THE BLESSING OF THE FLEET, set for June 6 at Cape Kiwanda, will feature prayers and blessings for fishermen by local clergy, as well as performances by trumpet player Johnny Zell and electric violinist Erin Winesburgh.

quarter century after the first Reach the Beach bicycle ride, the American Lung Association in Oregon’s largest annual fundraiser, the trek from the valley to the coast is still going strong. Its 25th rendition, which finished in Pacific City on Saturday, May 16, set records both in number of riders participating and in total receipts as 3,000 riders pedaled to Cape Kiwanda from one of four locations — Grand Ronde, Amity, Newberg, and Portland — at distances ranging from 28 to 104 miles. The first rider crossed the finish line at 11:30 a.m. and riders were still rolling in when they officially shut down the course and began collecting ride bibs at 5 p.m. Still, riders were allowed to finish as late as 6 p.m. Though at press time all receipts had yet to come in, ALAO director of development Brian Mayo told the Sun that the total received — including registration fees, sponsorships, fundraising and merchandise sales — has already surpassed $800,000 with June 1 the deadline for all fundraising submissions. After expenses, Mayo expects about 68 to 71 percent of the $800,000 to be available for ALAO’s mission of improving lung health and preventing lung disease. “It was a fantastic 25th anniversary for the ride,” said Mayo. “It was a record year for us.” The top fundraising rider this year was Kathy Landers, who at press time had raised $9,178. Mayo said the Vancouver, Wash. resident had a big heart for the mission of ALAO as her husband passed away from lung cancer last December. “We had a lot of people that had a deep connection with our mission,” added Mayo. “They (all) wanted to be our top fundraiser and have that honor.” He credited an increased marketing effort as well as excitement for the event’s 25th annual ride for the larger fundraising number this year. “There was a lot of enthusiasm by past riders — and new riders as well — from the year prior,” said Mayo. “We had such a fantastic ride in 2014 that the momentum carried forward to this year. People look forward to this event yearround. (They love) having the chance to go to Pacific City and be at the beach. People come from all different states to come experience it. It’s just a wonderful atmosphere and having a finish line that’s located at Pelican Pub on the beach, you couldn’t ask for a more beautiful finishing location.”

THE 2015 RENDITION of Reach the Beach, held Saturday, May 16, attracted 3,000 bicyclists to the popular ride from the several Willamette Valley starting spots to Cape Kiwanda. The 25th anniversary ride set a new record with more than $800,000 received in total — including registration fees, sponsorships, fundraising and merchandise sales. Of that total, 68 to 71 percent is expected to be available for the American Lung Association in Oregon’s mission of improving lung health and preventing lung disease.

Chamber

Spotlight

Taking Care of the Cyclists By VERNE MOBLEY Have you seen any expensive bicycles lately?? Chamber and Lions volunteers certainly have. On May 16, the American Lung Association in Oregon’s “Reach the Beach” event happened during which something over 3,000 cyclists pedaled from as far as Portland to our beautiful Pacific City. They started arriving around 11:30 a.m. and rolled in until after 6 p.m. Chamber members working were Merrianne Hoffman (our president), Jacie Voegeli, Tara Thayer, Charles Helbig, Dave Yamamoto, Gene and Sue Johnson, Susan Amort, Jeff Owen, Ann and Richard Potempa, Allan and Marilyn Jio, Susanne Johnson, and our illustrious leader Jeremy Strober, who was there all day really keeping us doing it right. Also there all day were Jeremy’s kids — Gus, Cole and Rachel. All three kids kept Jeremy doing it right, too!!!! It makes a difference to us volunteers when we are thanked, and hundreds of cyclists said “Thank you,” “Good Job,” “Best hosts ever,” “You are happy doing this,” and “Hope you are here next year!!” Thanks bikers for thanking us!! If you’ve visited Cloverdale recently you’ve seen lots of activity going on. The community’s newest business is Candelaria’s Taquieria, and the food is good! Congratulations Maria, Jessica, David, and Enrique Ponce. Also, the store fronts on both sides of Highway 101 area looking great, thanks to Tom Goodwin, the Hale family and their very able helpers!! We hope you will all join the Chamber soon, and come tell us about your businesses. Are you ready to join the chamber? Please talk to any chamber member to join, or visit www.pcnvchamber.org for more information. Our next meeting is Tuesday, June 2, at the Pelican Pub at 12 p.m. Our guest speaker this year is Miss Tillamook County Rodeo Association for 2015, Sarah Hammond. Come and meet the Rodeo Queen!

