I

am no stranger to asking people to do silly things for photographs. Just last week I had the wonderfully patient Dick Cutler endlessly pouring wine into and out of glasses on the deck of his Flying Dutchman Winery in Otter Rock to promote the Newport Seafood & Wine Festival. A few months ago, a complete stranger agreed to help me out by crouching behind a log and holding a branch with a carving knife tied to the end to make it look like one pumpkin was stabbing another for our Halloween cover. But, when it comes to putting photo subjects through their paces, I take my hat o to TODAY contributor Gretchen Ammerman. This week’s front cover began its life as a crude, stick ďŹ gure drawing sent from me to Gretchen, showing a runner appearing to leap over PaciďŹ c City’s Haystack Rock in what I thought would be a clever use of perspective, but which would later turn out to be a agrant breach of the laws of both gravity and anatomy. Not one to be dissuaded by her editor’s limited grasp of reality, Gretchen proceeded to run our obliging Tillamook cross country team models up and down the beach in just about every conďŹ guration imaginable in order to get a shot that worked. Our thanks go to Arlo Bannon, Josh Richards, Eulises Cruz, Colin Atchison, Dovovan Zaugg and Andrew Jenck as well as coach Patrick Zweifel for their time — and their energy.

Less girth, more mirth This weekend’s Comedy on the Coast will again see Chinook Winds Casino Resort bring a clutch of comics to Lincoln City, including a performer who was forced to amp up his act when he slimmed down his waistline. For many years, Bob Zany tested stages across the US with his more than 300-pound frame. In 1991, he grabbed control and shed 175 pounds, making for a much healthier body but also robbing himself of a good half hour of his act once he took out all the fat jokes. But Zany re-invented himself as a wry, sarcastic, insulting-yet-lovable performer, seldom seen without his trademark cigar in hand. He has been a regular guest on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and performs more than 300 nights a year in the best clubs in the country. As if this weren’t enough, his Zany Report is also featured on the nationally syndicated Bob & Tom Radio Show. Also on stage this weekend is Zan

Aufderheide, who got her big break while working as a road comic in the Midwest. Aufderheide won a radio contest to open for Chonda Pierce, the Queen of Clean. The “one-minute joke” paid off big and turned into a national tour that took her from comedy clubs and open mics to playing theaters, arenas, and churches all over the country, including the stage of the Ryman Auditorium, home of The Grand Ole Opry. Aufderheide loves to laugh at the crazy things in life — beginning with her own, like growing up in lederhosen; living next door to a mental health clinic; and being baptized in an all-black church along with lots of little children half her size. While Aufderheide likes to keep her jokes clean, no topic is off limits for this weekend’s third act — Chris Strait. Born and raised in Los Angeles, Strait is a study in what happens

when a man spends his formative years standing out. From being the only white guy among black guys in the neighborhood, to being the only tall guy among short guys in the boxing gym, to being the only man among women in grad school, Strait became an expert on people. You might also have seen him on TRU-TV’s, “World’s Dumbest”. He tells it like it is, never losing his smile. The comedians will take to the stage at 8 pm on Friday, Feb. 28, and Saturday, March 1, at Chinook Winds Casino Resort, 1777 NW 44th Street. Tickets are $15 and audience members must be 21 or older to attend. To book tickets, call 1-888-MAIN ACT (1888-624-6228).

Sounds pretty seedy…

Better choco-late than never

The desire that the human heart feels for chocolate, wine and art is much too strong to be quashed by something as trivial as bad weather. So, when last month’s ice storm shut down the coast, organizers of “Your Heart’s Desire: A Celebration of Chocolate, Wine, and Art” simply rescheduled the devilishly decadent fund-raiser to Saturday, March 15. Proceeds from the event in Pacific City will go toward the Art Literacy Program that the Community Arts Project brings to Tillamook County schools. To mark the project’s 25th anniversary, this year’s celebration will feature a special art exhibit and sale, highlighting artwork created by local artists reflecting on the theme of change. Most of the pieces will be on three different sized birch panels but the show will also feature three-dimensional pieces, including sculpture, pottery and glass. Pieces will sell for $60, $100 and $120, with all proceeds supporting the Art Literacy Program.

