CAMP WI-NE-MA — The “international first lady of piano” will tickle the ivories on Nov. 13 at 3 p.m. when Teresa Walters takes to the stage for Neskowin Chamber Music’s second concert of the season.

Walters’ recent experience includes performing as recitalist and orchestral soloist on six continents and in most of the 50 U.S. states at venues including Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center in New York, Wigmore Hall in London, the Salle Cortot in Paris, Moscow’s Great Hall, Australia’s International Conservatorium, and Jerusalem ’s Concert Hall.

She is the first American pianist invited by Hungary to perform three European recitals honoring the anniversary of Franz Liszt’s birthday, at the Liszt Academy of Music in Budapest, the Esterhazy Palace in Austria, and at Liszt’s birthplace in Raiding. Her Liszt recordings have received nominations for the Grand Prix du Disque and were

THE U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service will conduct an open house on Nov. 16 at Kiawanda Community Center to discuss possible revisions to its current management plan at Nestucca Bay National Wildlife Refuge. The meeting starts at 6 p.m. Call 503-867-4550 for more information.

Refuge under review PACIFIC CITY — The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service will host a community open house during which they will share preliminary future management options for Nestucca Bay National Wildlife Refuge on Nov. 16 at Kiawanda Community Center. The meeting will start at 6 p.m.

The three possible paths that future management — and public use — could take was shaped by a Comprehensive Conservation Plan and Environmental Assessment that will guide refuge management for the next 15 years.

The USFWS is also holding similar meetings for two other refuges along the coast. On Nov. 9, they will discuss the Bandon Marsh at Bandon Community Center and on Nov. 10 the Siletz Bay National Wildlife Refuge at the Lincoln City Council Chambers.

At the Nestucca complex, possible changes to the area open to public use abound. USFWS is considering adding trails, as well as a goose observation deck at the lower parking lot to the current Pacific View Trail located at the Cannery Hill Unit; the development of an old road bed into an observation point open seasonally at the Little Nestucca Restoration area located east of Highway 101; allowing wildlife observation at the Brooten Marsh Unit; and developing an elevated boardwalk and trail at Neskowin Marsh. Environmental education programs might also be expanded to include a year-round program with a full-time specialist, and interpretation opportunities could be expanded to the Neskowin Marsh boardwalk, and new trails at Cannery

Hill and the Little Nestucca Restoraton Area. The USFWS is also considering replacing the current residence with an bunkhouse and building a Refuge office with a visitor lobby.

Other changes could include allowing waterfowl hunting on Brooten Marsh, the mouth of the Little Nestucca River and the Little Nestucca Restoration Area, as well as pursuing opportunities to provide bank fishing to the Little Nestucca River and clamming in the Brooten Marsh Unit.

And any possible changes adopted aren’t limited to public access. Other management changes under consideration include introducing a “non-essential experimental” population of the Oregon Silverspot Butterfly to current limited efforts to establish potential habitat.

That effort would be preceded by a coastal prairie restoration and successful establishment of high quality habitat. Also under consideration are modifications to the current policy of keeping the tsunami evacuation route and bridge in place at Neskowin Marsh. The bridge could be made disabled-accessible and the USFWS is also considering conducting a hydrologic study and modifying the trail bed and bridge to improve hydrology.

A variety of biological monitoring in addition to the limited data that has been collected on Canada geese is also under consideration.

For more information on the proposed use and management alterations or the upcoming community meeting, call 503-867-4550.

New Sheriff Andy Long sworn in TILLAMOOK — There’s a new sheriff in town!

Former Undersheriff Andy Long took the oath of office on Tuesday, Nov. 1 by County Clerk Cassie O’Neil.

Long began his law enforcement career with the United States Coast Guard in 1981 with 10 years of active duty. In 1991, when he was hired with the Tillamook County Sheriff’s Office, he transferred to active reservist status as a Coast Guard Special Agent with the USCG Investigative Service until retirement in 2001.

His law enforcement career has spanned nearly all facets as Long has served as a corrections deputy, patrol deputy, patrol sergeant, detective sergeant, and jail commander. He was appointed as undersheriff last August.

Posts that Long has held or is currently holding include stints as both vice president and president of the Oregon State Sheriffs Jail Command Council, chairman of the North Coast Narcotics Task Force, and instructor for the Oregon Department of Public Safety Standards and Training.

He is dual certified for both police work and corrections at the administrative level — the highest level that the Oregon Department of Public Safety Standards and Training awards.

