The North Lincoln Fire and Rescue District #1 (NLFR) water rescue team was called to the 15th Street beach access shortly after 4 p.m. Aug. 30 after witnesses called 911 about a possible drowning.

“When our crews arrived, the man was out of the water,” said Capt. Jim Kusz of NLFR. “Witnesses had apparently pulled him to shore. He was still breathing.

People at the scene said the man was caught on the rocks and was struck by a wave.”

Weekly Rainfall: .71 inches Yearly Rainfall: 34.09 inches

WEEKLY OUTLOOK Now that it’s back to work and school, a few sprinkles won’t hurt. The first full weekend of September looks promising, with partly cloudy to partly sunny both days.

NLFR crews brought the victim to a waiting ambulance and he was taken to the hospital.

Debbie Cox was one of the witnesses on the beach.

Taft High 7-12 science teacher Avery Marvin has something special to tell her students when it comes time for them to share their back-to-school ritual, “What I did on my summer vacation.”

With school back in session, Marvin can tell her pupils about setting sail in early July to assist scientists on an 18-day hydrographic survey to chart the ocean floor in the Gulf of Alaska.

Marvin participated in a cruise as part of NOAA’s “Teacher at Sea” program, which bridges science and education through real-world research experiences.

“Through my experience with NOAA, I look forward to informing and inspiring my students about the wonders, significance and difficulties of authentic maritime science so that they, too, will become appreciative and mindful citizen scientists of the greatest resource in their very backyard — the ocean,” she said.

Marvin boarded the NOAA ship Rainier on July 8 in Kodiak, Alaska, and assisted scientists daily as they participated in an ongoing hydrographic survey of Alaskan waters.

Taft High 7-12 science teacher Avery Marvin learned how to chart waters and produce navigational maps during her stint with NOAA’s “Teacher at Sea” program.

As a “Teacher at Sea,” Marvin said there was a lot involved with her experience that was quite complicated and technical, requiring her to share her thoughts through a blog at http://teacheratsea.wordpress.com/ category/avery-marvin/ .

“One of my goals was to bridge a stronger connection with the local NOAA headquarters in Newport,” Marvin said. “Because of this connection, I look forward to taking my students on a field trip to visit the Rainier and I hope to have a few NOAA guest speakers in my class this year.”

After her departure from Kodiak, Marvin traveled southwest to the Shumagin Islands, where the majority of the research on the first leg of the trip was conducted.

The Rainier, home-ported at the NOAA Marine Operations Center – Pacific in Newport, is a hydrographic surveying ship whose primary focus is mapping the sea floor in coastal areas. The depth data collected on the Rainier is used to update nautical charts.

It is crucial work as commercial shippers, passenger vessels and fishing fleets rely on accurate nautical maps to safely traverse various ocean

With the new school year comes heightened concern about school bus safety from Lincoln County School District administrators and school bus drivers.

“I have not seen any children hit as they come off a school bus in the Lincoln City area, but I have seen some really close calls, said Kathy Clippard, who has been driving Lincoln County School District buses for 22-years and also trains other school bus drivers.

Clippard said drivers teach the students to carefully look for traffic as they get onto and off a school bus.

“We teach our children safety, safety, safety,” said Clippard. “We use hand signals and the bus horn to alert students emerging from the bus of any traffic danger.”

Mark Culver, Mid Columbia Bus Co. and Lincoln County School District location manager, said while drivers are well trained for safety, they can only do so much to protect children riding the buses.

“When the school bus red lights are activated, drivers are required by law to

Fill the Boot, Stuff A Bus campaigns a success Usually, boots are made for walking, but over the past weekend North Lincoln Fire & Rescue District #1 (NLFR) firefighters used their boots to collect cold hard cash.

The crews stationed themselves at the intersection of Highway 101 and East Devils Lake Road and Highway 101 at Logan Road in Lincoln City Saturday and Sunday for their annual Fill the Boot campaign, an effort to raise funds and awareness for the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA).

The crews collected $21,300. Last year the NLFR firefighters raised $20,000 for MDA. On Friday, volunteers working the annual Stuff A Bus fundraiser at Tanger Factory Outlet Center raised $13,630 in cash and school supplies to be contributed to local schools.

Dick Wasson, with the Lincoln City Kiwanis Club, places one of several American flags on Labor Day as a project the club took over after the Lincoln City Lions Club disbanded.

Kiwanis place American flags along Lincoln City streets American flags could be seen flying proudly along streets and in front of many businesses in Lincoln City on Labor Day, Sept. 2, thanks to the Lincoln City Kiwanis Club.

Over the past several years, The Lincoln City Lions Club had been placing dozens of flags, 120 in all, along Highway 101 during several annual holidays. But the project was in jeopardy when the Lions Club announced last spring it was disbanding.

The Kiwanis Club agreed to take over the project and began placing the flags on Independence Day, the Fourth of July, this summer at designated street corners and in

front of local businesses.

“It shows off the community and it shows we really care about our veterans and people in the military,” said Jay Heck with the Lincoln City Kiwanis Club.

The Kiwanis will place and remove the flags in Lincoln City on Labor Day, Patriots Day, Veterans Day, Presidents Day, Armed Forces Day, Memorial Day, Flag Day and Independence Day. Businesses pay a $30 annual fee to have the flags placed in front of their establishments.

