The Lincoln City City Council has decided to wait, pending further review, before voting whether to adopt a Yes/ No Zone to better regulate Vacation Rental Dwellings (VRDs) in the city. The Yes/No Zone has sparked much debate at recent council sessions. The Council made its decision during its regular public session July 22. At that meeting, Richard Townsend, Lincoln City Community and Development director was preparing to present, an extensive review of comments with detailed neighborhood maps concerning the VRD Yes/No Zone as part of five recommendations made by the City’s VRD consensus group. Townsend said he planned to bring 15 other recommendations that address parking and enforcement regulations for the VRDs before the Council in the fall. But before Townsend could give the presentation, Dick Anderson, Lincoln City mayor, told Townsend and the Council that he was not ready to make a decision about the VRD Yes/No Zone recommendation. “I am not comfortable with making a decision tonight,” said Anderson.

You really can’t blame Lincoln City residents Frank and Lisa LoBello if they take the baseball anthem “Take Me Out to the Ballgame” to heart. The couple has spent the past 10 years visiting all 30 Major League Baseball ballparks, including many — the Metrodome in Minneapolis, Shea Stadium in New York, RFK in Washington, the old Busch Stadium in St. Louis and the original Yankee Stadium in New York — that are no longer in use or have been torn down. On Saturday, July 27, they’ll be honored for their extensive stadium ventures as Class of 2013 inductees into the Sports Travel and Tours (STAT) Baseball Stadium Hall of Fame at MLB’s annual Hall of Fame inductions in Cooperstown.

Villages at Cascade Head to be opened on limited basis Lincoln City officials are reopening access to “The Villages at Cascade Head” to motorized traffic on a limited basis. “The Villages at Cascade Head is beautiful country,” said David Hawker, Lincoln City city manager. “It is a wonderful place to see coastal flora and fauna, and I am pleased that City residents have the opportunity to enjoy it. By opening the road to vehicles on a limited basis, we will allow all of our residents to explore this special place in a way that will not harm the existing infrastructure and environment.” Hawker announced his intention to open the paved surface of N.E. Devil’s Lake Boulevard within “The Villages at Cascade Head” to motorized traffic on the last Saturday of the month for the months of July, August and September. The dates are July 27, Aug. 31, and Sept. 28. The paved surface will be

open to vehicles from 8 a.m. until 8 p.m. Vehicles will not be allowed to access nonpaved areas. In addition, no commercial vehicles will be allowed on those dates, and all off-road vehicle use will remain prohibited. On July 8, the Lincoln City City Council passed a traffic control resolution prohibiting motorized traffic (on-road and off-road) on the City-owned property known as “The Villages at Cascade Head.” The resolution authorizes the city manager to periodically open the paved road surface within the Villages for limited vehicle access to facilitate interim-park and open space use of the property. The City purchased The Villages at Cascade Head from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) at the end of May for $2.5 million. The property is the subject of an environmentally friendly development

plants. The master plan for the site designated 99 acres of land for an inter-connected network of nature parks and wildlife corridors.

The property also includes the northern end of the City’s Head to Bay trail, intended to link the nature park at the northern part of

the project with the Cityowned park on Siletz Bay via a bicycle and pedestrian trail. The City of Lincoln City plans to keep some of the property as open space, develop some of it for affordable housing, and then sell off pieces of the property to private investors to develop in an environmentally friendly fashion. In the meantime, the City will designate the property as an interim park. Due to the sensitive environment of the Villages at Cascade Head property and the condition of the road that runs through it, the City has chosen to limit vehicular access to the property, and permit only non-motorized and pedestrian access. However, the City Council and City Manager wished to grant limited vehicular access to the property in order to give those citizens who might not be able to access the property on foot a chance to enjoy it.

Septic tank inspections topic at join session How to deal with septic tank inspections in Lincoln City was a key issue discussed July 17 during a rare joint work session between the Lincoln City City Council and the Lincoln County Board of Commissioners. Lincoln City City Manager David Hawker said controlling the city’s septic tanks around Devils Lake has been an issue ignored by government officials. According to city officials, the septic tanks are contributing to water quality problems at the lake. “There are 770 septic systems in an urban density there,” said Hawker. “It should have never come to this point.” Hawker told county leaders that Lin-

coln City needed their support to find a fair and workable resolution to the septic tank inspections, but acknowledged that would not be easy. He said the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality is not moving quickly on any type of regulation. “So we need to ensure these septics are not polluting,” Hawker said. “One of the most difficult issues is what kind of inspections should be done. Should it be a simple visual inspection or a more complex inspection that could be intrusive and expensive?” Hawker said property owners would likely foot the bill for the inspections and

the City could issue a citation for those homeowners not in compliance. “We are certainly interested in working with the City to find a solution that meets needs of everyone involved,” said Doug Hunt, Lincoln County commissioner. “But it has to be a comprehensive approach. No one wants to take drastic action and force huge expenses on property owners.” Onno Husing, Lincoln County Department of Planning and Development director, cautioned the group that the impact to property owners of the inspections could be profound. “This is a complicated process,” said Husing. “Even if we clean up all the septics

more will have to be done because the lake is a sponge for generations of organisms, natural materials, wildlife and pet wastes. We need a comprehensive solution.” The commissioners and councilors also discussed an agreement concerning the purchase by the City of Lincoln City of a county-owned 156-acre tree farm inside the City’s watershed for $585,000, improvements to resolve flooding along East Devils Lake Road in Lincoln City and improvements along Highway 20. Hunt said the work to straighten curves along Highway 20 was a main factor to commit about $370 million for the 5.5 mile project.

