuality and dramatic contrasts.” An Outreach presentation by Trio Solisti will take place Jan. 28 at 8:30 a.m. at Nestucca High School in Cloverdale. Season tickets for Neskowin Chamber Music are $110. Single tickets are available, payable in advance and on a limited basis, for each concert for $25.
