Chalks away! If you have a hankering to go crazy with a piece of chalk on the sidewalks surrounding the Lincoln City Cultural Center, you might want to hold off until Saturday, July 12, when your efforts might win you a prize rather than a friendly warning from a passing police officer. That’s when the center will present “Chalk on the Wild Side!” its first-ever sidewalk chalk art competition, designed to bring out the inner artist in people of all ages. From 10 am to 3 pm, the sidewalks surrounding the center, located at 540 NE Hwy. 101, will become blank slates for the artistic creations of the young and the young-atheart. Judging will take place at 3 pm with prizes on offer for the best entries in each age bracket: 3 to 6; 7 to 11; 12 to 17; and 18 and older. Vendor booths, including the gourmet hot dog stand Who Let the Dogs Out, will be set up on the lawn. Booth spaces are available for $25 and must be pre-registered. Registration for the sidewalk chalk art competition is $10 and includes a piece of and chalk and the rights to a 3-foot-square piece of sidewalk for the duration of the event. Chalk craft workshops will also be held for kids aged 3 to 10 at a cost of $5. Registration forms can be picked up at the center or downloaded from its website, www.lincolncity-culturalcenter.org. The planning committee is seeking volunteers to assist with set-up, registration, monitoring and cleanup. To volunteer or get more information, contact Rose Mignano at 541-994-9994 or rose@lincolncity-culturalcenter.org.

Time is running out to see an Artisan Spotlight Show featuring the glasswork of Mary Young at Newport’s Yaquina Art Association Gallery. Young, who grew up in Seattle, stumbled upon fused glass when her father bought a kiln. She started experimenting and realized all the amazing things she could do in the medium. Young loves creating fused glass artwork and ﬁnds joy in creating color combinations that just sing together. She also loves creating monochromatic art pieces. Inspired by nature and animals, Young loves happy things and feels that her best works are those that bring a smile and a laugh. Having lived in Vancouver, Washington,

and Portland, before escaping the big city to move to the coast seven years ago, Young loves the slower pace of life and the community of artists that live here. The free show runs through Friday, July 4, and is available to view from 10 am to 5 pm daily at 789 NW Beach Drive.

Toledo’s art community will be delving into “the blue briny” as they celebrate all the ocean has to offer during this month’s First Weekend, with galleries and studios throughout town throwing open their doors on Saturday and Sunday, July 5 and 6. This month’s featured artist is Heather Fortner, who will be displaying gyotaku prints of ocean fish and seaweeds in her Sea Fern Studio at 321 SE Pine Street. Fortner will also be showing items made from beach finds, such as shadow boxes of marine life, kelp weavings and multi-media kelp constructions, as well as a collection of Kelp Girls and handmade sea grass paper. Meanwhile, at his Signature Gallery, Michael Gibbons will be featuring, “Laguna Gold,” a plein air oil painting in which he captures a turbulent Pacific Ocean as it crashes against rocks on a California beach. The gallery, located at 140 NE Alder Street, will be open from 11 am to 5 pm on Saturday and noon to 5 pm Sunday. Complimentary Oregon wines and cheese will be served. Fellow oil painter, and signature member of the American Society of Marine Artists, Ivan Kelly will be showcasing his painting “December Evening” depicting Newport’s harbor. Kelly’s gallery, located at 207 East Graham Street, will be open from 11 am to 5 pm on Saturday and noon to 5 pm on Sunday. And the many works on display at Becky Miller Studio will include her first kelp painting — the one that captured her imagination and launched her obsession with painting kelp and tide pools.