Highway 101 paving in Lincoln, Tillamook counties Construction has started on the first of two paving projects that will place new asphalt on more than 27 miles of Highway 101 in Lincoln and Tillamook counties. The first project began July 22 from the Highway 18 interchange to just north of the Lincoln/Tillamook County line (milepost 90.33-105.64). The project will upgrade the pavement by adding a layer of new asphalt over the current surface. In some areas, a layer of old asphalt will be removed before a new layer is added. The work will be done during daytime hours and motorists can expect singlelane restrictions with traffic

controlled by flaggers. Motorists should anticipate delays of 5 to 15 minutes. The low-bid contract of $2.38 million was awarded to High Desert Aggregate and Paving, Inc., of Terrebonne. The second project will get under way in August and continue until the end of September. It will repave Highway 101 from Beverly Beach State Park to the north end of Newport and from just south of Newport to Waldport. There are three parts to the project: • Beverly Beach to the north end of Newport (MP 134.08-139.11) • Lost Creek recreation area

south through Seal Rock (MP 146.9 – 153.2) • North end of the Alsea Bay Bridge extending north about a half mile (MP 154.7155.25) The work will be conducted mostly during nighttime hours. To learn more about these projects, visit: http://www.oregon.gov/ODOT/HWY/REGION2/ Pages/current_projects.aspx For the latest road conditions, visit www.tripcheck.com.

Drivers should watch for paving projects on U.S. Highway 101 in Lincoln and Tillamook counties.

The Lincoln County School District Board met in regular session on July 16, at Newport High School and began discussions of finding a replacement for Superintendent Tom Rinearson. The board reached consensus to employ a search firm and to use Greg McKenzie of Window to Leadership. McKenzie has provided training to the LCSD Board for many years. The board chairman and vice chairman will be the primary contacts for the search. Board members also expressed interest in a creative solution to the superintendency, including the consideration of internal candidates. The Board’s recent approval of an amendment to Superintendent Ri-

dated the Board on facilities projects, including the old Waldport High School. The grandstands have been demolished, and plans are being formulated to remove the school, as required by the agreement with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Superintendent Rinearson said the old Taft

Elementary and the old Waldport Middle School are also being considered for demolition because they are becoming eyesores and expensive to maintain. Belloni reported the new Waldport High is on track to open Sept. 3. Crestview Heights School is also being renovated and is on schedule.

Prior to the meeting’s call to order, Business Manager Julie Baldwin administered oaths of office to Directors Ron Beck, Kelley Ellis, and Terri Woodd. Beck represents Zone 3 and was originally appointed to the Board in 2002 (re-elected several times since then). Ellis represents Zone 4 and was elected to a two-year

remainder term beginning in July 2011, and re-elected to a full four-year term. Woodd, representing Zone 5, was elected to a four-year term. This is the seat formerly held by Jean Turner, who served on the Board for over 10 years. The Board elected Ron Beck as Chairman and Liz Martin as Vice Chairman for the 2013-14 year.

Opinion Omsberg family member speaks out www.TheNewsGuard.com

July 24, 2013, 2013

The News Guard wrote a series of articles regarding the “Former Lincoln City Mortician”, Dale Omsberg. I was married to Dale for 15 years, of which 4 1/2 were spent in Lincoln City. There are a number of things I have wanted to say to the people of Lincoln City for a long time. And I feel it is time. My family and I are sorry for what happened. There were critical decisions that should have been made in place of bad decisions. Dale did not share his problems or decisions with anyone. His family and friends were stunned when events began to unravel in October 1984. What happened at the Lincoln City mortuary should not have happened. There is no justification for bad decisions that hurt people; however, there were a series of circumstances that took place that are attributable to the cause and effect of Dale’s actions. Dale purchased the Lincoln City mortuary in 1980. He ran this business for approximately four years and five months. The mortuary was a small business and as a small business he was dependent upon people paying what they owed.

New Details People making funeral arrangements with Dale signed a “contractual payment agreement” to pay for merchandise and services. However, collecting debts for services rendered was difficult at best. Dale attempted to collect by sending out monthly statements. Legal action was taken against people who owed the funeral home money. However, the Lincoln County Judge at the time often ruled in the debtor’s favor and the judgment order stated the debtor had no money, therefore stipulating that the debt was not collectable. In addition, there were several bankruptcies filed that negated the “contractual payment agreement.” Everyone who came through the door of the mortuary had a story and Dale gave each person an opportunity to pay when proceeds from life insurance was paid to the beneficiary, or to make payments.

Unfortunately, the same respect from the community was not reciprocated to Dale. In October 1984 the account receivables total was about $120,000.00. The idea of collecting money prior to a funeral service began in the mid 1980’s when mortuaries began taking a closer look at their account receivables and the difficulties of collecting after services had been rendered. There were several hundred dollars worth of items that Dale had paid for around Lincoln City but after his arrest and the story in the news media, when I contacted the vendors I was threatened. The items and money paid to vendors was gone. It is human nature to want someone to pay for his or her poor actions and behavior. Dale and his family paid a price for the bad decisions and actions that he made in Lincoln City. I did not realize it at the time, but reflecting back, the people of Lincoln City taught me valuable lessons and important parenting skills and abilities. You see, people would phone and leave horrible messages on our answering machine threatening my children’s

lives. If someone answered the phone they would say horrible things and threats to whomever picked up the phone. This occurred for a number of years after Dale’s arrest in Lincoln City. I attempted to enroll my children in public school and they said they could not protect my children and a private school would be a safer place for them. I found private Christian schools that educated and made certain my children were safe and secure. I learned to be attentive to our surroundings and their needs. I learned to listen to my children. They learned from a very young age that accountability, honesty and respect for another human being is a requirement for daily living and successful lives. There were years that were difficult at best, our lives are a little scarred but we survived and I think we are better for it. Mary Lou Editors Note: A special series of reports concerning Mr. Omsberg were published in the News Guard in May and June. Read the articles at thenewsguard.com.

