In the Interest of Safety Dorymen’s Association addresses proposal that would segregate surfing, dories By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun
O
pinions varied widely when the Pacific City Dorymen’s Association considered a petition by doryman Leonard Leis that asks the Oregon Marine Board to create a doryonly lane on the northern part of Cape Kiwanda during their Aug. 23 meeting. In his petition, Leis suggests creating a 600-foot safety zone designated for the sole purpose of launching and landing boats — primarily dories. The suggested northern boundary extends westward from the Oregon State Park’s “Entering Cape Kiwanda State Natural Areas” sign on the south side of the headland. It’s southern boundary would be near the most northerly point of the beach ramp. The southern line between dory operations and other users would be marked by a sector light. Following a lively debate, the Dorymen’s Association voted to send the issue to its safety committee — which is comprised of its board — for further discussion. The Aug. 23 discussion opened up with remarks by Leis, who honed in on testimony from the recent Cole Ortega trial, a surfer injured in 2008 when the dory of Darrell Martin collided with Ortega, severing his arm. The court ultimately said Martin was not liable but Ortega was awarded $3.8 from the State of Oregon, which was cited for
inadequate warnings about the dangers. Leis said that during testimony, he heard surfer after surfer say they were aware of the danger. “They knew they couldn’t see us, but evidently their passion of catching a wave is stronger than their safety,” he said. “It became evident to me that signs are really not going to do it.” He said that with that in mind, the best solution is to separate the two groups — hence his petition to the
“If we close our mind to any idea, than we close our minds to all ideas,” he said. “I think there’s some merit in minimizing the risks (of another accident). .... Let’s work the ideas. This is not a final or end product.” Though Leis said his opinion is that the danger of a surfer-boat incident isn’t lessening, some didn’t agree. “We’ve had one accident since whenever the first boat came out of here,” said Doryman’s Association cochair Craig Wenrick. “I think that most people that fish out here feel like it’s getting better (thanks to the Association’s education effort).” Leis response was that he believed the situation has increased dramatically in the last 10 years. “I think it’s going to get worse year after year,” he said. “I appreciate your effort and understand what you’re trying to do,” said Wenrick. “I think there’s some good stuff (in the petition). I don’t think it’s the time for it.

Area artists to be featured at Garibaldi Museum Garibaldi Maritime Museum, 112 Highway 101 in Garibaldi, will host an artist reception on Saturday, Sept. 6 from 2-4 p.m. Local artists Jan Woodbury, Dana Hulbert, and Breanna Moran will have their artwork featured at the museum during the September Art Show and Sale throughout the month of September. Dana Hulbert teaches kindergarten at Nestucca Valley Elementary School in Cloverdale and has been teaching primary grades for 22 years. She says she has not lost the heart of a child and loves to create in her free time. Hulbert states her artwork is inspired by exploring the beach and hiking in the mountains. She paints on driftwood, does wood burning on driftwood, paints with acrylics, and uses a process called Telamadera Fusion to combine fabric
with paint. Her work has been sold into private collections in Oregon, Washington, California, Arizona, Nevada, and Ohio. The show at the Garibaldi Museum will showcase the largest collection of her work over the past three years. Jan Woodbury, who also teaches kindergarten at NVES and has taught primary grades for 40 years, started knitting in 4-H when she was in the third grade. She says her teacher taught her life lessons along with knitting, such as “getting frustrated doesn’t help,” “quitting doesn’t get the job done,” and the importance of correcting a mistake and moving on. Woodbury knits purses primarily with wool yarn, though she does add non-wool yarns for texture and then felts them. Her purses are embellished
with touches of nature, for example, a small rock, piece of antler, or shell might be integrated into a purse. She says her favorite pieces remind her of layers seen in soil or striations found in sedimentary rocks. Breanna Moran is the art teacher at Tillamook High School. She sculpts and paints with acrylics. A recent project was painting a mural at Latimer Quilt & Textile Center and at Kilchis Point. She frequently does commission paintings. She will feature a collection of her bird paintings at the Garibaldi Museum show. The public is invited to meet the artists and enjoy light refreshments at the artist’s reception.

Closing Up Shop It’s the last call for customers of Village Merchants as iconic store to close its doors for last time this autumn By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun Of all the adjectives that come to mind when thinking about the service the ladies of Village Merchants have provided over the years, friendly, fun and unique are at the top of the list. And those are attributes that will be sorely missed when the retail shop closes up for good this fall. Currently run by a partnership of Genie Ulrich, Christine Fleming and Karen Smith, the Village Merchants owes its beginnings to Stan and Gail Beppu, who started what has blossomed into a full-fledged retail outlet as a hobby. The same goes for Genie Ulrich,who together with her husband Frank, bought the name and branding shortly after moving to Neskowin in 1996. Fleming and Smith joined the Village Merchants in 2003. Evidence of just how valued the eclectic store is was never more evident than on Saturday, Aug. 30. On the strength of a Photo by Tim Hirsch postcard and email marketing VILLAGE MERCHANTS, located at 34950 Brooten Road in Pacific City, will effort, faithful customers flocked be closing its doors for good this fall.

