Chamber Leadership Letter From Executive Director The Greater Newport Chamber of Commerce has a diverse program of work. The economic health, vitality, livability and sustainability of our community are the foundation of our values. We provide a number of services that are a direct benefit to members and to the community as a whole, including programs such as Beautification, Young-Professionals, Ambassadors, Visitor Services, Tourism Promotion, and Hospitality. Our weekly luncheon programs provide a venue for members to network with one another while receiving information valuable to their business.

Our collaborative partnerships help shape and create a sustainable community and leverage our members' investment, bringing added value to every membership.

Our community is full of caring, creative and hard-working citizens who dedicate much time and energy volunteering with the Chamber and scores of other local non-profit organizations. We embrace and encourage these efforts and have a deep appreciation for all who serve on committees and at events-whether they are Chamber related or not.

I am grateful to be part of an organization which is such a positive force in our community, and am humbled to work with those who give their efforts to make Newport a wonderful place to live, work and play.

About the Chamber

The Greater Newport Chamber of Commerce is one of the most progressive and dynamic organizations on the Oregon Coast. Boasting over 600 member businesses and individuals, the Chamber consistently has between 15 and 20 active volunteer committees working to enhance the community and our business climate. Its mission is “to unite the efforts of the citizens in promoting civic, commercial, agricultural, tourist, marine and industrial welfare of the City of Newport and its surrounding economic area.” In short, we strive to create an environment in which our members can succeed. In so doing, we also build a stronger and healthier community.

During an average month the Greater Newport Chamber answers thousands of phone calls, greets about the same number of visitors in our office, mails out hundreds of visitor and relocation packets, responds to hundreds more via fax and e-mail, logs close to 1.5 million visits to our website, and passes along countless referrals to Chamber member businesses. All of these contacts add up to increased profits for each of our members.

Although the times are constantly changing and technological advances are continually altering the way we conduct business, the essentials of doing business will forever be the same. Face-to-face contact with your business associates and customers, developing relationships, networking with peers, and supporting those with whom you conduct commerce is precisely what doing business is all about. That’s why we sponsor a range of events, from weekly to annually, that foster fact-to-face networking and socializing, the cornerstones of collaboration and business development.

Chamber Luncheons and Ambassador Showcases occur on a weekly basis, providing venues for associating with fellow members. Members are encouraged to participate in a variety of committees, including Governmental Affairs, Seafood & Wine Festival, Ambassadors, Hospitality, Beautification and many more. Committee meetings occur monthly and are excellent ways to get involved with the community. A Business After Hours reception is held every month with the primary goal of fostering networking and socializing. Annual events that occur throughout the

year include the annual Awards Banquet, Know Your Newport, the Banquet and Balloon Auction, Scary-Okie, and of course, the Seafood & Wine Festival. “Doing Business” is what we at the Chamber are proud to promote within our membership and community!

The Chamber’s Young Professionals

The Newport Chamber’s Young Professionals, or Yo-Pros, is a group of earlier-career Chamber members who come together for civic projects, social networking events, and support of local Chamber businesses through monthly Lunch Mobs. The mission of the Young Professionals is to improve the quality of life for this group and to maintain the age demographic of Yo-Pros residing in Lincoln County.

Yo-Pros events have included an 80s Prom, a barbecue and bonfire event at Agate Beach, and trivia at the Rogue Ales Public House. The Yo-Pros also lent a hand to Lincoln County School District’s H.E.L.P (Homeless Education & Literacy Project) by baking goods for the bake sale portion of their fundraiser “Art of the Heart,” which successfully raised over $1,500 to assist homeless youth of Lincoln County. The Yo-Pros teamed up with the City of Newport, ABATE, and the local Girl Scouts to serve many of our community’s senior citizens their Thanksgiving meal. And they had a ton of fun “Bowling for Hunger,” where they knocked down pins while collecting canned goods for the local food pantry.

One of the most popular Yo-Pros events is the annual “Amazing Race,” modeled after the television show. Teams of two solve a series of clues that lead from one Newport location to another, completing challenges along the way in a race to the finish line. Past challenges have included donning an ocean survival suit (and swimming in it!), gutting fish, and slaloming on skateboards.

Many more projects and events are in store for the group. If you are interested in participating in this group please contact the Newport Chamber of Commerce at 541-265-8801, or visit our Facebook page, Young Professionals- Newport Chamber of Commerce for updates.

Credits Letter from the Editor I consider myself a lucky woman. I live in Newport. I work in Newport. My son goes to school here, I do business here, and I am surrounded by this extraordinary community every day. When it came time to produce this publication, I hoped to transmit to its readers what those of us who live and work here already know: Newport is a special place, with a magic all its own. Where else can you walk on a spectacular beach bookended by two dramatic lighthouses, hear a symphony concert, learn about the biology of an octopus, and have the best fish & chips of your life, all in a single day? Even on a typical work day, when I am too busy to go to the beach and I eat a peanut butter sandwich sitting at my computer rather than fresh fish at a local restaurant, I feel lucky to live and work here.

I hope this guide to living and doing business in Newport will entice you to consider a visit or a move here. But what’s not in this guide is just as important as what is: the warmth, creativity, energy, and compassion of the people here. You’ll have to experience those things first hand, and when you do, I’m sure you’ll want to be one of the lucky ones, too.

Enjoy!

Newport A Great place to Live and Work Geography and Climate: Newport encompasses 10.59 square miles of historic neighborhoods, scenic vistas, a deep-water port, and magnificent coastline. Of that area, 9.05 square miles is land and the rest is water, including Yaquina Bay. Newport’s share of Oregon’s 363-mile coastline is approximately 10 miles, which spans sandy beaches, rocky headlands and tide pools, and dramatic sandstone cliffs. By state law, all of this incredible coastline is in the public domain and is accessible along its entire length. Yaquina Head, at the northern end of town, is home to a majestic lighthouse, fascinating tide pools, and some of the largest summertime bird colonies in the state. This area, a major tourist draw, is managed by the federal Bureau of Land Management. Sandy and scenic Nye Beach is easily accessible and close to the shopping and restaurants of the Nye Beach neighborhood. South Beach State Park provides opportunities for surfing and long beach walks. For more details about Newport’s beaches, see page 36.

Yaquina Bay, the estuary formed where the Yaquina River meets the Pacific Ocean, is a productive ecosystem, a scenic treasure, and a critical port for fishing, tourism, and shipping. It provides a sheltered deepwater port for an active and successful commercial and recreational fishing fleet, commercial ships docking at the Port of Newport (which is working on establishing a new log exporting operation from its recently rebuilt International Terminal), NOAA and Oregon State University research vessels, and hundreds of private pleasure craft.

Newport is accessed from the north and south by U. S. Route 101, and from the east by U. S. Route 20. Communities to the north of Newport include Depoe Bay and Lincoln City; to the south are Seal Rock, Waldport, and Yachats. Toledo, OR, is 7 miles to the east of Newport on Hwy 101.

Newport is 50 miles from Corvallis, 135 miles from Portland, 84 miles from Salem, and 98 miles from Eugene.

You can’t discuss Newport’s climate without discussing rainfall. Average annual precipitation is 67.77 inches, the majority of which falls in the winter months. Because of the climate-moderating influence of the ocean, it never gets tremendously hot or cold: Summer temperatures are typically in the 60s, with rare and welcome warmer days up to about 80 degrees. In the winter it rarely freezes, and temperatures tend to bottom out in the 40s. Snow is also rare.

Summer winds often pick up mid-day, and the beach can get breezy or foggy around that time. However, there are microclimates throughout Newport where summer temperatures are generally warmer and the blanket of fog does not penetrate. Just a few blocks inland the weather can be much different than the beach. When summer winds blow from the north, it is often warm and still on Agate Beach directly to the south of Yaquina Head.

Breaks in the winter weather are frequent, and, mysteriously, we usually end up with a few gorgeous, summery days in February. Locals know that Vivian Greene got it right when she said, “Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass; it's about learning to dance in the rain. We dance, and walk, and run, and hike, and play sports in the rain here and because the temperatures are mild, we don’t mind at all.”

Newport A Great place to Live and Work Governance: What makes Newport tick The City of Newport operates under a Council-Manager form of government, a common approach to governance for smaller cities like ours. Under this structure, the City Council, elected by the citizens of the city, employs a professional City Manager to serve as the administrative head of the city. The City Manager is like the city’s CEO; he or she is responsible for implementing policies and statutes decided on by the Council.

The Newport City Council includes the Mayor and six councilors, all uncompensated volunteers, elected from the city at large. Mayoral terms are two years while Council terms are four years. At the first Council meeting of the year, the Council elects a Council President from among its membership, who presides over Council meetings (and performs other Mayoral duties) in the absence of the Mayor.

Volunteer committees appointed by the Mayor advise the Council on a number of key topics. Committees include: Planning Commission, Budget Committee, Retirement Board, Airport Committee, Library Board, Parks and Recreation Committee, Senior Advisory Committee, Destination Newport Committee, and the Pedestrian/Bicycle Committee. From time to time, the Mayor may appoint task forces or other groups to work on specific issues.

The City Council meets on the first and third Mondays of each month. Work sessions are usually held at noon, and the regular meeting is held at 6:00 P.M. City Council packets and audio files of Council meetings are posted on the city's website (newportoregon.gov/citygov/comm/cc.asp). Videotapes of City Council meetings are shown on Charter Channel 4 at 6:00 am on Tuesdays and 10:00 am on Thursdays during the second and fourth weeks of the month.

City departments and functions include Administration, Finance, Community Development, Police, Fire, Public Works, Parks and Recreation, Airport, Library, and Municipal Court. The City of Newport also owns and operates a number of community facilities, including the Public Library, Recreation Center, Municipal Pool, and the 60+ Activity Center. The city-owned Visual Arts Center and Performing Arts Center are operated by the Oregon Coast Council on the Arts.

Newport is the County Seat of Lincoln County (population: 46,151). Lincoln County is governed by a three-member paid Board of Commissioners, who are elected at-large to four-year terms. Until the November 2013 election, the position of County Commissioner was partisan, but it is now non-partisan in accordance with most other counties in Oregon. The Commissioners meet every Wednesday at 9:30 am at the Lincoln County Courthouse (agendas and minutes are all online at www.co.lincoln.or.us/board/). The County government structure includes the County Clerk’s office (responsible for running elections, issuing marriage licenses, and maintaining records), Public Works, District Attorney’s office, Health and Human Services, Parks, and more.

Meet the City Manager Spencer Nebel took the helm as City Manager of Newport in December 2013. Prior to this post, he was City Manager for the town of Sault Sainte Marie, Michigan for 21 years, and served in the same capacity for two other Michigan towns for a total of ten years before that.

Nebel has a Master’s Degree in Public Administration from Northern Michigan University. He is an International City/County Management Association (ICMA) Credentialed Manager, and received the “Excellence in Service” award from the Michigan Municipal League in 2003 and 2012.

Nebel was excited to make the big move from the Midwest to Newport, as he has two sisters living in Oregon and he and his wife often vacationed in our fair state.

His successful leadership in a town not dissimilar from Newport – a port town with a large tourist economy – has translated into equally successful leadership here

Meet the Mayor To many it might seem that art and politics have little in common. Sandra Roumagoux, painter and current Mayor of Newport, serving her second term, would disagree. Her artist’s statement on her web site says, in part, “I don’t know how to separate politics from art. Both ask something of us, something that challenges us to a responsibility. Painter or politician, we come as candidates. We want our message to resonate with the body politic, with the voters. We make promises.”

Roumagoux was born in Yakima, WA and raised on a farm in the Willamette Valley. After earning her BA and MFA at the University of Arkansas, she returned to Oregon, settling in Newport in 1985. Her work has been exhibited in a wide range of galleries and shows throughout the Pacific Northwest, and her paintings are held in the collections of Microsoft in Redmond, WA; Oregon Health Sciences University in Portland; and a range of other institutions, as well as in private collections. Roumagoux has taught painting and other art classes at institutions ranging from Portland Community College to the Massachusetts College of Art, and she held the position of Dean of Instruction at Oregon Coast Community College from 1987 (when the college was founded) until 1991. She also served on the college’s board, an elected position. Roumagoux was elected to her second two-year term as Mayor in November of 2014.

Newport: A City Rich in History If all the world’s an oyster, the City of Newport is definitely a pearl. In fact, it was the Yaquina Bay oyster beds that first attracted settlers to Newport in 1862.

Great profits were made by exporting the delicacy to San Francisco and elsewhere, and those settlers were the first to experience all the treasures the area had to offer.

Yaquina Bay was opened to white settlement in 1864.

Newport’s first tourist destination resort was built in 1866 by a forward-thinking pioneer named Sam Case.