Voices of Lincoln County Dog-O-Phobia Last weekend I loaded up my trusted friend, Maggie The Wonder Dog, and headed out to explore the Neskowin Farmers’ Market for the first time. It was a small market comprised of 6 or 7 booths peddling produce and crafts. But as Maggie and I neared the first booth, a peddler shouted over the tops of her vegetables that dogs were not welcome at this market. Surprised and disappointed, I loaded Maggie back in the car and we drove up to the Dory Days celebration in Pacific City. The artisans in Pacific City welcomed us. Two of the booths were actually providing treats to dogs. We had a great time, Maggie got a lot of attention, and I spent more than I had planned on purchasing several gifts I needed. There were quite a few dogs there and nary a problem. I suppose on occasion a dog might cause some disturbance at events like this,

or leave behind an unwanted deposit, but over the years I’ve seen more problems from unleashed children and ill-behaved adults than from dogs. I have to concede that the dog-o-phobics (Cynophobics) probably need some place to go where they feel safe so I imagine that the mini Farmers’ Market in Neskowin serves a useful function. But I will generally reserve my shopping for dog-friendly places like Pacific City and the Lincoln City Farmers’ Market that we frequent. As Andy Rooney once stated, “The average dog is a nicer person than the average person.” Mike Marshall Neotsu

DLWID Directors please listen to the public The DLWID has alerted people on July 9th that Devils Lake has visible blue green algae across the lake. Moder-

ate and high concentrations are reported in 7 of the 12 monitoring stations, with HEAVY SCUM at East Devils Lake State Park. DLWID also reports that the lake temperature is 74F and the lake level has been dropped by DLWID nearly 6 inches from the level authorized by the State Water Master. What does this temp/ level/scum information mean to users of Devils Lake? The blue-green algae can at any time turn into liver or nervous system toxins that can be lethal to pets [when they lick their fur after playing in the water] or make children very sick [by ingesting water while swimming]. Why does 6 inches of water make a difference? In Devils Lake the reduction of water level 6 inches amounts to over 110,000,000 gallons of water. This water, if left in the lake, would lower the lake temperature for young salmon [75F is lethal] and delay the onset and severity of the blue-green algae and its scum.

We are experiencing some of the earliest onset of severe blue-green algae on record. The DLWID decision to lower the lake level and the further discussions to lower it even further will kill pets, endanger children and threaten young salmon. Please tell the DLWID Directors and the lake manager that it is wrong and dangerous to lower the lake. board@ dlwid.org. Jack Strayer Lincoln City

Bad drivers I would like to make a few comments as to Washington drivers at the Oregon coast and in Oregon statewide. I wish these people would go back to their own state. When they come into Oregon their driving rules change. Some of them drive OK and others drive like they own our highways. They are very rude and impatient with your driving. I lived in Washington for a few years and I know that they do not

drive that way in their own state. The State of Oregon does not have the number of police officers like they have in Washington, so I guess that is why they think they can get away with driving recklessly in Oregon. I like Washington people spending money here in Oregon, but leave your bad driving habits in your own state of Washington and go back to Washington after your visit. I would think twice about buying vacation homes in our State of Oregon as there are a very large number of homes in your own state to purchase as vacation homes. A number of people are getting very tired of getting flipped off for being in their way and not going faster than the posted speed limits in different areas. You look through your rearview and they keep trying to push you into going faster for them. If you go faster and get pulled over they just keep on driving by. Stuart Wood Lincoln City

What to do when lost or stranded in the woods

If you are not prepared and don’t know about the wooded areas you want to explore, don’t go. Wait and go with someone who’s familiar with the area. Study maps and search the Internet for more information about the area you’re looking to explore. If you followed our Sheriff’s tip two weeks ago on being prepared when traveling back roads and trails, you will have the essentials to assist in your own rescue. Each time Search and Rescue (SAR) teams in Oregon initiate a rescue, we learn more about human behavior and what we do in a situation depending on health, experience and knowledge of the area. The one item of importance we touched on in the last article is letting your family or friends know where you are going, when you are expected back, and, most important, do not hesitate to call for help. This is a beautiful state we live in, but it can be very unforgiving when the elements and the environment change. If you are traveling on the back roads and your vehicle breaks down, stay with your vehicle. Try your cell phone.

Sheriff’s Tips By Sheriff Dennis Dotson

If there is no cell service, stay with your vehicle. The vehicle is your shelter from the elements and your vehicle is easier to spot from a plane or helicopter. If it is too hazardous to remain with the vehicle, don’t walk further than eyesight from the vehicle. Often, a person attempts to walk out and ends up in more danger than if they had waited. If you are lost or injured in the woods, stay near a trail and try and make yourself a shelter. If you can, prepare an area for a warming/signal fire. Keep in mind the time of the year and the conditions in the woods. You don’t want to have a forest fire. Staying dry and warm is very important. Stay hydrated if it is warm. Remain calm and listen for searchers and, hopefully, you have a signal whistle in your pack. Listen for aircraft in the area. Hopefully, you have packed a signal mirror or

A Moment in History This photo shows John Elder (left) and Johnny Block at the Crab Pot in Cutler City in the 1930s. At that time they sold crab by size and kept a notched stick for measuring behind the counter.

Be prepared flashlight. Each year, we look for mushroom pickers. They get turned around and can’t find their way back to their vehicle. Many have been rescued because they had cell service; some have never been found. Pay attention to the direction you are going and stay as close to the trails as you can. Some will mark their way in with surveyors tape and collect it on their way out.

It’s easy to get turned around when you walk with your head down all day looking for mushrooms. That is why it is important to have a map and become familiar with the area. Today you can purchase a good Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) device for under $100 that can lead you back to where you started. Most important, stay calm and conserve your energy. Some people panic and wander off from the area,

resulting in injury. We hope you plan your trip according to our recommendations. You can never be too prepared, but being unprepared can cost you your life. When you choose to explore the areas of this great state, please be safe.

Pedestrian Enforcement Operation nabs violators

T

JEREMY C. RUARK The News Guard

Walking across the street in Lincoln City can be very dangerous for both pedestrians and motorists. Just ask John Petersen. Petersen, a Lincoln City Police Department reserve officer, was the decoy in a department pedestrian safety enforcement operation held on the morning of July 22 at S. 3rd Street and Highway 101. Petersen spent time walking back and fourth at various times across the intersection while Officer Craig Grabenhorst, and Sgt. Jeffery Winn stationed nearby, watched for violators. Several times, vehicles came close to Petersen and drove by him without stopping. “The biggest violators are drivers not paying attention to where they are going,” said Petersen. “They are too busy talking on their cell phones and texting, and they don’t pay attention to the cars in front of them.” Petersen said he carefully watched each vehicle as he began crossing the road. “I don’t give the drivers

