Hospital plans put on hold Officials decide against seeking tax to fund replacement in 2014

PATRICK ALEXANDER The News Guard

A figurative boxing match A new Lincoln City couple is finally getting to unpack their moving boxes, after what they describe as a “nightmare move” in which they were left without their belongings for a month due to a dispute about weight.

Larry and Judy Whittle say the delay is among a host of problems the couple had after contracting with Northern Van Lines to move their belongings from Sac City, Iowa, in mid July.

Up and running

The group charged with maintaining Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital has announced that it will not seek additional taxpayer support in 2014 to fund a replacement of the facility as it had originally hoped.

Instead, members of the North Lincoln Health District agreed to repair the current facility on an asneeded basis until economic conditions improve and the impacts of state and federal healthcare reform become clear.

At the Sept. 20 meeting of the District’s board of directors, vice-chair Esther

While plans for a new hospital have been delayed, a project to transform the former rehabilitation center building into a dormitory and conference facility has been completed.

The building, which became vacant when the Lincoln City Rehabilitation Center closed its doors in 2011, has re-opened as the Health Professionals Education Center in a project largely funded by the North Lincoln Hospital Foundation, which contributed $115,000.

In addition to 10 dorm rooms with shared shower and lounge facilities, the center has two conference areas, each with a capacity of 70 people.

Foundation director Connie Isaac said the Schwartz said the hospital has been experiencing “peaks and valleys” in both revenue and utilization but

facility, built in 1967, is such that some departments are blocked from expanding by the presence of a large boiler.

She said the look of any new facility might be influenced by the ways in which health care reforms change the role of the hospital in the community.

One such reform, the recent launch of Coordinated Care Organizations or CCOs, is aimed at improving the health of people covered by the Oregon Health Plan at the same time as driving down treatment costs.

“If we are keeping people healthy and well, they will not need to be admitted to the hospital,” Schwartz said, See HOSPITAL, Page A9

dorms are already providing accommodation for visiting medical students working in several hospital departments as well as for agency staff called in to cover shifts.

Board Chair Mick McLean said the dorms could also come in handy in the event that a visiting doctor gets stranded by bad weather.

McLean said the District is currently looking at its options for the remainder of the building space.

that both are on a downward trend.

“The trend line is not in the direction where we

would want to go to the voters,” Schwartz said.

incoln City’s annual celebration of military service saw an ocean of red, white and blue serve as a backdrop for ceremonies giving thanks to those who have served and continue to serve in the armed forces.

More than 200 veterans received a special Veteran’s Service Medal at Chinook Winds Casino Resort’s Celebration of Honor on Sunday, Sept. 23. Meanwhile, the casino served free buffet meals to almost 300 veterans and active-duty military.

A plan aimed at transforming Lincoln City into a bike- and pedestrianfriendly town has received its first airing in front of City officials, with discussion focusing on what improvements are feasible and how to foot the bill for the proposed work.

The draft Lincoln City Walking and Biking plan was created by staff and consultants, with the help of a public advisory committee (PAC), in a series of public meetings starting in August 2011.

It catalogues the problems that city streets and Highway 101 create for cyclists and pedestrians and recommends solutions including sidewalks, bike lanes, shared paths and speed bumps.

But, in a Sept. 18 preview of the plan to members of the planning commission and city council, planners warned that the City would need to introduce new taxes or fees to see the plan become a reality.

“What we have now is barely enough to maintain the street system that we have,” Senior Planner Debra Martzahn said.

Meanwhile, David Helton of ODOT said his agency does not have much funding for adding to its highways and is looking instead to extract as much efficiency as it can from the current system.

Council decides: ‘if it ain’t broke...’

PATRICK ALEXANDER The News Guard

Lincoln City leaders have opted to continue their relationship with the artists at the Jennifer L. Sears Glass Art Studio rather than inviting other firms to bid to run the attraction.

At its Sept. 24 meeting, Lincoln City Council also decided to allow the artists to sell glass from the Cityowned studio premises, something that is prohibited under1the9/24/12 current 1:23 L10491 Power Ford 6x2 092612:Layout contract.

Mayor Dick Anderson even indicated that he would support giving the artists a break on the rent for the retail space if they could develop a low-cost glass-blowing experience for kids.

Sandy Pfaff, executive director of the City’s Visitor & Convention Bureau, said the studio’s future had been ‘dangling” since the spring when Anderson suggested exploring the idea of putting the expiring contract out to bid rather than simply rePM Page 1 newing it with Lincoln City

While the group was responsible for paying utility bills of between $15,000 and $18,000 a month, the fact that they initially paid no rent moved the City to prohibit glass sales from the See STUDIO, Page A3

Labrador survives devil of a dive JIM FOSSUM The News Guard

A normal game of fetch with a 12-year-old yellow Labrador named Ben nearly turned to tragedy recently for a Neotsu resident and her family when the dog stopped breathing during a near-drowning incident in Devils Lake. “He’s one of my kids,� owner Patty Henvy said. “I was there when he was born, It was the worst experience of my life.�

Help from neighbors, her own mouth-to-snout resuscitation and chest compressions from her husband, Joe, and his brother, Tony, got Ben breathing after he got stuck under a dock. The

Honor

Sunny skies provided perfect conditions for the Run for Honor, a 5-kilometer beach run in which veterans and active-duty military raced for free. Tony Peralta finished first in the men’s category, with Adrienne Rich leading the women.

The race benefitted the Taft High 7-12 cross-country team, drama club and North Lincoln Fire & Rescue District #1 volunteers.

As part of Chinook Winds’ efforts to expand the Celebration of Honor throughout the community, this year’s event also included a tribute to those who served out of uniform to keep the home fires burning during World War II. Several longtime — even lifetime — Lincoln City residents gathered at the North Lincoln County Historical Museum on Saturday, Sept. 22, to exchange tales of their wartime experiences and reminisce about home front life on the Coast in the early 1940s. “The home front was as much engaged as those out in the field in supporting them,� moderator Mick McLean told an audience of nearly 50. “What’s that they say, ‘It takes 25 guys behind the line to support the one out there with the loaded rifle.’ It took a lot of support to care for the ones out there on the front line.�

85-pound dog was then transported up a big hill from the shore in a tarp to a car and rushed to Lincoln City Animal Clinic, a short drive away. “The dog was in pretty tough shape when he came in. He was in pretty fair shock,� veterinarian John Emerson said. “Thankfully, quick action by the owners got him out of there, but he had significant fluid in his lungs that he inhaled from the lake.�

Henvy said Ben got caught trying to retrieve a ball from under a floating dock off the shore of the family’s property on N.E. Johns Loop. “One of the boys [her nephews] mentioned he’d been under there too long,

Eighty-five-year-old Lonnie Headrick and 82-year-old Joann Kangiser Schneider, among others, joined McLean in sharing wartime stories with a dwindling number of those who are still able to tell about it.

McLean showed posters, postcards, newspaper clippings, editorials and cartoons that gave a picture of what life was like following the Japanese invasion of Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941. “Folks down here seemed to sense that war was coming,� McLean said. “They didn’t know who with or what was going to happen, but things started to happen.

