The life of a munch-king Patrick Alexander Editor & Publisher
The return this Sunday of the Lincoln City Farmers Market to its winter home inside the Lincoln City Cultural Center comes as great news to assistant editor Quinn, who has always been rather partial to the marionberry fritters served up at the Depoe Baykery stall. He has, in fact, been known to take a running start at such treats from halfway across the room, clamping his teeth into the unsuspecting pastry like a flying piranha — but then again so have I. The love of food runs deep at the Oregon Coast and it is quite possible for snack connoisseurs to munch their way from one event to the next, all the way through the week. This Friday’s opening reception for the gyotaku exhibit at Newport’s Pacific Maritime & Heritage Center (see page 9), not only features wonderful fish prints on the walls but also promises outstanding hors d’oeuvres courtesy of Local Ocean Seafoods. Meanwhile, audience members at the opening night of “Social Security” at Lincoln City’s Theatre West might find their blood sugar depleted from laughing at all the naughty jokes (see page 17). Fortunately, they can replenish their energy levels with a choice of delectable treats provided by Captain Dan’s Pirate Pastry Shop, including a melt-in-themouth lemon bar that is guaranteed not to disturb the folks in the next row. And while snacks are not provided at the upcoming series of photo hikes offered by Lincoln City photographers Bob Gibson and Jeri Knudson (see page 12), the pair’s camera skills are such that they will have you making a humble mushroom found growing out from the side of a tree looking like a gourmet treat in no time at all. Bon appétit!

learn a little Get your paperwork in order Registration is now open for the 20th annual Newport Paper Arts Festival, which will offer workshops in decorative bookbinding, collage, nature printing and more from April 17 to 19. Twelve instructors will lead 18 full-day workshops on topics including surface design, monoprinting and photo-transfer at the Newport Visual Arts Center as well as other locations around the city. Presented by the Oregon Coast Council for the Arts, the festival is regarded as the largest paper arts festival on the Pacific Coast. “The Newport Paper Arts Festival has reached a new milestone,” Visual Arts Center Manager Tom Webb said, “Twenty years is a long time for any festival, and we work hard each year to keep the workshops fresh and accessible.” Some of the festival instructors are regional mixed-media artists, such as Sarah Gayle Plourde of Toledo and Moe Snyder of Seal Rock, while others come from farther afield. This year’s guest instructors include Margo Klass of Anchorage, the individual artist recipient of Alaska’s 2015 Governor’s Award for the Arts; and Jacqueline Sullivan of Cincinnati, one of 18 artists nationwide to become a Golden-Certified Artist for Golden Paint Company. An Instructors’ Exhibit will be on display in the Upstairs Gallery at the Visual Arts Center from March 6 to April 19, available to view from noon to 4 pm, Tuesdays through Saturdays. The
center will also host a book and DVD signing on Friday, April 17, starting at 5:15 pm. Festival brochures and registration forms are available at the center as well as art stores and galleries throughout Lincoln County. The documents can also be downloaded from the OCCA website, www.coastarts.org/ events/2015/04/newport-paper-arts-festival-xx.

Death and the ocean
O
ver my long years in residency at the Oregon Coast, I have taken to collecting newspaper articles that document oceanrelated deaths. Most involve tragic or senseless accidents of some predictable kind, but occasionally I find stories of unsuccessful suicide attempts. You never read accounts of the successful ones because journalistic tradition decrees the press not report them, lest it encourage others. Here’s an excerpt from my most recent addition to the collection, this one from a Chinook, Washington newspaper last year: SEAVIEW — In an apparent suicide attempt, a 25-year-old man walked fully clothed into the ocean early in the morning May 8. Another man, parked at the Seaview Beach approach, saw him and called 911. He said he tried to speak to him, but the man kept walking into the ocean. The other man stayed and kept an eye on him until emergency responders arrived. Fire District One and the South Pacific County Technical Rescue Team responded and sent a rescue swimmer in after the man. A personal water craft rescue vessel followed, and they pulled him from the water. The rescue took about half an hour. This particularly story fascinated me because the man who intervened and called
911 could have easily been me. I typically go to the beach in the very early morning, and in my 17 years of coastal living have observed several people doing very strange things at that hour. Very strange indeed. Nevertheless, I have never intervened, although I surely know that day is coming; I will act. Some of the more harrowing stories of death and the local ocean include: • The groom vanished by a wave off Cape Kiwanda while his bride took a photograph on the first day of their marriage. • The man in Lincoln City drowned while trying to rescue his dog from the waves. The dog survived. • The South Beach woman suffering from dementia apparently disappeared into the ocean. • The married couple from Portland celebrating their anniversary in Newport knocked off the South Jetty of Yaquina Bay by a wave. • The Filipino woman visiting her American boyfriend for the first time dragged away by the Neskowin surf as he was ready to propose. • The crabber last seen atop the breakers of the Alsea Bay bar after his boat capsized. His wife made it ashore. • Two Eugene teenagers on a school outing swept away off the rocks by a wave at Yachats. • And many more, every year. They always

