Brought to the community behind a partnership with Hart’s Camp, Cape Kiwanda RV Park, Headlands Coastal Lodge & Spa, and Inn at Cape Kiwanda, the first-ever event was billed as an attempt to give back to the community. It featured a wide range of vendors — from food and beverages to crafts and arts — as well as a pumpkin patch, live music and dory boat hay rides.
“The locals and leisure guests were really impressed with the event and (were) amazed by all the variety of vendors, food trucks and free amenities,” said Mark Dunn, general manager of Hart’s Camp and Cape Kiwanda RV Park. “The band was a big hit, and we probably had over 250 people on Saturday at 1 p.m.”
He added that many more visitors came and went over the three-day event, each enjoying fall-focused tastes and events like smores, hot cider, hot chocolate, face painting, pumpkin painting and more.
The companies involved do plan to bring the event back next year, but the exact date has yet to be agreed upon.
PUMPKIN PAINTING (above) and hay rides (below) were two more examples of the autumn-themed fun at the Pacific City Fall Festival.
SETTING THE TONE for an afternoon of fun on Saturday, Oct. 19 was the musical storytelling of Matt Mitchell’s band.

The Value of ‘Place’
Nestucca High theater students to perform ‘Our Place,’ Nov. 13-16.
By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun
Through a series of vignettes, theater goers will have a chance to look at the value special places have and the importance of sharing those places with others when Nestucca High School Theater Program performs “Our Place” in four November performances at Nestucca High School’s Pimentel Stage.
“Our Place,” an hour-long play written by Terry Gabbard in 2014, consists of five vignette mini stories set at a dock. Whether focusing on romance, a father stricken with Alzheimer’s, a coming of age story, or tragedy, each are impacted by the setting being a special place.
“It has a little bit of everything,” said Director CJ Hindman, who is bringing her 30 years of high school theater experience to the effort.
“Our Place” debuts with a matinee on Wednesday, Nov. 13 at 11 a.m. Evening performances will follow Nov. 14-16, each beginning at 7 p.m. Admission is $5. Seating is limited.
NESTUCCA HIGH SCHOOL theater students will perform “Our Place,” a vignette-style play, Nov. 13-16, at Nestucca High School. Tickets are $5. Pictured above (l-r) are: Lyssa Manzonie (Nicki), Mariah Aparicio (Brenda), Aiden Durgan (Al) and Naomi Hazeldine (Sherry) acting out the “Fantime” vignette.
Cast members are: Aiden Smith, Carly Cook, Ana Wehrley, Aiden Durgan, Ivy Thompson, Mariah Apapricio, Alyssa Manzonie, Naomi Hazeldine, Donovan Romero, Neri Tate Ramirez, Sophie Ogilvie and Evie Wharton.
Hindman says one thing she appreciates about the play is how relatable it is to so many people.
“I feel like that there’s something that everyone can relate to in terms of the stories told within the play,” she said.
“I feel like in our lives, we all have (a) place that (we can) go where (we) feel the most comfortable.”
OSU to study feeding seaweed to cattle
By SEAN NEALON Oregon State University
Oregon State University researchers have received a $1 million grant to study the impact of adding seaweed to the diets of beef cattle as a way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Recent research has found that feeding seaweed can reduce methane emissions from cattle, most of which originates from enteric fermentation that is characteristic of their digestive process.
Oregon State will investigate a specific type of seaweed —– Pacific dulse, a species grown commercially on the Oregon Coast — and focus on the effects of including this seaweed in diets of cattle that graze sagebrush steppe landscapes, a common ecosystem in the western United States.
“At a time of heightened public concern about greenhouse gas emissions, this project has the potential to help ranchers more sustainably and efficiently produce beef while also providing an economic benefit to seaweed producers,” said Juliana Ranches, project director and an assistant professor at Oregon State’s Eastern Oregon Agricultural Research Center in Burns, Oregon.
The five-year project is funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture National Institute of Food and Agriculture.
The agriculture sector accounts for 9.4% of greenhouse gas emissions in the U.S. with cattle being responsible for more than a quarter of the greenhouse gas emissions from the agricultural sector. The majority of that contribution comes from methane produced during enteric fermentation.
For the project, about 20 cows will graze each year in an approximately 100acre pasture at the Northern Great Basin
Experimental Range in Riley, Oregon, between Bend and Burns. They will wear GPS collars and be contained within a virtual fence.
The researchers will supplement the cattle feed with Pacific dulse grown along the Oregon Coast by a company called Oregon Seaweed. They will feed different amounts of dried dulse to the cattle to access the supplementation level that most suppresses enteric methane, which is emitted during the digestive process of cows.
“We will also be looking at the way the seaweed is grown and how that impacts the compounds of interest that contribute to methane reduction,” said James Fox, an algal physiologist in the Oregon State Department of Microbiology and coinvestigator of the project.
Fox will also work with colleagues at OSU-Cascades in Bend to study the impact seaweed supplementation has on bacteria in the cattle stomachs and how the bacteria may contribute to methane reduction.
Additionally, the researchers will use an atmospheric measurement tool called an Eddy Covariance Flux Tower to measure changes in carbon dioxide and methane levels in the pasture.
“Most of the research on seaweed feed supplementation for cattle has taken place in feedlots,” said Rory O’Connor, a rangeland ecologist with the U.S. Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service in Burns and co-director of the project. “Our work is novel because we are focused on cattle that graze in the sagebrush-steppe ecosystem.”
Partners on the project include Chuck Toombs, the founder and CEO of Oregon Seaweed, and the USDA Northwest Climate Hub.
“I really like the play,” cast member Ana Wehrely told the Sun. “I like how it’s a mix between a drama and a comedy and how it’s really about family values and where you belong.”
“I like that it’s five separate stories,” added Neri Tate Ramirez. “Each one of them is its own thing but like they all tie back to this central idea that everyone has this special place that they hold near and dear, and that place can be shared with a lot of people.”