The artwork will be for sale from noon until 5 pm at the Kiawanda Community Center, 34600 Cape Kiwanda Drive, with no admission charge. Artists will also be on hand to demonstrate their work from 1 to 3 pm. The art sale will continue at the evening chocolate and wine party, which runs from 6:30 to 10 pm and for which tickets are required. Complimentary wine, beer, sparkling cider, appetizers and desserts will be served during the evening event, which will also include a raffle, silent auction, student art and live music. Tickets are $25 advance or $30 at the door. For more information or to purchase tickets, call 503-392-4581, email info@communityartsproject. net, or go to www. communityartsproject.net.

The Lincoln County Small Woodlands Association will host its annual seedling sale on Saturday, March 1, at the Lincoln County Fairgrounds, offering a range of native tree seedlings and some non-tree species. This annual event is designed to provide the public with affordable seedlings, promote natural resource conservation awareness, and to increase forest owners’ knowledge and abilities as stewards of their land. Most seedlings will be $2 and species will include a mix of native and non-native conifers and possibly some hardwoods. The sale will start at 10 am at the fairgrounds, 633 NE 3rd Street, Newport, and run until 3 pm or until the seedling supply runs out. For more information, contact Jim Reeb at 541-574-6534 or Jim.Reeb@ oregonstate.edu.

Care to help? Operation Care Package is looking for donations and volunteers to help with its upcoming Fundraiser for Troops on Saturday, March 8, at the Lincoln City Community Center. The event, which runs from noon to 4 pm, will feature a spaghetti feed, raffle and silent auction. Organizer Dorothy Bishop is looking for donations for the auction; baked goods for the bake sale; and help with the dinner. Money donations are also always appreciated. For more information, call Bishop at 541-765-2297.

RUN FOR IT! Stretch your legs on the Three Capes Scenic Route

T

Story & photos by Gretchen Ammerman For the TODAY

here has, in recent years, been a surge in the popularity of races where runners have to crawl under barbed wire through mud pits, get colored powder thrown at them, or run all day and night — all for little more than bragging rights, a t-shirt, and a medal. For those who prefer their racing experiences to feature more beauty and less brutality, the new Three Capes Relay will provide it in spades. And, the race entry fees will be going to help motivate future runners. The event, which will be held on Saturday, March 1, is the brainchild of Tillamook High School’s cross country coach Patrick Zweifel and is a fundraiser for the team. “Relays when I was growing up were some of my best memories,” said the Tillamook

native. “Part of the appeal is that they can be as easy or difficult as you want to make them.” The race, which has been separated into five legs, will begin next to Cape Meares Lake near Tillamook and wind 26 miles south along the Three Capes Scenic Route before ending at Webb Park Campground in Pacific City. “The terrain is unique and very challenging,” Zweifel said. “But if you do it with a team, you can have your stronger runners do the more difficult legs.” To help with planning, the race website has descriptions of each of the legs, which vary in distances from just over four miles to just over seven, with levels of difficulty that range from easy to very difficult. The race can be

on the cover run solo or with a relay team of two to five participants. “We have one father and daughter team,” Zweifel said. “The father is going to run four of the legs and the daughter one.” To give more people the chance at a first-place finish, the race has categories like business and family, and Clydesdale for runners over a certain weight. “We also have team names to make it fun,” Zweifel said. “With all the variety and the beautiful course, I think people will have a great time and make this a real signature event for Tillamook County.” Although Zweifel is hoping that the race will be enough of a success to generate funds for the cross country team to take a trip to the Grand Canyon and purchase strength workout equipment, the race is primarily part of his quest to get the kids he coaches involved with running more often than just during track season. “There’s more to coaching then just coaching,” he said. “You need to get kids motivated to work hard. All this other stuff is just to get them involved; if you get kids to run year round, they are going to be more successful. Tillamook has a really strong and rich history in cross country but the team hadn’t finished in the top 10 in the state for 20 years, and this last year we got fifth, so that’s pretty exciting. In the next two years, I think we can win states.” And the learning opportunities the relay provides are not limited to the kids on the cross country team. “We’ve got kids involved at all levels of helping make this happen,” Zweifel said. “Three are doing this as their senior project. There is lots of marketing, planning, background work. Then of course they’ll be doing lots of the dirty work on race day.” But the main focus is, of course, on running. “We’re trying to create an exciting program that kids will want to be part of,” Zweifel said, adding: “My goal is to make it so that every little kid in Tillamook County won’t be able to wait to start school so that they can be a part of our running program.”

