news&community Planning Commission to consider revisions to Pacific City-Woods Communty Plan

By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun

R

esidents will have a chance to give their input on proposed changes to the Pacific CityWoods Community Plan when the Tillamook County Planning Commission discusses the matter on April 12, 7 p.m., at Kiawanda Community Center, 34600 Cape Kiwanda Dr., Pacific City.

The proposed revisions carry with them some recommended changes to permitted uses and development requirements — most notably in the high density (R3) zones.

In the proposed changes, one- to eight-family dwellings — including townhouses, rowhouses, apartments and condominiums — would be a use permitted outright. Currently, uses permitted outright are limited to a four-family dwelling in R3 zoned property. As well, the proposed changes remove the requirement for an additional 2,000 square feet of lot area for each additional family unit on a minimum sized lot — which is 5,000 square feet — in R3 zones. Structures exceeding eight units will need to get a conditional use permit.

Noting that some nearby cities within the county do not have the 2,000 square foot requirement, Tillamook County Community Development director Sarah Absher says that the main goal of the relaxed standards is to allow for more flexibility in development.

She described the removal of the 2,000 square foot requirement as a potential “conversation changer.”

Still, she said there are no guarantees.

“Now, with that additional land requirement off the table, it does give some property owners flexibility (to possibly develop multi-family housing.) Still, they have to meet standards such as parking, fire, life and safety and setbacks,” Absher said.

The proposed R3 setback changes, which in an earlier version applied to both single- and multifamily homes, would eliminate the requirement for 15-foot front setbacks and 20-foot rear setbacks and instead require a front and rear combination setback of 30 feet with neither the front or rear setback being less than 10 feet.

“There was initial discussion by the Community Plan Review Committee to modify setback standards for any structure in the PCW-R3 zone,” Absher told the Sun. “After further discussion and consideration, it was decided that the proposed modification to allow for more flexibility in setback standards should only apply to multifamily dwellings and not any structure sited in the PCW-R3 zone, due to the fact that a larger building footprint is typically needed for multi-family dwelling structures. The intent behind this proposed change is to try to balance open space in residential areas where possible since single-family dwelling footprints do not typically need as large of a building footprint as multi-family dwellings.”

Following the hearing, Planning Commissioners are expected to forward their recommendation to Tillamook County Commissioners, who have scheduled two public hearings — on May 2 and 9. Both hearings will be held at 2 p.m. at the Tillamook County Courthouse. According to Absher, the meetings have been scheduled so that a second Planning Commission meeting can be held prior to the Board of Commissioner hearings if necessary. The one caveat, she said, is that due to a busy docket, any additional Planning Commission meeting would likely be held in Tillamook.

PCJWSA to update community at April 3 meeting The Pacific City Joint Water-Sanitary Authority will hold a community meeting to share updates on the Authority’s Waste Water Treatment Plant upgrade and other current events of PCJWSA on Tuesday, April 3 at Kiawanda Community Center’s Great Hall, 34600 Cape Kiwanda Dr., Pacific City. The community meeting will immediately follow PCJWSA’s Board of Directors meeting, which starts at 5 p.m.

Agenda items of the community

meeting include community engagement, a brief history of recent projects, an update of its completed bond refinance, and information on the construction of its updated Wastewater Treatment Plant. As well, there will be time for community questions and comments.

Anyone requiring special accommodations should contact the Authority office, 503-965-6636, at least 48 hours prior to the meeting.

Pacific Sand Heights seeks separation from NRSA By a vote of 3-0, Tillamook County Commissioners approved an order on March 28 that will move forward a petition by the Pacific Sand Heights Subdivision to withdraw from the Neskowin Regional Sanitary Authority.

In public testimony supporting the removal of Pacific Sand Heights lots from NRSA, resident Gary Dunn said though residents there believe in paying their fair share of taxes, they also believe that, at some point, they should see some benefits.

“Our community has never been provided services by the Regional Page 2 • Pacific City SUN • March 30, 2018

(Sanitary) Authority nor approached by any plan on when, where or how we’re going to get those services,” he said. “I’ve gone to the board members and asked (about an eventual inclusion in NRSA’s sewer system and they responded, ‘It’s all in that grand plan.’”

