Depoe Bay honors heroes and memories at the 68th Fleet of Flowers By Patrick Alexander Oregon Coast TODAY

T

In memory of heroes The Fleet of Flowers began as a tribute to the heroism of fishermen Roy Noel Bower and John Alfred “Jack” Chambers, who died on Oct. 4, 1936, while trying to rescue fellow mariners from a storm just off shore from Depoe Bay. The pair set out in their vessel, the Cara Lou, to search for the Norwester, a boat captained by Eugene McWilliams with two teenage boys aboard, which had failed to return to harbor. The pair found the vessel, tied to the whistle buoy ¾ of a mile off shore, where McWilliams and the boys were hoping to wait out the storm. The Cara Lou headed back toward Depoe Bay, through heavy waves, and the Norwester tried to follow. But after a near upset, McWilliams decided his boat couldn’t make it, and went back to the safety of the buoy. “As we started back I saw Bower’s boat turn and a big breaker wash over it,” McWilliams told the Oregonian. “The last time I saw him, he was about five breakers off shore.” The next morning, the Norwester, having survived the night, motored into the harbor at about 6 am, with all its passengers alive and well. Later that morning, volunteer rescue crews found the bodies of Chambers and Bower, floating near the wreck of the Fleet of Flowers, 1950 Cara Lou. At the funeral service, local mourners filled a skiff with flowers and the remains of the two sailors, and committed them to the ocean two miles offshore. That year, the people of Depoe Bay began to mark Memorial Day by tossing flowers into the sea. From that tradition grew the Fleet of Flowers, which has been a formal event since 1945.

hough its harbor may be the world’s smallest, no one can question the length of Depoe Bay’s memory as the town gears up for its 68th Fleet of Flowers ceremony to commemorate those lost at sea. The ceremony, which began in 1945 in memory of two Depoe Bay fishermen who died while trying to save fellow mariners, has broadened its scope throughout the years to become a time when everyone can reflect on the passing of those they have lost. Each Memorial Day, crowds pack the Depoe Bay Bridge and stand shoulder The 68th Fleet of Flowers to shoulder along the sea will begin at 11 am with a wall to watch the fleet make ceremony at Depoe Bay its way out from the harbor Harbor featuring baginto the bay, where mariners pipes, a presentation of cast wreaths and flowers service flags, presentation on to the waves in silent of colors and a rendition tribute. of “The Star-Spangled As the boats pass under Banner.” After some the bridge, spectators get words from local dignia bird’s eye view of the taries and guest speakers, flower-bedecked railings the fleet will proceed to and cabins that represent sea in a column formation. hundreds of hours of labor After a Coast Guard from a dedicated group of helicopter drops the first local volunteers. wreath, the rest of the The job of creating the fleet will lay their flowers more than 2,000 wreaths on the water. that line the bridge and grace the bows of the fleet begins in earnest a week before Memorial Day, with volunteers donning sturdy boots for an expedition to gather foliage from the timber properties surrounding the town. Peggy Leoni, a longtime member of the Fleet of Flowers organizing committee who recently hung up her pruning shears, said the group receives permission each year from the property owners for “intrepid souls” to clip certain types of greenery and haul it back to the community hall. There, fueled by snacks and coffee donated by local restaurants, volunteers set about teasing the greenery into wreath after wreath — as well as the “Fleet of Flowers” sign and anchor symbol that hang from the bridge. Leoni said the crew makes the wreaths tight and hangs them for a few days, allowing the greens to dry out slightly, making room for the

flowers to be inserted on Sunday, the day before the ceremony. With the greens normally arriving at the community hall on the Monday or Tuesday before Memorial Day, work continues throughout the week, with anyone welcome to drop in and help out for a few hours or a few days “It gets pretty intense about Thursday, Friday, Saturday,” Leoni said, as the group races to get the job finished in time for the Monday ceremony. Preparing for the ceremony brings the whole community together, with the City granting free use of the community hall, the Coast Guard helping fetch and carry and the Confederated Tribe of Siletz Indians making a generous contribution each year. Donations like the Tribe’s are crucial for an event that spends $2,500 each year buying thousands of flowers wholesale. Leoni said volunteers will dedicate wreaths on request by writing the person’s name and a message on paper that quickly dissolves in the salt water. There is no charge for a wreath dedication but donations are gratefully accepted. The group will also craft wreaths using donated flowers, including a regular annual donation from Schreiner’s Iris Gardens in Salem. “People bring us flowers from their gardens,” she said, adding: “If it doesn’t die before Monday, we use it.” To help out with the wreath making, drop by the Depoe Bay community hall at the corner of Bay Street and Coast Guard Drive any time after 9 a.m. from Tuesday, May 21, to Saturday, May 25. To order a wreath, call the Depoe Bay Chamber of Commerce at 541-765-2889. Donations can be mailed to Fleet of Flowers, PO Box 1316, Depoe Bay, OR 97341. For more information, call Debby Metz at 541-765-2150.

Local author Bill Lackner will cover everything crabby — from catching to cooking — at a free Siletz Bay Crabbing Class, part of the Coastal Encounters series of lectures at Driftwood Public Library in Lincoln City. The class begins on at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, May 28, at the library with an hour-and-a-half lecture on Dungeness and red rock crabs. On Wednesday, May 29, students will get to put their learning into practice, meeting at 9 a.m. at the Taft Turnaround on SW 51 Street to crab along the north shore of Siletz Bay.

Tackling obesity, high cholesterol and coronary disease with a knife and fork before they need a scalpel sounds sensible. In a May 30 presentation, Dr. Hans Diehl, founder of the Complete Health Improvement Program (CHIP), will show how simple lifestyle changes can prevent, arrest and facilitate the reversal of a wide range of diseases, including diabetes and hypertension. The free seminar “Reversing modern killer diseases with fork and knife!� will explain how the program can help people lower blood cholesterol, triglycerides, and blood sugar levels through diet and exercise. CHIP has graduated more than 50,000 participants worldwide since 1988. Overall, graduates achieve an average 10- to 20-percent drop in cholesterol, 10to 20-point reduction in blood pressure and 8- to 10-pound weight loss. The May 30 seminar, co-sponsored by Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital and Lincoln City Seventh-day Adventist Church, is scheduled for 7 pm at St. Peter the Fisherman Lutheran Church, 1226 SW 13th Street in Lincoln City.

Each person taking part in the field trip must also purchase an Oregon Department of Fish & Wildlife Shellfish Harvester’s License. Field trip participants should also wear layered clothing, sturdy shoes and be prepared for rain with appropriate gear. Each crabber will also need a pair of gloves, a crab measure, a 5-gallon bucket and a large package of chicken legs for bait. For more information, call Lackner at 541 265 5847.

