BANDON — Gabe Guerin is a sweet and funny 7-year-old boy. He is the second oldest of four brothers to parents Sabrina and Josh and loves to read, draw, ride his bike and play basketball.

His mom says he’s a smart kid and the “best snuggler in the whole world.”

But this small boy is facing a big challenge.

In February 2013, when Gabe was 6 years old, he was diagnosed with nystagmus — an involuntary, rapid and repetitive movement of the eyes.

He was sent to see a neurological opthamologist at Oregon Health and Sciences University in Portland. At this initial appoint-

BCHC welcomes new nurse practitioner Bandon Western World

BANDON — Bandon Community Health Center welcomes Family Nurse Practitioner Laura Bye to the clinic staff. Bye began serving patients at the BCHC Bandon clinic April 1.

For more than 10 years, Bye has worked with patients in varied medical settings, including hospitals, clinics and home health locations throughout the Pacific Northwest. Bye considered a move to the Oregon Coast for some time. She chose Bandon after meeting the BCHC staff.

“The staff they have are amazing,” said Bye, who noted how refreshing it is to find such a cohesive group of professionals.

Her depth of training, coupled with special expertise in pain management and geriatric care, benefit the health center and the community, said Executive Director Linda Maxon.

“We’re really fortunate to have a practitioner come to us with such a strong background in caring for Medicare patients, and she’s especially knowledgeable of in-home services,” said Maxon.

“Clinically, Laura is very sound and grounded. And she will do very well with patients managing long term pain, with many tools and a team approach to helping

Tiffany’s to Rite Aid Tiffany’s Drugs, one of the original tenants when the Bandon Shopping Center was built 20 years ago, is now a Rite Aid.

Shopping center changes begin

By Amy Moss Strong Bandon Western World

BANDON — The Bandon Shopping Center is undergoing major changes, the first of which began Friday with the closure of longtime tenant Tiffany’s Drugs.

The pharmacy re-opened Saturday morning with a new sign: Rite Aid. The shopping center was purchased by Dickerhoof Properties of Corvallis on Feb. 14, for just over $4 million.

Darren Dickerhoof said that his company intends to put $500,000 to $600,000 into remodeling the complex, including new facades and building improvements.

In addition to the Rite Aid changeover, the next major change will take place beginning in May, when Bandon Golf

By Amy Moss Strong Bandon Western World

Bandon Cranberry Festival Queen 2013 Emma Wampler will represent Bandon at the Miss Oregon Scholarship Pageant in July and is busily preparing for her trip.

Preparing will first involve raising the money necessary to attend the pageant camp May 2-4 and the pageant itself, set for the week of June 22-28 in Seaside.

According to Chamber Executive Director Julie Miller,it costs approximately $5,000 to

send a representative to the Miss Oregon pageant.

Wampler’s platform is disaster preparedness and her project has been to organize a Teen Community Emergency Response Team training at Bandon High School.

Wampler’s CERT involvement was featured in a recent issue of The Ford Family Foundation’s Community Vitality newsletter, and she is taking the class along with the other BHS members.

“We’re off to a good start.

Supply will move from its current location at the north end of the center, to a new location next door to Rite Aid to make room for a Dollar Tree store, expected in late summer.

The golf shop will utilize three existing spaces: Bandon Pizza, Pet Wash Plus and a vacant store.

Bandon Pizza owner Bev Wordan is looking for a new location for the store, which has been in the shopping center for 20 years.

In addition, Bree’s Upscale Resale will be moving to a new location uptown, next to Juul Insurance and Edward Jones Investments and across from the former Bandon Pharmacy (which will soon house the Bandon Liquor Store).

Bree’s store manager is excited about the change.

EDUCATION

Battle was fierce for book quiz BANDON — The battle lines were drawn as two final teams participated in the Ocean Crest Elementary School second annual Battle of the Books.

The program is a voluntary reading contest that runs in school districts all over the county, designed to encourage reading and give recognition to active readers.

In Bandon’s version of the battle, students were introduced to a list of 14 books that they know will be included in the competition. The books were paid for by the Bandon Masonic Lodge. Students who want to compete are encouraged, but not required, to read all the books on the list.

Third and fourth grade students were eligible to compete and students form three-person teams.

There were 10 teams this year, according to Battle of the Books organizer and Ocean Crest librarian Kelly Baker.

All the teams played two preliminary rounds.

Those rounds narrowed the field to three teams that competed in three

Each contest consisted of 30 questions. Each

question begins with the words “In which book,” then asks a question based on the content of the book and must be answered with the title and author of the book. All the questions come from the list of books for this year’s battle.

“Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds.”

