Heritage center looking shipshape

Binnacles, boat models, ship’s wheels, maritime art, vintage surfboards, and larger-thanlife photographs will fill the public spaces of the Pacific Maritime & Heritage Center when it opens on Friday, June 28, with an exhibit titled “Ship to Shore: Objects of a Maritime Community.” Steve Wyatt, executive director of the Lincoln County Historical Society, said all the maritime objects in the exhibit have been loaned by members of the community “This community-based approach netted incredible gems of maritime history,” he said, “many of which have never been seen by the public.” In addition to maritime objects, the museum will open with 48 pieces of maritime art submitted for a juried exhibition organized by Toledo artist Michael Gibbons. The exhibition is titled “Maritime Heritage: Impressions in Art.” Photographs from the Society’s collection illustrate early life on the area waterways. Some are larger-than-life, a description Wyatt said could also be applied to the building that houses them, a former mansion and nightclub with high ceilings and 50-some windows over-

looking Newport’s Bayfront. “When people enter the building for the first time, they often gasp as they take in the beauty and scale ...” Wyatt said. “We are now scheduling charity events, weddings, etc. for the Great Room, which is adjacent to an openair deck overlooking the Bayfront.” Other attractions include an AIS System antenna, which identifies and tracks marine traffic in real time, and a Hands-On History area where children can handle objects and create their own exhibits. Renovation of this building has been possible through grassroots support, which has seen more than $1 million raised from local donors since 2004. The upper and lower floors, which will house a multi-purpose theater, conference center and additional exhibits, will open as funds are raised. The June 28 opening of the new center, located at 333 SE Bay Blvd., will begin at 11 am. Admission to the museum for non-members is $5 for adults; $3 for children 3 through 12 and free to children 2 and under. For a limited time, historical society members will be admitted free. Opening hours are 11 am to 4 pm Thursday through Sunday.

Ocean Watch, the 64-foot cutter that sailed in the Around the Americas tour in 2009-10, will be docked in Newport throughout July, offering free opportunities to tour the boat, learn about its mission and potentially even take a trip out on the ocean. The vessel will be moored at Newport’s Embarcadero Resort Hotel and Marina throughout July and open for pre-scheduled public tours in which groups of up to 24 can tour the vessel for free, potentially going out into the bay or on the ocean, weather permitting. Possible Ocean Watch tour activities include spending time with OSU marine science faculty and volunteer educators, observing a remotely operated vehicle, participating in animal and plant surveys and learning about the Around the Americas tour itself. Made possible by Oregon State University and the 4-H Youth Development Program, this marine education

opportunity also features a presentation from students involved in the 4-H Marine Ambassador Camp. The camp saw 57 students from Oregon and Washington spend five days learning about the health of the world’s oceans and how changes are impacting ecosystems and human life. They will share their new knowledge in presentation from 9:30 -11 am on Thursday, July 4, at the Embarcadero, 1000 SE Bay Blvd, Newport. To contact the Embarcadero Resort, call 800547-4779. To learn more about the Ocean Watch tour opportunities available from July 6 to 31 contact OSU 4-H Program Coordinator Todd Williver at the Lincoln County Extension Office, 541-5746534, todd.williver@oregonstate.edu. Information about the Ocean Watch campaign can be found at www.aroundtheamericas.org.

The Caterpillar Hunter tells the story of an adventurer based on the late Steve Irwin, who shrinks himself and sets o to explore the terrain, pursuing elusive bugs and strange plants in the wild recesses of a common North American vegetable garden. The group will perform the play at 10 am at Waldport Public Library, 460 NW Hemlock Street; 1 pm at Newport Public Library, 35 NW Nye Street; and 6:30 pm at Driftwood Public Library, 801 SW Hwy. 101, Lincoln City.

Setting the stage for fun

The Just For Fun Singers, a group of 85 singers who reside in Oregon’s mid-Willamette Valley, will perform a program of patriotic favorites at the Lincoln City Cultural Center on Sunday, June 30. The matinee show, starting at 3 pm, will include “This Land is Your Land,” “I’m a Yankee Doodle Dandy,” “America the Beautiful” and “Fifty States in Rhyme.” Founded in Salem, the Just For Fun Singers are an all-volunteer, mixed voice choir of singers ranging in age from 58 to 90.