It was Sam who named the town “Newport,” after his favorite town in Rhode Island. More resorts soon followed, paving the way for Newport’s incorporation in 1882 and establishing the community as a premier tourist destination along the Oregon coast.

Newport’s subsequent development centered around three distinct areas: The Bayfront, Nye Beach, and the Highway 101 Corridor. The tourism industry has enjoyed a long, successful history in Newport.

In the early 1900s, Nye Beach was the number one tourist attraction on the Oregon coast, offering saltwater taffy stores, concessions, agate shops and penny arcades, as well as rooming houses and resorts.

Newport’s seafood industry boomed in 1908 when electricity (and refrigeration) became available. Sam Case leaning on the lower level pillar of Ocean House.

Construction of the Yaquina Head Lighthouse helped make Yaquina Bay a favorite shipping port. The seafood industry still thrives today – Newport’s Bayfront is home to Oregon’s largest commercial fishing fleet.

The timber industry also carved a niche in Newport’s history. The area was the location of the world’s largest spruce mill built by the U.S. government to supply the airplane industry in World War I. In fact, the mill provided all the wood that went into Howard Hughes’ famous Spruce Goose aircraft.

Completed in 1936, the Yaquina Bay Bridge is perhaps the most recognizable landmark in Newport. The bridge helped the city become more cohesive and fostered growth along the Highway 101 corridor.

Today, Newport’s history is still being made. The city is a well-balanced mix of industries, including tourism, fishing, forestry and marine science. By blending the best of new and old businesses, landmarks and attractions, Newport is preserving the treasures of the Oregon coast – now and for the future. Get to know Newport!

A Doggone Good Time Brewer’s Memorial Ale Fest Newport is a dog-friendly town year round with miles of sandy beaches perfect for a walk or playing fetch in the shoreline. During the middle of May it becomes even more welcoming of canine companions during Brewer’s Memorial Ale Fest. Grab your furry friends and come to the Rogue brewery for this dog-friendly brew festival, created in memory of Rogue Brewmaster John Maier’s faithful companion Brewer, who passed away on May 20, 2006. Brewer grew up in the brewery and eventually rose to the rank of CEO of Rogue Ales. Now, his memory is honored with a two day festival which includes over fifty microbrews, live music, doggy musical chairs, a dog wash, dog dancing and celebrity dog look-alikes (Rin-Tin-Tin, Lassie, Benji and of course, Brewer!)

The event is for people 21 and over, but dogs of any age are welcome to attend. Admission is $5 per person, good for the entire day and proceeds benefit local Oregon Coast charities. To learn more about the event or to volunteer call (503) 241-3800 and find them on Facebook: Brewer’s Memorial Ale Festival.

The Newport Seafood and Wine Festival You’re Invited to Newport’s Biggest Party The population of Newport is not quite 10,000, but on the last full weekend in February it can swell to triple that number. What brings people from far and wide to the coast in the throes of winter’s darkest days and sometimes roughest weather? The promise of great food and drink, and the biggest party Newport throws. The annual Newport Seafood and Wine Festival is a four-day signature event with a festival atmosphere where more than 150 vendors, including purveyors of seafood, craftspeople, and some 80 Northwest wineries offer their goods in a gigantic tent in South Beach adjacent to the Rogue brewery. The event is a fund-raiser for the Greater Newport Chamber of Commerce.

For most visitors, the heart of the weekend is the opportunity to sample and purchase a wide range of top-notch Northwest wines. Associated with the event is the longest continuous wine competition in the Northwest, judged by a panel of five regional wine experts. As the Northwest has grown as a wine-producing region, so has the competition. Each Seafood & Wine Festival wine vendor may enter up to three wines in the prestigious commercial competition, judging of which happens before the festival so the winners can be announced and sold at the event. An amateur competition is also held.

Paired with the excellent festival wines are unparalleled seafood offerings.

Newport is proud to be able to showcase the bounty of the Pacific that comes through its port every year. You’ll find crab, bay shrimp, oysters, salmon, albacore, and other local delicacies in abundance, as well as other types of food.

Even outside of the festival’s 50,000 ft tent there is plenty of fun to be found that weekend in Newport. The festival atmosphere spreads throughout the community, as many local businesses and organizations plan special events on the same weekend to take advantage of the crowds. Restaurants often have special menus and live music, shops will have wine sales featuring medal winners, and the local running club sponsors a 5K road race.

Oregon Coast Jazz Party Newport’s music scene heats up on the first weekend in October As the weather in Newport cools, the Newport Performing Arts Center sizzles as some of the hottest names in jazz come to jam at the Oregon Coast Jazz Party the first weekend in October. This premiere event, which celebrated its eleventh birthday in 2014, regularly sells out multiple concerts at the Newport Performing Arts Center, and infuses the whole town with the strains of jazz throughout the weekend.

As the name implies, the event is held in a “jazz party” format, in which a pool of musicians performs in different combinations in sets throughout the weekend. The principal sets are held at the Newport Performing Arts Center, with a late-night “Nightcap,” an after-party of sorts, on Friday and Saturday nights at the nearby Shilo Inn. Performers have included Jeff Hamilton (drums), Terrell Stafford (trumpet), the Clayton Brothers (John (bass), Jeff (sax) and Gerald (piano), Dave Captein (bass), Ken Peplowski (clarinet and sax), the Mel Brown quintet (featuring legendary drummer Mel Brown), Halie Loren (vocalist), and Holly Hofmann (flute), who also serves as the event’s Music Director. All of these participants are world-class musicians, who have appeared from Portland to New York to the international jazz scene; Grammy awards decorate their shelves, and headliners from the jazz, blues, and pops worlds clamor for them to play gigs.

The Oregon Coast Jazz Party was born eleven years ago as Jazz at Newport, the successor to a number of other jazz festivals held in Newport over the years. A number of satellite events are held in addition to the programs at the PAC, including jazz clinics at Newport High School and the Performing Arts Center and, in 2014, an interactive panel discussion moderated by Holly Hofmann.

The festival is a feast for the eyes as well as the ears: each year, a compelling image created by a local or regional artist is chosen to be highlighted in the marketing materials. Artists Connie Williams, Bill Kucha, Nancy Jane Reid (also the official Oregon Coast Jazz Party photographer), and Juergen Eckstein are among those whose works have served as the face of the festival.

The lineup of musicians for a given year is typically announced in early summer for the following fall. For more information about the Oregon Coast Jazz Party, go to www.coastarts.org/event-types/oregon-coast-jazz-party/. www.newportchamber.org -15

Shellfish Pleasure: The Oyster Cloyster provides gourmet treats and supports good causes Forget the pearl: the real treasure is the oyster itself, a briny, creamy morsel that instantly evokes the sea for those that consume it. At the annual Oyster Cloyster at the Oregon Coast Aquarium, attendees can sample the best creations of celebrated regional chefs using the delectable bivalve and support important local programs at the same time. This premier event is a fundraiser for two beneficiaries: The Aquarium Science degree program at Oregon Coast Community College and the Oregon Coast Aquarium.

The heart of the Oyster Cloyster is a cooking competition among the cream of the crop of local and regional chefs, typically 15 of them. They prepare the oysters however they’d like, raw or cooked, fresh or smoked, in appetizers, main dishes, or desserts (yes, really!). For visitors who don’t have time to visit every top restaurant in the area, the Oyster Cloyster offers the opportunity to sample the styles and creations of many of them at once. Past dishes have included Smoked Oyster, Wild Mushroom & White Cheddar Empanada with Tomato Gravy (from the Starfish Grill), Raw Oyster with Horseradish Sour Cream Vinaigrette (Rogue Ales), and Silverspot Ale Smoked Oysters (Pelican Pub). The dishes are evaluated by professional judges, as well as by event attendees who sample the offerings and vote on a People’s Choice Award.

While the oyster is front and center, there is plenty of food for those that don’t care for the briny bivalve, and liquid refreshments are equally outstanding.

Attendees can choose among local Rogue Ales or wines specially chosen for the event. The fabulous food and drinks are consumed in an equally fabulous venue.

Attendees will get to see more of the aquarium than most visitors, as behindthe-scenes tours are always offered.

Rounding out the evening will be live music provided by local ensembles stationed throughout the aquarium, as well as an educational station at which microscopes are set up for attendees to observe the various life stages of oysters.

More information can be found at www.oystercloyster.org.

Community Events Oregon Off-Road Coast Hills Classic Mountain Bike Race The 4th Annual Coast Hills Classic Mountain Bike Race returns to Newport, OR! On May 3rd, this race will put competitors through a grueling trek of straight up, straight down and slippery turns in the 12 mile course (a double run of 24 miles for the experts and pros) with a 1,600 elevation gain. The course varies from muddy to gravel and a lot of single track in-between.

The race is really the revival of a former race, the Ben Eder Memorial, kicked off by a local high school teacher and a number of his students, including Ben Eder. Ben and his family kept the tradition alive for a number of years until a fateful day in 2001 when Ben died in a fishing accident at the age of 21. Local volunteers now work alongside staff from the Newport Parks and Recreation Department to put the race on.

A kids’ race will be held once most racers have crossed the finish line.

This race is free and will be a short loop on a flat dirt area. There is also a timed "Grommet" Race on a modified 5 mile section of race course for kids that aren't yet ready for the full 12 mile course but have outgrown the kids’ race. Ages for this race are 8-12 years old and has a $15.00 entry fee and prizes will be awarded.

Mike Cavanaugh, Sports Coordinator for Newport Parks and Recreation, says, “All of our proceeds from the event go towards the youth scholarship fund at our recreation center.” These scholarships allow children from economically disadvantaged households the opportunity to participate in a number of youth programs put on by the City Of Newport.

Major sponsors of the Coast Hills Classic include the City of Newport Parks and Recreation, Bike Newport, the Newport News Times and many others which include Wilder, the property owners who graciously granted permission for the race course to go through their forested property.

Information about the race including registration can be found at www.CoastHillsClassic.com. Pre-registration is $45.00 and the day-of registration is $50.00. The excitement begins at 10:00am with the big line-up of competitors at the Oregon Coast Community College, Newport Campus.

26.2 Spectacular Miles Newport Marathon attracts hundreds of runners If you’re going to run more than 26 miles over a span of three hours or more, battling fatigue, thirst, and muscle cramps, it helps to have something pretty to look at along the way. The gorgeous, flat, and fast course of the Newport Marathon has been attracting hundreds of runners from far and near since its inception in 1999.

The course begins at Yaquina Bay State Park, home to one of our two lighthouses, and then wends its way through some of Newport’s most scenic neighborhoods, including oceanfront Nye Beach and the Bayfront.

It continues on the Bay Road on a flat, well-paved, wide road that runs along the edge of gorgeous Yaquina Bay. Runners will be treated to vistas of the Yaquina Bay Bridge and the bay itself, home to a wide variety of birds and other wildlife. Fishing boats and gorgeous, forested scenery complete the view. Because the course is nearly all flat, many PRs are earned here, a plus considering that the marathon is a qualifying race for the Boston Marathon. One world record was earned on the course as well: Herb Phillips of Burnaby B.C., Canada ran it in 2:47:28 in 2004, breaking the single age world record for 63 year old males.

Of course, there are other scenic, flat, and friendly marathons in the U.S. But there probably isn’t one that offers runners oyster shooters. At mile 11 and again at mile 19 (out and back on the Bay Road), runners are offered the opportunity to slurp down locally raised raw oysters at Oregon Oyster Farms. The record for oyster shooter consumption at the marathon was 80 oysters in one race, consumed by a runner in 2009! If sucking down raw oysters in the middle of a race is not for you, other great local food is offered at the finish line party, including Rogue beer and Mo’s clam chowder, two local favorites.

The event has been growing nearly every year, and registration is capped at 1,000; as many as 750 have entered in recent years. Last year’s entrants came from 29 states and Canada.

Community Neighborhoods of Newport Newport’s neighborhoods each harbor unique treasures Agate Beach explodes with natural beauty: Catch a wave, go clamming, watch spouting whales, take a long walk on a beautiful sandy beach, or visit the Yaquina Head Lighthouse. This district is also home to the Ernest Bloch House, where this well-known composer lived from 1941 to 1959.

Historic Nye Beach is Newport’s original oceanfront resort district and artists’ colony. Today, Nye Beach is a mix of historic cottages, new architecture, and eclectic shops, lodging, and restaurants.

The historic heart of the city, the Deco District contains many buildings featuring the Art Deco style. Hugging both sides of Highway 101, the Deco District is the mid-point on the ribbon of U.S. Highway 101 that connects four of Newport’s distinct districts.

Newport’s historic Bayfront is a shoreline boulevard where you’ll want to stroll along an authentic slice of the coast. The Port of Newport services Yaquina Bay, a bustling harbor, and home to one of the largest commercial fishing fleets in Oregon.