— Albert Einstein theoretical physicist, 1879-1955 Thursday, April 3, 2014

Letters Funny show at the Sprague I have sat through the New Artists Productions western comedy “Wagon Wheels A Rollin’” playing at Bandon’s Sprague Theater 10 times so far, including rehearsals, and as the kids develop their characters it just gets funnier.

The Almich family, who handle the entire production, are tireless, cheerful and have made it a wonderful experience for my two daughters’ first go at theater.

Try to make it — you’ll get a real chuckle!

Mom’s last wish was granted This is a note of special thanks to a local lady for granting Mom’s last wish — (Waunette Eva Cook [Skeets] June 3, 1924 to March 22, 2014.)

A local talented lady named Candy volunteered her time and talent on her harp to hospice for comforting the elderly. Mom had for several weeks gone through excruciating pain and suffering, but Friday Candy came to Mom’s room at West Wind Court just hours before her passing and played her harp and sang softly for Mom. As Candy drew to a close, Mom managed to whisper a request, “One more.”

I am especially grateful for the next two songs of comfort and Mom’s last wish was granted by a sweet stranger named Candy, who was Mom’s angel that day. Mom whispered, “I love you,” her last words to me afterward.

My brother and I will be forever grateful and from the bottom of our hearts, we thank you, Candy.

John and Jim Mock Bandon

Thank you for stopping On Tuesday, March 25, I was walking my very ill Great Dane to the vet’s office at the corner of June and U.S. Highway 101. We had to walk from my home a few blocks away because my dog wasn’t able to climb into my vehicle.

We were standing at the curb on the southbound side of the highway, which is really hard to cross safely because there is no traffic light. I saw only one vehicle in either direction: a red SUV driven by a woman. I thought surely she would stop so that my dog and I could cross before the traffic resumed in each direction so that we could cross safely.

However, instead of stopping, she proceeded to blast her horn as she looked at us and sped by. My dog and I crossed to the left-turn lane in the middle of the highway and stopped, as many cars were now coming up the hill in the northbound lanes. It wasn’t a safe place to be.

However, the first vehicle in the right-hand lane stopped and then all the other cars stopped behind it and in the left-hand lane for us. My very senior dog, who could barely walk, was then able to cross the highway very slowly.

I was so grateful to all who stopped for us, even though there isn’t a cross walk at that corner, and they didn’t really have to stop. Thank you all so much for stopping. Your thoughtfulness was very much appreciated on a very sad day when my best friend was euthanized. Maybe if the woman in the red SUV had known the circumstances, she would have stopped for us.

A tobacco-free pharmacy Bandon is a place where children and families are highly valued. We pride ourselves on being a community that makes a special effort to provide a healthy and culturally rich environment that protects our children and allows them to develop to their full potential.

People are rightly concerned about the effect of marijuana dispensaries in Bandon and it makes sense to restrict where they can be located in our community.

This concern should extend to another inhaled plant product, a substance that is the single greatest threat to our children’s future health and well being.

That product of course is tobacco.

Unfortunately, a new “dispensary” for tobacco and associated nicotine delivery products is about to open in a local shopping center. Rite Aid Pharmacy prominently displays and sells a wide variety of tobacco and related products that promote nicotine addiction. One might think it more than a bit inap-

propriate for a pharmacy, a store specializing in providing products and services to enhance health, to sell a product that when used as expected will kill as many as half of its users.

Another large pharmacy company, CVS, thought so and made a decision to not sell tobacco at any of its 7,000 stores. Selling tobacco in a pharmacy normalizes tobacco use and sends a very poor message to our children.

Other communities have passed ordinances banning the sale of tobacco products in pharmacies.

These ordinances have been tested in the courts and their legality has been upheld.

Contact Rite Aid at https://www.riteaid.com/customer-support/contact-us and urge them to open their first tobacco free store in Bandon. Attend the Bandon City Council meeting on April 14 and support a request for an ordinance banning tobacco sales in pharmacies.

Improve your life with LEAP A cooking and eating lifestyle class is again being offered in Bandon. Despite all the hype and exaggerations we’re often bombarded with, this program works. It’s offered by a local group of volunteers at a very reasonable price with meetings a few times a week for one month. It’s called LEAP for Lifestyle Eating Activity Progress. It will teach different ways of looking at food and likely challenge long-established habits.

There’s an old saying: If you keep doing the same thing you’ll keep getting the same results. Common sense says if you don’t like the results, change something. There’ll be common sense tools and tactics to improve your life. It worked for me and I still gladly follow it. Within the first 30 days I lost seven pounds and cut my blood pressure and diabetes medicine in half (with doctor approval).