My list of awesome sights

ot long ago, I stood near the south jetty on the Columbia River and watched a sea lion surf inside a translucent teal wave. To me, he appeared almost happy as he rolled his massive body in rhythm with the watery undulations. I quickly registered it as one of my Top 100 Awesome Sights I’ve witnessed in all my ramblings along the Oregon Coast’s socialist beaches. I’ve written about many of these sightings, but not all of them. Some of them defied description or narrative. In celebration of my impending 10,000th visit to an Oregon Coast beach since I moved here in 1997, here’s my list of the most memorable observance in no particular order: • Watching a woman run into the surf, take off her wedding ring and fling it in the ocean. • Seeing a $50,000 pickup truck that nearly ran Sonny the husky over get stuck in the sand and presumably swept away to the bottom of the continental shelf. • Discovering an ingenious fountain made from kelp. • Witnessing a fifth grader from a Hillsboro elementary school see the ocean for the first time. He threw himself down to the sand and started making angels. It was the ultimate definition of bliss. • Coming across an installation of approximately 200 driftwood sculptures erected overnight. The artist(s) signed his or her name in sand as the “Sea God.” They also instructed me to “dance.” I did. • Taking in Hart’s Cove with all of my senses for the first time and instantly recognizing that I would end my sentient life there. • Watching an old prospector pan for gold in the surf. • Turning around and seeing three coyotes 50 feet behind me and my three dogs on Nestucca Spit. They had followed us undetected for half a mile. • Every time I read the Matt Kramer Memorial in Oswald West State Park, or better yet, read it aloud to anyone who doesn’t know the inspiring 1967 story of how this journalist helped preserved the state’s legacy of publicly-owned beaches. • Seeing a pit bull that had been almost mauled to death in a fighting operation

come back to life with the care of her incredible owner. We should all do such a wonderful sublime thing to heal the world. • Any time I see a bald eagle ripping a crab apart at the wrack line. • Seeing a young mother work her phone on the beach for 30 minutes without interruption while her kids romped nearby. • Dancing on a massive driftlog in the pouring rain with about a dozen Newport High School students. • Observing a woman in great personal distress shed all of her clothes and plunge into the ocean to begin a new life. • Noticing the panicked look on the woman’s face when I profanely confronted her on the beach after she and her tycoon husband had advanced their riprap footprint 150 feet westward onto the sacred sands of our publicly-owned beaches. Oregon State Parks had approved this abomination. • Surprising a topless woman with long curly hair sunning in the jagged folds of riprap. She didn’t seem to understand English and her bottom half vaguely resembled that of a mermaid. • Meeting a man who told me his wife wouldn’t let him drink a 40-ouncer of cheap beer from a sack on the beach because it didn’t look classy. I told him to sue for divorce. He didn’t disagree. • Watching an old sea lion die with bulletfree dignity. • Seeing the wind snatch an umbrella from the hand of a delusional beachcomber. • Witnessing several children whipping each other gleefully with kelp while their parents fiddled on their phones. • Watching 60 sixth graders build 21 driftwood forts in two hours at Ona Beach. Most of these sightings would have never occurred had I lived anywhere else but Oregon, the Oregon of Oswald West, Tom McCall, Bob Straub, Sam Boardman and Matt Kramer. I might also add that none of these moments ever cost me a cent. Matt Love is the founder of Nestucca Spit Press and author/editor of 12 books about Oregon.

When Rob and Mary Pounding decided to strike out on their own and set up the Blackfish Café in Lincoln City, they could not have chosen a more appropriate date, July 4, 1999 — Independence Day. The restaurant opened to immediate critical acclaim and, in the 15 years since, the Blackfish has become one of the coast’s most sought-after culinary experiences. Along the way, the Poundings have learned a lot about the restaurant business, including this little pearl of wisdom — opening a restaurant on the Fourth of July is not nearly as romantic as it sounds. “It wasn’t a good idea,” Rob said. “It was crazy. I just wasn’t going to have a restaurant on the coast be dark on July Fourth.” Not only was the coast packed with visitors for the Independence Day festivities, but the Blackfish opening was also something of an event for local foodies, familiar with Rob’s cooking at the Salishan Lodge in Gleneden Beach. “We had a lot of locals that showed up and were waiting for us outside,” Mary said. “That first week was very, very, very hard,” Rob said. “But that’s to be expected. We survived.” Not only did the Blackfish survive, it thrived. Whether it’s for an anniversary dinner or an informal lunch, the restaurant has developed a loyal following of fans won over by Rob’s fresh and local approach to food. “I just try to keep it as local as I can and try to keep it fresh and relatively simple,” Rob said. “I like the big, bold, robust flavors; and just paying attention to the fundamentals of cookery — fish not overcooked, meat cooked properly, fully flavored sauces.” That philosophy was honed in a