“Grand plans are great, but you need to see goals somewhere,” Dunn said. “You need to have plans to back those goals.”

The board will hold one more public hearing before giving final permission for the withdrawal to give time for a potential petition, which could forward the issue to voters.

Allen discusses possible next steps following court victory in Territorial Sea Plan appeal

By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun

T

he judges have spoken so now what? As reported in the March 16 edition of the Sun, on March 9 the Oregon Court of Appeals ruled in favor of an appeal brought forth by co-petitioners David Yamamoto of Pacific City and Charles Ciecko of Neskowin that asserted that the Oregon Land Conservation and Development Commission overstepped their authority when they adopted amendments to Part 5 of Oregon’s Territorial Sea Plan in October 2013.

At the core of the decision was the fact that LCDC adopted the Department of Land Conservation and Development’s less restrictive staff report rather than the recommendations of the Oregon’s Ocean Policy Advisory Council, an advisory body to the governor’s office, state agencies and DLCD. With the rule now invalidated, David Allen, who served as Yamamoto and Ciecko’s attorney on the case and was also co-chair of OPAC at the time of the adoption by DLCD, shared his view on possible steps forward to Tillamook County Commissioners on March 28. Also offering his own views was Scot McMullen, who chaired OPAC at the time of the group’s lengthy work and eventual recommendation on the matter.

Allen noted that the ball is now in DLCD and LCDC hands, but suggested that the original recommendations could be adopted.

“We believe the OPAC recommendations could be adopted at this time with maybe some minor adjustments,” Allen said. “That would be our position.

In doing so, you would have a new plan in place. You’d have the appropriate protections in place in state waters, and, in doing so, if you needed to revise if further down the line, you could have those revisions undertaken.

“With all the work that OPAC put into this — five years plus of the mapping and the documentation — there is a body of work right now that is sitting in front of the commission if they should chose to adopt it, “Allen added.

“It’s still valuable information now as it was five years ago. And if it needs to be revisited than send back some portion to OPAC for further review. I think that is the way to move forward.”

And McMullen concurred.

“LCDC has already make the find-

being no plan in place.”

Allen also explained to Tillamook County Commissioners the key points in the case — particularly focusing on OPAC’s role in the effort. “(LCDC), I believe, in 2013, felt that even though the OPAC recommendation was important, they (could) make adjustments to it after the fact — meaning they could change it last minute even though OPAC went through an extensive process to reach that recommendation.

“If they wanted to adjust the OPAC recommendation, they needed to make the required findings and send it back to OPAC so that OPAC could do that further revision and then have OPAC send it back to the commission for final review and adoption,” he said. “So, the commission believed they could bypass that final step and just make the revisions without sending it back down to OPAC. We disagreed and the court agreed with our decision.

“We believe the land conservation development commission did not follow the letter of the law. They bypassed the appropriate procedures that were in place and in doing so they really disregarded what the legislature intended when they put that statute in place. I’m happy with the result, and I’m looking forward to seeing how this all plays out in the months ahead.”

One option that is still on the table for DLCD is to appeal the Court of Appeals decision. DLCD has 35 days from the date of decision to file an appeal, but because Allen has filed a motion on some side issues, which has put a hold on the start of the 35-day period.

Still, Allen said he remains confident in the opinion by the Court of Appeals.

“You can always ask the Supreme Court to review something because you don’t believe it came out the way you wanted it to, but this is a really well thought out, well analyzed opinion by the judge and the panel that issued it,” Allen said. “Even if the agency does petition for (a supreme court) review — and I say if because I don’t know if they will or not — I think they’re going to have a very difficult time not only getting the supreme court to accept the review but to actually have the supreme court reverse (the decision).

“I’m not just saying it because we’re on the winning side. This is a very strong opinion that’s going to be very difficult to challenge.”

ings to say that (the OPAC recommendation) does comply with the policies of ORS statute and that it’s compatible with statewide planning goal 19,” he said. “From my perspective, (adopting the OPAC recommendation is) the best option in terms of more efficiency for the state. If there’s some part of the (amendments) that need work they could specify very narrowly (what) needs work, but they could also let it go to see if there’s a challenge to that issue later on.”

