he Village of Neskowin will be colored red, white and blue when the community gathers for patriotic and family-friendly fun on Independence Day, July 4.

The annual celebration, organized by community members, will include a “walkabout,” a Neskowin tradition since 1973, which will begin at 10 a.m. in front of Proposal Rock Inn and will feature a plethora of 4th of July themed entrants from costumed families to kids on bicycles to dogs to fire trucks.

Following the march through town, crowds will gather in the Proposal Rock Inn parking lot for a patriotic sing-a-long. As well, a military fly-over is expected at about 10:30 a.m.

The family fun will move to the beach in early afteroon when a sand castle and kite flying contest will commence on the beach at the McMinnville Street entrance. All are welcome to take part in the sandcastle building or the kite flying contests.

Registration will start at 1:30 p.m. with the contest running from 2 to 4 p.m. Immediately following the contest, judging will take place and awards will be presented to all participants, who will need to bring their own tools or kites. Visitors can park at the Neskowin Beach Wayside and can walk to the beach access located on Breakers Boulevard and McMinnville Avenue.

“This will be a fun time for all,” said organizer Meghan Myers.

And for the first time since 2017, there will be a professional fireworks display thanks to local homeowners, the Parelius family (see related story, page 9).

FAMILIES are encouraged to participate in the walkabout together – a tradition that many return for every year.

PATRIOTISM is traditionally a center of attention during Neskowin’s annual 4th of July walkabout, with people, floats, and vehicles often adorned in red, white and blue.

KIWANDA CORRIDOR PROJECT: COMMUNITY SURVEY SUMMARY & NEXT STEPS

By Brook Wyntergreen, Destination Manger, South Tillamook County

location, but a significant portion prefer a more natural open space.

•

The Kiwanda Corridor Project design team is incorporating the feedback from the April Open House and community survey into a Preferred Concept Plan, which will be available for public review in late June / early July.

The public supported the need for a restroom in the northwest corner, near the dory wall and beach. This is partially due to reducing the potential conflict with pedestrians in the parking lot by making the restroom easily accessible from the beach.

As the first step in the formal adoption process, the Kiwanda Corridor Preferred Concept Plan is being shared with various stakeholder groups. The Concept Plan will also be available on the project website, tillamookcoast.com/southcounty/kiwandacorridor, and at the South Tillamook County Library starting in late June / early July.

Webb Park • People do not like the idea of having to pass through the Webb Park parking lot to get to the campground citing safety as a primary reason why.

•

The Tillamook County Board of Commissioners is scheduled to receive a presentation on the Concept Plan at its July meeting. Any changes made to the Concept Plan after it has been shared with the public and before it is presented to the Board of commissioners will be to clarify the concept: no changes in the design are anticipated before Board of Commissioner review. Comments provided via the project website prior to the Board of Commissioner presentation will be shared with the Commissioners at the July meeting.

The need for better pedestrian crossings off Cape Kiwanda Drive at Webb Park is noted.

•

People generally like the idea of phasing development of Webb Park in order to be able to respond to actual uses and conditions of the park and spreading the cost out over time.

•

Specific comments are made about reducing impacts to neighbors and details of campground design to be considered in both the design and operation.

After meeting with the PC | Woods Parking Advisory Committee on May 31st and receiving their recommendation, the design team will be advancing the following detailed design elements for FY 2022/23: the Cape Kiwanda Parking Lot and reconstruction of the intersection at Pacific Avenue, Sunset Drive and Cape Kiwanda Drive.

Jensen Property • There is no clear preference as to how much parking should be located at the Jensen Property. Based on individual comments and feedback at the open house, people desire that the Jensen Property be the location for a large parking lot at the south end of the Corridor.

•

More passive park uses are preferred at Jensen Property. Survey responses imply the Jensen property should be designed for use by the local community, noting a desire to keep the Jensen Property as an oasis for the residents of Pacific City.

•

The summary below highlights the key take-aways from the survey results. A more detailed summary results can be found on the project website.

For the neighbors living near the Jensen Property, there is a desire for a natural buffer between the neighboring residents and the public space.