Online registration is available until Friday, Feb. 28. Although the t-shirt ordering date has passed, a limited number of t-shirts will be available at the race on a first-come-first-served basis.

For the TODAY

My camera has barbecue sauce on it. My notebook has barbecue sauce on it. My pen has barbecue sauce on it. Ditto, my hands and my face. And don’t get me started about my nineyear-old son’s hands and face and clothes. We’re in barbecue heaven at Pig Feathers in Toledo. Now in its seventh year of serving up ribs, wings, pulled pork, burgers and more on Main Street, Pig Feathers is thriving, beloved by the local community and travelers alike. Thanks to a glowing writeup in a Fodor’s travel guide that called Pig Feathers the best barbecue restaurant in the Pacific Northwest, pilgrimages from farther afield are becoming more common. How did the magic happen here? Stu Miller has always loved to cook, and he developed a particular talent for barbecue — even going so far as to be crowned Oregon State Grand Champion in one competition. He was still an amateur at this point; he and his wife, Becky, held day jobs in the Portland area in fields unrelated to food. Although everyone in the family received jars of barbecue sauce for Christmas every year, he was definintely not

making a living as a barbecue chef. After many years of managing other people’s businesses, Stu decided it was time to turn his passion for cooking into a business of his own. Becky and Stu were feeling ready for a big change, and they took the leap. They sold Sweet, his Slather everything and sank all (medium hot), of their resources into or the Ouch!

“I Love You Because”

Megan Walters, Pete Theodore, Melissa McDonn ald and Noel Su tton

Let me count the ways ... By Nancy Steinberg For the TODAY

L

eft hanging by the title of Porthole Players’ new musical production at the Newport Performing Arts Center? I can help fill in the blanks a little. Here’s why you’ll love the show itself, opening this weekend.

1. Because … of the clever story line “I Love You Because” ran Off-Broadway in New York in 2006, to excellent reviews. No less an authority than the New York Times said the show is “filled with wit and zest,” and called it “terrific, refreshing fun.” The Wall Street Journal said “I Love You Because is everything an Off-Broadway musical should be! A charming piece of work that will send you home smiling!” The show has now been produced all over the world, from London to Melbourne, from Florida to Canada, in five languages. The show’s plot is loosely based on Jane Austen’s “Pride and Prejudice” but set in New York City, and with gender roles cleverly reversed. Fitzwilliam Darcy (did you know that that was Mr. Darcy’s first name?) becomes Marcy Fitzwilliams, a free-spirited photographer agonizing over a breakup. She is set up on a double blind date with greeting card writer Austin Bennett (a sly reference to Jane Austen, perhaps?), who is smarting from an ugly breakup himself. While they don’t hit it off right away, their relationship grows as Marcy helps Austin write poetry to try to win his ex-girlfriend back. Their romance is paralleled by that of Diana and Jeff, who start out as “friends with benefits” and consider progressing to something more. Angst and hilarity (and a bit of naughtiness) ensue. The show’s authors, Ryan Cunningham (lyrics) and Joshua Salzman (music), have stated that the show explores “the notion that in order to find love you must move past your preconceived notions of what love is going to be for you and embrace all of its surprises, both good and bad. Because it’s easy to say, ‘I love you anyway,’ but hard and all the more rewarding to say, ‘I love you because.’” ld na on cD elissa M

Justin Atkins and

M

2. Because … of the catchy and emotional music Director Erik Furuheim was initially attracted to the show because of its terrific musical numbers (the show garnered a Drama Desk nomination for Best Lyrics). “When I first heard the soundtrack, I fell in love with almost every song in the show,” he said. From the bitter breakup number “What Do We Do it For” to the adorable “Actuary Song” presenting a mathematical formula for finding Mr. Right by first finding Mr. Wrong, the team of Salzman and Cunningham have crafted winners in every scene. Furuheim himself admits that he gets choked up at every rehearsal when it comes to the emotional number “But I Do.”

