Something Fun

Up, up and . . . Butte Creek students reflect on balloon launch lessons Editor’s Note: This story is written by the Butte Creek High Altitude Balloon Team.

Silverton High will launch a weather balloon as part of a NASA program during the Aug. 21 solar eclipse.

pounds and be able to include a few different pieces of equipment like the GoPro, air pressure measurement device, a thermometer, and a bag full of ingredients for ice cream. After we found out what we needed to do we decided to make different payloads and vote on them. When everyone finished we voted on our favorite with the most usability. The one we voted on will be going 9,000-20,000 ft. on our launch date, and hold all of our supplies.

On Aug. 21, a total solar eclipse will be passing over Silverton. A solar eclipse happens when the Moon moves in between the Earth and the Sun. In doing so it creates a path of darkness, called the “Path of Totality.” When you look up at the eclipse, it can still be super bright so make sure you wear your safety glasses!

This is a very rare event, truly a once in a lifetime opportunity.

Butte Creek HAB Team working with Silverton High prepares for launch.

We are serving as a practice launch for the Silverton High School’s launch for the solar eclipse. Our job was to design and build a “payload” or container that will take flight, that is attached to the balloon.

When designing the payload we had to keep in mind all of the experiments and data that we wanted to collect.

When we send up the Balloon we will be collecting a variety of data. One of the

things we will be looking at is temperature.

We are measuring the temperature so we can see how it changes at varying altitudes.

We are also measuring air pressure. We are measuring air pressure so we can see how it varies at different altitudes as well.

Measuring these variables will teach us about our atmosphere, and how common things change the further up we measure.

will be sending an insect up too, in order to see how it reacts to the effects of high altitudes.

Another experiment we will be conducting is attempting to make ice cream by sending the ingredients up with the payload. We

We will be recording the entire flight of the balloon using a GoPro camera, so we can experience the ascent and descent from a different point of view. With the footage, we will get a once in a lifetime sight of the troposphere.

With this project we have learned to trust everyone in order to finish the job because if only one person is trusted, we are not using everyone’s talents. When only one person is coming up with the ideas, often people will start arguing about how they want their payload to be. We are all grateful to be working with Silverton High School and this was our opportunity to work with them. And honestly, if we hadn’t cooperated with each other, we wouldn’t have made our launch date.

This has been a huge learning experience so far, and we are all so thankful for this opportunity!

Principal named

Wade Lockett to take over at Silverton High

By James Day

The Lockett File

Wade Lockett will be the principal at Silverton High School this fall.

Age: 41

Hometown: Stayton

Lockett, 41, has served as the school’s assistant principal/athletic director during the 2016-17 school year. He replaces Justin Lieuallen, who served one year in the position.

“Mr. Lockett lets his students and colleagues know that they are his highest priority,” said Silver Falls School District Superintendent Andy Bellando. “He has strong skills in building and monitoring relations, he understands the importance of school tradition, and he creates a school culture that is welcoming and supportive of all students.”

Lockett, who briefly attended Silverton during his high school years, came to the district after 12 years as a teacher, coach, athletic director and administrator at Sandy High.

“This past year serving as assistant

“I’m looking forward to strengthening our team partnerships, building on student success and enhancing the culture at our school.”

Lockett will be the third principal at the high school in three years, and Bellando has assigned Assistant Superintendent Dandy Stevens to mentor and support Lockett during the transition.

“I thought I would need some support,” Lockett said, “and this is a great plan, quite honestly. You need all the help you can get. There are things I can do, things (Assistant Principal) Jodi Drescher can do,

Lockett, who has been busy this spring filling coaching vacancies now must look to replace himself as athletic director.

Lieuallen, meanwhile, said that he “greatly appreciated my time and experiences at Silverton High School.” He said that he “will sadly miss the staff, students and families… and looks forward to supporting the school as we transition to new leadership.” Lieuallen said that he is pursuing opportunities that he is not in a position to announce.

Bellando said that Lieuallen, who came to the district from McNary High in Keizer, “helped us move forward in teaching and learning practices, technology access, CTE efforts (and) data analysis. He developed positive relationships with our standings and made an important impact on their individual growth.”