•

Core Values • Prioritizing the natural environment/ supporting sustainability and honoring the place were identified as the two most important core values.

Providing vehicle and pedestrian access to the beach from the Jensen Property is important to many, but there are concerns about safety.

•

Pros and cons are identified for both a roundabout and a realigned intersection at the entrance to the Jensen Property.

Issues such as maintaining traffic flow, ease of maneuvering the intersection for dory boats, trailers and RVs, and pedestrian safety are identified.

Community Survey Summary Thank you to everyone who participated in the virtual and in-person open houses for the Kiwanda Corridor Project. Approximately 660 people participated in the on-line open house and over 100 people attended the in-person open house. Approximately 270 people responded to the community survey, including 30 local business owners.

•

The vast majority of survey respondents (250 people) are full-time residents or own property in/near Pacific City.

Project Priorities • Participants identified the multi-use path as the project they are most excited about.

•

Two themes were repeated throughout the survey: • Parking in general and the availability of parking during construction is important.

• There is a need for ongoing enforcement, maintenance and operations for projects. This should be considered in the design and funding should be included in future budgets post-construction.

Cape Kiwanda Parking Lot • There is a strong desire to maximize parking spaces at the Cape Kiwanda Parking Lot. •

Congestion, traffic flow and pedestrian safety are noted as concerns. There is a preference for less landscaping in exchange for more parking spaces.

•

People generally like the civic plaza concept because of the community space it provides, but many have concerns about on-going sand management, hardscaping the area, and amount of space it takes away from parking.

•

The use of the SE corner near the Pelican Brewery receives mixed feedback: the majority of participants like the idea of a restroom in this

NVCA Park • People prefer to keep the drop off in the existing location to preserve the parking stalls.

•

Restrooms and a BLM trail connection to Webb Park are the top two amenities desired.

•

A pickleball court is the number one request made by participants.

•

Concern that the NVCA master plan is being lost with the proposed concepts; care should be taken to ensure those features are included back into the plan.

Multi-Use Path • People prefer a wider path, with separation from cars, but also want the path to be cost efficient and the least impactful to adjacent neighbors.

•

A straight path is preferred, as it is perceived to be the most cost efficient and have the least impact on adjacent properties. However, creating a meandering path through publicly owned property and connecting to existing neighborhood paths are identified as options.

•

Eventually, people would like to see the path connect to the downtown as well.

•

The multi-use path is perceived to have the greatest impact on the livability of the area.

•

Property owners who abut the proposed multi-use path have concerns about the impact to their private property.

Waterfowl no longer accepted at wildlife rehabilitation centers due to avian flu risk Oregon Depatment of Fish and Wildlife recently announced that many wildlife rehabilitators are currently not accepting waterfowl due to the spread of avian flu in wild birds. Because waterfowl can carry the virus without showing symptoms, allowing them into rehabilitation facilities can put all the birds at the facility at risk.

Goslings, ducklings and adult waterfowl can all carry the virus. Those that find healthy ducklings or goslings without a parent nearby are being asked to leave them alone and allow the parents to find them.

For those that choose to interfere, they can be released at the nearest waterway.

Injured ducks and geese may be brought to an ODFW office for euthanasia. Please call ahead if you are bringing in an injured duck or goose.

Those that see sick or dead wild birds are being asked to not collect or handle them but report the incident directly to the local ODFW office or the Wildlife Health lab at 866-968-2600 or email at Wildlife.

Health@odfw.oregon.gov. ODFW staff will be conducting surveillance and collecting / testing sick and dead wild birds to monitor for the presence of the disease.

Portland Audubon is one of many facilities currently not accepting waterfowl.

“The risk of avian flu spreading to other birds in the wildlife rehab clinic is too high,” said Wildlife Care Center manager Stephanie Herman. “We cannot risk the health of other wildlife in our care centers.

We are hoping this situation is temporary and normal rehabilitation operations will return by mid-summer. Our goal is to serve all native wild animals in need of help so this is a very sad and difficult situation.”

This is the time of year when goslings, ducklings and other young birds are commonly picked up and brought into rehab centers. Well-intentioned people mistakenly think these young birds are orphaned because they may be temporarily separated from their parents.

