Walk-in clinic off to a great start The new walk-in clinic at Lower Umpqua Hospital is a hit.

So much so that the hospital will expand it and place it inside the hospital building, moving it from its current location next to Reedsport Medical Clinic.

The district board heard a report at its Sept. 24 meeting.

Hospital administrator Sandra Reese says the current location, inside a specialty clinic, needs to be changed.

“We have specialists who want to expand their time over at Reedsport Medical Clinic and there are no days available because we’re booked full,” she said. “To free up space, we will be moving the walkin clinic over to the hospital.”

That should happen fairly quickly.

“The project will be done internally by our own plant operations staff,” Reese said, “and they’re planning to start on it by the end of October. It should be done by the end of December.”

The hospital is freeing up space on the bottom level of the hospital, taking up some of the administrative space.

“We’re just going to get more petite,” she laughed. “We will be rolling off several areas of the current administration areas and we still will be able to have public relations, director of nurses, the CFO and my offices.

“It’ll just be a smaller space.”

An administrative conference room will be moved to another area of the hospital.

Reese said this all comes as the walk-in clinic gains popularity and more specialists want to drive to

Sanitary board criticizes DEQ over 2009 loan The Gardiner Sanitary District board looked a Department of Environmental Quality official in the eye and said the district does not have the money to pay a 2009 loan of $215,000 for a study of a wastewater treatment lagoon on the International Paper property.

Some board members said the DEQ had no business making the Photo by Steve Lindsley, The Umpqua Post loan to a previous board, based on The Gardiner Sanitary District board is, left to right, Richard Nored, Ray proposed development that never Potter, Ed Cook, Susanna Noordhoff and Mack Holman.

told Keith Andersen, the western district administrator for the DEQ, district ratepayers don’t have the money to pay the five-year loan.

“That loan alone is $34 a month for every resident or hookup,” Nored said. “Where are your financial people, thinking they were going to raise rates $34 to cover a loan for something that ended up with no benefit to the district.”

“When the application for this loan came in 2009,” Andersen

Council to discuss pot, flood maps The Reedsport City Council will have flood maps and marijuana on its mind when it meets Monday, Oct. 6.

The council will hold a work session at 6 p.m. to hear a presentation from the Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries and the Federal Emergency Management Agency on mapping.

The regular meeting will begin at 7 p.m. in council chambers.

On the agenda, under general business, is to decide whether the city should move forward with DOGAMI/FEMA flood-plain mapping.

The council will also consider an ordinance granting a nonexclusive telecommunications franchise to Coastcom Inc. The council also will consider an ordinance establishing a tax on the sale of marijuana and marijuana-infused products.

The city currently has a moratorium excluding medical marijuana dispensaries in the city, but that moratorium will expire next year and a November ballot measure, if it’s passed, would allow recreational use of pot in the state.

The council will also hold an executive session regarding current litigation or litigation likely to be filed and to review and evaluate the employmentrelated performance of the chief executive officer.

The Reedsport Charter High School cheerleading team is back this year. One of their school duties included cheering at the football game Friday night against Santiam High School on Ruppe Field.

Cheerleaders make triumphant return

BY STEVE LINDSLEY THE UMPQUA POST A familiar sight was back on the sidelines Friday, Sept. 26, as cheerleaders returned to Reedsport Community Charter School. The former squad disbanded late last year when the advisor was asked to resign after a dispute between members of the squad, parents and the for-

mer advisor. Cheerleaders did not return for the rest of the 2013-2014 school year.

This year, there’s a new advisor: Mercedes Long.

“I became the team’s advisor because I was asked to by one of the girls,” Long told The Umpqua Post. “They wanted to cheer but had no coach to do so.”

Long says they’re trying to get past last year.

“Last year’s turmoil does come up every so often,” she said, “usually the new girls asking what exactly happened. My response being ‘the past is the past — we’re here today planning for tomorrow ... it’s a new year and a new squad, It’s not healthy to keep the negativity of what happened last year around this year. ‘” The team has been working

together since the summer, even working fundraisers together.