They sing a wide variety of music from religious

and gospel to folk and Broadway hits. The singers believe that music is instrumental in keeping healthy and active, and their primary purpose is to bring the joy of music to their audiences. The musical theme for 2013, their 20th Anniversary, is “One Nation... Indivisible,” and they’re singing favorites like “Shenandoah”, selections from “Music Man,” and patriotic odes like “The Pledge of Allegiance,” “A Festive Call to Freedom,” and “America, My Country.” For more on the group, go to www.justforfunsingers.com.

The refuge participates in the Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s Project NestWatch — a citizen science program where volunteers place and care for artiďŹ cial nest boxes; monitor them; and then record nesting results in a nationwide database. On Saturday, June 29, refuge volunteer Lee Sliman will open the nest boxes and monitor the progress of the avian families within.

Everybody’s heard about the bird Tiki’s at 51st: iÂ?Â…oÂŽÂ? ity’s ƤÂ?est sÂ’ot for a meal on the ĆŞy By Patrick Alexander Oregon Coast TODAY

top in for a cocktail at Tiki’s at 51st in Lincoln City and you could be forgiven for thinking someone’s watching you. And, indeed, many is the guest who has settled into their seat on the outdoor porch and taken their ďŹ rst sip of a refreshing margarita only to see a pair of beautiful eyes ďŹ x their glass with a piercing gaze, Those eyes belong to Gypsy, Tiki’s resident blue and gold macaw, always on hand to greet visitors with a cheery “what’s up?â€? And while the words “I want oneâ€? are not among this talented bird’s vocabulary, her longing looks do give the impression Carol Sovey with a big bird that any mojito left unattended within range of her dexterous beak would disappear pretty quickly. But for the 10 years that Gypsy has been in residence at Lincoln City’s very beachiest of beach shacks not one drop of liquor has passed that beak for one very simple reason — as well as being a macaw, Gypsy is minor bird. That will change on Sunday, Aug. 18, when Gypsy will celebrate her 21st birthday in the company of her owners, Carol and Alan Sovey, as well as a host of Tiki’s regulars. Despite the milestone, it seems that Lincoln City’s best-known bird might still not get to wet her beak. “I think we are all going to drink to her — not with her,â€? Carol Sovey said, adding that the tropical trickster is trouble enough without adding alcohol to the mix. Often seen clinging to a specially made perch during Carol’s bike rides around town, Gypsy has also been featured on TV’s “Go Northwestâ€? and has even had a role in a six-week run of “Peter Panâ€? in McMinnville – with a part that involved rocking from side to side with a crowd of rowdy sailors. Alan Sovey with a big dog In short, she’s much more fun than the little yellow canary that Sovey was originally planning to buy when she visited the indoor seating.

Life intervened and the Soveys ended up going to plan B, Carol said she aims to provide healthy, fresh food — with transforming a portion of the house into a walk-up restaurant with outdoor seating.

few good things than a whole book.â€? As such, additions to the menu are few and far between but this summer will see the debut of the Tiki’s breakfast burrito, available in the mornings. For thirst quenching on those sunny beach days, Tiki’s oers a wide range of fruit concoctions, all juiced fresh in-house. Drinks with a little more kick include the Down the Hatch Margarita, crafted from six secret ingredients, and a mojito served with fresh mint leaves. Carol said the cocktail list owes less to bartending school and more to a misspent youth frequenting pool parties. “We found that people appreciate fresh ingredients and no bar mixes,â€? she said. While each cocktail has its own ardent fan base, Tiki’s also has a devoted coee following, being the ďŹ rst place on the Oregon Coast to serve the gourmet Stumptown coee from Portland. Carol and her crew went to ‘Stumptown school’ for two days in order to learn how to coax the best avor from the celebrated bean, for inclusion in such creations as the caramel macchiato and the Wicked Mocha, which teams espresso, dark chocolate and white chocolate with a pinch of cayenne to chase away any rainy-day blues. And, while Gypsy might not be getting her beak into the beverages any time soon, she might be in line for something even more satisfying. Carol and Alan plan to build her an aviary and ďŹ nd her a mate, with whom she could spend the next 80 years. How long ‘till Tiki’s will be celebrating with a baby shower? Time will tell. Summer hours for Tiki’s, at 1005 SW 51st Sreet in the Taft District of Lincoln City, are 10 am to 9 pm Tuesday to Friday and 9 am to 9 pm, Saturday and Sunday. To learn more, order takeout or request a delivery, call 541-996-4200.

