Walking for awareness of canine cancer By Steve Lindsley Bandon Western World
BANDON — A familiar sight will be traveling through town in the next few days — a man walking with his dogs. However, this man and his furry friends are walking for a cause. The kilted Luke Robinson, of Texas, and his dogs Hudson and Indiana are currently traveling along the Oregon coast as part of an effort to walk from the Canadian border to the Mexican border to raise awareness of canine cancer. He recently completed a stretch through Florence and is headed south this week. Robinson says he’s amazed at the numbers of people who have stopped to talk. “We’ve had the most people ever stop,” he said of his walk along the coast. “They ask if the dogs need water or food or if I need a place to pitch a tent overnight. In Washington state, actually, no one even stopped us at all.” Robinson says the walk started May 10. He took a little break in Florence so Hudson could heal an infected paw.
BANDON — A portion of the Niles’tun Unit of Bandon Marsh National Wildlife Refuge was treated with the mosquito larvicide Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis, or Bti, on Sunday, July 13, by airplane. This is the sixth time Bti has been applied to the Ni-les’tun Unit of the Refuge and the second application by air this summer. The mosquito larvicide was not applied to the nearby Coquille River or to lands around the Ni-les’tun Unit of Bandon Marsh Refuge, according to a press release from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. “Using a fixed wing aircraft, granular Bti was applied from very low altitude to reduce drift,” said Dan Markowski of Vector Disease Control International, the Coos County Public Health contractor that conducts the larvicide applications. Bti is a naturally derived larvicide that kills mosquitoes in their aquatic immature life stages. Bti targets mosquito larvae and is not toxic to bees, moths, butterflies, fish, mammals or birds. The mosquito larvae are only susceptible to Bti for a few days after they hatch and must be treated during that time. A large portion of the marsh will be flooded by the current high tide series and needed to be treated with Bti. Using the airplane to apply the mosquito larvicide is the most efficient way to treat such a large area, over 170 acres, of the marsh. Some areas of the marsh will also be treated by hand with backpack spreaders to reach mosquito breeding pools not reached by the aerial application.

The kilted Luke Robinson and his dogs, Hudson and Indiana, are walking along U.S. Highway 101 in a trek from the Canadian border to the Mexican border. His trip will take him through Reedsport, North Bend, Coos Bay and Bandon in the next few days. That paw is healed and Hudson rejoined his friends Monday to continue the walk. Otherwise, things have been good. “It’s been wonderful,” he said. “I clarify to people that my mission is not fundraising. The mission of this walk is not fundraising. It’s education and awareness. It’s my job to be out there talking with people and educate them. “We’ve met really wonderful people
and just the backdrop of the walk ... the Oregon coast has been breathtaking. Really magnificent. Everyone said you’ve got to go the Oregon coast and I understand why now.” Although, he admits, he has a fear of heights and the hill to Sea Lion Caves, north of Florence, was challenging. The highway runs right next to a cliff.

Firefighters training for wildland fires in Langlois By Thomas Moriarty Bandon Western World
LANGLOIS — As South Coast families were enjoying fireworks and hot dogs on the Fourth of July, newly minted wildland firefighters were learning how to extinguish the flames that would likely follow. John Flanagan, public information officer for the Coos Forest Protective Association, said his agency has been running wildland firefighting classes at Camp Fircroft near Langlois for the past three years. The trainees, a mix of CFPA and BLM personnel, received the most basic level of firefighting instruction. Their training will continue throughout their time as firefighters.

Motorist robs, attempts to kill hitchiker GOLD BEACH — A 56year-old Washington man faces robbery and attempted homicide charges after state police say he attacked a hitchhiker he picked up in Curry County. According to Oregon State Police, Samuel Nils
Strom, of Lynwood, was arrested the evening of July 12 at a home west of Brookings after troopers spotted his vehicle in the driveway. He is charged with attempted criminal homicide, first-degree robbery and menacing.
A Canadian hitchhiker, Daniel Dedard Guau, 28, told state troopers that afternoon that Strom had picked him up on U.S. Highway 101 south of Gold Beach. Guau said that as the pair drove towards Brookings, Strom pulled a knife on him and threat-
ened to kill him. After slashing at Guau with the knife and forcing him from the vehicle, Strom allegedly sped off with his passport and personal belongings. Troopers say they found a knife and Guau’s property inside the vehicle.

“The summer night is like a perfection of thought” — Wallace Stevens
A4 • Bandon Western World
Thursday, July 17, 2014
Coastal Harvest needs a new home I learned this week from Lyn Silverman, former coordinator of Coastal Harvest, that the food assistance group has to find a new location as soon as possible. Coastal Harvest is a Bandon gleaning BANDON group that provides a CURRENTS weekly bag of groceries to anyone who volunteers a few hours a month, if able, to the organization. It has been using the gymnasium of the Seventh-day Adventist Church on Elmira for several AMY MOSS STRONG years, but, according to Silverman, the church would like to have its gym back and decided not to renew the low-cost lease. The group has several refrigerators, freezers, tables and other equipment and now must find a location suitable, as well as accessible to its members. Anyone who has an idea where this
important organization can move can call AnnaMarie Chatman, its current coordinator, at 541-551-5073. Bandon has five food assistance programs and all are well utilized. Let’s not leave Coastal Harvest out in the cold. Goodbye Wigwam I was sad to see the Wigwam Bakery has closed because the owner’s wife passed away. The bakery, which has been in Coos County for many years, somewhere in the Coos Bay/North Bend area and in Coquille and finally in Bandon, was a favorite of many locals. The owner made all of the delicious creations, including cookies, pastries and bread, by hand on equipment he’d probably had for 60 years. He and his wife ran the business by themselves and he baked at least a couple times a week while she ran the front counter, and though hard of hearing, she would add up your purchases in her head and cheerfully bid you a good day. I heard they were married for 64 years and her passing was quick, as people had been in the
bakery just a few days prior. Wigwam is now for sale. Anyone interested can call the number listed on their sign. Condolences to the owner on the loss of his wife and daily routine. It reminds me of a place my husband and I discovered in Lincoln City on a trip up there before we were married. We found a tiny bakery right on Highway 101, yet easy to miss, that had been mentioned by many people in a visitor’s journal at the unusual houseturned motel where we stayed. The couple who ran that bakery were also elderly and he and his wife made soft and flavorful potato doughnuts in the Austrian tradition he learned as a young man. We took the time to talk with them and learn more about their story, and went back every time we drove north. One year it was closed and we learned that the owner had died. We talked about that place for years, “Remember the potato doughnut place?” It became a fond memory. One of the things I love most about my job is hearing people’s stories. I’m
sad I didn’t take the time to learn the story behind the Wigwam Bakery and share it with the community. I’m sure it was rich and delicious. Run for office Not happy with local government? Mayor and City Council candidate application packets for the Nov. 4 election are now available at City Hall and I challenge Bandon residents, especially those who like to complain about local elected officials, to consider running for office. The seats up for re-election include Mayor Mary Schamehorn’s and three councilor-at-large positions, currently held by Mike Claassen, Nancy Drew and Chris Powell. The mayor’s term is for two years and councilor terms are for four years, all beginning in January 2015. The deadline for filing is Aug.26,and petitioners must collect 25 signatures from City of Bandon residents. I’m not sure who has decided to run for reelection, but regardless, isn’t it time to step up rather than complain?
Letters School Board must take action I attended the meeting of concerned parents at The Barn on June 16. Mike Murphy, Coos County emergency manager, did a presentation on the Cascadia subduction zone. It is not a matter of if, it is a matter of when the plates slip and produce a megaquake and consequent tsunami. One of the handouts titled Cascadia, from the Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries and published in 2012, contains an article titled Aftermath — Learning from the disaster in Japan: “Mitigate, replace, or repurpose important facilities at high risk such as schools ... especially those on weak soils prone to liquefaction, landslides, or amplification or in tsunami zones.” One School Board member spoke and said that they are waiting for all of the information to come in before they can make a decision and take action. I challenge them to be specific. All I got was a typical political, dodge the question, response. One structural engineer says Ocean Crest has a 100 percent chance of collapse during an earthquake of the magnitude which will occur. I want to know why Bandon School Board members, who claim to have children and grandchildren in the Bandon schools, are willing to roll the dice with the lives of children? Why is the board resisting the idea of moving the school? What piece of the puzzle am I missing? I was informed if the School Board acknowledges the problem, fails to take action then they can be held liable. If they deny the problem exists, then there is no liability! Does this sound familiar? Do you want the children to be used as a political football? We watched a gut-wrenching video of parents sitting in front of Japanese government officials asking why the children had to die. Do we want to have that meeting in Bandon? Wouldn’t it be better to take action now and relocate the schools to an area that not remotely close to the inundation zone? Bandon, now is the time to come together as a community, take action and make sure the children are as safe as possible. Money can be found — where there is a will, there is a way. I know we can do this. Avery T. Horton, Jr. Bandon
Touristy or tragic? Would Bandon rather be known for its scenic tourism and world-class golf, or as the town that ignored the scientifically based warnings and let 268 young children and the 25 teachers and staff of Ocean Crest be crushed and drowned in the expected magnitude 8.1 quake and subsequent tsunami? The Bandon School Board is ignoring the official information given by the Federal Emergency Management Agency and Department of Geology and Minerals Industries. The school board’s hired engineer is using an old map, about to be replaced.

even if the children were at recess when this occurs! As concerned parents we propose instead that the school be moved up, as soon as possible, to the 12 acres available beside the softball fields. Modern Building Systems, based in Oregon, can replace the school in 90 days for under $1 million.