crowd of approximately 225 community members gathered on May 24 to celebrate the community acquisition of the Neskowin Beach Golf Course, a move that is still in the works and is dependent on financial support from the community. As part of the financial agreement between current owner Tom Clark and the Neskowin Beach Golf Board, a down payment of more than $309,850 must be paid between now and Oct. 15. The course is currently being operated by the nonprofit under a lease agreement with Clark.

An Attitude of Inclusion Dorymen’s Association declines to support navigational safety zone that could ban surfers from part of Cape By GRETCHEN AMMERMAN for the Sun

Watershed Council, State Parks team up for Whalen Island clean-up effort The Nestucca, Neskowin and Sand Lake Watershed Council is joining forces with Oregon State Parks on June 6 to celebrate “State Parks Day” with a cleanup effort at Whalen Island. The two agencies are inviting the public to join them from 9 a.m. to noon for a Scotch Broom Cleanup at Whalen Island where the invasive species is threatening what organizers say is one of the most untouched dune areas in Oregon. The effort is a follow-up to an effort in 2014, when 10 volunteers helped to

clear about two acres in the area. “We want to finish the job this year,” said council coordinator Alex Sifford. Volunteers should beet at Clay Myers State Natural Area, starting at 9 a.m. and are encouraged to bring gloves and loppers. A barbecue lunch and refreshments will be provided by the Hebo Stewardship Group.

“Service Even After The Sale”

t the semi-annual meeting of the Pacific City Doryman’s Association on May 23, the general membership voted to support the decision made by the board not to endorse the proposed “Navigation Safety Zone” currently being considered by the Oregon State Marine Board that would bar surfers from the south side of Cape Kiwanda during times of dory boat use. The PCDA board summarized their position in a statement that was presented to the members. “We went back into our minutes and looked at decisions that had been made throughout the year at board meetings and at the general membership,” said co-chair Craig Wenrick. “The statement that we came up with we think reflects what our vision statement is and what our position has always been on this issue.” The statement, which the board voted 11-1 to approve, reads: “The Pacific City Doryman’s Association has never proposed nor supported restricting access to any user group at Cape Kiwanda. In more than 100 years of dory launching and landings, less than four fatalities have occurred, making it one of the safest ports in Oregon, and in more than 50 years sharing the area with surfers, there has only been one serious accident. We have chosen to work in collaboration with the surfing community, the Oregon State Marine Board, Oregon State Parks,

Oregon State Police, United States Coast Guard, Nestucca Rural Fire Protection District, and the Tillamook County Sheriff’s Department to educate all user groups to provide for a safer Cape Kiwanda. The Board of Directors will again review current safety measures and may propose additional concepts.” The general membership voted to support the statement with about a twothirds majority; however, after some discussion, it was decided to remove the second sentence, which includes statements about the number of fatalities or serious accidents, as it is misleading. For example, one of the fatalities was the result of a heart attack, and not an accident resulting from the mix of user groups at the Cape. The board and the association members in attendance agreed that something does need to be done, however, as the crowds continue to increase at Cape Kiwanda. “We do not want to put our names on this petition as an organization,” said Wenrick. “But we are open to exploring other solutions. We have just worked hard to foster relationships with other groups, and we don’t want to endanger that.” Members were encouraged to send individual comments to the Marine Board. Comments are being accepted until 5 p.m. on June 3. To view the petition, visit www.oregon/OSMB/Pages/ admin/OSMB_Rulemaking_Newpage. aspx, or call June LeTarte at 503-3782617.