ƚȯɀȰȳȱɃȳ ȯɂΎɂȶȳΎƚȳȯȱȶ To celebrate the Blackfish’s 15th anniversary, the Poundings are offering a fixed-price Fourth of July feast specially timed to coincide with Lincoln City fireworks display. Guests can choose from Indian-style potlach salmon roasted over charcoal on an alder plank, ribeye steak or a vegetarian option; along with soup and salad, a glass of wine and berry cobbler for dessert — all for $35 a head. Dinner will be served from 4 to 7:30 pm and reservations are strongly recommended.

resort restaurant career that took the Poundings from Charleston, South Carolina, to the New York metro area and Montana before Rob was recruited by Salishan as executive chef in 1985. Rob spent 14 happy years at Salishan before the couple decided to pursue their dream of building their own business. “I always wanted to own a restaurant — it was the one thing I’d never done,” Rob said “And my kids got old enough that I could aﬀord to be broke for a while.” The decision to go it alone also

meant Mary giving up her job as a medical technician, but she said running a restaurant was not so very different from looking after patients. “You are taking care of people,” she said, “providing a service, making them feel comfortable and welcome.” Years of working with local farmers, fishers and foragers had given Rob a few clear ideas about what he wanted to see on the new menu — salmon, some sort of local rockfish, high-end shellfish, scallops and steak. “The rest was trial and error,”

he said, “when we started, I was printing menus daily. We switched it around depending on customer reactions.” “From my perspective, it’s all about the consumer. It’s not about me,” he added. “They made it clear what they wanted and we were very flexible and switched it as we went along.” That said, some items have stood the test of time, appearing on the very first menu and still available to this day, such as the parmesan rockfish, the rockfish and chips and the Chinook salmon with blue cheese potato gratin.

“I’ve tried taking it off,” Rob said, “but people got upset so we put it back on again.” The Blackfish’s relationships with local suppliers are also longstanding. Rob has been buying vegetables from Hugh Rackleff of Ortolan Gardens since the ’80s; gets his oysters from Yaquina Bay’s Oregon Oyster Farms; and has fresh rockfish delivered by Depoe Bay Mayor AJ Matilla. Devotion to fresh, local food has stood the Poundings in good stead throughout 15 years in which public attitudes to food have changed dramatically. “People just expect better food than they used to,” Rob said, “We are basically competing against all the restaurants in Oregon.” A dedicated staff is key to keeping the Blackfish one step ahead, with key figures including Chef Josh Anderson, who has been at the restaurant for 10 years; and wine steward Amber Hawk who writes the wine list and educates the servers on what pairs well with Rob’s bold flavors. “It’s pretty much an international list,” Mary said, “but we focus a lot on Northwest wines, pinot noir, pinot gris and so forth.” For the Poundings, the Blackfish’s success can be measured in the number of people who return to celebrate their birthdays, anniversaries and other landmarks at the restaurant every year. “This is why we opened a business,” Rob said, “to create that relationship with customers. As a chef, I never got to experience that but now, as restaurant owners, we can.” The Blackfish Café, 2733 NW Hwy. 101 in Lincoln City, is open for lunch and dinner five days a week.

It’s all 4 the kids Gleneden Beach Fourth of July Parade goes back to its roots

By Patrick Alexander Oregon Coast TODAY

t 20 years old, the Gleneden Beach Fourth of July Parade is all grown up, but you’d never think it to look at this year’s event, which organizers have revamped to be more kid-friendly than ever. Starting off as a handful of floats in 1994, the parade has grown in size and spectacle every year and now attracts some 3,000 to 4,000 people to the quiet beach town. Parade Chair Louise Cremeen said event’s increased popularity led to hefty prizes for the best floats and increasing competitiveness among the adult participants. “The floats have become more professional, and that’s fine, but this

started out as a kids parade,” she said. “As people got weird, it was getting to be a competition between the adults and that’s not what it’s about.” This year, organizers have axed some of the lavish, adult prizes and replaced them with five kid’s awards; Most Creative, Best Bike, Best Animal, 9-and-under individual, and 10-14 individual. Winners of the kids’ awards get a trophy and tickets to local attractions including the Game Over arcade, Delake Bowl, Oregon Coast Aquarium and All American Putt N’ Bat. Another kid friendly addition to this year’s parade are pony rides at Blake’s Nursery; on offer for $5 or five cans of food, with all donations benefiting the local food pantry. For many parade guests, the day starts with a pancake breakfast at the Gleneden Beach Community Club, which serves up sausage or ham, orange juice, eggs and all the pancakes you can eat from 8 to 11 am. With most of the action happening on Gleneden Beach Loop, parking is at a premium and guests are encouraged to park at Salishan and take the shuttle bus to the parade site. From 9 am to 3 pm a craft fair and food court will be running outside Eden Hall, with some 40 vendors selling their wares. Although the parade does not start until 1 pm, spots along the