keep coming. I have often asked myself: why compile these stories? My straight answer is: I don’t know. Over the years, some of these stories have worked their way into my writing and teaching, but that doesn’t mean when I first see them as news I exclaim, “Wow, I’ve got to clip that for use in a column, book or lesson about the ocean.” It doesn’t work that way for me. Morbid things have never interested me as a person or a writer. And when I say I want to end my sentient life by falling into Hart’s Cove on Cascade Head, I see that certainly not as dark or depressing, but rather as a culminating celebration of my life and desired reunion where all life began on earth — the sea. It also means I’ll return as rain that much quicker. Really, I had no idea where I was going with this meandering meditation on life and death connected to the ocean when I composed it entirely in my mind while walking with Sonny the husky at the ocean’s edge. Perhaps that is the point. The ocean doesn’t really belong to anything linear anymore; I doubt it ever has. Perhaps people don’t either. Matt Love is author/editor of 13 books about Oregon.

Sand hits the silver screen The history of Oregon’s publicly owned beaches will hit the big screen on Friday, Feb. 27, when the Manzanita Film Series presents the feature-length documentary “Politics of Sand.” The 2008 documentary, written by Oregon Coast author Matt Love, focuses on the political ebb and flow of efforts to keep the coast accessible to the public. The fight, which began with Governor Oswald West’s 1913 landmark legislation succeeded, but not without substantial effort. The film features interviews with many of the living key players as well as voices from the past. It was made by Portlandbased Anchor Pictures, directed by Tom Olsen and produced by the Cannon Beach History Center and Museum. The two-hour documentary covers nearly 150 years of history through archival footage, photographs and interviews, detailing the legislative actions taken by Governors Oswald West and Tom McCall. The screening will begin at 7:30 pm at Manzanita’s Hoffman Center, 594 Laneda

Valentine’s Day has come and gone but love is still in the air at Newport Public Library, which will present a free romantic comedy doublebill on Saturday, Feb. 28. The screening will begin at 10 am with “The Shop Around the Corner” and continue after a one-hour lunch break with “You’ve Got Mail” at 1 pm. Both films are based on the 1937 Hungarian play “Parfumerie” by Miklós László. “The Shop Around the Corner” is a 1940 film starring James Stewart, Margaret Sullavan and Frank Morgan. Set in Budapest in the years leading up to World War II, the film tells the story of two employees at a gift shop who can barely stand each another, not realizing they’re falling in love as anonymous penpals. “You’ve Got Mail” is a 1998 film directed by Nora Ephron,

Oregon’s Oldest Year-’Round Christmas Store!
One of the most beloved and widely read tales of recent years will be brought to life on Friday, March 6, as the Lincoln City Cultural Center hosts a stage version of Khaled Hosseini’s “The Kite Runner.” The book, which has sold more than 7 million copies around the world, portrays the relationship of two Afghan boys — Amir, a privileged Pashtun, and Hassan, a Hazara servant. Against a backdrop of 1970s Afghanistan in turmoil, Hosseini weaves a tale of class divides, violence, honor and regret. Actor Sorab Wadia will breathe life into the dramatic tale in two performances organized by the cultural center in partnership with Young Audiences New York and the Driftwood Library Foundation. Adapted and directed by Wynn Handman, the stage show mirrors the original Hosseini short story that formed the kernel of the bestselling tale and utilizes original Afghani music as a backdrop for the performance. Through the eyes of the young protagonist, Amir, Wadia takes the audience on a heartbreaking journey of friendship and betrayal in a society of severe class division, taking on the roles of eight characters along the way. The performance is part of the Literature to Life literacy program produced by The American Place Theatre. The production is book-ended by interactive discussions led by Brad Raimondo, who will explore themes including redemption and class systems. There will be two performances of “The Kite