“All our new principals are provided a mentor and additional support,” he said. “Using the temporary assignment of a part-time district administrator as a mentor is less common. In this case, the selection teams and I felt that more direct support for Mr. Lockett is an important addition.”

Taking action

Silverton Opportunity working to increase leadership diversity

By Steve Ritchie The Silverton Opportunity Political Action Committee was officially formed in early March, but its genesis was the November election day rally at Silverton High School that left some students feeling harassed and brought Silverton unwanted national attention.

Naseem Rakha, who is the mother of a high school student, was concerned about the uproar at school on election day and felt uneasy about what might happen the next day, the day after the election.

At 12:30 a.m. on election night she posted a message on Facebook saying she would be at the high school at 7:30 a.m. “to make sure that kids were getting into school safely without being harassed or intimidated,” and invited others to join her. She didn’t really think her post would have much effect and thought she would likely be the only one there in the morning.

“The way a lot of people are trying to reclaim their power and their sense of belonging to a community is to be active locally. People want to be engaged.”

Naseem Rakha, Silverton Opportunity behold, we had a group of people who were saying, ‘we can’t have this.’”

But Rakha was delighted to see five other women at the school who had seen the post. And not just five women, but five women she had never met before.

Rakha said the conversations that started that morning snowballed into discussions, meetings, making personal connections, and, eventually, starting a political action committee that would take an active role in supporting three candidates – Jennifer Traeger, Michelle Stone Finicle and Shelly Nealon – in May’s school board election. The core group of a dozen people recruited family, friends, and others to join in advocating for their school board candidates.

“When I heard about the bullying incident (on election day) at the school, I thought this cannot go on. We can’t have kids in school who are scared. And here, lo and

“We did a very good job getting the word out,” Rakha said. “We knocked on over 2,000 doors. We made phone calls... the best way to have people mark a ballot in your

Mandy Petrik, Silverton Opportunity treasurer, said that a couple of issues they raised in the campaign particularly resonated with voters. One was the fact that none of the current board members had direct experience in education, and the women who were running had a level of experience that impressed people. The second was the all-male composition of the board.

“It wasn’t a hard sell. Those were two issues people could really see the importance of. Having a board that represents the community should not be a partisan issue.

We saw a board that was not diverse and there were three positions up for election. We wanted to find candidates who would represent our community... not all of our candidates are Democrats and not everyone in our group (of volunteers) is a Democrat.”

With Traeger elected, Nealon holding a narrow lead, and Finicle garnering 45 percent of the vote against a well-known opponent, the group is even more energized now in its stated mission to “bring more Silverton area women into positions of leadership in our community and state, and to support women’s personal growth and development through grants and education.”

Graduation ceremonies set It’s graduation time, with an estimated 310 seniors from Silverton High and 53 seniors from Kennedy scheduled to cross the stage and receive their diplomas.

Petrik said the group understood a political action committee (PAC) might have negative connotations, but they took that step for “the ease of campaigning, better purchasing, and transparency – all contributors are listed and virtually all are local.”

Silverton’s graduation is Thursday, June 8 , 7 p.m. in the school gym. Tickets are required for gym seating, however, overflow seating with live coverage is available in the auditorium and commons.

Petrik and Rakha say Silverton Opportunity will be active in a variety of areas, not just in the political arena.

“There’s a lot of energy and excitement (in the group),” Petrik noted. “We have a scholarship (award process) coming up. And we all agree we’re not going to just be election focused. We’re really looking to increase diversity in leadership in general. That may be helping a woman start a small business, or take advantage of other leadership opportunities.”

The Class of 2017 valedictorians include Gabriela Cortes Cortes, Alyssa Eklund, Rebecca Pranger, Jack Suing, Brett Traeger and David Wright.

Salutatorians are Noe Jines Garcia and Bishop Mitchell.

“What is happening nationwide is that people are experiencing the greater levels of divisiveness,” Rakha said. “This presidential election really divided the country and made people feel powerless and angry. The way a lot of people are trying to reclaim their power and their sense of belonging to a community is to be active locally.