He says the challenges of the offices are many, but the biggest one is funding.

“It’s something that for the next couple of years,

Page 4 • Pacific City Sun • November 4, 2011

we’re going to have to be careful about. It’s going to be our big challenge.”

Long says that with his varied and extensive experience, the position of sheriff is a good fit. He has already filed for the upcoming election — a necessary step for keeping his post beyond the temporary appointment by Tillamook County Commissioners.

“It’s something that I thought would be a good spot for me — but only when (former sheriff) Todd (Anderson) decided to leave. I would have worked for him as long as he was here.”

No stranger to South Tillamook County, Long worked the Sand Lake and South Tillamook County area while serving as a patrol deputy.

Since his appointment on Nov. 1, Long has been busy getting his new house in order. He has promoted former jail commander Jana McCandless to undersheriff. Taking her spot will be Beaver resident John Briscoe.

He added that a key element to his leadership style is really a tip of the hat to Anderson.

“We (Anderson and Long) believe in mentoring people,” he said. “We believe we have good people.

We want to mentor them and think of a succession plan. We have people here that are really good leaders. We have a lot less personnel issue problems (than many departments that assign promotions from outside sources).”

Help Save Tillamook County Roads!

• Tillamook County has the worst county roads in Oregon according to a state-wide engineering report • Federal funding goes away in 2012. Additional funding from the state is not likely. Public works

staffing has gone from over 50 employees in the 1980s to about 20 today.

• We need to solve our own problems as we have with our schools, jail, hospital, community college,

library, and water and sewer plants.

• General property tax funds cannot be used for road construction or repair per Oregon law. Using

funds from other sources to maintain our roads would significantly reduce other important and state mandated services such as public safety, jail operations, county clerk and assessor, and more.

• Our county road system is our largest public asset valued at about $400 million.

• A $15 Million General Obligation Bond Measure will rebuild and repair the worst of our roads. All

funds will be used for road repair. NO ADDITIONAL COUNTY STAFF WILL BE HIRED.

• About 37 miles of county roads will be rebuilt. Funds will be expended over 36 months. About 30%

will go to North County, 40% in Central County and about 30% in South County. Any continuing funds from the state will be used to extend the life of other county roads. The list of roads scheduled for repair is on Tillamook County’s website.

• The cost of the bonds is estimated at about $.46 per $1000 of assessed valuation. A property

assessed at $200,000 would pay about $92.00 per year. The bonds will be retired over ten years. ALL OWNERS OF REAL PROPERTY WILL PAY INCLUDING VACATION RENTALS AND SECOND HOMEOWNERS.

By SALLY RISSEL for the Sun When I decided to start writing about local history, everyone said I needed to talk to Wilma Hagerty Rowland, who died Oct. 14.

Rowland was born in Meda, Ore. on April 24, 1915, and died on Meda Loop — not far from her childhood home. She was the salutatorian in the first graduating class from the newly-built Nestucca High School in 1933. Wilma is a descendent of several important pioneer families that first settled in Woods and Meda. Her grandfather was Darius Jerome Dunn and grandmother was Elisabeth Jane Whiteman Dunn. Her parents were John Clarence Dunn, who was born in 1887, and mother Estestlla Miles. Estestlla was born in Woods in 1891 — Miles Lake belonged to her grandparents.

With her incredible memory, Wilma was a valuable resource for me. She put together dates, relationships between families, and shared the whole understanding of what this community was like 100 years ago.

I once drove Wilma around Meda Loop and Little Nestucca Road where she pointed out the location of the one-room school house, cheese factories, father’s saw mill, post office and early homesteads. Wilma’s life touched on all aspects of early South Tillamook County history — Brooten Baths, Elmore Cannery, Oretown School, Neskowin Hotel, and of course, every early family within a 30-mile radius.

After several visits with Wilma and listening to her wonderful stories, she told me that she had taken a writing class from Nan Phillips in the 70s where she wrote about some of her early childhood memories. I asked her if I could read them and was so enchanted with her stories that I typed them up and bound them for her so she could share them with friends and family.

The following are a couple of excerpts from Wilma’s “Early Childhood Memories in Meda, Ore.” From “Flossie, Pete, Prince and ‘Kaiser” “Grandpa Dunn’s horse team, Pete and Flossie were responsible for many happy childhood memories and some very frustrating times.

