ith COVID restrictions mostly a thing of the past, runners have been returning to road races across the country and the Three Capes Marathon Relay, held Feb. 26, was no exception as a total of 117 teams of one to five runners each embraced the challenge of running from Cape Meares to Pacific City.

First to finish and first place in the two-person team category were the mother-son team of Angie and Carter Kunert who conquered the course in 3:09:50.74. Shortly after finishing the race, the Tillamookbased runners talked about how much fun it was to run as a motherson team and to return to racing with restrictions now lifted.

“I think the atmosphere is something special,” Carter said, who previously ran it a couple of times with his high school team. “(It’s an atmosphere) that you ANGIE KUNERT, seen here crossing the finish line, can’t probably get anywhere else joined forces with her son Carter and recorded the because there (were) a lot of runners fastest two-person team time at the Three Capes Marathon Relay. They finished in 3:09:50.74. of various abilities out there, and they’re all in it for the common goal, from start to finish, to run as fast as Ultimook Running Camp, a youth running they can and have a good time. There’s camp. something special about that.”

Finishing fastest in the five-person team Noting that road running is something was the John Clement team in a time of that everyone can do, Angie said she is glad 2:32:31.26. The quickest solo participant to see road races such as the Three Capes to the finish line was Bam Bam of London, Marathon Relay happening again.

Ore. in a time of 3:10:54.60. The race also “It was really nice to see all the people had a plethora of categories for runners out to do it again,” she added. “It’s very to compete in.

Kiwanda Corridor Project Open House set for April 16

The upcoming Open House for the Kiwanda Corridor Project has been scheduled for April 16 at 10 a.m. at the Kiawanda Community Center.

Multiple stakeholder groups have provided input in the concept design process over the last six months.

“The community input has been invaluable and has significantly shaped the current proposed alternatives,” said Rachel Hagerty, Tillamook County’s Chief of Staff. “We decided to convene the in-person open house on a Saturday in April, following the Citizen’s Advisory Committee recommendation for better attendance. This also provides us time to incorporate stakeholder input before sharing the concepts with the broader public. We are excited to share the concepts and look forward to hearing more of the public’s input.”

The draft concepts explore the future uses and improvements of Cape Kiwanda Parking Lot, Nestucca Valley Community Alliance Lot, Webb Park, Cape Kiwanda Drive Multi-Use Path, and the Jensen Property. The concepts presented at the Open House will create an opportunity for public feedback on specific elements of the concepts as well as the overall project.

A virtual open house, with the same information provided at the in-person meeting, will be available April 8 through April 25. The open house link will be posted at tillamookcoast.com/southcounty/ kiwanda-corridor.

Feedback received through the Open House process will inform the preferred concept plan. This final step in the planning effort will be shared with the stakeholder groups and the public again before being presented to the Tillamook County Board of Commissioners before summer. Offiicals say that comments are always invited at kiwanda@ tillamookcoast.com.

campus),” said Bill Hagetry, board chair. “She has kept the students’ education first and foremost despite facing (the) challenges of distance learning and a constant moving target of rules and regulations.”

He also credited her with leading the district’s efforts to increase its contingency fund, a fund that has grown from less than 2 percent to approximately 12 percent of the general fund.

“I feel really fortunate to have such an educated and supportive Board of Directors,” Wharton later told the Sun. “I’m excited to continue to serve in this district. I think it’s a great place to raise kids. I’m looking forward to great things in the next couple of years.”

County grants conditional use permit for 19-site campground in Tierra Del Mar A conditional use request for a 19-site recreational campground in Tierra Del Mar was unanimously approved, 7-0, by the Tillamook County Planning Commission on Feb. 24.

Accessed via Floyd Avenue to the east of Sandlake Road, the campground is being planned by the Oregon Treehouse Partners LLC and will be sited on an approximately 18-acre portion of a 58.51-acre parcel. The smaller portion where the campground is planned for is zoned Rural Residential 2-Acre while the remainder of the parcel, on which the campground will not intrude, is zoned small wood lot.

According to Tillamook County Land Use Planner Melissa Jenck, the development will feature permanently sited RVs (which the applicant has identified as accessory cabins) located at the entrance of the property along

with 15 tents sites — nine of which will be owner-provided tents. There is also a support cabin and additional amenity facilities planned, such as a bath house.

As part of the conditions of approval, the applicant is being asked to a obtain a variety of standard permits and approvals such as from DEQ, Nestucca Rural Fire Protection District, Tillamook County Public Works and more. In addition, a geologic hazard report could be required depending on where any structures are erected. The applicant is also being asked to maintain vegetative buffers between the proposed area of development and the property boundaries, to limit overnight use by a camper or camper’s vehicle to not longer than six months in a 12-month period; and to comply with signage, and riparian and vegetation retention requirements.

