Hope Montgomery & The Invasive Species and Katelyn Convery

The Bay City Arts Center is thrilled to announce a special evening of live music on Saturday, November 4th, at 7:00 PM. This event will celebrate the release of Hope Montgomery’s new album, “Lose Your Cool,” and features an opening performance by Katelyn Convery.

Hope Montgomery & The Invasive Species, a local indie pop quartet, will take the stage, led by the mesmerizing Hope Montgomery herself, with Charlie Wooldridge on lead guitar, Geoff Fielder on bass, and Levi Timm on drums. Their music delves into sonic explorations of complex emotional turbulence, complimented by catchy melodic phrasing that you’ll want to get up and dance to.

Katelyn Convery’s latest album Miles Awake boasts polished lyrics and sophisticated soundscapes, backed by a group of distinguished musicians and co-produced with bandmate and collaborator Timothy Karplus. Bittersweet angst and optimism weave through Katelyn Convery’s music, piercing the frontier of modern alt-rock, and harkening back to the edgy era of 90s NW grunge, with textures characteristic of early 2000s indie-pop. Born and raised in Oregon, Katelyn now splits time between Portland and the Oregon Coast.

Event Details:

Time: 7:00 PM
Venue: Bay City Arts Center

Thanks Dixie for your Oct. 30th BBQ post!!!!!!

Finally, the possibility of justice for the billionaire medical tyrants that have injured and murdered so many with their new, experimental mRNA-tech that nobody needed for their lab-engineered coronavirus that was basically the flu!!

THANK YOU!

I hope folks sign-up in droves to sue these tech billionaire rip-off vultures and their banker and intelligentsia accomplices!

As for the monkey dna and the rest of it, idk.

I do know that Fact Checkers and Snopes are partially funded by vax-mass-murderer Bill Gates.

I also know that the makers of the hip “J and J” vax got slammed with a billion-dollar lawsuit for putting asbestos in baby powder. (Happened at the mining level).

www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/johnsonandjohnson-cancer/

So glass shards, monkey DNA, asbestos, etc. why the hell not?

Big Farma sucks. Corrupt through and through.

This stuff is worth investigating, but not by using Gates’ funded Snopes and Fact Checker.

Again, THANKS FOR THE POST DIXIE!!!!

Unfortunately I’m not that hopeful that Oregonians (mostly the Dems) overall will wake up to this giant, sadistic money-making virus/vax Operation Lockstep scam, nope, not hopeful at all:

A CHRISTMAS STORY: Humorist Jean Shepherd’s memoir of growing up in the Midwest in the late 1930s follows 9-year-old Ralphie Parker in his quest to get a genuine Red Ryder BB gun under the tree for Christmas. Ralphie pleads his case before his mother, his teacher, and even Santa Claus himself at Higbee’s Department Store.
The consistent response: “You’ll shoot your eye out!” All the elements from the beloved motion picture are here, including the family’s temperamental exploding furnace; Scut Farkas, the school bully; the boys’ experiment with a wet tongue on a cold lamppost; the Little Orphan Annie decoder pin; Ralphie’s father winning a lamp shaped like a woman’s leg in a net stocking; Ralphie’s fantasy scenarios and more.

POSTED IN BEHALF OF PATTY RINEHART

Hello to North County Voters,
I would like to ask you to vote YES for the North County Recreation District’s Levy coming up on November 7.

As memory serves me, I first started going to the building which houses NCRD when I was in the 5th grade. It was there I met a woman who became one of my lifetime friends. But we’re not here for my history.

What a building this was then and is now too. The building houses a variety of people and projects. Ages I’m going to have to guess, maybe 4-80 years old. And what are all those people doing there? The preschool would be the youngest, then there are the after-school kids, the people who use the fitness center, and the blend of all the people who take classes. So, I’m pretty sure people using NCRD age from 4-80 plus years old. It is a wonderful building that not only goes on for all those years, but also serves so many people.

So many communities would love to have such a building and programs to serve so many people. I must tell you about my special passion for NCRD and their programs are the kids. I don’t want any child to go home to an empty home–which is what their after-school program serves. And it is first come, first serve. Doesn’t matter if you have the full payment or not, you can get a scholarship for this program. Sports programs are also offered to these kids. Right now, it is soccer.

Adults can take classes; I’ve watched the art classes–it’s wonderful. Working out in classes or in the weight room, or the cardio room has helped so many in our community. My mind wants to say, community, classes, and NCRD are good for all of us.

Best,
Patty Rinehart

VERY RARE SHAMAN MADE MASTODON IVORY PENDANTS

Submitted By: tim4surf@yahoo.com – Click to email about this post
I purchased these magical Mastodon Ivory pendants over 40 years ago. They were made by a remarkable old Alaskan medicine man who learned the craft of macrame. Both are beautifully hand carved. The heart shaped (with bark like surface on one side) piece has Garnet, Carnelian, Jade and Jasper beads woven in. The mystical mask contains Citrine Quartz, Jade and Lapis Lazuli beads throughout. The macrame work is just astounding, made of very sturdy high grade cordage. The Mastodon Ivory is of a quality not seen today. These are more like jewelry than craft with the precious healing stones and ancient Ivory carvings. Both pieces are 18″ in circumference and signed. Notice the the small holes that were drilled to affix the cordage. You will not see pieces like this anywhere.