Grabenhorst radioed the violators’ vehicle description and license number to two waiting police patrol cars just a few blocks away on each side of the pedestrian

operation. The patrol officers caught up with the violating drivers and issued either citations or warnings. “We issued a total of 17 citations for violating crosswalk laws,” said Sgt. Winn. “There were five

warnings issued and two warnings for other unrelated violations.” Winn said the visibility of the operation added to its success. “The people who drove by saw the patrol cars, they saw as working, an

they saw the big yellow pedestrian safety warning signs,” said Winn. “It makes them think as they go through their day and we hope they will now watch for pedestrians.” Petersen said the most frequent violators are drivers who don’t see other drivers stopping in the lanes next to them. “When we have two lanes going in the same direction, one car will stop when the pedestrian steps onto the crosswalk, but the drivers in the adjacent lanes don’t realize that there is a reason the other car has stopped, and they keep on driving.” Police have recorded several near misses and rear-end accidents as a

result. “Our main goal is to keep the pedestrians safe and raise that awareness,” said Winn. “It never comes out good for a pedestrian when they are hit by a car.” The July 22 enforcement was funded through a grant to pay for officers’ overtime used during the operation. Lincoln City Police plan to conduct more pedestrian enforcement operations as funds become available. But Winn said they would be limited to weekdays and not held during weekends. “We are very aware of the tourist industry and don’t want people to think that we are targeting tourists who might not know about the enforcement,” Winn said.

Lincoln County receives grants for bridge, boating facility improvements

The Lincoln County fire crew takes a moment after completing its work. The team helped protect homes and eliminate hot spots at a wildfire near Grants Pass.

Local crews help battle Grants Pass wildfire Fire crews from Lincoln County returned to their stations earlier this week after working with other fire crews battling a wildfire near Grants Pass. The Lincoln County crews were activated July 19 to the Pacifica Conflagration fire south of Grants Pass. Fire apparatus from North Lincoln Fire & Rescue District #1, Newport Fire Department, Toledo Fire & Rescue, Central Coast Fire, personnel from Yachats, and a Siuslaw Valley Fire & Rescue crew and engine gathered at midnight July 19 in Toledo and convoyed the five-hour drive to the area to battle the blaze. The wildfire had claimed one home, six outbuildings, scorched 500 acres and cost an estimated $1.5 million.

“Normally, Lincoln County sends a task force comprised of four Type 1 or 2 engines and one water tender,” said Andrew Parker, Strike Team leader from Newport. “We were requested to send a Strike Team of five Type 1 engines,” Fire crews from Linn, Lane and Marion counties were also called to the blaze. Lincoln County’s team was assigned structural protection. Crews were able to save two structures. Crews also put out hot spots in the extremely dry conditions. By late Saturday, temperatures rose and winds began to gust, creating a flare-up on the boarder of the fire that threatened a home. Lincoln County crews battled that fire and Hot Shot crews worked until Sunday

morning falling trees and extinguishing other hot spots. “It was very hot and dry,” said Captain Jim Kusz with North Lincoln Fire & Rescue District #1. “When you get a fire like this it moves quickly and scorches the earth like we saw when bombs where dropped in Vietnam.” Crews were hampered by temperatures into the low 100s, humidity as low as 14 percent and winds exceeding 25 mph. “The Lincoln County team performed extremely well, Parker said. “A total of 22 personal responded some for the first time and some that have over 20 years wildland experience Our team was able to complete their tasks without incident or injury and gain experience for the new firefighters.”

Lincoln County has received a grant from the Oregon State Marine Board (OSMB) for boating facility improvements at Ojalla Bridge on the Siletz River. The Siletz River is a popular coastal river with anglers. However, public access to the lower river is limited. The Ojalla Bridge site, which is owned by the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW), is a heavily used, informal access site that was created by boaters. Lincoln County has entered into a lease agreement with ODFW and will manage the site. When the project is completed boaters can expect to see a new pole slide, a safe parking area and restroom facilities. Lincoln County was awarded $74,425 in state boater funds, $295,575 from ODFW in federal Sport Fish Restoration funds combined with a $12,000 cash match from the county. The total project cost is $382,000. OSMB has also issued a grant to Lincoln County for the boating facility improvement at Morgan Park on the Siletz River. The Siletz River offers one of the most popular fisheries in Oregon. Morgan Park is one of the most popular sites for launching on the river for access to wild and stocked trout, Chinook, and summer and winter steelhead. The existing asphalt ramp at Morgan Park was constructed in the 70’s and has outlived its usefulness. The project will replace the

Lincoln County was awarded $106,900 in state boater funds, combined with a $13,100 cash match from the county for a total cost of $120,000. OSMB approved the grants at its quarterly Board meeting June 25, in Salem. The Marine Board is funded by registration fees and marine fuel taxes paid

by boaters. No general fund tax dollars are used to support the agency or its programs. Boater-paid fees go back to boaters in the form of law enforcement services (on-the-water enforcement, training and equipment), education/outreach materials and boating access facilities.

Whether to approve the yes/ no overlay or not, where to place them, there are many issues related to this that needs to be discussed.” Councilor Wes Ryan also voiced concerns about making a quick decision. “The one problem I am having with the zones is the cutting across other properties,” said Ryan. “There has to be a better way to do that. I am also uncomfortable with some of the no zone areas.” Councilor Roger Sprague said he worried about enforcing the yes/no zones. “I would like to see how we would deal with enforcement,” said Sprague. “We need to see the whole package rather than piece meal it.” Councilor Gary Ellingson urged the council not to make a quick decision about the VRD regulation recommendations. Councilor Chester Noreikis agreed. “I want to make sure we aren’t forcing something,” said Noreikis. “I, too, am not ready to make a decision.” Anderson commended the consensus group for making its recommendations but clarified the issue facing the Council. “The difference is making recommendations and making them into law and that’s where I want to get comfortable,” said Anderson. Anderson also recommended that the public carefully review the VRD report and recommendations that are online at the City’s web site. Additional public review will be held before the Lincoln City Planning Commission in September and

ing arts groups and acknowledge the role those organizations play in Oregon’s social, educational and economic arenas. Arts Learning grants support the arts as a critical link to educational achievement. They include inclassroom, after-school, and off-site activities, contributing to Oregon’s high-level goals for education. Arts Services grants provide operating

funds for arts councils and other groups working to make the arts accessible in all parts of Oregon. In some cases, arts organizations received grants in more than one category based on their programming. In others, the nonprofits received operating support or arts services grants for programs that had youth, scholastic or lifelong learning

components. In announcing the grants, Christine D’Arcy of Executive Director of the Arts Commission, said, “These arts organizations are not only enabling Oregonians to experience great art, live performances and new works, they’re making Oregon a better place by retaining jobs, inspiring students and providing lifelong learning for our citizens.”

