Watch the way cool assembly video pakayak.com/why-choose-pakayak/

Although these are my favorite kayaks re their design/ease of set up, storage and transportation, we’re getting older and need to concentrate on using our lighter boats.

Accessories for each Pakayak include:
– a wheeled “suitcase” cover
– attachable all-terrain wheels for transport over rugged landscapes

Each sells new for $1995 (all-terrain wheels 189.95). Asking $400 each or $750 for both.

Rally to Protect Drinking Water for our Coastal Communities

Rally to Protect Drinking Water

and Foster Community Engagement

Thursday, April 25 at 6:30 pm

St. Mary-by-the-Sea Parish Hall

275 S. Pacific St.

Rockaway Beach, Oregon

This will be a grassroots meeting, open to all, who believe we have a right to abundant, safe and clean drinking water. If you are interested in citizen involvement regarding the future of the Jetty Creek Watershed and other coastal drinking water sheds, please attend. At the Oregon Coast, many watersheds that provide drinking water to towns, large and small, have been damaged by clearcutting followed by pesticide spraying. Because of industrial forestry practices and climate change, there are now summer water shortages along the Oregon Coast.

Please join us on April 25 (and on the last Thursday of every month) at St. Mary-by-the-Sea to learn about and discuss these important issues.

This will be an “in-person” meeting that will also be on Zoom (email us at the address below) for those unable to attend in person.

North Coast Communities for Watershed Protection (NCCWP) invites respectful discussion through a sharing of ideas.

Questions? Email us at: rockawaycitizen.water@gmail.com

Dance, Edie, Dance!

April 20th at 7:30pm
The Ten Fifteen Theater
1015 Commercial St – Astoria
www.thetenfifteentheater.com

Drag Sensation EDIE has heard those three words her entire life. First from her parents insisting she perform for guests in the living room of their family home in Portland, OR. Then from her dance teacher who gave her the skills and the confidence to take on the world. From Ballet to Broadway to Cirque du Soleil, EDIE has taken those three words to heart. Dance, Edie, Dance is a culmination of her love of life-long love of dance and all the places her long legs have taken her throughout her storied career.

EDIE is best known from Cirque du Soleil’s hit show ZUMANITY where she starred as the emcee, the “Mistress of Sensuality,” at the NY-NY Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas. During her 13 year run, EDIE performed over 5,600 shows for over 6 million people. EDIE began her professional dance career at the age of 17 with Ballet Oregon. For the next eleven years she danced with Pacific Northwest Ballet, Ballet Chicago, and Pennsylvania Ballet before moving to New York to pursue musical theater. EDIE quickly became a fixture in New York City where she racked up a bevy of awards including Best Drag Queen (HX Award), Best Dance Artist and Entertainer of the Year (Glammy Award). She starred in her autobiographical, off-Broadway show “LEGS!,” performed on the MTV Video Music Awards, appeared on “Sex and the City,” was featured at Wigstock and Broadway Bares, and made her Broadway debut alongside Cyndi Lauper and Alan Cumming in the Tony-nominated revival of “The ThreePenny Opera” at Studio 54. The San Francisco Chronicle “strongly advises seeing the incredible EDIE whose talent and legs go on forever.”

You can learn more about Edie at www.edieentertainer.com.

Dance, Edie, Dance is a special event, and is not included in the 2024 season ticket package. This show is not eligible for Flex Passes or the Arts for All program.

School Choice for Oregon

Submitted By: genedieken@yahoo.com – Click to email about this post
The School Choice movement (also widely known as school voucher or ESA programs) is a project devised and supported by members of the DeVos, Koch, and Walton families, and leaders of the Bradley Foundation among others, in an attempt to ultimately strangle public education.

I have followed an implementation by Gov. Kim Reynolds and the Iowa Legislature. The first wave hit the public schools by unpredictably lowering their funding immediately, thus making committed spending based on budgetary projections a challenge to meet. The Iowa diocesan schools didn’t allow Catholic parents to use the voucher payment to lower their tuition costs, they simply raised tuition instead. The legislature is now in disarray about how to pay for the financial peril created by their shiny new voucher program. It’s the same in several other Red states. www.bleedingheartland.com/2023/07/07/costs-soar-for-iowas-school-voucher-plan/

Oregonians should stay far away from this hobby project by far-right billionaires.

Oregon Book Award Novelist Sindya Bhanoo to Visit Cannon Beach Library

Submitted By: nmccarthy1276@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
When searching for a better life, immigrants often leave their families behind. Author Sindya Bhanoo will share South Indian immigrants’ stories in her prize-winning novel, “Seeking Fortune Elsewhere,” when she visits the Cannon Beach Library at 2 p.m. Saturday, April 20.

Her presentation also will be available through the library’s website, cannonbeachlibrary.org

Bhanoo’s appearance is part of the Oregon Book Awards Authors Tour, presented in partnership with Literary Arts and hosted by the library’s NW Authors Series.

“Seeking Fortune Elsewhere” won the 2023 Ken Kesey Award. The award is part of the Oregon Book Awards, presented annually by Literary Arts to honor and celebrate the work of Oregon’s authors.

“Seeking Fortune Elsewhere” features intimate stories of South Indian immigrants and the families they left behind. It asks how women both claim and surrender power. Occurring in places including Pittsburgh, eastern Washington and Tamil Nadu, these stories focus on dislocation and how immigrants and their families confront the costs of leaving, staying and growing apart,

A fiction writer and journalist Bhanoo also won the New American Voices Award. In 2021, she won an O. Henry Prize. She worked as a reporter for The New York Times and The Washington Post and teaches creative writing and journalism at Oregon State University.