The clouds were gathering and the drum beat was getting louder.�

A picture of a group in front of the school in Rose Lodge taken two days before the attack showed Schneider (then named Kangiser) with her brother and her future husband and his sister. The school was soon closed down and turned into an army barracks, she said. “I was still in grade school at Rose Lodge, seventh grade, and I went down to the service station on a Sunday and they said, ‘Joann, did you know that the Japs bombed Pearl Harbor’ I didn’t know, but I couldn’t get home fast enough.�

Saying she has trouble talking about it to this day, Schneider had four brothers who would enlist.

so I came running down and was obviously very concerned,� said Henvy, a property manager who resides in Salem. “I could tell right away the difference between him breathing or not breathing. He was not breathing He had drowned.�

Or so she thought.

Emerson said he had next to no experience administering medical attention to a waterlogged dog. “Drowning is a pretty rare thing in dogs,� he said. “His case was kind of a freak accident.�

After taking X-rays, shaving his front legs for IVs and placing him in an oxygen cage, Emerson got further response from the dog.

“We just let his body kind of take care of the fluid because there’s nothing you can actually give them to get the fluid out,� he said.

Emerson placed the dog on antibiotics to prevent aspiration pneumonia from settling in from consumption of unsterile lake water.

Despite some early problems with the side of his mouth that prompted Henvy to hand feed him some mushy food, a vet in Salem recently issued Ben a clean bill of health. “He’s a really lucky dog,�

Emerson said. “He’s lucky he didn’t die from drowning to begin with, and he’s lucky he didn’t die from aspiration pneumonia.�

Swimming again a little more than a week later,

Oregon Department of Veterans’ Affairs Director Jim Willis was among the speakers at the rededication of the Veterans’ Memorial outside Chinook Winds Casino Resort. “They went down and signed up for the Navy and we had to take them to the train the next night,� she said. “Some people didn’t have a problem with it, but for us it was a very big thing.�

Headrick said he was too young to be afraid, “I didn’t even know what was going on,� he said.

Later, when lectured in school not to search for extinguished fire balloons launched by the Japanese, Headrick said, “We were warned every day not to go looking for them, and, certainly not to touch them,

so the minute the school bell rang, we went out looking for them.�

Headrick had more mischievousness in him, such as hiking up the Salmon River from Roads End to grab cases of beer dropped by blimps back to the men.

Then, there were the victory gardens people remembered as kids from the First World War and the Great Depression. Some people dug up their lawns to plant vegetables, fruit and herbs. “I didn’t call it a victory garden,� Headrick said. “I called it a pain in the you-

know-what.�

Schneider said she remembered soldiers occupying the old high school building and calling it home for a spell. “My understanding is the reason for it was they were fixing all the bridges in the area so that they could be blown up immediately in case the Japanese did invade us,� she said.

Few traveled to Lincoln City because you couldn’t get gas, and ration stamps allowed for no more than two gallons a week. “They said if you’re going to take a suction hose and steal gas, please just steal it from just one truck so we don’t have to fill all of them up again,� Headrick said.

Food, particularly meat, also was rationed, though Headrick’s family survived largely on a surplus of flounder that then could be found aplenty buried in the sand.

Tires were rationed, too, 90-year-old Peggy Parent Lutz said. “We were putting patches on top of patches in order to keep them going,� she said.

“The worse thing was the military got all the rubber and there went our girdles.�

Women were reminded of wearing dresses made from flour sacks and of filling orders for socks for foot soldiers.

Entertainment was provided at two dance halls — one in Oceanlake and the other in Gleneden Beach.

Going to church, dancing and music were the primary forms of entertainment.

The movies — comic film characters Ma and Pa Kettle were most popular — were filled with war propaganda meant to boost morale.

To get around, drivers had to paint their headlights black with a one-inch slit so as not to expose the area to the Japanese. Headrick said the Taft High football team was sent money for gas to John Day for a state playoff game because the players and their parents didn’t want to travel to the at-risk Coast. “Fact is, this really was a war zone down here on the Coast,� McLean said.

City considering chipping in on Refuge plans Lincoln City gravel streets throughout town available seeks volunteers PATRICK ALEXANDER The News Guard

Lincoln City leaders are to look at whether the City should help homeowners with the cost of paving gravel streets, with officials saying the move could save money by reducing longterm maintenance costs.

Vacation rental operator Gene Scrutton raised the issue at the Sept. 10 meeting of Lincoln City Council, asking whether the City could set aside funds to remedy what he described as “third-world streets” in several parts of town.

Scrutton said gravel streets do not fit with the ocean views such as that enjoyed by one of his neighbors downhill from the Esther Lee hotel.

“He paid a million dollars for the house, I think his property taxes are like $12,000 a year or something like that,” Scrutton said, “and he’s on a gravel road.”

“In the winter time its potholes and mud,” Scrutton added. “In the summer time it’s gravel and cars spinning out trying to get out of their driveway.”

Mayor Dick Anderson reminded Scrutton that property owners are free to a form local improvement district or LID to share the cost of making improvements to their neighborhood.

But City Manager David Hawker said he would like councilors to look at the idea of chipping in some funds to act as an incentive, saying an existing resolution empowers the city to pay up to 30 percent of the cost.

Hawker said he believes that, over the long term, the City spends more money maintaining gravel roads than it would cost to pave them.

But, he said, for the City to foot the entire paving bill would not be fair to other property owners, who paid

the full cost of paving their streets, either when their subdivision was developed or when they bought the property.

“In all fairness,” Hawker said, “even if we had a boatload of money, which we don’t, it wouldn’t be fair to have some people enjoy a taxpayer benefit while other people had to pay personally.”

Hawker said the City could try offering to foot between a quarter and third of the bill on a firstcome-first-served basis for neighborhoods thinking about forming LIDs. He said that while most people would prefer a paved street to a gravel one, any proposed projects would have to be evaluated from a safety perspective.

“It does bring up pedestrian safety without question,” he said, “because it does increase speed.”

Councilors agreed to study the issue this winter.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s (USFWS) Draft Comprehensive Conservation Plans and Environmental Assessments for Bandon Marsh, Nestucca Bay and Siletz Bay National Wildlife Refuges are now available for public review and comments.

Between now and October 22, interested citizens, agencies and organizations can review and comment on the draft plans, which include an analysis of each refuge’s management alternatives.

The USFWS will then analyze and address the comments, finalize the plans and publish them in the fall of 2012.

The final plans will guide the refuges’ management for 15 years with actions being implemented as funding becomes available.

The draft plans are available with the online version of this story at www.thenewsguard.com.

State seeks guidance on Senior center holds long-term care services open logo contest Newport is among the locations chosen for a series of meetings in which state officials will seek input and direction on the future of long-term care services.

“We are inviting the public to be a part of the discussion for Long Term Care 3.0, an initiative to increase the quality and sustainability of the long term care system, said Mike McCormick, deputy director of

the Department of Human Services’ Aging and People with Disabilities division.

“The goal of the redesigned long term care system is to deliver the right services at the right time at the right place. “ The meeting is scheduled for 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 1, at the Newport Senior Activity Center, 20 S.E. 2nd Street.

premises in order to protect other local glassblowers from unfair competition.

In 2007, the group started paying $950 a month in rent, a sum Pfaff said is about half the market value for the space.

Kelly Howard, one of the original Lincoln City Glass Center artists, said the group developed the ‘blow your own float’ concept in response to the prohibition on glass sales.