“My girls are more like a family than a squad,” Long observed, “each bringing something special to the group. Their enthusiasm is superb. They are always looking forward to practice and they love to learn new things. Each of the girls is unique in her own way.

GSD asks for reporting, maintenance help THE UMPQUA POST The new Gardiner Sanitary District Board may ask the city of Reedsport to assist in more areas.

The city already provides water to Gardiner, treats wastewater from the Gardiner district and will soon begin billing Gardiner sanitary customers.

The discussion came at a Sept.

24 meeting of the GSD. “They wanted two things,” Reedsport City Manager Jonathan Wright said. “One was they wanted an hourly rate for the maintenance and reporting requirements to DEQ (Department of Environmental Quality) for their collection system.”

The second item was the city providing a “menu” of choices.

“If they said this month we’d really like to invest $2,000 in cleaning of our lines, then we would come over and spend however many hours $2,000 was, according to whatever that set schedule cost was,” Wright explained.

At the meeting, Wright tried to clarify what the district needed.

“I, respectfully, request we don’t call this a proposal for serv-

Reedsport levee passes inspection It was the big inspection Reedsport will need to certify the city’s levee, but it was a routine inspection to make sure the levee is up to requirements.

“The Reedsport levee system, “ Jason McBain, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Portland District levee safety program manager, said, “as far as the Corps is concerned, is part of our rehabilitation and inspection program.”

That program allows for a yearly inspection. Budget constraints, McBain said, may stretch that out to every two years.

“We, basically, make sure that ... they’re taking care of the levee,” he said of the city of Reedsport, “maintaining it, repairing any little things that need to be fixed and taking care of the day-today operations so that they can ensure that the levee is going to provide its intended purpose for the people within the leveed area.”

The inspector was Brian Zabel.

“What Brian was doing,” McBain explained, “ is walking the levee ... he’s going along and making sure that, essentially, they’re taking care of the levee.

Reedsport is trying to enter a process where the levee can be certified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency to help reduce rates through the National Flood Insurance Program.

McBain said the levee, at one time, was built or improved by the Corps.

“Most of the levees in our district, the Corps came in and either ... built new ones or improved these existing structures,” he said, “and then we turned them over to sponsors.”

The city of Reedsport is the sponsor of the levee.

He said the operation and

“We will come through and make sure they’re fulfilling those duties,” McBain said. “If they are, if they’re taking care of their levee and everything is looking OK we can provide rehabilitation assistance if there was a flood and there was damage to the levee.”

A larger FEMA inspection will come later.

“For their accreditation, to be certified by FEMA, it’s more of a detailed analysis,” he said. “What’s different about it is that they’re concerned about the one percent chance flood; or 100year flood.

“The city can go to an outside source and have this work done.”

McBain was asked why FEMA couldn’t just use the most recent results for the certification.

“The routine inspection is just that,” he explained. “We usually send one or two people. We walk the levee and we look for obvious things, but we’re not digging in making sure the materials are what the design documents say.

We’re not doing any seepage analysis or stability analysis based on the best data we have. The evaluation process that FEMA requires to get this accreditation is a lot more of an extensive process.

“Typically, the evaluations The Corps can do that, but will go into a lot more depth.

Resources available for Douglas County veterans One of the joys of writing this column is meeting new people and discovering events and resources available to Douglas County veterans of which I was previously unaware.

Such was the case when I received an email from Molly McGuire-Davis. She contacted me to ask if I could share information about the upcoming VFW Post 2468 Ladies Auxiliary Post Flea Market. The VFW plans two-day flea markets next month with the first on Thursday, Oct. 16 and Friday, Oct. 17; the second is Friday, Oct. 24 and Saturday, Oct. 25. The flea markets will run from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily at the VFW, at 1127 NE Walnut Street in Roseburg.

Proceeds from table rentals will be used to assist local veterans and keep the Post operating. For more information, call VFW Post 2468 541-672-9716.