This year more than ever, it is important to leave wild birds in the wild to give them the best chance for survival. If you see young

ducks or geese, please keep pets under tight control. Not feeding waterfowl is also especially important during this time. In addition to commonly causing nutritional issues, feeding congregates animals and results in overcrowding and increased risk of disease spread.

In Oregon, avian flu was first detected in wild birds in Canada goose goslings at Alton Baker Park in Eugene and it was also found in several red-tailed hawks in May. The current detections of the highly pathogenic virus have occurred only in Linn and Lane counties but ODFW biologists expect it to spread over the next several weeks.

This virus has been documented in more than 100 different species of wild birds worldwide since it was first detected in December 2021 in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. It was believed to have entered North America in an infected wild seabird or migrating waterfowl.

The virus currently circulating in Oregon and other parts of the world is very contagious among birds and can sicken and even kill many bird species, including chickens, ducks, and turkeys. Infected birds can shed avian influenza A viruses in their saliva, nasal secretions, and feces.

Susceptible birds become infected when they contact the virus after it is shed by infected birds.

Wild birds that typically carry the virus include waterbirds (such as ducks, geese, swans, gulls, and terns), shorebirds (such as sandpipers), and pelicans and cormorants.

Dabbling ducks (such as mallards, pintails, and wigeons) serve as reservoir hosts for avian influenza A viruses although it often does not cause disease in these species.

The disease can also infect raptors (hawks, eagles) that prey on or consume sick or dead waterfowl. The wild bird species in Oregon most at risk from this strain of virus currently appear to be all waterfowl, shorebirds, eagles and scavenging species such as crows and turkey vultures.

While very contagious and deadly for some birds, the risk to human health is low according to the CDC.

Open house to address Winema Subsea Cable Landing A project team that includes Amazon Web Services, Astound Broadband, 48North, ERM and Alcatel Submarine Networks are holding a community open house for a planned Winema Subsea Cable Landing on Monday, June 27 at Kiawanda Community Center, 34600 Cape Kiwanda Dr., Pacific City.

Held at two different times, noon-2 p.m. and 4-6 p.m., the open house is being billed as an opportunity to learn more about subsea

cables as well as the planned cable landing site in Winema. Another talking point will be to cover how the landing will enable a new fiber path and increase connectivity options for Oregonians. Representatives from the project team will be available to share information and answer community questions. Refreshments will be served.

For more information on the open house and the project, contact subsea-interest@ amazon.com.

In a special presentation of appreciation, the “Tuesday Stitchers,” a local community philanthropic group, presented individually hand-crafted quilts as their way of thanking fire district first volunteer and staff responders, board members, and district chaplain Dan Mason. The Tuesday Stitcher’s contribution of their donated time and material was reportedly “humbly” received with honor by each recipient.

Catering for the event was provided by Meg’s Beachwood Bar and Grill.

2021 awards recipients in the “Volunteer” category were: Officer of the Year – Roy Hansen, Emergency Medical Service (EMS) Provider – Dan Sheridan, Volunteer of the Year – Dan Doyle, Rookie of the Year – Allana Tull. 2021 awards for paid staff category went to: Officer of the Year – Eric Shoop, EMS provider – Jeremy Neel, Fire Fighter of the Year – Matt Silbernagel. 2021 Community Service Award went to Menefee Towing for their contribution in donating salvage vehicles for district extrication training.

CAC to hold June 25 meeting to address preferred concept plan for Kiwanda Corridor Project The Pacific City-Woods Citizens Advisory Committee is holding a Zoom meeting on Saturday, June 25, 2-3 p.m. to review the Preferred Kiwanda Corridor Concept Plan.

During this meeting, the project team will discuss the preferred plan, which they say will be based on the input received at the previous community open house and surveys.

To access the Zoom meeting, visit us02web. zoom.us/j/84011977173?pwd=MlBMbVA1T U43U3dXV282d08xT09FQT09 (Meeting ID: 840 1197 7173. Passcode: 293301).