Rakha and Petrik readily say that Silverton Opportunity is fueled in part by a reaction to the national political scene.

My husband and I have been married for 15 years and we have 3 beautiful kids. Our youngest son has Type 1 diabetes so we are huge advocates for finding a cure. We also started Silver Falls Christian School here in Silverton this year that we are so very proud of. Whenever we have extra time, we love to travel and make memories with our children.

Traeger, Stadeli elected to school board, Nealon holds 19-vote lead

By Steve Ritchie Challengers in the May 16, 2017 Silver Falls School Board election successfully unseated at least one and possibly two incumbent board members.

While results are still unofficial and votes from some unsigned ballots will be added to the totals on May 31, Zone 4 challenger Jennifer Traeger has an insurmountable 513 vote lead over Wally Lierman. Lierman, who has served for the past 20 years on the Silver Falls School Board, is the current board chair.

In Zone 5 challenger Shelly Nealon holds a slim, 19 vote lead over Aaron Koch, who is the current vice-chair of the board. Nealon’s total is 2,004 versus Koch’s 1,985.

Ervin Stadeli, the board incumbent in Zone 2, led challenger Michelle Stone Finicle by nearly 400 votes, a lead that, like Traeger’s, appears to be safe.

Voters who forgot to sign their ballot, or whose signature did not match their registration, were able to resolve those issues through May 30 at the county elections office.

Marion County Clerk Bill Burgess said on May 23 that “ten ballots have been cleared to be counted and there could be a few more by the deadline.”

Burgess also said his office would certify the election results on or before June 5, and the results would then be

sent to the Silver Falls School District, which certifies that the winning candidates are eligible to serve.

However, if the Nealon-Koch race is decided by less than one-fifth of one percent of the votes cast in the election the result will trigger an automatic recount. The losing candidate could also request a recount, if the margin is greater than the automatic recount standard. It is unclear whether either candidate would choose to do so, if they lost. Koch said, “I haven’t even thought about it,” and Nealon declined to comment.

The newly-formed Silverton Opportunity Political Action Committee was active in the school board election, raising nearly $6,000 and recruiting volunteers for the challengers.

more people didn’t support me.”

But Lierman complimented Traeger on her campaign, saying, “I think that Jennifer ran a positive campaign. She kept it to the issues and there were no personal attacks and I appreciated that and I did the same.”

In a Facebook message, Traeger said she was honored to have won a seat on the board, and thanked Lierman for his years of service to the district schools. She also thanked her husband, children, mother and “all the many volunteers who worked tirelessly with Silverton Opportunity to get out our message about creating a responsive, thriving, and equitable school system in our district.”

The overall voter turnout rate for the Special District election in Marion County was approximately 24 percent.

The Silver Falls School Board election had significantly higher participation at 33.6 percent. Turnouts for special elections involving school board, fire districts and library boards are typically much lower than for general elections.

Asked about her priorities on the board, Traeger said, “Right now, I see an opportunity to improve school climate. At the candidate forum, a recent SHS grad raised the subject of racism. Likewise, a current SHS student recently told me a story about her younger sibling, who has autism, being treated unkindly at school because of his differences. Students don’t learn if they don’t feel safe.

Still, Lierman felt the turnout may have hurt him. He acknowledged that his two decades on the board could have been a factor in his defeat as well. “It probably worked against me to a point,” he said, “I completely understand that, but again the results of the school district are pretty outstanding right now, and I’m disappointed

“I want to have an accurate picture of school climate.

I want to be able to address issues and determine if what we are doing is working and identify resources for areas that may need shoring up. The good news is that improvements in school climate contribute to increased graduation rates which is a priority goal for the district.”

Something for the Soul

End of an era

By Nancy Jennings For 40 years, Susannah Robinson has laid solid foundations of faith for more than 300 children through the Silver Crest School Bible Release Time Program.

Inside of the quaint Chapel on the Hill Church in the Silverton hills, students from kindergarten through sixth grade have learned about the Bible through fun fellowship. Dropped off from a school bus and picked up by their parents, the children meet every Tuesday for one hour each week.