You’re shown a path and get decide if you want to follow it. It takes some dedication and willingness to learn. Everything of value does. If you don’t like it, go back to your old habits or find another great program.

Information meetings are Wednesday, April 2, and Monday, April 7, both at 6 p.m. at our wonderful Southern Coos Hospital meeting room on 11th Street.

Contact phone: 541-551-1192. I’m not involved in the program or paid to write this. I simply attended and had my life changed for the better just about two years ago. Try it. You’ll be glad you did.

How would you choose?

In the first Budget Committee on March 24, planning for the 2014 fiscal year, a critical fork in the road was identified for who thrives and how in Bandon.

There was a discussion about the water, dams, costs and raising water rates. Now very expensive dredging and other upkeep will have to be done on the city’s water source. The ODFW will not have funds for dam repairs for years. We absolutely must maintain safe and plentiful water. Now, you decide how.

This budget calls for close to $900,000 to be spent this year to buy a street sweeper and a huge new city shop south of 11th. It was said because the tsunami (fear) that is apparently coming in the 2014 budget year would destroy the city’s equipment in the Woolen Mill. However, Winkel is in the process of allowing more city property to be used by Face Rock Creamery. They have done well enough to want another warehouse, but no income for the city or living wages for the seasonal workers.

A clear path has recently been created from Grand north of 11th all the way down to the Woolen Mill.

Also, at the next City Council meeting on April 14, the council is going to vote on a Las Vegas-style electronic sign at U.S. Highway 101 and Highway 42S costing $25,000.

So, how would you choose to spend your money?

Would you save funds now budgeted for street sweepers, garages, flashing signs, and other “want” items or apply those funds this year to water issues to lessen or eliminate the need for a water rate increase?

Or would you be willing to increase what you pay for water so Face Rock Creamery investors and management get to use the land, which is going to be

destroyed by the tsunami, to make more profits?

You can decide if and how you want to spend your money to thrive.

Thanks to the community Bandon All-Star Cheer would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone that supported us throughout our season.

Chili cook-off a success The Coos County Mounted Sheriff’s Posse would like to extend a warm thank-you to the following individuals and businesses for supporting our first ever chili cook-off event that we hosted in Coquille at the Community Center.

First and foremost Sheriff Craig Zanni and his wife Chris for allowing us to put on such a successful event. Without the support of the Sheriff’s Office, this event would not have been possible.

April showers bring flowers at South Slough New Artists’ Old West comedy final weekend “Wagon Wheels-a-Rollin’,” a rootin’ tootin’ comedy spoof of the Old West, presented by New Artists Productions, will take the Sprague Community Theater stage for its final weekend. The comedy, written by Tim Kelly, features 36 young actors from the New Artists program.

This fast-paced comedy is filled with a goofy stable of hilarious characters who not only tell the story, but also keep the audience in stitches, according to a press release. The trailblazin’ hero, the sweet heroine and the villainous crooked card dealer keep the audience riveted to the action.

A host of other characters add extra spice to this wild romp. Toss in an election for the town mayor, an old Spanish land grant and some Western entertainment, the evening at the theater will be full.

“Dan and I are having such a great time with this play — all of the kids are drawing from their natural abilities to develop new skills as they bring their characters to life,” said Anita Almich, who with her husband Dan founded New Artists Productions.

The show will conclude its run April 4, 5 and 6. Show times are Friday and Saturday at 7 p.m.; Sunday matinee at 2 p.m. Tickets, priced at $10 adults, $8 seniors, $5 students (K-12), are available at Bandon True Value Hardware, 541-347-2506, at the door prior to each show or by reservation with the Almichs at 541-347-2517.

Travel Night features Owyhee Canyonlands A special Travel Night will be held at the Bandon Library at 7 p.m. Tuesday, April 8.

Wanting to escape the rain this spring? Special guest speaker Chris Hansen invites you to experience the wonder of the Owyhee Canyonlands, the last great undeveloped expanse of the American West.

Carved by desert rivers winding toward the Pacific, the Owyhee Canyonlands of Eastern Oregon are the largest undeveloped natural area left unprotected in the lower 48 states. Just a handful of paved roads cross these five million acres of craggy, red-rock canyons, blue-ribbon trout streams and vast rolling hills that serve as prime habitat for golden eagles and bighorn sheep.

Come see photos and video of fantastic red-rock day hikes, multi-day rafting adventures, tantalizing hot springs and challenging backpacking opportunities in this remote and beautiful section of southeast Oregon.

As Owyhee Coordinator with the Oregon Natural Desert Association, Hansen will let you know how to get there, what to bring, and the best times to go.

