Singing All-Stars Nestucca students shine in the limelight, garner awards in state honor competition

By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun EUGENE — For the first time in five years, Nestucca High School’s choir took to the limelight at the AllState Choir, an event that picks the top 250 singing voices from amongst all Oregon high schools each winter.

Taking the stage in Eugene’s Hult Center the weekend of Jan. 13-15 were Nestucca students Emma Higdon and Mackenzie Cook.

The Eugene concert included bands and orchestra. Nestucca Choir director Kathleen Serven said that the Honor Choir members gave a stirring performance of incredible choral music.

“The sound and precision that this group of students was capable of was inspiring,” she said.

Serven said that to get the nod for this exclusive honor, you have to be at the top of your game.

“You have to sing everything a

cappella,” she said. “You have to stay in key, kit pitches accurately and at the right tempo.”

And that’s exactly what Higdon and Cook did on demo CDs sent to the selection committee.

Serven said that both singers boast a soprano to alto range, have excellent music reading skills and also boast talents on musical instruments — Higdon is adept at tickling the ivories while Cook is at home with her tenor sax.

Local music fans got a taste of Higdon’s vocals last spring when she lent her vocal talents to her impression of Maria in Nestucca High School’s performance of the Sound of Music.

And she’s all set for an encore.

Higdon will reprise the role of the fairy godmother in Nestucca’s 2012 spring performance of Cinderella, which will take to the stage April 2728 at Nestucca High School.

NVCA sets development goals for new recreation area A bright

By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun PACIFIC CITY — Community leaders pooled their resources on Jan. 28 to help the Nestucca Valley Community Alliance get the wheels in motion for their planned development of 2.5 acres of Tillamook Lightwave’s cable landing station property into several community uses.

TLW and NVCA have previously agreed to a plan that will allow the Alliance to lease a 1.55-acre tract that could be used for long-term community recreation. Additionally, the groups plan on signing a revocable lease that would net NVCA another .85 acres, but that portion will be used for community parking, as in the case TLW needs the area for expansion, with advance notification they would be able to ask for that property back. TLW also will ink a long-term lease of .24 acres of the cable landing station property, which is located east of Cape Kiwanda Drive, to the Nestucca Fire Rural Protection District for a water rescue equipment storage facility.

NVCA’s plans for the 1.55-acre parcel are to build a multi-use recreation building, an amphitheater, meeting room, and display area. That piece would also feature playground equipment, picnic tables and two parking lots.

But to make all that happen, they need some help and that’s where the workshop on Jan. 28 came in.

Amongst the goals coming out of the meeting was the decision to move forward with developing a set of engineered plans with a focus on preparing the property, road and parking lot requirements. To accomplish this, NVCA plans to solicit civil engineers to create a master site plan, as well as plans that will address grading, drainage and the road layout.

They also plan on meeting with TLW and their

tenant, the University of Washington, to develop fencing and gating requirements. Though the property currently has a secure fence around its boundaries, an interior fence around the current building will be necessary to maintain security once the area is open to the public.

And because one of the biggest hurdles for a project like this quite simply comes down to money, Tillamook PUD board member Doug Olson pointed towards a grant that PUD is accepting applications on through Feb. 24. Final project selection for the grants, which can be for up to $10,000, will be in mid-March.

Suggested surrounding developing historical, artistic and cultural facets of the NVCA’s mission included constructing a native American canoe on site, the development of a display of a 1910 gillnet boat that would be provided by the Pacific City Dorymen’s Association, and creating space for field trips and classroom activities, as well as art shows. Other ideas included dory boat demonstrations by longtime dory builder Terry Learned, developing a NVCA booth at Dory Days and building a center for oceanography literature at the South Tillamook County Library.

The group also addressed educational outreach with a goal of bringing marine science and oceanography into the classroom and the community. Some of the possible programs that could be developed as early as this May include video feeds to TV screens in local libraries, schools and the Kiawanda Community Center; a speaker series of guest scientists; field tours sponsored by the University of Washington, Oregon State University and NOAA to their respective campuses; and informal workshops for students that could feature classroom games.