The South Beach district is filled with all things marine – the Oregon Coast Aquarium, one of the top ten aquariums in the U.S., is a favorite with all ages. South Beach is also home to the Hatfield Marine Science Center and homeport of NOAA’s Pacific fleet of research vessels.

Forever Funky: Nye Beach Offers Great Food and Shopping Locals and visitors alike love the historic Newport neighborhood of Nye Beach, with its scrumptious restaurants, stunning art galleries, and fascinating shops. Add in the amazing namesake beach, the Newport Performing Arts Center, and an endlessly fun playground at Coast Park, and there’s something in this oceanfront neighborhood for everyone.

Located on the ocean’s edge with lighthouses defining its North and South ends, Nye Beach was once a separate smaller community removed from the Bayfront. When Newport began to outgrow the Bayfront in the 1890s a wood plank road was constructed connecting the two. In the early 1900s this area was the number one tourist attraction on the coast – salt water taffy stores, concessions, agate shops and penny arcades all thrived on Nye Beach. It was also the home of many well known rooming houses and resorts. When Herbert Hoover’s stepfather, Dr. Henry J. Minthorn, built a large “sanitarium” in the area, tourists flocked in large numbers to soak in heated sea water or bask in the sun on the glassenclosed veranda.

While some chose to stay at the large resorts, others stayed in small cottages or tents. Often the women and children would spend their summers here and the men would visit by train on the weekends.

Much of the ambiance, the cottages and resorts which attracted the summer people to Nye Beach remain. And one must not forget the most

22- www.newportchamber.org

wondrous and enduring attraction, the beach!

While you can spend far more than a day exploring Nye Beach, here are some suggestions for some must-do Nye Beach activities. A great way to start your Nye Beach day is by indulging in a steaming latte and mouthwatering pastry at one of the numerous coffe shops.

Eat in or get your breakfast to go and head to the beach.

Whether you’re searching for a vacation souvenir, a wedding gift, or just a little something for yourself, you’re bound to find what you’re looking for in the shops of Nye Beach.

You will also find wines at every price point and from every corner of the world. From the Willamette Valley to Argentina to Italy and beyond, Nye Beach carries mouth-watering specialty foods such as cheeses, chocolates, and Italian pastas.

Great lunch choices are abundant in Nye Beach. You can find soups, sandwiches, burritos, and other lunchtime fare made fresh, often with local ingredients.

If you want to continue shopping after lunch, head up Coast Street.

Stunning shops are packed with treasures from around the globe, from housewares to perfume to jewelry to art. Walking into Nye Beach shops is like wandering into an exotic international bazaar.

Newport’s Historic Bayfront Food, Fun, and the Fishing Fleet Probably no coastal community in the U.S. integrates a working waterfront with a tourist destination better than Newport, where each neighborhood function flourishes and reinforces the other. The Historic Bayfront is Newport’s main working waterfront, where most of the substantial fishing fleet ties up, bringing much of their catch to the fish processing plants that line the bay side of the street. At the same time, this neighborhood is also bursting with excellent restaurants, eclectic treasure-filled shops, and engaging attractions.

Constructed in 1866, the Ocean House on Yaquina Bay was Newport’s first destination resort. Sam Case, its proprietor, named the Ocean House for a resort in Newport, Rhode Island, and it is no coincidence that Case also named Newport for his favorite town in Rhode Island. At the time of its incorporation, Newport was a small hamlet nestled in the area around the Ocean House. Near the Ocean House were several smaller resorts which attracted visitors to Yaquina Bay. Tourists, or “summer people,” most commonly traveled to Newport by train from the Willamette Valley to Yaquina City approximately three miles East of Newport on Yaquina Bay. From Yaquina City, travelers took a ferry that navigated down the Yaquina to Newport.

Large scale development of a seafood industry, which thrives to this day, did not begin until 1908 when electricity (essential for refrigeration) became available. Jetty construction and dredging, complemented by Newport’s already famous Yaquina Bay Lighthouse, made Yaquina Bay an attractive shipping port. The Bayfront remains an active working part of the community and is home to Oregon’s largest commercial fishing fleet.

Today a drive up the scenic Yaquina Bay Road is a journey back in time.

The site of the early settlements of Oysterville and Yaquina City can be seen. Also located along this road is the site of the home of Daniel Boone’s great grandson (Daniel came here in 1852). Yaquina Bay Road ends at Toledo, once the location of the world’s largest spruce mill, built by the U.S. Government to provide spruce for airplane manufacture in World War I (and which later provided all the wood that went into Howard Hughes’ infamous “Spruce Goose”).

Today’s Bayfront provides locals and tourists with great meals, views of sea lions hauled out on rocks and docks, and a range of shopping options.

Here are a few highlights to help you scratch the surface of this diverse and exciting area, but behind every shop door are more surprises, so feel free to explore!

The diverse flavors of the Bayfront pose a diner’s dilemma for every meal. Where to eat? A range of Asian flavors as well as a spectacular bay view can be found at the Noodle Café. You can choose from main dishes originating in a range of Asian countries: curries, stir fries, noodle dishes, kimchee, and pho, among others. On a cool day the pho or spicy seafood broth called jung bong both particularly hit the spot. At the opposite end of the street is the charming and cozy Coffee House, open for breakfast and lunch. While you wait for your superb coffee to brew or for your hangover-the-plate pancake or fluffy omelet to come off the griddle, you can watch the fishing fleet come and go right across the street. If you’d like your meal to be accompanied by wildlife viewing, check out Port Dock One, where the whole restaurant, but particularly the upstairs dining and lounge area (limited to those over 21), has one of the best dining views in Newport. Port Dock One’s steaks, seafood, salads, burgers, and sandwiches nearly always come with a side show of barking sea lions, who hang out on the floating docks just below. The best of the local catch can be found at Local Ocean Seafoods, which features fresh, local, creative seafood dishes of all kinds. Check out their newly-opened upstairs dining room with its spectacular view of the Bay and bridge.

There’s something for everyone in the shops of the Bayfront. Inscapes 24- www.newportchamber.org

Gallery carries a wide range of art, decorative items, furniture, jewelry, and other goods, all handmade. Some especially wonderful treasures here include turned wooden bowls, kaleidoscopes, musical instruments, art prints, and gorgeous rocking chairs. Those with a sweet tooth have multiple options, including Newport Candy Shoppe and Aunt Belinda’s Candies. At both there is a dazzling selection of creative flavors of saltwater taffy made with real egg whites rather than oil. Another gallery with a gorgeous selection of items is Oceanic Arts, which features works of local and regional artists, much of it inspired by the sea around us.

More locally-produced art can be found at Ozone Fine Art on the top floor of the Abbey Street Pier. Stop by for artist demonstrations and fabulously fun exhibit openings featuring Oregon wines. Finally, don’t miss the sights and smells of Newport Bay Candle Company. This local business pours its candles at a separate facility near the Safeway on Rte. 101, but their Bayfront retail shop shows off the best of their handmade wares, as well as soaps, jewelry, and gift items.

Down at the far end of the Bayfront you can see the vessels of Newport’s fishing fleet tied up. Interpretive signs along the Port Dock marinas explain the differences among the kinds of boats in port and tell a bit of the story of our proud fishing fleet and the types of quarry they pursue.

In the summer months you can often buy fish right off the boats here, including albacore tuna, salmon, crabs, rockfish, and lingcod. Even if you’re not in the market for something for dinner, it’s fun to walk along all of the docks and dream of the seafaring life. If you’re not content to let the commercial fishing fleet do the work for you, you can hop on a charter fishing boat, a number of which are headquartered along the Bayfront, and do the catching yourself.

Finally, a few words about those immense and loud marine mammals you can hear from all along the Bayfront, and see on the docks near Port Dock One. These are male California sea lions hauled out to take a break from their normal activities of stalking fish. While more of them hang around in the late fall and winter after the breeding season is over, you can find the older bulls here pretty much year-round. Follow the racket to the Undersea Gardens and you can look down onto the pier where these guys hang out.

Life in Newport Newport Public Library

A library is a critical institution in any community. Newport Public Library serves the community as a center for information, recreation, culture, and education. From toddlers to retirees, students to business owners, people from all segments of the community come to Newport Public Library to find practical answers, to develop talents, to stretch the imagination, and simply to enjoy the beautiful facility and its collection of local artists’ work. Newport Public Library is one of the best used libraries in Oregon.

Current technology and professional staff make the library the community gateway to a wealth of regional, national, and international information resources. In addition to a fine book collection, the library also offers video, DVDs, CDs, audio books, magazines, newspapers, large print books, and access to the internet and other electronic information sources. Through the internet the library provides catalog and full-text magazine databases wherever you are.

A full range of children’s programs, flourishing adult programs, outreach services to the elderly and homebound, and a vital volunteer program all make it clear that the library is a place for everyone. Story times for toddlers and preschoolers are offered weekly in English and Spanish.

In addition, the children’s librarian conducts extensive outreach to local preschools and elementary classrooms. A summer reading program encourages kids to continue reading when school is out, offering rewards for participation as well as a weekly outdoor performance for Photo: Courtesy Newport Public library families related to that summer’s theme. Teenagers are drawn to the monthly teen programs at the library, and adults love the regular “Literary Flicks” series of movies and the library’s book club. A critical center of community life, the library hosts meetings and community events throughout the year, from writing workshops to book lectures to computer classes.

Newport Public Library is a department of the City of Newport, an equal partner of Oceanbooks network, and an affiliate of the Lincoln County Library District. The Newport Public Library Foundation is an independent, non-profit organization promoting private donations to enhance and enrich Newport Public Library's resources and services.

The Newport Public Library is at 35 NW Nye St and newportoregon.gov/dept/lib/.

Students can complete the first two years of a bachelor’s degree at OCCC, earn an associates degree, take courses to obtain employment, prepare to start a small business, get a GED, learn English as a second language, or take courses for personal enrichment. Students may attend full or part-time and take credit and non-credit courses. Students may also take courses online or via videotape.

The Hatfield Marine Science Center is Oregon State University’s campus for research, education, and outreach in marine and coastal sciences.

Many graduate students from Oregon State University conduct lab and field work here, and HMSC offers educational opportunities for students from primary school through college. A major educational expansion of HMSC is planned for the coming years, which will allow for accommodation of 500 students per year. For more information about HMSC, see p. 56 or hmsc.oregonstate.edu.

Education Newport offers a range of educational opportunities for students from preschool-age through college and beyond.

Preschools There are a number of excellent preschools in Newport, some of which include kindergarten and early primary grades as well. Mouse Factory Cooperative Preschool, the only cooperative preschool in town, is operated out of the First Presbyterian Church.

They offer morning sessions either two or four days a week for children ages 3-5. Two Montessori schools, Newport Montessori and Nye Beach Montessori, offer preschool programs as well as kindergarten. Newport Montessori students can attend through grade 3. ABC Preschool, Coastal Kids, and Cubby Preschool (located at Newport High School and partially staffed by childhood education NHS students) are also excellent options. Finally, there is a federal Head Start program in Newport.

Grades K-12 Newport is a part of the Lincoln County School District (LCSD). LCSD serves about 5,200 students in kindergarten through 12th grade from all areas of the county along a 55-mile strip of the central Oregon coast.

The district is comprised of 10 regular schools and four public charter schools, with a total of 500 employees, all dedicated to providing a comprehensive education for every single student.

Schools in Newport are undergoing a realignment to accommodate full-day kindergarten starting in the 2015-2016 school year. Beginning in the fall of 2015, kindergarten through second grade students in Newport attend Yaquina View School. Third through fifth grade students will atten Sam Case School. Sixth through eighth graders will attend Newport Middle School, and Newport High School houses ninth through twelfth graders.

All Newport schools place an emphasis on technology, and many teachers incorporate it into their daily instruction. Students in Newport are fortunate to have a wealth of natural resources to study as an extension of their classrooms. The Pacific Ocean, Yaquina Bay, and Siuslaw National Forest are only a few of the natural resources that are

used by the school district to explore marine science, forestry, tourism, fisheries, and other related subjects. In addition, the Hatfield Marine Science Center, the Oregon Coast Aquarium, and the home port of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s West Coast research vessels offer “living classrooms” that contribute to the district’s goal of producing the most ocean-literate students in the nation.

Newport High School offers the prestigious and challenging International Baccalaureate (IB) program, one of the smallest schools in the nation to do so. IB is a rigorous and comprehensive pre-university course of study for high school juniors and seniors. IB diploma graduates are welcomed by the world's leading universities, and are often offered exemptions from required classes. Students can choose individual IB classes, or complete the demanding IB diploma program.

Our Living School Our Living School is a small, alternative private school offering elementary education. At Our Living School, children learn the intricacies of working within a community, the value of environmental stewardship, and the power of their own mind. Through a solid grasp of scientific thinking and compassionate reasoning, Our Living School cultivates and nourishes life-long learners, creative problem-solvers, and empathetic citizens.