Newport’s Pacific Maritime & Heritage Center unveils fish print exhibit By Nancy Steinberg What to do when you’re a 19th-Century Japanese fisherman, you’ve caught the fish of your life, you want to be able to memorialize your totally awesome catch, but cameras haven’t been invented yet? Simple. You apply a thin layer of paint to the fish, gently place rice paper on top, lift up and voilà! You have a print of the fish which masterfully and artistically preserves every scale and fin ray. The Japanese art of gyotaku (gyo=fish, taku=rubbing), or fish printing, originated with Jesuit priests in Japan who wanted to preserve images of the foliage around them for nature study. Fishermen adopted the practice, which has now evolved into a unique fine art form. The Pacific Maritime & Heritage Center on the Newport Bayfront has mounted a new exhibit of the gyotaku art of five Lincoln County artists, filling its gallery with a dazzling array of fins, tails and scales, as well as background information about the art form itself.
“All the artists used the gyotaku technique,” said local gyotaku artist Bruce Koike, “but all have a unique style and approach, and used different materials.” As the exhibit’s organizer, Koike asked the artists to submit multiple pieces to be juried into the show. The three jurors had a difficult time choosing among the many stellar works submitted, but ended up with a spectacular selection of works from the five artists, most of which depict local species. The variety of artists’ interpretations and approaches to the art form makes for a diverse and fascinating display. Many of the pieces are accompanied by information about the species depicted, providing mini-lessons in the biology and ecology of the fish. Koike himself has a number of pieces in the show, mostly of fish he caught himself locally. He uses beautiful rice papers and acrylic paints to depict every detail of the fish, right down to their tiny teeth. Eyes and some details get painted on after the print is made. One of his pieces is an incredible print of a ling cod carcass, in which every bone stands out in stark black on white paper, a simultaneous study in anatomy and nature’s beauty. Also in the

show is John Buchanan, who works for NOAA as a chief scientist aboard research cruises and uses fish printing as a creative outlet during port stops or down times. He prints West Coast species monochromatically on white fabric stretched over the frame, resulting in a clean simplicity that reveals the basic nature of each of his specimens. Leighton Blackwell, a well-known local artist, spearfishes to catch his subjects, paints them in a gyotaku-inspired style on reclaimed wood and then usually eats the fish. His favorite subjects are local rockfish species, spiny and full of personality. One particularly compelling large work, a white quillback rockfish on a stark black background, draws the eye immediately; I kept returning to this piece to study every detail of every spine. Newport-based watercolor artist Marion Moir is also represented in the show, with two pieces that are very different from her other work. One looks ancient, almost like an ink drawing on a yellowing piece of parchment. While a fish is the main subject, it is joined on the page by spiral

seashells. In another work, she uses fanciful colors not likely seen on the fish in life. All of the artists in the exhibit are self-taught except for Heather Fortner, who studied gyotaku with a Japanese master. Fortner spent 25 years in the U.S. Merchant Marine, working her way up to captain and traveling the world. Now based in Toledo, she leads fish-printing workshops nationwide and her work is found in many books, galleries and private collections. She incorporates elements of the fish’s habitat into her works, pressing delicate seaweeds onto the page along with the fish itself. Many of the pieces in the show are for sale, with a portion of the proceeds benefiting the museum. The exhibit is on display now through September 6, during the center’s regular hours. An opening reception with the artists will be held from 5 to 7 pm on Friday, Feb. 27, with Local Ocean restaurant providing seafood hors d’oeuvres. Wine will be available for purchase. A talk and demonstration of the art form will be given at the center on Sunday, March 29, 4-5:30 pm.