To have a flag placed at your business or to find out more about the project, Contact Jim Sage at 541-921-8907.

Pool gets new, energy-efficient boiler system JEREMY C. RUARK The News Guard

A $140,000 project to replace the aging boiler at the Lincoln City pool is under way this week at the Lincoln City Community Center.

“The boiler is about 40 years old and was original equipment at the pool and has never been upgraded in the life of the pool,” said Lila Bradley, Lincoln City Public Works director. “If the old boiler went down, the pool would be cold and we would not be able to operate the pool and associated elements. It has reached its life expectancy, and it’s time to replace it.”

In May, The Lincoln City City Council approved the low bid of $127,300 by Hydro-temp Mechanical to conduct the boiler replacement project. The Council budgeted $140,000 for the entire project, including the

passages. In the case of Rainier’s work in Alaska, some of the terrain was surveyed for the first time.

When navigating, ships use charts, either electronic or paper, to plot a safe course through an area, Marvin said.

“In open ocean, you typically don’t have to worry about navigational hazards [rocks, shoals, ship wrecks], but as you get closer to land, these are more and more common, and ships need to be able to avoid them,” she said.

While on board, she worked primarily as part of the Survey Team, the people taking the hydrographic measurements.

Unlike old-time surveyors who used lead lines (lead weight attached to a long string), the crew used a multi-beam sonar system, which enabled it to gather a large quantity of accurate data in a more efficient and timely fashion.

Sonar (Sound Navigation and Ranging) uses the principle of sound-wave reflection to detect objects in the water, Marvin said.

“Just as our eyes see the reflection of visible light off of the objects around us to create a visual image, when a sound wave hits something, it reflects off that ‘thing’ and returns to its starting point [the receiver],” she said.

“We can measure the time it takes for a pulse to travel from the sonar device below the boat to the ocean floor and then back to the receiver on the boat. Using a simple

My friend recently invited me to attend the free Clam Digging Clinic mentioned in the Community Calendar.

Purchasing my shellfish license, the man at the counter couldn’t quite figure out how I had grown up on the Oregon Coast, but was just now getting my first shellfish license.

We met at Driftwood Library for a class that would prepare us for how to harvest and prepare them. Then, with boots, bags, and shovels, we went out at low tide and dug eight to 18 inches down to find the buried treasure of purple varnish clams.

Each time one of us would find one in our own holes, we would squeal with delight and quickly reached our limits. It was like searching for buried treasure and capturing them before they dug themselves deeper into the sand. That was the fun part.

Preparing them was a different story.

We took them home, soaked and rinsed them in rock salt water, and boiled them for under a minute until they popped open.

Then, the real work began.

Each one of the tiny creatures had to be cleaned, and that meant squeezing out the black intestinal sack that was filled with sand and dirt. Out of the entire process, that part took the longest and was the hardest.

Now I know why I hadn’t been clamming before. It is difficult, time-consuming work. Not that I am afraid of hard work, but just that I generally make time for

things other than cleaning out clam guts.

The result, however, was delicious clam chowder with large clams in every bite.

The process reminded me that there are some things in life that require hard work and effort that are worth the time and energy it takes.

True friendship for example, requires hard work. It can be hard work to make time to connect and

encourage each other. The easy thing to do is to gossip and say cruel things about someone.

It might feel good or powerful at the time, but it is almost like digging ourselves deeper into the sand. Hebrews 3:13 says, “So encourage each other daily, while it is still called today.”

Today is important, and on a daily basis I can choose to invest my time into building people up and encouraging them. Words can change someone’s life forever, for better or worse. And the simplest word of encouragement

often can make an incredible impact.

Ordering a cup or opening a can of clam chowder is easy. Harvest and preparing the clams is hard work, but well worth it. Take time today to invest in a friendship. Maybe invite them to go clamming.

scores of House Republicans who are hearing very little of the clamor. These lawmakers are insulated in safe districts where immigration activists don’t bother to venture….” These representatives don’t support immigration reform because their constituents allow them to ignore reform. There are thousands of Americans who just don’t care about doing the right thing because they are not directly affected. This is shameful! Millions off undocumented immigrants are working, paying taxes, paying into the social security system (money they will never receive), con-

tributing to our society the same way American citizens do. Why are so many Americans so selfish? How can they ignore 11 million fellow human beings? Why can’t they stop worrying about what they can do legally and start worrying about what they should do morally? We Americans must act morally and force our representatives in Washington to do the same.

Voices of Lincoln County Backpack Program volunteers needed My name is Julie Pearson and I am a volunteer with the Backpack for Kids program in Lincoln City.

We plan on beginning the program the third week of September, but have unfortunately lost several key volunteers that have moved out of the area. We need new volunteers this year for the packing and delivery of the backpacks to Taft Elementary School each week. This process takes about two hours each week that we have school (not on holidays or

school breaks). If we can get more volunteers it will lighten the load for all of us collectively. We try to stager the schedule so that no one person has to pack every week. Most of us are either semi-retired, or retired so it gives us time to do the other things in life that we all want to do.

This program is making a huge difference for the low-income kids in our community that need the additional nutrition for the weekends to better prepare them for each coming school week. Donations of time or funds are always needed to help keep this important pro-

gram going. People who are interested can reach me at: jpearson1252@ gmail.com.

