THE SOUTH TILLAMOOK COUNTY PIE NIGHT, featuring a pie auction and all-you-can-eat pie feast, will hold its 5th annual event Saturday, March 16.

ive members of the Nestucca Rural Fire Protection District are planning on joining more than 2,000 firefighters from across the U.S. and around the world to participate in the 28th annual Leukemia & Lymphoma Society Firefighter Stair Climb at the Columbia Center in downtown Seattle, which is scheduled for Sunday, March 10.

Nestucca firefighters planning on participating in the sold-out event include Nick Sheridan, Roy Hansen, Alex Ponot, Lucas Slavens and Battalion Chief Brian Jones. Each member is required to raise a minimum of $300 to participate in the climb.

Held at Seattle’s Columbia Center, the climb will feature a climb of 788 feet of vertical elevation as firefighters ascend 69 flights of stairs and 1,356 steps to reach the building’s Sky View Observatory, which overlooks the Emerald City. The Columbia Center is the second tallest building west of the Mississippi and the tallest in Seattle.

The event has a goal of raising $2.75 million in 2019 and had reached 53 percent of that goal as of press time. Those wishing to donate in support of Nestucca firefighters, can donate at llswa.org/site/TR?fr_ id=1620&pg=entry.

The consistently sold-out event is open solely to career or volunteer firefighters who must complete the challenging course in full structural turnout gear, while on-air. According

(Not Pictured is FF Lucas Slavens.) to event organizers, completing the climb is a physical triumph in itself, but is also symbolic of, yet pales in comparison to, the strenuous journey that blood cancer patients endure.

As firefighters race to the top, they keep in mind that every step forward

is representative of moving toward finding a cure for all those battling this disease. In 2018, climbers brought in a record $2.61 million for blood cancer research and patient services. In total, the event has raised more than $17 million for LLS.

Serving Up a Slice of Fun South County Pie Night returns March 16 with delectable desserts, entertainment

By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun

Y

ou can have your slice of pie and help a charity, too, when the South County Pie Night serves up a night of entertainment and tasty treats on Saturday, March 16 at Kiawanda Community Center.

The fifth annual fundraiser for four local food-related charities — the South Tillamook County Food Pantry, the Pacific City Farmers’ Market, the Neskowin Farmers’ Market and Food Roots — will feature a pie auction, an all-you-caneat pie feast and music by local artist Donna Jose.

The fun starts when doors open at 6:30 p.m., followed by the pie auction — featuring 30 specially baked pies —at 7 p.m. Dennis Love will handle the auctioneer duties. The event runs until 9 p.m.

“The 30 pies that are coming in are going to be spectacular,” organizer Laine Koch told the Sun. “We have pies coming from incredible bakers. We’ve built quite a reputation for these outrageous and beautiful pies so people are really stepping up to bake something not only delicious but beautiful as well.”

Following the auction, attendees will be invited to fully satisfy their sweet tooth during the event’s all-you-can-eat pie and ice cream feast. Pelican Brewing beer and wine from Twist Wine Co. will also be available for purchase.

Koch, who works as office administrator for Food Roots bills the event as a good fit for the food-related charities that it is raising funds for.

“It’s really a great community event that highlights the food producers in our community,” she said.

She also credits the success of the event to its many sponsors, including this year’s presenting sponsor, the Pacific City branch of Windermere Real Estate.

That support has helped enable the event to raise in excess of $12,000 in 2018, as well as approximately $12,000 in 2017 and $10,000 in 2016 on the strength of an attendance of about 125 to 150 people together with sponsor support. Koch says she hopes to duplicate that fundraising success again this year.

Koch also said the addition of Jose’s musical talents was a big hit last year and is excited to have her return in 2019.

REVELERS will have the chance to bid on specially made pies during the fifth annual South County Pie Night on Saturday, March 16 at Kiawanda Community Center.

The fundraising event, which will also feature an all-you-can-eat pie and ice cream feast, will support four food-related charities.

Admission is $10.

“It added a wonderful dimension to the event,” she said. “I think it helped get everyone in a good mood. We’re excited that she wanted to come back.”

Founded in 2006 in Tillamook, Food Roots (foodrootsnw. org) seeks to grow a more robust food system on the North Oregon Coast by engaging the community, supporting farmers and entrepreneurs, and improving access to local food. The organization works throughout Tillamook County and conducts specific activities in South County, including providing garden-based lessons to Nestucca Valley Elementary, Nestucca Valley Early Learning Center, and Neskowin Valley School students. They also have conducted free six-week Seed to Supper gardening workshops for low-income adults in South County for the third year in a row, as well as helped to support and fund the SNAP and Double Up Food Bucks programs at the Neskowin and Pacific City Farmers Markets.