Terry Mooney, President of the Umpqua Valley Chapter 805 of the Vietnam Veterans of America (VVA), recently unveiled the traveling Oregon Memorial Wall.

“The motto of the VVA states ‘Never again will one generation of Americans abandon another,’ and we take that motto very seriously,” said Mooney. “The VVA wants the newer veterans to know that we will mentor them, care for them, and help them through the healing.”

The next important step is actually practicing a plan. Practice increases your chances dramatically and will give you an immense advantage if you are faced with an emergency. Don’t let the concern for, “What will people think!” keep you from trying out your fire plan.

If anything ever happens, you will be relieved when the whole family is together at the mailbox while your home is burning. If you have small children you can even make a game of it. It is amazing what we will remember after actually practicing something.

Hook up with CERT, or the American Red Cross, or one of the local Fire Departments by attending one of their drill nights (Gardiner – Tuesdays at 6:30 pm at the fire hall, and Winchester Bay – Wednesdays at 6:30 pm at the fire hall) or visit Reedsport’s website www.cityofreedsport.org.

They are always looking for volunteers and have some great training. 3.)

Participate in emergency drills such as The Great Oregon Shakeout coming up Oct. 16 at 10:16 am. www.shakeout.org/oregon.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Essig must go Like a dangerous ember escaping an unwatched fire, Diane Essig must be extinguished from City Council to preserve our rights under the Reedsport Charter.

Four years ago, Ms Essig raised her hand before the citizens of Reedsport and swore an oath to support the city's charter. Since this meaningless ceremony, Essig has unethically or immorally conspired to incinerate section 45 of Reedsport's charter and amend the silent majority's right requiring a double majority on important municipal issues. The role of a councilperson is to defend the city's charter and rights it affords; not to amend sections designed to protect the people from taxation without representation.

Democrats like Ed O'Carrol, Libertarians like myself, even Merv Cloe agrees that it is time for Ms Essig to exit the Council.

Unless extinguished, Diane Essig poses a continued threat to the rights of the Reedsport's citizens and the city's charter.

Send a message this election that the people choose not to warm themselves in a blanket of ash that was our city's charter by voting no on 10-135.

Then, defend the Charter from Essig, extinguishing her from the council by writing-in A'eron Blackman for city council position 4.

Vote for Leif At his Sutherlin Tea Party forum statement, Chris Boice announced that he was opening another automotive related business in

addition to his ongoing tire business. Both are full-time business operations. In addition, he stated that he has 4 young children at home and he volunteers for their social activities as well as his church functions. He stated that he has been working hard over the last two months since deciding to run for commissioner on trying to learn how the county operates. With this demanding schedule how will he be able to commit to being the full-time commissioner that our county needs?

Gary Leif on the other hand has the experience and knowledge necessary to take the office in January and be ready to take on the responsibilities of Commissioner. His children are grown and out of the home. He has arranged for a fellow studio owner to take over his business responsibilities. His past 25 years of commitment and volunteering on numerous boards and committees has gained him the experience necessary to move forward as commissioner. I especially liked his response to the question “would he be willing lead the way by example to take a pay reduction as a commissioner”. He stated that he certainly would be willing to take a reduction in his commissioner’s salary. He also said that there were going to need to be other hard decisions in balancing the budget to make ends meet.

At this particular time, and especially with the short two-year term, Gary Leif’s leadership, experience and knowledge make him the most qualified candidate to fill the position of commis-

sioner.

Please join me in voting for Gary Leif for Douglas County commissioner this November.

Cheer FROM PAGE 1

Team pays its own way through fundraisers They work very well together and are always helping one another. The skills on the squad varies we have four returners and eight new members all learning at their own pace. “ Long says it was exciting to cheer for the football team at its first home game.

She hopes the school and community appreciate it.

“Our goal for the year is to be a team that Reedsport High School and Reedsport as a community are proud to be represented by,” she said.