Have a smooth time at Silk Road festival

As a major route for the transport of goods as well as pretty much the only way to get anywhere in the region, Highway 101 already has a couple of things in common with the ancient Silk Road linking North Africa with the Far East. And this Memorial Day weekend it will gain one more — a full-on African village, complete with music, dance, food and traders, right in the heart of Seal Rock. From Friday, May 24, to Monday, May 27, traders from Mali, Cameroon, Senegal and the Congo will set up in front of the Hauser Gallery, selling masks, beads, fabrics, drums and artifacts. Gallery owner Rose Estes said it is rare for the public to get to deal directly and chat with the traders, who normally only sell to galleries. “Most people don’t realize that these traders come every year from Africa to sell their goods to shops and galleries along the Oregon Coast,” she said. “It’s almost like the new Silk Road.” Estes said buying native craft items helps support village artisans in some of the poorest areas in the world. The festival will also include African dance performances, food and drumming sessions, including performances by Senegalese Master Drummer Abdoulaye Thioub and his group and an African-themed participatory drum circle with the Newport Community Drum Circle Ensemble. The drumming performances are scheduled for Saturday, May 25, and Sunday, May 26, from about 1 pm, but casual drumming and dancing are encouraged at any time. Visitors are encouraged to bring drums or other African instruments. The drum circle will have some instruments to loan. All ages and skill levels are welcome. The festival is set to run from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day in the parking lot in front of the gallery at 12085 Hwy. 101. Contact Estes for event details at 541-5635232. For drum circle information, contact Chandler Davis at chandler@chandlerdavis.com or 541-272-4615.

Still fishing for exhibits The Lincoln County Historical Society has extended the deadline for people interested in lending objects for the community-based exhibit, “Ship to Shore: Objects of a Maritime Community” scheduled to open on June 28 at Newport’s new Pacific Maritime & Heritage Center. “We have received some wonderful objects,” Steve Wyatt, executive director of the Society, said, “including a binnacle and light from the Blue Magpie, which wrecked on the north jetty of Yaquina Bay in 1983, material from the Merchant Marines, an early crab pot, scale-ship models, a beautiful ship’s bell, and more.” Binnacle Light from the Blue Magpie “We would like to see commercial fishing-related objects in particular,” he added.

Uncommonly good crafts in Yachats

The Yachats Commons will be bursting with the fruits of artisans’ labor on the weekend of May 25 and 26, with the former elementary school playing host to the 16th annual Spring Arts & Crafts Festival by Crafts on the Coast. More than 70 exhibitors from the Pacific Northwest will display products ranging from gourmet foods to fine art, jewelry, clothing, wood, metal, fabric, paper and glass art, to bath and body products, birdhouses and candles. Many artisans will demonstrate their arts including wool spinning, weaving,

pyrography, basket weaving, needle felting, bead weaving, jewelry making and Brazilian embroidery. Meanwhile, gourmet food

producers will be offering tastes of products including hazelnut candies and butters; salt-free seasonings, garlic seasonings and condiments; honey products and nut brittles, toffee and caramel corn. Community booths will offer the chance to learn about such organizations as Yachats Volunteer Fire Department and the Yachats Ladies Club. The festival will run 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Saturday, May 25, and 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Sunday, May 26, at the commons, 441 Hwy. 101 N. Admission and parking are free. For more information, call 541-547-4664.

Nature’s art rocks

A three-day Memorial weekend show at the Lincoln City Cultural Center will give attendees the chance to see jewelry created from substances found in the four corners of the Earth — as well as from outer space. The Nature’s Art show features materials from more than 40 nations, including bumblebee jasper from Indonesia; and larimar, found only in the Dominican Republic. Pieces created from meteorites will also be available at the show, which runs from Saturday, May 25, to Monday, May 27. The show will include jewelry made with minerals, crystals, rocks, fossils, seashells, coral and other natural materials. Amber, amethyst, lapis, pearl, tiger-eye and turquoise are just a few of the semi-precious

stones used in the jewelry designs with gold, silver and other accents. “Designing and making jewelry of natural materials into simple yet elegant presentations is a major aspect of my work,” Nature’s Art owner David Eslinger said. “I enjoy selecting compatible and complementary colors, sizes, shapes and an occasional bit of whimsy. Presenting the intrinsic aesthetic values of the natural medium is my message, with natural values predominant.” Because of requests from previous customers, a limited selection of stone and fossil beads will also be available. The show will run from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day at the cultural center, 540 NE Hwy. 101.

Works by Katy LaReau and Leighton Blackwell are at the center of “Radically Different Currents” the new show at Ozone Fine Arts in Newport that aims to explore how artists arrive at their unique views of the world. “What makes art different?” gallery owner Karen Candelario asked. “Contemporary art explores the creative reaches of personal vision. Passion and excitement drive the artist to the By Katy LaReau innovative edges of technique and media utilization.” In “Radically Different Currents,” LaReau and Blackwell present their most recent artistic explorations

in sculpture and paint. LaReau uses electric current to light her concept-oriented glass towers with a modern industrial appeal. Suspended bubbles and metals reflect illumination and add engaging unique rhythms to the work. Blackwell dives into the ocean currents to pluck his fish from the sea that become his subject matter. He honors the fish through printing them, enlarging them, and painting them onto woods and objects reclaimed from their environment and ours. The show will run through June 17 at the gallery, upstairs at 669 SW Bay Blvd., Newport. FMI, call 541265-9500.

The judge for the painting categories is Dana Hulburt, artist and teacher from Pacific City, and the mosaics jurist is Emily Rogers, owner of Ryan Gallery of Lincoln City. The show will be on display until June 10 at the ASA building, 620 NE Hwy. 101, Lincoln City, (the same building as the Artists’ Co-op Gallery). To celebrate the May 25 opening, the ASA is hosting a reception for the artists and public 1 p.m.-4 p.m. Continuing this year will be an Art Show Raffle of artwork donated by ASA instructors, part of a fund-raising drive toward the group’s large maintenance and repair projects.