It’s back to school, pay attention to school bus laws The Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office reminds drivers of their responsibility to stop for school buses displaying red flashing lights. Because buses are large vehicles, the level of difficulty to see around them increases. The outcome of illegally passing a stopped bus is potentially devastating for children and drivers.

Law enforcement agencies continue to receive reports of motorists failing to stop for school buses from bus drivers and other citizens each year. With nearly 6,000 school buses operating in Oregon, motorists need to be alert.

Oregon law requires motorists to stop whenever the red lights on a school bus are flashing, regardless of the direction you are traveling. The law applies to any roadway with two or more lanes of traffic, including multi-lane highways such as Highway 101.

The only exception is for divided highways with two roads separated by an unpaved median strip or barrier, such as in the Lincoln and Gleneden Beach areas.

Sheriff’s Tips

By Sheriff Dennis Dotson

In this case, only drivers on the same side of the road as the bus must stop. A painted median strip or a center lane used only for left turns does not create two separate lanes.

Where this situation exists, all lanes of traffic must stop.

When a bus is flashing amber lights, motorists should prepare to stop. When the red lights begin to flash, motorists traveling in both directions must stop before reaching the bus and must remain stopped until the red lights are turned off. The same rules apply to church or worker buses equipped with amber and red flashing lights.

Please do your part to make our roads safe. Be aware when following any type of bus. It might be making frequent stops. Following these tips will help reduce the risk of traffic crashes and

County animal shelter building straining under age, overuse

Officials with the Lincoln County Animal shelter say they need a new facility to meet the needs of the community. or constructing new space for laundry facilities. For the long term, officials are exploring options to build a 14,000-square-foot shelter, retrofit another building, or renovate the 8,000-squarefoot shelter because the laundry room isn’t the only problem.

“The roof leaks in a number of places, there is not a separate space for sick or seized dogs, cat rooms are in the middle of the dog kennel area and more space for cats is needed, and the lobby is cramped,” said Ireland.

“We know we could do so much better, and be even better, with a facility that reflects our community’s values, takes advantage of

modern shelter design and construction materials, and is just a better space for sheltered animals, our staff, and the thousands of people who utilize our services and programs.”

The shelter serves about 1,200 animals annually. Ireland said the cramp shelter space restricts areas for customer service, adding emotion to the challenges.

“The limited space is hard on the community and emotional when someone is trying to surrender a dog and others are trying to adopt an animal,” said Ireland.

A voter-approved property tax levy that was passed in 2012 created a permanent animal services taxing dis-

Jackson selected Ambassador of Year

trict that funds basic animal shelter operations as well as three animal services deputies. Ireland said over the past three years, a significant reserve of funds has been built up; however, the tax levy was not intended to cover all needs of the animal shelter indefinitely.

“A new or rehabbed building is going to require support from our community’s animal lovers above and beyond the tax levy,” said Ireland.

Shelter officials hope to have the results of a financial feasibility study by November to see what type of private donations and fundraising events could conduct.

“It would be above and beyond the current tax levy,” said Ireland. “We won’t be asking the county for an additional tax increase.”

The shelter has been in renewed discussions with Friends of Lincoln County Animals (FOLCAS) about how it could best utilize donations and funds raised at the Pick of the Litter thrift store and other FOLCAS fundraising projects.

FOLCAS has been paying for pre-adoption spay and neuter for shelter

animals since 2009. FOLCAS recently expanded support for the spay/neuter program to include related medical services, is purchasing microchips for all adopted animals and funding a licensing campaign, bringing the groups level of support to nearly $50,000 per year.

Shelter officials said the laundry room fire incident has opened another opportunity for the Lincoln County Animal Shelter and FOLCAS to work together to benefit homeless animals.

Officials with the Lincoln County Animal Shelter say persistent structural challenges at the facility in Newport have led to a review of options to better serve the community.

The announcement follows an electrical fire at the shelter at 510 N.E. Harney St. on Aug. 28.

Shelter officials said the incident was frightening and highlights the age and inadequacy of the 50-yearold portion of the building that puts staff and the animals at risk.

“We are very proud of the number of ways we have become a very progressive animal shelter,” said Laura Ireland, Lincoln County Animal Shelter director. “However, we fight the building every day, and having a scary thing like an electrical fire due to the age and inadequacy of the structure highlights the urgency of the problems.”

The shelter currently uses residential washers and dryers nearly all day long seven days a week. According to shelter officials, due to their excessive use, there is constant turnover of repair and purchasing of new or refurbished machines. In order to consider commercial washers and dryers, a new space would need to be constructed and electrical wiring upgraded.

In the short term, shelter officials are considering refiguring space

He went on to serve in the Army for 23 years, including stations in Germany and Corvallis, Oregon, where he taught ROTC at Oregon State University before retiring as a Master Sergeant in 1967.

happened upon a large family that appeared to be frantic. One person was far out on one of the larger rocks, completely surrounded by the water. I thought he might have been stranded. I then noticed that he was attempting to get to another rock and assist another person that was pulling someone from the water.”

Cox said 911 was called by onlookers just as she started to take pictures of the incident.

Kusz said the man appeared to be in his late 20s.

The victim’s name and his condition were not immediately available.

The 15th Street beach access is a popular tourist location. Just a few weeks ago, NLFR crews were called to the same area after another man had a mishap in the ocean. That man was able to get to shore on his own without serious injury.