A Chorus of Blessings

Dorymen to be honored during June 6 ‘Blessing of the Fleet’ ceremony By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun

ongs of praise and words of encouragement will ring out on Saturday, June 6 when the dory fleet of Pacific City will gather with the community on the beach at Cape Kiwanda to honor the current fishing season with song, prayer and fond remembrances. Dories, which traditionally line up on the sand north of the ramp to the beach, are expected to arrive by 11:30 a.m., giving a chance for visitors to check out their vessels and gear and visit with ship captains before gathering at noon for prayers, music and the customary reading of names of those dorymen and family members who have passed in the last year. During this Pacific City Dorymen’s Association sponsored event, dorymen will load their crafts with flowers and lay them on the waters around Haystack Rock in memory of those that have gone before them (if ocean conditions permit). The ceremony will start when high school senior Erin Winesburgh performs the National Anthem with eighthgrade student Jessica Bailey. Playing her electric violin, Winesburgh will also play two other numbers — God Bless America and Amazing Grace — during the ceremony. And as has become tradition, the musical tribute to the dory fleet will also feature trumpet player Johnny Zell, formerly of the Lawrence Welk Show. Nestucca High School band director Kathleen Serven, together with a number of her students, is also expected to perform. Organized by dory boat builder Terry Learned, this year’s festivities will also include prayers of blessings from four local clergy members including Randy Winesburgh (Cloverdale Baptist Church), Dan Mason (Pacific Coast Bible Church), Lou Chandler (retired Army chaplain and member of Nestucca Valley Presbyterian Church) and James Dieringer (retired Catholic priest and

“It’s also a time to remember those that have passed on before us that were a part the fleet.” Learned said that whether you own and operate a dory or not, the event is a good opportunity for the community to show their support and appreciation for the sport. “It just makes you feel good that the community wants to be there and see what we’re doing,” he said. “It’s great to see the community come out and support it.” The Association also plans to introduce to the community this year’s Dory Days princesses — Princess Ayla June Sunrise Shook and Junior Princess Meredith Rose Manning — and the event’s grand marshal: Rob Royster.

ince 2006 when Verne and Pat Mobley traded their Eastern Oregon farm for retirement life in South Tillamook County, the dynamic duo has made their presence felt through a variety of community-minded service and friendly assistance. It’s that commitment to the community that will be rewarded on July 3 when the couple will serve as grand marshals for the Clover’s Day Parade. It will be the third time the couple has served as parade grand marshals. During their tenure farming in Eastern Oregon, they were selected for the honor at both Shaniko Days and the Sherman County Fair. The couple met in 1960 at the Spray Rodeo where Verne was a calf roper competitor. A year later they got married, eventually teaming up to run a 12,000-acre cattle and wheat ranch in Sherman and Waco Counties, Ore. for nearly 40 years. It was there that Verne also helped form a grazing association in 1969. Verne’s community service includes 30 years on the National Farm Bureau, 10 years as a livestock leader for 4-H, four years as a school board member, 20 years with the Wasco County Cattlemen’s Association, six years in the National Guard, and 30-plus years as a Lions Club member while Pat has contributed to community by serving as a teacher’s aide at Kent Elementary School, served as president of an Oregon State University Home Extension

Office homemaker’s club, and was a 4-H leader for 10 years. She also worked as a Postmaster in Shaniko. And they didn’t rest on their laurels when “retiring” at the coast. Both joined the Nestucca Valley Lions Club in 2006 where Verne served two terms as president while Pat spent a year volunteering at the Kiawanda Community Center and a couple of years volunteering with the Start Making A Reader Today program. One of Verne’s highest profile contributions — on both sides of the state — is his talent with a microphone. He operated his own auctioneering firm for 20 years, and, while he no longer runs that enterprise, he does find time to donate his skills to benefit events such as the Pacific City-Nestucca Valley Chamber of Commerce’s annual Awards Dinner and Auction gala. Both Pat and Verne are also accomplished musicians, and together with Verne’s brother Don started their own country music band in 1965, playing in a variety of grange halls and even once in awhile doing “honkey tonks” in different local bars. They also shared their love of music with their two sons, who were eager to join the band. “I always like to tell people that we always knew where our kids were on Friday and Saturday nights,” he said. “One was right between us and the other right behind us.” In addition to a downtown parade, the July 3 Clover’s Day celebration will include music by Countryfied, led by Mark Mobley, buggy rides, and kids’ games that will include a bouncy house and face painting.