Gallery is in Pole position By Patrick Alexander Oregon Coast TODAY

The Freed Gallery in Lincoln City is preparing to unveil the work of Polish artist Józef Halas, whose premiere exhibit in the United States will begin at the gallery on Saturday, May 25. A noted colorist who has been painting for more than 60 years, Halas’ work reflects both the natural beauty of the Polish countryside and the oppression suffered by that country’s people under decades of communist rule following world War II. Halas was born in 1927, a turbulent time in Polish history. His painting style shows the influence of a young adulthood spent climbing mountains, walking in fields and sleeping in barns where “light oozed in” through wooden walls. Gallery owner Lee Freed said Oregon’s dramatic light, abundant water and soaring mountains make it the perfect place for Halas’ first U.S. show. Freed was first introduced to Halas’ work by her friend Peter Galuszka, a Polish art collector, whose stepfather was close friends with the artist. On a recent visit to Poland, Galuszka spent time with Halas, then in his mid-80s and of failing health, and asked him if he had any unfulfilled ambitions as an artist. Halas, who had exhibited widely throughout the world, from France to Brazil, said he regretted never having taken the opportunity to show his work to a U.S. audience. After being introduced to Halas’ work, Freed leapt at the chance to organize his premiere U.S. show. She said the use of color and the attention to detail made his work stand out — drawing attention to a series of works in which Halas created patterns by pricking hundreds if not thousands of tiny holes in the canvas. Also among the works on display are a series of pocket gouaches, a painting style that Halas developed by folding still-wet gouache canvases and putting them in his pocket before taking a walk. Upon returning to the studio, he would unfold the canvas, revealing the unique pattern created by the creases. Dominating the show are several 6-footsquare canvases bearing giclee reprints of some of Halas’ larger oil works from a series entitled “Statues,” each of which depict heavily stylized human figures interacting with each other. All the giclees are signed by the artist and priced considerably lower than the $30,000 to

$40,000 price tags on the oil originals. Freed said Halas, whose health has since improved to the point where he can paint again, is one of the last remaining painters of his era — an independent spirit who refused to be categorized into any particular clique. “What makes Józef ’s work so unique and exciting is that it captures the essence of a thing, an experience, even life itself. It draws you into a visceral experience of it,” she said, adding: “But you have to like contemporary. It’s not something that people who like seascapes and seagulls are going to like, necessar-

ily.” The Halas show will open with a reception from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday, May 25, attended by special guest K.C. Cowan, the original host of Oregon Art Beat. The show will run through June 21 and Freed is planning to take the exhibit on the road for a Labor Day weekend display in Portland’s Pearl District.

Shrubs wanted for garden The Neighbors for Kids group in Depoe Bay is encouraging budding gardeners to get their hands dirty by helping develop a community garden under the tutelage of students from Oregon Coast Community College. Rachelle Gentry, Amber Nickerson, Kathy Crosby, Nicki and Cindy, aka “The Ladybugs,” have chosen to help the young gardeners as part of a OCCC spring term class designed to develop skills including leadership, problem solving and small group interaction. “We want children to learn that food doesn’t just come out of packages,” Gentry said. The community garden project is an element of the My Health, My Life Project, an ongoing program designed to help prevent childhood obesity, improve the physical health of participants, teach and encourage healthy lifestyle choices and engage children in daily fitness and sports. “There is an epidemic of childhood obesity in our country,” Nickerson said. “One in three kids is overweight, and it will only get worse if they don’t learn about healthy food.” As well as growing food in the garden, the young gardeners will get to use the crops in NFK’s nutrition program. “Kids are adventurous,” Nickerson said. “If they plant the food and then pick it themselves, they are more likely to try it.” The gardeners are currently conducting a spring clean-up of the site, taking inventory of which plants survived over the winter and planning for new crops. The Ladybugs are inviting all community members to participate in the garden. “Come in, pick two weeds, and grab a tomato,” Crosby said “We want everyone in the community to know that this is their garden,” For more information, go to www.neighborsforkids.org or contact NFK Executive Director Toby Winn at 541-765-8990

Kids stake out surf turf

Small fry, big waves

Youngsters looking to get board certified in the art of surfing will have a chance to show off their skills in the fifth annual Otter Rock n’ Roll Youth Surf and Beach Cleanup Challenge, for which registration is now open. The contest, organized by the Newport, Siuslaw and Portland chapters of the Surfrider Foundation in celebration of International Surfing Day, will take place 8 a.m.-4 p.m. on June 15 at Devil’s Punchbowl State Park. Organizer Vince Pappalardo said the event is a great opportunity to engage in ocean stewardship, physical activity, and family-friendly competition. “No surf experience is required,” he said, “just a desire to enjoy the sport of surfing.” Observed globally, International Surfing Day celebrates the sport of surfing and

helps raise awareness about issues facing our oceans, waves and beaches. The event is open to all surfers, beginners and beach enthusiasts aged 18 and under. There will be beach games and activities throughout the day, including the special beach cleanup challenge, where youth can compete for different prizes through various stewardship activities. From the no-experience necessary beginner division with lessons to parent with child division or the more competitive 16-18 year old divisions, there is something on offer for all water and beach lovers. All participants will receive an event T-shirt as well as prizes from local sponsors. Event pre-registration is $20 online at www.otterrockandroll.com. Beach registration is $35 and closes at 8 a.m. sharp on the day of the contest.

Get schooled in Neskowin Neskowin Valley School will hold an open house on Friday, May 24, to allow students to show what they have learned during the May Friday School session and give parents the chance to learn more about the fullyear program for 2013-14. “We always do a showcase of what students did on the last Friday of each Friday School session,” said Head of School Julie Fiedler. “Our teaching staff decided the showcase might be an ideal time for families considering NVS this fall to see their Friday School work and meet students, parents and staff.” The open house will include students chanting storybook favorites from the EnCHANTing Fairy Tales class, objects that move from Toy Physics, fractals from the Magic of Nature and Math, vendors from The Streets of China and monoprints, cartoons and poems. Eleven public-school and home-school students joined those from NVS in the

classes, which included drama, cooking lunch for the entire school and NVS-style baseball at the end of the day. This will be the last Friday School for NVS as the Nestucca School District goes back to a five-day week in the fall. The school is planning outreach to home-school students for 2013-14 and hopes home-schoolers will come to the Open House. “We plan to structure our afternoon curriculum so a small number of home-school students will be able to join some of our regular arts programming,” said Fiedler. “We encourage home-schooling parents to learn more about NVS.” The May 24 open house will run from 3:15 p.m. to 5 p.m. at the school, 10005 Slab Creek Road, Neskowin. The school is accepting enrollment for students ages 3-Grade 8 for Fall 2013-14 and for its Summer Day Camps in July. For more information, call 503-392-3124 or go to www.neskowinvalleyschool.com.

Make trails to Slug Soup

The Oregon Coast Quests continue

Organizers at the Community Arts Project are dusting off their recipes as they gear up for another batch of Slug Soup — the summer art day camp for kids to get creative as they learn. The program, which runs from Monday, June 24, through Friday, June 28, at Nestucca Jr./ Sr. High School in Cloverdale, features 16 classes including painting, printmaking, sculpture, bookmaking, calligraphy and collage taught by local artists and teachers.

Oregon Sea Grant’s updated 2013-2014 edition of The Oregon Coast Quests Book is now available, containing maps and directions for 26 fun and educational clue-directed hunts in Lincoln, Coos and Benton counties. The $10 book aims to get people outside with their family and friends, following clues to find a hidden Quest Box. After solving the puzzle, Questers can sign the logbook, stamp their book to mark the accomplishment, and tuck the box back in its hiding spot for the next person to find. Questers who collect 10 or more

stamps can earn an embroidered patch to demonstrate their skills to the world. Quests are located in city, state and federal parks, historic districts, waterfronts, cemeteries, and other publicly-accessible lands, and the hunts are created and maintained by members of the local community. To learn more about Oregon Coast Quests, the location of current Quests, and where to find a Quest Book, visit hmsc.oregonstate.edu/visitor/oregon-coast-quests or contact coordinator Cait Goodwin at cait.goodwin@oregonstate.edu, or 541-867-0233.

one man’s beach C O M M E N TA R Y • B Y M A T T L O V E

The next challenge to the great birthright

D

uring the past century, Oregon enacted two monumental laws protecting the ocean beaches from privatization and commercial encroachment. They are perhaps the greatest pieces of legislation in Oregon history and enshrine the state’s identity. But they aren’t enough. We need another monumental law for the next century to address a new threat to our beaches. That threat will emerge when sea levels rise with concomitant erosion and beachfront property owners demand permission to safeguard their holdings by extending their footprint seaward, into public recreational space. What safeguarding really means in this inevitable scenario is installing more and more unsightly, dangerous, and ecologically absurd riprap (boulders) to protect ill-conceived structures that local planners should never have approved in the first place. If the state allows these owners to take public beach to shore up already dubious structures, it will undermine historical and legal precedents and imperil the very soul of the Oregon Coast. In 1913, Oregon Governor Oswald West signed a bill into law (that he wrote) that declared the wet sands areas of the beaches, “a public highway and shall forever remain open as such to the public.” West later said, “No selfish interest, through politics or otherwise, shall be permitted to destroy or even impair this great birthright of our people.” Oregon’s great birthright is its ocean beaches — 363 miles of publicly owned shore — and this ideal remained unassailable until a half-century later when an unprecedented challenge arose to threaten the legacy. In 1966, a Cannon Beach man claimed that part of the beach fronting his motel was his private property and that anyone

recreating there was trespassing. This aff ront touched off an epic legislative battle over the control of the dry sands areas of the beaches not covered by Oswald’s West 1913 law nor detailed with any precision in deeds. Responding instantly to this unprecedented attempt to privatize parts of the beach, State Parks drafted a bill to protect public use. After nearly dying in committee, the law eventually passed, and it basically placed all the dry sands areas up to the native vegetation line (roughly 16 feet above median high tide) in the public trust and zoned it as a recreational space. Governor Tom McCall signed the landmark and bipartisan Beach Bill in 1967 and reaffirmed the state’s sacrosanct notion of publicly owned beaches. The statute empowered Oregon, “to forever preserve … ocean beaches of the state … so that the public may have the free and uninterrupted use thereof.” More and more riprap on our beaches certainly doesn’t sound like honoring the ideals of “forever” and “free and uninterrupted use thereof.” Indeed, it is overturning them. Ever tried recreating on riprap? It can kill you. I want to make something clear: I do not suggest the state disallow beachfront private property owners from maintaining riprap on current structures and buildable lots. What’s done is poorly done science there. What I adamantly oppose is allowing the owner to advance riprap farther out onto the beach to protect or upgrade an ill-conceived holding. That advancement constitutes an unacceptable confiscation of public recreational space and a myopic policy to confront rising sea levels. Let me provide an example of the threat that became a reality and symbolizes what could transpire all along the Oregon Coast in the coming years. Not far from where

22 • oregoncoastTODAY.com • facebook.com/oregoncoasttoday • may 24, 2013

I live in South Beach stands a dilapidated, abandoned home built in 1948 whose owners received a permit from State Parks last fall to install new and larger riprap approximately 65 feet westward of the existing footprint. So now, instead of beach where a cool driftwood fort stood last summer that sheltered families, couples and poets, there is a 150-foot long wall of riprap some 15 feet high. Sometime soon, the homeowner will likely raze the dwelling and replace it with a mansion that literally rests at sea level. State Parks approved this project because, as one of their officials told me on the phone, “This is the bargain the Beach Bill struck with beachfront landowners to guarantee access to the beach.” As someone who has researched, written and documented more about the Beach Bill than anyone in Oregon history, I can categorically state that no such contemporary bargain existed in law or by insinuation. Some indifferent employees at State Parks have just convinced themselves of this, a classic groupthink, quite possibly to assuage their subconscious guilt at helping to destroy and impair the great birthright of Oregon. Instead of more bargaining and loss of beach, what we need is a new ironclad law, not a series of loophole-infested county ordinances, that disallows any westward advance of riprap on any existing beachfront structure or lot.

Last chance to see “Sin, Sex & the CIA”

As the flap about shady goings on at the Cincinnati office of the Internal Revenue Service continues to gather steam, Theatre West might be wishing they had chosen Billy van Zandt and Jane Milmore’s “Love, Sex & the IRS” rather than Michael and Susan Parker’s “Sin, Sex & the CIA” for the theater’s spring show. But regardless of what’s in the headlines, both plays are fine examples of farcical fun — take an important government agency, add a dash of intrigue, a few dollops of misunderstanding, and bring to the boil. “Sin, Sex & the CIA,” entering the final weekend of a four-week run, begins with the discovery of huge oil reserves in the Chagos Islands, which quickly come under pressure to join the OPEC cartel. Anxious to stop such a move, the U.S. government sends a CIA agent and an undersecretary of state to a safe house in the mountains of Virginia to begin negotiations to place the islands under US protection. But things get complicated as the CIA agent turns out to be extravagantly incompetent and the undersecretary proves that her actions controlled more by her libido than U.S. foreign policy objectives. Adding to the confusion are a stranded televangelist, his seemingly innocent secretary, an ex-Marine caretaker with a secret, and a mysterious, glamorous neighbor. The play’s final two performances are set for Friday, May 24, and Saturday, May 25, at the theatre, 3536 SE Hwy.101, Lincoln City. Doors open at 7:30 p.m. and the curtain goes up promptly at 8 p.m. To reserve seats, call 541-994-5663, leave a message and someone will call you back. Tickets are $12 for adults; $10 for seniors (62 and up) and for students (over 12); and $8 for children 12 and under.