Former Bandon High School history teacher Jeff Moore arranged for Hansen’s talk. Hansen also will give a presentation at BHS that morning.

Everyone is welcome, there is no cost to attend, and refreshments will be served. Travel Night is sponsored by the Bandon Library Friends & Foundation.

Library art for April The Bandon Library art show for April will feature Dawn Vonderlin with “Action Books, Animated Board Games ... No Batteries Required” in the glass cases and “Imagined Encounters 2,” oil paintings by Sheila Oberg in the hallway. The exhibit will remain up through April.

Dawn Vonderlin “I would attribute my passion for antiques and vintage graphics to my McKoy Grandparents. The stories, the photos, the antique cards and the old games they shared sparked an interest in vintage items.

“My grandfather was a wonderful artist and painted and drew many whimsical characters and would create comic strips of the family. He was a great craftsman, always restoring old furniture since it had ‘good wood.’

“I have been inspired by many great illustrators of the past and always felt their creativity and talent made them fantastic artists. I am glad the art has finally earned credibility. I just love the colors, the comical situations and whimsical characters in these vintage illustrated books and board games. Of course Disney also holds a special place in my heart. The collection is mostly just fun — and we could all use some fun in our lives!”

Sheila Oberg “I grew up in New York, studied art history at Hunter College, painting at the Arts Student League and spent hours at the museums and galleries there.

My focus in my early years as a student was to see how many tones I could get out of a single color.

“I painted very little during the years of child rearing and family focus. Fortunately, I have been able to embrace it with renewed passion.

“The show you are seeing is a result of disciplined, focus time in my studio in Port Orford. I hope you enjoy the work.”

Fundraiser benefits students and the arts It’s local artists vs. the clock to complete creations in front of a live audience at “Art From The Heart — An Evening of Fine Art and Beautiful Entertainment,” a fundraiser benefiting the Afterschool Arts And Culture Club and Bandon Making Murals Project.

The show will be held at 7 p.m. Friday, April 11, at the Sprague Theater, 1202 11th St. SW in Bandon City Park.

The event also will feature top quality storytellers in a variety of styles, musical performances ranging from the classics to the hilarious, comedians, shadow magic and more for a night of enjoyable entertainment from some of the finest South Coast professional and youth performers.

Performers include Jim Proehl and Friends with shadow puppets; Mikhala Smith; The Fisher Kings; The Overtones, a BHS barbershop quartet; Stephanie Gordon, spoken-word poetry; Mark Havill, storytelling; Mike Dempsey and Jenn Winchell; Candace Kreitlow, harp and slide show about murals; Johann Hamblin with art-in-the-making; Crystal Landucci with Ben and Isabella Bean; Sam Augsburger on horn; and others.

A raffle will be held for several framed fine art pieces by local artists as well as a chance to win an Affatati custom-painted mini-mural for home or office. A student art show will be on display in the lobby.

Complimentary refreshments will be served.

Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for students and available at True Value Hardware or at the door.

Christopher Tree with Spontaneous Sound “Spontaneous Sound” by Christopher Tree will be presented at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, April 19, at the Sprague Theater, 1202 11th St. SW in Bandon City Park.

“A ton of instruments” — that’s how Tree, 82, of Bandon, describes the hundreds of drums, flutes, bells and other exotic sound-makers he plays. Tree is world renowned for playing two or more instruments at the same time and making perfect harmony.

Tree has been living in Bandon since the 1990s, when he left France after having lived there for 23 years raising children and giving concerts all around France.

He came to Bandon to be closer to his son, Jason Tree (proprietor of Pacific Blues). Spry for his age, Tree also works out daily at the Bandon Fitness Center.

The community is invited to come hear this unique legendary musician. The idea for a concert initially came from Susan Tree, founder of Mother’s Natural Grocery, former daughter-in-law of the musician and still his good friend. Tree said the conSEVENTH-DAY cert he gave in 2013 would ADVENTIST CHURCH be his last, but decided to give it another go, one Pastor Jose Agosto final time this year.

Coy Smith hearing is put off until June

By Thomas Moriarty Bandon Western World

COQUILLE — A Bandon man charged with manslaughter may not see the inside of a courtroom again until this summer.

In a change-of-plea hearing Monday morning, Coy Daniel Smith consented to a delay in trial proceedings. His next chance for a change of plea is scheduled

for June 16.

Smith's case had previously been pushed back in February when he waived his right to a speedy trial to allow for examination of DNA evidence.

Smith is charged with first-degree manslaughter in the Oct. 3 death of California resident William Drews, who was found seriously injured in front of a Bill Creek Lane residence where his estranged wife had been staying.

April 24, at the Salem Conference Center.