“Now,” she said, “if you look around the country, you will see studios that have modeled their studios after ours.”

Pfaff said the group should not be required to pay full market value because they are subject to conditions that regular businesses are not. Under the terms of the contract with the City, the studio must be open seven days a week in summer and five days a week in winter.

“They have brought something like $7 to $8 million into the community since the doors opened,” Pfaff said. “For $12,000 a year, you are getting a pretty good deal.”

When asked to weigh in on the best course for the studio, members of the City’s Visitor and Convention Committee recommended sticking with Lincoln City Glass Center at the current rent and allowing the artists to develop a small

Currently, anyone wanting to buy glass has to go across Highway 101 to the group’s Volta gallery, something Pfaff said visitors are reluctant to do in bad weather.

The VCC recommended giving the group a year rentfree to develop the space, after which time the City would charge then market rent for the retail part of their operation.

Councilors also heard that switching operators would require extensive down time to remove the large pieces of equipment owned by Lincoln City Glass Center.

Howard said the group has gradually replaced Cityowned furnaces and glory holes over the years.

“They disintegrate after being at 2,000 degrees day after day,” she said.

“The bottom line is that we tear it apart,” Pfaff said, “and it will be down for months.”

Councilor Roger Sprague said he felt such a move would be very disruptive, adding that he views the rent-paying artists as a tenant.

“If a tenant wants to continue, as far as I’m concerned we should let them, he said, adding: “Part of being in business is selling your wares.”

Only Councilor Henry Quandt voiced reservations, saying the right to sell glass from the premises was not in the original request for proposals, something he said could lead to a challenge from an aggrieved glassblower claiming they missed out on the chance to bid.

But Sprague said the City’s relationship with Lin-

Friends of Regatta Stage is part of the Ford Institute Leadership Program North Lincoln County.

coln City Glass Center has moved beyond the initial request for proposals, which he described as “moot.”

Anderson said he was keen to discuss the issue in public to dispel any concerns about the City offering a “public subsidy.”

“I can quickly say I’m confident the City is getting services,” he said. “We love it. It’s been great for all of us.”

Anderson also floated the idea of giving the group a break on its eventual rent for the retail space in return for developing a kids’ glassblowing experience for less than the standard $65. “$65 seems prohibitive when you have a gaggle of kids with a family,” he said.

“I’d be willing to give up on your rent some if I knew I was getting something back for the [kids].”

Pfaff said she and Howard would bring a proposal back to Council along with a draft for a renewed contract.

Charlie and Joy Andersen are proud to announce the engagement of their daughter Cassie York to Eric Mays.

Cassie and Eric are both from Lincoln City. Cassie is a 2010 graduate of Taft High. Eric is the son of Kelly and Robin Mays and is a 2011 graduate of Taft High. Their engagement was announced at Dune Fest. The date of the wedding has not yet been set.

Sheriff’s Tips

By Sheriff Dennis Dotson

Many Americans own firearms and for a variety of reasons. Some people feel more secure, others enjoy the sport of target practice and competition, there are many collectors, and others enjoy hunting.

Your Sheriff’s Office wants to offer some information to firearm owners, much of which is already familiar. Our hope is that the incidence of accidental discharges will be eliminated.

If You Keep a Firearm: • Understand the operation of any firearm before attempting to use it.

• Never point your firearm at anyone or anything you do not intend to shoot.

• Treat every firearm as if it was loaded.

• Do not allow your firearm to be handled by anyone who does not know the rules of firearm safety, or who does not understand how it should be safely operated.

• Store your unloaded firearm separate from your ammunition. Always keep both in places that are inaccessible to children and other individuals who are not permitted to use it.

• Never use alcoholic beverages or other drugs before or during shooting.

Instruct your children, if

they find a firearm: • Do not touch the firearm and leave the area immediately.

• Tell an adult that they trust where the firearm can be found.

Ammunition: • Firearms are designed for ammunition of a specific type and caliber. Do not alter the barrel, slide, or chamber of a firearm.

Consult with a certified Gunsmith for any firearm maintenance or repair.

• Never use a cartridge not specifically designed for use in your firearm.

Excessive pressure can damage or even blow up a firearm.

• Make sure your barrel is clear and free of obstruction. If you see an obstruction, have it serviced.

Never fire a firearm with an obstructed barrel.

Transportation/storage: • Store unloaded firearms separately and in places inaccessible to children.

• Never leave a gun in your vehicle. Guns are often stolen from cars.

Protect your children: • Tell your children to stay away from firearms when they are in the homes of their friends.

• Speak with the parents of your children’s friends to determine whether or not they have a firearm in the home. If they do, urge them to empty it out and lock it up!

A Moment in History

Frank Hallock built the Nelscott Cash Store in the spring of 1927. The store was the heart of the town and included a general store, the first offices of the Nelscott Land Company, a bus depot, a restaurant, a beauty parlor, and by 1929, the post office. During rush hour and on busy Saturdays, the store needed six clerks. Anna Cushing operated the restaurant, famous for its home cooking and generous portions.

Guest Commentary

One VRD owner’s complaint Judy and John Piper The Tiffany House, LLC.

In January 2003, my brother-in-law, his wife, my wife and I met in Lincoln City to decide on a vacation rental to purchase. We were all in our mid 50s with an income from a family trust. We looked at every beachfront property for sale in Lincoln City that weekend.

We chose a property, 4425 S.W. Beach Avenue, because it was constructed for a vacation rental. Vinyl siding, metal roofing, rough cedar interior walls, no interior or exterior paint to redo every year, and a history of family rentals. My brotherin-law had rented this home in the early 1980s as a vacation rental. It was built by three real estate salesmen from Salem as a vacation rental in 1976.

The home north of us was a vacation rental and still is. The home south of us was a vacation rental

and still is. Now, the VRD consensus group is proposing that this area should be off limits to future vacation rentals and that ours should expire when the property next changes hands.

Our home has a 36-year history as a vacation rental.

I would venture to guess that our 36-year history is more longevity than most of the people complaining about this issue.

We don’t complain about our neighbors parking in the street. We don’t complain about the garbage dumpster at the apartments across the street. We don’t complain when our neighbors are working on their vehicles at 11 p.m. We don’t complain about the salal and blackberries taking over landscapes. We don’t care what plants our neighbors plant.

We should have cared when the home south of us went up an additional two stories and the additional shade all but killed our 40–foot shore pine. We

don’t complain when tourists park in our lot to use the stairs to the beach. We hire a reputable management company to manage our home. We manage our home to be an asset to the community.

Now it is time to complain. In August, one of our clients was confronted by a man who had taken pictures of two bags of garbage that previous renters had left outside of the garbage can. He had filed a complaint with the City. The City had contacted our management company and the bags were removed.

The man was on the property, yelling and screaming, asking what our new client was going to do with his garbage, which was due to be picked up the next morning.

We don’t care how this gentleman acts towards us as owners, our management company, the City or the police department — but for him to come onto our

property and act so inappropriately towards our clients crosses a line. If he has a problem, he has a proper recourse outlined in the present rules.

We talked with the City police department and were advised that we couldn’t act against this person until we had put him on legal notice.

While we were formulating our response, my brother-in-law had a confrontation with this gentleman’s wife. On a sunny afternoon, my brother-in-law was on our back deck listening to the radio. He noticed this gentleman’s wife standing in the street positioned so she could see the people on the deck. After 15 minutes, he went outside and talked with her. Nothing came of this because he introduced himself as an owner.

