Art in the Manzanita Library

Submitted By: susantone@nehalemtel.net – Click to email about this post
NTLF Art in the Library series presents the works of local artist Brian Postle for the month of June in the Manzanita Library. Brian shares: “After visiting Manzanita for 25 years with my husband Pete, we retired here three years ago. Manzanita has always been our go-to place in the world. I’m a beginner in so many ways as I enter into this new stage of life, consciously not knowing. I feel so grateful for the relationships I am developing, and being surrounded by so much wonderful art and so many accomplished artists; and of course our beautiful and challenging environment.”
The artist can be reached at bpostle57@gmail.com

Art in the Library is brought to you by North Tillamook Library Friends

Thank You 60 yr old White Clover Grange Tables

Submitted By: cindy.obtd@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Hello Tri- Villagers!
We are paying tribute to the service of our 60+ year old dining TABLES, utilized by members of our
community, and beyond, by retiring them.
Yes, these old warriors have participated in birthday parties, weddings, family reunions, meetings,
dances, and other countless events over the years. Families and friends have also gathered together
for celebrations of life, for many beloved residents of our Nehalem Valley, and beyond, in this pioneer
Hall.
But now we feel the time has arrived to usher in a new era of culinary experience at our Grange Hall. As the old adage goes “They have paid for themselves many times over.”
We, at the Grange, have chosen to send out an appeal to all the people, who over the years, have
enjoyed sitting at our 60+ year old friends, to assist us in procuring new dining apparatus, by generously coming together to replace the old(er) with new 8’ TABLES.
New, modern (and easier to move and set up) TABLES set us back around $200 each. To go together (halvsies?) with a friend, or local business to purchase one would be VERY helpful! Heck, we could even inscribe, with a Sharpie, your initials on the underside so your generosity will live on in Grange infamy!!
Also, they would very effectively complement our new more comfortable chairs recently purchased, by the Grange, for the enjoyment of community members participating in gatherings. Thank you, Grange member Constance, for locating, transporting these new chairs, and also the community support!
Seriously, the old stallions are showing their age – aren’t we all? They are heavy, cumbersome to move, and literally falling apart. Time to put ‘em out to pasture so to speak!
To make your much appreciated donation go to www.whiteclovergrange.org, click on the donate
button, enter the amount you would like to donate, then check the comment box and specify TABLES.
Any other comments you might want to share about your experiences at our Grange Hall are welcome also.
Lastly, you can always SEND a remittance to WHITE CLOVER GRANGE, PO Box 188, Nehalem, OR. 97131.
Please specify TABLE in the “For”—- line on the check.
Thank you SO much for your time and generosity! WCG 🙂

May 30th NCCWP Community Meeting

Submitted By: rockawaycitizen.water@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
This coming Thursday, May 30, at 6:30 p.m., North Coast Communities for Watershed Protection will be holding another of its regular “last Thursday of the month” grassroots, public meetings at the St. Mary by the Sea Parish Hall; 275 S. Pacific St.; Rockaway Beach, Oregon. This meeting is open to all those interested in the proposed acquisition of the Jetty Creek Watershed by the City of Rockaway Beach. That watershed is the sole source of surface drinking water for Rockaway Beach. To provide citizen input, the City has formed the Source Water Protection Plan Development Advisory Committee, composed of five people who drink the water from Jetty Creek. Though not part of the SWPPDAC, NCCWP hopes to help shape the discussion by providing constructive feedback to the committee members, as well as making clear what are our goals for the acquisition of the watershed.
Everyone who drinks the water from Jetty Creek, as well as everyone else concerned about protecting watersheds that provide their drinking water, is invited and encouraged to attend. Thanks to everyone who attended the meeting last month. This month, one of the subjects that will be addressed is landslides. There will be a short training session on the use of the State of Oregon SLIDO maps. (SLIDO is an acronym for Statewide Landslide Information Database for Oregon.)
Here are some other topics that may be addressed at the meeting: (1) What questions should communities be asking about their drinking water sources and how they are managed?; (2) What concerns may there be regarding surface water sources, such as Jetty Creek, and groundwater sources, such as the wells the City of Rockaway Beach uses under the Nedonna Beach neighborhood?
Everyone has a right to abundant clean and safe drinking water. This is a basic human right. Please join us this Thursday, May 30, at St. Mary by the Sea to learn about, and discuss, these important issues. (This will be an “in-person”meeting, but it will also be available on Zoom for those unable to attend.)