“They were used for light work on the farm. We had a team of Prince and Kaiser that weighed approximately 2,000 pounds apiece that we used for plowing, cutting hay etc. I remember Donnie and me trying to harness old Kaiser who stood by the stairs to the hay mow. It took both of us to push his collar up around his neck where I would hold it while Donnie ran up the stairs, crawled onto his big wide neck and buckled the collar. For a number of years that was as far as we managed to harness him. Before I was through high school, we could together complete the job with the help

An important resource to our area’s history was lost on Oct. 14 when Wilma Hagerty Rowland died. She was born in Meda, Ore. on April 24, 1915, and died on Meda Loop — not far from her childhood home. of the hay mow stairs. Prince wasn’t easier because we didn’t trust him to not bite or kick, so daddy said, ‘Don’t play around him.’ The only time we ever rode ‘Kaiser was if daddy was driving them back from plowing or disking. He would boost us up on the broad back and we were thankful for the harness to hold securely to because it was a long way to the ground. He was a Belgium horse.

“Now Pete and Flossie were another story. We could and would harness them quickly, hook them up to the sled and off we’d go up the hill to gather spruce knots for wood.

Sometimes we’d make a sharp turn, hook a runner on a fallen tree or stump and come to an abrupt halt or pull a runner loose. As I look back on those days, I realize that in our play time between chores, Donnie and I were the happiest most carefree kids that ever grew-up.”

From “Measles and Fires” “When the east wind blew and the telephone started ringing our long ring, everyone ran to the phone to hear the operator say whose house was on fire. Everyone would jump in the car and go as fast as they could to try to save the buildings and possessions with bucket brigades. Sometimes the creeks didn’t have enough water. The children would climb up on the hill because our parents wouldn’t let us go and we could see all over the valley and watch the fires or at least see the smoke from there. We never had anyone hurt. In one case the fire at a house was burning slowly as it was shielded from the strong wind. The family was up on the hill out of sight of the fire making hay and the neighbors got to the house first and moved everything out of the house even canned goods and empty fruit jars. When Paul and Vi White came off the hill they didn’t have a house but everything else had been saved.”

Meeting Wilma was one of the highlights of my research about South Tillamook County. She will be greatly missed by her family and this community. There is a copy of Wilma’s stories in the Pacific City Library.

Grinnell appeals decision to deny variance PACIFIC CITY — Developer Greg Grinnell applied for an appeal on Oct. 10 to the Tillamook County Planning Commission’s Sept. 22 decision to deny a variance application for his proposed Nestucca Landing. The variance would have reduced the riparian setback on his proposed development from 50 feet to a variable seetback of 30- to 38-feet.

Located on the southeast corner of Pacific Avenue and Nestucca Boulevard, just west of the Beachy Bridge, the proposed development would feature six townhomes and a 3,500 square foot restaurant on the approximately .8-acre property.

At press time, an appeal date had not been set as, according to Tillamook County planners, the applicant was still in the process of completing paperwork for the appeal hearing, during which Grinnell and his team will state their case in front of Tillamook County Commissioners.

On the road to entertainment Duo brings flair of folk, from a unique Oregonian perspective, to Pacific City for Nov. 12 concert PACIFIC CITY — Take a trip down the road of eclectic music that boasts an organic feel that’s so representative of Oregon’s culture when Sky in the Road winds it way to “The Home of the Dory Fleet” on Saturday, Nov. 12 at 7 p.m. at Nestucca Valley Presbyterian Church.

Presented by the Pacific City Arts Association and the Nestucca Valley Presbyterian Church, the musical celebration will feature Sky in the Road’s award-winning musicians, Daniel Rhiger and Rahmana Wiest, known for creating music with an organic feel that reflects their unique native Oregonian perspective. They describe their music as folk-based winding its way through Americana, country, Celtic, world folk, gypsy jazz, new age, rock, reggae and more. Ardis Hedrick of Positively Entertainment and Dining noted that “so many influences can be heard when you listen to them, it’s hard to keep track of them all, but it comes across as totally original.”

Known for their tight, soaring vocal harmonies, they fill out their sound with a variety of instrumentation including 6- and 12-string guitar, Irish bouzouki, banjo, and East Indian harmonium.