She knew this was a vacation rental and she was intentionally interfering with normal beachfront activities. If these people come onto our property again,

we will use the only remedy available to us through the local police department. As VRD owners, we all need to act on these inappropriate and unwarranted actions.

The real problem that vacation rental owners face is the vicious attacks that a few people seem to think they are compelled to do. They need to be held to the same standards that you and I are held to. They have to call the police or the City. The City or the police call the representative on the license to fix the problem. If the problem isn’t fixed file a complaint.

If these people confront the renters, have them fined or arrested. This needs to be addressed. At this time, Lincoln City has a group of vigilantes that are using their brand of justice to impose their will on others. It crosses the line, when that justice is imposed on innocent visitors that are the lifeblood of Lincoln City.

Voices of Lincoln County Obama is food stamp president

Obama has learned well from George Soros on how to manipulate the American System of Government, to skirt around our Constitution & Congress, in order to waste $6Trillion of Taxpayer money on Boondoggles & failed Stimulus.

Obama makes it look like he isn’t doing anything but playing golf all the time, (105 outings in three and a half years) but he has sneakily administered hundreds of stifling Regulations on our “Small Business Job Creators” (bankrupted our Coal Industry) and initiated 134 Executive Orders, so far, to skirt around Congress & Constitutional Law. He has 4,000 new Regulations waiting to be implemented if he wins re-election.

Foreigners and Traitors are now using our own freedoms & rights against us in our open & free society to make us into another 3rd World Country, instead of an Exceptional Country!

What Obama has created is a Welfare State that now has 100 Million (almost a third of our population) getting some form of Welfare from the Federal Government. There are now nearly 80 different, over lapping, Welfare Programs. The most popular being Food Stamps & Medicade. Food Stamp recipients alone jumped from 17 Million in 2000 to

45 Million in 2011. These recipients do not include those who only get Social Security & Medicare.

Samaritan brings breast biopsies to Lincoln City Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital (SNLH), through its affiliation with Corvallis Radiology, is now offering ultrasound guided breast biopsies in Lincoln City.

“Finding a lump in your breast is a cause for anxiety,” hospital spokeswoman Liz Bardon said. “Traveling to the valley for a diagnosis increased the anxiety for many women until now.”

Results from the minimally invasive needle biopsy are available within a few days and about two-thirds of all breast lumps are not cancerous. SNLH is the only facility in Lincoln County offering ultrasound guided breast biopsies.

“Our goal in this procedure is to find the shortest path to the mass and leave no trace,” said Corvallis Radiology Medical Director Karen MacEwan, MD. “These biopsies have a very low complication rate and once the puncture heals, there is no indication that a procedure has been done.”

Often breast lumps are discovered through selfexamination or a doctor’s physical exam and then confirmed with a mammogram.

Others are found through a screening mammogram but imaging alone can’t diagnose cancer. A pathologist must be able to examine samples of mass to make a diagnosis.

An ultrasound guided breast biopsy involves inserting a needle into the breast to obtain samples of the mass. A radiologist performs the biopsy accompanied by a diagnostic medical sonographer who monitors

The SCREEN program is holding a free drop-in breast health event at Driftwood Public Library on Saturday, Oct. 13 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

SCREEN volunteers will provide the most current information about breast and cervical cancer screenings, cutting through all of the clutter and answering questions such as: · How often do I need a mammogram? I heard this changed. · I can’t afford screenings. Is there anyone who can help? · Self-breast exams: am I still supposed to do them? · What women’s health resources are available in my community?

the ultrasound machine and assists with the imaging. The biopsy samples are sent to a pathologist who determines whether the lump is cancerous or not. If the lump is cancerous, the pathologist can also conduct all the necessary genetic and hormonal testing on the biopsy samples to help determine the patient’s course of treatment.

Mammography at SNLH is accredited by the American College of Radiology.

Oksenholt plans Lincoln City clinics Local physician Dr. Robert Oksenholt has announced that he is looking at opening two separate clinic facilities in Lincoln City following his separation from Samaritan Health Services in August Oksenholt said he is looking at setting up clinics in the former Charter office at the junction of Highway 101 and N.E. 14th Street and also in a portion of the Western Title building at 3469 N.W. Highway 101.

In addition to medical

services, Oksenholt said he hopes to offer classes such as yoga and Mediterranean cooking to help Dr. Robert patients stay healthy.

Oksenholt Western Title owner George Slape confirmed that his firm is planning to rent roughly half of its 4,000-square-foot

Lincoln City building to Oksenholt.

“We think it’s a good fit,” he said, “and that our building works well for both businesses.”

Slape said the move will still leave Western title with room to expand as the property market improves.

Oksenholt said he is currently working on the design for the clinics, with details about opening dates to follow.

Stan graduated from Glendale High School in 1940, where he had been a star football player. He received a football Stanley scholarship McDonald from the University of Arizona. He soon joined the Coast Guard, but was only in for a short time, as the government released him to go back to farming. A short while later, he joined the Army Air Force, where he was a gunner/instructor on B-29 Bombers. Their squadron was halfway to Japan when the pilot announced that the war was over, and that they were going home!

They made a U-turn in the middle of the Pacific and headed back to the states!

Deputies warn of debt collector scam Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office has warned that a scam in which bogus callers pose as debt collectors has been on the increase in Lincoln County.

Deputies say the calls sound legitimate, with the caller claiming to be from a from a credit card company but say that, when challenged, the scammers have become threatening and vulgar.

“If you get these calls make the caller aware you know they are scammers and discontinue the call,”

Sgt. Mark Meister said.

“Some of the numbers have been captured on caller ID and come back as disconnected.”

The Better Business Bureau has provided some guidelines when and if you should receive a suspicious phone call from a supposed debt collector: *Ask the debt collector to provide official documentation in writing which substantiates the debt *Do not provide or confirm any bank ac-

count, credit card or other personal information over the phone until you have confirmed the legitimacy of the call. *Review recent copies of your credit reports to ensure that the alleged debt is not affecting your credit.

Meister also recommended reporting and checking for reported scams at the Oregon Scam Alert Network, which can be found at www.doj.state. or.us/consumer/pages/ scam_alert.aspx.

born Robert Stanley and in 1954 they had their daughter Janet Elizabeth.

While living in the “valley”, Stan did farming and was the owner/operator of the first ski shop in Arizona.

In 1963 the family moved up to the White Mountains, where he did many things – was a pilot, designed a ski run, was a ski instructor, managed a country club, worked at SW Industries, was a general contractor, was the owner/operator of Tal-Wi-Wi Lodge and owned a ranch. He was always very active and during his life, he enjoyed skiing, horseback riding and hunting. Stan was also an avid reader, which in later years, he did many hours a day.

In the late ‘70s, Stan & Gwen moved back down to Phoenix and Stan went to work for the State of Arizona and later the City of Phoenix. He started the Mounted Ranger program, where the city park rangers rode horseback through the desert/ mountain parks.

Stan retired from the City of Phoenix in the early ‘90s, and in 1992, Stan and Gwen moved to Newport, Oregon, in order to be near their daughter and grandchildren. Stan just couldn’t keep from working, so he got a job at Fred Meyer, where he worked for several more years, before his final retirement.