Fundraisers over the summer included a few car washes in the hot weather. It was worth it, Long said.

“We raised enough to cover our uniforms and poms for the whole squad,” she said, “which we couldn't do without the support of the community. We are working and brainstorming as a team to plan more fundraisers. The squad is funded by itself. If we don't raise it we don't get it.”

Members of the squad are excited to explain when they’re asked why they want to be a member of the team.

“Because I wish to thrive on a college level cheer squad,” Sierra King explained.

Hannah Kirk was glad to see the squad return.

“Because it's what I love doing,” she said.

“Because I wanted to be part of a group,” Cheyenne Neet said. “I wanted to stay fit and I wanted to attended more games; football and basketball .”

Janzen Norton loves the excitement of the cheer.

“When I was in eighth grade, and went to the football and basketball games, I saw how the cheerleaders pumped up the crowd and I knew that’s what I wanted to do,” Norton said. “I wanted to make everyone smile and have a great time.”

Laura Sauther looked at from a team aspect.

“It looked like a fun way to support the Braves and cheer on our team,” she said.

Sanitary FROM PAGE 1 answered, “we were in pretty much a different world. The understanding our staff had, at that point, that there was an expectation of a really significant development ... that was going to bring quite a number of hookups.”

Andersen was asked what that proposed development would have been.

“My understanding was a 400 unit condo that somebody believed was going to be delivered on the waterfront,” he said.

That met with a lot of pushback from the board, which was recently selected to replace a board that was recalled in June.

“I’m just saying what we understood,” Andersen responded. “The board, the duly elected board, came to DEQ and said ‘hey, we would like to go our own way.’ As a consequence, and what we did, and what we still do, is that if a duly elected government body comes to DEQ and says ‘hey, we want to do some work to plan for a different approach to the way we do business.’ If they have the wherewithal, and can demonstrate the financial ability to repay that loan, then we make

the loan.”

He said the DEQ was not, and is not, in the business of selecting who gets loans, if they meet all the requirements.

“We don’t presuppose what a sanitary is going to do, or not do,” Andersen said. “If you come to us and says ‘we have an interest in using some of your funding to do this work’ then part of our obligation is to support that, making sure that the requirements associated with that financial agreement can be met.”

The DEQ also made a loan to city of Reedsport to upgrade its sewer treatment plant, to include wastewater from Gardiner. That plant went online in 2010. Gardiner was required to make a portion of the $12-milliion loan payments.

Board member Mack Holman told Andersen it didn’t appear the district qualified for the 2009 loan.

“Having read the contract,” Holman said, “it’s a very specific contract. It doesn’t sound like we really qualified for that. It talks about owning the facility, maintaining the facility, that we’re going to be making money off the facility. We haven’t had a facility. We’re

talking about pure speculation, and yet we’re signing a contract that’s claiming that we have a facility.”

He used an example that he thought was relevant.

“That’s sort of like Bank of America making a $300,000 house loan to somebody that’s unemployed,” Holman said.

“We believed Gardiner Sanitary District was operating in good faith in that application,” Andersen said. “We responded in good faith by making the loan. In retrospect, in hindsight ... yeah, that doesn’t look that good. I think that we would probably, if that application came to us today, we would have a lot more questions about what’s going on.”

“It was a facilities loan, and we didn’t have any facilities,” Holman repeated.

“It was a planning loan,” Andersen responded.

That loan has been extended three times and there have still been no payments to DEQ. At one point Nored dropped some keys on the table in front of him and invited Andersen to take over the district.

“You’re talking retired people in the community,” Nored said, “who are trying to live in a house they can’t sell because of sewer rates ... here we are. They can’t get out of it. They’re stuck with it.

They’re living on Social Security and you’re talking about raising the rates $34.

“If you want it, there’s the keys.”

“I understand the current board is unhappy with the work that the previous board has done,” Andersen said, “and not happy with the DEQ that we were willing to make that loan. That doesn’t change the fact that there’s a legal agreement associated with that loan and the Gardiner Sanitary District has an obligation to repay that loan.”