This summer, emergency crews have been busy with such rescue calls. A Pasco, Wash., man died July 31 following a bodysurfing incident in the ocean at Lincoln City.

Kathryn Agnes Gent of Vancouver, Wash., drowned June 28 while swimming

in the ocean at the D River Wayside. Officials said Gent and her daughter were caught in a dangerous rip current while swimming beyond the breakers.

On March 5, crews recovered the body of 24-year-old Daniel Lee Ahlers of Lincoln City near Cascade Head after he was reported missing while jet skiing.

Kusz urged beach goers to be extremely careful when on the beach. He also recommends that no one swim in the ocean off Lincoln City beaches because of the dangerous rip currents.

Police mount third Pedestrian Enforcement Operation Lincoln City Police will conduct the department’s third Pedestrian Enforcement Operation of the summer between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. Sept. 9 on Highway 101 between N. 19th Street and N. 22nd Street.

The primary focus of the operation is to raise pedestrian safety awareness. With the use of a decoy pedestrian, the Lincoln City Police Department hopes to raise awareness of drivers and pedestrians through education and enforcement of pedestrian right-of-way laws.

Officers issued 13 citations for crosswalk and traffic violations during the second Pedestrian Enforcement Operation, conducted Aug. 9. During the first enforcement operation this summer held on July 22 at N. 3rd Street and Highway 101, Lincoln City officers issued 17 citations for pedestrian

safety violations.

“Most of the traffic violators are drivers not paying attention,” said Lincoln City Police Sgt. Jeffrey Winn.

“Often they are texting or talking on their cell phone.”

Warning signs will be posted on the day before the operation, alerting drivers

the operation is set for the next day. The warning will then be changed on the day of the operation, indicating the operation is occurring that day.

“It is important to remember that this is the time of year when school is starting back up and motorists need to be extra cautious and alert for pedestrians in and around our area schools,” said Winn. “Motorists need to slow down when entering a designated school zone to the 20 mile per hour speed limit.”

Winn said patrol officers will monitor the school zones in Lincoln City to make sure drivers are following the law.

Funding for the pedestrian safety operations is made possible through a grant from ACTS Oregon and Oregon Department of Transportation.

SEE VIDEO AT THENEWSGUARD.COM Lincoln County School District bus drivers attended annual safety training last week in Lincoln City to prepare for the new school year. training.

“We are constantly training and upgrading for safety,” she said. “I train the drivers to develop the best driving habits they can offer.”

The school bus drivers are also trained in behavioral management.

“You have 60 to 80 children on your bus and you have to effectively manage those kids while you are driving and you have your back to them,’ said Clippard.

“That’s why you have to develop good relations with the kids, their parents and the school staff.”

Barnhart said the challenge is having drivers develop trusting relationships with the students they carry on the buses and dealing with the motoring public.

“Over the past 10 years we have developed programs to help our drivers better manage students, identify issues on the bus, report those issues, and provide the student and parents with a resource they can feel comfortable with,” said Barnhart.

Camera systems are also maintained on all the Lincoln County School District buses to better track on-board issues.

Another safety concern is parents driving their children to school.

“We see a lot of issues at the school sites where

parents pull up to drop their children off and they let them out of the vehicle on the traffic side of the car and the kids run across the road into traffic. That’s a huge issue at Taft Elementary School in Lincoln City. Parents just need to be aware and pay attention.”

Clippard said impatient parents at school sites often cause dangerous situations.

“They get their kids into the car and take off oblivious to what’s going on around them and the safety of other children,” said Clippard.

Lincoln City Police plan stepped-up patrols in and around school zones this month and will also be carefully monitoring school bus routes for traffic violators.

The latest Lincoln County School District figures show approximately 3,000 students will use the buses this year.

Approximately 80 drivers use 75 buses to operate 55 regular routes in the district at a cost of $2.5 million to the district.

One option under review to reduce the transportation cost to the district is the use of propane-operated buses.

“It’s a low-cost alternative that we will be talking to the school board about,” said Barnhart.

stop and wait until the bus continues,” said Culver.

“Frequently, some drivers do not stop. They are not watching and that continues to be a big problem. It is up to the motoring public to help keep those kids safe.”

He said some drivers don’t immediately see children crossing the road so they think it is safe to pass the stopped bus.

“Those drivers don’t realize that when the bus is stopped in the lane of traffic the students are getting off the bus on the shoulder side of the road and might be crossing lanes of traffic,” he said. “If it is a two-lane highway divided by a median barrier, those vehicles on the opposite site of the bus don’t have to stop, but if there is no divider, all vehicles are required to stop.”

The fine for not stopping for a stopped school bus with its red lights flashing is $435.

Culver said the bus drivers keep a keen eye on traffic before they stop the bus in the lanes of traffic.

“We look for the best times to stop and we won’t confuse drivers,” he said.

“The bus drivers are very aware of the traffic, but there have been a lot of near misses with the kids, especially in Newport and Toledo because of the heavy traffic.”

Mark Barnhart, CEO of Mid Columbia Bus Co., the agency contracted by the Lincoln County School District to provide the transportation services, urged motorists to be very patient when they are in traffic with a school bus.

“Those flashing lights are on for a purpose, but there are still drivers that pass the buses when they are loading or unloading students and that is a huge safety issue,” he said.