Volunteerism in Newport One of the main energy sources that powers Newport is the spirit of volunteerism that pervades the city. City committees that advise the City Council on everything from development of bike trails to reviewing city audits to developing library policies are comprised of 100% volunteers. In addition, volunteers apply their skills and energy to guiding visitors through the Oregon Coast Aquarium’s exhibits, raising funds for high school sports teams, operating the Newport Symphony Orchestra, driving Meals on Wheels routes, and every other type of community service you can think of. Any amount of time you have to offer, whether it’s an hour a month or multiple days every week, will be most appreciated at most community institutions. Lincoln County schools, the Newport Public Library, the Performing Arts Center, Samaritan Pacific Communities Hospital, and the Newport Police Department will all be happy to put volunteers to work. One great way to find out who needs volunteers is by going to the web site of the Retired & Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) of Linn, Benton, and Lincoln Counties (rsvpoflbl.org) and reviewing their list; most of these volunteer opportunities are not just for those of retirement age.

Good Medicine: Health Care in Newport One important measure of a community is how well it takes care of its citizens, in sickness and in health. Newport is lucky to have not only an excellent hospital, but a range of other health care facilities and options to choose from.

Samaritan Pacific Communities Hospital is the major health care center in the city. Located just off Highway 101 overlooking the Yaquina Bay Bridge, SPCH Hospital has been meeting the health care needs of area residents since 1952. Currently, the hospital is a 25-bed critical access hospital, with 462 employees, 119 of whom are nurses, and 65 volunteers.

SPCH is fully accredited by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Health Care Organizations (JCAHO). The hospital offers a complete range of health and medical services including 24-hour, physicianstaffed emergency care, a full-service medical laboratory, physical therapy and rehabilitation, outpatient surgery and single-room maternity care.

Of significant benefit to area residents are the more than 82 practitioners and 8 outlying clinics comprising the medical staff at Samaritan Pacific Communities Hospital. This group of physicians represents a variety of medical specialties to help meet the health care needs of the diverse Oregon Coast population. Hospital staff and physicians work hard to deliver their services in an environment of human sensitivity, technical excellence and fiscal responsibility.

SPCH offers comprehensive medical imaging and laboratory testing services, as well as units focused on diabetes education, hospice services, nutritional counseling, and respiratory services. Samaritan clinics in Newport provide specialized care in the areas of obstetrics and gynecology, hematology and oncology, kidney conditions, occupational medicine, orthopedics, ENT and allergy specialists, internal medicine, and surgery.

The hospital provides emergency care round the clock, and an urgent care walk-in clinic is located in the building as well (hours are M-F 9:00 am to 6:30 pm and Saturday 10 am to 4 pm).

Some major health care functions in Newport are provided outside of the Samaritan umbrella. For example, the main pediatric practice in town, Coastal Pediatrics, is operated independently of SPCH, although it is located right next door to the hospital and the clinic’s doctors have SPCH privileges.

There are approximately 25 dental clinics in Newport, including denturists and orthodontists. For eye care, residents have about a halfdozen practices from which to choose.

Patients in need of physical therapy or rehabilitation will find many options in town. In addition to Samaritan-based practices, there are about a half-dozen physical and occupational therapists in Newport, and many more in the surrounding Lincoln County towns. About a dozen chiropractic offices can also be found in Newport.

Those seeking alternative medicine approaches will also find many options in Newport. There are four clinics that provide acupuncture services and three naturopaths practicing in town. A wide selection of massage therapists also practice here, including at a number of small day spas.

Mental health care is also available, some through Samaritan, some through the Lincoln County Health Department, and some in private practice. These services include addiction counseling; individual, group, and family counseling; and treatment and support for those with persistent and severe mental illness. The county health department is 30- www.newportchamber.org

an excellent clearinghouse for all of the counseling and social support services available in Newport and the rest of Lincoln County.

The Lincoln County Health Department provides a number of other health-related services that contribute significantly to wellness in the community. These services include a comprehensive public health program including flu vaccinations, a communicable diseases unit, care for those with HIV/AIDS, and family home visits for first-time parents.

The county also provides a number of education programs, including a tobacco prevention program.

The Portland VA Medical Center maintains a small clinic in Newport, providing primary care, laboratory services, and tele-mental health services for those eligible for veterans’ benefits.

Finally, we have ample access to pharmacies, including large outlets like Walmart, Fred Meyer, and Walgreens, as well as multiple options for the purchase of medical equipment and supplies.

Of course, prevention is often the best medicine, and Newport provides all of the components necessary to live as healthy a lifestyle as possible: great trails for walking, hiking, and biking; mild weather allowing outdoor activities for most of the year; the city Recreation Center, municipal pool, and two private gyms for workouts of all kinds; access to a range of primary care physicians; and healthy food options at our many grocery stores and the local Farmers’ Market.

Living United States Coast Guard

Life in Newport

Story and Photo: Phillip Swett

While Newport’s maritime industries and heritage are almost taken as a matter of course today, it took considerable effort to make small Yaquina Bay a safe haven for seafarers. First came the Yaquina Bay lighthouse to mark the narrow entrance in 1871, then construction of the substantial north and south jetties in the late 1880s and early 1890s to establish a better channel. Those improved the ability of fishermen and sailors to leave and return to port safely, but could provide no succor in times of maritime distress. That took the establishment of the U.S. Lifesaving Service (a founding component of the U.S. Coast Guard) station in South Beach in 1896. Ever since then, the Coast Guard Station Yaquina Bay has played a key role in assisting those in need along this stretch of the central Oregon coast.

To keep that in perspective, Bosun’s Mate 1st Class Adam Johnson said the Yaquina Bay bar (the natural deposition of materials at the mouth of the river) is considered the second worst for vessels in the United States, after that off the mouth of the much larger Columbia River. If you need proof, buy a copy of the fundraising video available at the station; you’ll be impressed.

Under the current command of Community Officer Robert Ornetas, the roughly 50 regulars and 12 reservists of the station conduct about 200 search and rescue and/or towing operations annually, from vessels that are lost in fog, out of power or fuel, taking on water, on fire, or that have medical emergencies.

To perform its duties, Station Yaquina Bay is homeport to two 47’ motor life boats, both a decade old and capable of speeds in excess of 20 knots, with a towing capacity of 150 tons, and a range of 50 nautical miles; a 25

She has a range of 150 nautical miles, the ability to tow vessels up to 750 tons, and can still handle 35’ seas and 30’ breaking surf, with the best of the lot. All but the smallest vessels are self-righting, with everyone aboard strapped in when underway in heavy seas.

Recreation Recreational Fishing: A Reel Adventure in Newport

Outdoor

If you’re a real DIY kind of person, you’d rather catch your own fish than buy it at the market or order it in a restaurant. In Newport you can catch your own salmon, crabs, clams, tuna, rockfish, and many other tasty treats. No boat? No problem. It’s easy to reserve yourself a spot on one of Newport’s many charter boats, and chase after delicious quarry from rockfish to salmon to tuna.

While charter fishing trips go out year-round, summer weather is usually a bit more calm and comfortable for heading out to sea. Depending on the target species, trips can range from three hours for bay crabbing trips to more than 24 hours for offshore tuna in mid-summer and fall.

No experience is required; in fact, beginners are sometimes the captain’s favorite clients. Here are some basics to keep in mind.

There are seasons and limited windows to fish for some species, so not every fish is available for the taking all the time. For all of the details on the types and lengths of trips available at a given time, be sure to call the charter company. Bottomfishing trips, which focus on rockfish and lingcod, generally leave the dock year-round. Most outfits run five-hour and ten-hour bottomfish trips, depending on the time of year and how far offshore you’re interested in venturing. The five-hour bottomfishing trips in particular are extremely family-friendly. In season, you can often find 8- or 10-hour combination trips that will take you fishing for both bottomfish and salmon. One-day licenses that will cover you for the trip are generally available from the charter companies; boats will inform you of limits on various species.

Salmon is the Pacific Northwest’s iconic fish, and by many accounts they are bouncing back from some tough years. Summer salmon trips target either coho (mid-June to mid-August) or Chinook (June – October). You will need licenses and tags for salmon fishing, but both are available from the charter companies (usually annual licenses are not available for purchase, though).

Halibut “openers,” short windows of time during which anglers are allowed to fish for these giant flatfish, are scattered throughout the year, and vary depending on assessments of how many fish there are. They are fished until a set total quota is reached, so later halibut dates might not be fished at all.

Albacore tuna usually show up in June or July and stick around close enough to shore to catch until mid-fall. These gorgeous and delicious fighting fish are caught with either rod and reel or a hand-line. Albacore is a delicacy, whether barbecued, canned, or eaten raw, sushi-style.

Newport Tradewinds runs a marathon tuna trip: 33 hours at sea to cover multiple bouts of fishing.

Finally, if it’s crab you’re after, you can catch them, too, either on a dedicated bay crabbing trip (for example, Captain’s Reel offers a threehour crabbing trip) or by adding on ocean crabbing with most of the other types of trips mentioned here, for an extra fee. An Oregon shellfish license is required for crabbing (available from the charter companies), and again, note there are fishery restrictions that the boats will enforce onboard.

Weather can be stunningly variable at sea. Even the rare warm summer day at the beach can translate into cool temperatures offshore, so dress in layers and in appropriate footwear. Coffee is usually part of most charter deals, but bring your own food and drink. Most charters offer fish cleaning and crab cooking services back at the dock (for a fee). For prices and more specifics, get in touch with the charter companies directly – they’re happy to help find a trip that’s right for you.

Always remember, while Newport-based charter boats are usually highly successful, it’s called “fishing,” not “catching.” Just being out on the ocean can be treat enough. Charter captains can’t wait to share the experience with passengers.

For Charter Fishing, Marine Tours, and Guide Service see page 73 under charter services.

Take a Hike! Lace Up Your Boots and Get onto the Beaten Path Newport is a beautiful place to hike, especially for families – the terrain is varied and generally not too challenging, the views are spectacular, and a latte or ice cream cone is never very far away. Just to the north and south of the city (see listings) are some more challenging, longer hikes that would appeal to more serious trekkers. Here are some short hikes within city limits Yaquina Head Outstanding Natural Area The federal Bureau of Land Management operates the Yaquina Head Outstanding Natural Area, a spit of land at the north end of town that juts out dramatically into the Pacific, punctuated at the end by the stately and beautiful Yaquina Head Lighthouse. There are a number of short walks and hikes that can be strung together for a complete tour of the headland.

A hike up Communications Hill (so-called because the Coast Guard maintains communications equipment at the top of the hill) affords some of the best views in Newport. The trail is less than a mile long, moderately steep in places, and traverses a typical shore pine and Sitka spruce forest.

The views to the north and south are stunning, and wildlife sightings – grey whales, bald eagles, gorgeous formations of pelicans – are common.

Hikers can use the series of paved and well-maintained pedestrian paths to connect to the other short hikes and walks at Yaquina Head. Salal Hill, further out the headland, is a shorter but steeper trail, which also affords outstanding views from the peak. Spring wildflowers can be spectacular here. While descending stairs doesn’t usually count as taking a hike, the staircases down to Cobble Beach are a bit steep, with a great beach as the payoff at the bottom. The large offshore rock islands often provide haulout areas for harbor seals, and at low tide the tide pools here are some of the best (and most accessible) around.

term plans are to extend these trails even further through South Beach, eventually hooking into a trail planned to run all the way from Corvallis to the coast.

South Beach State Park South Beach State Park maintains a range of trails, from a flat, paved bike trail perfect for bikes, scooters, strollers, and rollerblades, to wooded trails that can provide quite a workout. Skirting the edge of the park’s campground is the Cooper Ridge Nature Trail, a 1.75-mile loop through forest and meadow habitats. Terrain is dirt and sand, and there are a few moderately challenging hills. The South Jetty Trail, a paved ADA-accessible path, is a one-mile link between the park and the South Jetty recreation area. The Old Jetty Trail is another wooded alternative, which basically parallels the paved trail but goes through the shore pine forest and dune habitats of the park. Wildlife is abundant in South Beach, especially in the early morning hours – keep your eyes open for deer, birds, and even the occasional coyote.

Beaver Creek State Natural Area Eight miles south of Newport is the relatively new Beaver Creek State Natural Area, which is laced with gorgeous upland meadow trails. Trails start from the Visitor Center, or from a less well-marked parking area on South Beaver Creek Road (ask at the Visitor Center for directions). Because much of the park is in low-lying wetlands, trail access can be limited, or covered in mud and water, during some months so the southern access point allows for a less mucky start to your hike. Hikers will almost surely see evidence of the elk herds that frequent the park, and perhaps signs of other wildlife – bears, raptors, deer, river otters, and even cougar and bobcat – as well.