Triple spotlight in Newport

The Yaquina Art Association is featuring the work of three artists in overlapping Spotlight Shows, with the three-dimensional creations of Alana Williams displayed alongside the watercolors of Georgia Beard and the photography of Richard LaFond. Williams traces her creativity back to her high school days in Ogden, Utah, where she was introduced to pottery, learning how to form clay and throw pots on a wheel. Since moving to the by Alana Williams Oregon Coast in 2001, she has been selling her art and crafts at local shops and regional shows. Considering art as “a continuing journey,” Williams has also begun taking watercolor classes, with her favorite subjects being flowers and animals. Her work will be on display from 10 am to 5 pm every day until

Friday, July 5, at the Yaquina Art Association Gallery 789 NW Beach Drive in Newport. From Friday, June 29, Williams’ work will be joined by that of Beard, who, in addition to watercolors, also creates with oils, pastels, pencils, and acrylics. She loves painting various subjects including people, children, animals, landscapes, seascapes, flowers and still life. Beard also enjoys decorative painting in the Russian Palekh and Zhostova styles — typically painting on wood using acrylic medium. Also on display from Friday, June 29, will be photographs from LaFond, by Georgia Beard a former photographer for the Steve Allen Show in the mid-’60s who now lives in Seal Rock. LaFond’s works will include oceanscapes as well indoor and outdoor photographs of flowers. Beard and LaFond’s works will remain on display from 10 am to 5 pm daily until Friday, July 12.

Hang ten at Ozone Fine Art Gallery in Newport

What do you get when you gather the beauty of the Oregon Coast, the inspiration of artists, and the spirit and reverence for the ocean that surfers, sailors and scientists have? Why, you get a gallery full of unique expressions of the love of the sea, sand and sun. The Summer Surf Show at Ozone Fine Art in Newport features local artists creating their visions of the summer in paint and sculpture.

“Art surf boards painted, carved, or forged can be imagined on the waves of oils, acrylics, wood, and glass,” Ozone owner Karen Candelario said. “Intimate views of rockfish, whales, and seahorses put you in an undersea world while sunset lighthouse-scapes and cliffside views put you in that vacation state of mind. There is even a fantasy niche that is reminiscent of childhood summer day dreaming.”

Guests can also share some art of their own by taking part in interactive art projects throughout the gallery — playing in the ‘Beach Zen Rock Garden’ or leaving their mark right on the gallery floor with the sidewalk art project. The show runs through Monday, Aug. 5,with the gallery open daily from noon to 5 pm upstairs at 669 SW Bay Blvd., Newport.

A life’s pattern on display Oregon abstract artist Thomas Goodwin will open a rare display of his work at a Friday, June 28, artist reception at Café C’est La Vie in Lincoln Beach. Goodwin, now in his 60s and retired, developed an active art career early in his life but stepped back from displaying his creations 15 years ago in order to support his family through work in real estate. But he never stopped painting, privately, for his own pleasure. “Because I didn’t really like to sell my paintings, I suddenly discovered I had built a collection of more than 150 pieces,” he said. “Now, I want to keep on painting and I have time to share my collection with everyone who enjoys my kind of art.” During those 15 years away from the public eye, Goodwin spent time in Hawaii and Costa Rica, picking up influences that are reflected in the different stages of his work. Described by one admirer as “cubism with curves,” Goodwin’s work is inspired by the human figure, landscape, architecture and the convergence of the basic elements. The June 28 artist reception, which will include live music, will take place from 5-8 pm, at 8 Bella Beach Drive, between Gleneden Beach/Lincoln Beach off of Highway 101. The show will run through July 25.