NVSD ends mask mandate, opens doors for unvaccinated volunteers to participate

By TIM HIRSCH Of the Sun

V

isitors. students and staff of Nestucca Valley School District will be able to enter its indoor facilities or ride one of its school buses with no mask beginning Monday, March 14 announced Superintendent Misty Wharton in a March 3 letter to parents and the community.

The decision comes in the wake of the State of Oregon, together with Washington and California, making masks optional in indoor public places, starting on March 12. Wharton noted that under the state’s new direction, school districts now have the ability to “examine local conditions such as the vaccination rates of staff and students, community spread rates of COVID 19, and the state provided metric used to measure the risk of transmitting COVID 19.”

Wharton said that when the county is in the “medium” risk zone, as it is now, the recommendation is to make masking indoors optional. She noted that the district intends to support families that still wish to have their children wear masks and is asking all to respect those individual decisions.

She further explained the changes at the March 9 NVSD Board of Directors meeting.

In particular, she said it is important to “create a culture of acceptance” for those that elect to continue to wear masks.

“The kids, even today, are all excited because they realize it’s the last day in class where they have to wear a mask,” Wharton said in a March 10 interview with the Sun. “To (be able to see) everyone

smile and be happy, we’re pretty pumped about that.”

Wharton did stress that because Oregon’s permanent rules are still in effect, masks could be mandated again if the risk level rises.

“If we were to pop back into the high metric again, likely everybody would have to be wearing masks again and everybody would have to be taking extra mitigation strategies,” she said. “But, as long as we’re in the medium and the low and there’s not large community spread, then basically the mitigation is if you’re ill, stay home.”

Another change is the district now allowing volunteers to participate in school activities regardless of their vaccination status if they go through a just established exemption process.

“Because of the state’s move to remove masks and make them optional by March 12 and because of the lessening case counts and the new CDC metrics they’ve come up with, the district’s comfortable allowing volunteers to volunteer regardless of vaccination status,” Wharton told the Board.

To participate, volunteers will be asked to fill out a form. As of the Board meeting, Wharton said she’d already gone through the process with two individuals who want to coach and had plans to talk to two. “(It) seems to be going really well,” she said about welcoming volunteers back. “I would like to thank the community (for perservering). I realize no one enjoyed it, but (I’m thankful) that as a community, as a school districit we have been very fortunate as we didn’t have one staff member or child become seriously ill from COVID, and that can’t be said for every place.”

Longtime NVSD Board member Annis Leslie resigns Citing personal reasons, longtime Nestucca Valley School District Board member Annis Leslie submitted her letter of resignation, via email, on March 1. The Board unanimously accepted her resignation at its March 9 monthly meeting.

In her letter, she said that the protests from certain community members had no bearing on her resignation, but that it had been her intent to remain on the board until the completion of the kindergarten through 8th grade facility.

“I wish to thank Annis Leslie for being a very dedicated board member,” said Board Chair Bill Hagerty. “She

has always kept our students first and foremost in her decisions as well as the financial and well being of the district.

Annis has seen us through times when we were a million dollars in the hole to now when we have a (12 percent) contingency fund.”

And Superintendent Misty Wharton also extended her thanks.

“She served on the board long before I was even superintendent,” she said. “(When) I came on as superintendent, she was very helpful in the learning process. She always, regardless of personal beliefs, made the decisions that was best for the kids.”

PCJWSA addressing water use, water production discrepancies

By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun

Clyde Hudson photo/postcard courtesy of Sally Rissel

THE SCHOONER Gerald C, a two-masted lumber cargo ship that was built in 1895, rests at the mouth of the Nestucca River.

A Schooner’s Last Voyage Recalling the fate of ‘the Gerald C,’ which lost its battle with heavy seas in 1911

By SALLY RISSEL for the Sun

The Gerald C’s schooner was built in 1895 as a two-masted lumber cargo ship.

The ships Gerald C and Della were built in Woods by Charles Ray. Both boats made regular trips into the Nestucca River from the Pacific Ocean.

As reported by the “History of Little Nestucca Country,” by Alexandria Rock: “The Gerald C went on the beach several times. On Feb. 8, 1910, she landed on the north spit entrance to the Nestucca River. She had been pounded hard during an exceptionally high tide. A local man,

Will Penter, and the boat engineer tried to board her but were caught by a huge breaker. The engineer was thrown down and rolled up on the beach thoroughly soaked. On the 11th, the vessel was pulled into deep water just before a high tide.