Yaquina Bay Beach Trail This short and scenic trail leaves from Naterlin Drive right near the Coast Guard Station. It follows the north shore of Yaquina Bay and leads onto the north jetty at the mouth of the bay, and from there to the beach in Yaquina Bay State Park.

Mike Miller Park and Connected Trails Mike Miller Park in South Beach is a gorgeous one-mile loop trail that traverses a range of habitats, from an old spruce/fir forest of towering trees to freshwater wetlands. In recent years the Mike Miller loop has been linked to new trails near the Newport campus of Oregon Coast Community College; the trail system can be accessed either from the playground at the Wilder community abutting the college campus or from the Mike Miller trailhead.

If you park at the Mike Miller trailhead off of Rte. 101, you can pick up an interpretive brochure and follow the numbered markers along the trail to learn more about this iconic Pacific Northwest ecosystem. In spring, wild rhododendrons tower overhead and salmonberries and other typical native vegetation in every shade of green crowd the view. In most years ospreys nest in snags in the park’s 40 acres, and other bird life is abundant as well. An observation deck at the park’s wetland area brings hikers closer to the newts, turtles, and ducks that are often found in the water.

Terrain is mostly dirt with some gravel and a few small bridges crossing over creeks or particularly wet areas.

About half-way around the loop you will come to signs indicating side trails to the community college and the Emery Trail, named after the generous landowner who allows the use of some of his property for the extensions of these trails. The community college trail links up to the campus, emerging at a lovely playground maintained jointly by the Wilder housing development and the City of Newport.

Beachy Keen: The beaches are the main event in Newport Visitors come to Newport for many reasons – restaurants, attractions like the Oregon Coast Aquarium, fishing opportunities, the shops of the Bayfront and Nye Beach – but everyone knows that the main attraction is the beach.

Locals love it. Visitors love it. We all walk and surf and fly kites and romp and picnic and dig and beachcomb and escape there. But which beach to choose for a given outing? Here’s an insider’s guide to the beaches of Newport, each a bit different from the next, and each absolutely stunning.

the beach is right next to Spencer Creek, which winds through the state park and empties onto the sand here. What really sets Beverly Beach apart is its rich trove of fossils that erodes out of the cliffs lining the beach. Winter storms eat away at the cliffs and then deposit these ancient treasures on the beach. You can find clams and other shellfish from the Astoria formation, about 18 million years old, as well as rarer finds like whale vertebrae, crabs, and shark teeth.

Beverly Beach Access: from the Beverly Beach State Park Day Use Area, easy access over mostly level ground and a few rocks Amenities: Campground, bathrooms, picnic tables, water fountain, nature center (at state park) Don’t Miss: Fossils!

At the northern end of Newport is Beverly Beach, accessed easily at the day use area of Beverly Beach State Park at 123rd Street. The entrance to

Moolack Beach Access: Multiple fairly steep trails from the official parking area can be slippery – take care scrambling down Amenities: None Don’t Miss: The opportunity for a long walk with a view to Yaquina Head Just south of Beverly Beach and north of Yaquina Head is Moolack Beach.

Moolack is also a good place for fossil- and agate-hunting, and a surfing destination. The best thing about this beach is that it is typically uncrowded, yet provides a wide, flat beach for kite flying, sand castle building, Frisbee tossing, and other typical beach activities.

Cobble Beach at Yaquina Head Access: Stairs, stairs, stairs Amenities: Bathrooms at the Visitor Center and near the lighthouse, interpretive displays and small gift shop at the Visitor Center Don’t Miss: Tide pools Among the treasures of the Yaquina Head Outstanding Natural Area is Cobble Beach, where the beach consists of largish volcanic black stones rather than sand. Past the cobbles are some of the best tide pools in the area, accessible at low tide and home to a near-infinite variety of sea anemones, sea stars, urchins, nudibranchs, crabs, mussels, and other critters. The towering offshore rocks here provide habitat for nesting birds in the summer time, and seals frequently haul out and rest on the smaller offshore rocks and also on the shore at the north end of the beach.

Agate Beach Access: Three access points along the length of the beach: the Agate Beach Wayside on Oceanview Drive, the Lucky Gap trail with parking at the south end of the Roby’s Furniture parking lot on Hwy 101, and down a very steep and sometimes-slippery trail near the north end of the beach – park in the small lot across from the Lighthouse Diner or on the road and walk down toward the beach. At all access points a creek usually needs to be crossed to get to the surf line – usually at the Wayside it’s either small enough to jump across or someone has laid wood across it.

Amenities: Bathrooms and picnic tables at the Agate Beach Wayside; none at other access points Don’t Miss: Surfers near Yaquina Head While it’s actually not easy to find an agate on Agate Beach these days, the delights of this beach are innumerable. When the summer wind comes from the north, Yaquina Head provides a wind break at the north end of the beach, allowing it to really heat up at that spot even when people are shivering in their fleeces a short distance to the south. One of the most popular activities at this beach is surfing, particularly at the north end of the beach. The rocks near the headland, exposed at low tide, hide crabs and other animals seemingly placed there just to delight children with buckets.

Nye Beach Access: The main access to Nye Beach is at the Nye Beach Turnaround in the neighborhood of Nye Beach. Access is very easy – just a very short ramp from the parking lot and you’re on the sand.

Amenities: Bathrooms and picnic tables at the Turnaround, as well as a foot wash.

Don’t Miss: Jumpoff Joe Nye Beach is probably the most visited beach in Newport, as it is easily accessible, adjacent to the funky neighborhood of Nye Beach, and wide and lovely. To the north of the turnaround is the remains of Jumpoff Joe, what used to be a sandstone sea stack that has eroded away. One great thing about Nye Beach is its proximity to the shops and restaurants of Nye Beach.

Coffee, pastries, ice cream, and more can all be purchased and snacked on at the beach.

Yaquina Bay State Park Access: Stairs, some paved walkway, and trails through the dunes Amenities: Bathrooms and picnic area near the parking lot, Yaquina Bay Lighthouse, Fishermen’s Memorial Sanctuary Don’t Miss: Walking through the dunes The next beach access as you head south is at Yaquina Bay State Park, home of the Yaquina Bay Lighthouse. From the main parking area you can look down on the entrance to Yaquina Bay and watch the boats come and go, and get a great view of the Yaquina Bay Bridge as well. Unique to this beach is the walk through the dunes behind the beach that you can take in order to access the shore. You can also walk part of the way out onto the rock jetty on the north side of the bay entrance. The bay entrance itself is a constant source of entertainment, with boats coming and going, seals and sea lions foraging, and a wide array of marine birds diving, swimming, and swooping.

South Beach Access: Easy access over a dune trail at the day use area of South Beach

State Park south of the bridge Amenities: Bathrooms and picnic tables, campground, paved and unpaved nature trails behind the dunes Don’t Miss: Walking and biking trails South Beach is perfect for walking, surfing, boogie boarding, and just about any other beach activity you like. To the north of the beach access is the south jetty at the entrance to Yaquina Bay. The special bonus at South Beach is the set of trails, both paved and unpaved, that parallels the shore just behind the dunes. These trails, which include a great paved path perfect for family bike rides and the Cooper Ridge hiking trail, connect South Beach State Park with the South Jetty recreation area, as well as with the campground within the park. One side trail is an ADA-accessible interpretive boardwalk trail that provides information about the natural history of the area.

Ona Beach Access: Short walk from parking lot (8 miles south of Newport) over the bridge spanning Beaver Creek, easy footing to get onto the beach Amenities: Bathrooms and picnic tables near the parking area, boat launch across Rte. 101 Don’t Miss: Beaver Creek Ona Beach State Park, now called Brian Booth State Park, is the gateway to activities of both salt and freshwater. From the park’s beach access you can walk far to the south. When winter storms scour sand off the beach, gorgeous rock formations are revealed. Beaver Creek spills out onto the beach here, flowing under a picturesque bridge and over rocks to empty into the ocean. Slightly further upstream the creek provides excellent opportunities for canoeing and kayaking through productive and spectacular wetlands teeming with life.

Thank you, Newport!

Paddlers’ Paradise Kayak tour explores Beaver Creek wetlands

By Larry Coonrod

Editor’s Note: Paddling enthusiasts can kayak locally in Yaquina Bay, in the ocean, and in local rivers. The most popular spot for canoeing and kayaking is Beaver Creek, which empties into the ocean at Brian Booth State Park (also called Ona Beach State Park) south of Newport. Enjoy Larry Coonrod’s description of a South Beach State Park ranger-led Beaver Creek paddle. For information about current kayaking tours, make sure to navigate to the Brian Booth State Park web site via the Oregon State Parks web site at www.oregonstateparks.org.

The bald eagle perched a top a fog-enshrouded snag overlooking Beaver Creek gave the eight would-be kayakers their first indication that they were about to leave the ordinary behind.

If the noble bird had a sense a humor, he was no doubt enjoying the sight of the novices nervously milling about trying to adjust foot pegs and absorb a three-minute course in kayaking from tour guides Ray and Joann Fowels.

"The cardinal rule of kayaking is to stay centered," Ray advised.

If any of the adults were having second thoughts about paddling the narrow craft away from the safety of the boat launch, the sight of a grinning 10-yearold Lauren Markley of Salem - eager to get started - made them reconsider.

Sponsored by South Beach State Park, the kayak tour program uses relatively stable recreational kayaks manufactured by the Old Town Canoe Company in Maine. And while an experienced kayaker might find them a bit tame, they're perfect for novices.

"These are very safe and easy to keep upright. They're like a boat on the bottom," Ray assured the group. “Nobody’s going to get wet."

According to Joanne, in the couple's six-years of guiding tours on Beaver Creek, they've only had a handful of clients find themselves sans kayak and swimming, most the result of horseplay.

"We went three years without anyone falling out," Joanne said.

With the preliminary instructions out of the way, the cavalcade of sleek bright red, yellow, and blue craft began their journey upstream with Joanne in the lead and Ray trailing behind, like a couple of geese keeping watch over their young flock.

"You're in a true sanctuary here," Joanne said as the tour group headed upstream.

The Wetland Conservancy owns and manages 80 acres along Beaver Creek wetland complex (designated one of Oregon's greatest wetlands) upstream of Ona Beach State Park. In 2007, the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department purchased an additional 318 acres, establishing the Beaver Creek State Natural Area. The OPRD plans to open the area up for recreational use in 2010.

Beaver Creek is home to coho salmon, cutthroat trout, steelhead, beaver, river otters, bears, bald eagles, blue and green herons, and numerous migratory birds.

"A coastal marsh is like a biological supermarket," Joanne tells the group. "It's a virtual smorgasbord for these animals."

The marsh acts much like a human kidney in filtering out pollution. Its muddy bottom is a giant sponge.

True to its name, the creek is home to a thriving colony of beavers, although at one time they were nearly wiped out by trapping, Joanne said. With all the kayaks, "logged up" in a tight cluster along the sedge grass covered bank, she pointed out a beaver lodge and explained how the beavers build a multilevel structure by first surveying the site and then gathering the building materials, much like a human construction crew might.

Another resident of Beaver Creek, nutria, are more recent transplants. After trapping nearly depleted the beaver population in the late 1800s and early 1900s, fur traders brought the quick-breeding nutria from South America to replace beaver pelts.

Nutria's feeding habits and burrowing cause erosion, and can devastate 38- www.newportchamber.org

marshland.

"I like to tell people that beavers are nature's engineers, and nutria are the demolition experts," Joanne said.

They might be considered a "large rat" by some; nevertheless, an adult nutria and its offspring thrilled the kayakers by staying put in a canopy of grass as they took turns paddling to within a few feet and taking pictures.

The park's Thursday evening tours produce more sightings of the nocturnal beavers, Joanne said.

Before moving along on the tour, Joanne elicited some good-natured groans with a few corny wildlife jokes told in her soft Texan accent.

"How can you tell a bald eagle in the wild? It combs its hair over to one side (Get it?)," and "Why do seagulls live on the sea and not the bay? Otherwise they'd be Baygulls."

By the time the tour group turned around about a mile from the starting point, the novice kayakers looked like veterans, feeling confident enough to spread out and explore along the banks by themselves.

Before ending the tour, the Smiths had one final exercise for the group: closing their eyes and drifting along for one minute just listening. Nature is anything but quiet along Beaver Creek. The call of a blue heron, the chirping of song birds, and the sound of raindrops splattering on the water made it easy to forget that just around the corner cars and trucks were whizzing by on Highway 101.

Before they departed on that same highway back to the less serene sounds of modern civilization, Ray left everyone with a bit of wisdom about the future of wild lands: "The Lord created the world for us, but he also made us the stewards."

Thanks to its large range of habitats, from coastal forests to beaches to wetlands, Newport is a birders’ paradise. Here is a brief guide to some of the prime birding spots around town and what you can find at each.