There are three requirements that need to be fulfilled before taking part in the faith-based program: Parental permission must be given, instruction must take place off school grounds and no state resources may be used.

Now Robinson is retiring. June 6 will be her last day.

“I think I will be sad because I love children,” she said.

“I will keep on praying for the program. I feel so blessed that I could do this during these past 40 years.”

(503) 967-5050 www.grubcourier.com

An “Appreciation Open House” in her honor will be held on Saturday, June 17, at the church. Director Roxanne McQuain, who teaches third and fourth graders, has known Robinson for 25 years. She hopes past students will hear about her upcoming retirement – and find a way to take part in the celebration.

Appreciation Open House Saturday, June 17, 1-4 p.m.

Chapel in the Hills, 111 Silver Falls Dr., Silverton Coffee, refreshments and an opportunity to say thank you to Susannah Robinson.

“She’s very dedicated and faithful, and the kids love her. She shares the Word of God in a way they could understand and relate to. When she said she was going to retire, I said ‘No,’” McQuain joked. “But then I said ‘Yes.’” Janet Maulding will be her replacement when the program resumes in September.

Born in Lydenburg, South Africa, Robinson, 75, said she has deep family roots there spanning about “300 years.” Her sister and brother still live there. She attended the University of Pretoria in South Africa’s capitol and earned a B.A. degree in teaching. She met her American husband, Kenneth, 82, on a blind date in 1964 during her first year of teaching.

She taught the Afrikaans language (which grew out of the Dutch language), and English as a Second Language (ESL).

The Robinsons married in 1965, had two children and

Susannah Robinson retires from Bible Release program moved to Silverton in 1972.

“We were looking for a Christian Reform Church in Salem. We talked to several teachers and they told us ‘if you want a good country school for your children, pick Silver Crest.’” She became a U.S. citizen in 1978.

The couple managed their family-run Christmas tree farm in the Silverton hills for 37 years, naming it “Kaya Entabeni,” which means “home on the mountain” in Zulu. “For two years in a row, we were able to provide a tree to the capitol building in Salem. They cut it on the farm and transported it. We were there for the opening Susannah Robinson ceremony. It was a fun time,” she said.

Their daughter, Elmarie, and son-in-law have been missionaries in Beirut, Lebanon, for the past four years.

Their son, Stephen, lives in Silverton with his 14-yearold son, Blake. Like his father before him, Blake will graduate from Silver Crest School this month. Robinson beams with pride that she could teach her own grandson from Kindergarten through fifth grade.

She said there are many pluses to teaching children at a young age. “We lay the foundation, and if they have that they can always go back to the Bible. We teach them the

basic stories so they can follow them through their lives and make their own decisions on what they want to believe.

They learn ‘If we want to pray, He’s going to listen to us.’ If our children can have that – they are going to remember those lessons,” she said.

Former Student Jessica Mageske has two sons – Caleb and Mason – attending the program. “I have many great memories of Susannah. She would come round us up from lunch recess so she could share and teach us the Word of the Bible,” she said.

for four years.

Bryan Rutschman, has been volunteering at the program off and on

“I lead the music, and teach fifth through eighth grade.

I’m very excited for her. It’s very sad that she’s leaving, but I’m also excited because it’s a passing of the torch. I work with the Christian Renewal Center and we always have people work at Bible Release,” he said.

Briefs

Safe practices outlined for debris burns Now is the time to reduce the excess vegetation around your home that could pose a wildfire threat. Keep Oregon Green, the Oregon Department of Forestry and the Oregon Office of State Fire Marshal urge you to consider chipping or recycling yard debris. If burning is the only option, follow safe burning practices.

Escaped debris burns are the leading human cause of wildfire in Oregon, particularly in the spring and fall when people think it is safe and permissible to burn. In 2016, backyard debris burns that escaped control resulted in 143 wildfires burning 145 acres at a cost of nearly $225,000 to suppress.

Follow these simple safety tips: Call before you burn -- Regulations are not the same in all areas and can vary with weather and fuel conditions. Check with your local ODF district, fire protective association, or air protection authority to learn if there are any current burning restrictions and if a permit is required.