3. Because … of the top-notch cast The small cast (six roles) is a who’s-who of Newport theater. Jim Erickson (Austin Bennett) returns to the stage after triumphant appearances as Frank N. Furter in “The Rocky Horror Show” and Judas in “Jesus Christ Superstar.” The role of Marcy Fitzwilliams is played by Megan Walters, whose incredible voice and stage presence were seen most recently when she played Ulla in “The Producers.” Justin Atkins (brilliant in “The Producers,” “Hamlet,” and dozens of other memorable lead roles) plays Austin’s brother, Jeff, and Melissa McDonald, in her first lead role, appears as Marcy’s roommate, the quirky actuary Diana Bingley. The cast is rounded out by Pete Theodore (Emile de Becque in last spring’s “South Pacific”) and Noel Sutton (also seen in “South Pacific”), both in multiple roles. “I don’t think I’ve ever worked with a better cast,” Furuheim said. “They’re phenomenal. They’re growing at every rehearsal.”

4. Because … of the band Not only is the music catchy and creative, it’s difficult to master, according to Furuheim. But that’s no problem for the show’s awesome band, presided over by Music Director Howard Lackey, whose previous credits include “My Fair Lady,” “Oliver,” “Company,” and “The Producers.” Local keyboard genius Milo Graamans is on board, as are Ron Green, bass; Rick LeDoux, drums; Jim Kuoni, guitar; and Peter Hinsbeeck, woodwinds, all veterans of musical theater and pops and jazz performance in Newport.

5. Because … it only runs for a short time As usual ’round these parts, theater gems come and go fairly quickly. The show runs February 28 to March 16 only, and because it is staged in the small studio theater within the Newport Jim Erickso Performing Arts n an Megan Wal d Center, tickets are ters limited. Get them before they’re gone at the Performing Arts Center box office, by calling 541-265-2787, or on the web at www. coastarts.org.

Ready to scarf down lunch? ‘Charlie’ scarf artist Merrily Burger will be the featured speaker at the Thursday, March 6, lunch meeting of the Coastal Arts Guild, where she will talk about the process of creating wearable pieces of art that demand to be touched and felt as well as seen. Burger, of Gleneden Beach, creates her scarves by combining a wide range of fabrics — from vintage silks and textured velvets to smooth satins and sections cut from thrift store ďŹ nds. They are a mixture of new and recycled, some with bold prints, some with tiny checks, some with stretchy knits and chion. The lunch will start at 11:30 am in the 2nd oor meeting room at the Newport Visual Arts Center, 777 W. Olive Street.

While there are two types of the disease, this campaign will focus on Type 2 diabetes and the ways in which lifestyle changes including nutrition and exercise can help to improve the condition and possibly reverse it.

Come and play with fused glass...

Posters should be no larger than 8.5 by 11 inches, and need to be display-ready at time of submission. The deadline for submission is Thursday, March 6. Posters and entry applications can be submitted to the Bay City Arts Center on Thursdays from 10 am to 1 pm, or by appointment. Entries will be displayed at the Tillamook Regional Medical Center and the winning selection will be featured in the Diabetes Alert Day outreach and promotion materials. For more information, contact Leeauna Perry at 503-377-9620 or baycityartscenter@ gmail.com.

Wonder

Toledo galleries open their doors to the curious during First Weekend

I

f you’re curious about how a town the size of Toledo supports such a vibrant artistic scene, this weekend is the perfect time to find out, as galleries and studios open their doors for a First Weekend dedicated to the theme of “Wonder.”

