This week’s top ﬁve

LINCOLN CITY — This weekend sees the start of Community Days, quite possibly the silliest 10 days on the Oregon Coast. If touring local businesses to play putt putt isn’t your thing, how about Mud Flat Golf on Siletz Bay? And you would have to be a hermit to get through the week without bumping into Miss Oregon Ali Wallace, who will be out and about everywhere from lunch forums and meet-and-greets to the time-honored Mo’s Ice Cream Social. See pages 25 & 26

TOLEDO — Saturday’s Family ﬁshing Day at the Olalla Reservoir oﬀers a lot more than just the chance to stick a line in the water. With free kayak rental and

guided nature hikes, there is something for everyone to enjoy in the great outdoors. See page 6

MANZANITA — The annual Poetryfest celebration is all booked up but that doesn’t mean there isn’t the chance to catch a stanza or two this weekend. Award-winning poets John Brehm and Andrea Hollander will read from their latest collections this Saturday at the Hoﬀman Center for the Arts. See page 23

NEWPORT — Why stay at home with pay-per-view when you can have much more fun with paper view at the

from the editor Newport Visual Arts Center? See pieces from 12 of the instructors at this year’s Paper & Book Arts Festival in a public reception this Friday. See page 8

CLOVERDALE — Rugged individualism is the order of the weekend at the Thomas Goodwin Gallery, where Portland textile expert Mehmet Sahin will be displaying a huge collection of carpets and rugs, handcrafted by artisans from Turkey, Iran and Afghanistan. Intense Turkish coﬀee will add to the atmosphere at the beautiful riverfront setting. See page 18

A fest of loyalty Newport Loyalty Days and Sea Fair Festival celebrates 60 years By Barbara B. Covell For The TODAY

The Newport Loyalty Days and Sea Fair Festival celebrates its 60th anniversary this year, promising four days packed all things Americana, including a community parade, carnival, veterans and active duty military tributes, pageant and coronation, music, food and much more. Originally spearheaded by the Veterans of Foreign Wars, Loyalty Days grew popular in the 1950s as a designated day for Americans to rededicate themselves to their country. Newport’s first Loyalty Day celebration was observed May 1, 1956, spearheaded by the American Legion Post #116. Two years later, Congress designated a Loyalty Day bill that was signed into law by President Dwight D. Eisenhower on July 18, 1958, establishing May 1 as a special day to affirm American liberties and the founding principles of this country. Stormi Dykes, a committee member of the non-profit Newport Loyalty Days and Sea Fair Festival Association, says Newport is one of four or five communities in the US that celebrates Loyalty Day on a grand scale. The family friendly weekend begins at 3 pm on Thursday, April 28, with the Davis Shows Northwest Family Carnival experience featuring rides, attractions, games and food for children of all ages each day through Sunday, May 1. “This is the same popular carnival we’ve had

Senior Court Princesses McKenzie Figuracion, Lindi Hunter, Morgan Quady and Tatiana Gil • Photo by JerriLynn Woolley/Oregon Coast Photography

here for over 30 years,” Dykes says. “People have great memories of this.” The carnival will be located at the Port of Newport’s South Beach Marina parking lot on SE Marine Science Drive. Tickets can be purchased at the gate along with armbands, which allow the wearer unlimited rides for a day, priced from $22 to $25. “This year JC Market is partnering with us by oﬀering pre-sales on armbands for only $20 apiece,” Dykes said, “but only until 5 pm Wednesday, April 27. After then, armbands can only be purchased at the carnival location.” Friday’s events include the Annual Luncheon with the Newport Chamber of Commerce and the Veterans Honor Lunch. A signiﬁcant veterans event begins 10:30 am on

