First responders rescued Portland surfer Sunny Hatch, 22, on Saturday, Feb. 17, who had been separated from his board while surfing off Cape Kiwanda.

The rescue got underway following a 9-1-1 call approximately 4:18 p.m. The caller also reported that a second surfer, identified as Noah Woodside, 26, also from Portland, was going into the water to attempt a rescue.

Shortly after the arrival of first responders, Woodside made it back to shore and reported that he was unable to reach his fellow surfer. At the time of the rescue, surf conditions were heavy and there was strong outgoing tide. A United States Coast Guard helicopter was dispatched to conduct the rescue.

First responders were able to observe Hatch using binoculars. They continued to monitor his location until

he was no longer in view. At about 4:43 p.m., he was located again about a quarter mile south of where he was last observed by rescuers. It’s believed that he had gotten into a south-bound current that allowed him to exit the water.

Exhausted, Hatch was unable to exit the surf line under his own power. He was assisted from the water by Sergeant Greg Plummer of the Oregon State Police and a bystander.

Both surfers were treated and released by paramedics at the scene.

Both were experienced surfers and were wearing full-thickness wetsuits, booties, gloves and hoods.

The Tillamook County Sheriff’s Office was assisted by the Oregon State Police, Nestucca Rural Fire Protection District, an Adventist Health – Tillamook ambulance and the U.S. Coast Guard.

On Our Cover:

THE OREGON DEPARTMENT OF AVIATION is hosting a community meeting on Friday, March 9, 6:30-7:30 p.m., at Kiawanda Community Center in its effort to collect public feedback on the Pacific City State Airport.

ODA to host March 9 public meeting for Pacific City Airport The Oregon Department of Aviation will host a community meeting on Friday, March 9, 6:30-7:30 p.m. at Kiawanda Community Center as part of its continuing effort to receive input from the community on the future of the Pacific City State Airport.

The ODA has previously expressed an interest in selling the airport, which must remain an airstrip because of deed restrictions, to a private individual who would operate the property as a private airport. However, in previous public discussions, many pilots who use the airport have expressed reservations about

the facility not remaining in the public’s hands. To that end, a support organization, Friends of Pacific City State Airport (see related story, page 2) was formed following the last public meeting in January.

As of press time, the agenda for the March 9 meeting has yet to be finalized but ODA expects the meeting to be led by Mitch Swecker, director of ODA; John Wilson, Jr., operations and emergency specialist of ODA; and Matt Maass; state airport manager for ODA. Kiawanda Community Center is located at 34600 Cape Kiwanda Dr., Pacific City.

OREGON DEPT. OF AVIATION director Mitch Swecker is amongst the officials expected to be at a March 9 public meeting addresing Pacific City State Airport.

Master Gardeners pledge pruning help on March 17 The Tillamook County Master Gardeners are sponsoring a one-day Community Pruning Day on March 17 with the goal of providing pruning assistance to those in Tillamook County who are unable to do so themselves due to physical limitations.

There will be no charge for the help which will allow Master Gardeners to use some of the skills they have learned through the Oregon State University Master Gardener’s program to benefit the Tillamook community. The pruning will be done by qualified Master Gardeners, assisted by some of this year’s apprentice

Master Gardeners.

Pruning projects throughout Tillamook County will be considered, but limited to bushes, shrubs and small trees. Larger trees that would require the use of a ladder or power tools to prune will not be eligible for the program.

According to TCMG, the group is dedicated to volunteer service in the community and “give” hundreds of hours per year to improve and support Tillamook County.

Applications for the pruning assistance program are available at the OSU Extension Office, 4506 3rd Street,

ing lot completed, a project funded by a Tillamook County Transient Lodging Tax grant. From July 1-Sept. 10, 2017, the NVCA earned $2,850 from parking fees at the new parking lot — accommodating an estimated 1,000 vehicles that they say would have otherwise added to the summer parking woes at Cape Kiwanda. Revenue from the parking fees have allowed the NVCA to fund additional park improvements.

Other infrastructure improvements at the park this past year included electrical improvements to operate the park gate and provide for future power requirements as well as the installation of a powered gate operator, an improvement that allows programmable opening and closing of the gate.

Remotes allow for emergency access by police and fire personnel. The gate operator — and some of the electrical work — was paid for by a 2017 TPUD grant.

For more information about the NVCA and its plans for a community park at Cape Kiwanda, visit nestucca. org or email the organization at nvcainfo@gmail.com. Those interested in volunteering are also urged to contact the nonprofit.

NVCA touts last year’s accomplishments The Nestucca Valley Community Alliance recapped its past year at its annual meeting held Saturday, Feb. 17. The nonprofit also elected Marie Heimberg as president to fill the vacancy created by the departure of Paul Carlson. Martin Wisehart was moved up from his position as director to vice president.