SolaLuna Gallery

Running interference During First Weekend The Yaquina River Museum of Art will welcome Bill Shumway, artist and owner of Pegasus Gallery in Corvallis. Shumway is the featured artist of the museum’s current exhibit, with his painting “Metolius” on loan from board member Richard Nichols. He will give an informal talk about his art at 2 pm on Saturday, March 1, at the School House exhibit space, 151 NE Alder Street. Refreshments will be served. Shumway works primarily in acrylic and interference pigments — transparent, glass-impregnated acrylics that refract separate prism colors. He employs them in almost all of his acrylic works. He enjoys experimenting with all kinds of media, however, including sculpture, drawing and even painting with heated copy toner and teas. During First Weekend, the museum will be open from noon to 5 pm on Saturday and Sunday. The show will be up through March 30 and can be viewed every Wednesday through Sunday from noon to 4 pm. For more information, call 541-336-1907.

This month’s featured artist, Sarah Gayle of SolaLuna Gallery, will be showcasing the first items in a new clothing line called Troublemakers Trousseau — up-cycled couture created from secondhand materials and aimed at the romantic heart. Imagine lace, old linens, leather, corsets and menswear designed with a nod to the past and an edgier look into the future. “We want people to wonder at the lovely things that can be made when you take perceived restrictions (such as something being second hand) and make them your opportunities to be creative,” Gayle said. Gayle’s partner Wayne Plourde will present a collection of poetry full of ideas to wonder about; and will also host an open mic from 1 to 3 pm on Sunday. “Come early and sign up to read something that makes you wonder,” he said, “or just come and be entertained.” SolaLuna Gallery is located at 147 N. Main Street. For more information, call 541632-3236.

Gallery Michael Gibbons Meanwhile, Michael Gibbons will be celebrating wonder with a painting of the first fresh spring blossoms of his neighbor’s trees, a sight he said makes him contemplate Mother Nature’s ability to renew each year. Gallery Michael Gibbons is located at 140 NE Alder Street and will be open 11 am to 5 pm Saturday, March 1, and Sunday, March 2.

For more information, call 541-336-2797 or go to www.michaelgibbons.net.

Ivan Kelly Gallery-Studio will be open from 11 am to 5 pm on Saturday, March 1; and noon to 5 pm on Sunday, March 2, located one block above Main Street at 207 East Graham Street.

The Gallery Lastly, First Weekend guests are invited to wonder at the dedication it must have taken for Jim and Sandy Bruster to convert the historic downtown building at 109 Main Street into a live/work artist space now called simply The Gallery. The large, open loft-style space mixes traditional living space, art studio and art displays. It stands out thanks to the hand-carved sea captain and giant metal flower sculpture in the front window. The Gallery will be open from 10 am to 4 pm on Saturday. For more information, email thegallery109@gmail.com.

A less in-tents way to camp For an activity that promises to take you away from it all, camping sure comes with a lot of kit. But, for people who want a taste of the outdoors without having to cede their entire garage to a collection of tents, sleeping bags and cooking stoves, the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department has developed “Let’s Go Camping!â€? Aimed at people that don’t have their own equipment, the program oers a weekend of camping, including loan of all the kit, for just $30 per family. This summer, the program will oer 12 weekends of camping at various state parks including Cape Lookout State Park and South Beach State Park. As well as a tent, sleeping bags, sleeping bag

liners, mattress pads and use of a camp stove, the $30 fee includes ranger-led activities for parents, children, grandparents, grandchildren and all camping novices. Sta members and trained volunteers are on hand around the clock to give guidance to camping newbies. The parks department sends families a list of appropriate foods to bring but also typically provides Dutch oven biscuits on Saturday morning; ďŹ xings for s’mores to enjoy around the campďŹ re Saturday night; and typically Dutch oven cinnamon rolls on Sunday morning. Pre-registration and payment are required, with registration opening March 4. For more information, call 1-888-953-7677. Families are asked not to bring pets, alcohol or electronic games.