NEWS&COMMUNITY Residents can help ‘Flush Away Cancer’ Have you seen the Purple Potty around town? Team Looney Tunes is kicking off their “Flush Away Cancer” fundraiser for the American Cancer Society by sending “Potty Grams” to local South County residents. All proceeds will benefit Tillamook County Relay for Life. This fundraiser is being hailed as one of the fun ways to greet a friend and challenge them as well. Those that find the Potty Gram “popping” up on their lawn can take a few steps to relieve themselves of the fixture. For a donation of $15, the Potty is taken away, for $20 the Potty is taken away and relocated to the place of choice, and for $25, the Potty will be relocated, and no one can “return” the potty to you.

NEWS&COMMUNITY Community park, skatepark plans presented By ADAM WEHRLEY for the Sun

ommunity members and volunteers from the Nestucca Valley Community Alliance gathered Sunday afternoon, May 24, to discuss plans for a community park in Pacific City, southeast of Cape Kiwanda at 33395 Cape Kiwanda Drive. For this third of three open-house meetings, landscape architect, Jeff Creel, of Harper Houf Peterson Righellis Inc., presented two designs featuring a skate park, interpretive center and covered play area as major components. NVCA used surveys to identify the covered play area and skate park as community priorities. Both proposed plans add 60 parking spaces for park users and to help alleviate parking congestion in the area. An additional five spaces will be reserved for hikers using a trailhead to access Bureau of Land Management land east of the park. Other planned features include: paths, restrooms, volleyball courts, dory-

themed playground equipment, fitness equipment, barbecue and picnic areas, horseshoe pits, amphitheater and native plant garden. Creel explained building stages, starting with parking and finishing with the interpretive center. Some in attendance expressed concerns over increased traffic generated by the skatepark and asked if another location was possible. NVCA board member Amanda Graves explained that in 12 years of planning for a park, other land had not been found. The two-acre park is planned for property leased from Tillamook Light Wave for $10 each year for 49 years. The park is completely fenced and will be locked at night. Funding specifically for the skate park has included financial donations from the Cape Kiwanda Longboard Classic. NVCA is seeking funding through donations and grants. There will also be a fundraiser on June 13 at the Oarhouse featuring the music of Lunker. Further information on NVCA’s programs and park fundraising efforts can be found at www.nestucca.org.

Beware of Giant Hogweed Prevent the Spread of this Dangerous Toxic Weed in Tillamook County

Build It. Plumb it. Wire it. Paint it. CCB #171850

We Deliver County Wide!

2 N. Main, Tillamook, OR 503.842-4434 www.rbslumber.com

Who:

Tillamook County Soil and Water Conservation District

What:

Surveying for Giant Hogweed and other Invasive Weeds, Please contact us to report weeds you are concerned about

When:

This Summer (June-August)

Where:

Tillamook County coastal communities of Nehalem, Manzanita, Brighton, Manhattan Beach, Pacific City, and Neskowin (and any other sightings)

Why:

Because invasive weeds can damage the lands and waters we all need to survive, it’s best to focus on controlling invasive plant infestations while their distribution is limited and patches are small.

If you find Giant Hogweed: • Avoid all unnecessary contact with giant hogweed. People who must handle this plant should prevent skin contact by wearing protective clothing such as gloves, long sleeves, long pants, hats, and protective eyewear. • Persons whose skin comes in contact with the sap should wash immediately with soap and cold water (hot water promotes absorption), avoid direct sunlight and consult their healthcare provider. • Keep children away from live or dead giant hogweed plants. • Report suspect sites to Tillamook Soil & Water Conservation District (503-8422848, ext. 110), the Oregon Department of Agriculture Noxious Weed Control Program (503-986-4621), or call 1-866-INVADER

Lack of precipitation leaves fishermen high and dry By PAT GEFRE for the Sun

till no rain and none in the foreseeable future. That doesn’t bode well for any of the North Coast fisheries, especially spring chinooks. Something is not making sense here, for one, the Rose Festival is just around the corner and it always rains on the Rose Parade and the Fun Center. It just wouldn’t be the Rose Festival if you weren’t tromping around in the mud and ruining all the grass. Normally, the City of Portland has to truck in loads of sand and sawdust just to keep folks from being knee deep in mud at the fun center. I have many relatives that are wheat farmers in Eastern Oregon, notably the Condon, Oregon area, and they depend on June rains for their wheat crops. No rain, not much in the way of wheat crops. They even have a name for it — they call it the June Photo courtesy of Pat Gefre equinox.