Friday, April 29, at the Toledo Dairy Queen where the City of Newport police, City of Toledo police and the Oregon Coast Veterans Association assemble with the Traveling Oregon Memorial Wall. “The Wall is a tribute to all the Oregon service people who have lost their lives in the line of duty from Vietnam to the present,” Dykes said. At 11 am, it will be escorted from Toledo to the Newport National Guard Armory parking lot, where it will be reassembled and open to the public until Saturday, April 30, at 7 pm. “It is a moving tribute to see this event,” Dykes said. “It is so poignant and demonstrates the value of liberty and what has been given to us.” Friday evening showcases the senior court princesses with the Queen’s Coronation at the Newport Performing Arts Center from 7 to 9 pm. This year’s princesses are all students at Newport High School, selected on the basis of an entry essay, minimum GPA and a speech to the Loyalty Days Committee. “It is a great program for young women in this area,” Dykes said, “they get exposure to local businesses and organizations by attending

lively events, learning etiquette and meeting goals for fundraising through the sale of Loyalty Days pins.” In addition, the senior court princesses attend Rotary and Toastmasters meetings, performing and perfecting their individual testimonials and Value of Liberty speeches. The Queen’s Coronation event, which is free and open to all, includes entertainment by a local dance troupe and the Newport High School band, as well as a ceremony for past queens and princesses. After the coronation is the annual Reading of the Names in the Don Davis Park Gazebo, adjacent to the Performing Arts Center. The Saturday, April 30, highlight event is the Hometown Parade, which closes Highway 101 from noon until 2 pm to make way for a host of ﬂoats, antique and classic cars, marching bands, dance troupes and costumed marchers. This year’s Grand Marshal is Sgt. Jay Michael Louisiana, a Newport native who joined the Oregon National Guard in 2000, has served four overseas deployments, including Iraq and Afghanistan, and assisted in humanitarian eﬀorts during hurricane Katrina in New Orleans. Sgt. Louisiana currently is stationed in Salem and is working on his Aviation Science degree. Other feature Saturday events are the National Guard Armory Open House, the US Coast Guard Station Yaquina Bay Open House and the American Legion Post 116 Open House for veterans. Saturday evening at Rogue Ale Public House is the Mr. Bill’s Traveling Trivia Show. For more information, times and additional events, go to www.facebook.com/ NewportLoyaltyDays/timeline.

Can they bank on some help? Boaters and landlubbers alike are being invited to help out at a spring cleanup of the Alsea River near Waldport on Sunday, April 24. The daylong cleanup, organized by the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife and the Alsea Sportsman’s Association, will start at 8:30 am at the US Forest Service’s Blackberry Day Use Area, located about 19 miles east of Waldport on Highway 34. “We need volunteers to work from the river and others to work from the road, picking up trash along the Alsea River corridor and at popular boat ramps and

bank access sites along the river,” said ODFW Biologist Christine Clapp. Volunteers will receive free Northwest Forest day passes, and a shuttle service will also be available. Both drift boats and motorboats are welcome. There will be coﬀee and donuts in the morning and a barbeque in the afternoon. The event is also sponsored by SOLVE and Dahl Disposal Service. People bringing boats to the clean-up who would like shuttle service should RSVP to Clapp by calling 541-2658306, ext. 253 or emailing Christine.m.clapp@state. or.us.

RESERVOIR HOGS STAKE YOUR CLAIM TO A SPOT AT TOLEDO FISHING DAY

Earth Day 2.0 Anyone who finds themselves stuck in the office on Earth Day can still help make a difference the day after, by helping out at trail building projects in Lincoln City on Saturday, April 23. Eagle Scouts will be at work at the Seid Creek Open Space, which straddles both sides of SE East Devils Lake Road, and will welcome all the help they can get.

Volunteers should dress for the weather, wear tough shoes or boots and be prepared for a ton of fun. Snacks and lunches will be provided. Work will start at 8:30 am and go all day. Parking at the site is very limited, but onstreet parking is available in the SE East Devils Lake Road area and at the Lincoln City Outlets.