Spend a day at the bay With the winter ice storms now a distant memory, the Yachats-based Coastal Gems are inviting all comers to take a stroll ’round Depoe Bay on Tuesday, March 4. The group will meet at 9 am at the Yachats Commons to carpool to the Depoe Bay, and participants can also gather at the Sea Hag restaurant at 10:15 am. The gems walk in any weather, so

come prepared. The 10-kilometer walk includes three loops and is rated 2b for some hills and some areas of rough or uneven surface. It is diďŹƒcult for wheelchairs or strollers. Those who want a shorter walk can choose to complete just one or two of the loops. Pets are welcome as long as owners bring cleanup

A tide and tested solution

Leo Kuntz

The Thursday, March 6, meeting of the Mid Coast Watersheds Council in Newport will feature a presentation from engineering specialist Leo Kuntz on how improvements in tide gate technology can help increase salmon habitat. Closing off portions of estuaries to salt water to increase coastal agricultural land also closes off much of the type of environment needed by fingerling coho salmon. Working with many different salmon restoration groups and organizations, Kuntz has designed, manufactured and installed several tide gates up and down the West Coast. These gates are able to mitigate high tides and allow more water to create more fish habitat than previously installed devices could manage. Installations in the Coos Bay area, Tillamook Bay and Northern California have served to restore critical salmon habitat. This has been a very successful partnership with growers and landowners who used to face a choice of tide or no tide on their property. Kuntz, of Nehalem Marine, will present his experience and designs and answer questions. Light snacks will be served. MidCoast Watersheds Council is a Newportbased nonprofit organization dedicated to restoration and protection of watersheds in the central coast area, in the context of healthy local communities. The Council meets the first Thursday of each month, at 6:30 pm, at the Central Lincoln PUD, 2129 North Coast Highway in Newport, across the highway from Safeway.

A pair of new classes at the Lincoln City Community Center aim to help people improve their core strength and restore movement in their feet, legs and hips. Both “Balance, Strength, and Coreâ€? and “Healthy Feetâ€? are taught by Cathy Neuschafer, a certiďŹ ed personal trainer who is also a healthy foot practitioner and a specialist in restorative exercise. “I know so many people who have limited abilities or suer pain because of lack of movement,â€? Neuschafer said. “The body is a machine, and you can’t enjoy optimal health without performing basic maintenance on your body, just like you need to maintain your car. Natural movement is critical to the health of your human machine.â€? Neuschafer was led to her new role as trainer through personal experience. Five years ago, she found herself 60 pounds overweight, tired,

with aching hips, no muscle tone and “just feeling lousy.â€? She began her journey back to health by losing weight and starting a ďŹ tness regimen to build muscle and get moving. Neuschafer became so enthusiastic about health and ďŹ tness she decided to pursue personal training certiďŹ cation from ACE Fitness with the purpose of helping others feel good, too. The goal of the “Balance, Strength, and Coreâ€? class is to develop supple and stable muscles in all areas of the body using body weight and speciďŹ c exercises to increase balance and innervate the core. The goal is to lengthen, strengthen and nourish all the muscles of the body and increase joint range of motion. Each week will focus on a dierent area, starting with lower body and repeating every seven weeks. The “Healthy Feetâ€? class will focus on gentle, eective exercises and stretches

designed to help restore movement, strength and healthy tissue in the feet, legs and hips. This class is designed to help with pain from bunions, plantar fasciitis, and tight, sore muscles in the feet, knees, hips and lower back. “Balance, Strength, and Coreâ€? is oered from 4 to 5 pm on Mondays and “Healthy Feetâ€? takes place from 4 to 5 pm on Thursdays Neuschafer will also hold a free “Introduction to Alignmentâ€? class on the ďŹ rst Saturday of the month to discuss this growing ďŹ tness movement and answer questions. The free workshops will be held from 10 am to 11 am on March 1, April 5 and May 3. Contact Neuschafer at 541992-0878 or e-mail cathy. neuschafer.com. More information is available at the Lincoln City Community Center, 2150 NE Oar Place, 541-994-2131, www.lincolncity.org.

his week sees the release of a new book from the Oregon Coast that tells the story of the area’s surfing culture in vivid color. “Oregon Surfing: Central Coast” by Scott and Sandy Blackman focuses on the pioneer surfers of the 1960s and ’70s, starting with the formation of the Agate Beach Surf Club in 1964-65. The book covers 50 years’ of surf contests, starting in 1965 at Agate Beach and running through the Longboard Cowabunga contests of Otter Rock to modern events such as “The Gathering” at Newport’s South Beach and the big wave contests at Nelscott Reef near Lincoln City. The last chapter in the book looks at how surf culture has changed over the years to embrace multi-generational surfing families, female surfers and new variations, including stand-up paddleboarding, kitesurfing, windsurfing and the use of personal watercraft by big wave surfers. Scott and Sandy Blackman were born and raised along the Central Oregon Coast. Scott is a well-known photographer, who began surfing at the age of 26 after returning from the Air Force in the summer of 1964. Never having surfed before, he selected the cove at Agate Beach for his first time.