On the Road to Progress
Neskowin split on preference of new emergency access only road, paved one-lane, full-access route By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun

ommunity members weighed the plusses and minuses of four options for a new access road to the village of Neskowin during an Aug. 31 meeting of the Neskowin Citizens Advisory Committee. Held at the conclusion of the Neskowin Community Association’s Labor Day weekend meeting, CAC members were given a choice to chime in on their preferred options for a road that will either be an emergency access only route or serve the community as a regular route — albeit at different levels. The four discussed options were: 1) a graveled roadway with turnouts and gates at the ends to be opened only in emergencies; 2) a one-lane graveled road with turnouts open year round for public access; 3) a one-lane paved road with turnouts open year round for public access; and 4) a two-lane, full-use road open to unrestricted year-round travel. Prior to the start of the CAC meeting, the NCA board announced that they voted to support option 1 and pledged a $25,000 match to the Tillamook County requested $50,000 community contribution toward the estimated $446,804 price tag. “Safety is the priority of the (association),” said Robin Crowell, president of NCA. “It is in the community’s best interest to get it done immediately.” “To have a $25,000 match (from NCA) is huge,” said Guy Sievert, chair of the Neskowin CAC at the onset of that meeting. “From my own personal perspective, it ensures we’re going to get something done.” Sievert said that because the Hawk Creek Bridge is threatened with storm surges, an emergency access could prove invaluable should that bridge become impassable.
Much of the CAC debate centered around two issues — timing and cost. While Tillamook County estimates an emergency access road could be done in as little as one year, the more involved routes open to year-round traffic could take two years or more. Prior to the vote, which resulted in a close race between an emergency access road and the most popular option, a one-lane paved road with turnouts, the community debated the merits of each option. The final vote tally was 64 for option 1 (emergency access), 4 for option 2 (one-lane graveled road), 78 for option 3 (one lane paved road) and 5 for option 4 (two-lane road). Speaking in favor of “at least” a one-lane paved road, Jeff Walton, whose family deeded the property for the road to the county, urged community members not to waste their chance for a usable second access to the village. In addition, he said that he talked with Tillamook County Commissioner Mark Labhart who told Walton that he would go to bat for Neskowin getting a full-use road. “We’ve got a shot,” said Walton. “We’ve got to send a signal to the county. What have we got to lose folks? Nothing.” Amongst the other comments was a challenge to the NCA board. The hope was that if the community were to seek the one-lane paved option, the group would still offer a $25,000 match. Still, others said that the community should take what they could get. One resident went so far as to say that it naive to think the county would come up with the extra money required for a paved road. And the difference is great. Tillamook County is estimating that a one-lane paved road with pull-outs would cost $671,922 and a two-lane road $1.3 million.

Battling the Breakers Longboard Classic to bring surfers of all ages to Pacific City for Sept. 19-21 contest By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun
M
ore than 150 accomplished surfers will be ripping through the waves off of Pacific City when the annual Cape Kiwanda Longboard Classic returns for its 16th goaround, Sept. 19-21. As a fundraiser for a planned skate park, which will be constructed just east of the Cape, event organizer and Moment Surf Shop owner Jeff Mollencop says he hopes to raise about $15,000 for the effort. The contest operates under the nonprofit status of the Nestucca Valley Community Alliance, which holds a $10 per year longtime lease with Tillamook Light Wave for the upcoming 2.4 acre community park. “Right now, it’s the only one that’s happening in Oregon as far as longboard contests go,” said Mollencop about the competition. “It draws people from all over the state, down to California and into Canada. There’s always lots of new faces, lots of familiar faces.” He added that the variety of surf conditions present at Cape Kiwanda make it an ideal spot for the competition. “It holds a wide variety of swells,” Mollencop said about surfing conditions at the Cape. “It gives us a lot of flexibility — depending on what the surf does. It’s just a user-friendly and diverse beach for surfing.” He said that the Cape itself was another important feature for surfers — especially when surf is big. “We’ll work with the Dorymen’s Association to make it safe and use that area — if we need to,” he said. Contest festivities begin with a registration party on Friday, Sept. 19, under the event tent. From 6-10 p.m., walk-up registration will be available as well as live music by Portland “shoegaze” soul music artists DoveDriver. A beer garden will also be on tap, as well as a dinner of Teriyaki beef available for purchase from Malia’s Grill, of Manzanita. Mollencop hopes the beer garden — on the strength of donated beer by Pelican Brewery and Pacifico — will provide a big boost to funds raised for the skate park. Competition will follow suit the next morning with heats beginning at 8 a.m. on Saturday, Sept. 20 and running until 5 p.m. Surfers will take to the

waves again on Sunday, also at 8 a.m. Though subject to change if weather conditions necessitate a change in the schedule, the awards ceremony is set to commence at 3 p.m. on Sunday. The beer garden will also be open on Saturday, 11 a.m.-10 p.m., with the instrumental surf sounds of Apollo Four starting at 7 p.m. Also on Saturday’s slate is a vendor display from 11 a.m.-6 p.m. and silent auction from 11 a.m.-10 p.m. The auction boasts a variety of donated merchandise from local vendors, restaurants and hotels, as well as manufacturer-donated surfboards.