Grant’s drive to help Diagnosed with a brain tumor at the age of 22 months, Crim has devoted himself to supporting the American Cancer Society, especially through his support of the Relay for Life fundraiser.

A past relay participant, Crim in August 2012 joined his local Relay for Life of South Coos County event planning committee as the team development chair.

He recruited new teams, mentored existing teams, prepared monthly meeting agendas, facilitated monthly team captain meetings and served as spokesman for his local event.

Averaging 15-20 hours per week in Relay for Life volunteer service, Crim has put in about 1,560 hours since 2012.

He shares his personal story of survivorship at local civic clubs, high school assemblies and Relay for Life events. He wrote and helped produce a song and several videos about his experiences spreading awareness about cancer and fundraising. In memory of his late friend Natalie Hill, he started a national #LLLN (Live Life Like Natalie!) fundraising and cancer awareness campaign.

“I know first hand how the efforts of the American Cancer Society can help a cancer patient,” Crim wrote in a speech he will present at the awards luncheon.“My family and I have personally benefited from their lodging programs. Money raised by Relay For Life volunteers fund research programs like the chemotherapy and surgical clinical trials I participated in.”

Crim is the son of Coos County Community Corrections Director Mike Crim. Grant had raised $1,000 for ACS and made a deal with his dad that if he raised $10,000, Mike would shave his head. Grant told their barber Josh Frasier of Roxy Barber Shop in Coquille about the bet, and Frasier said if he made it, he would not only cut his hair for free, but slick his head smooth with a straight razor, then pro-

Grant continued to raise money with the help of his supporters and was up to more than $9,000. Mike started to get nervous, said Grant’s mom Becky Crim, a tireless supporter of her son and of Relay.

While visiting his father’s office, Grant told the staff about their deal.

Tina Shippey, one of the employees, sent an email out to county staff and corrections directors the state. around Donations poured in over the next few days and Grant was over $10,000 before he knew it.

“It was on Grant’s ‘Life List’ to raise $10,000 for the American Cancer Society by June 28, the date of the South Coos County Relay,” said Becky Crim. “With three months still left, he didn't want to just give up and has upped his goal to $15,000.”

Money raised supports much needed cancer research and local patient support programs.

“In the last few years, I started to fully understand just what Relay could mean to a cancer patient and got more involved,” Grant said.

“Because of Relay, I met my best friend Natalie Hill.

She was a Relay volunteer too. She was larger than life and we dreamed of taking the Relay world by storm together.

Emma definitely the first step toward change,” Wampler said.

Her chaperone, Robin Koch,said Wampler’s platform is a good fit.

“It’s something she believes in and supports completely and knows inside and out,” Koch said.

At Miss Oregon, 23 young women compete over four nights, culminating in the final event on June 28. The women are judged in four categories, including a 10-minute interview, lifestyle and fitness, evening gown and talent.

Wampler, known locally for her vocal talent, will sing at the competition.

“I’m looking forward to it and I know it’s going to be a tremendous learning experience,” Wampler said. “I’m excited to meet the other girls and become a part of that family because you all bond. It’s a

“We set goals of each raising $10,000 and it was a goal that we both achieved, but she would never live to see. Cancer took Nat’s leg, and eventually took her life, but cancer never took her spirit.

She had the heart of a volunteer.”

Crim said he knows people might get tired of hearing him beg for donations, but he feels that everyone has been touched by cancer in one way or another. His hope is that more people will get involved with Relay.

Volunteers are looking to form new teams and get sponsors from the Bandon area for the South Coos County Relay for Life. The next team meeting will be held from 7 to 8 p.m.

Wednesday, April 9, at Coquille Valley Hospital in the conference room on the second floor and everyone is welcome.

The South Coos County Relay for Life will be held from Saturday, June 28 to Sunday, June 29 at the Coquille High School track.

The Coos Bay/North Bend Relay for Life will be held the prior week at the Sunset Middle School track.

For more information about getting involved, visit www.relayforlife.org and search for Coos County teams or call Becky Crim at 541-404-7422.

great experience.”

Chelsea Hill was the first Miss Bandon Cranberry Festival to compete in the Miss Oregon pageant and Wampler will be the second. The winner qualifies to compete in the Miss America pageant.

Koch said the competition builds confidence and self-esteem and is a wonderful way for young women to earn scholarships for college.

“They get $500 just for showing up and are in the running for $80,000 worth of scholarships,” Koch said. “Miss America is the largest provider of scholarships for young women in the United States.”

Wampler, 18, plans to attend Oregon State University in the fall and hopes to attain a Master’s Degree in nutrition to become a registered dietitian.

