Be a Foster and Help Save Lives

United Paws of Tillamook is looking for good Volunteer Fosters for beautiful kittens & cats who have been rescued and need a safe and loving place until we find their forever homes. Can you help? United Paws trains Volunteer Fosters and supplies them with kitten/cat food, medical needs, supplies, and emotional support.

Over the years, United Paws has helped thousands of kittens and cats in Tillamook County who needed homes and medical care. This year, the need has exploded.

ALL of our Volunteer Fosters’ homes are full and we need more help! Can you step up and help us by becoming a Volunteer Foster? All you need is an extra room in your home, a willingness to make a difference, and we will help you with the rest.

United Paws has always depended on compassionate Volunteer Fosters who are willing to offer the security of their homes and warmth of their love to animals who have nowhere to go. FOSTER HOMES SAVE LIVES!

It’s time to celebrate with great music and for a great cause on June 23rd. 

The Nehalem Bay Health Center in partnership with the Nehalem Bay Health District and North Coast Music Project present Rick Estrin and The Nightcats at the NCRD Performing Arts Center. The band has just completed a new album entitled The Hits Keep Coming and we are lucky to be part of a tour that includes dates in Europe.

Construction on the new Nehalem Bay Health Center in Wheeler is scheduled to begin in mid-July and this benefit concert will help ensure that this great new community facility will be all it can be. 

ALL proceeds from the Rick Estrin show will benefit the “finishing touches” needed for the new Health Center. A $100 VIP ticket will give you a great seat for the show, as you also contribute to the vision of improved health and senior care on the north coast. General admission seats are also available for $35.

You’ll also be the first to hear some exciting news about the new Health Center. 

Don’t miss the show on June 23rd at the NCRD Performing Arts Center. A pre-concert wine and beer reception will begin at 2:00 pm. The music starts at 3:00 pm

Awe Delight Joy Savoring Why it’s SO important, especially now

Submitted By: kathiejhightower@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Hello Conscious Aging and Community Connection Friends,

The goal of the Conscious Aging and Community Connections Program is to bring people in our community together to get to know one another at a deeper level and to encourage one another to live our best possible lives.

The Conscious Aging and Community Connections Program is held on the second Monday of each month from 2-4pm. This program is sponsored by Pine Grove Community House which allows us to keep admission at $ 5 per session. All money received goes directly to Pine Grove.

Everyone is welcome to join us.

Next EVENT:

Monday, May 13, 2-4 pm join us for a presentation by Kathie Hightower, on Awe/Delight/Joy/Savoring: Why it’s SO important, especially now, and ways to add these experiences into your daily life. Believe it or not, researchers have done extensive research studies on Awe and Joy and Savoring. Join us to learn why these topics matter to you, especially as we age, and learn simple exercises to add more of these into your own daily life. Let’s choose the antidote to the current negative news spiral. Choose Joy. Here’s how.

Kathie dove into this subject many years ago and in fact published a small book on Simple Joys. She returned to study more current research to prepare this presentation for you. Kathie spent many years traveling the world, doing keynotes and workshops on topics like Jump Into Life, and Joyful Living. This is a mini-presentation.

DON’T FORGET: Bring a pen and a book or magazine to write on…we’ll have handouts ready for you to fill in.

Doors open at 145. Program starts right at 2pm.

If you have questions, contact Kathie Hightower at kathiejhightower@gmail.com.
Upcoming events:

June 10, The Art of Gathering: Community building, Getting to Know Your Neighbors

July 8, Home Exchanges and Workaway: How They Can Work for You, with Guest Presenters Edith Rohde and Jill Turner

August 12, Enrich Your Life Now, No Matter Your Age; yes, into your 80’s & 90’s and beyond

Our committee is busy planning future topics. We’ll send out announcements as they get finalized.

If you have suggestions for topics you’d like to explore in this group, please let me know.

Also, let me know if you no longer want to receive emails about this program.