A peach of a show Pacific Dance Ensemble is gearing up for this year’s family classic, “Jane and the Giant Peach,” opening Memorial Day weekend, adapted from the book,“James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl. Director Nancy Mittleman said the show, an expanded and refined version of the ensemble’s original 2003 presentation, features eye-catching sets that capture the effect of the eponymous peach’s magical growth. The show’s original sets were designed through a collaborative effort by Mittleman, Mark McConnell, Ernest Brown and artist Sharon Maribona. “Mark was looking primarily at the technical aspects of construction and the artistic look of the whole,” Mittleman said, “while Brown kept a close eye on the technical needs for special effects, such as the peach growing from about 8” to 5’ in diameter. Maribona added her artistic vision and I made sure the action the script and dancers was unhampered by the design and flowed smoothly from scene to scene.” For this year’s production, while McConnell was busy working on “South Pacific,” Mittleman worked with Brown, Tomas Follett and Peter Burn to bring McConnell’s design back to life, adding “a few elaborations to make the scenes inside the peach

ustomers looking for the ultimate seal of approval on their bath and beauty products can rest assured when shopping at Calise Soapworks & Such, a boutique that owner Jill Keck started in order to provide quality soaps for her two daughters. Keck, who moved to Lincoln City three years ago after a spell in Arizona, said she began making soaps because her eldest daughter was having skin problems that store-bought products couldn’t solve. Making use of a basic grounding in chemistry, a talent for artistic design and a friend with soap-making experience, Keck began cooking up her own recipes to keep her daughters’ skin smooth and soft. After getting to the point where the family needed an extra large soap caddy in the shower to accommodate some 15 varieties at a time, going into business to sell the products just made sense. “When you make soap, you might as well make 50 bars instead of one,” she said. Unlike many store-bought cleansing bars,

which are made from detergents, all Keck’s soaps are genuine soap — mostly made from water and vegetable oils. “Good soap means I don’t need lotion,” she said. “My skin feels soft afterwards and not itchy.”

She also makes goats milk soaps, which use milk in place of the water to provide the added moisturizing benefits of extra fatty acids. Other specialty products include shaving soap; soaps made with Oregon beers and

wines; and whimsical soaps with flavors like cupcake and lollipop. Keck began selling her wares at the Lincoln City and Newport farmers markets as soon as she set up shop at the coast, saying the relaxed atmosphere at the markets allows her to give personalized attention to customers and learn more about what they would like to see.

ance Waldron, Tammi Lesh, and their daughter Abigail, live on their farm in the Miami River valley amid gloriously green meadows of white-clover and rye grasses, surrounded by tree-lined Find Lance’s hills. About 200 grass Farm Vittles at acres of their spread the Tillamook are certified organic Farmers Market pastureland, which every Saturday forms the basis for from June 15 to Lance’s Farm Vittles Sept 28, and the Manzanita Farmers — a family business Market every offering grass-fed beef Friday from June and lamb, pastured 14 to Sept. 20. poultry, eggs, milkfed pork, and wool products. “I began selling beef and pork wholes and halves to neighbors while I was in high school,” Waldron said. “Several years ago, my

wife and I added a small flock of Icelandic sheep and decided to try selling our fresh frozen meats at the local farmers markets.” Community support was good; they soon added chickens and eggs to their offerings. The family sells the foods at summertime farmers markets in Tillamook, Manzanita, and Cannon Beach. Their products also may be found year-round at the 2nd Street Public Market in Tillamook, or bought directly from the farm. The family’s Icelandic sheep provide raw fleeces of all colors, roving, hand-spun and mill-spun yarn, felt, and batting. The meats, which are free of hormones and antibiotics, are sold fresh frozen. Beef, lamb, and pork are offered as wholes, halves, and in a variety of individual cuts. Chickens both fryers and broilers — are sold whole. Beef cows and sheep are on

pasture full time with hay offered during winter and no grain in their diet. Chickens are raised on a grass field, in mostly-predator-proof floorless pens, which are moved at least daily so they can have fresh grass as well as treats like bugs and worms. They also are fed vegetable- protein-based poultry food from the local feed store. The family raises between 6 and 2 pigs at a time in a large barn pen with plenty of room for rooting and loafing, and are sometimes pastured depending on weather and mud. The pigs receive leftover milk from the dairy, vegetable-protein-based grain, barley, household compost, and fresh grass during summer.

A top-seeded market

Things are going berry well at Tillamook

By Mitch Lies For the TODAY

t was while Christmas shopping 27 years ago that Carol Ann Leuthold of Tillamook was first tagged with her nickname. “A lady said, ‘Oh, you’re the strawberry lady,’” Leuthold said. “And it has just kind of stuck.” Leuthold and her sister-in-law, Carol Marie Leuthold, have been known as “the strawberry ladies” ever since. Today Carol Ann Leuthold has aprons and T-shirts with “Strawberry Lady” printed on them. Even her truck’s license plate speaks to her nickname: It reads BRYLDY. The Leutholds are among a handful of vendors peddling berries at the Tillamook Farmers’ Market each Saturday during the summer. The strawberry vendors are arguably among the most popular booths at the market on any given Saturday. “We don’t favor any vendor over another, but I can see the strawberry ladies do very well, especially with their fresh strawberries,” market manager Lauren Sorg said. “We almost always sell out,” said Carol Ann Leuthold. “And we often have lines 10 to 12 people deep.” Customers even plan shopping trips around the strawberry ladies’ schedule, Leuthold said. “It is a blast. We have met so many people and made so many friends just selling strawberries,” she said. “It is just like a big family.” The market is open each Saturday through Sept. 28 from 9 am to 2 pm. It is located in front of Tillamook City Hall on 2nd and Laurel streets in downtown Tillamook. Because strawberries don’t grow well in the Coastal climate, the vendors get their berries from farmers in the Willamette Valley. The Leutholds purchase from a farm in Cornelius. Cindy Miles of Bear Creek Artichokes, who also sells berries at the market, purchases from Pablo Nunez Farm in Dayton. “He has incredible berries,” Miles said. Miles and the Leutholds both have farmstands they operate outside the market. They sell strawberries from late May or early June — when the berries ripen — into October, when the first frost hits the valley and everbearing varieties die out. The June berries, and, particularly, the hood variety, are the most popular, Carol Ann Leuthold said. “Hoods are our favorites,” she said.

