CORRECTIONS Wrong time listed — Because of an editor’s error, the wrong time was listed for performances of “The Wizard of Oz� in the Nov. 7 edition of Coast Weekend. Performance times are at 7 p.m. Friday, Nov. 15, and at 2 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, Nov. 16 and 17, at the Fort Columbia Theater in Chinook, Wash. Leaders of the Peninsula Association of Performing Artists, which is producing the musical, point out that both Saturday and Sunday shows are matinees because of the time of year and the popularity of the play with children. The newspaper regrets the error.

Astoria Co-op continues GMO education with lecture Co-op General Manager Matt Stanley to present a consumer’s perspective ASTORIA — In the past two GHFDGHV JHQHWLFDOO\ PRGL¿HG organisms have been entering U.S. grocery stores at a dizzyLQJ UDWH :KLOH FHUWL¿HG RUJDQic foods are prohibited from containing GMOs, the Congressional Research Service estimates that 60 to 70 percent of processed conventional foods contain GMO ingredients, none of which have been tested for safety by the Food and Drug Administration. GMOs are plants or animals that have been genetically engineered with DNA from different species in order to FUHDWH EHQH¿WV VXFK DV GLVHDVH resistance. But are they safe? The answer is debatable, and a growing number of consumers are wary of the potential risks. In the second of a two-part series by the Astoria Co-op, General Manager Matt Stanley will give a presentation focused on the consumer perspective surrounding GMOs. In October, the co-op brought Oregon State University Professor Robert Zemetra, a wheat breeder and geneticist, to Astoria to speak from a pro-GMO perspective. In order to present a balanced view of this controversial issue, Stanley will share information he has learned about GMO concerns.

“It’s always been important to me since I learned about the lengths the industrial food system has gone to create food that isn’t keeping our health in mind. This is one of many ways that large companies are manipulating our food in ways that aren’t good for us,� said Stanley. “All you have to do is look at health trends in our country, heart disease, obesity, diabetes – in large part, all come back to our food system.� Stanley will share a presentation created by Gary Hirshberg, the chairman of the Just Label It campaign, which is dedicated to bringing about mandatory labeling of genet-

Authors: Improve your public speaking Workshop to help with pitches, interviews, readings MANZANITA — Have you ever stood at a microphone trying to get your knees to stop shaking? Manzanita’s Hoffman Center routinely offers open mic nights to local authors – but let’s face it, not everyone is comfortable reading their work aloud. Or joking around with the audience. Or persuading them to buy their book. Holly Lorincz, a published author, nationally recognized Speaking Coach and a publishing consultant with one of the top literary agencies in the United States, MacGregor
Literary, is offering a one-day workshop Saturday, Nov. 16 for all the writers in the area who want to practice talking to an audience. Her seminar, “Author > Speaker,� will be at the Hoffman Center from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and costs $59. At 7 p.m. on the same evening, the Hoffman Center is hosting an open mic, directly after writer Christopher Lord reads from his works. “Author > Speaker� will focus on the three marketing elements that authors, peering out from their writing cave, would rather avoid: the pitch appointment, the radio/TV/
newspaper interview and the public readings. Lorincz will offer tips and strategies on how to prepare for your book proposal pitch to agents or editors, brush you up on your interviewing skills, and get you ready to read your prose or poetry aloud for a group of breathing human beings. The workshop will also provide the opportunity to receive constructive and helpful feedback on your individual material and speaking abilities. Lorincz has spoken in front of audiences thousands of times as an instructor, as an