Commissioner Tim Josi, who at the time of the adoption was the lone member of LCDC that voted against adopting the DLCD staff report instead of the OPAC recommendations, said he did have one concern moving forward — the response of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Prior to the adoption of the Part 5 amendments, FERC, which has jurisdiction right up to the shoreline, had a memorandum of understanding with the State of Oregon that essentially said that if the state adopts a plan acceptable to FERC, they would agree to let Oregon regulate its own territorial sea, which spans from the shoreline out to three nautical miles. Josi said his concern is that Oregon could lose control if FERC does not sign off on any new plan that LCDC eventually adopts.

In his response to Josi’s concerns, Allen noted that the Territorial Sea Plan’s original Part 5, adopted in 2009, is still in place.

“Those protections are still in place,” added McMullen concerning the original Part 5. “There’s still rules and procedures that involve anything being put into the ocean. It doesn’t negate the responsibility of the developer to work with the State of Oregon.”

Allen said that when it comes to issues of development the issue is bigger than just FERC. “It’s not just FERC, it’s NOAA,” he said. “It was adopted in 2015 by NOAA so it’s now part of the Coastal Management Plan Program which means federal agencies have to comply with (it) when (they) do work in state waters.

Now that it’s been invalidated, there is that opening in which FERC does conceivably have jurisdiction but given what’s occurred in state water — the lack of any interest by wave energy developers over the last five years — I’m not sure that there’s a big gold rush as far as companies wanting to just jump in there and take advantage of there

Have you ever wondered what happens to a raindrop on its incredible journey through the water cycle? How tough is life for a salmon and what in the world do they eat? Are beavers really just engineers in disguise? On Tuesday, March 20, more than 300 enthusiastic fourth graders from throughout Tillamook County found out the answers to these question and many more at the 17th annual Children’s Clean Water Festival.

Hosted by the Tillamook Estuaries Partnership at Twin Rocks Friend Camp, this day of experiential education was made possible through the efforts of 100 adult volunteers, high school students, teachers, chaperones, TEP staff, and many local natural resource agencies.

Generous contributions by the Environmental Protection Agency and the Kiwanis Club of Tillamook helped fund this year’s event.

Science and art were mixed together to produce a series of hands-on activi-

ties related to clean water and healthy ecosystems. This day of discovery ran the gamut from getting up close and personal with aquatic insects and baby oysters to creating fish murals and critter art using recycled bottle caps. Other learning adventures included responsible camping skits, recycle relays with plastic bottles and aluminum cans, salmon and tide pool animal observations, and sing-alongs about watersheds.

STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math) was the theme of the day with participants donning life jackets while learning about water safety, testing water quality, taking the erosion “Runoff Challenge”, marveling at the Great Pacific Garbage patch, understanding how sneaky waves can be, demonstrating the importance of plants in local ecosystems, and discovering nearby wonders such as Kilchis Point and Cape Falcon Marine Reserve. The Festival once again demonstrated that learning science is fun for all involved.

Registration opens April 3 for TEP’s Bounty on the Bay Registration opens April 3 for Tillamook Estuaries Partnership’s 15th annual Bounty on the Bay, which returns June 8-9 with two days of fishing-related activities.

This year’s event will include an Italian dinner, fishing seminar, fishing tournament, seafood feast, silent auction and awards ceremony.

Registration forms are available at tbnep.org or, to obtain more informa-

tion regarding the event, contact Valerie Stephan-LeBoeuf at 503-322-2222 or bounty@tbnep.org.

All proceeds go to the conservation and restoration of Tillamook County’s estuaries and watersheds. Tillamook Estuaries Partnership is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization dedicated to the conservation and restoration of Tillamook County’s estuaries and watersheds in their entirety.

TAPA’s Summer Theater Camp accepting applications Tillamook Association for the Performing Arts will be holding their annual summer theater camp for students ages 11-14, the week of June 18, with performances on June 22 & 23. There are spots for 13 students and registration forms are due April 1.