Learn about the Masons Many members of the Bandon Masonic Lodge have become aware that some of our neighbors “know” things about Freemasonry that simply are not true. Some of us have become convinced that this lack of information and/or misinformation is detrimental to the well-being of our ancient fraternity. We have therefore established an outreach program to cure this perceived problem. Some of us have agreed to meet every Wednesday morning at 7 a.m. at the Minute Café for coffee and conversation. We would be very pleased to include all and sundry in civil discourse upon many topics, but particularly the truth about Freemasonry. Bill Russell Bandon
Year of the Horse Horses! Whether they are thundering over the Mongolian Steppes; rising from the ocean on huge white wings, Pegasus style; carrying Alexander to victory and conquest over the known world; or trotting along pulling a surrey-with-the-fringe-on-top, horses have neighed, whinnied, and galloped into our hearts for millennia. Every little girl dreams of owning one — who can forget the young Liz Taylor riding National Velvet? Where would the Lone Ranger be without Trigger? Even our gas-guzzling transportation boast about its “horsepower.” This year is The Year of the Horse according to Chinese Astrology (the seventh animal in a line-up of twelve) and Bandon is celebrating with the largest summer art show ever on the Bandon Boardwalk: 244 paintings including 188 by Bandon students in grades K-12, and 56 by adults ranging from some of our finest local professionals to horse enthusiasts trying their
hand at painting in acrylics for the very first time. The show was made possible by a $5,000 grant from AVK Arts to the Port of Bandon. Part of that grant made it possible to fund two very fine artists who are also extraordinary teachers to work with the Bandon Students: Susan Lehman worked with the kindergarten through fourth graders at Ocean Crest Elementary School, while Vicki Affatati worked with the students at Harbor Lights Middle School. The show will remain on display through the month of September, with prizes being awarded in both student and adult categories on Saturday, Sept. 13, during Cranberry Festival. You can vote for your favorites at Bandon Bait and Tackle on the boardwalk. Prize-winners will also be selected by two professional artists, Elaine Roemen of Port Orford, a well-known painter of horses (among other subjects) who runs Triangle Square Gallery in Port Orford, and Karin Richardson, a glass artist and installation artist from North Bend who has been featured on Oregon Art Beat and who was born in The Year of the Horse. People born in the Year of the Horse are said to be “bright, open, cheerful and fun-loving” with a “sunny disposition and natural charm.” They are party animals; they like to run around in herds! Thanks are due to the following businesses and clubs which made this project possible: Bandon TrueValue Hardware for donating the paints and painting supplies to the schools; Pat's Printing for donating the paper to Ocean Crest Elementary School; Bandon Supply for providing at cost the MDO Board (plywood coated with a surface used by sign-painters) and cutting it up into 18" x 24" panels; Art-by-the-Sea Gallery, which served as headquarters for artists to procure their boards to paint; our local 4-H club, The Bandon Sea Horses (with Marianne Kristensen and her daughter Sueanne Williams holding the reins) for bringing two of their steeds to Ocean Crest Elementary School on Earth Day, so all the children would have the chance to get up-close-and-personal with a real live horse; Cleone Reed for donating her time, photography skills, and publishing expertise to create an online book commemorating the show (available through BLURB.com (Bandon’s Year of the Horse). No matter what year you were born in, The Year of the Horse is said to be a year of “high adventure and surprising romances.” So trot on down to the Bandon Boardwalk and enjoy the show. Giddy-up!

In and Around Bandon Final weekend for ‘Cinderella Reprise’
Sculptures, classes offered at Art by the Sea
Produced by New Artists Productions, a local youth theater company, “Cinderella Reprise” is a musical comedy and love story retold in an entirely new way. The stage play is written by the producers, Dan and Anita Almich, with an original musical score created especially for this show by their son Michael Almich, a local musician and composer. A cast of 45 young people, ranging in age from 7 to 18, bring the story to life. Comedy abounds but not at the expense of true love as Cinderella and Prince Philip find each other in spite of the mismatch in their stations, the heir to the throne and a poor servant girl. Although an adaptation, “Cinderella Reprise” remains true to the Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm Classic: “Cinderella” or “The Little Glass Slipper.” This production is certain to delight the young and the older who attend. New Artists Productions is in its 14th year serving the communities of the South Coast of Oregon. Their productions are made available to all young people at no cost to the students. The current theatrical company finds students from Coos Bay, North Bend, Bandon, Langlois, Coquille and Port Orford. Final performances for “Cinderella Reprise” are July 18, 19 and 20. Showtimes are 7 p.m. Friday and Saturday and a 2 p.m. matinee Sunday. Admission is $10 for adults, $8 seniors and $5 students (K-12). Tickets are available at Bandon True Value Hardware, 541-347-2506, at the box office prior to each show, or by reservation with the Almichs at 541-347-2517.