“On Oct. 30 and 31, 1911, the “Gerald C” had trouble on its last trip and was tossed about by heavy seas, losing its anchor and chain. John, Willie, and Ole Redberg made five attempts to raise them without success. They did get part of the chain. On Nov. 6, they made another perilous attempt and did raise the anchor and rest of the chain, delivering them to the cannery dock.”

In recent months, Pacific City Joint Water Authority has been taking a closer look at the discrepancy between its water production and use, numbers that has PCJWSA manager John Wesely concerned. He addressed the matter at the Authority’s March 8 Board of Directors meetings.

According to the Authority’s production and usage meters, the difference between the amount of water produced and the amount consumed has ranged from a low of 3 percent last September to a high of 47 percent in February. In terms of actual volume, in February PCJWSA reported producing 6.776 million gallons of water and billed 3.603 million.

“I’m quite stymied by the numbers we’re getting,” he told the board about the difference between what is being produced and what is being measured by individual consumption meters.

In an interview with the Sun, he said the difference between the low and high isn’t consistent with a water leak, which normally would leak at a constant rate. Nevertheless, he said that water leaks could be part of the total problem.

“One of the things we’re doing is paying particular attention to those water lines that might be in remote areas where significant leak could occur and we wouldn’t necessarily know it,” he said. “It’s fast becoming my number one priority. I believe by this time next year — and starting even sooner — we will have a robust leak protection program that doesn’t rely on us seeing water pooling up on the side of the road. We’ve got to do better than that.”

To create this leak protection program, PCJWSA has purchased equipment that will use acoustic equipment, purchased for approximately $3,500, to look for any possible leakage. The acoustic equipment

uses sounds application that will allow the Authority to hear water leaks that can’t be seen.

“Not only will we be able to hear them, but we can pinpoint them,” Wesley told the Sun. “I would expect that beginning next month, we will be out in the field actively searching (for leaks with the new equipment). Even though we’re a small system, with all the water lines and all the possible locations for leaks, it’s a process. It’s nothing that can be done in a day. It could take up to a year.”

Wesely also told the board that the Authority recently found one “substantial” leak that has now been repaired, but that he believed the leak neither accounted for the kind of water loss numbers being reported nor for the variability of those numbers.

He said he does not believe the discrepancy comes from illegal water use or from fire department or other emergency responder use.

“I can’t attribute it to anything other than water loss or meter inaccuracies or water leaks,” he said. “I do not believe we’re losing this much water, but it’s a combination (of factors). Something’s going on, and, obviously, it’s a complicated issue.

Everything (we’ve) looked at (to) this point isn’t answering the question.”

Another tack that Wesely is pursuing is to bring representatives from different water meter manufacturers for equipment used by PCJWSA to the Authority to verify both water production and water consumption meters are measuring accurately.

“With brand new meters on the consumption side, I sure think that’s a variable we can rule out, but we’re not going to rule anything out at this point,” he said.

“We’re approaching this with an open mind, and we’re going to look at everything to the best of our ability,” he told the board.

“Mark my words, we’ll solve it. We won’t solve it overnight, but this has gotten to the point where (we’ve) got to figure this out. I’ve got all hands on deck.”

FUNDING OREGON SCHOOLS In total, the 54 grants help to create or expand Career and Technical Education programs focused on high-wage, high-skill and in-demand fields such as Health Care, Manufacturing and Construction. The relationships these programs establish in their local and regional areas will provide valuable access to experience, expertise and additional forms of support to help programs provide relevant education and preparation for career and postsecondary learning experiences.

“Now more than ever, helping students prepare for the shift to college, career, and beyond is critical,” Gill said. “It is exciting to see the expansion of critical programs that align to high-need and high-wage opportunities. We’ve seen the power of CTE to support learner success and economic vitality, and we’re ready for more.”

Students who pass CTE courses graduate at higher rates when compared to the general student population. According to 2020-2021 school year figures, CTE concentrators (across all student populations) graduated at a 92.9% rate, 12.3 percentage points higher than the state as a whole.

In 2011, the Oregon Legislature established a competitive grant program entitled the CTE Revitalization Grant which strengthens the alignment of Career and Technical Education, workforce development and economic development. In July 2015, Governor Kate Brown signed House Bill (HB) 3072 and HB 5016, authorizing $9.0 million for the Oregon Department of Education to continue the CTE Revitalization Grant program. During the 2021 legislative session, $7.3 million was allocated for CTE Revitalization.