Andersen said he would go back to his office and get more information on the loan.

“Somebody didn’t do their homework,” Holman said.

FROM PAGE 1 Reedsport.

“We’re seeing an average of over 10 visits a day now,” she said. “It started a couple, of course, in January and now we’re seeing over 10 . We could see more if we had more than two exam rooms.”

The new clinic will have three exam rooms.

The good news continued.

“With moving over here, if the volumes hold or grow, we can go to seven days a week instead of the five,” Reese said.

She said the move will mean more specialists.

“They could expand a little bit,” she said. “We have the cardiology group that wants another day a week. We have a pain specialist that would like more time in the clinic.

We, frankly, don’t have enough space and the footprint can’t really grow on that piece of property.”

Reese said the new walkin clinic will be accessible from existing facilities.

“That will (be accessible) from the first parking lot off of Ranch Road, if you’re coming from town,” she said. “It will be the lower level parking lot.”

The clinic normally runs from noon to 8 p.m. on Wednesday through Sunday.

“That should work for us (at the hospital) because the busy times are in the morning,” Reese said. “It shouldn’t be a problem parking at all.”

Reese was asked why the walk-in clinic couldn’t be moved to another site, including property the hospital owns elsewhere in the city.

“Hospital services, for

reimbursement purposes, have to be on an adjacent site,” she explained. “They can’t be far from the hospital, proper, for a critical access hospital. We actually have a distance limit.”

She said they actually had to measure from the hospital to the clinics to make sure that they could be considered “hospital-based” services.

Reese said they’ve also considered remodeling and expanding the hospital building to north.

“That’s actually our best building spot,” she said. “If we ever did expand the hospital that’s the perfect spot for it.

“We’re trying to do this at very little cost, so we’re going to do it internally and it shouldn’t cost much to be able to accommodate the walk-in clinic now.”

work a position out of that.”

“Would that mean that the city of Reedsport, then, would make our monthly report to DEQ,” board member Susanna Noordhoff asked Wright.

“I would imagine so,” Wright answered, but said he would have to add that into any proposal he makes.

The district board voted for Wright to continue to develop a possible rate structure. Wright said he would approach the city council at its Oct. 6 meeting.

“We still have some work to do to bang out the logistics on it,” he said. “I think we’re close.”

While Wright was in Gardiner, the board asked about the district’s share of paying the loan on the wastewater treatment facility, which also treats Gardiner’s wastewater.

The city is considering asking the Department of Environmental Quality to extend out the terms for the loan DEQ granted to build

the treatment plant.

That may mean rates for sewer customers, in Reedsport and Gardiner, could go down.

“Could we consider doing that and spreading out the time so we can get our rates down as far as we can,” Board member Richard Nored asked.

The GSD board recently signed an agreement with the city of Reedsport for 10 years to mail out their bills and treat the wastewater.

“What I’m hearing is, if the board is interested in extending the contract with Reedsport,” Wright answered, “then we would have some flexibility there to talk about extending payment and things like that ... making it more palatable.”

Wright said the city is considering asking the DEQ for an extension of up to 30 years, minus the payments already paid.

“I think we’re at year four now,” he said. “It would be for the remaining 26 years, potentially.”

GSD FROM PAGE 1

Trying to extend original loan out for 30 years ices,” he said. “I was asked to give some idea that, if we were to try to share services, what that would look like in the way of costs.”

Rough figures showed a part-time worker ... 20 hours a week ... that would include facilities inspections at the Reedsport wastewater treatment facility.

That could cost $20, 514, if the proposal comes to fruition.

“In some cases, this is difficult for me, because I don’t have the staff that would be able to cover this,” Wright told the board. “I have to figure out how I would do that.”

He also said he had union considerations.

“The good part, for the city,” he said, “is that I do have the need for a weekend person, which we could net-

Reedsport stays perfect in league THE UMPQUA POST Reedsport’s volleyball team didn’t do as well as it might have hoped in the McKenzie RPI Tournament over the weekend, but the Braves won the matches they really needed last week.