If you go WHAT: Gleneden Beach Fourth of July Parade WHERE: Gleneden Beach Loop WHEN: 1 pm, Friday, July 4 COST: Free

loop ﬁll up fast, with families setting up lawn chairs, coolers and even the occasional couch in order to watch the festivities in comfort. With about a hundred entries each year, the parade takes about an hour to make its way along the loop and back through the side streets. Most entries get their registration forms in ahead of time but the door is always open for folks who want to sign up on the day. The parade attracts all manner of entries. Cremeen remembers one woman who rigged up a contraption that made it look like one dog was pedaling two other pooches around in a cart. Another favorite was the ‘chicken lady’ who, for many years, paraded with her chicken on a leash. “She was all dressed up like Old Mother Hubbard,” Cremeen said. “Stuﬀ you see in this parade you won’t see in the Rose Festival” she added. “We don’t want to get too sophisticated and take all the fun out of it.” This year’s grand marshals are three members of the Veterans of Foreign Wars: Dave Parker, who served in Vietnam; John Farrel who served in Desert Storm; and Al Berg, who served in Korea. Other dignitaries will include

this year’s Honored Citizen, Kris Knudsen; Business of the Year, Salishack Tavern and a Volunteer of the Year, who will be announced at the parade. The once-popular tradition of throwing candy from the ﬂoats has been outlawed for several years in Gleneden Beach due to concerns that it could cause kids to run into the street in pursuit of a stray sweet. Instead, all kids will be issued with a plastic bag to collect candy dispensed by designated candy walkers. Parade day also sees Cremeen post the winners of the Jeez Louise raﬄe, a fundraiser for the local food pantry that, at last year’s event, gave out $4,500 worth of prizes donated by local businesses. Tickets are available from the

Gleneden Beach Post Office until the day before parade, priced at $1 or a can of food per ticket, or six for $5. And people looking to buy a raffle ticket on parade day itself can throw their hat in the ring for a chance to win a quilt crafted by the community club’s Thursdays Group. Tickets are $1 or a can of food apiece, or six for $5, with proceeds helping to fund a $1,000 scholarship for a Taft High student. And, once the last discarded raffle ticket has been cleared from the sidewalk, planning begins for next year’s event, with new volunteers always welcome. “The main thing with the parade is that we have fun,” Cremeen said. “No matter how much work it is, it’s still fun.”

Out of fresh lettuce and have a hankering for tortilla salad? Can’t wait for the weekend? Not to worry, the Waldport Farmers Market is now open two days a week. Currently in its eighth year, the market hosts a variety of vendors, selling everything from fresh produce to coﬀee to handmade art and more. Located at the Waldport Community Center near the ﬁre station, the market is a great place to check out local artists and farms. “Come to eat, come to look, come to talk,” market manager Louis Piette said, “there is a something for everyone.” The market is open from 10 am to 4 pm on Saturdays and Wednesdays, featuring about 35 regular vendors. Depending on the day, you might spot local musicians serenading market participants and there is also plenty of art to peruse. If you are looking for something sweet, you will have a lot to choose from. There’s Italian ice cream, donuts, kettle corn and more. And, this time of year, the produce booths are bursting with colorful cherries. If you are looking for a bigger meal, you can also hit up Enrique’s Mexican Food and get a giant burrito.

If you like your music easy to categorize, better steer clear of Occidental Gypsy when they play the Lincoln City Cultural Center on Thursday, July 10. But, if you can handle a blend of pop, jazz and world music all held together with a healthy dose of gypsy swing — then this is the gig for you. The band promises an exhilarating performance featuring the up-tempo, highenergy rhythms of gypsy swing, melded with the catchy, melodic hooks of pop and complex structures of jazz. Lead guitarist Brett Feldman and his bassist brother, Jeﬀ, originally formed Occidental Gypsy as a straight-ahead Gypsy Jazz Quartet. But the band quickly garnered critical acclaim for the gypsiﬁed version of Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” on their 2011 debut album “Over Here.” The album’s success, together with the addition of new members, led the band toward its more sophisticated and eclectic sound. Joining the Feldman brothers to complete the band are Berklee-trained Jonathan Hurley,