The Oregon Shakespeare Festival has had a big part in educating and entertaining both young and old on the Bard and other playwrights for 78 years. Besides its repertory theater in Ashland, one of the main missions of the festival is to bring theater to small communities and schools around Oregon. The School Visit Program not only brings worldclass actors to towns like Seaside and Chinook, Wash., but it also promotes the theater in Ashland. On Tuesday and Wednesday, Nov. 12 and 13, Oregon Shakespeare Festival actors Christina Clark and Jeremy Johnson visited Seaside High School, performing parts of “The Tempest,â€? Shakespeare’s tragi-comedy that, many critics say, is his only play to be set in North America. The two also gave acting workshops to SHS students. “It is just very exciting. We know that Shakespeare didn’t mean to be read. He meant to be seen, and the students will have the opportunity to see a live performance,â€? said Seaside English teacher Jan Priddy, before the actors came to town. Âł)RU PDQ\ RI WKH NLGV LW ZLOO EH WKH Âż UVW WLPH they will have seen a professional actor perform live. Students want to play roles, but they don’t think about the lines they are saying.â€? The whole student body of SHS got to see the actors’ introductory piece, then students broke into
smaller groups for workshops for much of the day. “It is amazing. It is a very comprehensive program,� said Priddy. Besides performing in Seaside, the OSF players will also be in Chinook, Wash., Thursday and Friday, Nov. 14 and 15. The Chinook School Event Center will host a celebration starting at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, complete with medieval foods and beverages from local vendors and live music. At 8 p.m., OSF Executive Director Emeritus Paul Nicholson will dedicate the new Angus Bowmer Stage at the event center and kick off a public OSF performance. On Friday, actors Clark and Johnson will perform and teach students from Ilwaco High School and Naselle High School at the event center. The town of Chinook, Wash., has a special relationship to the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. The festival’s founder, Angus Bowmer, taught school there before moving to the Southern Oregon Normal School, now Southern Oregon University, in 1931. Bowmer always had a heart for youth, and this, plus a love of Shakespeare, motivated him to create a haven in Ashland where people could come from all around the western United States to see Shakespeare’s plays. The School Visit Program is an outreach of Bowmer’s original purpose – to bring the Bard to as many people as possible. Another program that OSF devotes to education is called Shakespeare in the Classroom. For one week each summer the festival hosts teachers from the West Coast and beyond to be taught by professional educators on how best to introduce Shakespeare in their classrooms. After a tough year teaching, Priddy said she was happy to be challenged and entertained by the

Giving ŸƆŻ Receiving As Thanksgiving approaches, volunteers help bring the community together. Story by CATE GABLE
T
he holiday season is nearly upon us, and though many families may have sugar plum fairies dancing in their heads, that is not the case for everyone. If you have recently lost a loved one, are in the aftermath of a messy divorce, or are simply new to the area, the looming holiday season may hold more dread than magic for you. Here, we hope to provide both families and singles with some options for giving and receiving during the upcoming Thanksgiving week.
Giving Back
For Russell Maize and Chris Summerner, owners of the Inn at Harbour Village in Ilwaco, Wash., and Castaways, Stormin’ Norman’s and other Long Beach (Wash.) Peninsula establishments, Thanksgiving is a time to give back. Russell grew up in Warrenton with parents who owned a grocery store and was nurtured by a family with a sense of community. So eight years ago he and business partner Chris decided to create a community Thanksgiving dinner. Inn at Harbour Village, once a church, has a commercial-style kitchen and is perfectly suited to providing meals for large groups of people. Employees Doreen and Chuck Parker talked a little bit about how the community Thanksgiving meal is accomplished. “We have four ovens and a roaster that can bake a turkey in two hours,” said Doreen. “Last year we roasted 16 turkeys and three hams, and this years we’ll probably do 18 turkeys and four hams. This is our eighth annual dinner. “I have a crew who come in to help me, and we roast all the turkey the day before. Then we have another group that comes in, in the evening, to cut up the turkeys and arrange everything on plates. Potatoes get peeled, furniture gets moved. Some people help with parking. We have about 40 or 50 volunteers. People call the Inn; then we put all the names on a list and make up a work schedule, and everybody gets included.” Husband Chuck picks up the story, “People help serve and clean up, and then a lot more 10 | November 14, 2013 | coastweekend.com

Innkeepers Chuck and Doreen Parker, of the Inn at Harbour Village’s, will help host the eighth annual Community Day of Thanks at the Ilwaco, Wash., inn. The free Thanksgiving feast is open to all and will include about 18 turkeys and four hams. The Warrenton Community Center will host the third annual Community Day of Thanks, a free Thanksgiving Day dinner open to the public from noon to 3 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 28. No one is turned away as long as the food lasts.