“I was influenced by the book and movie “Gidget” and the surfing music of the Beach Boys,” he said. “Surfing was in the air culturally and I wanted to see if the waves in this area were surfable. I had a friend drive me to Salem and I bought my first surfboard from Sears. I picked the cove at Agate Beach because I felt it would provide some protection as a new surfer. I wasn’t very athletic but I wanted to surf. I had no wet suit and there were no leashes on the boards in 1964.” Soon, the local Agate Beach neighborhood boys joined him. By 1965, the Agate Beach Surf Club was established and grew to include about 20 boys aged from 12 to 18. Early members of the club included Bill Waterman and Steve Hall, both of whom joined at the age of 15. “I wasn’t very good at it. I wore glasses,” Hall said. “These guys accepted me and took me in. It changed my Life.” “The ocean taught me the most respect for nature,” Waterman said. “Once you’re in, it’s like being a gang member. Once you do it, it’s, like, instilled in you. You’re in for life.” Sandy, who attended Newport High School, grew up with many of the surfers and remembers the impact the Agate Beach Surf Club had on the students and the community.

Years later, Scott met Sandy, who was a teacher and counselor with the Lincoln County School District as well as a writer and a mixed media artist. They married and started their art business, Shamana Arts. Together, the couple began to restore the old photos of the Agate Beach Surf Club members and pioneer surfers that Scott started taking in the 1960s. Along the way, Sandy began interviewing pioneer surfers and writing their stories. Today, they have a very popular Facebook site called Oregon Surfing: Past and Present, through which they have shared close to 500 surfing images and stories. The site includes historic images by Scott and other photographers, surfing memorabilia and old newspaper clippings as well as modern pictures of surfing. “Oregon Surfing: Central Coast” is one of the first books to be developed for Modern Images of America a new series from Arcadia Publishing, which specializes in documenting local history. Scott and Sandy are already working on the second surfing book for Arcadia Publishing, “Oregon Surfing: North Coast.” It will cover 50 years of surfing in Pacific City, Cannon Beach and Seaside, and will document the influences that Portland, Washington and California surfers had on the North Coast surfers.

Married to the ocean

achael Thacker has spent at least half of her 12 wedding anniversaries alone. Likewise, plenty of Valentine’s Days, birthdays and the like. She’s used to spending nights alone and attending her daughters’ dance recitals solo. That’s just the way life goes when you’re one of the rare women married to a man who makes a living saving people’s lives in conditions that could just as easily end his. That, of course, is not why she earned the title of Spouse of the Year for Coast Guard District 13. But maybe it oughta be. I met Rachael on a gray Monday morning. Her living room buzzed with the preschoolers she looks after. A snowman brightened the picture window and there were all the toys necessary to keep the tykes Rachael Thacker with husband and U.S. Coast Guard Surfman, Russell Thacker entertained. And front and center above it all hung the framed document certifying husband Russell Thacker as a U.S. Coast Guard surfman.

Rachael, 32, was pregnant with their ďŹ rst child when Russell joined the Coast Guard. She had just ďŹ nished reading a book about Coast Guard helicopter crashes. “I said, ‘Please just don’t do helicopters. I couldn’t take that.’â€? Instead, he became a boatswain mate — or boat driver. And last spring, after long and intense training, the Coast Guard rewarded him with the title of surfman, making him one of only about 100 active surfmen in the country. Surfmen are the guys who operate the life-saving boats in 20-foot seas and winds ripping to 60 knots. These are the guys who will go out to sea to save someone’s life when most of us won’t even venture out the front door. “He made surfman on April 1, April Fool’s Day,â€? Rachael said, between soothing a 2-year-old, supervising “Ring Around the Rosieâ€? and inspecting a diaper. “I try not to be scared because I know they spend a lot of time getting prepared for that situation so that if something does happen, they know what to do. “Last week, they had a boat go over. No one panicked or fell out. He came home and told me. I was a little more excited about it than he was.â€? Which is the way it often goes. The family was here barely a year when a couple was swept to their deaths from the South Jetty on Yaquina Bay. That afternoon, Russell stopped at home to warn her about the dangers of the jetties and to stay away from them. “That was the scariest ‌ As soon as he ďŹ nished having that conversation with me, he said had to go out on the jetty tips to look for the bodies. I was,