Left Coast Jazz comes to the Sprague BANDON — The 36th annual Oregon Coast Music Festival is in full swing, presenting 14 concerts over a two-week period, July 12-26, in various locations in Coos County.

As Ron Miranda of the South Coast Trawler says, “Left Coast Jazz will wrap you in music and drain your troubles away.

Jazz man Langlois resident Will “Zeke” Hubel will perform with Left Coast Jazz on July 25 at the Sprague Theater. attended the New York High School for Performing Arts (along with the likes of Liza Minelli). He studied classical music but also started to learn “straight-ahead” jazz. The school was only blocks from Lincoln Center and Birdland, New York’s jazz mecca, so young “Zeke” was able to hear many jazz greats as a student — Miles Davis, Charley Hayden, Joe Henderson and many others. He and two other teenage students were fortunate to be mentored by the great Sonny Rollins (a tenor sax playing alumni of Miles Davis, the Jazz Messengers, etc.). “We were just kids, and thanks to Sonny, learned how to bring yoga and other healthy habits into playing improv,” Hubel said. “What a great teacher and a wonderful human being!” Hubel became best friends and roommates with another aspiring jazz musician while at NYHSPA, Ray Moldinado. A classically trained trumpet prodigy of Cuban background, Ray was already playing in
professional Latin bands as a teenager. Hubel learned Latin style jazz piano parts from Moldinado and started sitting in when their regular piano players didn’t show. Because of his newly acquired Latin jazz chops, he was able to perform with Tito Puente, Arturo Sandoval, Eddie Palmieri, among others. “I received my ‘higher education’ playing in Latin bands touring up and down the East Coast from Florida to the Catskills,” Hubel said. “By ’71, I was in the restaurant business. I opened the East-West Cookery on Ninth Street at Fourth Avenue in New York. It was just blocks from a whole bunch of jazz clubs, cafes and Off Broadway ‘cauldrons of improv.’” Fast forward to ’91: Hubel meets his wife — and muse, Janet. They moved to San Francisco where they had more adventures in the restaurant business, a stint in the lighting business and formed the band Blue Bossa, playing gigs around the Bay Area. Another big fast forward

to 2011: They decide to leave big cities behind and buy a 1930s vintage ranch house overlooking Floras Creek in Langlois. Hubel has been pleasantly surprised to meet and play with so many great musicians in this relatively rural area. The size and members of his combo, Left Coast Jazz, change from time to time but the current roster of four other musicians is “particularly fine,” Hubel said.

thousands of Bandon residents and visitors who helped build sculptures over the last four years. “The ‘Thank you wall’ is our way of showing appreciation to the many residents, visiting tourists and dedicated staff who have helped us create over 45 sculptures from nearly 12 tons of marine debris in the last four years,” said Angela Haseltine Pozzi, Washed Ashore’s lead artist and executive director. “With over 7,000 volunteers in just one year, we apologize if we could not list or show everyone. But, please know that we could not have done it without you. Hard work by thousands of people has clearly demonstrated that every action really does count. “Both Washed Ashore as an organization and Bandon as a town
are truly stewards of the seas, demonstrating how even a small community can make a positive global impact towards saving the ocean,” added Pozzi. Workshop volunteers this summer will be invited to help build a variety of new sculptures including wall murals and tropical reefs. The entire exhibit hosted by Bandon’s Harbortown Events Center will be open Wednesday through Sunday from 1-7 p.m. The Volunteer Workshop will be open for all ages to participate from 3-6 p.m.
About Washed Ashore The Washed Ashore Project is sponsored by Artula Institute for Arts and Environmental Education, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that was founded by Angela
Haseltine Pozzi in 2010. Washed Ashore is an environmental education project that uses art to raise awareness to the tragedy of plastic pollution in our oceans through community involvement. It has taken thousands of volunteers and thousands of pounds of marine debris to create the monumental sculptures that now make up the Washed Ashore: Art to Save the Sea traveling exhibit. In addition to the exhibit and art workshops, Washed Ashore is currently developing Activity/Action Books and a K-12 curriculum for youth education programs. In addition to the displays at all three SeaWorld Parks, this summer the traveling exhibit can be seen at The San Francisco Zoo and The Virginia Aquarium and Marine Science Center.
Canine “Let’s just say that was breathtaking,” he laughed. Walking through the tunnel on the way to Sea Lion Caves was an experience, too. “I’ve never had a tunnel like that in all my travels,” he said. “I waited for a car to actually come into sight so they could actually see us in the tunnel.” Cars did slow in both directions as they made it through the short tunnel. There have been other challenges. “We’ve had our tough scrapes,” Robinson admits. “Highway 20 I did by myself because it was
■ from Page A1 just too dangerous. That was tough on me. I did 51 miles in two days and had some real close calls.” It’s his second walk of the kind. He, and his dogs, completed a 2,000mile walk from Austin to Boston in 2010 to fulfill a promised he made to his first dog, Malcolm, who died of canine cancer. Robinson says as he walks through cities, he encourages people to stop. “We want people to come out and walk an hour with us; walk a day with us; walk a week,” he said. “Come out an meet the famous ‘fuzzybutts’
and learn about our mission.” He’ll also talk about his foundation, which provides information about cancer in general. “It benefits both pets and people,” he said. “Too often it gets mischaracterized as ‘dog cancer’ or ‘pet cancer.’ That just isn’t the case. Science is showing us that there is a link and there is a reason to encourage studies.” Robinson has been taking donations while he walks. “We’ve probably had 30 to 40 dollars,” he said. “People would just stop by and give a couple of
bucks.” Robinson says people who want to donate to the cause can also log into puppyup.org. Track their progress by v i s i t i n g w w w. 2 d o g s a g a i n s t cancer.com. Hudson and Indiana are sporting Tagg GPS Pet Tracker collars to document their trek. He thinks they’ll hit the Mexican border later this fall. They still have the whole state of California to walk through. He plans to do that on the Pacific Coast Highway. As he likes to say: “Puppy Up!”