cover story

Get courted in Lincoln City Who says three’s a crowd? Hoop it Up brings 3-on-3 basketball back to the coast By Patrick Alexander Oregon Coast TODAY

N

ow let’s be clear right from the start that no one’s accusing anyone of anything. All we are saying here at TODAY Towers is that it is awfully convenient that one of the most wildly exciting, knife-edge NBA finals in recent history just happened to play itself out in the run up to this weekend’s Hoop it Up basketball tournament. As advertisements for basketball go, it would be hard to do any better than the epic, seven-game thriller played out by the Miami Heat and the San Antonio Spurs, with each team winning on their opponents’ turf and digging out victories in the dying minutes before the Heat clinched the title in the June 20 decider. And every cheer and every gasp throughout the seven-game stretch were music to the ears of Roger and Phil Robertson, organizers of the Hoop it Up tournament that will transform Lincoln City into a hub of 3-on-3 basketball action on Friday, June 28, and Saturday, June 29. The tournament will see players of all ages and of all abilities, from beginner to expert, bringing their game to the Tanger Outlet Center in the hope of progressing through a bracket system to claim victory. The father and son Robertson team are aiming to build the tournament into the largest event on the Oregon Coast, a goal Roger Robertson said is achievable given the wild success of 3-on-3 basketball elsewhere in the Pacific Northwest. Robertson said the idea for a Lincoln City tournament came to him when he visited Salem to see his grandkids play in a 3-on-3 event that had attracted some 900 teams. Better yet, he said, the kids were on their way to a similar tournament in Spokane that boasted 9,000 teams. Robertson said it became clear that bringing 3-on-3 basketball to the coast would give the Tanger Outlet Center the signature event it was looking for while also being a shot in the arm for the visitor

7-12 dance team, who will serve as court assistants. Teams are limited to a maximum of five players, with no more than three on the court at any one time. The bracket system is designed to guarantee each team at least three games, throughout the two-day event. That number could rise depending on the size of the team’s bracket and, of course, whether they are any good. “If they win and continue to win, they could play half a dozen games,” WHAT: Hoop it Robertson said.

Play will resume and a swag bag at 9 am on Saturday, packed with goodies June 29 and continue from local stores. until the last basket. For the winners of the elite “Top Gun” bracket, however, there is a cash prize that grows with every team that enters. In order to be eligible for prizes, teams must have pre-registered by Monday, June 24. But, mindful of the lure that the Oregon Coast exerts as a last-minute getaway, organizers are again including a special bracket for folks who come to the coast at short notice — giving them the chance to compete just for the fun of it. And the action won’t be limited to the hoops, with a slam dunk competition and a clam chowder eating contest adding to the fun, while booths operated by a wide range of nonprofits and charities will sell refreshments.

economy on the cusp between spring and summer. “If we can get half of what Salem gets, it would have a significant impact on the Lincoln City economy,” he said, adding: “When you bring in the moms and dads, aunts and uncles, grandmas and grandpas, we can fill the town.” Last year’s inaugural event saw more than 60 teams compete on temporary courts set up atop Tanger’s parking structure, bringing in enough visitors that several of the mall’s stores reported record sales. This year, organizers are hoping to more than double the number of teams taking part. Presented by All Ways Traveling and Chinook

Winds Casino Resort, the drug-free, alcohol-free and smoke-free event is designed to be family friendly and welcoming to people of all levels of basketball experience. When registering online, teams can chose an age category as well as opting to compete in particular brackets — novice to expert; coed; family and so on. Robertson said officials are coming in from all over the state to referee for the event, which could see games taking place on as many as 18 courts at once. Extra help in keeping things on track will come in the form of Twyla Plummer and the Taft High

ear Oregon Coast Today Readers: My name is Sonny and I am a dog, a husky. My owner, Matt Love, is the regular writer of the One Man’s Beach column, but I write too (although he doesn’t know it) and I contributed this piece surreptitiously because of Matt’s disdain for the impending Fourth of July celebration, which as all of you know, is very, very hard on dogs. I know this from painful experience. Last year, fireworks on the Fourth almost killed me. It was only Matt taking me down to the beach at two in the morning that ended my seizure. We just sat there and rode it out and he told me the story of how earlier that evening he rescued a three-legged mutt on Newport’s Bayfront that got spooked by the fireworks and jumped out a car window. He later reunited the dog with his drunken, clueless masters. As Matt always says, “Sometimes you have to protect dogs from their own curiosity and the carelessness of their owners.” It’s pretty much a full time part-time job for him these days. More recently, some idiot in our neighborhood set off a late night barrage that brought on another protracted seizure in me that almost resulted in a stroke. I have never seen Matt so angry. He certainly knows how to curse with what he mistakenly construes as wit. A few days ago when Matt was taking a nap in his favorite driftwood fort, I pawed through his journal and came across this passage: A Prose Poem in Favor of Rain on the Fourth of July I love when rain beats down on the Fourth of July and how rain renders patriots, parades, jingoism, and fireworks utterly impotent, squashing their noise, colors and cheer. I relish the frowns of little children, wet paper plates, dripping flags, and soggy hamburgers trembling in the hands of senior citizens. I envision vacationers stuck inside on their phones with the

20 • oregoncoastTODAY.com • facebook.com/oregoncoasttoday • june 28, 2013

Oregon blues again, vowing never to return. Disneyland forever! And yes, Sonny the ancient husky relishes it all too, because she loathes the Fourth of July as much as I do, but does, occasionally enjoy the tasty remains of hot dogs abandoned near smoldering campfires on the beach. I’ve known Matt for 14 years now, he held me as a puppy, and I don’t really believe he wants to ruin a holiday for the overworked American workers who don’t enjoy half the vacation time as their slacker counterparts in Europe. I think all he honestly desires is that people practice common sense and confine themselves to watching the big shows of fireworks and not rudely set them off in tranquil neighborhood places where old dogs and reclusive writers reside. And I hate to say this, but it’s always the tourists who perpetrate the obnoxious deed, particularly the young goateed and rotund dads. How would you like it if we came to your suburban culde-sac and blew off some M-80s and bottle rockets at 10 pm? What would your police force do? They’d be issuing stiff fines. This Independence Day, Matt’s taking me deep into the Coast Range, far, far away from the miscreants and fireworks. He’s summoned an army of forest fairies to join us. They texted and said they’re coming. No doubt he’ll end up rescuing some dogs that bolted from their owners’ paved camp sites. We’ll probably have fun, but I much prefer the beach near our home and the old sound of the ocean. I don’t have a whole lot of time left to hear it. Sincerely, Sonny Matt Love lives in South Beach with his husky, Sonny. His latest book, “Of Walking in Rain,” is available at nestuccaspitpress.com and coastal bookstores. He can be reached at lovematt100@yahoo.com

Superheroes take on cancer By Patrick Alexander

Oregon Coast TODAY

With Iron Man and Superman dominating the box office, it’s a big year for superheroes all over the U.S. but perhaps nowhere more so than in Tillamook, where caped crusaders will keep their feet on the ground for the 15th Relay for Life at the Tillamook County Fairgrounds. The event will see 14 teams decked out in superhero garb take turns walking the track at the fairgrounds for 24 hours on Saturday, June 29 and Sunday, June 30. Sharon Renteria, team development chair for the event, said this year’s relay features many teams taking part for the first time. “It’s kind of exciting to have people that are excited about it,” she said. “New blood.” Organizers hope to raise $45,000 to help Tillamook County residents with the costs associated with cancer treatment. The group supports cancer patients by paying for gas cards and lodging for those who have to travel to the Valley for treatment as well as supporting the “Look Good Feel Better” program, which helps people deal with the effects that cancer medication can have on their appearance. The event will begin at 10 am on Saturday, June 29, at the fairgrounds, 4603 3rd Street, Tillamook, with an opening ceremony followed by a survivors’ lap. Participants will walk throughout the day