In 2000, just a few months short of 50 years, Stan’s long-time wife Gwen passed away. Stan had been going to exercise class for several years by then, which is where he met Grace Strom, whom he married in 2002. They lived in Depoe Bay until 2008, when they moved into Newport. Since Stan had been on dialysis for several years, he and

Gracie played a major role in getting the dialysis clinic built in Newport. They had several wonderful years together.

He is survived by his wife, Grace Strom; his siblings Roberta Kosier, Lowell (Elberta) McDonald, Norma Davis and Carolyn (Bob) Vossellor; sons Bruce (Mary) Swift and Bobby (Ya) McDonald; and daughter, Janet (Bob) Scanlon; grandchildren Marilyn McDonald, Paul McDonald, Jennifer (Kenney) Cave, Katrina (Drew) Marmo, Matt Adams, Carie (Shane) Cyphers, Christie (Troy) Painter and Jason Adams; step-children Nancee (Jim) Bruce, Larry (partner Martha) Strom, Sal (partner Lynn) Strom and grandchildren Marcus Olmstead, Tessa Zosta, Remington Bruce and Austin Ouderkirk; and many greatgrandchildren, nieces and nephews.

Services will be held at Atonement Lutheran Church (2315 N Coast Hwy, Newport) at 1 p.m. on Sept. 28, 2012, followed by a Celebration of Life at the Yaquina Bay Yacht Club (750 SE Bay Blvd., Newport).

KYAQ Radio to Host Forums KYAQ community radio will host two forums spotlighting the three county-wide measures on the November ballot.

Representatives of groups supporting the measures have been invited to present information about the proposals and answer audience questions.

The forums will take place Wednesday, October 10, at Central Lincoln PUD in Newport, beginning at 7 p.m.; and on Thursday, October 11, at the Floweree Community Center (old Mary Harrison School building) in Toledo, also at 7 p.m.

Measure 21-144 proposes a five-year property tax levy at a rate of 35 cents per assessed valuation to support children’s programs and services.

The measure would raise approximately $2.5 million a year for early childhood education and childcare; child abuse prevention and intervention; and outside-of-school child development. Representatives of the Children’s Trust of Lincoln County will be presenters.

A second tax measure, 21-147, would establish an animal services district to fund operation of the county Animal Shelter and pay for the three Animal Services officers with the Sheriff’s Office. If approved by voters, the remaining two years of the 11 cents per thousand levy approved in 2009 would be cancelled and replaced by the permanent tax rate.

Speakers from the Board of County Commissioners and Central Coast Humane Society will share this presentation.

County voters are also being asked whether or not the County Commissioners should send messages on their behalf to Congress and the Oregon Legislature to support a constitutional amendment overturning the 2010 Supreme Court ruling in the Citizens United Case that invalidated limits on corporate and union spending in political campaigns.

A representative of Occupy Newport will present on Measure 21-146.

The forums will be moderated by Alan Searle, volunteer project manager.

Couple settles in after messy move JIM FOSSUM The News Guard

A new Lincoln City couple is finally getting to unpack their moving boxes, after what they describe as a “nightmare move” in which they were left without their belongings for a month due to a dispute about weight.

Larry and Judy Whittle say the delay is among a host of problems the couple had after contracting with Northern Van Lines to move their belongings from Sac City, Iowa, in mid July.

“They said our stuff would beat us here,” Judy said. “We were left sitting out here camping in our house.”

The couple said they arrived in Lincoln City to find that Northern Van Lines had taken their belongings to a dock in Kansas City — Missouri or Kansas, the Whittles weren’t quite sure. They had been told it would be shipped directly to Eugene. They said they asked but were not told precisely where in Kansas City their belongings were and why they were there.

“They were very evasive on almost all of the questions we asked,” Judy said.

One of the many disputes regarded the weight of the cargo, which Larry said he had warned would exceed the 10,000 pounds the company initially estimated due to heavy materials from his woodworking shop. He said the company started the initial estimate at 10,000 pounds and added charges such as “extra bulky” items as the weight mounted, finally established at more than 25,000 pounds once the shop materials were included. Cost of the move, which wasn’t the issue, Larry said, amounted to nearly $16,000.

As the weeks rolled by,

the Whittles grew frustrated with the lack of communication from Northern Van Lines about the location of their belongings and retained an attorney in the company’s home state of Tennessee at a cost of $1,500.

“Somewhere down the line, someone was going to have to get a handle on this damn thing,” Larry said, “because this was getting outrageous.”

The lawyer, Yousef Hamadeh of Chattanooga, Tenn., was able to persuade the company to shift the site for re-weighing the cargo from Portland to its original point in Brooks — a town whose I-5 location suited the Whittles better. The Whittles said Hamadeh was also able to change the van line’s insistence on receiving payment for the reweigh in cash.

“Long story short, in my dealings with these individuals,” Hamadeh said, “the information requested was not always clear and we could never really get a straight answer as to where their belongings were.”

Larry said the delay in delivery was the final straw in a farcical move that began with the company failing to show up on the day promised to load, then arriving in a small Penske truck the following morning and working well into the following day.

He said the loading process started with the workers denting a tool chest by letting it roll out the back of the truck, then registering the property as “dented” on the inventory form.

Larry, a former insurance agent who has moved 22 times, said he had already prepared much of his property for the move by placing it on slats. But after a second truck partly filled with another customer’s property

On Aug. 29, the Better Business Bureau (BBB) revoked Northern Van Lines’ accreditation, giving it an “F” ranking and advising consumers to avoid the company “because of its failure to meet contractual obligations.”

Guard, a supervisor at Northern Van Lines was asked to address the Whittles’ claims: “We were inside of the contract and everything like that,” said a person who identified himself as John, the company’s sales supervi-

sor, but refused to divulge his last name. “I mean, really, it’s really irrelevant. You can report whatever you want. It really doesn’t matter.”

John said the Whittles had additional weight and that estimates are “upfront and nonbinding estimates.

I can assure you everything was done legally.”

Asked why he wouldn’t reveal his full name if everything was legal, John said: “As of right now, we’re not going to discuss it, OK? There’s nothing to discuss.”

When asked why the Whittles were not told about the carrier, Moving Connections Inc., which their credit card was charged to, John hung up the phone. Further calls to the company were not returned.

Meanwhile, Whittles are just happy to call Lincoln City home. They say they’re troubled by the thought of the next family that hires the company that might not have the resources for a legal battle.

“It’s a fact that they need to be responsible people,” Judy said. “You need them to be trustable people when

Slimming down 101

The plan recommends the City give further consideration to the idea of a “road diet” for Highway 101, a move that would reduce the highway to three lanes in certain areas to create room for sidewalks or bike lanes.

Lyman said the PAC was supportive of the idea but consultants were unable to determine whether it would work for Lincoln City.

The plan recommends including the idea in the City’s upcoming revision of its Transportation System Plan.

Sites identified as potential diet locations include Oceanlake, Delake and Taft. The plan also recommends looking at the idea of adding a lane to the 2-mile stretch of highway from Wecoma to Neotsu.

The draft plan identifies three potential sources of additional local revenue: a property tax, a fuel tax and a road user maintenance fee.