The South County Food Pantry provides emergency food services and other hunger-fighting outreach pro-

grams to residents of South Tillamook County. The Pacific City Farmers Market brings farm-fresh food directly to shoppers every Sunday during the summer, providing a marketplace for farmers, food entrepreneurs, and eaters to come together. The Neskowin Farmers Market provides a marketplace for farmers, fishers, food entrepreneurs, crafters, and eaters every Saturday during the summer at the Neskowin Beach Wayside.

Admission to the event is $10 for adults and $5 for children 12 and under.

Advance tickets are available at Rowboat Gallery, 34950 Brooten Rd., Pacific City; Kiawanda Community Center, 34600 Cape Kiwanda Dr., Pacific City or online at foodroots.org. Attendees can also purchase tickets at the door. For more information, call Food Roots at 503-8152800.

estucca Jr.-Sr. High School student Nastasha Love got an up-close and personal look at the Oregon Legislature when the senior visited the Oregon Capitol in Salem on Tuesday, Feb. 19 during the legislature’s Lobby Days.

Love had been selected by Blue Chalk Media, a marketing group that the Oregon School Board Association is employing to highlight students throughout the state as part of its “The Promise of Oregon” campaign.

OSBA, a member services organization based in Salem, founded “The Promise of Oregon” campaign in 2014 “to focus attention on the accomplishments of Oregon’s kindergarten-12 students and the need to adequately fund public education.”

On its website, OSBA says the goal of the campaign is to highlight the aspirations of students and demonstrate “their incredible accomplishments and potential” through a series of photographs, videos and stories. The campaign also provides school board members and other education advocates SEN.

Historian to examine ‘Ships of the Farmers’ at March 10 Great Speaker Series talk The Tillamook County Pioneer Museum will host Portland historian Jerry Sutherland during a Great Speaker Series event on Sunday, March 10, starting at 1 p.m.

Sutherland will discuss “Ships of the Farmers” at the 1 p.m. presentation with a slide show featuring maps, original manuscripts, photos, and other images. The author will also tell the story of ships that were built by Tillamook pioneers in the mid-1800s.

The author’s credits include a book titled “Calvin Tibbets: Oregon’s First Pioneer.” During his research at National Archive branches in Seattle and San Bruno when he was looking for more information about the Pioneer — a schooner Calvin Tibbets helped build and sail to California in 1848 — Sutherland discovered the Morning Star was not the only ship built by Tillamook pioneers. When he shared this information with Pioneer Museum staff, they quickly added him to the list of speakers.

Sutherland has also written 72 articles about Bayocean (bayocean. net) since 2015, spending many days researching at Tillamook institutions, interviewing Bayocean alumni and government officials, and exploring Bayocean Spit.

Sponsored by the Tillamook County Pioneer Museum’s Daisy Fund, the Great Speaker Series event is free and open to the public. Tillamook County Pioneer Museum is located at 2106 2nd St., Tillamook. For more information, call 503-842-4553.

Mandelring Quartett to bring their award-winning talents to the 25th season of the Neskowin Chamber Music series on March 17

he Mandelring Quartett will bring its more than 30 years of experience as a musical ensemble when it plays a Neskowin Chamber Music concert on Sunday, March 17, 3 p.m., at the Chapel at Camp Wi-Ne-Ma. Comprised of siblings Nanette (violin), Sebastian (violin), and Bernhard Schmidt (cello) as well as violist Andreas Willwohl, the groups hails from the wine country region of Germany.

Mandelring has appeared in concert venues all over Europe and the United States — a wide-ranging experience that has stretched from Vienna to London, and Madrid to New York, Los Angeles and Vancouver. Its members have won numerous competitions, starting with one in Munich that launched their careers. They give an annual festival in their home town of Neustadt-on-the Weinstrasse (the Wine Road). Since 2010, the quartet has presented a regular concert series in the Chamber Music Hall of the Berlin Philharmonic.

“Wherever these four musicians appear, they

leave behind lasting musical impressions,” wrote the Salzburger Nachrichten newspaper about one of their concerts, calling it “a memorable festival experience not likely to be equaled in the near future.”

Along with their many live performances, the Mandelring Quartett has made a number of CD recordings. Their recording of the complete quartets of Shostakovich attracted particular attention and came to be known as the benchmark recording of these works. Their recording of Mendelssohn’s chamber music for strings was also widely acclaimed. The group’s current project is a complete recording of all the string chamber music of Brahms.