Barnhart helped lead the bus drivers’ annual training session in Lincoln City last week. The session covers policies, standards, education program updates, and safety issues.

“We want all the drivers to be very aware of their stops, how they get to school, making sure the students are focused on where they get off and getting to know their driver,” said Barnhart. “We also are focused on getting the students off the bus and through crosswalks safely.”

Clippard said drivers are required to manage dozens of students while they are on the bus daily. She said the district offers more than the state-required eight hours of

Burglary arrest in South Beach Quick action by a South Beach resident led to the arrest of a Bend man in an attempted burglary.

The case unfolded Aug. 31 at 9 a.m. when the South Beach resident called 911 to report someone attempting to break into his home in the 13700 block of South Coast Highway in South Beach.

The man told dispatchers he heard pounding and prying against his front door and could see his door was bulging in. The man yelled from inside his residence and then observed a subject pulling down his driveway in a blue Ford Explorer at a high rate of speed. He said there were pry marks and cracked wood on his door and doorframe.

Lincoln County Sheriff’s deputies located and stopped the suspect vehicle on Highway 101 near Ferry Slip Road.

Deputies detained the driver, Jason Russell Girod, 42, of Bend.

During a search of the vehicle, deputies located

Jason Russell Girod a crow bar, hammer, gloves and flashlights.

Deputies also located a plastic bag containing prescription-controlled medication not belonging to Girod.

Deputies took Girod into custody for attempted burglary I; unlawful possession of burglary tools; criminal mischief II; and unlawful possession of prescription medication. Girod was lodged at the Lincoln County Jail with bail of $145,000.

Drug investigation nabs two local men Two Lincoln City-area men face charges following their arrest Aug. 29 by the Lincoln County Interagency Narcotics Team (LINT).

LINT members, assisted by Lincoln City Police and a Newport Police Department K-9 unit, served a search warrant at a residence in the 1100 block of S.W. 16th Street.

The residence was a small, detached shed next to the main house. The persons residing in the main house were not involved in the investigation.

Subsequent search led to the seizure of more than three-quarters of an ounce of methamphetamine and other evidence related to possession and delivery of methamphetamine, fentanyl, hashish and the use of heroin.

Stephen Harbin, 31,

was arrested for unlawful delivery, manufacture and possession of methamphetamine; unlawful possession of fentanyl and unlawful possession of hashish.

Tyler Lane Hurlbert, 24, was arrested for unlawful possession of heroin, and unlawful possession of methamphetamine. Hurlbert and Harbin were lodged at Lincoln County Jail.

An adult female was also contacted but not arrested.

Further investigation is being conducted by LINT, which is comprised of members of the Lincoln City Police Department, Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office, Lincoln County District Attorney’s Office, Newport Police Department and Oregon State Police.

Tigers low on numbers, high on enthusiasm JIM FOSSUM The News Guard

What the Taft High cross country team lacks in numbers and experience it hopes to overcome in desire and enthusiasm behind team leaders Kendal Gile on the boys side and Sarahi Herver among the girls.

“The strength of the cross country team is that they are hard workers and they find joy in running,” assistant cross country coach Tim Dressler said. “The kids love the feeling of working hard and seeing the accomplishments that come from hard work.”

Dressler, Taft’s new athletic director who has been track and field and cross country coach along with wife, Rebecca, is helping new coach Calvin Alsleben along the running routes this season. He said he expects Gile, a sophomore, and Herver, a junior, to lead the team across the finish line.

“Kendal is a young returning runner with great potential. He is a hard worker with potential to have great success this year,” Dressler said. “Sarahi is a returning athlete who leaves it all out on the course. She is a strong track runner and it transfers over on crosscountry courses.”

Among the new faces expected to contribute in a big way for the Tigers will be junior Grant Blodgette.

“He shows great potential in long distance,” Dressler said. “He ran track for the first time last year and has found a new joy in running.”

Blodgette ran his first distance race in Portland this summer and it inspired him to join the cross country team, Dressler said.

“Grant is a fearless athlete with potential to be a competitive runner,” he said.

Dressler emphasized that cross-country team scores are determined by the combination of times among runners, so each athlete’s ability contributes to the team’s overall strength.

Being young and short on participants will likely play a key role in scoring this season, but that’s not entirely discouraging, he said.

“I am very excited to

watch the cross country season progress as I see the joy and excitement our runners find in running,” Dressler said. “It is hard to find athletes who get excited to work hard and be willing to push their bodies to feel uncomfortable. We are a small team, but every athlete on the team pushes their bodies to new limits on a daily basis. I see great potential for the future of the program.”

Tigers out to put streak in past JIM FOSSUM The News Guard

The Streak.

Get used to hearing about it.

The Taft High volleyball team has.

And will ‘til it ends.

Coach Frank Napoleon will be the happiest person of all when – and if – it comes to an end when his team takes the court for the upcoming season, which begins Wednesday, Sept. 4, in a nonconference match at Yamhill-Carlton.

Taft has lost 41 matches in a row dating to a victory over Class 4A La Pine of the Sky Em Conference on Oct. 2, 2010. Its league losing streak extends much longer – almost six years, to Oct. 18, 2007 –when the Tigers defeated Sweet Home as a member of the now-defunct Valco Conference.

Returning players Taylor Adams, BillyAnn Stempel, Katie McCardell and Kelsey Wilkinson hope to do something about that.