roles and duties will allow these administrators to bring their best to our students and teaching staff at these two schools, as well as district-wide.” Reed thanked his family “for their incredible support and commitment to make Taft a great place,” and the students “for all of your effort and perseverance.” “And my heartfelt appreciation to the amazing staff at Taft,” he said. “Thanks for being a great team, and a better family.” Reed also thanked Hawkins and Tucker “for making the last couple of years a joy.” “I am proud of the huge change in student behavior over the past six years,” he said. “I am proud of the facilities that have been improved dramatically. I am proud of how many students successfully complete

college credits. I am proud of the academic focus and the huge change in test scores. I am proud of the staff for focusing on knowing each student and developing character.” Rinearson said a recent incident regarding a stolen plaque that caused local concern was not a factor in his decision. Reed refused to prosecute the perpetrator against several community members’ wishes after meeting with him individually regarding the matter. “Scott is extremely knowledgeable in positive behavior interventions, alternative education and will help institute these approaches into our other schools,” Rinearson said. “It is unfortunate that my decision to make these administrative changes comes at the same time that there is some community controversy about a plaque that was stolen, but my decision is totally unrelated to that matter.”

Frank, 54, who works in food and beverage at Chinook Winds Casino Resort, is more of a fan from the grass roots level. He watched the Dodgers growing up by going to games on weekends dating to the days of Hall of Fame pitcher Sandy Koufax. His favorite player today is Dodgers AllStar Clayton Kershaw. “I do not like the Giants,” Frank said. “When we were

in San Francisco last year, that was not easy for me. I did not wear my Dodger shirts, [Reds outfielder] Jay Bruce hit a home run and I think I was the only one in the stadium to cheer.” The Reds lost to the rival Giants that day. Needing a souvenir just the same, “I bought a pencil,” Frank said. Once in the stadium, Lisa has turned into somewhat of an autograph hound. She has the signature of Seattle ace Felix Hernandez and several lesser-known players but AllStars just the same, players such as Dan Haren and David Eckstein. The LoBello’s, who will be among 40 fans to be inducted into the elite STAT club on Saturday, bringing the number of inductees to 88, have collected numerous souvenirs during their time on the road, the most improbable being George Washington bobblehead. “We’ve met a lot of interesting people and keep in touch with them as much as we can,” Frank said. “We just hang out and have a good time.” For further information on the stadium trips and to join baseball fans on an excursion, call 800-662-4424 or go to sportstravelandtours.com.

of the stadium. Not surprisingly, Frank picks Dodger Stadium as his favorite baseball venue, while Lisa chooses Fenway Park. And to think Lisa doesn’t necessarily like the game. “I’m not a baseball fan,” she said, “I get bored by the third inning, but that’s when I walk around the stadium and look around. I just thought it would be fun to see all the cities. Who wouldn’t want to see Boston and New York?” Or Camden Yards in Baltimore. Or Safeco Field in Seattle? Been there, done that, the LoBellos can rightly say. For prices ranging from around $1,000 to $2,000 per person, which includes transportation, lodging and game tickets, STAT travelers receive a custom “Passport to Baseball” and a stamp for each ballpark visited. Once you visit all 30 parks, you become eligible for Hall of Fame induction. Along the way, you’re treated like royalty, they said, just like the Cooperstown baseball inductees, although no one was elected this season. The Lobello’s first trip was to the East Coast in 2004, where they saw the Red Sox, Orioles, Mets and Yankees, and visited Cooperstown, fulfilling a top spot on Frank’s bucket list. Their longest excursion was a two-week trek by bus through the Midwest, from Chicago, to St. Louis, to Minneapolis and Kansas City, then back to Chicago to see the Cubs. They took their shortest trip this summer when they visited San Diego and Los Angeles. “Of course, with the Dodgers being my favorite team, I saved them for last,” Frank said. It was Lisa, though, who, while thumbing through one of Frank’s sports magazines, happened upon an advertisement for the trips. She became a not-so-loyal Red Sox fan because of the presence of former Oregon State star Jacoby Ellsbury.

Dorothy Virginia Walker of Toledo had called on a 911 emergency line, and hung up prior to dispatch being able to obtain critical information. Lopez called Walker by phone and determined she did not have an emergency, and was only requesting police for a civil issue. Walker was provided with instructions on obtaining a restraining order. Authorities said Walker called 911 several more times throughout the evening without having an

Golfers from high school teens to elderly civic leaders took their swings Saturday for the betterment of area youth at the fourth annual “Golf Fore! The Kids” charity tournament at Chinook Winds Golf Resort. The tournament, hosted under gorgeous playing conditions by Neighbors for Kids (NFK) to primarily benefit its Kids Zone summer and after-school program, brought together players of all skill levels for a morning of golf and afternoon of lunch and fundraising. “We’re really happy with the turnout,” NFK Executive Director Toby Winn said as the tournament’s turnout nearly doubled from a year ago. Twenty-one foursomes

opposed to 11 last summer competed Saturday, July, 20, and all 18 holes were sponsored by area businesses and organizations. Several new partnerships were formed, including one with Samaritan Health Services, whose CEO and president, Larry Mullins, was among the dignitaries to compete. KATU-TV AM Northwest host Dave Anderson served as master of ceremonies, while teams from each of Lincoln County’s four high schools — Taft High 7-12, Newport, Toledo and Waldport — also took part. “We had 84 golfers this year, including four teams

from four different high schools competing, which was a great piece of the tournament,” Winn said. “There’s been a lot of work by the Board of Directors, community volunteers, kids, parents who volunteered today, everyone.” Golfers had a shot at winning a replica Shelby Cobra for a hole-in-one on the 210-yard, par-3 18th hole, and players and guests had an opportunity to bid during a silent auction. Proceeds benefitted NFK’s community youth programs, such as its afterschool and summer Kids Zone. Also benefitting were

the Youth Entrepreneurship program in partnership with Oregon Coast Community College and NFK’s expanded programs in tutoring, art, music, computer literacy and science. “The tournament is mostly for after-school and summer education enrichment — art, science, computers, music — programs like that,” Winn said.”It’s our largest fundraiser of the year, so we’re really happy.” For more information about NFK activities or to contribute to the organization, go to www.neighborsforkids.org or Like Us on Facebook.