Know the weather forecast -- Never burn on dry or windy days.

16 • June 2017

ourtownlive.com

Clear a 10-foot radius around the pile -No branches or power lines above.

Keep your burn pile small -- 4x4 feet piles are recommended. Add debris in small amounts.

Always have water and fire tools on site -- Have a charged water hose, bucket of water, and shovel and dirt nearby to extinguish the fire. Drown the pile, stir the coals, drown again, until fire is dead out.

Stay with the fire until it is completely out -- Monitoring continually from start to finish is required by state law. Go back and recheck old burn piles. They can retain heat for weeks and rekindle when the weather warms and wind begins to blow.

Never use gasoline or other accelerants to start or increase an open fire. Every year, 10 to 15 percent of burn injuries are the result of backyard debris burning.

More tips on wildfire prevention, including campfire safety, use of motorized equipment, and fire-resistant landscaping can be found on Keep Oregon Green’s website, keeporegongreen.org.

Passages

Cut out and save

Lawrence Emil Bochsler Lawrence Emil Bochsler passed away peacefully at the age of 87. Lawrence (Larry) was born in Mount Angel, Ore. to Charles and Francis Bochsler, the youngest of six children. He lived his entire life in the Silverton-Salem area, except for a brief time in Georgia during his Army service. He owned a farm in Silverton for many years.

Lawrence worked and retired as a surveyor for the Marion County Highway Department. One of his greatest joys was to take a drive on the roads in the county and recount the turns, grades and bridges he surveyed as the roads were built.

Oct. 31, 1929 – May 19, 2017 He enjoyed being outdoors, especially hunting and fishing.

He was preceded in death by his siblings – one sister and four brothers, and one grandson.

Lawrence is survived by his four children: Dan (Linda), Bernie (Regina), Susan (Brian) and Sally.

He has five grandchildren and five greatgrandchildren. The family would like to thank Davenport Place who cared for him the last three years and Serenity Hospice.

A memorial service will be scheduled at a later date.

Sports & Recreation

Going out on top Kennedy High senior Bishop Mitchell put his personal stamp on the Class 2A state track and field championships at Hayward Field in Eugene.

JFK senior Bishop Mitchell wins three events at state meet Ackermann (tied for 6th, 6-2).

Also participating were Ackermann in the discus (ninth), Hosea Catterall (10th in 1,500), Ben Willis (10th, shot put) and Colin Walker (12th, javelin).

Bishop Mitchell

Mitchell won three events – the 200, the long jump and the triple jump – and finished second in the 100 by an incredibly narrow margin. He was named 2A male athlete of the team and his 38 team points is the most in Kennedy history.

The Trojans finished with 47 points to finish fourth as a team. It was the highest finish for the Kennedy boys since the 2010 squad took third.

On day one Mitchell won the long with a leap of 22-5.5, tying the state meet record while also qualifying in the 100 and the 200.

On day two Mitchell took second to Colin Koenig of Delphian in the 100. Both athletes were officially timed in 10.98 and officials had to go to the thousands column to unknot it, with Koenig at 10.972 and Mitchell at 10.978. Both athletes fell to the track while straining to reach the finish line first, with Mitchell receiving a deep gash in his arm from a spike.

Just 30 minutes later Mitchell won the triple jump in 43-0.25, scurrying away from that event to win the 200 in 22.53.

Mitchell’s 100 and 200 times broke his own school records.

Also scoring points for the Kennedy boys were Brandon Rendon (4th in the 400, 53.89) and Jeremy Kliewer (7th, shot put

43-4.75) and the 4x100 relay team of Nick Perez, Rednon, Anthony Garcia and Christian Reyes, which ran 46.57 for sixth place.

Distance runners Kaylin Cantu and Alejandra Lopez led the Kennedy girls to a ninth-place finish, extending the Trojans’ streak of top 10 finishes to seven years.

Cantu was second in the 1,500 in a personal best 4:54.89 and took third in the 3,000 in 10:39.94, a PR and the second-best time in school history. Lopez, meanwhile, was fourth in the 1,500 (5:01.97) and the 3,000 (10:42.04). Lopez, a sophomore, improved her 3,000 time by 30 seconds in her final three meets of the season.