Free fishing will be on offer at Toledo’s Olalla Reservoir this Saturday, April 23, in an event that will also offer free kayak rental and outdoor fun for the whole family. As well as a stocked fish enclosure for kids, the event will feature reservoir-wide fishing derbies, kayak tours and nature hikes. Prizes will be awarded for the adult and youth fishing derbies, and there will also be a few prizes

that every youth participant will be entered to receive. All activities are free. The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife will provide rods, reels, tackle and bait free of charge along with guidance on how to set up the gear, cast, reel and even clean ﬁsh. Organized in cooperation with Georgia Paciﬁc and the Association of Western Pulp and Paper Workers, the event is open to the public

and no pre-registration is required. Anglers under 12 years old do not need a fishing license. However, anglers 12 to 17 years of age will need a youth license, which can be purchased for $10 at any ODFW license agent, ODFW office or online at ODFW’s website, but will not be available at the event. Everyone else must have an adult fishing license. The event will run from

8:30 am to 2 pm at the reservoir. From Newport, take Highway 20 east for about six miles, then head north on Olalla Road for about three miles. Parking at Olalla Reservoir is reserved for people launching boats. All other participants should ride the shuttle that departs every 15 minutes from Toledo High School, 1800 NE Sturdevant Road.

Help tackle a prickly problem The Nature Conservancy is inviting people interested in preserving Cascade Head to help remove invasive blackberry plants in a Saturday, April 30, work party. Located near Lincoln City, Cascade Head is a coastal promontory overlooking the Paciﬁc Ocean that provides critical habitat for native prairie

grasses, rare wildflowers, the threatened Oregon Silverspot butterfly and the Cascade Head catchfly. The work party includes a four- to fivemile roundtrip hike with elevation gain and might require volunteers to hike off trail and stand on uneven ground while working. Participants should bring hiking shoes,

a daypack, lunch and snacks, a full water bottle, layers of clothing to be prepared for any weather, a hat and sunscreen. Bring gloves if possible; if not, some will be available to borrow. For more information or to register, contact 503-802-8100, orvolunteers@ tnc.org or the alternate contact, Debbie Pickering at 541-994-5564.

Everyone’s welcome to “Anything Goes” The Central Coast Chorale will celebrate the earth, oceans and sky this weekend and next, with a quartet of “Anything Goes” spring concerts arranged around an Earth Day theme. The concert will open with an arrangement of Cole Porter’s “Anything Goes,” sung by the chorale’s small group, Women of Note. The chorus will then introduce the Earth Day theme with the pure harmonies of John Rutter’s well-known Anglican anthem “For the Beauty of the Earth.” The program will also feature American composers Houston Bright and Frank Ticheli’s settings of poems “The Stars Are with the Voyager” and “Earthsong,” which speak to a search for peace and love. Guest artists will play didgeridoos to accompany works by Leanne Veitch and David Long that oﬀer Native American views of the moon. A high

Women of Note will add an international accent with “Songs from the Sea” by Finnish composer Aulis Sallinen and “Three Spanish Ballads” by Eugene Butler

SONGS FROM THE HEART

as well as a lovely evocation of sunset in Mary Lynn Lightfoot’s “The River Sleeps beneath the Sky.” Several pieces will be performed a cappella and others will be accompanied on piano by Milo Graamans with percussion by Pete Theodore. For more information, call Chorale Director Mary Lee Scoville at 541-563-6830.

Singer-songwriter David Roth will return to the Oregon Coast this Sunday, April 24, for an intimate concert at the Thomas Goodwin Gallery in Cloverdale. Roth strikes many chords, hearts and minds with his unique songs, oﬀbeat observations, moving stories, sense of the hilarious and powerful subject matter. As singer, songwriter, recording artist, keynote speaker, workshop leader and instructor, he has earned top honors at premier songwriter competitions and taken his music to a wide variety of venues for more than two decades. Roth’s songs have found their way to Carnegie Hall, the United Nations, the Kennedy Center and even outer space — “Rocket Science” went up with the space shuttle Atlantis on its 2009 mission to repair the Hubble Telescope. Winner of four Positive Music Awards and the 2015 Grace Note for Outstanding

Contribution to New Thought Music, Roth has also been featured on many of Christine Lavin’s seminal Rounder Records compilations. The former artist-in-residence at New York’s Omega Institute has also been a songwriting judge at Kerrville; Napa Valley; Tumbleweed, Washington; Eventide Art, Massachusetts; the Avalon Festival in West Virginia; and the South Florida Folk Festival. Roth is also founder and director of the Cape Cod Songwriters Retreat and host of Cape Cod’s “Full Moon Open Mic” which, for the past 10 years, has provided a forum for musicians to connect and be heard while at the same time collecting donations for local nonproﬁts to help neighbors in need. The Sunday concert will begin at 5 pm at 34390 S. Hwy. 101, with support from special guests Sonya Kazen and Fred Bassett. There is a $10 suggested donation for admission, but no one will be turned away for lack of funds.

