Lauren is also a photographer and poet. She says, “living as an artist is an important way to express what I’m of, see, feel, and appreciate. Art invited me into a portal to make sense of the world and myself, to see the world (and myself) differently, and to bring beauty and meaning to our community, a place that thrives when art is abundant – and, gratefully, Tillamook County is abundant with art and artists for sure!”
Please stop by the Manzanita Library in January to see Lauren’s artworks. Art in the Library series is sponsored by the North Tillamook Library Friends.

This year was one of growth, change, and major milestones. Most notably, we were proud to open the doors to our new Aquatic Center, a long-awaited project made possible through years of community support, partnerships, and belief in the importance of accessible recreation, health, and wellness. Seeing families, seniors, youth, and visitors enjoying the pool has been a powerful reminder of why this work matters.
Beyond the Aquatic Center, this year was filled with programs, events, and moments that brought people together, whether through recreation, fitness, art, youth activities, or simply having a welcoming place to gather. Your patience during transitions, your encouragement of our staff, and your continued participation helped make this year a success.
We are deeply grateful for the trust you place in us and for the role we get to play in supporting the quality of life in our community. None of this would be possible without the support of our residents, partners, volunteers, and local leaders.
From all of us at North County Recreation District, we wish you and your loved ones a joyful holiday season and a safe, healthy, and exciting New Year. We look forward to continuing to grow, serve, and build community together in 2026.
Justin Smith
Executive Director
North County Recreation District
Dear Cast, Crew, Volunteers, Sponsors, Advertisers, NCRD, and Our Incredible Community,
As the curtain closed yesterday on THE HOLIDAY CHANNEL CHRISTMAS MOVIE WONDERTHON, I want to take a moment, on behalf of Riverbend Players Community Theater, to say thank you!
This production was something truly special.
Because of the talent on stage, the dedication behind the scenes, and the overwhelming support from our audiences, THE HOLIDAY CHANNEL CHRISTMAS MOVIE WONDERTHON broke both attendance and box office revenue records and is now the most attended production in Riverbend Players’ history, beating out the previous record holder, A CHRISTMAS STORY, from two years ago.
That distinction belongs to every actor, set designer, stage manager, stage hand, lighting and audio operator, volunteer, and patron who showed up, leaned in, laughed loudly, and made this experience unforgettable.
From the first rehearsal to the final bow, this show was powered by collaboration, generosity, flexibility, and a shared sense of joy. The cast brought heart, humor, and fearless commitment. The crew and volunteers worked tirelessly to make the magic seamless. And our community filled the house night after night, reminding us exactly why local theater matters.
I also want to briefly acknowledge the generosity shown through our charity raffle. Together, we raised $5,520 to support the North County Food Bank and the Nehalem Bay Community Services food pantry. The whole story of that effort will be shared separately, but please know how meaningful that impact truly is.
Riverbend Players exists because of people who believe in creativity, connection, and community, and this production was a shining example of all three!
Thank you for your time, your talent, your trust, and your support. This was a milestone moment for our theater group, and I am deeply grateful to have shared it with all of you.
With pride and appreciation,
Frank Squillo
Director, The Holiday Channel Christmas Movie Wonderthon
President, Riverbend Players Community Theater