Rhiger received two runner-up awards in Billboard Magazine’s 1991 National Song writing Contest for his songs “Skyward Dancer” and “The Rediscovery of Fire.” Bill Fisher of Seattle’s Victory Review called the band “utterly engaging in live performance,” and noted “Sky in the Road combines bluegrass, pop, singer-songwriter folk, chant, world music touches and simmering passion in all their music.” Rhiger frequently use phrases from the Persian poet Rumi as a foundation for lyrics combined with Celtic music creating “remarkable crescendos that wash over the listener with intense emotion” as in the popular hit “Out Beyond.” His voice “has a way of quietly working its way inside of you, providing just the right amount of emotion for each song,” according to Fisher.

Wiest plays harmonium and adds percussive accents to her vocals. Fisher describes her voice as “a rich, sweet, wild, flexible and well-trained vocal instrument.” He continues, noting that if “Dan has Celtic music in his soul, Rahmana is full of passionate gypsy leanings, but her voice can sound like the angel sent to awaken us or like the demon goddess sent to invite us to earth’s ancient dances.”

Sky in the Road has toured the West coast from Monterey to Vancouver, B.C. and east to New York, Chicago, St. Louis, and Denver, playing intimate cof-

SKY IN THE ROAD will bring their eclectic brand of folk music to Pacific City on Saturday, Nov. 12 during a 7 p.m. concert at Nestucca Valley Presbyterian Church, located at 35305 Brooten Rd.

Since 2001, they have been featured three times on the nationally-syndicated radio show, River City Folk. The duo has shared the stage with performers as diverse as Peter Yarrow, Utah Phillips, Betsy Rose, Tom May, Tracy Grammer, and Susan Osborn.

Wiest and Rhiger have released several CDs, including “Time Travels,” “Celtic Gypsy,” “Where Everything Is Music,” “Set the Wild One Free, “Celebration,” and “Sky in the Road.” Their recordings have received airplay in major markets such as Boston, San Francisco, and Portland.

Fisher encourages audiences to hear Sky in the Road “whenever and wherever possible. There is no one quite like them. Few bands satisfy so completely.”

The concert at Nestucca Valley Presbyterian Church, 35305 Brooten Road, will conclude PCAA’s 2011 season. General admission tickets, priced at $10, may be reserved or purchased in advance at the Pacific City Inn, 35280 Brooten Road (503-965-6464) or from 10 a.m.-5 p.m. at the Rowboat Gallery, 34950 Brooten Road (503-965-4590).

Lauding their service

By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun PACIFIC CITY — They’ve served you and this great country and now it’s time to return the favor! The Sportsman’s Pub-n-Grub will play host to U.S. armed services veterans — both young and old —Friday, Nov. 11 a.m. during a Veteran’s Day celebration that will start at 2 p.m.

The spread in honor of veterans will include complimentary hot dogs and chili, as well as a complimentary beverage for both veteran’s and their wives.

The public, whether they have served in the armed forces or stayed home to do battle in their daily lives, is invited to come to the event to pay tribute to these men and women that sacrificed so much for the good of the nation.

To bring home the sacrifice that so many local veterans made during their service, longtime resident and Air Force veteran Dick Carter will share several stories of local veterans’ dedication, service and sacrifice.

“I’ll talk about the things people have done from WW2 up to the current date,” said Carter, who retired as a Lt. Colonel from the Air Force in 1973 after 21 years of service.

Carter’s presentation will include a homage to Marine Colonel Kenneth Russer, who is memorialized on the Cloverdale bridge.

“He’s one of the highest decorated Marine aviators in history,” he said.

One of Russer’s claims to fame was a WW2 dogfight with a Japanese Zero.

Russer had been exchanging shots with the enemy for some time when he finally maneuvered into the 6 o’clock position, which is considered the ideal attack point. That was the good part.

The not so good was that he found himself out of ammo. But even that didn’t make Russer pack it in.

“He was flying a Corsair prop-driven flyer,” said Carter. “He flew up on the rear end of the Zero and chewed up its tail with his prop. That in itself puts him way out ahead of everybody. I’ve never heard of anything like that in my years as a fighter pilot.”

Following his Marine service, Russer returned to the South Tillamook County area where he worked as a general contractor and built several homes in both Pacific City and Neskowin.

Carter will also share a story of his Vietnam War wingman, Paul McClellan, Jr., who gave his life to protect ground forces engaged in battle. He said that McClellan was delivering Napalm just 50 feet above the tree line in support of the ground effort when his the belly of his plane was hit.

“I was up above him on the run,” recalls Carter. “I saw him get hit and make a gradual descending turn and crash.”