To view the published summary of the survey results, visit tillamookcoast.com/ wp-content/uploads/2022/05/KiwandaSurvey-Summary-Results_Packet-2.pdf. In that summary, officials say that participants identified the proposed multi-use path as the project they are most excited about.

Additionally, they said that two themes were repeated throughout the survey. One revolved around the importance of parking in general and during any construction. A

common assertion was reportedly that new parking spaces should be constructed before removing existing parking for the project.

Specifically at the Cape Kiwanda parking lot, the public reportedly indicated a strong desire to maximize parking spaces.

Secondly, a commonly voiced concern was the belief there is a need for ongoing enforcement, maintenance and operations for projects.

Other supported concepts included a need for a restroom in the northwest corner of the parking lot, the need for better pedestrian crossing off Cape Kiwanda Drive at Webb Park, and, at the Nestucca Valley Community Alliance park, restrooms and a BLM Trail connection to Webb Park.

As for a multi-use path, survey participants preferred a wider path, with separation from cars. And citing a perception that it’s the most cost effective and has the least impact on adjacent properties, a straight path was preferred by the public.

Slingball to Wage Battle Against MS MJN Slingball Tournament returns June 25-26 to raise awareness of MS

By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun

T

he fight against multiple sclerosis will once again return to the Pacific City shoreline as the MJN Slingball Tournament welcomes competitors young and old for its annual fundraiser June 25 and 26.

The 15th annual event (no competition was held in 2020 due to COVID-19) will feature a full-day of competition on Saturday, June 25 with matches running 8 a.m.- 4 p.m. followed by finals on Sunday, June 25 that are expected to be wrapped up by lunchtime. Festivities begin the night before when participants register, check-in and reunite from 5-7 p.m. at the event’s tent on the beach. Setting the tone for the evening will be local guitarist Richard Paris.

Registration for the double-elimination adult (12 and up) tournament is $75. Kids under 12 can register for the Mini Marilyn Tourney for $40.

The game of Slingball, which consists of throwing two golf balls attached together by string at a PVC tower with the goal of getting them wrapped around the towers, is billed as a competition that anyone can excel at. Last year, for the first time ever, all three competitors on the podium were teens. And, over the years, winners have included a first-time player and a grandpa.

Organizers — and brothers — Randy and Carter Neu say that they hope to raise $15,000-$20,000 for sufferers of the disease on the strength of attracting 100-150 competitors. Both the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Oregon and Multiple Sclerosis Society of Portland will be beneficiaries of the fundraiser. MSSO primarily uses funds for research while MSSP’s focus is in easing the suffering of those living with the disease.

“We feel like both are important,” Randy said. “In years past, we’ve bought air conditioners, bought iPads, and helped with different acupuncture programs (to help those with the disease).”

The event, which the Neus started in 2007, is held in honor of the brothers’ mom, Marilyn J. Neu, who, during her lifetime, had to live with the disease.

“Carter and I grew up seeing it firsthand and seeing how it can affect the entire family,” Randy said. “At the end

SLINGBALL COMPETITORS will flock to the beach at Cape Kiwanda in Pacific City the weekend of June 25-26 for the 15th annual MJN Slingball Tournament, a fundraiser for the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Oregon and the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Portland.

SLINGBALL is a game where one throws two golf balls attached together by string at a PVC tower with the goal of getting them wrapped around the towers.

of the day, we’re doing this to help raise awareness about MS, and we’re doing this to help (those suffering through the disease). Everyone that has supported this event has made a huge difference in raising awareness of MS.” Randy told the Sun the event is not just for those with the competitive spirit.

“We’re finding there’s a good chunk of people that don’t play, but do participate in the fundraiser in other ways,” he said.

Ancillary ways to get involved include viewing the action, making bids in the event’s silent auction, laying some money down on the betting board, buying tickets for a vacation getaway raffle, signing up for Shotgun Slingball Toss or purchasing merchandise and Slingball sets.

”The silent auction is really cool,” Randy says. “It continues to be a really big hit. We have autographed items from the Miami Heat, the Portland Trailblazers, Portland Timbers, Seattle Sounders. There’s also been lots of other donations.”

The Shotgun Slingball Toss offers a chance to participate without going headto-head with someone in the tourney. It invites supporters to toss three balls at once with the single best score winning half the pot. Each toss is $5 or five tosses for $20.

To find out more about the Slingball Tournament or to register for the competition, visit slingball.com. There, visitors can discover more details on the event’s history as well as view an overview video of the fundraiser.

A Community-Minded Celebration Clover’s Day will return July 2 with a parade, children’s activities, live music and more

By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun

S

ummer fun, community and patriotic spirit, and a tip of the hat to the area’s dairy industry will combine forces on Saturday, July 2 when the Clover’s Day Festival offers a diverse day of revelry for all.

Centered around the event’s beloved parade as well as the dairy centric theme of “A South COWnty Celebration,” festivities will be held 10 a.m.-2 p.m. in downtown Cloverdale.

This year’s parade, which will start at Nestucca High School and travel through the downcore core, begins at 11 a.m. As has been tradition, the parade will feature a local cow who will be named “Clover” for the day.

“Clover’s Day began as a way to attract new residents and visitors to come to Cloverdale both for the day and to settle here,” organizer Kaylie Seymour said. “Local businesses opened their doors and held a sidewalk sale (and held) a parade led by a Holstein cow dubbed Clover. This year’s 40th annual Clover’s Day is keeping with that tradition. Local businesses both new and old will be opening their doors, vendors will line the streets, and the parade celebrating our small town will be led by a Holstein. Clover the cow (real name Rosie) from Hale Valley Holsteins will be accompanied by her daughter who hopes to be the next honorary leader of our parade.”

Taking top honors this year will be this year’s grand marshal Jan Neiderer, who will ride along in a 1957 Ford Thunderbird.

Amongst the expected 40 entries in the parade will be the Tillamook Dairy Princess, the Tillamook County Rodeo Queen, the Junior Miss Tillamook County Rodeo Queen, the Junior Miss Rodeo Oregon, as well as antique tractors, fire trucks, horses, tow trucks, classic cars and this year’s Dory Days princesses. Political dignitaries, the Boy Scouts, and a working calliope will also be a part of the march through town.

“It’s definitely a big variety,” Seymour said about the expected mix of parade entries. “Our parade is unique in that it doesn’t follow a central theme, but instead offers a little bit of everything and has something for everyone.”

MORE THAN A PARADE Though the parade may be the main act, there is much more on the agenda for the 40th anniversary of the Clover’s Day Festival. Also on tap will be a selection of

THE 2022 CLOVER’S DAY celebrations will take place 10 a.m.-2 p.m., July 2 in Cloverdale, with the Clover’s Day Parade beginning at 11 a.m. and working its way down Hwy. 101 through the middle of town. Other festivities will include food vendors, live music by the Perry Gerber Band, and children’s activities such as a petting zoo, face painting, and bubble making.

activities that will include a petting zoo, face painting and a bubble-making area.

“That was a big hit last year,” Seymour added about the bubble activity.

And for a little revved up fun, the classic cars will park around town to give gear heads a closer look at the restoration work and dedication owners have shown. As well, the classic sounds of the Perry Gerber Band will keep the party going well after the last parade float travels through town.

“He’s a local artist,” Seymour said about the band. “It’s really fun to have someone

from the community helping us celebrate the Nestucca Valley.”

Vendors are expected to include a variety of tasty treats including hot dogs and root beer courtesy of the Nestucca Valley Lions Club, farmstead cheese and homemade real fruit ice cream thanks to the Nestucca Bay Creamery, and Tillamook ice cream cones, soups, and sandwiches will be served up from Antonnete’s kitchen.

And new this year, the Dairy Women will be hosting a milk drinking contest at 12:30 p.m. in the grassy area adjacent

Nestucca Bay Creamery. Organizers are looking for teams of five people to sign up.

“It’s a diverse, family-friendly event,” Seymour said about the festivities. “Our goal is to highlight and educate people on what Cloverdale has to offer and support our small town heritage.”

As of press time, Clover’s Day was still accepting parade participants and vendors. Applications can be found on their Facebook page, picked up at the Rusty Cow, or requested by email from cloversdaycelebration@gmail.com.

FIREWORKS will take to the sky in a big way on the 4th of July in South Tillamook County with two patriotic displays, one in Pacific City and one in Neskowin. The Pacific City-Nestucca Valley Chamber of Commerce sponsored fireworks will be held on the beach at Bob Straub State Park in Pacific City, and there will also be a fireworks display in Neskowin thanks to homeowner Mark Parelius.

Illuminating the Sky

We are excited to serve our beloved Pacif ic City community their favorite coffee creations and bakery treats with a new exciting seasonal menu. Join us in our café with ocean views while you enjoy your morning brew, or grab takeout to go on your beach adventures.

A selection of f resh baked goods, sandwiches, to-go treats, snacks and all your classic and seasonal drinks are awaiting your next visit daily f rom 6:00 am - 6:00 pm.

Pacific City, Neskowin, in separate efforts, will host Indepence Day firework displays on July 4

T

he time-honored patriotic tradition of lighting the sky with a colorful display will once again provide the explanation mark for Independence Day this July the 4th as both Pacific City and Neskowin are planning all-out firework displays.

By all reports, each of the displays will surpass what may be the expected norm of small, beach town displays. Pacific City’s display, which will take to the skies from the launching ground of the beach at Bob Straub State Park has a budget of $15,000 while its neighbor to the south, the village of Neskowin, will have $20,000 at its disposal when in launches near Proposal Rock.

Sponsored by the Pacific City-Nestucca Valley Chamber of Commerce, the Pacific City fireworks display is being billled as Pacific City’s biggest ever and is being supported by the Nestucca Ridge Family of Companies who contributed a full half of the cost of the explosive event. The Chamber is continuing to accept donations as they still had $3,000 to raise as of press time. To find

out how to donate, contact the Chamber at pcnvchamber@gmail.com.

Those wishing to take in the event can do so via a variety of elevated points of view throughout town or take in the display on the beach. The estimated 30-minute display will start at dusk (approximately 10 p.m.).

A few miles south, a Neskowin professional display will return after a five-year absence. It was 2017 when the Neskowin Community Association last sponsored an Independence Day tribute, a tradition that met its end, at least in part, due to a lack of volunteer and financial support.

But those challenges have ended with the support of Neskowin homeowner Mark Parelius.

Noting the need to add financial and volunteer support and also provide a professional pyrotechnic expert in light of the shortage of such staff, he teamed up with his son Lucas, who despite the challenges of earning his license from out-of-state, surmounted the obstacles and is now ready to lead Neskowin’s renewed Independence Day pyrotechnic celebration. The display is set to light up the sky starting at 10 p.m. on July 4.

The Wenrick family business has been serving the Pacific City community for more than three decades. The Sea Q story begins when Susie and Craig Wenrick fell in love and bought their first dory.

For 30 years, Craig dedicated himself to bringing the finest and freshest, premium, dory caught seafood to the Oregon Coast. The Wenricks now say, as a family, they are carrying on the tradition.

Following the grand marshal announcement, three local religious leaders shared words of encouragement and prayed for the FLOWERS were provided at the June 4 Pacific City coming fishing season.

Give us continual respect for your creation so that was do not waste what we seek, and we enjoy our fishing and our companionship here in the Dorymen’s Association. We bless these dories and dedicate them to your honor.”

He was followed by Lonnie Moeller, pastor of Hebo Christian Center, who encouraged fishermen to consider what they will do with their catches — especially in times of plenty.

“Jesus knows where the fish are at,” Moeller said. “You can go out there, and you can fish away. You can do everything to the best of your knowledge, and you can still

come up empty. However, when you start seeking the Lord and you (ask) ‘Lord, where am I supposed to go, what am I supposed to do here for the bounty?’ he can tell you exactly where the fish are. But, you need to follow his instructions. One of the things about the scripture is that He doesn’t mind if you’re successful at all. You can be very successful, and that’s just fine with him. Now the question is what are you doing to do with it. Is it just for you? Or is to help other people?”

Moeller also said, with the dangers associated with fishing on the ocean, anglers need God’s blessings.