I

The Leutholds, long-time dairy farmers in the Tillamook area, started selling strawberries 28 years ago when Carol Ann’s brother was looking for some extra income while working a summer job on a farm in the Willamette Valley. “He called one day and said that work was kind of slow and asked if we knew of anyone that wanted strawberries,” Carol Ann Leuthold said. “He came over with a pickup with 20 or 25 flats of strawberries. We found a place downtown where we parked the truck, and we sold the berries,” she said. “The next day he came back and we sold another 20 or 25 flats. And they sold even faster,” Leuthold said. A day or so later, Carol Ann asked her sister-in-law, Carol Marie, to join her, and the tradition was born. “We look forward to it every year,” Carol Ann Leuthold said. In addition to strawberries, the Leutholds sell cherries, blueberries and raspberries, all from growers in the Willamette Valley. Miles has a similar story, and one that dates back even further. Miles started Bear Creek Artichokes in the unincorporated town of Hemlock, about 11 miles south of Tillamook, in 1977. The farmstand specialized in artichokes, which her ex-husband, Bill Miles, produced in the Tillamook area. Other farms in the area now grow artichokes. But Bill Miles was the first, Cindy Miles said. “He was a major pioneer of artichokes in Tillamook,” she said. Today, Miles sells a wide range of produce at her farmstand. She also sells nursery crops, including herbs, perennials and shrubs, among other plants she grows on 20 acres at the site.

She also purchases from other farms to help round out her offerings, including purchasing berries from Nunez, a practice she started seven years ago. “People would stop consistently and ask if I have fruit,” she said. Today, she said, “He is the only source for my berries because the quality is so outstanding.” Also, she said, deliveries are prompt. “I pick up the phone and he is here the next day,” he said. Nunez grows early maturing varieties, as well as mid-season and late-maturing varieties, Miles said. Typically Miles is selling berries by Memorial Day Weekend, she said. She starts selling blueberries usually around July 4. She also sells fall raspberries and cherries and peaches. A key to selling fruit and produce, she said, involves strong visual display. “I try to do beautiful visual displays,” she said. “I don’t just throw my stuff on the table.” The effort must be working. “From 9:30 to 1:30 or 2, [when the market closes], I can have a steady line in my booth that goes out into the street,” she said. Miles has been selling at the market for six or seven years, she said. Hers is the only booth that couples fruit and produce with gourmet food, cobblers and dips, she said. “I didn’t like the idea of closing [the farmstand] on Saturdays to go to the market, but I had no choice,” she said. Sales slowed dramatically at her farmstand during highway construction, she said, and the Great Recession may have had a role in reducing her farmstand sales. The end result, however, has been educational. “I learn a lot at the farmers market,” she said. “You see new ideas and it just strengthens your business.” The Tillamook Farmers’ Market will start its 13th year when it opens June 15.

f there’s one thing a custom sewing center needs, it’s good, sharp scissors close at hand. And so it makes sense that one of the booths at the Manzanita Farmers Market will feature Tracie Hill, owner and operator of Edgewise Sharpening, side by side with Cheryl James of Cheryl’s of Nehalem. But the pair are much more than boothmates; James is Hill’s mother and bubbles with pride at her daughter’s entrepreneurial spirit. “She’s only 22,� James said, “and already owns her own business!� Both mother and daughter are grateful for their close association with Phillip and Nancy Bogle of Nehalem. Phil Bogle taught young Tracie Hill the arts of sharpening; and Nancy Bogle is all-around help at the sewing workshop. James is well known in the community for, among other things, being a school marm for the Secret Angels and an occasional Mrs. Claus. Edgewise Sharpening has been keeping knives and scissors sharp for area restau-

rants and businesses since 2008. Hill will bring her mobile sharpening unit to the farmers market and sharpen knives and scissors on the spot. She also does intake for 48- to 72-hour turnaround on blades for gardening, carpentry, pet grooming, salon shears, hair clippers and kitchen crafts. Edgewise Sharpening is an authorized dealer for Popular Tools and will be oering a selection of their premium- and budget-priced saw blades for professional craftsmen and serious woodworkers at the farmers market. Meanwhile, James, who has run Cheryl’s of Nehalem for 10 years, will display some of the business’ newest oerings: embroidered American-made aprons, sweat shirts, tee shirts, hats, jackets and infant wear featuring bibs, onesies, eece and receiving blankets, and swaddlers. Many of the items are embroidered with designs speciďŹ c to the North Tillamook County area. James will take orders for personalized items, including articles for business advertising and group or individual identiďŹ cation, such as corporate-identity wear. She also oers sewing-machine repair services, with all work to be performed in Nehalem.

Each week Katie McNeil and her husband Mike Smith bake a variety of sourdough breads, sweet yeast breads and sandwich loaves along with crusty baguettes, seeded batards and the very popular herb focaccia. Be sure to come early for the focaccia as it usually sells out by 11! They make all the breads in small batches, by hand, using a slow fermentation process that creates a deep, complex avor and long keeping quality. There are customer favorites available every week like the much loved Seeded Batard, a football shaped sourdough rolled in sesame, dill and fennel and the Multi-Grain Sourdough made with whole grains and ax seeds. Then there are the new inspirations like this year’s Lemon Rosemary Sourdough made with rosemary grown in their garden and conserved lemons that perfume the loaf, perfect to serve with fresh seafood. Baking bread is not their only passion; there

are delicious pastries as well. Their tables are loaded with muďŹƒns, sticky buns, scones, tarts, cakes, turnovers, and cookies. Among the most popular is a crisp citrus sandwich cookie with a tart lemon ďŹ lling and its counterpoint, a soft chocolate cookie ďŹ lled with moka buttercream. The tart varieties are always a reection of the season with fresh fruits and berries from fellow vendors at the market, some of the sweetest strawberries in June might be paired with a dark chocolate ganache in a toasty hazelnut crust and in the fall fresh plums nestled in almond frangipane. Their Rhubarb Upside-down cake has an avid fan base! Always available by the slice or whole is the famous Italian AlmondCake, a rich, buttery torte, perfect with coee for an afternoon break. Katie is inspired by customer requests, she loves to bake things that people can’t buy everywhere or something that they might remember from childhood, that Mom or Grandma used to make. “Delighting people with my baking is what makes me happy,â€? she said. “It makes the long hours and early mornings rewarding, I love

seeing my customers with smiles on their faces and crumbs on their chins!â€? PaciďŹ c Sourdough also has “Thursday Bake Saleâ€? at their wholesale bakery, 740 NE Mill Street in Waldport, so if you are craving more, stop by on Thursdays from 10 to 3 and indulge! PaciďŹ c Sourdough HOT! ďŹ res up their BBQ grills every Saturday at the Newport Farmers Market. Loyal customers wait all winter and are excited to eat delicious, crisp, chewy, smoky, hand made grilled pizza. Inspired by the fresh pizza he ate in Rome, Mike Smith co-owner of PaciďŹ c Sourdough Bakery creates wonderful combinations of grilled pizza with toppings and avors inspired by what is available at the market. Customer favorites include Roast Garlic and Spring Greens in the early season and Fresh Corn and Bacon later in the summer. Come to the market and look for the red tent or just ask one of the smiling pizza munching folks to point the way! See Pacific Sourdough and Pacific Soudough HOT! at the Newport Farmers Market, Saturdays from 9 a.m.-1 p.m.