With two players transferring, but with junior Kendra Knudson in tow to help

replace them, the Tigers will have their work cut out for them when they attempt to start a streak of another kind this season. Taft won just four of 51 games while going 0-17 last season.

“We have a good core of players who are working hard to bring Taft volleyball back to its winning ways,” said Napoleon, who coached the team to its last successful stint before losing became the norm before his return last season as coach. “Their experience will help in developing the new and younger players.

The team goal is to play good and competitive volleyball and earn a league win.”

Deception and communication in the passing game intended to put the opposition out of position and on the defensive will be key to Taft’s offense this season, Napoleon said.

“We will need to work on our passing game so our offense can be successful,” he said. “Katie, BillyAnn and Kelsey have been hitting the ball very well. Taylor and Kendra have been improv-

ing a lot in that area also.”

Stempel and Wilkinson have been particularly effective in setting the ball, Napoleon said, and McCardell, the team’s tallest player, has been stellar on the defensive end, particularly in blocking.

Taft opens its home sea-

son Friday, Sept. 6, against Gladstone.

“We had a good match with them at the Junction City tournament last year,” Napoleon said. “We are looking forward to playing them.”

And bringing The Streak to an end.

second half,” he said. “Our feet were noticeably lighter than the other team’s. That’s what we have stressed from Day One. Hopefully, that’s something we can build on.”

Tyler Fisher said the collarbone injury to his cousin, Rylan, perhaps sparked the team to the win.

“It put us in a different mindset because we knew we had to step up and play harder,” he said.

Steere said he benefitted from Lahti’s ability to scramble and buy time for him to get open.

“It’s really nice to get a win early,” he said, “especially for a young team as we move on and try to put the pieces together.”

The Tigers return to action in another nonleague road game, at 7 p.m. Friday, Sept. 6, at Seaside (KCBHAM, 1400), which opened its season Friday with a 46-0 road victory over Warrenton.

“They’re a good team and we won’t be able to make mistakes like we did last game and expect to win,” Mick said. “Hopefully, we can meet that challenge.”

to clean things up and have to meet their level of competition,” he said. “I mean, up front they were playing pretty hard and they were quite a bit bigger than us, so we have got to play a bit bigger up front all the time.

We’re a small team and we have to be able to meet their level of intensity and be able to give it all we got.”

Mick said he was pleased with the play of Lahti and Steere in their transition in positions.

“They were both successful in their roles,” he said. “Seth was able to help us move the ball and Pete did a great job distributing.”

Mick said fitness played a key role in the Tigers’ second-half surge.

sons as assistant head coach and offensive coordinator at Reynolds High School in Troutdale.

“It’s great to get a win, but we have a lot of stuff to clean up,” Mick said on Monday. “They did some things that were difficult for us to defend and we killed ourselves at times. We won’t be able to do that in a lot of games we play.”

Lahti said he felt comfortable in the pocket — while he was able to manage to stay there.

“I’ve been a quarterback since eighth grade, so I had a little jitters but got comfortable after the first quarter,” he said.

Taft fell behind 9-6 at halftime after Steere scored from about 10 yards out on a pass from Lahti on the Tigers’ second possession before scoring again on a conversion try after one of Tyler Fisher’s two TD grabs, one from 10 yards and another from 30. The Tigers took the lead for good with less than five minutes to play.

“They had a couple of drives after that where we had to hold them off,” Mick said. “We were a different team in the second half. We came together and made a lot less mistakes. The kids did a really good job of kind of wrenching it down a little and meeting expectations that we set about getting to your spots and not making mistakes.”

Mick said his halftime encouragement centered on concentrating on playing harder than the Rangers and executing the fundamentals.

47 passes for 314 yards and three touchdowns in his high school quarterbacking debut to lead Taft to the nonconference road win.

“It was really a good team effort,” Lahti, a junior who started at safety last season, said. “I mean I wouldn’t have gotten the passing if the line hadn’t blocked for me and the receivers didn’t catch all the balls.”

Senior Seth Steere, last season’s starting QB, caught a touchdown pass and 2-point conversion, while sophomore wide receiver Tyler Fisher, subbing for injured cousin Rylan Fisher, caught two touchdown passes in the win over the Rangers of the Class 4A TriValley Conference.

The victory came in Mick’s high school head coaching debut after he was hired to replace Perry Herbst as coach following three sea-

By Ken McCormack

Mushrooms out of sight Every fall I think of mushrooms.

They pop up after heavy rains. And one of my key memories is of hunting chanterelles.

I am not encouraging anyone to go willy-nilly after wild mushrooms.

There is a chanterelle lookalike, called the Jack-O-Lantern, that can make you sick.

There is also a false morel that is toxic.

One group of mushrooms, Amanitas, includes the “destroying angel” and “death cap.” Their names alone give you the idea — vomiting, diarrhea, jaundice, kidney failure, liver deterioration, convulsions, death.

A few years ago, three botany professors, visiting from Japan — mushroom specialists, yet — were rushed to the hospital in need of liver transplants. So there you are! Some of the world’s greatest are fooled.

That said, sharks kill more people than mushrooms, and most people experience mushrooms safely as gourmet food. Some exotic mushrooms, of course, are quite expensive. Morels, for instance, have gone for as much as $90 a pound. Truffles are the most expensive food in the world.