Also scoring for the Kennedy girls was Abby Frey (7th, javelin, 98-7), while Alyssa Ecklund took 10th in the pole vault.

Brock Rogers, meanwhile, led the way for Silverton in the Class 5A meet. Rogers won the 110 hurdles and took third in the 100 meters to lead the Foxes to a 12th-place finish.

Rogers won the hurdles in 14.47, setting a new personal best and a Silverton school record. Rogers ran 11.02 in the 100.

Rogers accounted for 16 of the Foxes’ 23.5 boys team points. Also scoring for the Foxes’ boys squad were high jumpers Coleton Myers (4th, 6-3) and Shon

Tuesday that she will play college softball at Hamline University in St. Paul, Minn.

The Kennedy baseball team, meanwhile, lost 11-4 against the Sherman-ArlingtonCondon team and ended its season 18-7.

The Foxes’ girls squad, meanwhile, scored 24 points and tied with Thurston for ninth.

Further softball action took place after Our Town’s presstime.0-1

Leading the way were the 4x100 and 4x400 relay squads, which finished fourth and sixth, respectively.

Tennis: The Silverton doubles team of Clay Martinson and Dillon Fogarty finished second at the MidWillamette district meet and advanced to the quarterfinals of the Class 5A state tournament before falling to the thirdseeded team of Natahn Liu and Jeff Wang of Crescent Valley. Martinson and Fogarty had a lot of help along the way. The Foxes, under coach Dan Miller, finished 12-3 overall and second in the Mid-Willamette with an 11-3 dual match record. Key contributors, Miller said, were the senior class of Fogarty, Cole Visser, Marcus Hemshorn, Zach Zenchenko, Koby Howell, Adam Bischoff, Jonathan Reyna, juniors Martinson, Sam Rosenblad and Ryan Ferry and freshman Isaac Milner.

Running on the short relay were Madi Arrington, Desiree Sinn, Paige Alexander and Katie Sinn, who finished in 49.78.

Running on the long relay were Addie Schmitz, Samantha Sinn, Jori Paradis and Desiree Sinn, who clocked 4:09.93.

Paradis also finished sixth in the 800 (2:23.22) and seventh in the 1,500) 4:57.48) for the Foxes girls, who also won the Mid-Willamette district competition.

Others scoring points were Savannah Reilly (5th, high jump, 5-3), Christine Bjerremand (6th, triple jump, 35-2.75) and Desiree Sinn (6th, 400, 1:00.55). In addition, Arrington was 12th in the 100 meters.

Baseball and softball: The Kennedy and Silverton softball teams both have advanced to the quarterfinals in their respective classes.

Top-ranked Kennedy downed Gaston 15-2 on May 24 in Class 2A-1A, while the No. 5 Foxes moved on in Class 5A with a 9-0 win vs. Sandy on a six-hit shutout by ace Alex Molloy, Alex Molloy who announced

Vivian Caldwell

Golf: Foxes senior Connor Jensen qualified for the Class 5A state tournament by finishing fifth in the district meet with a 27-hole score of 123. Jensen was 41st in the state tournament with a 36-hole score of 188. Both tournaments were hosted by Quail Valley Golf Course in Banks.

Roth in Asia: Former Foxes hoop standout Sam Roth is in Asia as a member of the USA Eagles basketball team that will play games against university, club and provincial teams as well as conduct camps.

Coaching whirlwind

By James Day There has been a flurry of sports activity at Silverton High in the past few weeks. And it’s not limited to the district and state competition going on in eight sports.

The Foxes have been hard at work hiring new coaches in football, boys basketball and boys soccer. Here are the changes:

Foxes engage in steady series of hires

extremely thankful for what coach Mannion set in place. He knew how to do it right, but I bring a lot to the table as well.”

“I love him to death,” said SHS athletic director Wade Lockett, who will be the principal this fall. “He’s great for the kids, he’s great for the sport. It will be great to see that youthful energy during the season.”