Dedicated to the Community Public service veteran Ron Sturdevant has given his life to the communities he’s lived in, first through a 29-year career with the Portland Police Bureau and now as a volunteer serving Nestucca Fire Rural Protection District. The Pacific City resident first got involved with the district at the insistence of a friend. In December 2005, after retiring from police service in 2002, he began serving the district, a move that he says has fit perfectly with his desire to serve the public. “It kind of fits,” he says. “It’s a public service type of effort. I feel like I’m making a contribution to PACIFIC CITY RESIDENT Ron the community.” Sturdevant has been putting His nearly 10-year tenure as a his 29 years of police service Nestucca Fire volunteer illustrates experience to good work as the district’s ability to work with a member of the volunteer volunteers that aren’t in the area force at Nestucca Rural Fire year round.

Pacific City. “I’m not here 12 months a year, but all the time I am here, I respond on calls. I do some online training while I’m gone to keep up with a few things.” Trained as both a firefighter and first responder, he says his 24 years experience as a detective developed solid supervisory experience, a skill that has helped him serve as a lieutenant at Station 82 in Pacific City, a post he has held since January 2008. His police experience has been an asset to the district in other ways, too. “With a lot of police work, you have to make quick decisions that is many times based on limited information,” he says. “We do much the same with the fire district here.” Though he recognizes it is a significant time commitment as volunteers are required to attend weekly training sessions every Monday night (except holidays), it is a commitment that pays dividends. “There’s some personal satisfaction to it,” he says. “There’s a rewarding feeling you get from helping others.” Though he understands the difficulty in attracting new volunteers because of the time investment required, he said that a bolstered volunteer force would be a great asset to the district. “Currently, we feel a greater need to respond to all calls,” he said. “If there were more volunteers throughout the district, (those living on the south end) wouldn’t have to respond to calls on the north (and vice versa).”

Lions

on the

Loose

Here for the Community By VERNE MOBLEY Lions Club President

Our Nestucca Valley Lions are living by our motto — “We Serve” — especially well these days. The Lions and the Pacific City-Nestucca Valley Chamber of Commerce really welcomed the “Reach the Beach” bicycle event. We had fun doing this, and the bikers thanked us over and over. Lions volunteering were Sandy Hanneman, Corrine Peratore, Teresa Smith, Verne and Pat Mobley, and Lion Corrine’s good friend Monica, who probably installed over 1,000 “bicycle seat covers.” Good Job, Monica!! You will be a great Lion!! Several Nestucca Lions are headed to Seaside for the state convention this weekend. More on that next time. The Tillamook Rodeo is coming up June 27 & 28. It’s our first Elephant Ears event of the year. Lion Brian Moore is our chief “ear maker” since taking over for Lion Jim Dierenger. We visualize Lion Brian at the rodeo wearing a “ten-gallon hat,” cowboy boots, and a pair of cowboy chaps. Yeee Haw!! Lions are busy with almost last minute plans for Clover’s Day, July 3rd. Remember the date: July 3rd for a great start of the weekend. It’s great to be a Lion! Talk to any Lion about membership. My new number at Lion Pat’s and my new residence near Neskowin is 971-2570200. Paid Advertisement

His book” Just As” will be on sale and he will autograph copies for purchasers and for anyone who brings a copy to the event. Light refreshments will be served during the free event. Jortner says his poems express, intimately and honestly, his perspectives on subjects as varied as aging and death, love and sex, being a widower, moods and dreams, people-watching, philosophy of life, the act of writing, and his dog. Of the 118 poems in the book, the majority occupy one page or less, some are as brief as haiku, and some develop over several pages.