he hiking trail
Photo hops The triumphant mushroom shot • Photo by Gretchen Ammerman
Improve your photography skills by leaps and bounds by hitting the hiking trail Story by Gretchen Ammerman For the TODAY
Picture this — you are on a nature hike and suddenly come upon a waterfall, an ocean view or a particularly majestic spruce tree. Slightly breathless from the exertion and the beauty of the sight, you whip out your camera, eager to preserve the image to savor later and share with the poor unfortunates who missed seeing it in person. After you arrive home you review the photos excitedly — only to see that the images you captured are, in a word, underwhelming. If this experience sounds familiar, as it certainly does to me, you might benefit from a series of photo hike workshops with Jeri Knudson of JAKs Photography Studio and Bob Gibson of Blue Water Photography, offered from March 7 through August 16 on nature trails throughout the Lincoln City area. I met Jeri and Bob at the Lincoln City Regatta
Grounds trail, hoping to get a little insight as to why my waterfall photos end up looking like a pile of wet rocks and my majestic spruce trees lack majesty. “Perspective is so important,” Bob said. “You can take an image of a tree that is huge but looks small in a photo, or a tiny tree that looks huge.” “There’s also always more to the story too,” added Jeri. “I may look at the same tree and notice that the crevices and moss look beautiful too and choose to do a close up photo.” Ready to give it a try, I took a photo of a perfectly attractive mushroom and, as usual, the photo came out looking dull. “Think about the movement of the mushroom,” counseled Bob. “Try to capture that instead of simply taking a picture of an object.” Lo and behold, when I looked at the mushroom in that way, I moved to a different spot, got closer, and it made all the difference. “The challenge is
Jeri Knudson and Bob Gibson • Photo by Gretchen Ammerman
identifying what it is that is actually making you say ‘Wow,’ and just capturing that,” Bob said. “Like if you are taking photos at the beach, you have the ocean crashing and all of these other things going on and you have
to figure out how to tell that story. Oftentimes I’ll actually go in tight instead of trying to capture the whole view, like choosing a rock in the sand, because that’s part of the story and might help trigger some sensory reactions.”
12 • oregoncoastTODAY.com • facebook.com/oregoncoasttoday • february 27, 2015
There are certainly technical tricks involving things like f-stops and aperture settings, which Bob and Jeri are happy to explain, but the focus of the hikes is to help you look at scenes with a new eye. “The question we’re often asked, and it’s a good one, is ‘Do you have to have a big, fancy camera to take good photos?’” Bob said. “As far as we’re concerned, if you have an interest in photography and the walk, you can do just fine with the camera on your phone. We’ve been to meetings where a professional photographer presents a slide show and asks at the end what kind of camera people think they used, and it turns out they used their phone. The best camera is really the one you have with you.” The hikes last about two hours, after which participants meet at the Blue Water Photography Studio in Taft, where both Bob and Jeri have their works on display. During roughly an hour of studio time, participants can share their photos, ask questions and get a few more tips from
the instructors on how to get the most from their photos. Although the workshops are called photo hikes, participants needn’t worry if they are not accomplished hikers. “We don’t go very fast, because the focus of the workshops is photography,” Bob said. “The ‘hike’ is just to get to a place with things to photograph, although some of the destinations like Cascade Head and Drift Creek Falls will take a bit more endurance. We’re starting at the Regatta Grounds first because it’s the shortest and most manageable. But really, an interest in photography is more important than physical fitness; I can guarantee that neither Jeri nor I are going to run off into the woods at any point.” Registration is $20 per person. Space is limited to 12 photographers per hike ages 14 and up, and pre-registration is required. For the complete schedule of workshops and to register contact Blue Water Photography at 541-994-3405 or go to www.oregoncoast.org/ photo-hikes.