Spray All tidal marsh areas in the refuge where mosquito larvae exceed set threshold levels will continue to be treated as necessary throughout the summer, according to the release. Monitoring will be ongoing to determine when Bti treatment is necessary. Funding for mosquito monitoring and treatment with Bti is provided to Coos County Public Health by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Treatment of mosquitoes with larvicide is part of the Integrated Marsh Management Approach to control mosquitoes on the Ni-les’tun Unit of the Refuge through both habitat modification and short term control of larval mosquitoes.

Firefighting
■ from Page A1
The class July 3 focused on managing the wildland-urban interface — the nexus of fire-prone wildlands and human structures. Rural homes don’t have to be completely clear of brush to mitigate fire risk, but homeowners should still exercise caution. Flanagan said fires start when gutters filled with dry leaves are ignited by stray sparks. “(The home’s exterior) can have plants,” he said. “But they should be plants that are fire-resistant.” Flanagan said wildland firefighters spend much of their time in the field fighting blazes started by fireworks and campfires. “It seems that the summer activities we all enjoy and wildfires go hand in hand,” he said. Jeff Wilmarth, one of CFPA’s incident com-
manders, said that during the 2013 fire camp, a wildfire that broke out nearby was used to provide inthe-field training for the class. “Last year was a little extreme,” he said, smiling. Since January, 26 fires and 819 acres have burned inside CFPA jurisdiction. With fuel moistures low going into the summer, federal and state forestry officials are gearing up for what could be another busy season. “All of the predictions are that it will be more dangerous and active fire season than usual,” Flanagan said.

Two excellent reasons to make the trip south By Geneva Miller
WildSpring Guest Habitat
Contributing writer Bandon Western World
PORT ORFORD — Professional kudos are the perfect 10 year anniversary gift for WildSpring Guest Habitat owners Michelle and Dean Duarte, who opened the business in June 2004. The elegant, ecofriendly retreat in Port Orford earned two travel industry nods this year: The Oregon Travel Commission’s 2013 Sustainable Tourism Leadership Award and national Top 10 Eco Hotel list from the TripAdvisor GreenLeaders Program. Comfort and natural beauty are the hallmarks of WildSpring. “It’s an environment that sends the mesBusiness sage that By The you’re Sea cared for,” s a i d Michelle. A visit to WildSpring is a chance to remember what nature and beauty are all about, with really good bathrooms, she adds with a knowing smile. More than one travel writer has left WildSpring lost for words. The setting defies traditional description, with its marriage of elegance and eco sensitivity. Guests will find the plush bedding and inroom massage tables they expect in a luxury urban hotel,while the paths leading from the cabins to the ocean view guest hall let visitors bathe in clean sea air and sunlight filtered through stands of cedar. “Everyone wants to create a better place to live in. People choose to live
92978 Cemetery Loop Road Port Orford 541-332-0977 wildspring.com here because it’s such a pretty, authentic small town,” said Michelle. The Duartes’ goal was to create the kind of lodging establishment that they’d want to live in. Their low-impact development model gained support from the Port Orford planning commission and local contractors, who helped build an ocean view getaway that fit within existing land and water regulations. Only two living trees were removed from their wooded hillside in the construction phase. Michelle and Dean nurture the property’s second-growth forest, wild animals and native vegetation with chemicalfree fertilizers and insecticides. WildSpring guest cabins feature repurposed furnishing and radiant heat systems. Among their sustainably minded partnerships, the Duartes were early participants in the Oregon Travel Philanthropy Fund. WildSpring 2014 awards follow a string of travel industry plugs in publications such as Sunset Magazine in 2012 and USA Today Travel in 2011.