Wampler is the daughter of Barbara Wampler of Bandon and the late Stephen Wampler, who passed away last fall from cancer.

“Emma is a wonderful, well-rounded young woman who can only gain from this experience,” Koch said. “I’m honored to be able to take her to Miss Oregon and I know she’ll do an excellent job representing Bandon.”

Koch said the Chamber is seeking sponsorships or donations of any amount to help Wampler attend the competition. So far, Bain Insurance, Bandon Dunes Golf Resort and Bandon Vision Center are sponsors. Those interested also can place an ad in the Miss Oregon program book at a cost of $300 for a full page.

To sponsor, call Miller at the Chamber of Commerce,541-347-9616.

Drews later died from what Coos County District Attorney Paul Frasier said was blunt force trauma to the head and neck.

According to a probable cause statement filed by the Coos County Sheriff's Office, witnesses told responding deputies that Smith been involved in a fight between Drews and another man.

At some point during the fight, they said, Smith kicked Drews in the head.

Under Measure 11 sentencing guidelines, he faces a minimum of 10 years in prison if convicted of first-degree manslaughter.

Smith is being held in the Coos County Jail under high security.

Gabe the doctor noticed an increase in the severity of the nystagmus, which led him to order an MRI. The MRI showed that Gabe has a Type 1 Chiari malformation. This is a malformation of the brain and skull that results in the cerebrellar tonsils being forced through the opening at the back of the skull where the spinal cord meets the brain. The skull is putting pressure on his brain and limiting the flow of spinal fluid.

This has resulted in a secondary condition know as Syringomyelia, in which the spinal fluid has started to pool up in the spinal cord and a small cyst is forming.

The Guerins have been to a pediatric neurosurgeon at OHSU and she has recommended decompression surgery.

“She will open up the back of his head and remove small pieces of his skull to relieve the pressure on the brain and allow the spinal fluid to flow freely,” Sabrina said.

“There is also hope that by decompressing the

■ from Page A1 brain, Gabe’s Nystagmus will not continue to worsen.”

Gabe’s surgery is scheduled for April 10 in Portland. Sabrina set up a Go Fund Me account and posted it to Facebook to help raise money for travel and surgery expenses.

“We are so thankful and blessed to have so many wonderful friends and family members that have supported us during this journey,” she said.

“Our family has already started to feel the financial burden of these diagnoses. Not only do we have medical bills, but, because we live five hours from Gabe’s doctors and hospital, every check-up can cost us hundreds of dollars in traveling expenses.”

Josh works as assistant manager of the meat department at Ray’s Food Place. He grew up in Bandon and graduated from Bandon High School. Sabrina moved here from Chicago in 2001. The couple has four boys, Mikey, 10, Gabe, 7, Toby, 4, and Gus, 2.

patients.”

Bye said her strength in caring for elderly Medicare patients is her communication skill. Her introduction to health care began in childhood — her father was a physician in rural practice.

She started her own her medical career as a registered nurse and earned her Masters of Nursing degree and FNP license in 2009.

Her decision to earn her FNP license was motivated by the desire to make a difference is people’s lives. The relationship between primary care practi-

tioner and patient are as fulfilling for her as for her patients, she said. In the health center setting, she is able to invest time getting to know individual patients.

BCHC is a Federally Qualified Health Center serving South Coast residents of Bandon, Langlois, Port Orford and Agness. To expand patient services, the center will relocate to a larger clinic this summer and hire additional staff.

Recruitment is underway for a medical director and psychiatric nurse practitioner.

Rite Aid All this rearranging will make room for the Dollar Tree, to be located in the spaces formerly occupied by Bandon Golf Supply and Bree’s.

The rest of the stores in the shopping center will stay where they are, Dickerhoof said, with a slight remodel at some point to Subway. Stores include Glitter ‘n Glo, US Cellular, LydiAnna’s Laundromat, Hands & Tans Day Spa, Begin Agains resale and collectibles shop and Subway.

In addition, Ray’s Food Place has a longterm lease and isn’t anywhere, going Dickerhoof said. The plan is to fix up the front of the grocery store so it looks nicer from the street, he said.

Dickerhoof Properties owns about two dozen similar properties throughout the Northwest.

“We’re long term,” Dickerhoof said. “It’s a great location and clearly the only ‘center’ in Bandon. It’s our goal to fix it up and manage it over the long term.”

He said in a few weeks a design will be finalized.

Tiffany’s to Rite Aid “New look, same smiles,” that’s how Sabrina Nevitt describes the change of Tiffany’s to Rite Aid. Nevitt is the new manager of the Bandon Rite Aid and for-

Gabe has been doing really well so far, his mom said.