and into the night, with teams camping out at the fairgrounds. A special pajama lap and a midnight movie will add to the sleepover feel. The smoke- and alcohol-free event will also feature food vendors, a silent auction, children’s activities, musicians and a scavenger hunt. The search will also be on for this year’s Mr. Relay, with all male participants encouraged to dress up in female clothing and walk around the track with a purse soliciting donations. Whoever raises the most cash wins the Mr. Relay title for the year. The luminaria service, where illuminated

lanterns line the track in honor of people who have lost their lives to cancer, those who have survived and those whose fight continues, is slated to take place at 9 to 9:30 pm. The Relay for Life of Tillamook County group has until Aug. 31, to reach its fundraising goal so stay tuned for details of a Bark for Life event in August — think Relay but with dogs. For more information, call 503-8425468. For details of how to donate to the American Cancer Society, go to www.cancer.org/involved/index

Nip and tuck in Toledo Volunteers, both green-thumbed and otherwise, are invited to take part in United Way’s Day of Caring on Saturday, June 29, giving a face lift to Toledo’s Flowertree Community Center. Tasks will include organizing the garden shed, pulling shrubs, pruning, spreading bark, planting flowers, and light painting. Katelyn Hordichok, area representative for Lincoln County’s United Way, said the group knows many local agencies that provide much-needed services do not have the time or the resources to get projects like yard work or painting done. “Day of Caring does two things,” she said, “ it allows agencies to focus on their primary job of providing quality services and it promotes volunteerism in a handson way, so people can pitch in for a day and use their talents to make a noticeable impact. Everyone benefits.” The goal of Saturday’s work party is to make the community center safe and attractive place for local children to play after school to attend summer youth programs. The Day of Caring is scheduled to run from 8 am to 2 pm, with lunch provided. Volunteers should meet at the center, 321 SE 3rd Street, Toledo. For more information, or to sign up, go to www.unitedwayblc.org/day-caring or call the Retired & Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) at 541-574-2684.

Love thy yard work Do you have household projects or odd jobs that need completing? Do you know someone in North Lincoln County, elderly or disabled, who could really use a hand with some chores? If so, it might be time to call the “Love My Neighbor” crew, a group of adult and high school volunteers who are contributing to their community this summer. They’re looking for projects in Gleneden Beach, Lincoln Beach, Lincoln City and Kernville to be tackled between Monday, July 15, and Friday, July 19. These volunteers, sponsored by Christian churches in Beaverton, Gleneden Beach and Lincoln City, are ready to tackle yard work, shoveling, painting and other odd jobs. For more information, or to schedule a time, contact Carl Wohlwend at 541-764-3855.

A day for dogged competitors

Does your dog have the best handshake west of the Mississippi? Do her Frisbee-catching skills leave others in the dust? Can he shed enough hair in a single brushing to fashion a small rug? If so, it’s time to step up and prove it at Lincoln City’s Mutt Masters Dog Show and Olympics. The contest to decide who is top dog in all manner of categories will take place at the Old Taft Elementary School on Saturday, June 29, as a benefit for the Lincoln County Animal Shelter. Registration begins at 11 am with the contests and shows beginning at noon. The registration fee is $5 per dog, per category – or $25 per dog for unlimited entries – for contests including: • Tail Wag Champ — Looking for fast and unique. • Fabulous Frisbee Catcher — You throw, dog catches. Prize goes to the most stylish catch, not the longest throw. • Unusual Pet Trick — Anything you can get your dog to do. This one is up to you and your dog. • Most Distinguished Elder — Dogs

seven years and older get to show off their gray hairs. • Best Handshake — You two shake on it, we judge best obedience and form. • Best Dressed — Speaks for itself. The nattier the better. • Sing Off — Guardians can use any non-physical means to help their dogs sing. • Sleep Off — The dog lying down for the longest without moving — no wagging tails or wiggly ears — wins. • Best Shedder — Guardians have one minute to brush their dog and place hair in plastic bags. Most hair wins. Bags provided, handler supplies own brush. • Peanut Butter Lick — Guardians hold a peanut butter-filled spoon in their mouths. First dog to empty the spoon wins. As well as the contests, Deena Printz will be doing caricature drawings, and Shirley Scott with Animal Talk Healing will be on hand to perform pet psychic readings. There will be a photo booth to help capture the day’s special memories, and a flyball demonstration