Communities Come Together
You might think that a Thanksgiving dinner like this one is for those who are homeless or just down on their luck – but no, the idea is to provide a place for the community to come together. “We have one older gentleman who brings in his family every year. He is a captain, but his house is too
small for his whole family to gather,” Chuck said. “So they’ve made it a tradition to come here. People are always coming up to him – some who’ve worked with him as a deckhand or crew or something. “Well, the fun thing is that we get everybody from the community. You see all of the characters ± ¿ VKHUPHQ RU GHFNKDQGV RU WKH\ ZRUN DW -HVVLH¶V (the cannery at the Ilwaco port). I volunteered, and ZKHQ , ¿ UVW VWDUWHG , ZDV ZDVKLQJ GLVKHV QH[W WR Steve Oman (a local businessman and owner of Oman Lumber Company).” The meal itself is elegant. It’s a sit down meal, not a buffet. The blogger at “Our Ilwaco,” who has attended the dinner more than once, describes it this way: “Each table had this sign which made it clear that this is not a charity dinner, so guests could feel just as welcome if they come from an RV Park or a fancy new home on the hill. The food was brought out UHVWDXUDQW VW\OH WR PDNH WKH H[SHULHQFH PRUH HOH JDQW DQG UHOD[LQJ WKDQ OLQLQJ XS DW D EXIIHW ´ )RU a complete description and lots of great photos see http://ourilwaco.wordpress.com/tag/inn-atharbour-village). As well as feeding between 400 and 450 community attendees, Inn at Harbour Village teams up with Coastal Community Action Program, a hospice and care-giving organization, to provide delivered meals to seniors or others who are not mobile enough to attend in person. “We’ll probably deliver another 100 meals to people who can’t come in,” says Chuck. “It’s great that we have the resources to do what we do.” Doreen added, “A couple years ago we had people from Seaside and Astoria call us and ask ‘How do you do what you do? We want to do this in our town.’ So we shared what we’ve learned over the years, and I think they’ve got something similar going over the river now.”
Sometimes holidays are difficult times for lots of different reasons.
Thankful Hearts
Indeed, last year, Thankful Hearts, a group of local families inspired by Maize and Summerner, came together to cook and serve their second annual “Community Day of Thanks” at the Warrenton Community Center. No one is turned away. One of the main organizers, Lisa Lamping, said, “Everyone is welcome, rich or poor, family or no family, or anyone who doesn’t want to spend time with their family!” Lamping acknowledges that VRPHWLPHV KROLGD\V DUH GLI¿ FXOW WLPHV for lots of different reasons. “Some people don’t want to be home alone on a holiday. And some people don’t want to hang out with their relatives – it can be really stressful.

So they came in ZLWK WKHLU VL[ NLGV $OVR ODVW year there was a car broken down beside the road. The family was homeless. So someone ran over and picked them up and bought them over, and we fed them.

turn out. It’s great having a room full. All seniors are welcome. “Often times people think our meal program is for people who can’t afford it, but it’s not that. We have a wide cross section of the community that come in for lunches. It’s more of a social gathering, it’s really meant to be a social endeavor. We’ve been doing this for 40 years.” If you want to be alone and eat a peanut butter sandwich on Thanksgiving, more power to you. But if you want to join your community either to enjoy a complete turkey meal or to help serve one, \RX KDYH QR H[FXVHV DQG SOHQW\ RI choices on this day of thanks.

Clemente’s Restaurant Local, organic and seasonal: Fresh cuisine that tastes – and feels – good to eat
I

I recently read about a dietary study performed at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, with the results revealing what most of us have already noticed – our food is getting bigger, and as a result, so are we. In the last 20 years, hamburgers have expanded by 23 percent, a plate of Mexican food by 27 percent, and soft drink sizes have increased by a whopping 53 percent. What’s more, it seems that our food, in its most natural form, has seemingly become too plain to be considered edible. Who wants a plain, simply seasoned chicken breast when you could cover it with cheese, wrap it in bacon, deep fry it, and pour creamy sauce over the top? Clemente’s Restaurant in Astoria is the antidote. Chef and owner Gordon Clement and his wife, Lisa, have employed a very basic concept, but interestingly, one that seems overlooked in far too many restaurants: reasonable serving sizes, fresh and local organic ingredients, singular, unsullied À DYRU DQG DUWIXO SUHSDUDWLRQV $W &OHPHQWHœV HY erything that graces your table was sourced locally, organically, and through sustainable practices, and the menu changes throughout the seasons as different ingredients become available. The result is remarkably fresh-tasting cuisine – food that tastes good and that you can feel good about eating. I began a recent visit to Clemente’s with a remarkable appetizer, a poke of local sushi-grade Albacore tuna in a soy, sesame, ginger and cucumber marinade. I often wonder, with our access to fresh seafood, why sushi is not more popular DURXQG KHUH DQG , ZDV GHOLJKWHG WR ¿ QG D UDZ dish of this caliber.