FRIENDS OF THE PACIFIC CITY STATE AIRPORT met on March 19 to discuss strategy to support the state0owned airport. The group is working towards developing a plan to work wth the state and form a private/public partnership to address funding, maintenance, and safety concerns.

Airport group pledges support for maintaining airport, keeping management in state’s hands The newly organized “Friends of Pacific City State Airport” met on March 19 to develop a strategy to support the State owned airport. The Oregon Department of Aviation has been concerned about the safety and liability of the airport and was considering selling the Pacific City airport to a private owner.

Oregon Department of Aviation Director Mitch Swecker and two staff participated in the meeting in order to listen to the concerns and ideas of airport stakeholders. He assured the gathering of more than 25 pilots and community members that the state will not move forward with the sale until all options are explored.

The “Friends” group is organizing to develop a plan to work with the state and form a private/public partnership to address their concerns of funding, maintenance and safety.

The avaition gas/jet fuel tax grant program is providing funds this year to make some of the needed improvements. Cleaning drainage canals, repairing the flood gate at the south end of the airstrip and cutting trees and brush that infringe on the airport are some of the projects for 2018. Fund raising ideas to rebuild the toilet facility and other improvements are being considered. The “Friends” group also

pledged to assist the state in any way they can.

The group participated in addressing the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats to the airport. The group recognized the importance of the airport as a community asset. The SWOT Analysis will be very helpful for moving forward in the development of the airport advocacy and volunteer organization.

A logo, website and Facebook page have been developed so anyone can be updated on the organizations progress.

Rep. David Gomberg attended the meeting and offered both his support for the airport remaining state-owned and his suggestions to the group as they convey their ideas and commitment to the ODA Board and government leaders. A list of government and elected officials was provided so the attendees could contact these people with their concerns and suggestions. Those that would like to become involved can contact Sally Rissel at heronlanding123@ gmail or Robyn Holdman at friendsofpacificcityairport@gmail.com.

Spring Candidates’ Forum Wednesday, April 18, 7pm

As part of National Library Week April 9 -13, the Tillamook Bay Community College Library will host a panel of guests to share how to get out and enjoy hikes in Tillamook and Clatsop State Forests. The program, scheduled for Wednesday, April 11 at 6 p.m. in the TBCC Library, will feature Greg Jacob, a member of the Oregon Chapter of the Sierra Club and contributor to the newest edition of “50 Hikes in the Tillamook and Clatsop State Forests.”

Also joining the conversation is T.J. Carter from Ooligan Press, publisher of the book, and professional forester Dave Wells. Wells will be sharing his experience working among the unique trees in the region.

He will also be teaching a three-week continuing education class at TBCC this spring on the “Trees of Tillamook.”

As a way to encourage student involvement in the program, the library is offering students the opportunity to check out a backpack filled with hiking accessories, like binoculars, first aid kits, and compasses, as well as books and identification guides for local plants and animals.

“The idea behind both the backpack program and this presentation is that we want to encourage the community to get outside to enjoy our resources and have the opportunity to take some knowledge

with them when they do,” says library assistant Lisa Taylor.

Other community activities during National Library week include Open Game Night Friday, April 13, 4-7 p.m. The community is invited to play with table top games of varying interests and levels, including Munchkin Legends, Sushi Go Party, Boss Monster, and Dominion. There will also be classic games like Yahtzee, Life, and Uno. Game Night is open to all ages, but anyone under 18 must be accompanied by an adult, unless they are a current TBCC student. Light snacks will be provided and there will be giveaways throughout the event. The TBCC Library has created a game library through donations by game designers and publishers, and now has more than 40 games available for check-out by TBCC students and staff.

“Having the game library provides an opportunity for students to connect with each other, or take a break when they need it, as well as to take games home to share with their family” says library director Masyn Phoenix.

Those with questions about either event can contact the TBCC library by phone at 503-842-8222, ext. 1720 or by email at lisataylor@tillamookbaycc.edu.