Accomplishments highlighted during the meeting included the success of the 2017 Nestucca Science Camp, which, in its fifth year, served approximately 55 first- through sixth-grade students. During the summer camp, students used and observed working models of solar, wind and water energy and converted these power sources to electrical and mechanical energy. The students also were treated to a visit to the Whiskey Creek Fish Hatchery, where they learned the importance of water flow in sustaining fisheries, as well as observing Netarts Bay tidal flow and its influence on plant and animal life.

In its efforts to expand recreational offerings, the NVCA made significant headway on its planned community park, including having the property cleared and graded and a gravel park-

Donohue to vie for state representative

P

romising a return to common sense that was practiced by political giants like former Governors Tom McCall, Bob Straub and coastal Rep. Paul Hanneman, Pacific City resident Thomas Donohue has announced his candidacy for House District 10, which incorporates the southern half of Tillamook County, most of Lincoln County and parts of Polk and Yamhill Counties.

Donohue, a republican, cites his belief that democratic leadership and policies have squandered hundreds of millions of dollars at the expense of the state’s working citizenry and businesses as amongst his reasons for vying for the seat.

“The human side of this Democrat Era is tragic,” he says. “Tens of thousands of human babies have been killed at the pagan altar of convenience. At the same time, the ‘Assisted Suicide’ law has allowed our clinically depressed elder citizens to be pressured into taking their own lives with medical assistance.”

He said he also believes that the second amendment — and others — are being eroded.

“I make mistakes like everyone else,” he says. “However, I learn from mine. I try to lead as moral a life as I can. I am not a genius, but one doesn’t have to be an illiterate moron to see that socialism doesn’t work and that is a fact proven over the last 100 years.”

He also asserts that House District 10 is suffering from a fiscal and moral crisis.

“No one has stepped up to the plate to fight for common sense Conservative principles in (House District) 10 this election cycle so in all good conscience I must,” he said. “I will fight for Oregon’s central coastal citizens and what is fiscally and morally right in Oregon’s House of Representatives.”

He said that as state representative he will not introduce or vote for any bill that doesn’t follow six basic conservative principles: limited government, fiscal

Page 8 • Pacific City SUN • March 2, 2018

responsibility, free markets, personal responsibility and choice, local control and social morality.

“As far as limited government is concerned, if the private sector can do a job, then government shouldn’t,” he said.

Another principle Donohue says he stands for is fiscal responsibility.

“We can’t continue to waste citizen’s money,” he said. “We must live within our means. That also means paring down our state agencies and reducing taxes.

“Our public marketplace should be allowed to flourish or fail without undue government regulation and manipulation.”

Donohue also believes that state government should be cognizant of the wishes and needs of local governments and that “one size fits all” dictums from Salem should not exist when local norms are not considered.

He also said it’s important to recognize religious freedom.

“Oregon’s and the United States’ Constitutions recognize the freedom to worship God in any form an individual thinks is appropriate,” he said. “As your State Representative, my moral compass is pointed toward the ‘Golden Rule’ and the ‘Ten Commandments.’ In certain parts of the state, some citizens’ moral compasses are pointed in the wrong direction or just plain missing. We need to change that or our society will perish just like others who lost their morality in the historical past.”

Donohue is a retired technical analyst for the Oregon Lottery, a career he began in 1980. He served in the Oregon’s Army National Guard from 1970-78.

He is the current volunteer Chair of the Tillamook County Republican Central Committee and a Precinct Committee Person. He a director of the Pacific City Dorymen’s Association and chaired its Memorial Wall Committee, creating a 30-ton memorial monument at Cape Kiwanda in 2009.

THE ORETOWN GRANGE was organized in 1904 and the building erected in 1907

by Lars Redberg and other local farmers. It was a vital part of the community for dances, socials, lectures and meetings.

A Day in the Life Historic diary entries paint picture of life as an early 1900s homesteader

By SALLY RISSEL for the Sun

L

ars Redberg and sons were one of the earliest homesteaders in Oretown. Oretown is just south of Pacific City where the Cheese factory and Oretown Grange buildings remain as evidence of the towns existence. Highway 101 used to run in front of these buildings.

Redberg kept a diary, initially meant to be a weather diary, but it included many other clues to life during that time. He kept the diary from January 1909 until his death on Dec. 3, 1948. The original diary was donated to the Tillamook Pioneer Museum.

This is some of the excerpts from 1909.

Jan. 7 - 2 inches of ice covered by 7 inches of snow. Snowed nearly all day; Jan. 10 - 30 degrees in our front room last nite. Went sleigh riding making a visit to J.K. Whiteman; Jan. 11 - Kept a fire till 12 am, but this morning thermometer read 26 degrees in house; Jan. 12 - Thermo. reading in Cloverdale last nite was 4 degrees above zero. The bay is almost entirely covered with ice; Jan. 13 - Bay is covered over entirely and with 1 inch of new snow. Even tho’ terrible rain and wind storms the huge drifts remain; Jan. 29 - Some drifts are 8 feet deep.

March 13 - The snow drift was finally gone.

April 18 - Thermo at 28 degrees; April 20 -Miller Bros. boat off on the beach. We need rain very much. Grass is short. I’m still feeding 15 head of cattle twice a day.