Kate Lyman of consulting firm CH2M Hill said the PAC supported the idea of a local option property tax up to 10 cents per thousand dollars of assessed value, something she said would distribute the costs equally between residents and absentee owners.

Lyman said a local option tax would ultimately require approval by the voters but asked whether local officials would be supportive of putting the issue on the ballot.

While Councilor Henry Quandt said he does not feel he could support such a tax, Mayor Dick Anderson said he would like to see all the funding sources stay in the plan, saying they are “all viable, potentially, at some point.”

“Without new funding, we won’t be able to build much,” Lyman said.

Planning Commissioner Michelle Shannon had concerns about the idea of a road user maintenance fee, which the consultants suggested could be set at

$5 per household and $250 per business.

“As a small business owner, we carry a pretty big burden already,” Shannon said.

Planning Commissioner Patrick Evans said gauging the level of support for the plan is an important part of deciding what funding sources might be feasible.

Lyman said that while the plan contains information about how many people currently walk and bike, it is impossible to predict how many people would use any new facilities.

Bob Hunt, a member of the PAC, urged officials not to make their decisions based on the number of walkers and bikers they see traveling the highway under the current conditions.

Board vacancy

The North Lincoln Health District is still seeking a member to fill a vacancy on its board of directors.

Applicants must be registered voters in the North Lincoln Health District, which includes the area from Lincoln Beach to the Tillamook County line. Anyone interested in applying should submit a brief cover letter along with resume.

The board will select someone to serve until the next special district election. At that time, the appointed member may seek election or step down.

Applications may be mailed to North Lincoln Health District, Attn: Sally Lampert, board administrative assistant, PO Box 767, Lincoln City, OR 97367 or faxed to 541-557-6207. For additional information, call Lampert at 541-996-7330. adding that a new facility might need fewer inpatient beds, a larger emergency department and more focus on outpatient procedures.

Board Chair Mick McLean agreed.

“If you are following this health reform thing, everything is targeted towards not letting the patient lie down,” he said, “especially in a hospital setting – and don’t let them near the ER.” McLean said the CCO model is based on the idea that expensive hospital care should be a last resort, with more focus on developing healthy habits and keeping people well.

“The best investment is at the front end of the stream,” he said, adding: “rather than just running repair stations along the river as people bounce along.”

McLean said incidents such as domestic violence, gunshot wounds and drug overdoses mean there will always be a need for an acute care facility in Lincoln City, especially at times when bad weather can cut the power and isolate the Coast from the Valley.

Schwartz said postponing the decision about a replacement hospital building will allow the District to remain flexible and adapt as the full implications of health care reform become apparent.

She said the District’s good working relationship with Samaritan Health Services will allow it to respond quickly to areas of the existing building that require attention.

McLean said that, as landlord, the District is responsible for ensuring that

the hospital building meets all requirements for safety, licensing and accreditation.

“That’s a constant thing with hospitals, with all our wiring and air handling,” he said. “That’s our role as lessor, to make sure it meets everything and at the moment it does.”

come,” he said.

Fellow PAC member Joell Archibald, director of Lincoln County’s public health division, said Lincoln City is a hot spot for poverty and obesity and urged officials to consider

the needs of people who might not speak up during public hearings.

“Often, those whose voices are not heard in the process are the people that need this help the most,” she said.

Meanwhile Pam BarlowLind, Tribal planner for the Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians and also a PAC member, said the Tribe has its own funds that it could bring to the table for some projects.

Councilor Alex Ward said the ballot is a great way to gauge public support, adding that he would not back any tax imposed by a simple Council vote, like the 2010 fuel tax.

The plan divides Lincoln City’s streets into

four types, making recommendations about the ideal improvements for each — favoring bike lanes and sidewalks for Highway 101 and high-use local streets, while opting for shared roadways on medium- and low-use streets.

The plan also suggests alternative improvements for each type of street, because, according to consultant Mike Tresidder of Alta Planning + Design, the ideal improvements might not always be possible due to topography or objections from, adjacent property owners.

“We understand that trade-offs are going to be essential,” he said.

Tressider said one of the issues elected officials

will have to deal with is the extent to which the City wants to reclaim portions of right of way that are blocked by mailboxes, landscaping and makeshift parking.

Planning Commissioner Dennis Knudson said he sees the plan as a potential boon for local businesses, opening up the opportunity for cyclists to park their bikes and step inside.

The planning commission will hold a public hearing on the plan at its Oct. 2 meeting while city council will hold its public hearing on Oct. 8. Both meetings are at 6 p.m. in the council chambers at City Hall.

Taft roundup

Mina’s six goals power Taft girls JIM FOSSUM The News Guard

Taft senior striker Catherine Mina weaved her way around the field for six goals Wednesday, Sept. 19, in an 8-1 girls soccer victory over Tillamook at Voris Field.

“Catherine definitely had the game of her life,” Taft coach Danyel Scott said after Mina led the Tigers to a dominating nonleague win in preparation for Oregon West Conference play.

Mina not only tallied six goals but assisted on another by senior left striker Julissa Alford in helping Taft to its first victory in three matches this season. Senior Alexandria Scott scored the Tigers’ other goal on a free kick.

“It was Catherine’s first game that she was even able to finish as she was out halfway through the first two games with injuries and charley horses,” Scott said.

“She was in her position and on fire.”

Senior Michala Barton, a team tri-captain with Scott and Mina, assisted on one of Mina’s goals in what Coach Scott labeled a team effort.

“The whole team played absolutely amazing. I could not have asked for a better game from each player,” said Scott whose roster has been depleted by injuries and illness. “They needed this game. It brought up their morale and boosted their confidence.”

With 10 players on the field instead of the standard 11, Taft compensated with a different alignment, Scott said.

“Our positioning worked well,” she said. “We tried something new and stacked the top with three strikers, something we don’t normally do as it leaves the center postioning vacant.”

With a defensive line of Brielle Henninger, Hannah Ray, Sheyssa Ortiz and Robin Long in support of goalie Kietra Mason, the Tigers denied the Cheesemakers the back half of the field.

Volleyball — The Tigers understand that serving and passing will be key to the team’s success and showed improvement but inconsistency in both ares in three defeats last week, coach Frank Napoleon said.

Taft dropped a nonleague game to Tillamook and its opening Oregon West Conference matches to Stayton and Philomath to fall to 0-7 as it looks to put all facets of the game together.

Following a 25-10, 25-12, 25-14 home loss to Tillamook on Monday, Sept. 17, the Tigers lost 25-13, 25-17, 25-12 at Stayton on Tuesday, Sept. 18, in the their conference opener, and 25-10, 254, 25-7 at home to Philomath on Thursday, Sept. 20.

Calling the Stayton match his team’s best serving match to date, the Tigers were led by seniors Alina Button and McKenna Sarvis at the service line with 9-for-9 and 8-for-8 efforts, respectively.

While Taft was 42 of 43

serving as a team, Napoleon said he wasn’t as pleased with its performance in other offensive categories. .

“The team struggled in the passing and hitting area,” he said. “When we did get a good pass and set we were not keeping the ball in play with a hit or dink.”

Sophomore Katie McCardell led Taft against the Eagles (3-7) with three blocks, Kelsey Wilkinson with three assists and Sarvis with seven digs.

More offensive woes victimized the Tigers in a threegame loss to Philomath (5-2) as Taft again was unable to get a pass to the setter to run the offense, Napoleon said.