Those with more recent service to our country will also be hailed during the celebration including Mike Kirkpatrick and Justin Doan, who recently served in Afghanistan and Iraq.

“They are our most recent young heroes,” said Carter. “It’s important to recognize the contributions of our veterans. (Veteran’s Day) is about veterans and (their willingness) to give their life

of cocktails and a reacquainting spot to share old times and new since 1947.

Spooky, but safe PACIFIC CITY — Even ghouls and goblins need a safe haven now and then — and that’s exactly what they got at the Kiawanda Community Center’s annual Halloween party on Monday, Oct. 31.

On Hallow’s Eve, revelers were greeted by Halloween-themed cars and welcoming volunteers and staff members of the Nestucca Rural Fire Protection District on the outside and fun and games in the comfy confines of the center.

Activities at “Trick or Trunk” included face painting, tattooing, and a cake walk. Kids also collected community center supplied goodies at games that included a “ghostly” ring toss, miniature golf, a “graveyard” bing bag toss, and this year’s interpretation of the fish pond — the “creature of the blue lagoon.”

Taking home the trophy for the best decorated car in the “trunk” half of the fun night was the family of Rick Lakey, of Cloverdale. His 1996 Ford Explorer was decorated by Rebecca Frances Lakey.

FISHING & OUTDOORS

Swoopin’ up salmon Holiday Kickoff!

Begin the Holiday Season with a Winetasting and Ornament Signing

By PAT GEFRE for the Sun Finally enough rain to boost the Nestucca River! Fishermen have been waiting patiently for significant rainfall in hopes of getting the river season started.

The tidewater fishery has been king up till now, but its time to move over as the river season is about to catch fire. It started raining in serious fashion Sunday night, Oct. 30, and

by Monday morning, the big Nestucca had risen almost eight inches to 4.5 feet. That was all it took to send salmon flying out of tidewater and up the Nestucca River.

Witnesses stated seeing huge schools of salmon heading up from Cloverdale and ditto at the Three Rivers boat launch.

One fisherman said it was like watching fish going through a turnstile. Another fisherman THE author with a couple of nice fall chinook. claimed he watched four different schools of salmon coming up the rapids at Cloverdale.

County applies for grant to fund Cloverdale park and ride

By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun CLOVERDALE — Tillamook County is hoping to erect a downtown park and ride that would serve the community as both a bus station for the Tillamook County Transportation District and a community park for both residents and tourists — and they are seeking to do much of it on the Oregon Department of Transportation’s dime.

The county applied for ODOT’s Flexible Funds Program on Oct. 20 and are seeking $253,903 for the project. The remainder of the funds — in excess of $32,000 — for the Photo by Tim Hirsch proposed $286,420 project will come from the County and its partners, which include the TILLAMOOK COUNTY has applied for a $253,903 grant from Cloverdale Committee of the Pacific CityOregon Department of Transportation in hopes of erecting a Nestucca Valley Chamber of Commerce, the downtown park and ride and wayside park in Cloverdale.

Twist raises $900 for cancer research Pacific City — Twist Wine Co. raised $900 in their month-long drive to commemorate Breast Cancer Month, which is historically held every October.

The funds were raised on the strength of Twist donating 5 percent of all October sales in their tasting room and farmer’s market, as well as 20 percent of their total sales and 100 percent of tips during an Oct. 21 special event. The funds will be donated to the Breast Cancer Fund.

Founded in 1992, the Breast Cancer Fund advocates for the elimination of environmental and other preventable causes of breast cancer. Recent work has included working with companies to get BPA out of tin can liners found in items such as fruits, vegetables and soups, and out of baby bottles. The Fund also works with cosmetic companies to eliminate ingredients in

personal care products that are know carcinogens. The Breast Cancer Fund views breast cancer as a public health priority that demands action from all. For more information, visit www.breastcancerfund.org.

Now operating under winter hours, Twist Wine is open Thursday through Sunday, 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Thursday and Sunday, 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. In addition to offering their own wines available by the glass they have a selection of regional craft beers on tap. They also operate Reversal Apparel Gifts, which features custom designed shirts & sweatshirts, funky gift items, and fair trade and regionally produced jewelry. Both the Tasting Room and Reverse Apparel Gifts are located at 6425 Pacific Avenue in downtown Pacific City. For more information, call 503965-NUTS.