THE CLOVER’S DAY FUN RUN will be held on Saturday, July 2. Participating options include a 2-mile walk, a 5k, and an 8k. The run begins at the bridge on Old Woods Road at 8:30 a.m. There is no fee to participate, but donations to the track team are encouraged. Above, participants leave the start during the 2019 running of the competition.

“You guys are going to be out there,” he added. “It’s dangerous to go out and fish.

Things happen out on the ocean, and we don’t need that to happen to you. We need you to be successful in this season.”

And his prayer echoed that sentiment.

“Lord, we come to you right now and we ask that your hand will be on each and every one who is going out to fish,” he prayed. “Lord, we know that they need to be successful, they need to have a bountiful catch this year so that the rest of us can eat.

So, Lord, I ask that your hand be upon them, that you would guide them, that you would direct them, that there would be no mishaps whatsoever.”

Finally, Pastor Dan Mason of Pacific Coast Bible Church exhorted fishermen to not only seek blessings for themselves and the season, but to open their eyes to the greatest blessing ever — God’s gift of his son, Jesus.

Mason then not only prayed for the dorymen and for their upcoming fishing season, but lifted up a petition of thanks for the gift of Craig Wenrick and the difference he made during his lifetime.

“I want to thank you this afternoon for

Craig,” Mason prayed. “Lord, his fingerprints are all over at this event today. I thank you for the years that he has continually been there to shake my hand or give me a hug and greet me before we start this blessing.

Father, thank you for how he has affected this community. I want to lift up Susie and his family and ask that you would comfort them.

“And, Lord, for the dorymen that will be going out in this ocean, no doubt there is danger in that activity, and I just ask of you father God for a safe and fruitful season.”

Following his blessing, PCDA member Randy Haltiner credited Wenrick with being someone he could go to.

“Craig was my anchor,” he said. “He was the guy I always went to for support, supported me, put his hand on my back and my shoulder and he always was there. So, thanks Craig.”

The blessing continued with the ringing of the bell for dorymen and members of the community that died this past year, followed by the placing of flowers in the surf.

FRED JOHNSON restored this 100-year-old, 17-foot Whitehall (aka Edward) for Tillamook County resident Janet Stahl. The boat previously belonged to her late husband John Stahl and had been damaged when ropes holding it in a sling in their boathouse broke.

Raves for the Restoration

By SALLY RISSEL for the Sun

T

his story began with a phone call from Janet Stahl asking if I knew anyone who might be interested in restoring a 100-year-old wooden boat. One of the people I thought of was Fred Johnson, who I knew had built several small wooden boats here in Pacific City. Janet and Fred Johnson met, and the project began. The boat had great sentimental value to Janet, as it belonged to her late husband, John. She and John used the boat for duck hunting, crabbing, clamming and fishing on Netarts Bay. The boat is a 100-year-old, 17-foot Whitehall (aka Edward) and had been housed in the Stahl boat house on Netarts Bay. The ropes holding the craft in a sling had broken and fell on some large rocks, doing significant damage. Fred’s first challenge was getting it out of the water and to his workshop.

Truck inner tubes needed to be attached to the boat so they could float it to the Jacobson Salt dock and load it onto Fred’s trailer. The Whitehall needed a complete restoration —

more than just a repair. Restoration means using all the same materials as the original boat. Fred had to remove planks and broken ribs and then find the specific wood to match the broken pieces. Some of those woods were white oak, western red cedar, Alaskan yellow cedar, and Honduras mahogany.

There were months of measuring, cutting, steaming, sanding, and planing. Fred ordered copper square with roves and silicon bronze nails from Sweden to match the original nails. The recipe for the finish is pine tar, turpentine, linseed oil, and a Japanese dryer.

While replacing and refinishing the rear bench, he found a 1920 penny underneath the seat. It was a common practice when building a boat to add something to indicate the year it was built.

After more than seven months of labor, the craft is almost finished. Fred, who has built three other boats from the redwood planks discarded from the old Pacific City water tower, has met with the Astoria Maritime Museum. They may be interested in adding it to their collection. I hope we can find a way to display this labor of love and craftsmanship here in Pacific City.