Another opportunity for coastal canines to show off their moves is coming up, with the Willamette Agility Group (WAG) hosting its 10th annual dog agility trial in Newport next weekend. A growing sport nationwide, dog agility sees pooch performers race against the clock as they jump hurdles, scale ramps, burst through tunnels, traverse a see-saw and weave through a line of poles. The free-to-watch event will take place at Sam Case Elementary School, 459 NE 12th Street, from 6:30 to 9 pm on Friday, July 5, and continuing from 8 am to 4 pm on Saturday, July 6, and Sunday, July 7. A portion of the proceeds from competitors’ entry fees will go to the Lincoln County Animal Shelter. Vendors with dog-related merchandise are welcome to display their wares. In past years, more than 200 dogs participated, and more are expected to enter this year. For more information, call 541-265-9895.

Get immersed in Manzanita Author Jennie Shortridge will appear at The Hoffman Center on Friday, June 28, to read from her latest book “Love Water Memory,” which has won praise as “an emotional heart-tugger” that focuses on complex life dramas. The novel tells the story of Lucie, who wakes up knee-deep in the San Francisco Bay with no understanding of how she got there. After being diagnosed with a rare form of amnesia, the 39-year-old returns to her previous life with a fiancé in Seattle only to find evidence of the

old Lucie — an insecure and shallow personality she no longer recognizes, or wants to. In addition to five novels, Shortridge’s nonfiction work has appeared in national magazines and newspapers. When not writing, teaching writers workshops or volunteering, she stays busy as a founding member of Seattle7Writers.org, a collective of authors devoted both to raising funds for community literacy projects and to raising awareness of Northwest literature. Shortridge is a familiar face at The

Hoffman Center, having kicked off the Manzanita Writers’ Series in June 2008. The June 28 event, which marks the fifth year of the series, will begin at 7 pm at the center, 594 Laneda Avenue, Manzanita. Shortridge’s reading and Q&A, will be followed by an open mic, where up to nine local writers will read five minutes of their original work. Admission for the evening is $7. For more information, go to hoffmanblog.org or contact Vera Wildauer at vwildauer@gmail.com

independence day

You can depend on Gleneden Beach

Like the mythical Scottish village of Brigadoon, the sleepy beachfront community of Gleneden Beach awakens periodically, with great regularity and considerable fanfare, to show people how to throw a party. Happily for coastal revelers, while Brigadoon appears but once every hundred years, The Gleneden Beach Fourth of July Parade comes around every summer, transforming Gleneden Beach Loop into a sea of color and festivity. Floats in the parade run the gamut from vintage Corvettes to horses; fire trucks to unicyclists; and elected officials to rock bands. The event, now in its 19th year, follows a tried and tested formula, beginning with a pancake breakfast from 8 to 11 am at the Gleneden Beach Community Club, 110 Azalea Street.

After breakfast, guests can stroll down Gleneden Beach Loop to check out the food and craft fair at Eden Hall, which will run from 9 am to 3 pm. The parade itself starts at 1 pm, but many veteran spectators have gotten into the habit of staking out a spot for their lawn chairs early to be sure of a good view. Once again this year, parade participants have been asked not to throw candy or any other objects into the crowd due to organizers’ fears about kids running in front of cars to pick up poorly aimed candies. Instead, all kids will be given a paper bag to receive candy from volunteer runners attached to each float. This year’s parade will honor several dignitaries, with Samaritan Pacific Communities Hospital CEO David Bigelow serving as