Staging a Trip from the Past By SALLY RISSEL for the Sun

he Tillamook County Historical Society is once again offering a trip on the Trask River Toll Road, which was once the travel route through the Coast Range between Tillamook and the Willamette Valley. Tour participants will meet at the Tillamook County Fairgrounds parking lot for information and instruction about 8:30 a.m. on Tuesday, June 9 and depart at 9 a.m. The first stop will be at the Trask River Park where there are rest rooms and time for more information. The free trip will take about 3 hours. Construction of the road started around 1870 and the first stage line using the road began operation in 1872. Operation ceased in December 1911, when the railroad became the main means of transportation to Tillamook. The stage made two trips daily. The trip took two days to reach Tillamook. The stage carried passengers and mail. The stages ran daily except on Sundays and the price was $3.50 per person. There were other freight wagons that brought in needed supplies. The route included many steep grades. To keep the wagon from overrunning the horse, some drivers would put a pole through the back wheels to have them slide down the hill. It was a 45-mile trip and often described by many as “the most awful ride in the world.” This year it will be a modified trip, as we are not able to cross over Weyerhaeuser land into Yamhill. We will travel on gravel State Forest land roads to the site of Murphy Camp. The original Trask Toll Road crisscrosses along the road we will be on. Those participating will

get a first-hand experience for how difficult this trip was by horse and stage coach. Now the road is gravel, and the weather should be perfect. The stagecoach traveled through all kinds of conditions — mud, storms, fallen trees, summer dust and snow. Murphy Camp has lots of interesting history. It was a railroad logging camp of the Murphy Timber Co. Logs were taken from there by steam engines to a mill in Carlton. Later, it was a State Forestry side camp for fire suppression After leaving Murphy Camp, the Historical Societyled trip will traverse though the forest to the East Fork Road and pass the site of the Trask House where, in the past, passengers would spend the night before continuing their journey. That road will connect with the Trask River Road again, for a return to Tillamook. There has been quite a caravan of cars in the past, so this tour will be traveling at about 15-20 mph. Carpooling will help keep our numbers down and it is more fun to share information along the way with your passengers. The roads are maintained and graveled. A medium clearance car should be able to make the trip with no difficulty. The trip is free but the Historical Society is accepting donations. Better yet, attendees can join the Tillamook County Historical Society for only $10 per year. The Tillamook County Pioneer Museum has one of the stage coaches in their collection in the basement. Two books that can give you a wonderful feeling for the area and the stagecoach journey are: “From Yamhill to Tillamook by Stagecoach” by Ruth Stoller and “Homestead on the Trask” by Harvey Maddux.

Triumphant in Australia Pelican Brewing Co. honored as ‘Champion Medium International Brewery’ at Australian Int’l Beer Awards

elican Brewing Company was recently honored as the “Champion Medium International Brewery” at the 2015 Australian International Beer Awards, held Thursday, May 21 in Melbourne, Australia. The award comes two years after Pelican expanded their brewing capabilities to their new facilities in Tillamook and just three years removed from when Pelican Pub & Brewery came away with the 2012 Champion Small International Brewery at the same award ceremony. The Champion Medium International Brewery is awarded based on a total of points scored by beers entered into the contest. For their part, Pelican brews received seven medals in the 2015 competition including a gold medal for MacPelican’s Scottish Ale in the British Style Ale category. Other 2015 awards were silver awards for Stormwatcher’s Winterfest (Scotch Ale category), Mother of All Storms (Wood Aged Ales), Doryman’s Ale (Brown Ale), Silverspot IPA (British Style IPA), Tsunami Stout (Stout category); and bronze medals for Imperial Pelican Ale (Imperial/Double IPA), and Umbrella

IPA (India Pale Ale). “This was a really fantastic surprise,” said Darron Welch, brewmaster at Pelican Brewing Company. “You always hope for the best when you enter competitions like this, but to be recognized by our peers at an international level at the AIBA is really exciting and we couldn’t be more honored.” The 2015 AIBA, conducted by The Royal Agricultural Society of Victoria, attracted a record number of entries with more than 1,700 submissions from 344 exhibitors, across 35 countries received. The AIBA is the largest annual competition of its kind in the world judging both draught and packaged beer. Pelican Brewing Company was founded in 1996 by Jeff Schons, and Mary Jones in Pacific City and is Oregon’s only oceanfront brewpub. With the vision and brewing expertise of Brewmaster Darron Welch, Pelican Brewing has won more than 300 awards in that span of time including most recently the 2014 World Beer Cup© Champion Small Brewing Company and Brewmaster of the Year.