Chanterelles are among the most desirable. Like many mushrooms, they are so embedded in the environment they are difficult to grow commercially. They pretty much have to be searched out in the wild.

Harvesting them is a multimilliondollar business.

I like common cultivated “button” mushrooms found in markets.

Portobellos, grilled over charcoal with asparagus, onions, tomatoes and corn on the cob, can make my summer. (A lot of folks don’t know how delicious grilled veggies are!)

I recently started growing shiitake and oyster mushrooms on a log — mainly to learn more about them.

They are delicious — and healthy.

The Chinese use shiitakes to improve circulation, cure colds and shrink tumors. Oyster mushrooms control cholesterol and blood pressure and can halt the growth of cancer.

Over the centuries, mushrooms have gotten bad press and been associated with witches, potions and magic spells.

Some cause visions Oyster mushrooms — as Carlos Castaneda described so well in his books about Don Juan.

Psychedelic psilocybin mushrooms, which grow around here, might have been behind the revolution of the 1960s. Aldous Huxley said they opened “doors of perception,” and Terrence McKenna called them the “food of the gods.” McKenna argued their ingestion around 10,000 BCE marked the beginning of modern religion.

But a few months ago I picked up a book called “Mycelium Running”

by Paul Stamets that makes what I’ve said so far superficial.

Stamets thinks mushrooms might save the world. They are nature’s conscience, ever maintaining balance and justice. I would have dismissed Stamets as some kind of nut, but he turns out to be respected in the scientific community (and recently featured in “Discover” magazine).

What fascinates Stamets are not the mushrooms, which we see above the earth, but their out-of-sight maze of thin, string-like roots, called mycelium, beneath the earth (turn over a log and you usually can see them).

The buttons cast spores to start new growth. But the vast living web beneath communicates with the environment as it weaves its way through the entire landscape unseen. It distributes nutrients and can devour toxins.

Mycelia can expand through thousands of acres. One honey mushroom in Eastern Oregon, the largest living organism on earth, covers more than 2,400 acres and is more than 2,200 years old.

Stamets think fungi have a consciousness — more complex than advanced computers — that informs and balances the environment. When you take a step into the woods, mycelia for up to 300 miles away become aware of your presence.

This is hard to digest — not at all like a mere chanterelle.

The allure of the Yaquina Head Lighthouse JEREMY C. RUARK The News Guard

It is likely Lincoln County’s tallest manmade tourist attraction. Standing 93 feet tall at the westernmost point of the basalt headland, the Yaquina Head Lighthouse has been a bright beacon of the night, guiding ships and their supplies along the West Coast since the light was first lit on Aug. 20, 1873. It is the second oldest continuously operating lighthouse in the state.

Each year, approximately 350,000 people visit the lighthouse south of Lincoln City.

“People come with anticipation to view our lighthouse, their individual reasons depend upon personal lighthouse history and experience,” said Roy Simpson, Bureau of Land Management (BLM) education specialist. “They specifically look for the beauty

The BLM manages the Yaquina Head Lighthouse that still acts as a beacon for sailors and fishermen as well as a tourist destination.

“It is a commissioned lighthouse, one of three on the West

Coast still functioning as aids to navigation,” said Simpson. “With the use of GPS, lighthouses are now backup systems that are expensive to maintain and not really needed. Most fishermen I talk to still appreciate and use the lighthouses to navigate. Probably the real draw, though, is tourism; a historical landmark and a beacon.”

Simpson said lighthouses have attracted people since the first one was built, the Tower of the Pharos or Tower of Alexandria, circa 300 BC. “Lighthouses are used in literature, art, music and folklore, mostly described in an inspirational way,” said Simpson. “Then, there See LIGHTHOUSE, Page B3

Lighthouse From page B1

is the pure beauty of lighthouses with backgrounds of pristine and mysterious coastal scenes.”

For Simpson, the intrigue of Yaquina Lighthouse and its history is especially appealing.

“Growing up, there were always pictures, literature and movies that included lighthouses, often luring me with an intriguing tale of mystery,” he said. “Visiting lighthouses throughout my youth, I always cherished the scenic beauty, but never set foot inside one. I never dreamed that I would become a lighthouse keeper.”

Simpson said working at Yaquina Head has opened up a rich history, culture and beauty for him.

“What interests me most is about what life was like for the keepers and their families,” he said. “I am always fascinated by the many stories that are representative of this specific time, as well as those that are universal, connecting to our personal modern lives.”

When the lighthouse was constructed in 1872, the children of lighthouse keepers and lighthouse visitors were not permitted to climb the 114 stairs in the tower to the watch room because the U.S. Lighthouse Service feared they would trip and fall on the steep stairs or squeeze between the posts of the handrails.

The Yaquina Head Lighthouse retains its historic stairs and handrails, so safety of children is still a concern. Today, children must be at least 42 inches tall to climb the stairs. Additionally, adults must accompany and assist children ascending the lighthouse tower.

The offshore islands are a year-round refuge for harbor seals and a springsummer home for thousands of nesting

Tours of the Yaquina Head Lighthouse are conducted by guides dressed in period clothing. seabirds. Gray whales can be spotted during their annual migrations to Mexico (late fall-early winter) and Alaska (late winter-early spring).

During the summer months, some gray whales take the opportunity to feed in the shallow waters around the headland.

Work to maintain the historic lighthouse will continue.