Reedsport swept Waldport and Gold Beach in a pair of road matches in the Sunset Conference. That kept the Braves 3-0 heading into their big match Tuesday night against Myrtle Point (results weren’t available by press time).

Waldport and Gold Beach became the Braves second and third three-game league matches as the Braves seek one of the league’s two playoff berths. The Braves topped the Irish 25-12, 2516, 25-18; and beat the Panthers, 25-14, 25-15, 25-7.

Against Waldport, Alyssa Aguirre had five aces, a kill and two digs; Kaylynn Hixenbaugh had five aces, 24 assists and three saves; and Mariah McGill had 13 kills.

Against Gold Beach, Julia Analco had five aces and two kills; Hixenbaugh had 16 assists, four aces, four digs and a save; McGill had seven kills, two blocks, an ace and a save; and Aguirre had two aces and eight digs.

The weekend tournament at Blue River provided a much tougher level of com-

petition.

Culver beat the Braves 2513, 25-21 to start the day. It was the Bulldogs’ second win over the Braves in two weeks.

The Braves had problems with serve receive and serving in the first set and didn’t hit well in either game, coach James Hixenbaugh said.

Reedsport then lost to McKenzie 25-11, 14-25, 15-10.

“Again we didn’t play well the first set,” Hixenbaugh said. “We played well the second set, but lost in the third set.”

But Reedsport bounced back to beat Days Creek, the squad that denied the Braves the state title last fall. This time, Reedsport prevailed 25-15, 25-16, 21-25, 25-12.

Britney Manicke finished the day with 18 kills and two aces, while McGill had 38 kills, eight aces and four blocks. Kaylynn Hixenbaugh had six aces, seven saves and 32 assists. Aguirre had 32 digs.

“There were good teams at this tournament, and though we didn’t do well over all (in wins and losses), I thought we did a good job,” James Hixenbaugh said. “We are working hard and we are looking forward to playing Myrtle Point on Tuesday.

The Braves finish the first half of the league season Thursday at Bandon and start the second half next Tuesday at Toledo.

By Lou Sennick, The Umpqua Post

Santiam’s Jackson Klagge puts some pressure on Reedsport quarterback Tyler Tresch during the first half of their game Friday night in Reedsport.

Braves are set for league play

BY JOHN GUNTHER The Umpqua Post

On the surface, Reedsport’s football team is 3-1 after an impressive 29-6 win over visiting Santiam on Friday night.

But beyond the box score, Reedsport’s players and coaches see a team that can be much better — and needs to be now that Sunset Conference play is beginning.

Friday’s win over the Wolverines was spurred by a stifling defense and several big plays.

“The offense still isn’t clicking,” Reedsport coach Shane Nelson said. “If we can take that step on offense and match how we’re playing in the other phases, we’re a dangerous team.”

Reedsport wasn’t able to consistently sustain drives during the game, but didn’t need to to earn the victory.

That’s because for most of the game, Santiam only had one drive. It came on the opening possession, when the Wolverines marched the field in 13 plays, aided by one big penalty against the Braves, and scored on a 12yard pass with 7:33 to go in the first quarter.

Reedsport stuffed the two-point pass attempt and the Santiam lead lasted a

grand total of 14 seconds of game clock.

That’s because Reedsport’s Joey Herr took the kickoff, found a hole on the right sideline and raced 80 yards for the equalizing touchdown. Shallon Zehe’s conversion kick put Reedsport ahead for good.

Santiam’s next possession included tackles for loss by Herr, Jared Billings and a combined effort by Egan Glover and Chris James. That backed the Wolverines up to their 5-yard line and a short punt set up Herr’s second touchdown of the night, a 4yard run on fourth-and-one.