A Major Performance The 234th Army Band ranks as one of the top acts to hit Newport this year By Jenni Remillard

For the TODAY

he National Guard usually has a time commitment of one weekend a month plus two weeks a year but to hear the 234th Army Band play — it’s clear they are getting together far more often than that. Nicknamed “Oregon’s Own,” the band is part of Oregon’s National Guard and is based in Clackamas, with members spending their two weeks a year touring around Oregon and southwest Washington. This year, the band will be taking its “Heroes and Villains” concert series to several stops on the coast, including the Newport Performing Arts Center. They will be performing familiar, family friendly pieces such as music from “Frozen,” “Les Miserables,” “The Incredibles,” “Superman” and even a multimedia feature WHAT: The 234th Army Band of “Godzilla Eats Las Vegas.” and music theory.

become staff at the school. Throughout their time in the military, all army musicians are held to the same physical requirements as other army service members, which means regular physical fitness tests in addition to all those rehearsals. Most army bands, including the 234th, have several smaller musical ensembles in addition to their large concert band. The 234th has a rock and jazz band as well as woodwind and brass ensembles, made up from the same 40 soldiers who play in the concert band. These smaller groups will be playing in the summer tour as well. The concert band will be playing in Newport this year, with conducting duties shared by Chief Warrant Officer Ashley Alexander, Staff Sergeant James Cameron and Sergeant Chris Sigman. The band states that “In addition to saluting military service-members past and present, the Band aims to entertain all members of the community as a show of appreciation for the shared sacrifice families of Oregon National Guard service-members have endured in support of military operations around the globe.” Besides entertaining the public, the band also has the very special job of supporting deploying and returning soldiers. Members of the woodwind quintet General Discord played in early June at the mobilization ceremony of the 2nd Battalion, 162nd Infantry Division, one of four Oregon units deploying this year. The band also participates in community events, such as Portland’s Starlight Parade and the Vancouver Fireworks show. In addition to music, the band is also prepared to help in disaster relief, with some members having been deployed to help with Hurricane Katrina relief efforts. But, come 7 pm on Monday, July 7, these master musicians’ minds will be on one thing and one thing only, providing a world-class concert at the Newport Performing Arts Center that is truly not to be missed.

Celebrate the Fourth with a sixth When celebrating Independence Day, images of Washington crossing the Delaware River are never far from the mind. But if the Yachats Ladies Club gets its way, the enduring image from this Fourth of July will be its famed River of Pie. The sweet creation — a 40-foot-long collection of some 150 homemade pies — is the centerpiece of the club’s annual July 4th Pie and Ice Cream Social, which returns on Friday, July 4, for its 15th year. Most of the pies are made by Yachats Ladies Club members, with some donated by friends in the community. The selection includes many varieties of apple, berry, peach and cherry as well as cream pies and specialty pies including raisin, pineapple, pecan, key lime, turtle, chocolate, coconut, sugar-free and gluten-free.

Each serving is a sixth of a pie and costs $3.50, with the option to add ice cream for 50 cents. Coﬀee and tea will be available for $1 and huge brownies will be also be served for $2 each. To-go boxes are available, so you can eat your pie and have it later, too. The social starts at 11 am at the Yachats Commons, 441 Hwy. 101 N., and runs until 3 pm or until the pies are gone, whichever comes ﬁrst. For more information, call Sandy Dunn, 541-547-3205.

A very flash bash indeed Newport’s Pacific Maritime & Heritage Center will be the scene of three celebrations in one this Friday, July 4, with guests treated to live jazz and a prime view of the Yaquina Bay Fireworks from a deck overlooking the bay. As well as celebrating the Declaration of Independence, the Lincoln County Historical Society is throwing the party to mark the center’s first full year of operation and to kick off fundraising efforts for the next renovation phase. The event will see the everpopular Great Room cleared out to make way for dancing to music from local jazz quintet Past Forward, who will begin playing at 8 pm and take a break at dusk for guests to watch the fireworks. Weather permitting, seating will be available on the deck for the best view anywhere in town. After the display, Past Forward will resume playing, so guests can be entertained for a while until the notorious