Beverly Beach State Park Great examples of shorebirds and other marine species can be observed at the expansive beach here (and at Newport’s other beaches as well). Look for Western and Hermann’s Gulls, Common Loons, and Brown Pelicans flying by, and sanderling, whimbrel, and Western Sandpiper on the sand. In the park and campground, you can find Pileated Woodpecker, Band-tailed Pigeon, Swainson’s Thrush, Pacific Slope Flycatchers, Brown Creepers, and Wilson’s Warbler.

Yaquina Head This site has been designated a Globally Important Bird Area. From April through July, thousands of Common Murres and many cormorants, both Brandts and Pelagic, will be seen on nearby offshore rocks. On the cliffs gulls, Pigeon Guillemots, and Pelagic Cormorants maintain precarious nests. Bald Eagles are a common summertime sight, as they prey on the young seabirds on the offshore rocks. Other summer birds include Black Oystercatchers, Western Gulls, and Brown Pelicans. Winter birds include Red-necked and Western Grebe and Common Loon. If you’re very lucky, you could spot an occasional Marbled Murrelet or Peregrine Falcon.

Bay Road Yaquina Bay Road, extending from the Bayfront neighborhood to Toledo, is a great place to spot a range of birds year-round. According to the web site of the Oregon Coast Birding Trail (www.oregoncoastbirding.com), “…birding is very good along the entire length of Yaquina Bay Road and best from fall to spring. Stop at pullouts along the way to view loons, grebes, ducks and gulls.”

Other species that frequent the bay here include brandt, Great Blue Heron, Great Egret, Green Heron, and Snowy Egret. Winter birds include Dunlin, Western and Least Sandpiper, and Black Turnstones. One must-stop spot on the road is Sally’s Bend, near the LNG tanks (1702 Yaquina Bay Road). “Walk west of the road to view terrestrial birds like Western Meadowlark, Northern Shrike, Killdeer, and Wilson’s Snipe, American Pipit and Western Kingbird in spring,” advises the Oregon Coast Birding Trail web site. Other likelies are Bald Eagles and a range of waterbirds in spring (Canvasback, American Wigeon, scoters, mergansers, and grebes among them). Belted Kingfishers are often found on the powerlines along the bay side of the road.

Estuary Trail The Estuary Trail traverses the edge of Yaquina Bay on the campus of the Hatfield Marine Science Center in South Beach. Over 3,000 feet of trail offer year-round public access to the estuary, and interpretive signs are placed along the trail, with an observation shelter provided approximately midway.

Parts of the trail and facilities are accessible to the physically challenged.

This trail is a feast at any time of year. In winter, “check bushes and pines for Palm Warbler and the fields for Savannah Sparrow. Fall brings Western Meadowlark. These grounds are well known for vagrants during migration like Sage Thrasher, Mountain Bluebird, and Say’s Phoebe. On the mudflats in fall, waterfowl are abundant… Peak shorebird migration is late April; expect Dunlin, Western and Least Sandpiper, Semipalmated Plover, Whimbrel, and Long-billed Curlew,” advises the Oregon Coast Birding Trail. Birds of prey, including Bald Eagle, Merlin, and White-tailed Kite are seen here as well.

South Jetty Many habitats come together at the South Jetty at the mouth of Yaquina Bay and the trails that extend from there south to South Beach State Park.

Along the South Jetty Road, look for loons, cormorants, Pigeon Guillemots, and Harlequin Ducks. The coastal dunes along the paved walking trail offer the opportunity to spy a range of species, including swallows, flycatchers, and Cedar Waxwing. Some winters, Snowy Owls have been found in the dunes.

For more detailed information about birding spots and species, go to the Oregon Coast Birding Trail website at www.oregoncoastbirding.com.

Biking Around Newport Whether you’ve got a sleek, speedy road bike, a tricked-out mountain bike, or a touring bike with a tinkly bell and a wicker basket on the handlebars, there’s a bike ride for you in and around Newport. Bike rides in the Newport area include road rides with and without killer hills, beautiful paved bike paths, and gnarly trails that include everything from gravel road to single track.

A lovely, flat, family-friendly ride is found at South Beach State Park, where a one-mile paved trail runs from the day use area parking lot to the South Jetty parking area. The trail is protected from the summer wind, but the ocean is always nearby: multiple beach access points and an interpretive boardwalk along the trail can make for great side trips. This ride can hook up to the paved trails along the south side of Yaquina Bay all the way to the NOAA facility, and even out to Idaho Point on flat, wide roads along the bay and King Slough.

If you want to get out into the woods on mountain bike trails, there are a number of options. A gravel and dirt road extends from Big Creek Park along the shore of Newport’s drinking water reservoir, an out-and-back ride of a little less than 4 miles (please respect private property, which begins at the yellow gate at the end of the road). You can add about 1.5 miles on to this ride by riding on dirt, gravel, and boardwalks on the Ocean to Bay trail from Big Creek Park to Agate Beach and back. More serious mountain bikers can apply for a free permit to ride a web of trails accessible behind Oregon Coast Community College in South Beach. These trails are the site of the annual Coast Hills Classic mountain bike race that takes place in muddy May. There are also extensive trails at Olalla Lake in nearby Toledo.

Road riders will enjoy the Lighthouse to Lighthouse ride, which follows a significant stretch of oceanfront, punctuated at either end by a spectacular lighthouse. This moderately challenging route runs the length of the Nye Beach neighborhood, offering a good workout along with its gorgeous views. A short stretch of Highway 101 is necessary on this ride. Keep in mind that the Lighthouse Drive piece of the ride, which extends from Highway 101 to the Yaquina Head Lighthouse, is only accessible during the operating hours of the Yaquina Head Outstanding Natural Area. Another great road option is the Bay Road between Newport’s Bayfront and the city of Toledo.

Wide, flat, and low-traffic for most of the ride, this trek takes riders from the scent of salt-water taffy and the bustle of the Bayfront’s restaurants and shops, through the quiet stillness of Yaquina Bay’s backwaters, to the industrial waterfront of Toledo.

In need of a bike rental, gear, or repairs? Head to Bike Newport, Newport’s excellent full-service bike shop, on 6th Street.

Recreation Keep your Fitness on Track at the Newport Recreation Center

Indoor & Outdoor

By Nancy Steinberg The City of Newport operates the Newport Recreation Center, a 45,000-square foot municipal facility that has what you need to work up a sweat. You can walk or run on the indoor track, work out on the weight machines, play basketball, or join a fitness class. More details are included below.

Gyms The Rec Center has two gyms: a full-size gym for basketball, volleyball, and other sports, and a smaller multi-purpose space used for rollerblading, indoor soccer, gymnastics, toddler play equipment during “Indoor Park” times, and other activities. Both are available to use on a drop-in basis if they are not scheduled for a formal activity. Come shoot some hoops, practice your roller-blading, or bring the little ones to Indoor Park where slides, tunnels, balls, and ride-in cars are provided.

Cardio/Strength Training Area Forty-nine strength training and cardio machines are stationed upstairs in the workout area, including elliptical machines, treadmills, recumbent bikes, upright bikes, a stair climber, rowing machines, and strengthtraining machines. You can also use a large selection of free weights, benches, fitness balls, kettle bells, mats, and other equipment. Certified Personal Trainers are available upon request. A circuit training room and a two-lane track for walking and running are also available.

Other Rec Center Facilities The Rec Center also houses two mirrored dance studio/aerobics rooms as well as classrooms and meeting rooms. All of these spaces are available to rent for classes, meetings, birthday parties, and other gatherings. Lockers, showers, and changing rooms are also provided for your convenience.

Classes and Activities Many classes and activities offered at the Rec Center, some of which are free for annual pass holders; others welcome drop-in participants with varying drop-in fees. Join the fun in a zumba, stretching, pilates, or cardio fitness class. Pickle ball (a fast-paced racquet sport) welcomes players at a variety of times depending on skill level. Other sports include men’s basketball and co-ed volleyball.

Municipal Pool The Newport pool is located near Sam Case Primary School on NE 12th St. (a brand new municipal aquatic center will be built adjacent to the Rec Center beginning in summer of 2015 and is slated to open in 2016).

The public is welcome to join in lap swimming, recreational swims, and classes like water aerobics at the pool for a drop-in fee.

New Pool on the Horizon The City of Newport maintains a municipal swimming pool, where locals and visitors can swim laps, conduct water therapy, take aqua aerobics classes, and splash during open rec swims. The Newport Swim Team and the Newport High School Swim Team also practice here and host meets. As busy and critical as this facility is, it is aging, and not likely to last much longer.

In November of 2013, residents of Newport approved a bond measure that will collect funds for the construction of a brand new municipal pool to be constructed adjacent to the Newport Rec Center. The new facility will include an eightlane lap pool, a warm-water therapy pool, a shallow toddler play area, and a therapeutic hot tub. Construction will be complete some time in 2016.

Doing Business in Newport

Doing Business Still as alluring as ever, Newport, Oregon is not only a great place to live and raise a family, it's a fertile ground for business growth and prosperity.

The city is located in Lincoln County, along Oregon's Central Coast, at the confluence of the Yaquina River and the Pacific Ocean. The beauty of the Pacific Ocean and the scenic coastal beaches naturally attracts people to this port city of 10,000. Newport has been named as one of the “Paradise Found: 12 Great Towns You Could Call Home� in Pacific Northwest Magazine.

The Pacific Ocean, award winning sandy ocean beaches, abundant wilderness areas, and national forests are a few of the amenities that the area offers. The 992 square miles of Lincoln County also encompass mountainous, wooded terrain, steep ridges, and winding inland valleys along with level river flood plains and ocean beaches. The elevation of Newport ranges from sea level to 300 feet, with a mean elevation of 75 feet.

Newport is situated in the central region of Lincoln County which consists of the cities of Depoe Bay, Lincoln City, Newport, Siletz, Toledo, Waldport and Yachats, and the communities of Chitwood, Seal Rock and Tidewater.

Newport, the county seat of Lincoln County, is the business center of the county. Most commercial/retail development is on the bayfront and along Highway 101, which bisects the city. Newport is a transportation hub, with state highway routes to the north, south, and east, an airport, and an excellent port with a deep-water international terminal.

The city is a progressively growing community committed to preserving the treasures of the Oregon coast while creating a successful business environment and keeping businesses viable and competitive. The steady population growth, breathtaking environment, great quality of life and continued economic vitality of the Newport area has made it an ideal location for business to thrive.

Commercial Fishing A Major Newport Industry Information courtesy of Fishermen Involved in Natural Energy (FINE), finecommittee.org Commercial fishing in Oregon is a significant contributor to Oregon’s coastal and state economy. Approximately 250 commercial fishing vessels are home-ported in Lincoln County, the majority of which are based in Newport (some are also based in Depoe Bay and Toledo). There are at least double that number of commercial fishing vessels in the county, representing vessels that are home-ported elsewhere but spend time fishing off of Lincoln County. Vessels range in size from 18 to 126 ft, and are valued at $5000 to $3 million. A few of these vessels are distant water vessels that spend the majority of their fishing year in Alaska, returning to Lincoln County for maintenance and repairs and, in some cases, to participate in the Dungeness crab and whiting fisheries.

Most of the commercial fishing fleet fishes locally and sells their catch to buyers in this area. While the majority of their fishing effort and subsequent harvest occurs outside of state waters, significant production in crab, salmon, and groundfish occurs within three miles of the coast (state waters) in some years. The majority of the sport-fishing activities also take place within three miles.

During the 2003-2006 time period, the ex-vessel value (price paid to fishermen) for commercial landings of fish and shellfish in Lincoln County totaled $113,219,443, or an average of $28,304,861 per year.

In 2012 in Newport alone, ex-vessel value of commercial landings was $37.2 million. Dungeness crab was the highest value species harvested, averaging $11,798,048 per year. The ex-vessel dollars are multiplied into the community several times over. In 2006 Dungeness crab was the top species landed in Oregon by value. Whiting was the top volume species averaging 72,772,189 pounds per year. Distant water commercial fishing vessels, from 75 to 126 ft in length, fishing primarily in Alaska, contribute an additional $32 million per year to the Lincoln County economy. In 2013 Newport ranked 13th in the nation for seafood landings by weight and 19th by income.

Major Fisheries and Vessel Types

by Ginny Goblirsch and Steve Theberge

Sablefish Sablefish, or black cod, are a tasty fish just gaining popularity in this country. High in oil content, sablefish make an excellent fish for smoking.

They are caught by longline, trawl, or pots. In the longline fishery, spacing for sablefish is much closer than for halibut, with hooks every 3 or 4 feet.