Lincoln City wins Babe Ruth tournament JIM FOSSUM The News Guard

A revamped Lincoln City roster decimated by commitments to high school football camp and summer vacations won the annual Lincoln County Babe Ruth League baseball tournament Sunday in Toledo by defeating Newport in the championship game. “The boys played great,” Lincoln City coach Daniel Cochran said. “They showed a lot of heart and displayed excellent sportsmanship.” Lincoln City, which Cochran said took some 15-yearold players from the league who had pulled out to travel earlier in the summer, helped the local team defeat Newport 2, which was coming off defeats of Siletz and Waldport

earlier in the day. “I am very proud of them and the way they played,” Cochran said. “We missed the other Babe Ruth boys in the tournament. I understand that it caused some controversy, but we got the decision cleared beforehand and all players are of legal age to play in Babe Ruth.” Lincoln City erased a big deficit in winning the title game, 9-7, after surrendering two runs in the first and second innings and another in the fourth. Lincoln City scored its first run in the fourth when Joe Salsbery singled and was driven home by Mike Zacharias. A six-run fifth-inning rally, with most of the runs scoring with two outs, made it 7-5 before the local team matched

Newport by scoring runs in the sixth and seventh innings. Alroy Zacharias pitched 4 2/3 innings for Lincoln City before Salsbery came on in relief. Salsbery was 3-for-4 with two triples and an RBI; Alroy Zacharias 3-for-4 with an RBI; Mike Zacharias 2-for-3 with a triple and an RBI; and Dakota Picard 2-for-4 with an RBI. Lincoln City, which was represented by Joe DeMello, Pete Lahti, Charlie Zacharias, Joel Clarke, Charlie Zellar, Grant Prins, Caleb King, and Lokota and Nakoma Newman in addition to the aforementioned players, advanced to the title game by defeating host Toledo 11-5 on Friday evening, then top-seeded Siletz 7-2 early Saturday morning and Waldport 5-4 in the afternoon.

Local swimmers continue improvement JIM FOSSUM The News Guard

Fifteen-year-old Dylan Mickelson and 9-year-old Rachel Scheuing were multiple winners and nine other Lincoln City Swim Club members claimed victories Tuesday, July 16, in a trophy meet at the Lincoln City Community Center. Mickelson, a member of the Taft High swim

team, won the 100-meter backstroke, the 100-meter freestyle and the 200-meter individual medley in the short-course pool, while Scheuing won the 10-andunder 50 back and 50 free and placed second in the 50 breast. All but two of Lincoln City’s 26 swimmers improved on their time in the third trophy meet of the summer, which featured squads from Corvallis,

who brought 44 swimmers, Dallas and Albany, who brought nine each. “It was a nice opportunity for all kids to race in a short format like a high school meet,” LCSC coach Lissa Parker said. Swimming competitively for the first time, 9-yearold Mateo Catibayan won the 50-meter backstroke for Lincoln City. Also winning races for LCSC were Justin Delfin, 14, 100 fly;

Natalie Gates, 7, 25 back; Evan Halferty, 7, 25 back; Joram Hoff, 12, 50 back; Hunter Lunstedt, 11, 50 breast; Angel Moreno, 9, 50 breast; Hailey Morris, 12; 50 back; and Eli Shott, 17, 100 breast. Parker credited the efforts of Sam Shott, 15, who also swam competitively for the first time, Hoff for his development in the backstroke; Ariel Larrabee, 7, who took off at least six

seconds in her two events; and Kole Kovachevich, 14, Delfin and Mickelson for their drops in time in the freestyle, fly and backstroke, respectively. Sam Cortes, 9; Addie Gates. 9; Charlotte Lunstedt, 8; Lydia Prins, 12; Shawna Harskjold, 16, Hunter Lunstedt, Maxim Larrabee, Natalie Gates, Halferty, Delfin, and Larrabee earned second-place finishes.

Fiona Eyman, 11; Sam Moreno, 13; Cristofer Ochoa, 9; Bryanna Pager, 10; Ashley Scheuing, 11; Charles Sims, 15; and Michael Young, 11, joined the aforementioned swimmers with reductions in their personal-best times. The LCSC returns to the pool at Corvallis on Friday, Aug. 2, and closes its four-meet, May-throughSeptember summer season Aug. 11 in Bend.

Right photo, from left, Aly Anderson, Darrien Russell, Joshua Morgan, Chance Haun, Kendal Gile, Luke Hall and Majalise Tolan were among a team of volunteers who conquered a job of seemingly insurmountable proportions as part of the “Love My Neighbor” labor project. “When I got here, It was kind of like, ‘Whoa, that’s a lot of bushes,” said Morgan, who attends Faith Baptist Church.

Love My Neighbor From page A1

without hesitation, he says. “It’s just one way we’re doing that this week.” That, and a whole lot more. At no charge, no less. “Love My Neighbor is the brainchild of Gleneden Beach Christian Church Pastor Carl Wohlwend, who, through happenstance, inexplicably teamed with Gelsinger two years ago to unveil a vision of caring and camaraderie that gloriously has grown into a weeklong work cleanup project that has touched the lives of nearly 70 area residents from Newport to Otis. “We’re providing free yard work for people and meeting physical needs, as well as just talking about their spiritual needs,” Gelsinger said. Twenty-five youth from Beaverton joined nearly twice that many from Gleneden Beach Christian, Faith Baptist, Pacific Baptist, Foursquare and Nazarene churches in Lincoln City last week to make life better for those in need. “The point of the project is to spend a week doing free yard work and other odd jobs for people in the name of Christ following the commands that He gave us,” Gelsinger said. Called “Love My Neighbor,” the union between Gleneden Beach and Beaverton Christian churches has brought together worshippers and community for a love fest of Christianity and show of brotherhood. Just two years ago, the inaugural project tended to barely 30