Speakers to address ‘Intergenerational Friendships’ during April 14 discussion at Pioneer Museum Aging is a life-long experience that is different for everyone — and those experiences will be discussed during “Just a Number: Aging and Intergenerational Friendship,” a presentation led by Jennifer Sasser and Simeon Dreyfuss on April 14 at Tillamook County Pioneer Museum.

The free program, which is sponsored

by Oregon Humanities and the Pioneer Museum’s Daisy Fund, starts at 1 p.m. and is open to all ages.

While many agree that people of different generations have wisdom to offer those who are ahead of or behind them in life’s journey, barriers to connection often persist between generations. Event organizers says that many of these barriers are rooted in our ideas about age and aging.

Amongst the questions the program will focus on are: How do we acknowledge both the universality of aging and the differences we experience? How do we create meaningful connections with others of different ages and life stages?

TCPM encourages young people to come and give their opinions on the topic and to perhaps make new friendships.

Dreyfuss is a writer and independent interdisciplinary scholar. He was on the

faculty of Marylhurst University for 23 years and now is an adjunct professor at Tillamook Bay Community College. His essays, stories, poems, scholarly articles, and journalistic publications have appeared widely. He is currently coeditor of “Issues in Interdisciplinary Studies.”

Sasser is an educational gerontologist, transdisciplinary scholar, and community activist. She has worked in the field of gerontology for more than half her life, beginning as a nursing assistant and aging advocate before focusing on research, writing, and teaching. She is the author of “Aging: Concepts and Controversies” and is planning a forthcoming book titled “Gerontology: The Basics.”

Oregon Humanities is an independent, nonprofit affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities and a partner of the Oregon Cultural Trust. Through the Conversation Project, the organization offers free programs that engage community members in challenging conversations about what it describes as ideas critical to the daily lives of Oregonians and the state’s future. For more information about the discussion, contact the Tillamook County Pioneer Museum at 503-842-4553.

Pie Night raises funds for local nonprofits THE 4TH ANNUAL SOUTH COUNTY PIE NIGHT, held Saturday, March 24 at Kiawanda Community Center in Pacific City, brought in approximately $12,500 in gross receipts as it welcomed about 150 pie lovers to the popular event. The event supports four local nonprofits — South County Food Bank, Foodroots, Pacific City Farmers Market and Neskowin Farmers Market. The exact amount that will go to charities — after expenses — was not known at press time as final figures were still being tallied. The 30 pies in the auction, which were made by local bakers and community businesses, sold for a total of $5,155 with winning pie bids averaging more than $170 per pie. Winning bids ranged from a low of $60 to a high of $400.

After the auction, attendees were treated to an all-you-can-eat pie and and ice cream feast. Donna Jose (at right) played piano for a musical background which added to the festive feel of the evening.

Birding & Blues Festival

Pelican Brewing welcomes new chef

Pelican takes beach and beer cuisine to next level with inventiveness of Dan Micolino who trained with celebrity chef Brian Malarkey

Pelican Brewing Company beer cuisine — already rooted in the fresh produce and seafood indigenous to the Oregon Coast—welcomes the inventiveness of another beach-born culinary phenom, Dan Micolino.

Micolino joins Team Pelican as its new research and development chef where he leads the design and refresh of Pelican menus, Brewers’ Dinners and special events. He brings a contemporary perspective on how Pelican’s awardwinning beer is both incorporated into its dishes and paired with meals.

Micolino, who trained with celebrity chef Brian Malarkey at the renowned Burlap (now Searsucker Del Mar) and Herringbone restaurants in San Diego, offers a deep passion for bringing the same focus on flavor, aroma, texture and experience that the brewery brings to every beer it crafts. Micolino boasts an extensive resume in the food industry including leadership roles at the famed Barbarella’s in La Jolla, Amaya at the Grand Del Mar, which earned a 5-star Forbes rating under Micolino, and most recently at Yosemite Valley Lodge.

Micolino, who grew up with a chef father and a mom who worked in restaurants much of his childhood, holds a BS in economics from the University of California San Diego as well as a Culinary Arts degree from the San Diego Culinary Institute.