Lori Lemons and Nancy Burke of Dancing Mermaids

hen it comes to crafting techniques that have stood the test of time, Lincoln City Farmers Market is something of a hot spot, boasting two vendors whose family trades go back three generations. Lori Lemons of Dancing Mermaids started making jewelry more than 40 years ago, at the age of 16, taught by her parents and influenced by her stonecutter grandfather. Beginning with simple ear-rings and anklets, Lemons now offers complex pieces, including jewelry crafted from dichroic glass, pearls and gemstones. Lemons said being at the farmers market gives her the opportunity to talk to people about the techniques she uses to create her jewelry as well as the wide range of fiber arts on offer at the stall – including her bestsellers, her popular hand-felted hats. “I meet a lot of wonderful people,” she said. “They ask me how I make my hats, what’s the process. It’s intriguing to them.” That process begins with Lemons knitting or crocheting the basic shape of the hat and then agitating the wool by running it through

the washing machine along with a pair of jeans, resulting in a smooth, flat finish. After that, the hat is ready to be molded into shape. Lemons’ hats run from $20 to $40, while jewelry starts at $15. Time-tested techniques are also on offer at the Feathershakers stall run by Megan Gill, who learned her fiber arts skills from her grandma, great aunt and a 101-year-old next door neighbor. “I grew up with a lot of crafters in my family, I was probably three when I learned to sew and crochet,” she said. “I learned the basic line stitch and made afghan after afghan.”

Having moved to the coast from Portland, Gill set up shop in Lincoln City, opening the Speakeasy Body Jewelry and Boutique at 1644 NE Hwy. 101. She is now in her third year at the Lincoln City market, selling a wide range of products, including crocheted hats, tutus, shorts, bibs and aprons. Among Gill’s most distinctive products are her fascinators — miniature hats in styles ranging from tri-corner to top hat for the woman who wants to make a statement. The fascinators are among her best sellers, along with tutus in a bold range of colors. “Everybody loves tutus,” she said. Putting the feather in Feathershakers are Gill’s range of hair feathers, plucked lovingly from the tails of roosters, guinea fowl, pheasants, peacocks and turkeys before being hand dyed to add to their natural pizazz. Popular with girls of all ages, the feathers can be clipped into he hair or secured semi-permanently with a crimp bead.

See Dancing Mermaids and Feathershakers at the Lincoln City Farmers Market from 9 a.m.-3 p.m. every Sunday or on Facebook.

T

he Neskowin Farmers Market gets going early, with locals stocking up on their weekly groceries as soon as the stalls open at 9 am. But if you feel aggrieved at having to cut short your lie in to get your pick of the loaves, spare a thought for Ethan Granberg Find the Rockfish Bakery at and Danelle Neskowin Farmers Market Lochrie of the every Saturday from 9 Rockfish Bakery, a.m.-1 p.m. and at 3026 who start baking NE Highway 101, call at 1 am in 541-996-1006 or go to order to satisfy www.rockfishbakery.com. demand. All those hours of baking result in a stall heaving with a full range of breads; from ciabatta and baguettes to 10-grain whole wheat and raisin bread. Taking pride of place in the breadbasket is the Rockfish Loaf — a mild sourdough that

the couple have developed as their signature bread. Also a key seller during those early-morning rushes are breakfast pastries — including scones, bran muffins, cookies and the bakery’s popular cinnamon roll. “We do a lot of cinnamon rolls at the farmers markets,” Granberg said, adding: “When people are on vacation, I guess they think calories don’t count.” But Granberg said anyone looking for the Rockfish’s famed Homemade Ding Dong will have to visit the bakery in Lincoln City. The chocolate and cream concoction needs to be refrigerated until the point of sale. “I just point them in the direction of the bakery,” he said. This year, rather than balance appearances at the Lincoln City and the Neskowin farmers markets, the couple have decided to focus solely on Neskowin. With the time they save, they

will be turning their attention to a series of pizza nights — serving up East Coast-style thin crust pizza from 5-8 pm every Sunday. The evenings, which began on Sunday, May 12, are slated to run throughout the summer and possibly become a permanent feature. Granberg said going to the Neskowin Farmers Market every week allows him to get his own shopping done at the same time. “During farmers market season, I buy at least 50 percent of the produce for our lunches at the farmers market,” he said. Grains for the couple’s breads come from a local farm as do summer berries used in the bakery’s pastries. Much of the meat used in the lunch dishes is sourced from Walker Farms of Siletz. Granberg said being at the market also gives him the chance to have valuable one-on-one time with a wider range of customers. “It gets our name out there,” he

or 35 years, Bear Creek Artichokes has served as a landmark for anyone traveling Highway 101 through the leafy coastal hills of south Tillamook County. Sitting just north of Beaver, and about 11 miles south of Tillamook, the colorful roadside market, with farm and greenhouse, beckons to passersby with the promise of a warm welcome and fresh produce. And, in the past few years, owner and operator Cindy Miles, who co-founded the business in 1977, has expanded her business to include summertime selling

Bear Creek Artichokes is online at www.bearcreekartichokes.com and on Facebook. The booth will be at the farmers market in Tillamook this summer, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. every Saturday from June 15 through September 28. Stop in and talk with Cindy, or reach her by phone at 503-398-5411.

at the weekly farmers market in Tillamook. Cindy stocks her farmers market booth with a wide variety of decorative floral plants; homemade pestos, artichoke dips, hummus, syrups and jams; freshly made baked goods, such as apple dumplings, cobblers, danishes, and scones; and freshly picked locally grown vegetables, such as peas, beans, lettuces, and (of course) artichokes when in season. Freshly made bruschettas (Italian antipasto, attractively packaged in glass jars) are a recent addition. Bear Creek originally started as an artichoke farm and has continually evolved over the years. While still raising artichokes, the establishment now also has a fall pumpkin patch, and some fresh-picked summer veggies from its gardens. It includes the fruit stand specializing in a wide variety of

Northwest produce. Visitors can check out the gift shop, garden room, retail greenhouse, display pond, and the farm kitchen as well as taking a stroll through the beautiful perennial display gardens located on the North side of the store. The business includes a wholesale division, offering products to food markets and restaurants in Tillamook County and in the Portland area. Cindy relies on fresh classic ingredients to make her dips, pestos, and hummus; ingredients like garbanzo beans, sesame seeds, roasted garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil. Additions might include tomatoes or kalamata olives, among other Mediterranean-style items. She offers three varieties of pesto and three varieties of artichoke dip. “Visitors from Italy have said my pestos remind them of home,” she said.