The Braves continued to bottle up the Wolverines, and the defense provided the next points early in the second quarter. Cameron Winfield, Glover and James took down Santiam’s Peyton White near the goal line. On the next play, the Braves were poised for a sack in the end zone and Santiam quarterback Riley Nicot tried to throw the ball with his left hand, drawing an intentional grounding call and giving Reedsport a safety.

The defense set up the next score, too, with an interception by Marquece Williams giving Reedsport the ball at Santiam’s 35-yard line.

Williams actually found the end zone on the play, but a penalty nullified the touchdown — the second time Reedsport had a touchdown called back by penalties.

“Penalties are killing us,” Nelson lamented after the game.

This time, Reedsport got a touchdown anyway, Herr’s third score of the game on an 18-yard run.

Santiam finally moved the ball some in the second half, but the Wolverines’ best chance for a score ended with another big Reedsport play, when Williams stepped in front of a Santiam receiver, intercepted a pass and sprinted 96 yards for the game’s final score on the final play of the third quarter.

Williams has been a nice addition to the Braves’ returning veterans after not playing since he was a freshman in Vancouver, Wash.

“I’m having fun,” he said.

“I’m glad I decided to play.”

Williams is part of the offensive punch that includes Herr and Billings as the primary running backs.

Herr ran for 93 yards on 15 carries Friday night, but was sidelined for most of the second half because of cramps for the second

straight game.

The Braves are trying to figure out why Herr keeps struggling with cramping issues.

“We’re a whole different team without him running the ball,” Nelson said. “He’s physical.”

Billings ran for 44 yards against Santiam and Joe Hixenbaugh gained 22 while filling Herr’s spot.

Reedsport’s offense was primarily run-based Friday.

Nelson didn’t ask quarterback Tyler Tresch to throw many passes, figuring the Braves could run the ball against the Wolverines.

That’s going to become more important in league play.

“We have to be able to control the clock,” Nelson said.

The Braves start league play Friday night at Toledo.

The Boomers, a newcomer to the Sunset Conference, have just one win, but it was an impressive one Friday against Central Linn.

Asked if he was excited about the league season, Herr simply said, “Oh, yeah.”

The top three teams at the end of the five-week league season advance to the Class 2A playoffs.

Tracy Williams records ace at Forest Hills THE UMPQUA POST Reedsport resident Tracy Williams had his second career hole-in-one last week during the men’s day event at Forest Hills Country Club.

Williams used a 7-iron to ace the 151-yard second hole. He has been golfing for six years.

Williams placed second

in the men’s day competition with an 81 and teamed with Jim Richardson to take lownet honors in the team competition with a combined net score of 58.

Bank angling proves phenomenal on Umpqua River The hottest news last week was how many salmon were hooked by anglers casting spinners from the shore at Winchester Bay. It was, quite simply, the hottest spinner bite in the lower Umpqua River in my memory.

The “secret” quickly got out and it didn’t take long before there were so many “spinner flingers” along the bank that there was barely room to cast. Most of the fish hooked were wild or unclipped cohos that had to be released, since many anglers quickly reached their daily (1) or seasonal limits (2) for unclipped cohos and had to release salmon after salmon. On Thursday and Friday — and possibly other days, individual anglers landed 10 or more adult salmon in a single day.

Half Moon Bay and Osprey Point were the most productive spots and room to cast was at a premium — to the point where

week until the quota is reached or Oct. 31.

As for tuna fishing — always, access to the albacore is highly dependent on weather and ocean conditions. Overall the fishing was fair to good last week, with the best catch rates out of Charleston and Winchester Bay with 4.5 to 5 fish per angler.

Albacore were reported to be as close as 16 miles from shore at some ports.

Albacore are typically in areas where sea surface temperatures are warmer than 58 degrees and in areas where chlorophyll concentrations are close to 0.25 milligrams per cubic meter. Both of these conditions can change very quickly due to weather and upwelling.

Ocean fishing for bottomfish reopened on Oct. 1 in waters deeper than 30 fathoms (180 feet). Since these spots have been closed for six months, fishing should be good.