“Dan has a great palate — his use of ingredients, his reverence and care for fresh local produce are really creating some dynamic and unique flavors across the menu,” says Ken Henson, co-owner and director of restaurant operations at Pelican Brewing Company. “Dan knows how to seamlessly translate his elegantlyhoned fine dining techniques to Pelican’s more laid-back, casual beach dining experience without losing its brilliance.”

Pelican enjoys a solid history of soldout Brewers’ Dinners and a reputation for some of the most creative beer cuisine available. The brewery looks to Micolino to amplify that reputation and bring out the best from its kitchens and how its extraordinary beers work with its specialties.

Just some of the spring specials Micolino has created for Pelican brewpubs include: Spicy Tsunami Stout Oysters, Pacific Northwest Cured Salmon Flatbread,

Shrimp and Dungeness Crab Escabeche, and Beer-brined and House-Smoked Pelican ‘Beakburner’ Chicken Wings.

Micolino also created the theme for the Pelican’s 2018 Brewers’ Dinners — Past, Present and Future. He was inspired to tell the story of Oregon’s rich culinary history and relationship to the land and bounty of the sea. With sights set on ecofriendly and sustainable fresh foods, for the January dinner Micolino considered the past: what were the practices of our forefathers, who lived off the land? What did they eat, and why? And how was it prepared?

Next up, Micolino will create the dishes and pairings for the Spring and Fall Pelican Brewers’ Dinners which focus on sustainable, eco-friendly Oregon Coast cuisine presently and in the future.

The Present Brewers’ Dinner takes place at the Pacific City brewpub on April 21, 6:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. and will celebrate the current local foods, produce and suppliers we love here and now. How did our current brewpub fare evolve from yesteryear? What’s all the rage at Pelican brewpubs? What beers is Pelican pouring with its fare? Any seasonal beers to taste? The six-course dinner will feature thoughtful beer pairings for each item.

The Future Brewers’ Dinner on Saturday, Oct. 20 features an exploration of future food trends — what will be central to our diets as we navigate sustainability and local production? How will culinary science and technology shape what is on our plates? And how might we pair beers with such future fare?

“I’m a beach kid at heart and I couldn’t wait to get back to my roots on the west coast — Pelican offers the perfect fit. Today on the Oregon Coast we are so lucky to be able to source great quality, eco-friendly seafood and locally-harvested fresh produce — and Pelican has access to all of it,” says Micolino. “Working in this incomparable culture has inspired me to consider new and unique creations—and just in time for some fresh Spring surprises that pair beautifully with the perfect Pelican beers.”

Spotlight Making a Case for Expansion

Getting Set for Spring

By VERNE MOBLEY for the Chamber

Well, our calendar says its spring. But I don’t know! Snow fell today and Pat and I saw lots of it last week when we visited our ranch near Shaniko. It reminded us of why we moved to this beautiful part of the world!!

We got home just in time for another Clover’s Day meeting. Some of the jobs are done, but lots to go before the big day, July 7th. We hope everyone “marks the date” as we say these days.

Our Lions Club presented citizenship awards to deserving students at Nestucca Valley Elementary School again last week. This is a monthly thing we always enjoy. Like our slogan says, “It’s great to be a Lion.”

Coming up soon — on April 18th — is our big Candidates’ forum. Doug Olson is chairing this event at our Kiawanda Community Center. All six candidates running for Tillamook County Commissioner have confirmed their intent on being there in their effort to help their chance for winning. Start time is 7 p.m.

Don’t forget the following weekend is our big “Birding and Blues” event. See or call Merrianne Hoffman for times each day.

Our next Chamber meeting/lunch is coming real soon — April 3rd at Kiawanda Community Center.

Nestucca Valley School District superintendent Misty Wharton will be our speaker. She will tell us about the school bond, which we will vote on in May. Misty has an excellent presentation. We Lions heard her at our last meeting. It’s great to be a Lion, and a Chamber member. Talk to me about both at 971-257-0200.