The CTE Revitalization Advisory Committee — comprising representatives from organized labor, trade organizations, education and Oregon’s business, labor, industry and trades communities —reviewed 64 applications totaling $8.7 million in requests. The committee prioritized applications based on geographic diversity, community partnerships and programs that lead to high-wage, in-demand occupations, especially for historically and currently marginalized students.

estucca Valley School District was amongst 148 Oregon middle schools and high schools — serving more than 66,000 students — that have secured career readiness grants totaling $7.321 million, Oregon Department of Education Director Colt Gill and Labor Commissioner Val Hoyle recently announced. Nestucca will receive $148,236 for it’s Nestucca Valley Hospitality and Leisure program.

ODE says the CTE Revitalization Grant funds from State of Oregon will serve diverse communities around the state, with programs focused on advanced manufacturing, engineering, agricultural science, app development, robotics, tourism, forestry, home renovation and health care.

“It’s been just great to see schools and students embrace these opportunities to learn real-world, hands-on skills they will carry into the future,” said Labor Commissioner Val Hoyle. “It’s important that all students, no matter where they live, get to experience unique CTE opportunities. There is no one way students learn or one path to success.”

NVSD Superintendent Misty Wharton told the Sun that the grant will go towards purchasing a food truck (expected to cost approximately $80,000) with the rest going toward program developing and onboarding a staff member who will offer culinary skill classes.

It’s all part of an effort to greatly increase the district’s career technical education program, which is moving from a program focused on welding and agriculture to one that includes hospitality and culinary training.

The district will also be erecting a new, $4.9 million, 13,000 square foot building to serve its CTE program. When completed, it will house a computer lab, classroom, weight room, and two shops — one specifically for welding and a flex space.

As part of this effort, the district has already paid for a pre-fabricated metal building for $950,000, a price that was locked in six months ago prior to construction costs rising 30 percent. The improvement will be paid for via $3.6 million left over from the bond that financed the new elementary school campus, together with general fund monies and a bank loan.

The metal building is expected to arrive

ELEVATED HEADLANDS such as Cape Kiwanda offer the best vantage points to put migrating gray whales in your sights. The Spring Whale Watch Week hosted by Oregon Parks and Recreation Department is not happening this year, but sites such as Cape Kiwanda still offer a good chance to spot the migrating cetaceans.

Spring whale watching kicks off The spring whale migration begins in March and the best whale watching sites are open at Oregon’s coastal parks, although trained volunteers won’t be on site. The Spring Whale Week hosted by Oregon Parks and Recreation Department and volunteers is canceled for 2022.

Designated whale watching sites — such as atop the dune at Cape Kiwanda — offer the best chances of spotting whales because of their locations, usually slightly elevated above the ocean and in areas where whales are more easily seen.

Some 25,000 gray whales will pass by Oregon’s shores from late March to June

on their way to cool Alaskan waters. Many will be accompanied by their calves, born during the winter in the warm lagoons off the coast of Baja, Mexico.

Although the Whale Watch Center in Depoe Bay remains closed, OPRD is bringing back the popular whale watching livestream at https://www.youtube.com/ user/OregonParks. The livestreams are scheduled daily March 21-25, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The Whale Watch Center will reopen to visitors in late spring 2022.

For more information, visit https:// stateparks.oregon.gov/index. cfm?do=things-to-do.whale-watching.

Nestucca aims to teach kindergartners to ride bicycles Kindergartners at Nestucca Valley School District may soon be riding bikes in their physical education classes.

All Kids Bike® is a national program on a mission to teach every child in America how to ride a bike. They are currently working to bring the All Kids Bike Kindergarten PE Program to Nestucca Valley School District. The program equips schools with everything they need to teach children how to ride: teacher training and certification, a structured eight-lesson curriculum, a fleet of Strider® 14x Bikes, Pedal Conversion Kits, fully-adjustable helmets, and a five-year support plan.

Launched in March 2018, there are already 515 schools in 50 states with All Kids Bike Kindergarten PE Programs. ”As a school district we have committed to the practice of teaching all of our students how to bicycle safely,” said NVSD Superintendent, Misty Wharton, who applied for the program. “We have worked with American Ramp Company to design a bicycle playground and pump track that will be installed next year. Also,

over the course of the next year, we will be building some mountain biking trails on our K-8 campus. When we couple these facility resources with the All Kids Bike programming/curriculum, we will be able to promote bicycling as a lifelong wellness activity to all of our kids beginning at the Pre-K and kindergarten age. Not only will our students know how to bike, they will know how to do it safely and hopefully we will inspire the future generation to be “bikers” benefitting their health and our planet.”

The Kindergarten PE Program is designed for children of all abilities and hopes to instill healthy habits at a young age.

“One of the best ways to get kids active is to get them excited about bicycles,” says All Kids Bike board member Ryan McFarland, “It’s a skill that is going to serve them in life.”