Ending On an Upswing Nestucca slams door on losing streak in season finale By GRETCHEN AMMERMAN for the Sun

KYCIE RICHWINE hurdled her way to first place during the May 22 State Track and Field Championship. Richwine placed first in 100m hurdles, while Drace Moeller took a first place in shot put and Brett Elder in discus. During the Northwest District Track and Field Championships on May 15 & 16, Nestucca High School’s boys’ and girls’ teams both took home first place.

Bobcats Tops in District Nestucca earns Northwest District Track and Field Championship By GRETCHEN AMMERMAN for the Sun

estucca once again proved to be the team to beat at the Northwest District Track and Field Championship on May 15 and 16, with the girls’ and boys’ teams taking first on both days of the competition and securing places at the State District Championship for some of the team’s top performing athletes. “We have some pretty outstanding athletes, but it’s a team effort,” said head coach John Elder. “Our goal is always to win districts and to do that everyone has to contribute.” Watching his team win districts is something Coach Elder is quite used to. “I think we’ve won 25 district championships,” he said. “Our girls are very strong in the distance events and the hurdles; for the boys it’s the throwing events and the hurdles.” In a repeat performance from last year’s State Championships, three Nestucca athletes took first place at the 2015 event which took

he Nestucca Bobcats finished the baseball season on a high note, winning the final game of a May 14 doubleheader against Faith Bible by a score of 6-3, and ending a losing streak that had plagued the team since mid-April. The team’s final games for the month of May started with a double header against Gaston on Friday, May 1, where they lost 3-15 in the first game and 0-20 in the second. They were then overcome by Portland Lutheran/Portland Waldorf in three games: losing 1-8 on May 5 and both ends of a doubleheader on May 8 (111 and 3-12). Still,f head coach Jim Kiser says the scores don’t tell the whole story. “Even though they didn’t win many games, they competed pretty well,” he said. “They didn’t lay down for anyone, which is nice to see.” The final showdown of the season featured the Bobcats vs. the Faith Bible

place on May 22: Drace Moeller in shot put, Brett Elder in discus, and Kycie Richwine in the 100m hurdles. Moeller also took ninth in discus, Elder second in shot put and javelin, and Richwine fifth in the 300m hurdles and third in pole vault. Other athletes that took home prizes in the top 10 at “States” were Wyatt McKillip, who placed sixth in the 110m hurdles, Sean McColly, sixth in the 330m hurdles, and Ryan Leslie, seventh in the pole vault. On the women’s team, Monica Chatelain was seventh in discus and second in javelin, sister Tea Chatelain was sixth in the 400 meters, Courtney Ahn was 10th in the 3000 meters, Jaykala Jackson was fourth in the 100m hurdles and seventh in the 300m hurdles, Mia Dorsey was ninth in shot put, and Willow Wood was 10th in the triple jump. The women’s relay teams also came home with hardware; in the 4x100, the team of Katie Reeder, Alyssa Morgan, Tea Chatelain, and Richwine were eighth, and in the 4x400, Monica Chatelian, Morgan, Ahn, and Tea Chatelian finished ninth.

Falcons on two separate occasions. The series started rough for Nestucca as the Bobcats dropped a May 12 contest by a score of 2-8. “We played pretty well and had four or five good innings,” Kiser said after the game. “We just had that bad inning or two where we made some mistakes, dropped some fly balls, and allowed them to score four runs in one inning. In a competitive game, that allows them to take it from us.” At the final double header on Thursday, May 14, the team suffered another loss in the first game, 1-10, but then came back to outrun Faith Bible for the season ending game. Coach Kiser thinks that the lessons learned this year will translate into a more winning season next year. “Hopefully most of these kids will be coming back,” he said. “We have quite a bit of talent, it’s just that this year they were a bit overmatched. But in the years to come they should be able to be pretty competitive.”