“His biggest fear is having to get a shot!” Just yesterday we had to get his pre-op blood work done in Coos Bay and he had a pretty hard time with that. So, now I think he might be a little more worried about the surgery.”

After the surgery, Gabe will spend three to four days in the hospital, and will be out of school for at least two weeks.

“He is really bummed about that because he loves school and is really going to miss seeing his friends,” Sabrina said.

But she is so touched by the community’s response to his condition.

“We have been amazed by the way this community has rallied around us,” she said. “It is such a blessing to see God’s love poured out through the people of Bandon. We love our town and are so thankful for the caring people here who want to help any way they can.”

■ from Page A1 mer manager of Tiffany’s, moving up from assistant manager after Dennis Thomason left to manage Bandon Golf Supply.

Rite Aid Pharmacy Saturday reopened morning and it won’t close during the remodel, but the front end of the store will be closed for about a week and a half.

New business hours will be 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.

Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Saturday and 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday.

The store will be completely rearranged, with new floors, new paint and new shelving, Nevitt said. The entire store eventually will be completely gutted and but those redone, changes will be phased in. Phase one is a complete remodel of the store. Phase two will be an expansion of the pharmacy to feature a consultation private room for advanced clinical services for pharmacist Tony Arriola, who will remain at the store.

The store will have coolers and a freezer, will sell wine and beer, ice cream, some food items and convenience foods. Prices will be competitive.

“Nothing has been done to this building for 25 years except the trim on the inside walls,” Nevitt said.

“We will have all brand new inventory. All of the old inventory was closed out and sold.”

All the 16 former Tiffany’s employees will continue working there.

“We’re all really excited,” Nevitt said. “It will be great for the community and pricing will be so much better than Tiffany’s could offer because Rite Aid can buy in bulk.”

According to Kristin Kellum of Rite Aid, although open and fully stocked, the store is currently undergoing a wellness store remodel and construction is projected to be completed end of April or early May. Once construction is completed, the store will feature hundreds of new health and wellness including products, organic and gluten-free foods, on-site “Wellness an Ambassadors,” expanded caregiver section, all-natural personal care and home care products, extensive line of GNC wellness supplement products, fitness and workout equipment and a bigger wellness magazine and book section.

All prescriptions being filled at Tiffany’s Drug Store has been transferred to Rite Aid. A ribbon cutting ceremony will be held once the remodeling is complete.

Business “Sea World has given us a global platform to

present our powerful art to educate a world audience about how plastic pollution is posing a dangerous and perhaps catastrophic threat to the world’s oceans and sea life.”

— Angela Haseltine Pozzi

Business Fair returns April 17 BANDON — Businesses will once again showcase their products and services at the second annual Bandon Chamber of Commerce Business Fair, to be held from 1 to 7 p.m.

Thursday, April 17, at The Barn, 1200 11th St. S.W. in City Park.

“The Bandon Chamber of Commerce wants to help promote and increase awareness of our businesses during the 2014 season,” said chamber executive director Julie Miller, “and we can think of no better way to do that than to make a positive and memorable impression on those

individuals, including front-line employees and volunteers, service organizations, chamber members and the public, who regularly help Bandon visitors access local goods and services.”

More than 40 local businesses will be showcased at the event and each will offer giveaways, samples and promotional materials as well as a short presentation of what their business has to offer.

The day also will feature prize drawings and a nohost wine and beer bar from 4 to 7 p.m.

“This event was very

popular and well attended last year,” Miller said.

The event represents an opportunity for local shoppers to get to know their retailers better and hear about new product offers, said Coastal Mist co-owner Kevin Shaw, chairman of the Bandon Business Fair.

“This is the best opportunity to get to meet and learn about 40 of your neighborhood businesses in one room,” Shaw said.

The public is invited to attend any time during the day or evening. For more information, contact the Chamber at 541-347-9616.

Sterling to become Banner Bank Contributed photo

Bandon puffin flies to SeaWorld This tufted puffin was created in Bandon with trash collected on local beaches and now is on display in SeaWorld in San Diego.

Washed Ashore sculptures installed at SeaWorld Bandon Western World

BANDON — A giant 16-foot-long parrot fish and an 8-foot-wide octopus, made of marine and ocean debris and created by WashedAshore.org, are part of a unique 12-sculpture presentation that premiered at SeaWorld Parks on March 21.

The sculptures, built by South Coast community volunteers and guided by the hand of artist and veteran educator Angela Haseltine Pozzi, are designed to teach children and adults about the dangers to fish and sea life posed by the enormous amount of plastic debris and other pollution that exists in the world’s oceans and waterways.