jobs with less than half the workers. “People are just interested in getting this idea of loving one another going, just doing kind things for one another and trying to get something kick-started in our community,” Wohlwend said. “We believe that if you’re willing to do something for somebody else, that person might be willing to do something for someone, too.” However, not even Wohlwend could have imagined the unabashed excitement his union with Gelsinger and several local churches would generate. It’s no longer just teens that participate. “I like to help people and lift them up a little bit, give them hope,” said volunteer Maria Krieg of Neotsu, an

elderly first-year participant who attends Faith Baptist. “Obey the Lord, because the Lord calls on us to love and serve one another.” Twelve members of Faith Baptist Youth Pastor Luke Hall’s group of high schoolage kids participated in the project for at least a day. Many assembled on North Bank Road in Otis to clean out a greenhouse they found had functioned quite well over the years. It was overrun with impenetrable ivy and nasty blackberry bushes that blanketed possessions its owner probably didn’t even remember existed or know about. “A lot of people kind of have a bad idea about today’s youth, and it’s just good to show that we care

about this community and we’d like to see things change,” said Taft High 7-12 student Joshua Morgan, who madly wielded a machete to hack away at the mess. A day later, the same group joined their Beaverton brotherhood at another job of intimidating proportions just down the road on Panther Creek. “It’s absolutely fantastic that they do this for people who can’t do it themselves,” property owner Maralyn Russell said. “It’s been a fantastic blessing for me to have them come out and do what they can in the amount of time they have. I

think it’s just amazing.” Still, some fail to find it completely fulfilling. “You know what the hardest thing about this is?” Beaverton Christian youth leader Helen Wolfe asked. “Not being able to come

back – again and again, day after day, to do a good job and really fix it up instead of just hitting it lightly. We’re making progress, we’re making a dent, but you want to do it right and hit it out of the ballpark.” “Love My Neighbor” was assisted in its efforts by local contributors such as North Lincoln Sanitary Service, which provided free dumping; the Nelscott Cafe, which donated burgers for a barbeque; Savory Cafe & Pizzeria in Newport, which pitched in pizza; and the Lincoln City Community Center, which made perhaps the most worthy – and appreciated – contribution of all – hot showers. Beaverton Christian’s Jay Villa, who has participated in all three “Love My Neighbor” ventures, summarized why project participants are learning that their neighbors are loving them back. “In the Bible, God talks about being called to love our neighbors and that being the greatest commandment, only behind loving God Himself,” he said. “So, this is just a simple, practical way of helping someone who might be a little bit older or might not be able to do this themselves. We contribute our time and our love and express to them the love God’s given us time and time again.”

Mixed Grill

A view from the saddle

By Everett Cutter

Out of the fridge and on the stove: Sweet Red Pepper Chile Soup Years ago, when wife, Sally, was learning her way around a kitchen and raising wee ones too, she sometimes became distracted. It’s been a family joke for years about her once finishing ironing and answering the telephone at the same time. After chatting, she found one garment left un-pressed, but, where was that iron? After some futile searching, she finally gave up and went to make the kids lunch. As she opened the refrigerator for milk, lo and behold, there stood her iron on the same rack. Forever after, when Sally cannot find something, we ask, no matter how preposterous, “Did you look in the ‘fridge?” Then, just last month, she couldn’t find a hardware purchase that she knew she’d brought home. She looked high and low, as I dared not ask the hoary, unappreciated question. Finally, in triumph she held up the brown bag — but still cannot explain how it got into the refrigerator meat compartment.

SWEET RED PEPPER CHILE SOUP (May be served hot or chilled)

Put all ingredients (except final garnish) into a large pan and heat to boiling. Reduce the heat and cook for about 20 minutes. Cool slightly and use either a blender wand or ladle batches into a blender or food processor. Puree mixture. Soup can be reheated and served immediately or can be served after chilling. Top the soup with a dollop of sour cream, crème fraiche, IMO or plain yogurt, and don’t forget to place a fresh green sprig of basil on top. Bright colored and festive for any season! Soup freezes well. Serves 4.

JEREMY C. RUARK The News Guard

Not everyone comes to the Oregon Coast just to feel the sand between their toes or to enjoy a bowl of clam chowder. Riding the beaches and dunes on horseback is an increasingly popular recreation for many visitors and residents alike. Dan Stuebgen, partner and barn manager with the Pacific City-based Green Acres Beach and Trail Rides, is the man many are calling to arrange the riding adventure. “We have 24 horses and offer

the mountain trail rides and rides along the beach at Pacific City, said Stuebgen. “We use Pacific City because there is a dedicated horse park that attracts people from all over who bring their horses there.” During the summer, the horse rides start about 10 a.m., with a new ride launched each hour. The last ride of the day usually starts at about 4 p.m. The guided horseback rides come in different categories depending on the rider’s skill. “We offer a ride over the dunes and to the ocean’s edge,” said Stuebgen. “To spice things up, we

Blend all the dry ingredients. Add water in small amounts and mix until a thick batter is reached. Dip vegetables into mixture and fry in hot oil about 3 minutes per side. Drain well and serve with spicy chutney. Our family likes mint chutney, tomato chutney and coconut chutneys, but there are many that can be made. Chop up the ingredients for your specific choice and add whole anise seed, chopped jalapeno, a little water, a little minced onion and salt. When making a chutney, do it to taste. It is okay to over- compensate on any of the ingredients because you are making something unique and delivering not necessarily a balanced flavor.

Cossu to perform at Cultural Center Scott Cossu will perform at 7 p.m. Friday, July 26, at the Lincoln City Cultural Center. Cossu is an internationally known, composer, pianist and recording artist. He was up front when New Age was just beginning over 30 years ago, and was one of the first Windham Hill Artists to join with founder Will Ackerman and Alex Degrassi, in their new label out of Palo Alto, Calif. Scott would affectionately call his music “Heavy Mental” or “Cosmic National Geographic,” even though he was one of the grandfathers of the New Age scene. He was labeled a “jazz luminary of the future,” by Billboard Magazine. Much of Cossu’s work exhibits departures from the New Age field and includes a melodic blend of jazz, classical and ethnic influences.