The NVCA next meets Feb. 15 when they will discuss the PUD grant application. Contact Gloria Scullin at nvcainfo@gmail.com for more information.

CHURCH LIFE

Going Native Duo to share challenges of sharing the gospel to Canada’s Indian culture PACIFIC CITY — Sometimes the call of the gospel is near — as is the case of South Tillamook County’s many havens of spiritual growth — other times, it’s a far away culture that missionaries answer the call to.

Such is the MISSIONARIES Joel and case with Joel and Amanda Sewell will share Amanda Sewell, the challenges of reaching who will tell of their the Stoney People, a native plight to share the Indian tribe in Alberta, Good News with Canada on Feb. 12 at Pathe native Indians cific Coast Bible Church. in Alberta, Canada’s Eden Valley, during Pacific Coast Bible Church’s Feb. 12 Sunday service, which starts at 9:30 a.m.

The couple has served InterAct’s goal of reaching the unreached at Eden Valley since 2008, when they began witnessing to the Stoney People, who are part of the Nakoda tribe.

“We welcome anyone who would like to join us to hear the update of their several years-long ministry to the native Stoney Indians of Alberta,” said Don Wood, missions coordinator at Pacific Coast Bible Church.

Though they are both Michigan natives, the Sewells first met in Alaska in 2001. They were married in 2003. It was during this time that God placed a burden on their hearts to serve God in missions. They joined InterAct Ministries, whose goal is to glorify God by fulfilling the Great Commission among unreached people groups.

InterAct wants to see a culturally relevant church transforming every community in the North Pacific Crescent. The North Pacific Crescent is their term for that part of the world over the top of the Pacific Ocean — Siberia, Alaska, western Canada. The North Pacific Crescent includes 12,000 communities that lack a visible expression of the church of Jesus Christ.

The pair’s first missionary experience was during a internship with InterAct in 2007 when they taught among the Chilcotin Indians in British Columbia.

Located in downtown Pacific City at 35220 Brooten Road, Pacific Coast Bible Church has served the community for more than 15 years.

Sunday morning service is at 9:30 a.m. with adult and children classes following. For more information, call 503-965-7222.

PACIFIC CITY ART GALLERY owner Rick LaBlue prides himself on his gallery’s wide range of art — a collection of work that he says speaks to the viewer’s emotions. The longtime home of local painter Rose Perez’s works also boasts one-of-a-kind pieces from a variety of media including ceramics, glass art, oil on canvas paintings, jewelry, affordable gifts and more.

Art for All Tastes Visit Pacific City Art Gallery for art that stretches the boundaries

By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun PACIFIC CITY — To Pacific City Art Gallery owner Rick LaBlue art is a lot of things, but what it really boils down to are the feelings that a wellcrafted piece elicits.

“We try to sell emotional art,” says LaBlue.

“It takes you on a journey. It takes you to a place you’ve been, reminds you of where you’re at or takes you to a place where you’ve never been but would like to be. If it stirs your emotions, the art has done its job.”

Because what that might mean to you is in all likelihood a different take than your neighbor up the street, the gallery’s selection of art spans the gamut from affordable and whimsical pieces to the striking beauty of Rose Perez’s scenes of Cape Kiwanda.

“Art is a different thing for different people,” he says.

Now in its 12th year, the gallery has been serving art aficionados from near and far since October 2000. Located at 35350 Brooten Road, Pacific

City Gallery features everything from blown glass to jewelry, oil paintings to ceramics, fused glass to photography, pottery to metal art, and more.

“We’ve always tried to have every kind of art,” LaBlue said. “Anybody can afford a nice piece of art here even if they don’t have a gold American Express Card.”

He adds that many of his artists often produce cutting edge pieces by making use of a different process or medium. In an industry where every piece is unique, he looks for and showcases artists that have just a little bit more.