Grand Marshall; the Rev. Carl Wohlwend of Gleneden Beach Christian Church honored as Community Volunteer of the Year; and Monte Arehart as Honored Citizen. The parade will also recognize the 2013 Community Club scholarship winners from Taft High School, Jessica Weaver and Alexa Jean Taunton. After the parade, a raffle drawing will decide who gets to go home with the “Happy as a Clam at the Beach” quilt designed and sewn by community club volunteers. Raffle tickets are on sale at the Gleneden Beach Post office, priced at a dollar apiece or six for $5. Drawings will also be held for the “Jeez Louise” raffle organized by parade chairman Louise Creeman in support of the Lincoln City Food Pantry. Prizes on offer

range from massages to wine and from kitchen equipment to walking sticks. Tickets are a dollar or a can of food apiece or six for $5 and are available from the Gleneden Beach Post Office. Spectators are discouraged from parking on Gleneden Beach Loop itself in order to keep the parade route clear for floats. Parking is available at Salishan Marketplace and Golf Club and at the Gleneden Beach State Park. Parking for disabled guests will be available at Radar Plumbing on Gleneden Beach Loop, designated by yellow tape and signs. Guests should expect roads to be restricted from noon until 2:30 pm. Parade planners encourage guests to carpool, walk, or make use of the free shuttle buses running from Salishan from 10:30 am to 2:30 pm.

Pie me a river The Siletz, the Nestucca, the Yaquina — the name of the coast’s rivers are etched on the minds and in the hearts of those who call this place home. But the River of Pie? That’s another story entirely. Look all you like, you won’t find it on any map. But stumble across it and you’ll forever try to find your way back. And, at just $3 a slice, you can afford to go back as many times as your stomach can handle at the 14th Annual July 4 Pie and Ice Cream Social in Yachats. For it is at this event, organized by the Yachats Ladies Club, that the River of Pie makes its annual appearance, displaying more than 160 homemade pies in what must be the very sweetest Independence Day celebration on the

coast. Creating the River of Pie is no small feat, with teams of cutters coming in to the Yachats Commons at 7:30 am to slice the pies into six slices apiece. The slices are then plated and assembled on display tables, creating nearly 40 linear feet of pure pie pleasure; a sight that has many guests reaching for their cameras. The wide variety of pies on offer includes many types of apple, berry, peach and cherry. There will be other fruit pies and many cream pies from which to choose. There will only be a few of the specialty pies including raisin, pineapple, chocolate pecan, key lime, maple walnut, chocolate, coconut and sugar-free so guests should come early for the best selection. To-go boxes are available,

so dessert fans can have their pie and eat it, too. Most of the pies will have been made by Yachats Ladies Club members while some are made and generously donated by the club’s community friends Pie is $3 a slice — add ice cream for 50 cents. Coffee and tea will be available for $1. Huge brownies will be also be served for $2 each. The event will start at 11 am in the multipurpose room of the commons, at 441 Hwy. 101 N., and run until 3 pm or until all the pie is eaten, whichever comes sooner. For more information, call Sandy Dunn, 541-547-3205. For information on becoming a Yachats Ladies Club member or for a calendar of upcoming events, call 541-547-3205. Navigating the River of Pie

Pick your parade

Get a jump on the Fourth

Siletz will get a head start on its Fourth of July celebrations this year, with the Fourth Annual River City Music Festival, taking place on Saturday, June 29, at the First Baptist Church. This free, old fashioned Fourth of July picnic, barbecue and celebration will include a cross-cultural flute and drum jam featuring the Newport Drum Circle Ensemble, with MaryBeth Nickel on the Native American flutes; the Sacred Ground powwow drummers; and Native American drummers and flute players from around the region. The jam is in its second year, having been one of the most popular features of last year’s festival. Canadian singer/songwriter and Native American Music Award winner Cheryl Bear is returning to the festival for the fourth year, and the Bluegrass duo Don & Kristi Bluegrass will also entertain. Everyone is invited to bring a lawn chair and enjoy the music as well as outdoor activities for children and youth, a silent auction and a garage sale.