“As far as future projects or construction to the lighthouse, we hope to replace the windows in the tower, repaint the lighthouse, hopefully, next year, but no other site construction projects planned,” said Simpson.

The lighthouse at Yaquina Head is available for outside viewing anytime the park is open. It is open for limited interior tours every day from noon to 4 p.m. except Wednesdays, when it is closed for maintenance. Limited tour pass (approximately 16 people per tour) are distributed at the Interpretive Center on a first-come, first-served basis starting at 10 a.m., free with park admission. Park admission is $7 per car, $3 for motorcycles and free for federal pass holders, bicyclists and walk-ins.

In construing this notice, the masculine gender includes the feminine and the neuter, the singular includes the plural, the word “grantor” includes any successor in interest to the grantor as well as any other person owing an obligation, the performance of which is secured by said trust deed, and the words “trustee” and “beneficiary” include their respective successors in interest, if any. Anyone having any objection to the sale on any grounds whatsoever will be afforded an opportunity to be heard as to those objections if they bring a lawsuit to restrain the same. NOTICE TO RESIDENTIAL TENANTS: The property in which you are living is in foreclosure. A foreclosure sale is scheduled for December 6, 2013.

The date of this sale may be postponed. Unless the lender who is foreclosing on this property is paid before the sale date, the foreclosure will go through and someone new will own this property. After the sale, the new owner is required to provide you with contact information and notice that the sale took place. The following information applies

to you only if you are a bona fide tenant occupying and renting this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement.

The information does not apply to you if you own this property or if you are not a bona fide residential tenant. If the foreclosure sale goes through, the new owner will have the right to require you to move out.

Before the new owner can require you to move, the new owner must provide you with written notice that specifies the date by which you must move out. If you do not leave before the move-out date, the new owner can have the sheriff remove you from the property after a court hearing. You will receive notice of the court hearing. PROTECTION FROM EVICTION IF YOU ARE A BONA FIDE TENANT OCCUPYING AND RENTING THIS PROPERTY AS A RESIDENTIAL DWELLING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO CONTINUE LIVING IN THIS PROPERTY AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE FOR: • THE REMAINDER OF YOUR FIXED TERM LEASE, IF YOU HAVE A FIXED TERM LEASE; • AT LEAST 90 DAYS FROM THE DATE YOU ARE GIVEN A WRITTEN TERMINATION NOTICE. If the new owner wants to move in and use this property as a primary residence, the new owner can give you written notice and require you to move out after 90 days, even though you have a fixed term lease with more than 90 days left. You must be provided with at least 90 days’ written notice after the foreclosure sale before you can be required to move. A bona fide tenant is a residential tenant who is not the borrower (property owner) or a child, spouse or parent of the borrower, and whose rental agreement: • Is the result of an arm’s-length transaction; • Requires the payment of rent that is not

substantially less than fair market rent for the property, unless the rent is reduced or subsidized due to a federal, state or local subsidy; and • Was entered into prior to the date of the foreclosure sale.

ABOUT YOUR TENANCY BETWEEN NOW AND THE FORECLOSURE SALE: RENT YOU SHOULD CONTINUE TO PAY RENT TO YOUR LANDLORD UNTIL THE PROPERTY IS SOLD OR UNTIL A COURT TELLS YOU OTHERWISE. IF YOU DO NOT PAY RENT, YOU CAN BE EVICTED. BE SURE TO KEEP PROOF OF ANY PAYMENTS YOU MAKE. SECURITY DEPOSIT You may apply your security deposit and any rent you paid in advance against the current rent you owe your landlord as provided in ORS 90.367. To do this, you must notify your landlord in writing that you want to subtract the amount of your security deposit or prepaid rent from you rent payment.

You may do this only for the rent you owe your current landlord. If you do this, you must do so before the foreclosure sale. The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale is not responsible to you for any deposit or prepaid rent you paid to your landlord.

ABOUT YOUR TENANCY AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE The new owner that buys this property at the foreclosure sale may be willing to allow you to stay as a tenant instead of requiring you to move out after 90 days or at the end of your fixed term lease. After the sale, you should receive a written notice informing you that the sale took place and giving you the new owner’s name and contact information. You should contact the new owner if you would like to stay. If the new owner accepts rent from you, signs a new residential rental agreement with you or does not notify you in

writing within 30 days after the date of the foreclosure sale that you must move out, the new owner becomes your new landlord and must maintain the property. Otherwise: • You do not owe rent; • The new owner is not your landlord and is not responsible for maintaining the property on your behalf; and • You must move out by the date the new owner specifies in a notice to you. The new owner may offer to pay your moving expenses and any other costs or amounts you and the new owner agree on in exchange for your agreement to leave the premises in less than 90 days or before your fixed term lease expires.

You should speak with a lawyer to fully understand your rights before making any decisions regarding your tenancy. IT IS UNLAWFUL FOR ANY PERSON TO TRY TO FORCE YOU TO LEAVE YOUR DWELLING UNIT WITHOUT FIRST GIVING YOU WRITTEN NOTICE AND GOING TO COURT TO EVICT YOU. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS, YOU MAY WISH TO CONSULT A LAWYER. If you believe you need legal assistance, contact the Oregon State Bar at 800-452-7636 and ask for the lawyer referral service. If you do not have enough money to pay a lawyer and are otherwise eligible, you may be able to receive legal assistance for free.