Visit Tillamook Coast is launching the North Coast Food Trail at Coastally Crafted, a beer and cheese event held April 14 at Pelican Brewing in Tillamook. Pelican Brewing and Tillamook Creamery are joining Visit Tillamook Coast to kick off the food trail, the first of its kind in the state. More than 60 businesses, ranging from agricultural to retail to restaurants, make up the trail, which showcases the abundance of Oregon’s North Coast.

The theme of “Food, Farm, Fish and Forage” encompasses the region’s diverse range of agriculture and recreational opportunities. The trail features 60 farms, farmers’ markets, breweries, wineries, distilleries, restaurants, cooking schools, guided tours and experiences, lodging and retail stores. Participants will be denoted on a map, to be handed out at the event and available at participating businesses and online, as well as on the North Coast Food Trail website and through signage.

The North Coast Food trail celebrates the current renaissance in food and agriculture businesses on Oregon’s North Coast. The area has welcomed a new generation of farmers, fishers, producers, harvesters, chefs and guide services who are drawn to the bountiful and beautiful natural environment.

“This is the first food trail in Oregon covering multiple types of products and services connected to food,” said Nan Devlin, tourism director of Visit Tillamook Coast. “We’re eager to spread the word regionally

and nationally that this is a great addition to Oregon’s reputation for food and exploration.

“Often, those of us in the Northwest return to the same places on the coast over and over again, without knowing what else is just a short drive away,” she added. “We hope the North Coast Food Trail will help visitors find new restaurants to try, adventures to go on, and places to stay and shop.”

The trail was made possible through funding from Travel Oregon and Visit Tillamook Coast, as well as the Lincoln City Visitor Bureau and the Cannon Beach Chamber of Commerce.

Coastally Crafted is from noon to 4 p.m. on April 14 and will focus on beer and cheese pairings. Entry is $10, and includes a tote bag, taster glass and 10 tasting tokens for sampling beers. Children 12 and under get in for free. Participating breweries include Pelican Brewing, Werner Brewing, Public Coast Brewing and Depoe Bay Brewing. Participating creameries include Tillamook Creamery, Nestucca Bay Creamery, Briar Rose Creamery and Willamette Valley Cheese. Other vendors are Mercury Coast, Nehalem River Ranch, Nehalem Bay Winery, Salmonberry Saloon, Brickyard Farms and North Fork 53.

Spanish Brass to play April 8 concert at Nestucca Valley Elementary School as part of Neskowin Chamber Music series

panish Brass, the acclaimed ensemble of brass players from that country, will present a concert in the Neskowin Chamber Music series on Sunday, April 8th at 3 p.m. at Nestucca Valley Elementary School, 36925 Highway 101 in Cloverdale. They gave a special Christmas concert there in 2015.

Spanish Brass was created in 1989 by five Spanish musicians as an innovative project that quickly gained worldwide fame for its performances, educational activities, and creative collaborations. Spanish Brass has given hundreds of concerts around the world in such prestigious venues as the Great American Brass Band Festival, the New York Brass Conference, the Julliard School of Music, the National Gallery in Washington D.C., the Festival de Musique de Radio-France, and the Granada International Festival, among many other places. The winner of many awards, the group has been a leader in international music education, giving courses and master classes worldwide.

Members include Carlos Beneto and Juanjo Serna, trumpets; Manolo Perez, French horn; Indale-

cio Bonet, trombone; and Sergio Finca, tuba. Known for their versatile programming and state-of-the art staging, the Spanish Brass has created shows such as “25 Years” (brass quintet), “Metal-lics,” “Brass, Brass, Brass” (educational concerts), and “Brassiana” (jazz trio). The group also runs two brass festivals in Spain — the SBALZ Festival in Alzira and the Spanish BrasSurround.

“The Brass captivated the audience in their last performance with us,” says Fran Madachy, president of the Neskowin board. “As well as being consummate musicians, they are fun to watch because they are in constant motion when they play. They literally blew the roof off the gymnasium.”

All other concerts besides this event at NVES begin at 3 p.m. at Camp Winema, three miles north of Neskowin, just west of Highway 101. Individual tickets are $25. For more information, visit neskowinchambermusic.org or call 503-965-6499.

A Master Class will be held at NVES at 5 p.m. right after the concert.