Stacks of talent If you think that pile of half-read books teetering precariously on your bedside table is defying gravity, wait until you see “Patience” by book artist Randi Parkhurst. The interactive book-art structure will be unveiled at a Friday, April 22, public reception to mark the opening of the 2016 Newport Paper & Book Arts Festival. Created in 2007, “Patience” took nearly a year to create and holds 19 books, nesting like Russian dolls in boxes,

drawers and cubbyholes. Extensive planning and architecture went into the project’s design. Parkhurst used her own surfacedesigned papers, as paper tolerance and thickness were critical to the project’s overall success. Parkhurst’s work is in the collections of The Evergreen State College, the University of Puget Sound and Penland School of Crafts. Her work is found in “1000 Artists’ Books” and “100 Handmade Books, Vol. 2.” Hosted by the Oregon Coast Council for the Arts, Friday’s reception will run from 5 to 7 pm at the Newport Visual Arts Center, 777 NW Beach Drive, with the “Patience” presentation taking place at 6 pm.

Sitka spruces up for show and tell For months, anyone driving past the Sitka Center for Art & Ecology just north of Lincoln City will have been serenaded by a combination of muffled banging, half-formed melodies and the sound of paint being furiously mixed. The spring crop of artistsin-residence has been hard at work on everything from printmaking to bug research and, on Saturday, April 23, the artists will share their work so far at Sitka’s spring Show & Tell. From October to midMay, the center’s residency program provides about 16 artists, writers, musicians and environmental scientists with time and space for reflection, artistic creation or scientific research. The Show & Tell gives guests the chance to see each resident’s creative process and hear about research taking place in the area. The spring residents include Rebecca Forgac, who graduated from New York University in 2010 with a BFA in Painting and English Literature. She has traveled to Iceland, Japan and across the US for her work, and her paintings, drawings and ceramics draw from her travels and research into the geologic and cultural timescales of these landscapes. Maxim Loskutoff was raised in western Montana and is a graduate of NYU’s MFA program. His stories have appeared in The Southern Review, The Gettysburg Review, Narrative and The Chicago Tribune. He was the recipient of

Philadelphia’s landscapes and soils. Her complex layered prints and drawings explore the relationship between the printmaking process and geological processes, and have been exhibited at The Woodmere Art Museum, Philadelphia’s City Hall and The Morris Arboretum. Toronto-born Alison Melville began her musical life by playing the recorder in a school classroom in London, England. Her subsequent career has taken her across North America and to New Zealand, Iceland, Japan and Europe. A member of the Toronto Consort and Ensemble Polaris, and artistic director of the Bird Project, she appears regularly with Tafelmusik and collaborates in many other

artistic endeavours. Linda Wiener is an entomologist and philosopher who has worked in places as far flung as the Nilgiri Mountains of India and Zapatista communities in Chiapas, Mexico. Recent projects include finding and drawing 483 species of insects and spiders on the juniper trees in her backyard and a study of artistic expression in animals. The Show & Tell, which is free and open to all, will start at 1 pm in the center’s Boyden Studio. Light snacks and beverages will be provided.

Taco-ing a big challenge The fish taco tour is a time-honored tradition to people visiting the Oregon Coast, with some dedicated souls wolfing down the coastal classic for breakfast, lunch and dinner. And on Saturday, April 30, the Culinary Center in Lincoln City will provide a target-rich environment for taco hunters when it hosts the 8th Annual Fish Taco Cook-Off. The contest sees professional chefs from around the region competing for the title of best fish taco on the Oregon Coast. Back after a four-year break, Mist Restaurant, located at the oceanfront Surftides Resort, will be competing, with a culinary team led by Executive Chef Jason Jobé.