chance to score some new gear will be two raffles — for $1 each the public will gain a chance to win items such as t-shirts, hats, traction pads and leashes; and for $5 they earn a shot to win their choice of a Rob Russo surfboard or Patagonia wetsuit. Malia’s Grill will also serve a lunch of Teriyaki chicken, from 11 a.m.-4 p.m. and a pulled pork dinner, from 5-10 p.m. It all adds up to an event that will be crucial towards funding the skate park, for which Mollencop is grateful. “We’ve had tremendous community support and thank all the volunteers and everybody helping out,” he said. Donations are still being accepted for the silent auction. Call Mollencop at 503-483-1025 to arrange for your donation.

NEWS&COMMUNITY A reminder to boat safe The U.S. Coast Guard reminds boaters to make smart decisions while operating in the Pacific Northwest following the rescue of eight people from an overloaded vessel that capsized near Bainbridge Island over the Labor Day weekend. “Between the overloading of the vessel, the lack of lifejackets and a water temperature of less than 60 degrees, they are lucky to be alive,” said Daniel Shipman, director of boating safety for the Coast Guard 13th District. “It doesn’t matter how strong a swimmer you are; the shock of cold water immersion can instantly impair your motor function. A lifejacket may be the only thing keeping you afloat.” A Coast Guard Station Seattle 45foot Response Boat — Medium crew and a good Samaritan rescued seven adults, one child and a dog after their 12-foot skiff capsized in Eagle Harbor, on Aug. 30. The good Samaritan was able to recover three of the people in the water. The other five people clung to the side of his vessel. Reportedly, only the child was wearing a lifejacket and all eight people were in the water for at least 20 minutes prior to discovery by the good Samaritan. All the passengers were treated by EMS for mild hypothermia.

A Suspenseful Act Skydivers sail into Pacific City during Skydive Toledo’s Pacific City Beach Boogie, Sept. 19-21 By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun
S
cores of skydivers will offer a bit of parachute-fueled resistance to the effects of gravity when they take to the skies above Cape Kiwanda, Sept. 19-21, for the Pacific City Beach Boogie. The annual event, which owes its impetus to the birthday celebration of local homeowner and skydiver Sunni Liston, has become a favorite for skydivers as well as a popular attraction for residents and tourists who revel in seeing 50-150 skydivers float down to the sandy beaches of Pacific City. Skydive! Toledo, which specializes in skydive instruction for tandem, static line and accelerated free-fall parachute jumps, is organizing the parachuting parade. “It’s definitely a beautiful area; it’s a beautiful town,” said Dawn Fowler, manager of Skydive! Toledo. “We’ve always been treated very well. The restaurants are great. The beaches are beautiful. Very rarely do skydivers get to jump over the ocean and land on the beach.” Action will begin at approximately noon on Friday, Sept. 19 and continue until dark on Friday and Saturday. The event will wrap-up by midafternoon on Sunday, Sept. 21. Skydive! Toledo is bringing three aircraft to service the jumpers — a Cessna 182, a Turbine 207 and a helicopter. Many skydivers will land on the beach directly west of the Pacific City Airport and Pacific Avenue and others will drop in on the surfing action at Cape Kiwanda where the Cape Kiwanda Longboard Classic will unwind during that same weekend. “People come from all over (to skydive in Pacific City),” said Fowler. “Last year, we had skydivers come from as far away as Australia.” The boogie is also a chance for those interested in the sport to get their feet wet. Skydive! Toledo is offering tandem jumps for $250. Those interested can either reserve a time in advance by calling 360-864-2230 or simply drop by the event headquarters located at Pacific City Airport. Located halfway between Vancouver, Wash. and Olympia just off I-5, Skydive! Toledo is the oldest continuously operating parachute center in the Pacific Northwest and has served skydivers for 42 years. For more information, visit www.skydivetoledo.com or call 360-864-2230.

COLORFUL PARACHUTES will dot the sky above Cape Kiwanda Sept. 19-21 during Skydive !Toledo’s Pacific City Beach Boogie. The annual Boogie has become a favorite for skydivers, who come from as far away as Australia.

In 1963, when he was 13, he watched a Wild World of Sports surfing contest on television and decided to be a surfer. The only person he knew who owned a board was cousin Ray Hagstrom, whose father owned The Hungry Harbor, a local restaurant. Kellow would hike over the dune in Woods and walk all the way to the beach at Cape Kiwanda. Hagstrom would let him Photo courtesy of Scott Blackman use his surf board in exchange for washing ABOVE, Pacific City surfer Glenn Kellow poses during a surfsome dishes at the restaurant.