Freshly harvested Willapa steamer clams in white wine, onion and garlic followed next. I was surprised to taste something spicy in their preparation, perhaps red pepper, but don’t quote me on that. Whatever the case, the unexpected spiciness added interest to the clams. The four entrÊes we ordered were top notch across the board. Hungry for more tuna, I chose seared, rare Albacore with a Thai ginger, green peppercorn, sea salt and sumac rub, served over rice and with braised greens.

RAYMOND and NASELLE, Wash. — At its peak in the 1920s, the Schafer Bros. Logging Company, one of the largest lumber businesses in the Northwest, commissioned several movies of their operations. 7he ¿lms were recently restored. Peter Schafer Reid, a member of the Schafer family, will be at the Raymond Timberland Library on Saturday, Nov. 16 from 11 a.m. to noon and at the Naselle Timberland Library from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. to show the ¿lms and discuss the history of the company. Afterward, Reid and co-author Barbara Seal Ogle will talk about their new book, “Schafer State Park.” The Schafer brothers, Peter (Reid’s grandfather), Albert and Hubert began logging in 1893 on the family homestead, six miles upstream from the mouth of the Satsop River. By the 1920s, the Schafers were running one of the largest logging, milling and ship-
ping concerns in the Northwest, employing about 3,000 people. In 1924 the family donated the land, including a large stand of old-growth timber, which would become the Schafer State Park. Located north of Elma, Wash., the park is both a state and national historic site and offers examples of 1930s craftsmanship from the Works Progress Administration. Buildings in the park are constructed from native stone. Reid and Ogle will discuss the park’s history and future. Their book includes more than 200 vintage images and history from pioneer days to the present. Its publication celebrates the 100th anniversary of Washington State Parks. Copies will be available for purchase and signing. Reid is a former clinical program director at Stanford Law School and is currently chair of the Washington State Parks

Concerts celebrate the West
Five Minutes With ...
Hear the Columbia River Symphony ASTORIA and ILWACO, Wash. — While visiting national parks in Utah this summer, Columbia River Symphony conductor Cory Pederson conceived the idea for a concert celebrating the majestic landscapes of the American West. The result will be presented at two concerts. The 7 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 16 concert will take place at Seaport Lodge No. 7, the Astoria Masonic Lodge located at 16th Street and Franklin Avenue. The 3 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 17 concert will be at the Hilltop School Auditorium, located at 442 Brumbach Ave. N.E in Ilwaco, Wash. Both concerts are free to the public, and families with children are welcome. 0RXQWDLQV ¿JXUH SURPLQHQWly in these two concerts. “Like catching moisture-laden winds and gathering them into visible clouds, mountains capture our KLJKHVW LPDJLQDWLRQV DQG UHÀHFW
our noblest spirit,” says John Davis, a professor at Naropa University in Boulder, Colo. “They have been the home of gods and goddesses, the physical embodiment of unchanging truth and stability, the very essence of majesty and awe.” The original idea for the concerts expanded beyond the American West to include the wilds of Scotland and the mountain peaks of the Himalayas. “By Loch and Mountain” by composer Robert W. Smith evokes the lakes and mountains of Scotland by weaving together beautiful Scottish melodies, while Rossano Galante’s “Mt. Everest” takes a different approach by portraying the majesty of the world’s highest mountain in loud thundering clashes and soaring melodic passages. Closer to home, other pieces on the program celebrate the Rocky Mountains, the Blue

Pacific Northwest and especially of Astoria. Why are you drawn to oil painting? I like the way it smells, its texture, the extended drying time and the color complexities. But most of all, it’s not acrylic paint. I hate that stuff. Working with oil paint requires patience, which gives you time to step back and critically evaluate your work before making any changes or adding anything. What is something you like about living on the North Coast? The dramatic changes of weather and light throughout the day, as well as the striking geographical features of the area. And most
importantly, the wonderful people who live here. What is your favorite thing about autumn? Halloween! I love creating new costumes every year. Name a good book you recently read. “Obstinate Hope: The Western Expeditions of Nathaniel J. Wyeth” by Jim Hardee. Nathaniel Wyeth was a 19th century ice merchant from Massachusetts who tried to establish a salmon exporting business in the Pacific Northwest. His journals shed an interesting light on 19th century entrepreneurship. Unfortunately, he met with hardship, and his dreams were never fulfilled.