Jobé said the team will be presenting the same fish taco recipe served up daily from Mist’s recently revamped menu. “I will be making a grilled cod taco with a cabbage cilantro slaw, chipotle aioli, topped off with fresh pico de gallo,” he said. “We also put a lot of love into preparing each fish taco.” Jobé will be competing against chefs from Lincoln City’s New Mexico restaurant and the Pelican Pub and Brewery from Pacific City. The culinary center will also be submitting its own taco to the contest. Guests can sample each taco for $1.50 apiece and vote for their favorite in the People’s Choice Award. Beer and wine will be available for purchase from the culinary center, along with an assortment of desserts from Captain Dan’s Pirate Pastry Shop and My Petite Sweet. Barnacle Bill’s Seafood Market will also have smoked seafood products for sale. The cook-off, which is free and open to all, will run from 11 am to 2 pm at the Culinary Center in Lincoln City, located on the fourth floor of the Lincoln Square Civic Complex at 801 SW Hwy. 101. For more information, contact the Lincoln City Visitor & Convention Bureau at 800-452-2151 or go to www. oregoncoast.org.

For the TODAY

From testing the attentiveness of unsuspecting sea anemones to counting rare members of the local sea star population, Lincoln Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s free tide pool clinics are a paradise for explorers of all ages. The clinics, led by Dr. Chuck Getter with assistance from dedicated volunteers like Jack and Carol Seagrove, will be held twice a month through the end of July and are one part instruction and two parts discovery. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I leave it open intentionally,â&#x20AC;? Dr. Chuck said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Every day Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m out there, there are different things to see and the weather and tide are never the same. We basically structure it around what people want to do.â&#x20AC;? After a quick overview of basic ocean safety and the top species to sight, the instructor and his minions lead the participants, generally numbering from 20 to 40 people, down to the beach at low tide then set them free try to ďŹ nd something interesting. Cries of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dr. Chuck, what is this?â&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dr. Chuck, come see what I found,â&#x20AC;? ring out as the biologist, who has more than 40 yearsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; experience educating people all over the globe, scrambles to reach each excited person and conďŹ rm or clarify their ďŹ ndings. The various sea anemones are usually the ďŹ rst thing people ďŹ nd and ask about, especially when they are in large numbers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The clustered groups of small anemones are clones,â&#x20AC;? Dr. Chuck said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They are competing for space. So basically what you are looking at are clone wars.â&#x20AC;? Surprisingly, the soft-looking creatures are predators of the hard-shell mussels that cover many of the rocks, so occasionally you will see a partially digested one clutched in an anemoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tendrils.

The brightly colored and almost alien looking nudibranchs, or sea slugs, are another favorite. But the most joyful sightings are those of sea stars, a species Dr. Chuck said was recently under threat of disappearing. Last year, sea stars along the coast of Oregon and Washington succumbed to Sea Star Wasting Syndrome, which caused them to go from seemingly healthy to falling apart within three days. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just out here as observers,â&#x20AC;? Dr. Chuck said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re collecting data on the sea star population. As far as I know, we are the only group monitoring the recovery of sea stars in this area. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re seeing more every time we come out.â&#x20AC;? The volunteers also count the density of California mussels that are exposed on the rocks during the low tide, apparently a quite popular meal. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sea stars are another predator of mussels,â&#x20AC;? Dr. Chuck said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Because of the wasting disease, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen an increase in mussels in the last year.â&#x20AC;? The outings last from 45 minutes to two hours, usually depending on the weather. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We always have hardcore people that donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want it to end,â&#x20AC;? Dr. Chuck said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I basically just stay out there until the last person leaves. Sometimes I just walk out