That might mean Warren Dahl’s technique of stretching his paintings to the frame’s beveled edge to create added depth, Deborah Sprague’s creative use of mixed media or the striking color placement of Sharon Engel’s beach scenes painted on canvas.

And this uniqueness has been well received.

“The customers that keep coming back have grown to expect art on the cutting edge or a little on the unusual side,” he said.

Taking Credit Nestucca Fire OKs use of $250,000 credit line for construction of new station, updates general contractor agreement

By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun HEBO — The Nestucca Rural Fire Protection District approved a plan to reserve a $250,000 credit line at TLC Federal Credit Union, which the department will use to fill in the gap to pay for the building of a new fire station in Hebo.

According to the current budget for the construction of the 9,595 square foot administrative center and fire hall, the insurance settlement the district received for the fire that claimed its former headquarters in Cloverdale will fall nearly $150,000 short of what’s needed to complete the project. However, after hearing the testimony of project manager Doug Olson, the board members opted for the larger amount.

“It’s a fair statement to the community that you’re probably going to spend less than $200,000, and you’re going to get a $2 million fire station for that,” said Olson. “The debt service is $184 a year. That’s pretty cheap money.”

The extra funds became necessary when the board opted for adding residential quarters for volunteer firefighters, as well as adding back in key elements — including adding a mezza-

nine structure, upgraded siding, copper wiring and a sprinkler system — that an earlier budget had axed.

The board also approved an amendment to the guaranteed maximum price agreement with its general contractor, Dalke Construction. Including an $85,000 contingency, the contract calls for a guaranteed maximum price of $1.76 million. The budget for the entire project including engineering costs is $2.43 million. According to Scott Dalke of Dalke Construction, the project should be move-in ready by June 2012.

Land Swap Nears Completion The district also received good news from a series of soil tests on the site of its former station in Cloverdale.

Test results showed no evidence of any contaminates. According to Olson, all that remains now for the proposed land swap between the district and Tillamook County for the Cloverdale and Hebo properties is a letter of “no further action” from DEQ.

NESTUCCA FIRE CHIEF Kris Weiland is excited about the firefighting possiblities of the district’s newest acquisition — a 46foot ladder truck purchased from the City of Renton for $10,000. Weiland expects the truck will be fully outfitted and ready for service in 30 to 60 days.

District’s newest addition adds

needed REACH

By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun HEBO — Meet the long arm of the fire district!

The Nestucca Rural Fire Protection District has a new weapon to wield in its battle against flaming infernos, a 46foot ladder truck built in 1986 that has most recently served the City of Renton in a reserve role.

“We’ve sort of given it a new lease on life,” said Nestucca Fire Chief Kris Weiland on the district’s newest equipment acquisition.

Though its service at Renton was in a back-up role, that wasn’t because it wasn’t a capable rig. And Weiland should know. During his career in Renton, the Nestucca fire chief operating the rig from 2001 to 2006. He said that during this time up north, the rig

wall well-maintained and served the district well.

Featuring a ladder that extends to 110 feet, Weiland bills the vehicle as a crucial measure capable of both defensive and aggressive firefighting. Though he says that typically ladder trucks are called into action when the building involved is a lost cause and the firefighting effort is more concerned with saving neighboring buildings, that won’t always be the case here. He said there will likely be situations where firefighters can’t get close enough and that those are just the kind of situations where the long reach of the rig will provide valuable access into the involved structure.

Though the rig does not include a water pump, it can easily be hooked up to Nestucca’s own dedicated pumper and that will give firefighters access to a tremendous amount of flame-dousing

water — whether that be in a defensive fight to save a nearby structure or a gateway that will take Nestucca’s volunteer force into the inferno in an attempt to win the day.

The truck is currently being housed at Tillamook PUD’s storage building in Hebo, but will make the short trek to the district’s new Hebo station when the fire hall and administrative center opens later this year. If the current construction schedule holds true, that would mean the rig will take up occupancy this June.