Bailey had three kills and a block, sophomore BillyAnn Stempel three assists, and junior Taylor Adams nine digs.

“We played good defense at times against a very good hitting Philomath team,” Napoleon said.

In the week’s opening loss to Tillamook, Taft was led by Bailey and Alexa Taunton with four kills each; McCardell and Bailey with

three blocks apiece; Button with seven assists; and Button and Sarvis with 9 of 9 and 8 of 8 serving Napoleon saud Adams and Taunton exceled in passing and digs.

College offers new health care classes This fall term, Oregon Coast Community College is offering several additional Allied Health programs including Basic Nursing Assistant, Acute Care Nursing Assistant, and Home Health Aide.

These programs can be completed in one to two terms. A new Medical Assistant Program is also starting this fall term.

Students can earn a Medical Assistant Certificate (45 credits) over nine months.

The classes will be held at the College’s South County Center in Waldport.

These programs, as well as the new Criminal Justice Program, were made available through a Department of Labor grant awarded to the College.

“It is crucial for the community to spread the word about these study opportunities and to encourage students to be part of these career solidifying programs through OCCC,” Bruce Koike, interim OCCC president said. “I trust that the students who take their motivation into the OCCC campus will be successful.”

“The Nursing Program has been a significant program at the College for the past seven years,” Jane Hodgkins, OCCC’s director of career and technical education, said. “It very much meets the workforce needs of health care employers in Lincoln County.

The new Allied Health programs have also been developed in response to local workforce needs. It s been a wonderful partnership.”

Taft High 7-12 staffer Susan Smith was taken aback upon her arrival at the school a few years ago when a student rushed up to her during a 60-mile college recruiting field trip to Oregon Western University in Monmouth.

“I didn’t know the kids and hadn’t had much exposure to them,” Smith said, “and one came up and was like, ‘Oh, Mrs. Smith, this is so cool.’ And I said, ‘Yes, it [the college] is.’ And, he said, ‘No. the town. I’ve never been out of Lincoln City.’”

The encounter with the middle-school student came as a shock to Smith, who had never been around kids who were so unexposed to life out of high school. It’s led her to place the label “dream deficient” on many of Taft’s underprivileged students who haven’t pondered life off the Oregon Coast.

Smith said she would ask students what their aspirations were out of high school — in other words, “What do you want to do when you grow up?” — and many hadn’t even thought about it.

“We told them there are options outside of Lincoln City that are OK for them to dream about,” she said, “that it’s OK for them to be a scientist, because if you don’t dream about it, how are you going to do it?”

To the rescue at Taft has been GEAR UP, a national secondary education assistance program that has supplied a $35,000 recurring grant that expires at the end of the next school year.

Through funding from GEAR UP, Taft now not only brings kids to the colleges but the colleges to them through fairs and the like. Its involvement in the school’s ability to promote secondary education hardy stops there, however.

GEAR UP (Gaining Early Awareness and Readiness for Undergraduate Programs) is intent on encouraging young people to start planning for college in middle school by focusing on helping underserved students prepare for college and gain access to financial aid.

“It provides the financial resources and the extra support for us to connect high school kids to college and

Taft students are becoming more knowledgeable about college and more intent on attending thanks to GEAR UP, a national program that keeps middle and high school students cognizant of the benefits of secondary education.

how to get the most out of our kids to pursue secondary education,” Taft counselor Vicky Roller said.

The annual grant is just part of the organization’s contribution to Taft, Smith, the school’s GEAR UP coordinator, said. Approximately $100,000 has been awarded for technological advances at a school that had outdated computers and lacked numerous modern advancements.

“The kids were technologically savvy but with floppy discs and no thumb drives they couldn’t even save their work,” she said.

In addition to staging internship and summer school programs, proficiency-based classes and family nights, GEAR UP money has helped Taft create a more professional-looking, college-themed counseling center with things as simple as school banners.

“The students just get exposed to the education and that college language from the seventh grade on so they learn about things like subsidized loans,” Roller said. “They start to learn the different language that you wouldn’t know otherwise.”

Tigers pay price for penalties JIM FOSSUM The News Guard

An interception by Taft senior Keanu Eastman on Tillamook’s first play and a subsequent series of penalties were an indication of the type of emotional rollercoaster ride that awaited the Tigers on Friday, Sept. 21.

Just as Taft set its sights on sustaining a drive for a score and a shot at the season’s first victory, mental mistakes intervened and the host Cheesemakers of the Class 4A Cowapa Conference waltzed off with a 14-0 win.

“Every time we’d get a drive going into their territory we had a penalty that would pull us back out, so it was frustrating,” said first-year Taft coach Perry Herbst, whose team opens Oregon West Conference play Friday, Sept. 28, at Stayton.

“I don’t think we digressed at all; I think we got better,” Herbst said. “But I didn’t like all the penalties.”

Herbst said in addition to Eastman, senior Brent Martin intercepted a pass in the flat and had a good return before another 15-yard penalty backed the team up and halted a potential march down field.

Taft High School graduates plan to line up across the line of scrimmage from one another in what they hope will become an annual homecoming-week, flag-football alumni game.

Organized by sophomore BillyAnn Stempel, a project coordinator for the school, the first game is planned for 7 p.m., Thursday, Oct. 4, at Voris Field prior to the Tigers’ Friday night home game against Philomath.

One team, to be organized by local youth coach and Taft graduate Daniel Cochran and longtime former Taft football coach Jack Wilkinson, will meet a team led by former football coach Ken Martin, his son and former player Brock Martin, and school administrator Ryan Hawkins.

Other Taft staffers, such as Sandy Tucker and Diana Elroy of the school’s counseling office, will be cheerleaders at the event, Stempel said.

The game will be sponsored by the Taft High School Booster Club, which will provide T-shirts to the participants, she said.

Tips for Fall Garden Chores Along Garden Paths

By Karen Brown

Fall is not only the season of preparation for winter to come, it also sets the stage for next year.

The cleaning up, trimming and mulching you do now will give you a head start next spring when rainy weather often keeps us indoors.

The cooler, damper nights we’re getting now are perfect for slugs to carry out their reproduction program.

They lay eggs in sheltered places, under debris and even underground at this time of year. The more of those places you eliminate, the harder it is for them to find a good site for that mass of eggs. And the more of the slugs themselves you eliminate, the fewer there are to produce the eggs.

There are lots of ways to eliminate slugs. Use the method you prefer. I like to chop them up when I find them out “walking” on cool mornings. And I like to put commercial bait into homemade traps placed in likely locations, and to sprinkle it on the ground where appropriate. I don’t use it around food crops. Don’t overlook your compost pile. After all, making compost of dead plant material is their only useful purpose in this world, but you don’t want to deliver them to your garden when you use that compost.

Tender bulb plants like tuberous begonias can stay outdoors while their foliage matures, returning strength to the roots that overwinter, but be watchful for the time to rescue them before freezing weather begins. Tuberous begonias need to be put in a dry location to finish healing off. Dahlias and gladioli can be left in the ground here, if your drainage is good. They will not tolerate soggy soil through the winter, however.

If you choose to dig and store any kind of bulbs, place them in a cold but frost free location. They can be insulated with dry peat moss or sawdust, but should not be enclosed in plastic, which is likely to cause rotting.