‘Wait a minute, you just told me how dangerous it is for me and you have to go out there?’ I wasn’t very happy. But for him it is dierent. He’s like, ‘I’m trained for it. I have special gear.’ He was trying to reassure me.â€? Rachael won the title of Coast Guard Spouse of the Year (sponsored by Military Spouse magazine) for the district that covers Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Montana. She was nominated for the work she does for the community, like providing day care six days a week and using her own money to make “I Support Newport Coast Guardâ€? window decals. The decals are her way of saying she’s proud to be living in a community recognized as a U.S. Coast Guard City USA, and proud to be a part of the community that is the U.S. Coast Guard. Even on those occasions when celebratory toasts are missed, the candles go unlit or she applauds her daughters in the audience alone. “The hard moments are when the kids are asleep and it’s just me in bed at night. That’s when you can’t stay busy. And you can’t talk yourself out of it and there’s a big storm going on and you’re wondering ‘is he out on a boat?’ If I’m scared and I’m at home, that’s when it’s hard for me. I wonder how it is aecting him. If I could, I would tell everyone to think twice. When you have to go out and get saved, someone’s dad and husband is out on the water saving you.â€?

She lives in Newport, where she freelances for a number of regional and national publications, as well as the occasional post for her blog loritobias.com.

Hi, folks

in concert

Lincoln City Cultural Center presents a roots music double bill There’s only so long that any self-respecting troubadour can travel the world with guitar in hand before giving in to the magnetic pull of the stage at the Lincoln City Cultural Center. And so, John Craigie, a singer, songwriter and storyteller who has “lived the life romantic” for the past decade, will, on Saturday, March 1, bring his show to Lincoln City. This stellar evening performance will begin with a set by local John Craigie (left) and Tom O. guitarist Tom Owczarzak, aka “Tom O.” Craigie stays true to the essence of folk bringing his music to nearly every corner music, and the traditions of the seminal of the planet. His fans span generations, writers of the past century.

singer-songwriter whose musical journey begins in the wellspring of the blues but ranges far and broadly from there. Tom O. delivers in his “One man Show” with dexterity, energy and passion as he presents a range of musical relationships with humor and emotion. Tom O. has played the guitar since the late ’60s, being of the last generation of teenage working musicians before “disco killed the live band.” In recent years, he has worked to bring the joy of creating music to the young people of Oregon through the Americana Project.

Oh, Danny boy... The auditorium at the Lincoln City Cultural Center can be a daunting place for a performer but we think Danny O’Flaherty will be able to cope with the pressure when he visits on Monday, March 3. After all, his previous audiences have included Israeli President Chaim Herzog, US President Ronald Reagan and Pope John Paul II. It’s fair to say that O’Flaherty has come a long way since his days growing up in Connemara, Ireland, where he first developed the love for the music and songs that were to become his guiding light. O’Flaherty emigrated to the U.S. in the early 1970s and started bringing Irish folk music

to folk venues around the country, sharing the stage with many of the Irish and American folk musicians of the era. Through his stories and songs, O’Flaherty delivers a world perspective through the eyes of an Irishman. O’Flaherty, who sings in both Irish Gaelic and English, still clings to the old traditional airs, but is also inspired to sing his own heartfelt folk compositions. With every performance, he strives to bring a Celtic connection to the world. The March 3 show will begin at 7 pm in the auditorium of the center, 540 NE Hwy. 101. Tickets, $15 in advance or $17 at the door, are available by calling 541-994-9994. For more information, go to lincolncityculturalcenter.org.