Season tickets to the 25th anniversary season of the Neskowin Chamber Music series are available for $110 each. Individual tickets are $25. For more information, call 503-965-6499 or visit neskowinchambermusic.org.

Camp Wi-Ne-Ma is located three miles north of Neskowin, just off Highway 101.

Unstable slopes on Oregon’s coastline could see a 30 percent jump in landslide movements if extreme storms become frequent enough to increase seacliff erosion by 10 percent, a new study by Oregon State University shows.

For many slope failures traversing Highway 101, these cliffs form the base of active slides that already move a little every year, said the study’s corresponding author, Ben Leshchinsky, a forest engineering and civil engineering researcher at OSU. The findings are especially impactful for slides along the 360-mile-long coastline that are highly susceptible to “toe erosion” – the removal of buttressing material at the base via waves or river scour.

“The really big slides, the monstrous landslides that span hundreds of acres, are so large and driven by water that their instability is less dominated by erosion,” Leshchinsky said. “But the ones that are highly exposed to erosion from the ocean, if we see increased extreme events like storm surge, then we’ll see increased bluff erosion. These creeping landslides that are already active and moving every year, they’ll move a lot more. If erosion increases 10 percent, slide movements might increase by 20 or 30 percent.”

Also known as slow earthflows, the slides are prone to gradual movement, the result of being marginally stable to begin with, coupled with seasonal changes in the water pressure within their soil.

Fluctuations in groundwater levels are primarily what drive changes in pore pressure and in turn landslide movement, but undercutting and “toe retreat” also play key roles, Leshchinsky said. As a bluff’s toe erodes, the soil in the bluff shifts gradually – sometimes ending in collapses that can topple houses and bury roads such as Highway 101, which runs the length of the Oregon coast.

“What’s going on may often be imperceptible until a landslide begins to compromise infrastructure like underground utilities or roads,” he said.

Leshchinsky and collaborators developed a model to determine the relationship between progressive landslide movement and slope geometry, undercutting processes and hydrological changes. The model showed agreement with data gathered at three monitored slide sites along Oregon’s shoreline.

“The smaller progressive slides are particularly sensitive to movements and undercutting,” he said.

“Our model shows the shorter-length landslides are proportionately more destabilized by the removal of buttressing materials.”

The observed rates of landslide advance demonstrate sensitivity to changes in erosion rates, he said, highlighting the potential impacts of increased future wave attack or fluvial erosion – both of which could be exacerbated by a changing climate.

“The sensitivity of slope movements to the rate of these processes highlights the importance of gathering coastal erosion data over time, especially considering estimates of future sea level rise and possible changes in the magnitude and frequency of coastal storms,” Leshchinsky said. “If we can decrease erosion, then for some of the smaller slides, we could, potentially, arrest or slow slide movement significantly.”

Options for decreasing erosion include dune-stabilizing vegetation where applicable, seawalls, riprap and revetments.

Revetments are sloping structures placed some distance from a bluff. They are designed to absorb wave energy before it hits the bluff. Newer armoring technology, like dynamic revetments, characterized as cobbles placed along the toe of sea cliffs, have also been used to absorb wave energy, but require significant quantities of material and frequent maintenance.

Riprap refers to large, loose boulders; placed at the toe of a bluff, it provides stability in the manner of a flying buttress. But its use in Oregon was severely restricted in the early 1970s by the state legislature, which sided with critics who called it an eyesore that ruined beaches and caused erosion elsewhere.

“There is some truth that riprap, by virtue of preventing erosion in a given location, may shift erosion elsewhere and slows the creation of new sand, which often comes from the sea cliffs failing and degrading into new sand,” Leshchinsky said. “However, in limited, controlled applications to conserve exposed critical infrastructure, the benefits may outweigh the cost.”

Collaborating with Leshchinsky were Michael Olsen, Matt O’Banion, Michael Bunn and Andrew Senogles of the College of Engineering, Reilly McClung of the College of Forestry, Curran Mohney of the Oregon Department of Transportation, and Jonathan Allan of the Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries.

ODOT and the US Department of Agriculture supported this research. Findings were published in AGU Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface.

Wyden hails House Passage of Bipartisan Public Lands Bill U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden welcomed the Feb. 26 House passage of the bipartisan public lands legislation that passed the Senate earlier this month.

The bill is the largest public lands package passed

by Congress in a decade and includes important conservation and wildfire protections for Oregon secured by Wyden.