Prior to that move, however, comes the task of readying the truck for service. As the truck was purchased bare bones, Weiland expects the district will spend $5,000 to outfit the truck with a variety of firefighting equipment. He said the truck should be ready for service in 30 to 60 days.

Landing a Lease PCJWSA submits application for 75-acre BLM tract

By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun PACIFIC CITY — Pacific City Joint Water-Sanitary Authority submitted a revised proposal to the Bureau of Land Management on Jan. 17 for a Recreational and Public Purposes lease on an approximately 75-acre BLM tract located east of Cape Kiwanda. The current application is a revision of PCJWSA’s original application, which was submitted in April 2009.

If approved, the R&PP lease would set aside 33 acres that would be reserved for a community emergency response evacuation area, as well as for future PCJWSA improvements — including sites for a water reservoir and the expansion of the wastewater treatment plant. Additionally, the site, which lies on the eastern borders of Cape Kiwanda RV Resort, Tillamook Lightwave’s cable landing station and the Dory Pointe subdivision, would feature 42.5 acres of green space that would be used to develop a looped nature trail and viewpoints.

Though PCJWSA says that at this

stage timelines are difficult to predict, they are suggesting the emergency response area be developed in 3 to 5 years, the new water reservoir in 10 to 15 years, and the new wastewater treatment plant in more than 20 years.

A key part of the recreational piece will be the development of trailhead access that the Nestucca Valley Community Alliance is planning on the adjacent cable landing station property owned by TLW. PCJWSA hopes to be able to secure this access and build a walking/hiking trail that would include viewpoints, benches and signage within three years.

Other proposed uses that could be developed at a later time include trail signage for plants and historical information, additional benches, a children’s natural play area, an unimproved picnic area and a connection to US Forest Serve trails.

At press time, Tillamook BLM Manager Steve Small was unavailable for comment, but PCJWSA Manager Tony Owen said he expects the approval process to take 18 to 24 months and to include a chance for community input via public meetings.

Making a Transfer Clackamas Construction is apparent low bidder for new sewer pump station

By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun PACIFIC CITY — The Pacific City Joint Water-Sanitary Authority opened bids from four pre-qualified competitors for its airport pump station replacement project on Thursday, Feb. 2. Clackamas Construction was the apparent low bidder with an offer to build a sanitary sewer pump station and generator building for $948,095.

The high bid was more than $1.11 million.

Engineering, inspections, coatings, and equipment are expected to add between $200,000 to $300,000 to the total cost of the project.

PCJWSA Manager Tony Owen is currently verifying Clackamas Construction’s bid. He said that once that

is done he will schedule a special board of directors meeting, during which the board will have the opportunity to select a construction company for the project. Owen said that he hopes to hold the special meeting no later than Feb. 21. If the board approves a contractor at that time, he said that construction would likely commence between mid and late March.

The project will include the construction of a 20-foot by 20-foot building and will feature a 15-inch gravity sewer, 10-inch diameter force main and three submersible pumps.

PCJWSA already has approvals for the work from both Tillamook County and the Oregon Department of Aviation, but the contractor will be responsible for all other necessary permits.

Acoustic Flavor

The Elliotts bring their acoutisic sound to Stimulus Café on Feb. 18 PACIFIC CITY — From the singer-songwriter traditions of the 70s to their own sense of modern sensibility, the Elliotts are a showcase of today’s acoustic sound. The duo will lend their musical vibe to Stimulus Espresso Café’s ocean view setting for a night of original tunes on Saturday, Feb. 18 starting at 6 p.m.

The Elliotts have been writing and performing as an acoustic duo for the last seven years.

Adam and Sydney Elliott hail from the Portlandbased group Smidgen. Here at the coast, Sydney works as an English instructor at Tillamook Bay Community College, and Adam works as an electrician. The couple have been married for five years and live on the scenic Nestucca River.