May 23 - 65 people at Sunday School.

June 1 - Went to Ocean Park (later Pacific City) today to help Dan Fletcher bring home a cow he bought.; June 5 - Strong winds blew the schooner “Della” in on the beach. Captain Tabell in command.

Aug.13 - We all went to Cloverdale to show by J. Frank Pickering of BenHur; Aug. 19 - Shocked oat hay for Mr. Fletcher Sept. 14 - A little after 7:pm Charley Ray’s big barn caught fire. Both barns and shed burned to the ground; Sept. 15 - We heard today that George Kellows big barn burned to the ground a few hours before Charlie Ray’s.

Oct. 5 - Mr. Porter and I were at Curre’s place, sawing wood today; Oct. 6 - Ole and I hauled 2 loads of furniture to Cloverdale for Elmer Webb; Oct.30 Mr. Hebo is covered with snow.

Nov.16 - Attended a surprise party at W.W. Christensens. Cold Icy Wind; Nov. 23 - Storms hard-mud slides and bridges have been washed away; Nov. 29 - Mr. Livingston and I hauled cheese to the dock this A.M.. Was a very bad day for it. Could hardly hold the horse on the dock in the storm.

Dec. 5 - We went sleigh riding today. We hauled road planks also. Some snow drifts are still over 2 feed deep; Dec. 10 - Ole and I went to Kreb’s Mill after 2 loads of lumber for the grange hall; Dec. 15 - The snow is all gone. Mr. Livingston, Mr. Mather, Mr. Brigg, Mr. Scherzinger, Mr. Will Penter, Herbert Porter and Ole Rydberg cut wood for the grange.

Chamber marches forward

By VERNE MOBLEY for the Chamber

Happy Days!! March is here. It’s time for more sun than rain! Our Chamber is staying busy doing our normal stuff and new stuff, too! At time of the legislative trip, about 50 of us attended the opening of a day in the House of Representatives where they honored our late great friend Paul Hanneman. Rep David Gomberg did a great job telling of Paul’s life from birth, to moving here, his early working life, his 26 years as our State Representative, to years as Tillamook County Commissioner, to being a wonderful friend and neighbor. We all had lunch at The Ram in Salem with LOTS of visiting. Sandy was a great hostess as she visited table to table. I don’t know if she got to eat!!

The Chamber-sponsored Clover’s Day has already had two meetings at the Dory.

The new theme this year is “Home is Where the Herd Is.” You will be seeing the theme on the new t-shirts and sweatshirts. More later on details next month.

On Feb. 28, 10 Lions presented citizenship awards to 10 deserving students at Nestucca Valley Elementary School. Another fun day!

Our next membership meeting is March 6 at noon at Kiawanda Community Center. Eric Swanson from the Tillamook Hospital will be our speaker to talk about lots of medical items including helicopter plans and more.

There will be a giant candidates’ forum on April 18 at Kiawanda Community Center. We don’t want to miss that. More later.

That next weekend is the great big Birding and Blues event. Chairman Merrianne Hoffman has a bigger and better time planned. Please call her for details.

Call me or any Chamber member about membership. I’m at 971-257-0200.

A Desire to Serve

Mary Faith Bell to vie for open commissioner seat Citing her desire to serve the community as her “purpose in life,” Mary Faith Bell, who currently works as the director of communications and marketing at Tillamook Regional Medical Center, has thrown her hat in the race to replace Tillamook County Commissioner Tim Josi, who is not seeking reelection.

“I am always looking for new opportunities to be of service, both in small ways and in large,” she said in her statement announcing her candidacy.

“It is important to me to know that I am useful, that I am contributing to the lives around me in a positive way. This is why I am attracted to the position of Tillamook County Commissioner. I perceive it as an opportunity to devote myself whole heartedly to being of service to the people of Tillamook County.”

A native Oregonian, the Nehalem resident has worked in a variety of positions including time as a reporter and editor for the Tillamook Headlight Herald. She currently serves as a member of the Civic Advisory Board at the hospital as well as on the Tillamook County Community College Board of Education and the Tillamook Area Chamber of Commerce’s Board of Directors.

An evening of family fun is on tap Sunday, March 4 at Pelican Pub & Brewery when the ocean-front eatery will host a night of Bunco from 5-7 p.m. in an effort to raise funds for the Nestucca Senior SAFE program’s alcohol-free graduation party for 2018 seniors.

Event organizer Kim Henson says the easy learning curve and high fun factor of Bunco makes for an enjoyable time no matter whether you’re an old hand at the game or trying it for the first time.

“It’s a very easy game,” she said. There’s no talent needed. It’s very easy, fast-paced and fun.”

The evening of entertainment, which will cost each player $20 to participate, also features raffle prizes that will range from 12 packs of beer to restaurant gift cards. Raffle tickets are $2 each or three for $5. As well, door prizes will be awarded for the winner of four categories: the most wins, last person holding the Bunco dice, most losses and most Buncos. Space is limited to the Senior SAFE Bunco night. To reserve your space, call Henson at 503-292-4271.