ȱ ȱ ȱę ȱ ě R on Baur of Spirit Creek Walking Sticks prides himself on creating “The Art of the Journey” as he crafts artisan staffs from the Central Coast’s abundant red alder wood. And amassing the skills needed to create such heirloom pieces has been a journey of its own for the craftsman, who sells his wares at the Lincoln City Farmers Market. Baur grew up near the Cascade Mountains and high lakes of Central Oregon with a whittling knife in his hand. “I have always loved carving and working with wood,” he said, “even as a kid.” Working as a chef for many years allowed Baur to perfect the art of carving as he crafted ice sculptures for parties and weddings. Later, working as a painting contractor gave him a grounding in how to use custom stains and finishes on all types of wood. Baur started Spirit Creek Walking Sticks along with his wife, Jill, after moving to Wald-

Find Spirit Creek Walking sticks at the Lincoln City Farmers Market from 9 a.m.-3 p.m. every Sunday or on the web at www.spiritcreekwalkingsticks.com. For more information, call Baur at 541-563-5803 or email him at ron@spiritcreekwalkingsticks.com.

port in 2002, aiming to combine his love of carving with the desire to give creative energy, joy and support to others. “The Oregon Coast is rich with quality artists, keeping me inspired and humbled,” he said. While Baur’s carving techniques and designs are constantly evolving, each stick starts with a piece of red alder, a wood that is light, strong and develops a rich patina as it ages. “It is the ‘softest’ of the hardwoods,” he said, “and is a pleasure to carve.” Each stick’s contoured, hand-carved grip is then finished with hand-laced leather. Custom-dyed and hand-tooled leather is available on the deluxe versions. A unique feature on Baur’s

walking sticks is the leather wrist sling, which helps prevent fatigue in the staff-carrying arm and is fleece-lined for extra comfort. Off-the-shelf models range from $60 to $120 but Baur also hand-crafts walking sticks to order, with finishing touches including sterling silver, copper, brass, glass and even African trade beads. The couple also offer handmade leather bags that snap on to the walking stick for the beachcomber or naturalist on the move. “We love to work with our customers,” Baur said. “We can customize walking sticks for those who have specific requests in mind. They make great gifts for birthdays, holidays and retirement.”

ilson River Pottery began as a hobby for Andy Toth more than 30 years ago. Andy continued studying his craft at the Oregon School of Arts and Crafts in Portland, Oregon. Much of his pottery reflects the ever-changing hues and silhouettes of the Pacific Northwest. He and his wife, Tami, live in Tillamook, Oregon. Tami joined the pottery team primarily as the shop helper, but as time has moved on, and with Andy’s patient guidance, she has taken over the glazing of Wilson River Pottery. The couple are constantly experimenting with the colors and textures that define their work. Tami also designs and throws many of her own pieces. The husband-and-wife team creates bowls of all shapes and sizes, teapot sets, pitchers, vases,

butter dishes and much more. Their numerous coffee mugs range from dainty to daring. They also make complete place settings and do custom orders. Each individual piece is a one of a kind expression of the joy they found in creating it. They have shipped their pottery all over the United States. Wilson River Pottery is not just beautiful, it is safe for food and for use in dishwashers and microwaves. While Andy and Tami were busy making pottery, they also adopted a rescued kitten from United Paws of Tillamook. They named her FIG — it stands for “Found in Garbage“. FIG is now the spokes-kitten for Wilson River Pottery. Each piece of pottery is from their “FIGWARE” line. Each piece is stamped with a little paw print.

You can purchase FIGWARE from Wilson River Pottery at the Tillamook Farmers Market every Saturday 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., from June 15 to Sept. 28, at 2nd and Laurel Streets. You can also find Wilson River Pottery at Sunflower Flats Florist in Tillamook. FIGWARE is sold online at www.etsy.com/shop/wilsonriverpottery. Check out Wilson River Pottery on Facebook. You can call the Toths at 503-842-6652 or email wilsonriverpottery@yahoo.com.

Get a bead on quality jewelry

I

Eileen Flory For the TODAY

t’s not just the jewelry that sparkles at Linda Cline’s Bead Chicas booth. The artist herself has a 14-carat smile that makes even browsing a pleasure. Cline has been in the business for a dozen years now. “In 2000 a friend gave me a beaded bracelet and I ďŹ gured out how to make one like it,â€? she said. Cline got to making more and more beaded jewelry and has been at it seriously ever since. Once, briey, there were two chicas (a Spanish term of aection for “girlsâ€?), but she now works by herself with husband Eric’s logistical assistance. Cline purchases beads in huge batches so she can get a good deal, work her magic, and oer her products at aordable prices. There’s no retail markup at the farmers markets; Cline’s jewelry passes directly from her skillful hands to the buyer. Old-fashioned, personal, customer service keep Cline’s customers coming back. “I will replace a lost earring,â€? she said, “or ďŹ x a broken

piece of jewelry.â€? She uses only sterling silver and gold-ďŹ lled ďŹ ndings, plus gemstones, glass cane beads, Saworski crystals, and lots more. Cline thinks of her work as a career, not merely a hobby. She sells at arts and crafts shows in Western Oregon and galleries in Newport and Lincoln City. This year, Cline is excited about an ambitious arrangement to supply the Made in Oregon stores with her work. But she thrives on farmers markets. “The markets are kind of like a big family,â€? she said. “I meet a lot of people, and I have repeat customers.â€? Cline is in it for the long haul and enjoys being a part of the seasons and rhythms of the markets every year. “I do this as a career and I love it,â€? she said. “How lucky could that be?â€? Cline’s customers are lucky, too, to be on the receiving end of her dedication to quality, her fair prices, and her big smile. Find Cline’s creations under the Bead Chicas sign at the Newport Farmers Market from 9 a.m.-1 p.m. on Saturdays and the Lincoln City Farmers Market from 9 a.m.-3 p.m. on Sundays. To reach her, call 541-961-5251.