Siblings on strings Every day, throughout the world, exasperated parents can be heard telling their troublesome kids “Hey, quit ďŹ ddling with that!â€? It is safe to say that such a reprimand was never heard inside the home of the Voetberg family of Centralia, Washington, which has produced an award-winning brood of violin, guitar and cello players who perform together as The Voetberg Family Band. The eight brothers and sisters include in their number two national ďŹ ddle champions plus a West Coast at-picking
champion and, between them, have captured at least 10 West Coast ďŹ ddle championships. For more than eight years, the band has been performing its blend of Irish, Scottish, American, swing, jazz and classical music — and, on Sunday, March 8, will bring their show to the Oregon Coast as part of the Monday Musical Club of Tillamook concert series. The group will take to the stage at 2 pm in the Don Whitney Auditorium at Tillamook High School, 2605 Twelfth Street, Tillamook. Advance tickets are
$25 for adults or $20 for students, rising to $30 and $25 on the door. Tickets are available at the oďŹƒces of TLC Federal Credit Union and the Tillamook Chamber of Commerce or by sending a
check payable to the Monday Musical Club of Tillamook at 6415 Westwood Court, Tillamook, OR 97141. To order advance tickets with reserved seating, call 503842-2078.
Funds raised by the Monday Musical Club of Tillamook are used to sponsor master classes for Tillamook music students and fund a scholarship for the winner of the club’s annual talent competition.
The concert series will conclude on Monday, April 20, with a 7 pm performance from Quartetto Gelato, an ensemble of classically trained musicians, including a brilliant operatic tenor.
Racking up a Russian great The Newport Symphony Orchestra will celebrate the life and music of Russian composer Sergei Rachmaninoff in a pair of concerts this weekend, led by Resident Conductor David Ogden Stiers. Stiers, the former MASH star who has carved out a successful second career as a conductor, will begin the concert with a fascinating photographic tour of the Russian great’s life and work, with musical excerpts performed by the orchestra. The second half of the program will feature a full performance of Rachmaninoff’s “Symphony
No. 2 in E Minor,â€? which Stiers describes as “tuneful, haunting, wistful, and romantic.â€? In addition to his role as Maj. Charles Winchester in MASH, Stiers played major roles in TV series including “Innocents Abroadâ€? and “Murder She Wrote.â€?

A former monk and lifelong drummer will perform at the Lincoln City Cultural Center on Monday, March 2, singing traditional Sanskrit mantras with a modern, funky, yet deeply devotional twist. Girish began drumming at the tender age of eight, when his parents gave him a little red snare drum as a bargaining tool to stop him from banging on everything else in the house. In his teens, he started experimenting with pop, rock, jazz and orchestral music, but his first experience of music as sacred art came while playing with jazz bands in college. A college philosophy class inspired Girish to explore spirituality through Kundalini yoga, meditation and the study of Eastern scriptures. After graduation, Girish lived for five years in an ashram in the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee, giving
up music, taking the vows of a monk and spending hours each day chanting Sanskrit mantras. He thought he had given up music for his spiritual practice, but one day he happened upon a set of tablas at the ashram and was instantly compelled to play them. He went on to learn the art of Indian drumming at Siddha Yoga Ashram in New York and to study under tabla master Swapan Chaudhuri at
the Ali Akbar School of Music in Marin County, California. Girish and his band will take to the stage on Monday for a performance starting at 7 pm in the auditorium of the cultural center, 540 NE Hwy. 101. Tickets, $20, are available by calling 541994-9994 or by going to lincolncityculturalcenter. thundertix.com.

Bill Klein, the man behind Mr. Bill’s Trivia Show since 1984, will act as emcee and host, quizzing six-person teams on topics including geography, music, history and more. “There is always good competition at the Trivia Bee but you don’t have to be a trivia buff,” Klein said. “In fact, sometimes it is more about the age of players on your team. Teams with a mix of male and female and ages usually fare the best.” Raffle tickets will also be on sale at the event, with numerous prizes donated by area merchants. Funds raised from the event will help Altrusa International of Yaquina Bay continue its literacy and health programs for women and children in Lincoln County. “The Trivia Bee is one of our main fund-raisers and is really fun for all who participate,” said event chairperson Evelyn Brookhyser. “We are particularly excited to try to sign up 25 teams for our 25th year, the result of which will mean more support of our work for women and children in Lincoln County.” Team registration costs $150, with a deadline of April 15. An early-bird drawing will be held for those teams who register before March 31, with one team winning a special prize. To register a team, call Brookhyser at 541-265-8023.