The Elliotts released their first album in January of 2009 titled “Winter Formal,” named in memorandum of a student and neighbor who was killed in an auto accident on her way to the

Propping up community events TILLAMOOK — The Tillamook County Cultural Coalition gave a boost to five cultural events spread throughout the county on the strength of $6,305 in grants awarded on Jan. 16.

Grant awards ranged from $700 to $1,950 and included monies allocated to the Tillamook County Arts Network, the North Coast Symphony, historian Mark Beach, the Bay City Arts Center, and artist Glenna Gray.

TCAN received $1,550 to assist in the production of the second all-county art show highlighting creative expression in Tillamook County. The show will take place this August and September.

The North Oregon Coast Symphony was awarded $700 to enable the purchase of a glockenspiel. NOCS presents 8-10 concerts each year in Tillamook and Clatsop counties.

Nestucca falls to Gaston

Welcome

Erin Oldenkamp

By DEE MOORE for the Sun GASTON — After a string of disappointing losses, the Bobcats hoped to pull off a miracle on Feb. 9 and earn themselves a place at the district playoffs, but even their best game was not good enough to put the Gaston Greyhounds behind them and get a step closer to their goal.

They ended up trailing Gaston most of the night, losing to the ‘Hounds (12-7 overall), 58-40.

Though seniors Tyler Zeller and Nick Ahn began an aggressive game as they repeatedly hounded the boards and kept Gaston on their toes, by the first minute and a half of the game, Gaston had scored twice.

The ‘Cats responded early on the strength of a string of hoops by both Zeller, Ahn and Mike Tipton— an effort that gave Nestucca their first and only lead of the game, 8-4.

Though the ‘Cats remained solid on the boards, they had difficulty converting. By the end of the first quarter, Gaston was rolling Photo by Kelly Taylor and took a 24-9 lead into the second period.

The Nestucca Bobcats found themselves playing from beDespite the loss, Ahn continued his solid hind in a Feb. 9 contest against the Gaston Greyhounds, losing play and was pure poetry in motion, execut58-40.

But their 7-15 record is Saturday, Feb. 11 when the Logall this effort did not prevent the ‘Hounds from pulling gers come to town followed by a chance at redemption ahead even farther and Nestucca found themselves in when Gaston travels to Cloverdale to face the ‘Cats on a 34-18 hole at the half. That deficit ballooned to 48-25 their home turf.

Greyhounds outsprint Lady ‘Cats

By DEE MOORE for the Sun GASTON — The Lady Cats met the Gaston Greyhounds Feb. 9, but the contest quickly turned into an exercise in frustration as Nestucca succumbed to the ‘Hounds 70-23.

Fouls hounded the ‘Cats as did fumbles and near misses. If every rebound could have been converted into points, the ‘Cats would have come out on top but that was not the case for Nestucca.

The Lady ‘Hounds were “scrappy” according to head coach B.J. Chatelain. They came out scrambling, taking every risk and every opportunity and converting each and every one into gold.

This proved fatal for Nestucca. Gaston scored less than a minute into the game and never let up. Though the ‘Cats were strong on the boards, Gaston seldom relinquished the ball without a fight.

The rebounding of junior Jasmine Boisa frequently was a bright spot, but converting those boards into points was another story.

Despite a Sophia Solano three-pointer near the close of the first quarter, Nestucca found themselves down 29-7 by the close of the opening period.

The second quarter was more of the same. The ‘Hounds nearly doubled and went into the locker room with a 49-11 advantage.

Though Solano picked up where she left off at the start of the second half, the Cat’s defense could not come close to stopping the ‘Hounds’ scoring machine.

In desperation, Nestucca began shooting quickly and hit the bottom of the net little.

If only this team could play every game like they were in the last quarter, they’d win all the time. The last two minutes perfectly demonstrated this. Boisa continued to press the ball into Nestucca territory, passing to Solano who added six more.