Refining Their Skills
Nestucca Fire burns down two buildings near Beachy Bridge during practice burns
By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun
Practice might not make us perfect, but it sure helps move us along that path. And one organization that recognizes testing and improving skills in a real-world environment is the Nestucca Rural Fire Protection District, which recently completed two practice burns on vacant buildings in Pacific City.
The property where the structures once sat, which was deeded to Tillamook County as part of a deal that gave them ownership of the land between Pacific Avenue and Kiawanda Community Center, is slated to be a part of a reconfiguration of the intersection as part of the Kiwanda Corridor Plan. But for that, the old structures had to be removed. And that’s where NRFPD came in.
The practice burns were held on Saturday, Oct. 19, when an old two-story home was burned and Saturday, Oct. 26, when an apartment building behind the home was leveled. But, even before the blazes, NRPFD got some practice in. Over the summer, NRFPD Fire Chief James Oeder said volunteers were trained on the buildings on separate occasions and paid staff practiced on site during the week. He said it was an opportunity to practice skills such as window entries and ladder operation. And at the practice burns
themselves, the lessons learned continued. A total of 12 volunteers got in a combined estimated 72 hours of training at the two-story house on Oct. 19 and a total of 16 volunteers about 96 man hours on Oct. 26 at the four-plex. What’s more, it wasn’t just firefighting skills that were worked on. Oeder told the Sun that in addition to learning structural and interior firefighting, efforts were made to teach the volunteers support operations, running the fire engine’s pump, having medical teams use stretchers, and giving an opportunity to practice leadership skills.
“It was (all) aspects of different types of training that we were able to accomplish on these two days,” he said.
Oeder also said the practice burns helped build off of the weekly training the district does every Monday with volunteers when they do two hours of training with approximately 12 volunteers.

An Evening of Ecological Education
DeLany to share info on technology behind TEP’s restoration work at Watershed Council’s Nov. 6 Science on Tap event
An opportunity to learn about estuary restoration work while enjoying food and drink at Pelican Brewing’s Pacific City pub awaits Wednesday, Nov. 6, 6-8 p.m. when Nestucca, Neskowin and Sand Lake Watersheds Council hosts a “Science on Tap” event.
Featured at the event will be Flynn DeLany, field and data scientist for Tillamook Estuaries Partnership. Delany will speak on technology behind restoration TEP does throughout Tillamook County.
DeLany earned his B.S. in Marine Sciences from Stony Brook University, followed by his Master of Science degree in Marine Sciences from the same institution. During his graduate studies, he focused his research on the restoration potentials of eelgrass and oysters, investigating their local impacts on inhabitant community structures. As a graduate researcher, he collaborated with multiple local partners around the estuaries of Long Island, New York to monitor and restore crucial species and habitats, including hard clams, oysters, and
continued from page 6
“Even with our 10 small containers that we can burn in, we can’t simulate what they encounter in live fire burns. (In a live fire burn, they learn) how a fire progresses and grows and how gases react when fire gets at its ignition point. That’s really hard to simulate in Monday night drill with what we have for training props.
“(In an exercise like these two practice burns), we can teach them a lot more on fire behavior, how it works and different attack methods. That’s where the big difference is in these two types of training.”
Oeder said the experience was particularly valuable for getting new recruits up to speed as well as honing those volunteers with considerable experience under their belt. He said full-time staff helped facilitate this training by serving as instructors for newer volunteers during the interior firefighting exercises.
“(Volunteers) were able to build on skills they already have,” he said. “It was useful as a refresher (to) keep (volunteers) on top of their game and to continue honing their skills. To me, if you don’t do it (regularly), you get rusty on what you’re supposed to be doing.”
Historically, getting in extra training has been important as, in a typical year, Nestucca Fire responds to a limited number of blazes. Though that has been less true this year with NRFPD going out on eight structure fires, four vehicle fires, six garbage fires, and 10 classified as other — plus also helping out on 11 mutual aid calls
eelgrasses. In 2023, Flynn embarked on a new chapter in his career by relocating to the Oregon Coast to join the Tillamook Estuaries Partnership. There, he continues his work in monitoring efforts, contributing to the conservation and preservation of the region’s ecosystems.

with either North Lincoln Fire and Rescue or Tillamook Fire Department.
One thing in particular that crews were able to work on is recognizing different colors of smoke and what that means for any firefighting effort.
“There’s always room for improvement,” Oeder added about the training exercise. “Even with the fires that go just as perfect as you can ask for, there’s little things you can train on and improve your skills. The bottom line is — whether it’s a training exercise or an actual call, we can always learn from every (rescue event).”
In recognition of the need for live fire training such as these two structures provided, Oeder said the district is currently researching building a practice facility on their Hebo property where their main fire hall and administrative center sits. Though such a structure typically costs $250,000 and up, he told the Sun the district is researching the possibility of using approved plans that call for containers to be used in construction. Using what he described as rough figures, he estimated that using that method, an approved structure may only cost $6,000.
“We have a graveled area out behind our station that has been there quite awhile (where) we’ve done some extrication (training when) tow companies have brought us vehicles,” he said.