You’re entitled to a good laugh
Time to adopt a stage persona People from their 20s to their 70s are being invited to try out for a role in the upcoming production from the Tillamook Association for the Performing Arts. “The Orphans,” written by James Prideaux, is a touching and playful study of what happens when two eccentric and immensely rich ladies who have lived in isolation for 25 years are suddenly confronted with an “outside world” they find difficult to comprehend, much less accept. Director Christian Chiola is looking for two women aged 40 to 70 to play the sisters; along with one male aged 20 to 40 for a major role and one male aged 30 to 70
for a minor role. Two very minor roles are also up for grabs, one for a female aged from 30 to 60; and one for a male aged 30 to 70. The show will run from May 22 to June 7. Auditions will be held at 5:30 pm, on Saturday, March 7, and 1 pm on Sunday, March 8, at the Barn Community Playhouse on the corner of 12th and Ivy in Tillamook. Audition packets are available at the Tillamook County Library or by emailing info@ tillamooktheater.com. For more information on TAPA, go to www. tillamooktheater.com.
Life is a complicated thing, but the latest offering from Lincoln City’s Theatre West shows that — from teenagers to senior citizens — there is one three-letter word that unites us all. Sex features prominently in “Social Security,” the Andrew Bergman comedy that opens at the theater on Thursday, March 5. The play opens with Manhattan art gallery owners Barbara and David Kahn, whose trendy big-city existence is turned on its head by the arrival of Barbara’s goody-goody sister, Trudy, and her uptight CPA husband, Martin, who are there to try to save their college student daughter from a sexually adventurous lifestyle. To make things even more complicated, Trudy has brought the sisters’ eccentric mother, Sophie, along for the ride. When Barbara and David introduce Sophie to their suave 90-something artist friend, Maurice, an offer to paint her portrait soon begins to brighten her life in ways she never expected. Director Bryan Kirsch
said the play contains adult material and might not be suitable for children. The play stars Tami Keller as Barbara, Debbie Gerber as Trudy, Ren Jacob as Martin, Richard Sogn as David, Wes Ryan as Maurice and Elizabeth Black as Sophie. Alongside Kirsch, Donna Morris serves assistant director, with Bruce Mace
as stage manager and Shelby Barton on lights and sound. The play will run from March 5 through March 28, with performances at 8 pm on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings and a 2 pm matinée on Sunday, March 22. Doors open half an hour before curtain and the theater is located at 3536 SE Hwy. 101. Tickets are $14 for adults,
$12 for seniors and students and $9 for children aged 12 and under. A special group discount is available at $10 per ticket for groups of 10 or more with a pre-paid reservation. Reservations are recommended for all performances. Call 541-9945663, leave a message and someone will call you back.

Rush into a trash decision
Stroll into March March has been known to come in like lion but the Yachats-based Coastal Gems Volkswalkers group has its chair and whip ready to tame the beast at its Tuesday, March 3, stroll in through historic Newport. The 10-kilometer walk is rated 2a for some hills but good footing all the way. It is a difficult route for wheelchairs and would
be moderately difficult for strollers. There is also a 5-kilometer option, which is rated a 1a for flat, solid surfaces. The group will meet at 8:55 am at the Yachats Commons to carpool to Newport. Walkers can also sign up at the Hallmark Inn in Newport at 9:45 am. The group walks in any weather, so come prepared.
Leashed pets are welcome as long as owners being water, cleanup materials and a 6-foot leash. For more information or directions, call Gene and Linda Williamson in Seal Rock at 541-5636721, Maryann Brown in Waldport at 541961-4279 or go to www. yachatscoastalgems.org.
Some things in life, like the Dubai Air Show or the Oregon state budgeting process, are simply so much fun that organizers limit them to taking place just once every two years. The Nehalem Bay and Estuary Clean Up is one such event. Last seen in 2013, it returns on Saturday, March 7, giving people the opportunity to spend a day making a lasting difference in the beauty, safety and habitat quality of the waterway. “The river needs us,” said organizer Alix Lee. “A clean bay and estuary are not only good for salmon and wildlife, but also a healthy estuarine habitat does our region proud. Help us pick up assorted debris in every imaginable shape, size, and color, and you’ll also learn about our region’s ecology and the potential threats posed by marine debris.” Orientation begins at 7:30 am at Wheeler Waterfront Park on Highway 101 in downtown Wheeler. Participants should bring drinking water and a snack or sack lunch as well as waterproof boots, work gloves and layers for the rain-or-shine event. A change of clothes is also recommended for any volunteers planning on attending the post-cleanup party, offering live
Trash talk The 2013 cleanup saw nearly 100 volunteers collect and sort an astonishing amount of marine debris, including: 15 yards of trash 2 yards of rigid plastic 1 yard of mixed plastic 96 gallons of glass 64 gallons of thin film
music, a chili and cornbread feast, root beer floats and socializing, starting at 3:30 pm at the Tsunami Grill, 380 Marine Drive, Wheeler. A new addition this year is the family-friendly cleanup site in Nehalem Bay State Park led by park ranger Shelley Parker. This will include fun-filled family activities and hands-on education. Also, science educator