Ian Keene of Lincoln City calls out a sighting

here even without a planned program like these clinics, and I end up getting 10 people following me. People just really like ďŹ nding out about what is out here.â&#x20AC;? After getting a Ph.D. in Marine Biology from The University of Miami, Dr. Chuck traveled to such diverse places as Hawaii, Malaysia and Saudi Arabia, before ďŹ nally settling in Oregon in 1986. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been a teacher and consultant at ďŹ ve universities, two high schools and [in] 12 countries,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is one of the most beautiful places in the world to me.â&#x20AC;? In addition to the free clinics, sponsored by the Lincoln City Visitor and Convention Bureau, Dr. Chuck provides marine ecology education for private groups, schools, civic groups and Boy Scout troops. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We get people that have never been to the waterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s edge and explored,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love working with those groups. Being aware of whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s out there makes people lifelong conservationists.â&#x20AC;? For more information, go to www. oregoncoast.org/tide-pool-clinics or call 541996-1274.

been expecting you The craftsmanship of rug-makers from Turkey, Afghanistan and Iran will be on display this weekend in Cloverdale, where the Thomas Goodwin Gallery will showcase more than 200 examples of craftsmanship from throughout the region. Curated by Portland textiles dealer Mehmet Sahin, the collection features a host of one-of-a-kind carpets and rugs, hand-woven from pure, hand spun wool, cotton or silk. None are made by machine or from synthetic materials, and none are made using child labor. Sahin is from the Anatolia region of Turkey, where sheep are raised naturally on organic farms, yielding the world-famous wool that has supported the area for thousands of years. Gallery owner Thomas Goodwin said he used to buy

rugs from Sahin’s Instanbul Rug Bazaar in Portland and the two always talked about doing a carpet show one day. “When he came down to see the gallery in Cloverdale he said ‘this is the perfect place for a show,’” Goodwin said. All the carpets will be available to purchase but Goodwin said guests are

more than welcome to come and learn about the region’s traditions while enjoying a cup of Turkish coﬀee. “This guy isn’t just a salesman,” Goodwin said. “He really knows these carpets, where they come from how they are made. It’s a great opportunity to get an education about a really beautiful art form.” Goodwin said he has long been attracted to the craftsmanship of Middle Eastern rugs — their designs, their feel and even the smell of the wool. “To me they are just oneof-a-kind,” he said. “They are magic carpets.” The carpet show will be on display from Friday, April 29, through Sunday, May 1, available to view from 10 am to 6 pm each day at the Thomas Goodwin Gallery, 34390 S. Hwy. 101, Cloverdale.

A game of chase invaders After months of focusing on the sorts of plants that people want to see in their gardens, the Lincoln County Master Gardeners will end their series of spring round tables on Thursday, April 28, with a look at those that are less desirable. “Incredible Invasives,” presented by Aaron Duzik, will guide participants on how to identify, remove and replace invasive plants on the Oregon Coast. Invasive plants are those that have been introduced from

outside the area, often but not always, by human activity. The natural enemies that held them in check back home are either absent or can’t live here, allowing the invasives not only to survive, but to aggressively out-compete native species. Duzik, an invasive species specialist for the Lincoln County Soil and Water District, will share 10 years of education and control experience with invasive species in Lincoln County. His Powerpoint program

promises to help guests be aware of harmful invasives, provide advice on eradication and recommend native plant alternatives. The round table will run from 10 am to noon at Newport Public Library, 35 NW Nye Street. Admission is free but guests should RSVP to the OSU Extension oﬃce in Newport at 541-574-6534 ext. 57411 to reserve seating and ensure that enough printed handouts are available.

Noise and the porpoise The plight of marine mammals in an increasingly noisy ocean will play out in surround sound on Saturday, April 23, with screening of “Sonic Sea” in Newport. Presented by the Oregon Chapter of the American Cetacean Society and Oregon Sea Grant, the 60-minute documentary explores the impact of industrial and military ocean noise on whales and other marine life. It tells the story of a former US Navy oﬃcer who solved a tragic mystery and

forever changed the way we understand our impact on the ocean. The ﬁlm is narrated by Rachel McAdams and features interviews with renowned ocean experts Dr. Sylvia Earle, Dr. Paul Spong, Dr. Christopher Clark and Jean-Michel Cousteau as well as musician and environmental activist Sting. The screening will be followed by a scientiﬁc panel discussion featuring Dave Mellinger and Joe Haxel of Oregon State University’s