This kayak was purchased last year for $1600 and, due to emerging health issues, it is now beyond my capabillites. It is an innovative design that combines inflatable technology with rigid parts, so that it tracks like a hardshell kayak and is ocean-worthy, yet also collapses to be portable for travel. Asking $1200.00. Location is Manzanita. Please e-mail gretta.siegel@gmail.com if interested.

Connecting the Dots Art Show, Celebrate Sunday, Nov. 5, 3-5pm

Submitted By: telaskinner@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Hello Community Friends,
Over the last few years I’ve been having fun creating meditative designs by connecting dots. This year I started making abstract paintings with acrylic pour paint.

Friends encouraged me to have a show. Glenna Gray let me know the Fireside Room at NCRD was available this month, and who knows what got into me, but I reserved the space. Yesterday Lori Dillon and Glenna helped fill up that space with my creations!

I’d love to have you celebrate with me at my artist opening this coming Sunday, November 5th, from 3-5pm. Michael and my Ferret brothers, Cliff Tuttle and Gary Seelig, will be playing music part of the time.

Hope you’ll stop by Sunday, or during the month of November.

The Community Art Show is up in the main gallery at NCRD in November, and I have 3 pieces in that show also.

Much love, Tela

Our community is immensely richer thanks to NCRD

Submitted By: babbles@nehalemtel.net – Click to email about this post
POSTED IN BEHALF OF STEVE BRIER:

Fellow Members of the Nehalem Bay Community:

I am voting to continue the operating levy for the North County Recreation District. I emphatically encourage you to vote YES too.

Our community is immensely richer thanks to NCRD. When I think of NCRD, I think of the countless hours spent water walking in the pool, many memorable events at the NCRD Theater (It’s a Wonderful Life, Mel Brown, Maria Muldaur, Nancy Pearl,…), community group meetings in the Fireside Room, yoga classes, and much more. As a Pickleball player, I am forever grateful to NCRD for stepping up to build an outstanding Pickleball facility that is enjoyed by people from ages eight to eighty.

If voters fail to renew the operating levy on the November 7 ballot, NCRD’s program services would be cut by about half. That would make all of us poorer. The ballot measure will not create a new tax, it only will continue the existing tax at the same rate that has been in effect for many years.

Sincerely,

Steve Brier
Manzanita

VOTE NO FOR CHANGE

Submitted By: Cpossibility1023@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
VOTE NO FOR CHANGE. I was reminded by a fellow community member of a quote from Albert Einstein who once declared “The world is a dangerous place, not because of those that do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing.”

For those who will vote for the levy out of fear for a reduction in your services, really? The NCRD will not close. The swim program will absolutely continue; the after-school program will not be affected; the Pre-school will thrive; the Performing Arts Center and the Riverbend Players’ curtain, will go up.

What will happen? The Board and the NCRD will go back to the budget and make adjustments. New eyes may need to look for what it will take for the NCRD to be self sufficient. They may look to see if the athletic dept only looks top heavy, based on usage, or is top heavy? Raise class fees to users? Have the Friends of NCRD take Patty’s advice and look for new fundraising ideas? Identify the effectiveness with the company the NCRD board irresponsibly approved $10,000 (the bid was $7,000?) to raise money for the NCRD & pool project?

You may ask: Why is she being such a dog with a bone about VOTING NO for CHANGE?

AGAIN, once you hear, you can’t unhear. As one who has attended many, many board meetings and witnessed over and over and over again the Boards & ED’s dismissiveness of Community questions/concerns, (‘you can’t please everyone’); the disinterest regarding our teens/tweens about their recreation after demolishing the Skateramp (‘they should be grateful, we’re building them a nine million dollar pool)’; the discrimination of the mobility challenged regarding no stage access in the PAC (“I have a disability, you don’t see me asking for special favors”); the ignorance/discrimination of not recognizing there is no street access to the pickle-ball courts (‘do people in wheelchairs play pickle-ball’) the arrogance and non-action to even FORM A COMMITTEE to address any of the above issues (‘73% of the voters passed the levy last time’). Yes, all stated OUT LOUD by the Board and I can’t unhear…

We as Community for Community have the opportunity RIGHT NOW to demand ATTENTION be paid to the INTENTION of the mission statement and interrupt the status queue. Or we can fulfill on Einsteins warning: “The world is a dangerous place, not because of those that do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing.”

The mission statement of the North County Recreation District (NCRD): To promote the educational, recreational, social and physical well being of the entire North Tillamook County community by offering activities for all ages and abilities in an inviting environment.

Swing by and see how inviting/accessible the pickle-ball courts are if you use a wheelchair?

VOTE NO FOR CHANGE!