Hawthorne Gallery 571 Jefferson St., Port Orford 541-366-2266 hawthornegallery.com youth living on the Southern Oregon Coast. He’s the son of artists and gallery owners Chris and Julie Hawthorne. Following several years living in California and attending the Academy of Art University in San Francisco, Hawthorne is back home, ready to apply artistic discipline in a region brimming with natural beauty and inspiration. His decision to pursue formal art study met with skepticism from some, he says. So, you want to go to art school? It must be all about sex, drugs and rock and roll, right? Perhaps for some students. For Hawthorne, study is all about honing his craft and learning to work even when he’s not feeling especially inspired. “Some of my best pieces were made on days when I didn’t feel like painting,” he said. As a Pacific High School senior, Hawthorne’s art hit the national scene with a Congressional Art Award and showing in Washington, D.C. In recent years his work has shown in galleries in California and Oregon. Local residents can view his work at the Hawthorne Gallery in Port Orford. As a professional in a family of artists, (award winning jeweler Lisa

Home again Artist Daemian Hawthorne, featured artist at the Hawthorne Gallery Port Orford, describes abstract painting as an alchemical process. Hawthorne and sculptor Steve Kuntz also live in the neighborhood), Hawthorne said his early challenge was to avoid creating pieces that replicated work by other artists in the family. But family encouragement is a benefit, he says. “There’s absolutely a lot of constructive criticism along with tremendous support,” said Hawthorne. “There’s always a reason (for their critiques). And quite often, they’re right.” This summer, he’ll roll up his sleeves in his new studio. Hawthorne and his
wife Kate selected a home outside Bandon with lots of space to work. His goal is to incorporate abstract painting techniques in his figurative work. He’s a new father, so his daughter is a regular model. “I’m having a blast drawing Maya. Babies have these crazy proportions you don’t see on an adult. The fat rolls on her forearm are particularly cute,” he said. He relies on his classical training to plan figurative subject matter, which often feature human subjects. Digital editing allows him to experiment with
light and color values. Hawthorne’s abstract work reveals an underlying geometry, loosely defined by color saturated sections of canvas. Free-flow application of surface lines and swirls illustrate the lighthearted enjoyment Hawthorne experiences in the process of abstract painting. It’s like engineering versus alchemy, Hawthorne explains. In his new series, viewers can look forward to pieces that join planned composition with the magic of abstract expression.
Bass and trout fishing have been good on the South Coast Local lakes : Anglers targeting largemouth bass are reporting good fishing on the South Coast. During the day anglers are having success with plastic worms catching suspended fish 10 to 12 feet below the surface. During the early morning or evenings, bass are more likely to take a topwater bait on or near the surface. Trout fishing has been decent up in Tenmile and Eel lakes. Anglers trolling deep are picking up some nice size rainbows up to 25 inches. North Tenmile Lake has been producing good numbers of large trout because of the 20-foot depth on part of the lake.

C o o s C o u n t y Fa i r G r a n d M a r s h a l Experienced beyond others The 2014 Coos County Fair Grand Marshal is Debbie James, a lifelong resident of Coos County, born and raised in Broadbent. She still lives there. James is no stranger to dairy farming; she grew up on one. From Broadbent, James landed at Myrtle Point High School. As most kids in the local farming communities do, she got involved with 4-H. James painted signs, cleaned restrooms, marked trailer and booth spaces and other jobs around the fairground. Her family has been involved in the Coos County Fair for more than 60 years. Now she is the Coos County Fair office manager after many years of experience working as support staff. For nearly two decades she worked for former managers Harold Clarno, Jim Howe, Glen Gulstrom, Jack Bray, Ron Crook and Cindy Beddingfield. James knows her fair business — her resume includes 4-H member in sewing, baking, and beef, and a 4-H leader who received the Friends of the Fair award in 1993.