They are fished at 100 to 400 fathoms. Sablefish are soft mouthed and can wiggle free of hooks. They also can be consumed by bottom dwellers, so the lines are hauled after four to six hours. The crew baits the hooks, often using herring, octopus, and cod. Most sablefish are beheaded and gutted, frozen, and exported to Japanese markets.

Traps Pot fishermen use baited traps to catch Dungeness crab and sablefish (also known as black cod). Dungeness crabbing is seasonal, usually from December 1 to August 15. The majority of the catch occurs during the first two months of the season. Most vessels participate in a combination of other fisheries during various times of the year.

Crabbers are rigged with a large hydraulic block mounted just behind the pilot house used to haul in pots. Because the catch is delivered to the market live, the vessels have a circulating seawater system in their holds.

Most pots are circular, measure three to four feet across, and weigh from 75 to 120 pounds. Tunnels on opposite sides allow crabs to enter the trap, and a ring on the top gives undersized crabs an escape route. The traps are baited with herring, squid, or razor clams. A single line with usually two cylindrical plastic buoys is attached to the trap. Buoys are marked or colored to distinguish one vessel’s pots from another.

Crab boats typically have a two- to four-person crew. The crew pushes the pots over one at a time as the vessel follows a particular depth line, usually between 3 and 80 fathoms. Pots are retrieved one at a time by snagging the buoy line with a hooked pole. The line is placed in the block, which hauls the pot into the vessel. Each vessel is allowed to fish a certain maximum number of pots, each of which can hold up to 60 crabs. When the traps come up, they are emptied, the catch is sorted, and the pot is rebaited and put back out. Crab pots are checked every one to seven days, depending on fishing conditions.

Long-liners Long-lining involves using a longline (ground line) with baited hooks on leaders attached at intervals. Sablefish (black cod) and halibut are caught on longline gear. The longline is stretched over the bottom, anchored at each end, and marked by surface buoys, poles, and flags. Longline boats have a distinctive appearance. The boats have a baiting tent, shed, or table on the stern. Chutes and pulleys are visible and are used in hauling or setting out the longline. The longline or groundlines are stored in tubs.

The hooks on the longline are hung on the rim of the tub to keep them from getting tangled. The tubs on the work deck hold the ground line with the hooks placed around the rims.

Halibut Halibut are large flatfish that can grow to be as large as 500 pounds and 9 feet in length. Because Oregon is at the southern end of this species’ range, fishermen tend to catch younger fish, seldom more than 150 pounds. A halibut groundline might cover three miles with up to 800 hooks and take three hours to retrieve. The lines are set in 30 to 150 fathoms (1 fathom equals 6 feet) and soaked 6 to 12 hours before hauling.

Trawlers A trawler is a vessel that drags a funnel-shaped net through water to harvest fish or shrimp. The net is wide at the mouth and tapers back to a narrow cod end that collects the catch. The average bottom trawl opening is 40 to 60 feet wide and 8 to 10 feet tall. Bottom trawlers usually tow their nets at 1 to 2 knots on or above the ocean floor. Fishermen might tow midwater trawls faster to catch faster-swimming schooling fish.

Trawlers have a large metal trawl door that is attached to each side, or wing, on the front of the net. The water hits the doors and the pressure of the water passing over the door spreads the net open. A steel cable extends from the door to a winch just behind the pilot house. Most large trawlers have square sterns with inclined ramps and are referred to as stern trawlers. The nets are hauled aboard up the inclined ramp on the stern. Older trawlers without inclined ramps haul their nets over the sides using a haul line and a block on an overhead boom to bring in the cod end of the net.

Bottom trawlers tow the net along the ocean floor to catch fish that live on or just off the bottom. These fish include rockfish, cod, sablefish (black cod), ocean perch, flounder, and sole. Tow times can last from 30 minutes to several hours. Depths can range from 5 to 700 fathoms (a fathom equals six feet). Bottom trawlers typically fish from 1 to 40 miles offshore.

Midwater trawlers tow a net off the stern from just above the bottom to just below the surface. They harvest fish traveling in schools, such as Pacific whiting. The fishermen use electronic equipment to find and stay with the fish. One tow may yield 50 tons of fish.

Shrimpers Pacific pink shrimp are smaller than the peel-and-eat variety most people are used to. They are sometimes called popcorn or cocktail shrimp or, mistakenly, bay shrimp. Shrimp live at depths of 40 to 150 fathoms.

Shrimpers, who fish from April 1 through October 31, tow one or two small-meshed (1 1/2-inch) nets just above the ocean floor. Single-rigged shrimpers tow one net off the stern, like bottom draggers, and store the net on a stern-mounted reel. Double-rigged shrimpers tow one net off each side of the vessel. Large outriggers are lowered to a 60-degree angle to let the nets out. The nets also have chains (tickler chains) attached to the footrope. These chains drag along the muddy bottom, stirring the shrimp up off the bottom and into the net.

On board, the shrimp are emptied from the net onto a shallow sorting table or dumped into a temporary storage hopper and then sorted mechanically. Small fish are removed as the shrimp is conveyed to the fish hold, where they are packed in ice. Pacific shrimp are processed onshore through a cooking and peeling process and then shipped fresh or frozen in a process called individually quick frozen, or IQF. Tuna Trollers A troller fishes for albacore tuna, as for salmon, by towing a number of lures, or baited hooks, through the water. Albacore trollers tow artificial lures on the surface at faster speeds (from four to eight knots) than those used for salmon, to catch fast-moving, hard-hitting tuna. Action can be fast and furious, with fishermen pulling in fish as fast as they can. A day’s catch can range from nothing to several hundred fish. A good day’s catch might be 300 tuna, with individual fish weighing up to 30 pounds.

Albacore trollers, called jig boats, tow 10 to 20 lines of varying lengths from the outriggers and stern. A lure (jig) is attached to the end of each unweighted line. Jigs have metal heads, plastic skirts or feathers, and

large barbless hooks and are shaped to look like squid. There is a cord attached to each line, called a tag line. The tag line is used to pull the fishing line within reach, where a mechanical reel is then used to bring the fish the rest of the way in. Each fish is landed by hand, unhooked, and then bled and prepared for icing or freezing.

Albacore boats are from 38 to 100 feet long and have a crew of two to three fishermen. The larger vessels can range hundreds of miles offshore, and a trip can last a month or more. The catch on these vessels is fresh frozen at sea. Albacore usually arrive in the summer with the warm current from Japan and leave in the fall, but water conditions influence whether and when they appear off the Oregon coast. Albacore prefer a water temperature of 58 to 64 degrees, and virtually no other fish are caught as bycatch when fishermen troll at this temperature range. Fish caught for the major canneries are not bled as are fish targeted for local fresh markets.

Salmon Trollers Salmon trollers supply fresh Chinook salmon to markets. The boats vary in size from 18-foot day boats to trip boats up to 60 feet. Smaller vessels return to port daily whereas larger vessels might stay at sea up to eight days.

A troller fishes for salmon by towing a number of lures or baited hooks through the water. Fishing lines are rigged to a pair of outriggers (trolling poles) three to six inches in diameter. When lowered, the outriggers hold the fishing lines away from the boat. The gear is built to withstand the shock of hard-striking fish. Many of the vessels have a trolling pit in the stern so that fishermen can steer while operating the gear.

Stainless steel lines are fished from each outrigger. Two to six lines are used, and each line is limited to four lures on monofilament leaders (spreads) attached at intervals of two to four fathoms. A 10- to 50-pound weight (cannon ball) takes each line to the desired depth. Fishing lines are set and retrieved using hydraulic gurdies (mechanical cranks). To spread out the lures and to prevent tangles, the crew uses float bags to float up to two lines per side behind the boat. www.newportchamber.org -47

Economy

Doing Business in Newport

Newport’s Marine Science Economy: Economic growth through studying the sea Newport residents have always made a living from the sea. Fishing is in our history and in our blood, and our tourism economy relies heavily on our gorgeous beaches. Another ocean-related economic engine here is marine science, a major and growing sector of our economy. From cutting-edge research to ocean monitoring to innovative educational approaches, we make it our business to learn about the ocean and educate children and adults about its mysteries.

Oregon State University’s (OSU) Hatfield Marine Science Center (HMSC) is the centerpiece of this sector. Celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2015, HMSC employs about 300 scientists, educators, students, and support staff.

In addition to OSU faculty members based at HMSC, many government agencies are co-located on the South Beach campus, including personnel from the federal National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency, the U. S. Fish & Wildlife Service, the U. S. Department of Agriculture, the U. S. Geological Survey, and the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. The overall budget of the center, including both OSU and agency budgets, is approximately $46 million. One of the center’s greatest strengths is collaborative research, facilitated by the co-location of so many agencies. The cutting-edge research at HMSC includes studies of salmon genetics, impacts of ocean acidification on fish and shellfish, underwater volcanoes, oyster nutrition, marine mammal migrations, and more.

The center operates two research vessels: The 54-foot Elakha, used for coastal work, and the 177-foot Oceanus for work offshore. OSU’s Marine Mammal Institute also operates the R/V Pacific Storm, a retrofitted trawler.

OSU was recently awarded a contract to lead the development of the next series of federal research vessels; one of the first to be produced will operate out of Newport, replacing the aging Oceanus.

OSU is planning an extensive expansion of the HMSC facility, mission, and programs. The goal of the initiative is to integrate all of OSU’s ocean-related offerings and expand the Newport campus to accommodate 500 students in residence per year (currently there are about 50 students in residence at HMSC at any given time). Plans call for expanded facilities, including extensive classroom, office, and laboratory space.

OSU is also a major player in the development of marine renewable energy, wave energy in particular, on the Oregon coast. The Northwest National Marine Renewable Energy Center (NNMREC), a partnership between OSU and the University of Washington, operates the Pacific Marine Energy Center (PMEC) offshore of Newport. PMEC consists of two offshore test sites – one autonomous and one grid-connected – where wave energy devices can be tested.

A new addition to the marine science cluster in Newport is the NOAA Marine Operations Center – Pacific (MOC-P), the headquarters of the entire Pacific fleet of NOAA research vessels, also in South Beach close to HMSC. After a highly competitive bidding process, Newport was successful in attracting the facility here. Construction was completed by the Port of Newport in 2011.

Five research vessels dock in at the Newport facility, which is staffed by 175 people (not all of whom are residents of Lincoln County). These vessels map the ocean floor to create nautical charts, conduct fisheries surveys, and serve as platforms for government and university research.

The Ocean Observatories Initiative of the National Science Foundation is a networked system of cutting-edge sensors that will monitor the chemistry and biology of the ocean and seafloor. One set of these instruments, part of the so-called “Endurance Array,” will be located offshore of Newport, including cabled arrays of sensors and standalone buoys; autonomous research gliders will also ply the waters as part of the OOI. The array will have a life span of 25 years, with an NSF investment of approximately $60 million per year.

While coordination and management of the OOI program locally (and, in part, regionally) is being conducted by faculty at Oregon State University in Corvallis, a Newport presence is planned, and local contractors and businesses could be utilized for tasks such as buoy maintenance, storage, and repair.

Another ocean observing system that has a local component is the

48- www.newportchamber.org

Northwest Association of Networked Ocean Observing Systems (NANOOS), which is the Regional Association of the national Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS) in the Pacific Northwest, primarily Washington and Oregon.

NANOOS is a partnership of over 40 entities, including industry, state agencies, local governments, tribes, non-government organizations, and educational institutions, which work together to provide intensive monitoring of the marine environment. The Port of Newport and personnel from the Newport office of the Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries are partners in this initiative.

Thanks in part to the concentration of marine science being conducted in Newport, an equally impressive array of marine education programs is also clustered here. Hatfield is a critical center of marine education, providing undergraduate and graduate education through OSU and HMSC’s partner agencies, as well as public education via its Oregon Sea Grant-run Visitor Center. The Visitor Center is also a laboratory where exciting new research is being conducted by OSU faculty and graduate students on how people learn in informal learning environments like museums. Finally, Sea Grant personnel provide hands-on classes to visiting students from classrooms all over the state.

The Oregon Coast Aquarium, located close to HMSC in South Beach, attracts visitors from around the globe – in fact, it is one of the top tourist attractions in Oregon. It is a critical educational resource for the state as well: more than 40,000 students come through its doors every year. Parents Magazine, Forbes Traveler, USA Today, 10Best.com and Coastal Living named the Oregon Coast Aquarium among the top ten in the nation. The Portland Business Journal listed the Aquarium as one of the top five education-based nonprofits in the state and Spirit Magazine called Passages of the Deep “The coolest 50 yards on the Oregon Coast.” The Aquarium also has an active outreach program, which brings their education program to students around the state.

The Oregon Museum of Science and Industry recently purchased a parcel in South Beach where they intend to build a facility to accommodate a summer residential marine science camp What is the economic impact of all of this marine science activity? A 2011 analysis estimated that the overall indirect spending resulting from the marine science and education sector was $55 million, creating a total of 1200 jobs in the region. The sector represents 6% of the county’s economy (as of 2013).