Boys basketball

Football John Mannion moves on to a new school in Beaverton after seven successful seasons at Silverton that included a 57-20 record and three trips to the Class 5A semifinals.

The Foxes have hired Josh Craig, an Oregon State University graduate, who is in his third year teaching English at the high school. He led the freshmen football team to an undefeated season last fall and was on the sidelines with Mannion and his other assistants on Friday nights.

“Bringing a fun, positive energy to the situation is really important,” Craig said.

“Don’t focus on anything that won’t make you a better team or a better coach. I’m

Jamie McCarty, who led Stayton High to the Class 4A finals in 2007, has taken over for Steve Roth, who led the Foxes to the 2015 Class 5A title. McCarty left coaching after that 2007 season and went into administration. He serves in the Silver Falls School District as principal for Victor Point and Evergreen.

“I knew at some point I would get back into it,” McCarty said. “It was really tough to give it up back in 2007, but I had a 7-year-old and a 3-year-old and I really wanted to put all I had into raising them and our family. Now my 7-year-old will be a senior and my 3-year-old with be an eighth-grader.

That senior is Brooke McCarty, the point guard for Silverton girls squads that have made back-to-back appearances in the state Class 5A championship game, winning it all in a 28-0 season in 2016.

“The passion for coaching basketball and teaching young men how to become better people has never left. Timing is everything, and the Silverton job opened. It was really my family that encouraged me to apply.

Once I had their support and the district’s support I was all in on pursuing becoming a head coach again.”

“Steve Roth is an amazing coach and replacing him is a tall order,” Lockett said, “but Jamie is a known commodity. We know what we’re going to get with Jamie – tough, disciplined, hard worker. There will be no ‘who is this guy period’? He’s ready to hit the ground running and serve kids really well.”

Boys soccer Kyle Calder, who led the Foxes to the round of 16 in the past two seasons, is moving to Corvallis to work on his

master’s degree at Oregon State University and coach at Crescent Valley.

Derek McElfresh, who already serves multiple roles for the district and high school, is adding boys soccer coach to his list. McElfresh has spent 11 years at the high school and coached the Foxes’ girls squad from 2006-08. He serves as district assessment and communications coordinator, manages web and Facebook operations and supervises the yearbook.

The timing was important for McElfresh.

He is just about to finish his master’s in creative writing at Seton Hall University.

“Last year the team saw some great successes and we’d like to build on that despite losing some key players to graduation,” McElfresh said. “I’d like the program to be known for an exceptional work ethic both on and off the field – that we’ll develop student-athletes who give everything they’ve got to the game and then do the same thing in the classroom the next day.”

Something To Do

Get your passport

Take a tour of the Hammer ‘N’ Ale Trail North Willamette Valley Habitat for Humanity is once again teaming up with local pubs and breweries for The House That Beer Built passport. In its first year the program raised more than $20,000 to help build homes families could afford.

This year the organization’s goal is to raise $50,000.

The map that accompanies the passport guides travelers through the eastern Willamette Valley to 25 breweries and pubs where they receive one free pint of beer or cider when they show their passport. Passports cost $25. The participating businesses donate the pints so all the proceeds go to Habitat.

Passports, valid June 1 - Aug. 31, are available at nwvhabitat.org/the-house-thatbeer-built/. Online purchase provides a ticket that can be redeemed for the passport at Seven Brides Brewing, 990 N. First St., Silverton. Passports also will be available at The Oregon Garden Brewfest June 16 - 18.

The local Habitat chapter plans to start its 45th home – this one in Silverton – the end of June. It will be for Kimberly Betker and her son Shawn. They currently rent a room in a trailer. She works for Speedco Truck Lube and Tires in Aurora. If all goes as planned, their new Silverton home will be ready for them this time next year.

Betker said this home will mean “Stability for me and my son. It is a huge blessing. To be able to have something that is mine, something that I worked for and that I can offer my son is amazing.”

Not including land cost, the construction of a Habitat home runs about $60,000. The

cost is kept low due to donated materials and volunteer labor. It takes thousands of hours to build a Habitat home and the organization welcomes community help.