Oregon State University Coos County Extension Service Master Gardener Association The Coos County Master Gardeners are at the County Fair again this year. The main focus of the Master Gardener booth will be “Invasive Species — What Not to Plant.” Master Gardeners will offer helpful suggestions on what are more appropriate plants to replace those species that the Oregon Invasive Species Council consider noxious. For instance, the Buddleia (butterfly bush or summer lilac) forms crowded stands along waterways because it grows from broken stems and seeds that wash into rivers during heavy rain. Alternative suggestions for the same look are blue blossom ceanothus which is a native plant or Meyer lilac (Syringa meyeri) as an ornamental. Have trouble identifying those weeds in your garden when they are small? Master Gardeners will also have examples of noxious weeds to help you identify them before they become a problem. Have an insect or plant problem? As every year, MGs will hold a plant clinic from 11 a.m.-7 p.m. each day of the fair to help answer some of those questions. When you drop by the booth, which will again be located in the Horticultural Building, check out the demonstrations being given outside under the trees. Some of the demos being given are fall and winter gardening tips, how to make good compost, working with lavender, creative ways to use recycled materials in your home and garden, building a worm bin, and making hypertufa plant containers. Demonstrations will be held daily at 2 p.m. and 2:30 p.m. next to the Horticultural building. Look for the schedule posted around the fair. When you visit the MG booth, make sure to fill out a ticket for several garden-related prize giveaways. Among the prizes are Pink Lemonade blueberry plants, a mason bee house, veggie earrings and a live strawberry bowl. You don’t have to be present to win! For more information, contact Master Gardener Coordinator Cindy Peterson at the OSU Extension, 541572-5263, ext. 299.

Raised in the Catskill Mountain resorts in upstate New York, Alan Sands began traveling with his father, George Sands (magician and creator of 17 books on magic, balloon sculpture and puppetry), when he was only 3 years old. “People ask how long I’ve been performing; since before I was born,” Sands said. “My father was a professional entertainer. He never had a real job either.” Alan first appeared on stage when he was 3, assisting his father. By 6 years old, Sands was entertaining his own audiences. He won his first talent contest at the age of 12, and he began performing professionally at 17. While attending high school, Alan began honing his skills as a hypnotist at parties. Making a career of it, Alan worked his way through college, doing balloons and performing comedy magic at Fisherman’s Wharf, Ghirardelli Square and Pier 39 in San Francisco. There, he polished his act and perfected his talent at making an audience feel comfortable with him from the moment he walks on stage.
“It’s a specific talent and hard to describe,” he said. “But accomplished street performers understand that when you begin your show, you must make your audience love you so they want to stay until the end.” (And then they give you money!) After taking his clinical hypnosis training in 1997, he became a Certified Stage Hypnotist in 1998. Alan has performed at more than 220 county, state and agriculture fairs, exhibitions and festivals. He has entertained at a hundred colleges, a dozen casinos, multiple extended runs at amusement parks, about 750 company picnics, and dozens of comedy clubs, theaters, conventions, and cruise ships, as well as more than 300 high school shows for grad nights and post-prom parties.

Preparing for entries BY PHYLLIS A. WILSON The four granges in Coos County are again coordinating the Land Products Department at this year’s Coos County Fair. Volunteers at this department will include members from Myrtle, Bridge, Greenacres and North Bay granges along with others interested in helping. The Land Products Department includes field crops, vegetables, herbs, fruits, berries, honey and eggs. There are special divisions for the “largest” and “unusual” fruits or vegetables and fruits or vegetables grown by juniors (ages 12 and under), teenagers (ages 13-18) and seniors (60 and over). Judges will consider all entries in choosing a “Best of Show” award, with a $10 premium and ribbon to be awarded. Nearly 400 entries won first, second or third places at last year’s fair. A “Family Farm Display” is open to any Coos County family. The exhibit may include flowers, fruits, vegetables, canned goods, baked goods, needlecraft and any other
articles made, grown or prepared by the family. The display can also include appropriate props, such as tools or utensils. The display cannot exceed 6 feet in height. Judging will be based on arrangement, quality, variety and originality. “The fair has always been promoted as a family affair and this contest would be an excellent opportunity for a family to enter to showcase its talents, family hobbies and togetherness,” said fair superintendent Phyllis Wilson. The first place display will earn $25, second place, $15 and third place, $10. Also included in the Land Products Department will be the homemade beer, homemade wine and homemade liqueurs and cordials divisions. Fair board policy will not permit any public tasting of any of these beverages — a change from previous years. Judging will take place Monday and will be closed to the public. Brewers who have a business license to sell beer, wine and liqueur may not compete in this class.

&prizes All exhibits in the Land Products Department must have been grown or produced in Coos County by the exhibitor and no person can enter more than one exhibit in each class. “One can enter each of the 326 different classes, but can have only one entry in each class,” Wilson said. Entries will be accepted from 10 a.m.-6 p.m. on the Saturday and Sunday prior to the opening of the fair. All judging will take place on Monday. Complete information on entries is available in this year’s fair premium book, available at the OSU Extension office or the fair office in Myrtle Point, or by calling the fair office at 541-396-2200.