Cooperative Institute for Marine Resources Studiesalongside Leigh Torres and Michelle Fournet of the Marine Mammal Institute. The program, which is free and open to the public, will start at 5:30 pm in the Hennings Auditorium at Hatfield Marine Science Center Visitor Center, 2030 SE Marine Science Drive.

one man’s beach

THE BEAVER MAN

C O M M E N TA R Y • B Y M A T T L O V E

e pulled his pickup truck next to mine in the graveled lot of a Seaside park overlooking an estuary. The truck was red and green, dented and ancient: a Ford from the Ford Administration. The neatly painted white lettering on the truck read: SAVE THE BEAVERS. YOU NEED THEM. THEY NEED YOU. I instantly recognized this wasn’t about big time college football and for that I was thankful. I was also thankful because I live for these random encounters with people. You know want I what my epitaph to read? “He would have rather been dead than incurious.” A conversation with this man was imperative. How could it not be? I wrote something called the Beaver State Trilogy and the new logo for my publishing company is a bucktoothed beaver holding a microphone like some furry beatnik poet. I love informing people that Oregon has the only two-sided state ﬂag in the nation and a golden beaver is on that other side. I once watched a beaver build a dam in a remote creek way up in a coastal watershed. It was probably the best silent hour I’ve ever spent in the woods. I think I may have derived my entire work ethic for creating a writing life from that transcendent experience. I asked if I could take a photograph of him standing by the truck. “Sure you can brother!” he said. “It’s all for the beavers and getting the word out!” The word? We started talking. Five minutes into our conversation, I knew I had met the world’s most passionate spiritual advocate for beavers and walked into one of the best Oregon stories of my life. His name is James Murphy and he owns a romping tan lab named Marley. He has a house in outer SE Portland but hated Portland now and rarely went back. He was a wandering man of the North Oregon Coast now, evangelizing for the protection of beavers. James riﬀed with the most interesting and unconventional grammar and I thought it the most beautiful stream-of-conscious speechifying

I’d heard in years. Who cares if it was almost impossible to quote him properly? Beavers don’t care about conventional grammar or proper quoting! They just want to be left alone, eat wood, build dams, create marshes and salmon rearing habitat, and play their antediluvian role in the ecology of healthy watersheds. James understood this perfectly and wanted to educate others about the beneﬁts of this maligned animal that was once nearly hunted to extinction because of a fashion trend. This crusade began a year ago after angels told him to take care of animals. “I’ve known for years about beavers,” said James, “and it was time to start doing something for them. I had to.”

James scouts the local creeks, wetlands and rivers for signs of beaver activity and also imagines their return to places where they are needed to restore damaged watersheds. He’s documenting beavers and beaver dams in some way that doesn’t involve conventional scientiﬁc documentation. He’s seeking, ﬁnding, observing and rhapsodizing. James is a “naturalist” of the very old school. At one point in our conversation, James broke out a little book with a cork-like cover. “It’s my Beaver Book,” he said, handing it to me. He told me he’s collecting names, telephone numbers and email addresses of people who will go to Washington D.C. and lobby for the protection of beavers. I

24 • oregoncoastTODAY.com • facebook.com/oregoncoasttoday • april 22, 2016

happily signed it and provided my contact information. I was surprised by how many names were in there. He’s been, well, busy as a beaver, and people are responding. James exploded into a smile when I asked if it would be okay to write up his story and help spread the word. The Word. “Yes brother!” he said. “Yes. Do whatever you can!” “I’m calling you the Beaver Man,” I said. “Yes I am!” Matt Love is the author/editor of 14 books about Oregon, including “The Great Birthright: An Oregon Novel.” They are available at coastal bookstores and through www.nestuccaspitpress.com.

The Beach Bark fund-raising walk will set off at 11 am on Saturday, April 23, from the D River Wayside and head south roughly half a mile to the Canyon Park Beach Access.