Seeing the potential for major economic growth based on the marine research sector, local economic development interests, businesses, scientists, and community leaders have developed a group to help address this issue proactively. The Yaquina Bay Ocean Observing Initiative (YBOOI) is committed to pursuing collaborative economic development opportunities for Newport and Lincoln County related to ocean observing activities. They have conducted multiple strategic planning events and an ocean observing conference in Newport in recent years, and a steering committee is spearheading efforts to capitalize on these opportunities.

The room for growth in this sector is enormous. YBOOI, the Chamber of Commerce, the City of Newport, Lincoln County, and the Port of Newport are all committed to encouraging businesses to relocate or grow in Newport and on the central coast in general. There isn’t a better place in the Pacific Northwest to build a marine-related business.

Tourism Guiding Lights Newport’s two lighthouses shine through the darkest, stormiest nights

By Nancy Steinberg

Newport is lucky enough to have two picturesque lighthouses that were historically used to guide and warn ships at sea. These historic treasures are now landmarks and tourist destinations as well as icons of our beautiful city.

Yaquina Bay Lighthouse A piece of Oregon history sits atop a bluff at the mouth of the Yaquina River: the historic Yaquina Bay Lighthouse, built in 1871 and decommissioned in 1874, having been made obsolete by the new Yaquina Head Lighthouse just up the coast a few miles. It was officially restored as a privately maintained aid to navigation on December 7, 1996.

This old girl, believed to be the oldest structure in Newport, is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. It is also the only existing Oregon lighthouse with the living quarters attached, and the only historic wooden Oregon lighthouse still standing. It is also rumored to be haunted, although the haunting story seems to have originated with a fiction short story written in 1899.

The Yaquina Bay Lighthouse has been restored to its original condition by the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD), with the help of many people and agencies, including Friends of Yaquina Lighthouses.

Friends of Yaquina Lighthouses is a private 501(c)3 nonprofit organization formed by local citizens to provide and support the restoration, education and interpretive services of the park. This organization relies heavily on volunteer support in all areas of operation.

The official relighting ceremony with the US Coast Guard took place on December 7, 1996. The light, 161 feet above sea level, shines with a steady white light from dusk to dawn (and sometimes on dark days, because it is controlled by a photocell).

The Lighthouse is open to the public every day except for holidays such as Christmas, New Years, and Thanksgiving. Entrance is free by donation.

The lighthouse is accessible via paved trails and a walkway leading to the top of the hill within Yaquina Bay State Park, at the north end of the Yaquina Bay Bridge. Access-compromised visitor groups are encouraged to use the large parking lot at the back of the lighthouse (entrance at SW Government and 9th Streets).

Inside the lighthouse, two flights of stairs lead to the watch room. The lantern room is not open to the public. The basement is open to the public and features a video about the lighthouse. The interpretive store offers many educational items about lighthouses and the surrounding coastal habitat.

The lighthouse is now surrounded by beautiful Yaquina Bay State Park,

54- www.newportchamber.org

Things to Do and See in Newport which includes walking trails through forested lands, a fishermen’s memorial, a scenic overlook that provides great views of the entrance to Yaquina Bay and the Yaquina Bay Bridge, and beach access.

Yaquina Head Lighthouse With more than 350,000 visitors a year, the Yaquina Head Lighthouse is one of the West Coast’s most visited lighthouses. Located just north of Newport in the federal Bureau of Land Management’s Yaquina Head Outstanding Natural Area, the Yaquina Head Lighthouse was built in 1873, and remains an excellent example of late 1800s lighthouses. At 93 feet, the tower is the tallest lighthouse in Oregon. Located on a narrow point of land jutting due west into the Pacific Ocean, the Yaquina Head Lighthouse took more than a year to build, using more than 370,000 bricks.

The light has been active since Head Keeper Fayette Crosby first walked up the 114 steps to light the wicks on the evening of August 20, 1873. During this time, the oil-burning, fixed white light was displayed from sunset to sunrise.

Today, the fully automated first order Fresnel lens runs on commercial power, flashing its unique pattern of two seconds on, two seconds off, two seconds on, 14 seconds off, 24 hours a day. The oil burning wicks were replaced with a 1,000-watt globe which, according to the U.S. Coast Guard, keepers of the aid to navigation, generates over 130,000 candlepower.

While the nightly vigil of watching the light is gone, as are the resident keepers and their quarters, the Bureau of Land Management, who is now responsible for the tower, guides visitors through the lighthouse with tales of yesteryear, year round.

The interpretive center, which opened at Yaquina Head Outstanding Natural Area in May 1997, is the best place to start your visit to this 100 acre site. It houses exhibits related to many features of the area, along with a well-stocked interpretive store. Proceeds from store sales directly benefit Friends of Yaquina Lighthouses, and are used for lighthouse restoration, education, interpretation, and maintenance. Yaquina Head offers much more than the lighthouse: Trails provide easy access to view marine wildlife in tide pools, rookery rocks, and coves.

The Lighthouse is open to the public every day except for Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Things to Do and See in Newport

Oregon Coast Aquarium Sea Lions, Sharks, and Otters Await Your Visit No visit to Newport is complete without a stop at the Oregon Coast Aquarium. This world-class marine attraction overlooks scenic Yaquina Bay just south of the Yaquina Bay Bridge. The Aquarium strives to be a center of excellence for ocean literacy and plays an active role in conservation, education and animal rehabilitation efforts. As one of Oregon’s most popular attractions, the Aquarium hosts an estimated 450,000 visitors annually. The 501(c)3 non-profit is funded through ticket sales, grants, and the support of Aquarium members. The 39-acre facility features indoor and outdoor exhibits that have repeatedly earned the Aquarium a ranking as one of the top ten aquariums in the nation.

Visitors can immerse themselves in the Aquarium with a wander through a range of permanent exhibits and one rotating temporary exhibit. Passages of the Deep, named “The coolest 50 yards on the Oregon Coast!” by Spirit Magazine, is a 1.32 million-gallon exhibit displaying a diverse array of marine animals including sharks up to 10 feet long. The series of tunnels feature a 360 degree view of three different kinds of underwater landscapes characteristic of our ocean off the Oregon Coast.

Coming this Memorial Day weekend is a brand-new rotating exhibit, Secrets of Shipwrecks, which will focus on discovery and exploration of these watery archaelogical sites. Word has it that the exhibit will be patrolled by an enormous moray eel and some toothy barracudas!

The Aquarium also boasts one of the largest outdoor seabird aviaries in the United States. Tufted puffins, common murres, rhinoceros auklets, pigeon guillemots and black oystercatchers all call the craggy cliffs and clear ponds home. Daily feedings delight visitors of all ages as each bird larks about to get the fishes of their choice. In addition to the seabird aviary, the Aquarium houses two turkey vultures. Guests are often surprised by the size of the brother and sister pair, Ichabod and Olive, who busy themselves with toys and other enrichment items.

A nearby underwater cave is inhabited by a Giant Pacific Octopus. Viewers sometimes need to stretch their powers of observation to spot the creature, which can camouflage itself and squeeze its soft body into dark crags. Guests can book an octopus encounter to feed and shake hands with one of these intelligent, seemingly alien animals.

The Aquarium’s sea otter exhibit is home to the largest population of sea otters in Oregon today. The all-male raft is comprised of rescued otters from the California and Alaska coasts. Visitors could easily pass an entire afternoon watching the antics of Judge, Mojo, Schuster, and the two latest additions to the clan, Nuka and Oswald.

The Aquarium is open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. during the summer travel season and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the winter months. To check for discounts, purchase tickets and learn more, visit www.aquarium.org.

Mysteries of the Deep Revealed at the Hatfield Marine Science Center Ever watch an octopus devour a live crab? Want to try your hand at generating electricity with a wave? Have questions about invasive species, underwater earthquakes, deep-sea hydrothermal vents, or local fish species? You can do all this and more at the Visitor Center of the Mark O. Hatfield Marine Science Center in South Beach.

HMSC is a facility of Oregon State University, but its campus is home to scientists from a wide variety of institutions, including OSU, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the Oregon Department of Fish & Wildlife, the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, and others. All told, approximately 300 scientists, educators, and support staff work at the center, conducting research, outreach, and education programs focused on our watery world. The topics studied there are as diverse as the inhabitants of the sea themselves: salmon genetics, the environmental impacts of wave energy, whale migration patterns, eruptions at undersea volcanoes, effects of 56- www.newportchamber.org

ocean acidification on fish, and much more.

Some of the most high-profile, cutting edge marine science in the world is carried out at Hatfield and by Hatfield-associated researchers. When an enormous dock ripped from its moorings by the March 2011 Japanese tsunami landed on a Newport beach in June 2012, Hatfield scientists Jessica Miller and John Chapman were the ones who took the lead on examining the potentially invasive species on the dock. A piece of that dock now stands as a sentinel and reminder outside the front door of the Visitor Center. Marine Mammal Institute Associate Director Scott Baker has made headlines with his genetics work demonstrating that endangered whale meat was being served in sushi restaurants in Seoul and Los Angeles. His pioneering work was featured in the eco-thriller/ documentary “The Cove,” released to great acclaim in 2009.

The best way to learn about what goes on at HMSC is by checking out the Visitor Center, where most of the exhibits are related to HMSC faculty

Pacific Maritime & Heritage Center: A new home for local history opens to great acclaim

research. One particularly hot topic is wave energy – how to extract it and what the environmental impacts of wave energy devices in the ocean might be. The wave energy exhibit at the Visitor Center covers these topics with hands-on activities. Another exhibit covers the threat of invasive species, a very real problem for the local coastal ecosystems. The VC also features touch tanks where visitors can be embraced by a sea anemone or stroke a tide pool fish. And of course, there’s the octopus, the mascot of the center that greets visitors as they enter. Check the schedule for her feeding times – it’s quite a show.

HMSC doesn’t like to let any data escape, and so even the Visitor Center is a laboratory. Here a team of researchers focused on “free-choice learning,” education that takes place outside of a formal classroom setting and under the student’s own initiative, studies the behaviors and interactions of visitors with the exhibits and with each other.

Cameras and other high-tech equipment installed throughout the center aid in those studies, and a cadre of researchers works behind the scenes to learn how we learn.

The Visitor Center (2030 SE Marine Science Drive) is open 10 am to 5 pm seven days a week from Memorial Day to Labor Day. Admission is by donation ($5 per person/$20 per family is suggested). For more information, go to hmsc.oregonstate.edu.

It is fitting that a building housing a history museum should have a colorful history itself. Such is the case for the Pacific Maritime & Heritage Center on the Bayfront in Newport. The stately greengrey building overlooking the fishing fleet has been a private estate, a nightclub, a restaurant, a decidedly unofficial hangout for local teens, and even the home of an off-track betting facility and Chippendale’s dancers.

When the Lincoln County Historical Society acquired the old Smuggler’s Cove nightclub, the property was, in a word, a mess. Luckily for locals and visitors alike, the Historical Society made the risky decision to forge ahead and fix it up. After more than eight years of slow fund-raising and countless hours of volunteer time to keep the restoration going through the recession, the Pacific Maritime & Heritage Center opened in June 2013. It is stunningly gorgeous inside, open and light, a fitting home in which to house and explore Lincoln County’s maritime history.

Many of the artifacts currently on display were donated by the local community. The result is a somewhat eclectic but beautifully curated and displayed set of items that span Lincoln County’s fishing, surfing, shipping, and tourism heritage. Every item on display comes with a fascinating story. One compelling local maritime story told through artifacts on display is of the wreck of the Blue Magpie, a 321-foot cargo ship that ran aground against the jetty at the entrance to Yaquina Bay and sank. A local diver contributed artifacts from the wreck that he retrieved, including a massive binnacle containing the ship’s compass.

Fluttering above one gallery is a series of colorful Japanese fishing flags, called “tairyouki,” that are traditionally flown by the Japanese fleet to express wishes for safety and a bountiful harvest.

The flags were a gift from fishermen and a fishing company in Mombetsu, Japan, Newport’s sister city. Below the flags is a guide to their symbolism.

One of the best treasures of the center is the view from its enormous bay windows and outdoor deck. Visitors will be mesmerized by the expansive vista encompassing the bustling Bayfront, the fishing fleet, and the bridge. At each vantage point, historical photos of similar views are displayed so visitors can see how that particular view has changed.

The building is much bigger than it appears from the street, with nooks and crannies and sections that seem to go on forever. Current exhibits are limited to the central floor of the threestory building, but the Historical Society won’t stop there. Currently underway is installation of a theater and event and conference center on the lower level of the building. As resources come in, they will add more gallery space downstairs and upstairs.

And so the history of the building continues to be made, one artifact at a time.