Booth for food savers The Coos County Master Food Preservers will once again host a booth at this year’s Coos County Fair. Located near Culinary and Photography in the Oaks Pavilion, the Food Preservers booth will have volunteers on hand to answer your food preservation and food safety questions. Fairgoers can learn about, and sign up for, upcoming workshops such as pickles, flavored vinegars and sauerkraut, dehydrating and tuna canning — all classes on the agenda for this summer and fall. A variety of food preservation materials — publications and books — will be available for purchase, along with cheese making kits, Clear-jel thickener and more. The MFP booth will be staffed from 10 a.m.-7 p.m. daily. A raffle will be held for a jam/jelly maker package. Stop by and get acquainted with this friendly group of dedicated volunteers, and learn more about what they can do to help you. By Lou Sennick, The World

Food preservation hotline is open for calls
The Oregon State University Extension Service will once again offer its summer food preservation and safety hotline for queries on proper canning techniques, safe recipes and where to get pressure canner gauges tested locally. The toll-free hotline, at 1-800-354-7319, runs 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Monday through Friday through Oct. 17. Extension-certified Master Food Preserver volunteers from Lane and Douglas counties take the calls. Proper techniques must be used to ensure canned
foods are high quality and safe to eat. The hotline is one of several resources, including publications and classes, which OSU Extension offers on food safety. Master Food Preservers who staff the hotline must undergo 40 hours of training. They educate the public about safe food handling and preservation over the phone and at workshops and exhibits. Last year, 460 new and veteran master food preservers throughout the state contributed 20,845 volunteer hours.
Master Food Preservers answered 2,262 calls during the 2013 summer season. About 80 percent dealt with food safety questions. For food preservation information go to http://extension.oregonstate.edu/fch/food-preservation . OSU Extension’s Ask an Expert service also takes online questions about food preservation at http://bit.ly/OSU_AskAnExpert. Additionally, Master Food Preservers run a holiday food safety hotline every November.

Ropin’
&riding the rodeo
The Coos County Rodeo is expected to be as entertaining as ever, even without the usual 4-H pig scramble. The kids events are Friday and Saturday from about 6:30-7 p.m. Events will include calf riding, steer riding and mutton bustin’ and on Saturday night during the adult rodeo intermission — even audience kids 8 and under are invited to the chicken scramble. The catch, mom and dad, is that the chicken goes home with the kid who catches it! The adult segment of the rodeo begins
at 7 p.m. Friday and Saturday. There will be plenty of excitement. The 2 Bucks Rodeo Company and S&J Bucking Bulls will provide animals for bull riding, calf roping and team roping. The local ladies, Sand and Sea Drill Team, will perform; and the Coppertown Clown, Bert Davis, will be in the arena both nights along with his very talented family of dogs. General admission is free. Box seats are available for $30 each or the entire box seating area is available for $250.

& his Muttley Crew
He’s a clown, he’s a barrelman, he’s got a specialty act. He reads the animals and anticipates their every move. Bert Davis is a seasoned rodeo man. His impressive resume shows years of experience in the professional rodeo circuit as a competitor. His experience makes him valuable to riders and ropers because he can move to protect, distract and entertain, all without a second thought. He can prove it with his showcase of buckles. He’s got brawn in the arena with large, angry beasts. His Muttley Crew rescue dogs are a part of his specialty act. They will entertain you with their antics and warm your heart with the loyalty they show to their rescuer. The Coppertown Clown’s resume includes: America’s Got
Talent season 5, third round, 2010; has been one of the few animal acts to perform in Las Vegas; and the first comedy act in 45 years to perform at the 2003 National Finals Rodeo. His Muttley Crew act features rescue dogs who were recognized by National Geographic in 2002. Davis is no stranger to the rodeo. He got his start as one of the youngest bullriders in the nation, at 16, in 1974. For 40 years, Davis has been a card-holding member of the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association. His wife is no stranger to the life of the rodeo either, Frannie Bangert was the 1976 Coos County Fair Queen. You can learn more about the performer at his website, www.coppertownclown.com.

That amount is then deducted from their bill. For further information on becoming a buyer, contact Dave Scolari at 541-396-2836 or Debbie Helms at 541-572-8473. The committee has presented members with more than $64,000 in scholarships since the scholarship portion of the program was started. More than 80 members have benefitted from the generosity of the program supporters. The cakes donated to the auction support the scholarship program. The arena signs help support the auction organization. Arena signs may be purchased yearly for $75. Contact Debbie Helms at 541-572-8473. We will have 7 cakes donated this year for the sale. Frazier’s Bakery, North Bend Safeway, Oregon Coast Culinary Institute, Ray’s Food Place, WalMart, The Mill Casino, and Cake Me As I Am. These same supporters donated last year and the auctioned cakes totaled $4,900 including one cake that sold twice!