DR. WATERS IS NOW SEEING PATIENTS AT CANBY CLINIC! Come visit him for a free 15 minute “Meet the Doc” and learn about the Canby Care membership program: $25-$100 a month for unlimited doctor visits.

“The camaraderie of building as a team, the satisfaction of helping turn bare land into a family home, the skills developed during a build, and the joy of watching the family receive the keys to their very own home is an extremely rewarding experience,” NWV Habitat Development Director Michele Finicle said.

Families selected for a Habitat home must put in at least 500 hours of “sweat equity” or volunteer time. The family does not receive the home for free. It is sold to them at a reduced cost so that the mortgage payment including taxes and insurance is under 30 percent of their income.

Tired of Cleaning up After Your Water?

“The family’s mortgage payment goes back into building homes for future family home builds so we can continue and advance our vision of a world where everyone has a decent place to live,” Finicle explained.

NWV Habitat is the pioneer for The House That Beer Built passport. Other branches have reached out for advice on how to implement the program.

“One of our area’s biggest assets in our rich beer history. We are also known for our community spirit... It only made sense to combine the two in the Hammer N’ Ale and Trail,” she said.

“If we can meet our goal of selling all 2,000 passports we will raise $50,000 which is nearly the entire construction cost of our next home. It will be quiet literally the House That Beer Built.”

A Grin at the End

The happiest places I know If you want to see happy people I can think of no better place to go than a graduation. Graduations are all about happy. Whether they celebrate a child’s “survival” of kindergarten, eighth grade, high school or college, every graduation is one big happy event.

So often we hear about the worst in people. A scan of Facebook – which will ultimately destroy all civilization with its fake news and fake people – shows me more vitriol than I could ever imagine. People bad mouth politicians, celebrities, strangers – whoever is unfortunate enough to come onto their radar. Looking at Facebook is like looking at the rear end of mankind.

Whether the student was valedictorian or barely squeaked through with a D-minus average, everyone is happy to see him, or her, walk across that stage and collect a diploma.

No matter what the commencement speaker pontificated on, it doesn’t matter. They could have read from the directions for microwaving a burrito and the students would be been fine with it.

A stroll around after the ceremony will reveal one Norman Rockwell moment after another – the students surrounded by various combinations of siblings, moms, dads, grandparents, friends, maybe an aunt or uncle or two.

What could be better?

I’ve been to a few graduations, mainly for our boys. But I recently attended a special graduation, one that I thought I would never see.

My wife received her master’s degree in counseling. That moment, when she walked across the stage, was the culmination of years of work, and I couldn’t have been more proud.

I used to think I worked hard, but I’m a complete slacker compared to her. Not only did she have to go to a massive number of classes and do a massive number of research papers – I reckon about a million – but she also interned for a year at the Union Gospel Mission locations in Portland and Beaverton, counseling the folks who live there.

I quit counting the number of late nights, the hours of studying. To me, it was a blur of effort by someone who felt called to help people.

After the graduation, she walked across the foyer of the auditorium and – I’m not making this up – her feet didn’t touch the ground. Her classmates’ feet didn’t touch the ground, either. The scene was one big fur ball of happiness.

FUN

LEGACY

SILVERTON

Then I go to a graduation, which is a celebration of success, knowledge, perseverance, hard work and character.

And I see students, no matter the age, who did it, who ran the race and succeeded.

And their parents are happy, their siblings and friends are happy – even their broken down old husbands are happy.

This is graduation season. Colleges, high schools and other institutions of learning are affixing their imprimatur on the latest battalions of graduates. They, in turn, will descend on the world and proceed to make it a more civil, educated and better world. They will take their places beside the rest of us, who will be rooting for them every inch of the way.

It is a special time, for special people who have accomplished special things. They have achieved an education that no one or no thing will ever take away from them.

And they have found a happy place like no other.

We’d like to thank all our runners, walkers, sponsors, volunteers and staff for helping the Fun Run remain one of Silverton’s outstanding celebrations of health, fun and community spirit. Here are the results of the 34th Annual Silverton Health Fun Run, held May 13.