For the Chamber, leadership is key

By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun PACIFIC CITY — By most accounts, thus far 2011 has been a banner year for the Pacific City-Nestucca Valley Chamber of Commerce. They once again logged a number of successful events including an Easter Egg Hunt, the Follow the Balloons Treasure Hunt, the Pacific City Birding & Blues Festival, Clover’s Day, and Dory Days and are looking forward to finishing strong with the annual Awards Banquet on Dec. 6, as well as their second presentation of the Harlem Ambassadors on Tuesday, Nov. 8.

But that momentum could be lost, said 2011 President Jeremy Strober, if the group can’t get a pair of leaders — and

soon. Currently no one has stepped forward to serve as either the 2012 president or vice president.

“The Chamber has so much momentum and strength. It’s worth spending a few hours a week to keep it going,” he said. “We’ve got a real strong board.

We’ve got great event committees. We’ve got great momentum. We just need someone to lead.”

The board is meeting on Nov. 17, at which time Strober is hoping someone will step up.

Strober speculated that without a president in place, the board would have to “continue to move the chamber forward but there will a real void.”

To discuss your interest in the open positions, call Strober at 503-965-0088.

TLW, NVCA ok development plan, seek creditor approval

By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun PACIFIC CITY — Both Tillamook Lightwave and the Nestucca Valley Community Alliance have approved a plan for the shared development of TLW’s cable landing station property located just east of Cape Kiwanda Drive in Pacific City. The property is sandwiched between Pacific City’s “Dory Pointe Subdivision” and Cape Kiwanda R.V. Park.

The two groups will be presenting the plan to TLC Federal Credit Union officials on Tuesday, Nov. 8 for their approval.

Though a portion of the property is currently leasing building space to the University of Washington for their role in the Ocean Observatories Initiative, the TLW board has agreed to make more than half of the 4.56 acres initially available to the NVCA for public uses.

UW is using the property for their Regional Scale Nodes Project — a network of submarine fiber optic and power cables that is a component of the National Science Foundation’s Ocean Observatories Initiative (OOI). The nearly 800 kilometers of RSN cable create a large-aperture natural laboratory for conducting a wide range of long-term and innovative experiments within the ocean volume using real-time control over the entire cabled system.

The current plan calls for the longterm leases with the NVCA for a 1.55acre tract and to the Nestucca Rural Fire Protection District for a .24-acre piece. Additionally, they are offering

two additional adjacent parcels, which would total .85 acres under a revocable permit. The remainder of the property would remain with TLW for operation of the current cable landing station, as well as providing room for a second station to be built should they secure another tenant.

According to the current plans, NVCA hopes to build a multi-use recreation building, an amphitheater, meeting room, and display area on the 1.55-acre parcel located on the east side of the property. That piece would also feature playground equipment, picnic tables and two parking lots. Nestucca Fire’s piece is slated to be used to store water rescue equipment. The .85-acre piece slated for a revocable permit would be used for low investment improvements such as parking so significant capital would not be lost if TLW would determine they need the space for an additional expansion.

The approval by TLC, who issued a loan to TLW for the purchase of the property, is necessary because TLW only offered the land up as collateral with no personal guarantees.

“What happens on that land is critical to the lender, said TLW President Paul Levesque. “We’ve gone the extra mile in accommodating as much public use as possible on the property but it’s all subject to the ratification of TLC. This is their only collateral so it’s going to be very important for them to buy off on this.”

PORTLAND – Specialty art retailer The Dapper Frog, which has its headquarters in Pacific City, will open two holiday stores in the Portland area.

The company, which specializes in fine art glass, sculpture, hand-made jewelry and collectibles, is opening holiday galleries in Pioneer Place mall at 700 SW Fifth Ave. in downtown Portland and in Clackamas Town Center at 12000 SE 82nd. Ave. off Highway 205 east of Milwaukie in Happy Valley.

Both will be open by Nov. 1 and will remain open for three months.

“This is the fourth year we have opened special seasonal outlets,” noted Dapper Frog owner John McDonnell.

“We have found it to be an excellent way to expand our brand awareness and introduce ourselves to new audiences.”

McDonnell said the holiday stores will not only feature a variety of merchandise like that found in his yearround galleries, but also a significant number of special order items that will be sold at particularly attractive price points.

McDonnell said this is the first year he has opened holiday stores in established indoor malls.

“Even during these challenging times, we believe such centers remain the traditional magnet for holiday shopping. During the season, malls exude a holiday mood and bustling atmosphere

Page 14 • Pacific City Sun • November 4, 2011

that lifts the spirit. And that fits perfectly with our year-round light-hearted retailing approach,” he explained.