Four sculptures will be featured at SeaWorld Parks in Orlando, San Diego and San Antonio as part of SeaWorld’s 50th Anniversary “Sea of Surprises.”

“SeaWorld has given us a global platform to present our powerful art to educate a world audience about how plastic pollution is posing a dangerous and perhaps catastrophic threat to the world’s oceans and sea life,” Pozzi said.

In addition to the sculptures at SeaWorld, Washed Ashore has a traveling educational exhibit of up to 18 sculptures that continue to be placed at aquariums, zoos, museums, colleges and science centers. The exhibit uses its aesthetically powerful sculptures of sea life, including fish and turtles, to draw the attention of children and adults. Through educational signage and programs developed with the hosting venue, lessons are taught and the public becomes educated to a huge environmental problem that threatens us all.

As an indication of the importance of the issue and Washed Ashore’s impact, The Smithsonian Institution

SOUTH COAST — Sterling Bank announced in a letter to its customers that it has entered into an agreement with Banner Bank to purchase Sterling’s branches in Bandon, Coquille, North Bend, Riddle and two branches in Coos Bay. The timeline for the Banner transition overlaps with Sterling Bank’s merger with Umpqua Bank. For a short time, customers will see the Umpqua brand in some places, the letter said.

The Bandon, Coquille, North Bend, Riddle and two Coos Bay offices will remain branded as Sterling, but customers’

online and mobile banking experiences will have Umpqua branding.

The turnover won’t take place until this summer.

Customers can continue to use checks and debit cards without interruption until they receive new ones from Banner in early summer.

Customers’ Sterling passwords and PINs will stay the same, as will online features and services.

“You are and will remain a Sterling customer until the transition to Banner is complete,” the letter stated.

During the transition period, when customers go to www.bankwithsterling.com, they’ll see a pop-

up screen that will direct them to the transition site, www.umpquabank.com/h ello-sterling. A special landing page will direct customers to any link they may need, as well as Sterling product and service information.

Mobile banking can still be accessed through the app or mobile website.

They will look slightly different.

For more information, those interested can call their local branch the Customer Care Center at 800-650-7141. Customers may hear the Umpqua name when calling the Customer Care Center or accessing mobile banking.

BASEBALL/SOFTBALL A short-handed Bandon baseball team lost both its games in the Umpqua Valley Spring Break Tournament, while four of the senior starters were in Hawaii for a spring break trip.

The Tigers fell 30-7 to Monroe and 14-4 to host UVC, though the team played much better in the second game, coach Jay Ferrell said.

He praised the young players who were thrust into duty in new positions, including a few in their first baseball games

at the high school level.

Shawn Hammonds and Tristan Green both had hits in their first official at-bats for the Tigers. In the second game, Quinn Hamblin had a double and scored two runs. Kohl Watson, who had just joined the team after the state dance championships, had a single and a stolen base at the plate and played shortstop the first game and catcher the second so Coleton Jackson could pitch.

Jackson had a strong game, Ferrell said, adding Quentin Coomer pitched well the first game, but was hampered by errors from the defense. visit The Tigers Reedsport today — the game originally had been scheduled for Friday.

The baseball and softball teams both have a doubleheader at Oakland starting at noon Saturday.

Next week, they host Gold Beach on Tuesday and the team hosts softball Waldport on Monday.

A pair of brothers from Bandon were among more than 15 students from Coquille Martial Arts who competed in a recent tournament hosted by the school in Coquille.

Coquille Martial Arts and CREATE Martial Booster Club co-hosted the traditional martial arts tournament, drawing competitors from Oregon and Washington.

Jacob Valleli, age 13, place first in sparring and second in both forms and weapons in the advanced division for his age group.

Luke Valleli, age 9, was second in weapons and third in sparring and traditional forms, also competing in the advanced division of his age group.

In a traditional tournament, the focus is on the older forms styles with traditionally weighted weapons, fewer gymnastics forms, and lightpoint contact sparring to show off clean technique and good control.

“We believe it is important to focus first and foremost on the traditional aspects of any art, in order to learn the

The Vallelis are veterans of tournament competition, while many of the students were in their first tournament.

The event was the first tournament of the spring season, and Coquille Martial Arts has plans to attend several more, including two that are strictly taekwondo events with Olympic-style sparring, as well as the Pacific

Jewel Tournament in Portland.

Coquille Martial Arts believes that competing in different styles gives students flexibility both physically and mentally, Saxton said.

The next event Coquille hosts is its popular fall tournament, to be held Nov. 8 at Coquille Community Center.

The Karate Booster Club used the event partly as a way to raise funds for scholarships for students who can’t afford to enter tournaments.