This is the right time to plant the spring blooming bulbs, including among others daffodils, tulips, hyacinths, and crocus. If you plant them in pots, shelter them from freezing, since severe cold penetrating the sides of the pots may damage the bulbs inside.

It is also the right time to plant garlic. Put it in a spot you won’t need to dig up for the rest of the garden in the spring. It needs the winter chill followed by summer warmth.

I like growing annual flowers, because when they are finished or when the weather turns cold enough to spoil their beauty, I can pull out everything, work up or at least rake out the soil, and leave everything clean and neat. This is the perfect opportunity to cover the bed with compost or mulch, which can then be worked in before replanting in the spring. This sort of twice a year working does a lot to get rid of weeds.

The same is true in the vegetable garden. Even in raised beds, unless you really do have a winter crop of vegetables you are going to use, you should clean up the surface and either mulch or plant a winter cover crop. My winter crop preference is crimson clover, which germinates quickly and protects the soil over winter, then adds organic material when we rototill it into the soil in the spring just before it begins to bloom. It is relatively easy to spade in as well, for smaller spaces or raised beds. Do not confuse the variety “Crimson Clover” with any other clover, however, because many clovers are perennial and become persistent weeds you can never eliminate if seeded into the garden.

The list of fall gardening tasks goes on and on. Let common sense guide you and get the work done now before fall weather becomes more like winter.

ART

et There Be Arts is in the midst of planning for their 12th Gala Fundraiser, FALL INTO ART, taking place this year on Saturday, Oct. 20. It will be held for the first time at the Lincoln City Cultural Center.

Festivities begin at 5:30 p.m. with wine and hors d’oeuvres for guests to enjoy while they peruse the wide selection of silent auction items donated by area merchants and artists. Also available will be the traditional “Teasers” on sale for $20 and guaranteed to contain items or services valued from $25 and up. The “tease” is that the purchaser doesn’t know what exactly is in the bag until they buy it.

New this year will be the “Pe-

tite Paintings” on display in the Cultural Center’s Chessman Gallery. Dozens of local and regional artists have painted, collaged or otherwise creatively covered small 5”x5” or 6”x6” canvases that will sell for $50 and $60. During the evening, a buffet supper will be served prepared by area chefs. Guests will also enjoy music with plenty of room for dancing to the lively tunes of local band, The Ocean.

Let There Be Arts is a nonprofit arts organization working in partnership with the Lincoln County School District to help keep arts in the schools. Founded on the belief that all disciplines benefit from the critical and

Sharfeddin’s first novel was 2005’s Blackbelly, a contemporary western praised by The Chicago Tribune as “a good old-fashioned cowboy tale that’s as gritty as they come…” She currently lives in Oregon.

On Oct. 11th, Johnny Shaw will visit the library from Portland. The author of the books Dove Season and this year’s Big Maria, Shaw also is the editor-inchief of and frequent contributor to the online fiction quarterly, Blood & Tacos, a loving homage to the men’s adventure paperbacks of the 1970s and 80s.

Amanda Lee will be visiting all the way from southwest Virginia on Oct. 18th. Amanda writes a series of embroidery cozies set on the Central Oregon Coast including the titles The Quick and the Thread, The Long Stitch Good Night and this year’s Thread on Arrival.

To wrap up the series, Jack Judge, from here in Lincoln City, celebrates the publication of his most recent novel. Jack’s novels include Crosetti’s Curse, The Dead Lie Restless in Pedro Creek and Death Rides the Carousel.

The programs are sponsored by The Driftwood Library Foundation and the D’Sands Condominium Motel who have graciously donated lodging for the authors. All programs are free to the public. All of the programs will take place at the library, 801 SW Highway 101 (2nd Floor) in Lincoln City.

The story of drift boats and river dories that ply rivers around the world is a local story that begins on Oregon’s McKenzie and Rogue Rivers. These handy river runners that double as fishing platforms emerged four generations ago, and their evolution to the present time reflects riverboats that are adapted to specific needs and river requirements. Form follows function.

The story of these unique boats is comprehensively told by Roger Fletcher in his book, “Drift Boats and River Dories: Their History, Design, Construction and Use” (Stackpole Books, 2007), and the book captures a piece of Oregon history that otherwise might have floated downstream to oblivion.

Fletcher will speak from 1-3 p.m. at the Oct. 2 session of the Oregon Coastal Learning Institute.

His interactive presentation will include an overview of the people behind the boats, techniques he used to recover the lines of the original boats, and footage of some of the early boats as examples that led to changes in boat types. He will bring several of his scale models to demonstrate these differences. The author will have books available for sale and signing, and he will be pleased to sign books already in hand.

Fletcher is a Dallas, Oregon,

creative thinking that visual arts, music, dance and drama provide, LTBA is focused on fostering and promoting all aspects of art in the classroom and beyond. LTBA has also created opportunities for students to participate in Lincoln City’s Public Art Projects, most visible of which are the cedar salmon

at the Regatta Grounds and the underwater mural under the Driftwood Public Library.

Tickets are $50 each and festivities start at 5:30 p.m. Tickets can be purchased online at www. lettherebearts.com , or call 503812-7813. We hope to see you there!

Roger Fletcher, Oregon Coast Learning Institute’s presenter for the afternoon of October 2, 2012. drift boat aficionado who retired from Oregon State University Extension in 1997. He has collected oral histories, recovered and documented the lines and construction detail of 13 riverboats that reflect the boats’ evolution. He has crafted scale models of each boat, built several full-size, and wrote and published his book. “Drift boats and River Dories” is sold worldwide and the author regularly receives letters and photos from

readers who have built one or more boats from the book. “That is one of the gratifying features of the project: to see these boats come back to life,” Fletcher said.

Oregon Coast Learning Institute is an organization of retired and semi-retired people who desire to continue their education in an atmosphere of sharing learning. For more information call 541-7642444 or visit www.ocli.us.

Rock Violin and world music combine in Lincoln City Concert rock violinist Aaron Meyer has performed with such vastly contrasting artists such as Pink Martini, Smokey Robinson, Aaron Neville, The Temptations, Leftover Salmon, 2002 Miss America Katie Harman, and the platinum record selling band, Everclear. And on Friday, Oct. 5, he’ll perform at the Lincoln City Cultural Center.

The concert will begin at 7 p.m.

Tickets are $15 in advance and $17 at the door. And, as always, children 12 and under are admitted free. For tickets, call the LCCC at 541-994-9994.

A classically trained violinist, Meyer debuted with the Philadelphia Orchestra at age 11, and has soloed with major international symphony orchestras and ballet companies, in addition to per-

forming for many world leaders and dignitaries. Meyer has recorded nine albums thus far, including his latest CD of original music entitled “The Journey… not Aaron the Destination” Meyer which features his own compositions and dynamic arrangements inspired by his passion for world travel and culture.

After earning his master’s degree from Portland State University, Meyer joined the band Pink Martini and recorded on their debut

CD, “Sympathique” (which has sold over 700,000 copies world wide). He performed with Pink Martini for almost two years; shortly thereafter he began composing his own original music and released his first solo CD “Near The Edge.” He began his journey of combining classical and rock music on this CD, which was commissioned for the Oregon Ballet Theatre production of “Dance Near The Edge.”