“We try to achieve a high degree of whimsy in our galleries. We want people to feel relaxed.”

Since opening its first gallery on the Oregon coast in 2005, The Dapper Frog has become one of the leading dealers in fine art glass in the Pacific Northwest.

But McDonnell said he has positioned his galleries to serve a wide array of customer tastes and budgets.

“Beauty comes in many forms,” McDonnell said. “In our galleries, you can find a stunning $25 glass paperweight right next to a world-class art glass sculpture. We have designed our galleries to be fun and approachable for everyone.”

Besides the two holiday stores, The Dapper Frog has five year-round locations, including one in Portland’s Pearl District, one in the wine country and three on the Oregon coast (at 34930 Brooten Road in Pacific City, at 7755 Highway 101 North at the Shops at Salishan, and at 701 North Beach Drive in Newport) as well as a large online shopping site at DapperFrog.com.

The Dapper Frog features original art glass from leading national and international artists, sculpture, handmade art jewelry, fine collectibles and ceramics, designer décor items and quality gifts in a wide range of prices.

Despite the strong running of Zach Welch, Nestucca fell to the Portland Christian Royals, 41-24, in Nestucca’s last home game on Oct. 28.

‘Cats lose momentum, fall to Portland Christian CLOVERDALE — Despite controlling the second quarter, the Nestucca Bobcats (1-7, 0-4 in league play) couldn’t maintain momentum in an Oct. 28 contest vs. the Portland Christian Royals, eventually losing the contest 41-24.

The rain was pouring early and the Royals were rolling behind a series of big-gain pass plays and effective sweeps.

It wasn’t long before Portland Christian put up 15 points on the ‘Cats. One of the Royal’s tall receivers, Ty Zimmerman, did much of the damage.

“The pass is what beat us,” said Nestucca Head Coach Jeff Schiewe.

But in the second quarter, the momentum swung the other way on the strength of Zach Welch’s punt block in the end zone that was recovered by Drace Moeller.

Nestucca began to move the ball behind Welch’s strong running and the solid blocking of Rich Roberts and Sam Kenagy. It wasn’t long before the ‘Cats reached the end zone twice. After Welch’s 47-yard touchdown and a twopoint conversion, the ‘Cats led 16-15.

“Welch was really unstoppable,” said Schiewe. “He ran for over 130 yards.

He had a very good game.”

The defense of Max Kirkendall also helped to keep the game competitive.

Schiewe credited Kirkendall with doing

a solid job of keeping the Royals sweep attack inside where it could be contained. Free Safety Westin Boisa, who is leading the team in tackles, also continued his strong play.

The game also served as a reminder of the opportunity that the onside kick provides to teams of the ‘Cats caliber.

Nestucca recovered two of their onside kicks.

But as it turns out, it wasn’t long before the pendulum swung the other way.

The Royals started the second momentum swing with a fumble recovery and didn’t let up until they took a 28-16 lead into the locker room at halftime.

Though Schiewe came away impressed with the solid second quarter play, he said what his young team really needs is the ability to put together 10 good plays instead of two or three.

“We need to finish,” he said. “We just have to increase our consistency.”

Nestucca next travels to face the unbeaten Gaston Greyhounds on Nov. 4.

So far, the Greyhounds have only been seriously challenged by the Knappa Loggers, winning a 12-6 victory on Oct. 7.

“They’re very balanced and have a good running attack,” said Schiewe. “But we’re going after it. The seniors want to win and the young kids want to prepare for next season.”

Royals best ‘Cats 3-0 in district playoffs CLOVERDALE — The 2011 volleyball campaign is over for the Nestucca Bobcats (10-14). The ‘Cats fell in straight games to the Portland Christian Royals (25-14, 25-14, 25-10).

Despite the loss, Head Coach John Elder said the kids can hold their heads high.

“They are the highest ranked team in our district,” he said. “We played them pretty tough until the score got to be around 15, and then they would go on

a run, and we couldn’t stop it.”

Top Nestucca performers in the final game included Jasmine Boisa and Rebecca Windle, who Elder says had some good saves. He also credited the net play of Brittany Hurliman.

“Brittany hit well the first two games and stuff blocked their best player three or four times,” he said. “Our girls did a great job getting to the playoffs and played as hard as possible in the game.

We were just outmatched.”