Need to borrow or rent cargo rack carrier for SUV

Submitted By: wooly@core.com – Click to email about this post
This item needed for just a week, is one that inserts
into a 2 inch receiver on an SUV. We won’t have over 200 pounds on it, maybe even half that.
Just need a bit more room so the vehicle isn’t overloaded. Our hope is that somebody in BBQ land has one sitting collecting dust somewhere. We would need to pick it up by May17 latest.
May even opt to purchase afterwards, if that’s your desire.
Please email if you do. wooly@core.com
Thanks so much.

Submitted By: franksquillo@gmail.com – Click to email about this post

MEET THE CAST OF ‘THE PLAY THAT GOES WRONG’ OPENING MAY 31st AT THE NCRD PERFORMING ARTS CENTER:

Bryonie Arnold as Florence Colleymoore

After a 20-year hiatus, Bryonie returned to the stage for the second time in last December’s smash hit A CHRISTMAS STORY.

Her third performance adds another comedic role to her resume.

Bryonie lives in Manzanita with her husband Eric, son Oliver, and their puppy.

She is passionate about art, animals, and weaving magic, wonder, and enchantment into the world.

THE PLAY THAT GOES WRONG
By Henry Lewis, Jonathan Sayer & Henry Shields
Directed by: Frank Squillo

Part Monty Python, part Sherlock Holmes, this Olivier Award-winning comedy is a global phenomenon guaranteed to leave you aching with laughter!

Welcome to opening night of the Cornley University Drama Society’s newest production, The Murder at Haversham Manor, where things are quickly going from bad to utterly disastrous.

This 1920s whodunit has everything you never wanted in a show—an unconscious leading lady, a corpse that can’t play dead, and actors who trip over everything (including their lines).

Nevertheless, the accident-prone thespians battle against all odds to make it through to their final curtain call, with hilarious consequences!

EXCELLENT COMPOST/MULCH

Submitted By: sheila.bayside@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Dry Straw with some aged duck poop and duck feather molt mixed in. I am told by the organic vegetable farmer that used to get it from me that it is superb for the 60% brown material that compost piles need. Or it can be used as a mulch.

The person who appreciated it in the past has moved out of the area. I am looking for someone to haul this batch away. Location is Bayside Gardens/Nehalem. A pickup can be driven close to where you will load it. I have a wheelbarrow available to use if you have a small pickup and boards for a ramp. A small pickup bed is adequate to hall it.

Load and haul it away and it is yours for free. My two ducks were taken in broad daylight by an unknown predator seven months ago so the material should be dry and easy to load since it is in their duck house and not exposed to weather.

email is ok but I tend to see texts better
Thank you BBQ

Manzanita Talks with Councilors

Submitted By: mkuestner10@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
I attended one of the informal talks with Manzanita City Councilors at the Manzanita Visitors
Center recently. Through May, they’re focusing on Revenue Diversification, specifically asking about the possibility of having a Prepared Food/Beverage Tax in Manzanita.
Our discussion ranged far and wide (though focused on potential pros and cons of a local
Prepared Food/Beverage Tax).
The point of the discussion is that in Manzanita, the city depends heavily for revenue on the
Transient Lodging Tax (generated by hotels and short term rentals (STRs).
Our reliance on these taxes is driven by a very low property tax rate, (Manzanita property
owners pay (rounded) .42 per $1,000 of assessed value. Compare this with Bay City, where
property owners pay (rounded) $2.50 per $1,000. Of assessed value)
So, what other options do we have to pay our bills and assure a livable city?
Cannon Beach, Ashland and Yachats all have a Prepared Food Tax of 5%.
Ashland has had theirs for 30 years, followed by Yachats and most recently by Cannon Beach.
The “beverage” (if included) excludes alcohol.
There are a few more Conversations with City Councilors scheduled. I encourage
friends/neighbors to attend, to comment, discuss and learn from one another.
The remaining discussions scheduled at the Manzanita Visitors Center are:
May 14 (Tuesday), 1-3pm
May 22 (Wednesday), 1-3pm
May 28 (Tuesday), 10-12noon
To be sure there’s room at the Visitors Center, they ask us to reserve our seats:
