Jan. 31 Deadline Approaches for Writers Read Entries

Submitted By: nmccarthy1276@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Submissions for the Cannon Beach Library’s Writers Read Celebration are due on Jan. 31.
A rising tide lifts all boats, and for the Writers Read Celebration, writers will find themselves floating in ideas focusing on this year’s theme: “Rising Tide.”
In its seventh year, Writers Read offers writers of all ages from everywhere the opportunity to
write on a specific theme. All unpublished written formats will be considered (essay, story, science fiction, poetry, haiku, script, etc.). The deadline for submissions is Jan. 31.
The theme “Rising Tide,” could flow in myriad directions: anticipation of change in a person’s life, relationship or community. It could signal an approaching flood or tsunami. Maybe it brings opportunity, promise, social justice. Or, perhaps the tide rises just before a fall.
A panel of volunteers will select 10 to 12 works to be read by their authors during the Writers Read Celebration on March 7 in person at the library or via Zoom.
Authors are limited to three entries with a 600-word maximum per entry.
Submissions should be in Word format. Include a separate cover letter with the writer’s name, email
and phone number. Please do not include the author’s name or contact information on the entry
document so authors remain anonymous to the reading panel.
Entrants should email submissions to info@cannonbeachlibrary.org
The NW Authors Series Committee sponsors monthly author presentations and other events at the
Cannon Beach Library. A recording of last year’s Writers Read Celebration is available on the library’s
website, cannonbeachlibrary.org/events-and-programs/recorded-presentations. It also appears on the
library’s YouTube page.

Update on Appeal of Nedonna Wave Planned Unit Development

Submitted By: lyndsey.nccwp@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Update on the Appeal of the Nedonna Wave Planned Unit Development:
As most of you know, the RB City Council voted unanimously in December to deny the Appeal of the Nedonna Wave PUD. Thankfully, Oregon Shores Conservation Coalition has filed an appeal with the Land Use Board of Appeals (LUBA). Oregon Shores is getting legal help from the Crag Law Center.
We hope this action will help prevent further development in the area for several important reasons: First, this land is a wetland that deserves protection; second, the development would be built on top of an aquifer, which serves as Rockaway Beach’s backup water source, and could pose a risk of contamination; finally, Nedonna Beach has only one road (egress) which is already insufficient in case of emergencies such as a medical emergency, floods, fires, storms, ocean surges and tsunami. There are already 360 homes in this area, adding more would exacerbate this safety concern.
Pictured is a map of the proposed PUD with a circle around lots 17, 18 and 19. Also included are some photos of what these lots look like right now. For reference, the blue line represents Song St, and the Green line is Kittiwick St.
Crag Law Center is doing this legal work pro bono, and would be grateful for any donations.

As a matter of necessity and regardless of land ownership, NCCWP demands no more logging and no more pesticide spraying within our drinking-watersheds. Safe drinking water and clean air are part of the public trust that we all are entitled to have. Please help North Coast Communities for Watershed Protection safeguard and restore our drinking watersheds.

North Coast Locals: Install an EV Charger at your Home or Vacation Rental

Submitted By: lydia@ecobadlandz.com – Click to email about this post
Hey neighbors!

We’re Ranger EV, a small, Portland-based startup with roots right here on the Oregon Coast in Manzanita. Some of us live in Portland and one of our team members, Lydia, is lucky to call this beautiful coastline home! We’ve teamed up with local Manzanita business, Sunset to Sunset, to bring something exciting to the Oregon Coast: Ranger Stations!

What’s a Ranger Station?
A Ranger Station is more than just an EV charger—it’s a way to make your home or vacation rental a haven for electric vehicle travelers while helping reduce carbon emissions. Whether it’s in your personal driveway or for your guests at your vacation rental, a Ranger Station lets people charge while they sleep—no more detouring to fast chargers in Tillamook or Warrenton.

Why Ranger EV?
We’re engineers, surfers, writers, outdoor enthusiasts, software developers, scientists, and environmentalists who share a deep love for the PNW. We understand the magic of the Oregon Coast and we want to protect it and make it more accessible for electric vehicles.

By hosting a Ranger Station, you’re joining a mission to:
– Ease EV travelers’ “charging anxiety”
– Welcome more visitors to your home or rental
– Offset energy costs with easy shared payment options
– Be part of a growing community helping to make EV travel more sustainable

We’re already working locally and would love for you to join us. If you’re a homeowner or own a vacation rental and want to add an EV charger, let’s chat!

Check out the links below to learn more:

– Homeowners: rangerev.co/your-driveway/
– Vacation Rentals: rangerev.co/vacation-rentals/

If you have any questions, feel free to respond to this email address or reach out through our website, www.rangerev.co/contact-us/

Cheers,
The Ranger EV Team