“At my town halls, and in line at the grocery store, I hear from Oregonian after Oregonian who wants our state’s special places protected. Now, even more of Oregon’s natural treasures will be preserved for future generations to enjoy, our recreation economy will continue to grow and thrive, and communities in Oregon will be better protected from the threat of wildfire,” said Wyden. “Today, I celebrate yet another proud chapter of Oregon’s conservation legacy, but this book is far from finished—and I’ll be coming back for more.”

When the bill is signed into law, Wyden will have championed the designation of 1,986 miles of Wild and Scenic rivers in Oregon—more than any other member of Congress, overall, for the contiguous 48 states—ensuring Oregon will have the most wild and scenic river designations in the continental United States.

The bipartisan public lands bill passed by Congress includes provisions of Wyden and Sen. Jeff Merkley’s Oregon Wildlands Act that will: create the Devil’s Staircase Wilderness by designating roughly 30,000 acres of remote lands in the Oregon Coast Range; permanently protect the Chetco River — a

critical source of drinking water and habitat for endangered salmon in southwest Oregon — from mining and mineral extraction; designate 250 miles of prime Oregon salmon- and steelhead-producing rivers and streams as part of the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System, including: about 120 miles of Rogue River tributaries; a 21-mile stretch of the Molalla River; 18 miles of Jenny Creek, which flows through the Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument; 21 miles of Wasson Creek and Franklin Creek in the Siuslaw National Forest; and several important tributaries of the Elk River; protect an additional 40 miles of Rogue River tributaries from mining and future dam installations; and honor Oregon Couple’s Conservation Legacy with Steelhead Sanctuary The bill also includes legislation introduced by Wyden, Merkley, and Rep. Peter DeFazio honoring Frank and Jeanne Moore, an Oregon couple with a distinguished legacy of conservation and habitat preservation. The Frank and Jeanne Moore Wild Steelhead Special Management Area Designation Act designates nearly 100,000 acres of Forest Service land north of the North Umpqua River as the “Frank and Jeanne Moore Wild Steelhead Special Management Area” and ensures the river, and the surrounding area, will protect steelhead habitat and preserve recreation opportunities for generations to come.

Frank Moore returned to the North Umpqua after serving in the European theatre during World War II and settled there, with Jeanne, guiding generations of fishers on the river.

Reducing the Risk

Adventist Health donates RetinaVue Screening Technology, seeks to reduce diabetes complications Adventist Health Tillamook has taken a new step to reduce the risk of diabetic complications in Tillamook County. The Rinehart Clinic and Tillamook County Community Health Centers each have received a Welch Allyn RetinaVue eye imager that was donated through the medical center’s community benefit program to aid in the early detection of diabetic retinopathy.

Diabetic retinopathy is a disease that damages the blood vessels of the eye’s retina. The National Eye Institute estimates 40 to 45 percent of people with diabetes develop some amount of diabetic retinopathy. Because early stages of the disease often have no symptoms, only about half of sufferers are aware they have the condition. Early detection and treatment reduces the risk of blindness by 95 percent.

With the medical center’s donation, combined with the RetinaVue units already in Adventist Health Tillamook clinics, Tillamook residents have easy access to retinopathy screening in their primary care office.

“It will make such a difference to our patients with diabetes to be able to have their diabetic retinal exams right here at Rinehart Clinic without having to travel to another facility,” says Gail Nelson, Rinehart Clinic CEO. “We are grateful to Adventist Health for providing us with this important technology and look forward to continuing our partnership

focused on improving the health of the Tillamook County community.”

Nearly 12 percent of residents in Tillamook County have been diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. Many more are not yet diagnosed or are at risk of developing the disease, including an increasing number of young people. This means a large number of the county’s residents are at risk of diabetic retinopathy, which can lead to blindness if undiagnosed and untreated.

“Adventist Health’s donation of Retinavue cameras to our clinics allows us to provide even better care to our patients diagnosed with diabetes,” says Marlene Putman, Tillamook County Community Health Centers administrator. “A diabetes diagnosis can be scary. This new tool provides an added sense of security by allowing us to detect eye care needs early and to streamline care coordination between the patient’s primary care provider and their eye doctor.”

Community benefit donations like this are one way that Adventist Health says it lives out its mission of healing and hope.

“Our mission is to live God’s love by inspiring health, wholeness and hope.

What better way to inspire wholeness than to help diabetic patients get early detection of eye disease, which in turn gives them the best chance of preventing blindness?” says David Butler, Adventist Health Tillamook president.