The play will be presented on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings through Aug. 31. The play is a tribute from Ken Ludwig to the great English farces of the 1930s and 1940s. “The Fox On the Fairway” takes audiences on a hilarious romp, which pulls the rug out from underneath the stuffy denizens of a private country club. Filled with mistaken identities, slamming doors, and over-thetop romantic shenanigans, it’s a furiously paced comedy

horse ride,” he said. “It is a real horseback ride.” Stuebgen said the attraction of riding is being on a horse and enjoying the Coast views in a relaxed atmosphere. “The horses are docile by nature,” he said. “The ride actually has a healing effect for a lot of people. These horse are very therapeutic.” Stuebgen said each horse is much more than just a work animal. “They are our pets,” he said. “We develop a bond with each of them. They are partners in the business and they work hard.” Each of the riding horses is affectionately named. Chrome, Reno, Charlie, Bella, Tiny and Fathom are a few of the favorite riding horses. Some of the horses used by Green Acres came from rescues, others from ranches across the region. Green Acres looks for a generic breed of Paint horses. Stuebgen said not every horse is cut out to be used for the beach and trail rides. “Many horses are just one-rider horses,” said Stuebgen. “So when we look for our riding horse, we look for behavioral problems that could challenge us. We go through a real process before we put customers on the horses.” Green Acres operates a 40-stall barn located in Lincoln City, where the riding horses are boarded. “They don’t get left in a pasture

So we want to provide a comfortable place for them.” The barn also offers public horse boarding and small pony rides for children. “The barn gives us an opportunity to provide work for youngsters who are boarding their horses there,” said Stuebgen. “But we also have volunteers who want to that come to the barn just to be around the smell of the horses.” The rides are offered seven days a week, weather permitting, and range from $75 for a one-hour ride to $150 for a two-hour ride.

Deep sand causes concern at beach entrance

Police and area residents continue to warn motorists about the dangers of getting stuck in the sand at the bottom of the 15th Street beach entrance hill. On June 7, while on a water rescue call to the beach just off the 15th Street entrance, North Lincoln Fire & Rescue District #1 water rescue crews had to maneuver their emergency vehicles past a vehicle stuck in the sand at the bottom of the hill.

water before the rescue team arrived. It appeared that the person was alright. Gretchen Wynne lives on 15th Street and is so concerned about vehicles becoming stuck in the sand; she placed a cardboard sign at the hill entrance that reads, “Caution Deep Sand.” JEREMY C.

Two small grass fires last week in the Lincoln City area are a reminder of an early fire season and the danger looming this summer along the Oregon Coast, according to fire officials. Both fires occurred June 5. The first fire charred about an acre of grass 500 feet from Highway 101 along Three Roads Road northeast of Lincoln City. The cause of the blaze is undetermined, as is the second blaze that

Even though Crestline Elementary School is hundreds of miles away in Vancouver, Wash., a Feb. 3 fire that

destroyed the school has promoted Taft Elementary School third-graders to lend a few helping hands. Taft student Kahliah Moroyoqua, 9, said the students took action when they learned about the Crestline School fire. “We felt bad that the school burnt down,” said Moroyoqua. “We wanted the kids at that school to feel better, so we got them books to read.” As a part of the Lincoln County

School District project SEAL (Students Engaged in Authentic Learning), Taft teachers selected a project that was of interest and brainstormed ideas for solutions to the problem. “As teachers, our task was to engage students in the project using innovative strategies,” Taft third-grade teacher Micky Willoughby said. “When Crestline

Mortician’s victims paid deeply for losses JIM FOSSUM The News Guard

In undoubtedly the most documented, publicized and controversial police case in Lincoln City history, corpses were abused and left unidentified when several unembalmed, decomposing bodies were eerily discovered in a local mortician’s chapel in the fall of 1984. But who were the real victims? Perhaps they were the friends and family of the bodies then-34-year-old Dale Patrick Omsberg was paid to cremate at Pacific View Memorial Chapel at 560 S.W. Fleet St., where The Eventuary now stands. Many cite severe financial woes as the reason behind Omsberg’s grisly crimes of nearly three decades ago, but the man who oversaw the case, retired Lincoln City

police chief Mike Holden, isn’t buying that. “Something,” he said, “was amiss with the man.” Omsberg’s death at age 63 last month from a self-inflicted gunshot wound in Myrtle Beach, S.C., following an alleged sexual assault seems to confirm suspicions that the man who served just 23 days of a 30-day sentence with time off for good behavior struggled with demons no one can possibly explain. Ironically, a psychiatric evaluation of Omsberg, which then-District Attorney Ulys Stapleton said factored into his negotiations with Omsberg attorney Stephen Lovejoy, indicated the defendant “would probably commit suicide if sentenced to the penitentiary.” Omsberg’s defense argued their client’s “negligent management” in accepting nominal fees for those in need failed to generate enough

SPECIAL REPORT income to overcome his debt at the mortuary. In a written statement read by Lovejoy to reporters after his client’s sentencing, Omsberg said, “How does one apologize for such a terrible thing that has happened,

At the time, the only state regulations on crematories were Department of Environmental Quality standards for air pollution. The Legislature has since required that bodies be diligently tracked through paperwork and a stainlesssteel tag. Other states followed suit, but efforts of the locally led “Missing in America” campaign brought about a measure of closure for the victims of the gut-wrenching tragedy that left their loved ones’ whereabouts unknown. The repercussions led to a demand to alter what was perceived as an indifferent bureaucracy and reshaped the justice system as it pertains to the funeral industry. Omsberg pleaded guilty to 60 misdemeanor charges of theft, attempted theft and abuse of a corpse and was

except to say that I am truly sorry. I didn’t want it to happen and make no excuses. I hope and pray that you will forgive me.” Many did, including Diane Bassett, whose husband’s body was found Oct. 19, 1984, under a sheet on a table in the mortuary’s garage. “I pray for him and that he’ll be able to put his life back together again and that his wife and two little boys can do the same,” she said following the sentencing. “But it is almost as though you have to live the death again. I think some of us will never get over it.” Bassett was a leading member among a group of people who wouldn’t let the case die like their relatives had. She successfully helped lead a movement to get the Oregon Legislature to pass more stringent rules on crematoria in its 1985 session.
