Wheeler – Oregon’s Hampton Lumber has made an extraordinary contribution to the new Nehalem Bay Health Center and Pharmacy by donating the dimension lumber needed to construct the 16,000 square foot facility in Wheeler, Oregon.
The new medical center and pharmacy is under construction with an expected completion in September 2025. The new Health Center will replace and dramatically upgrade an aging and too small clinic that has served the community since the 1980’s.
“This is simply an extraordinary contribution from Hampton Lumber to our project and to the community,” said Marc C. Johnson, president of the Nehalem Bay Health District, the owner and developer of the new Health Center. “On behalf of our board of directors and our community we say – thank you so very much to the management and workforce at Hampton Lumber. We could not be more grateful for this generosity.”
The value of the donated material is in excess of $50,000.
“We’re proud to produce building materials from responsibly-managed forests here on Oregon’s North Coast,” said Kristin Rasmussen, Director of Public Affairs and Communications for Hampton Lumber. “It’s particularly rewarding to see our products contribute to essential infrastructure projects in local communities.”
Hampton Lumber’s gift allows the Health District to conserve some portion of the bond funds approved by District voters in 2023 in order facilitate other District priorities, including the ongoing renovation of the Nehalem Valley Care Center, a skilled nursing facility in Wheeler and the eventual development of workforce housing for health care and other essential workers.
Johnson said he hopes that other firms and individuals will follow Hampton Lumber’s generous lead and consider donations to the Health District’s projects dedicated to improving health and senior care on the north coast.
Johnson said the Hampton Lumber contribution is also significant in that it means the new facility will be constructed with timber grown and manufactured near the new facility. The lumber used on the project will be processed Hampton Lumber’s mill in Warrenton, Oregon.

They will be at the Offshore Grill & Coffee House at 9am for the monthly Coffee with the City.
The Offshore Grill & Coffee house is located at 154 Laneda Ave, Manzanita, OR 97130
We look forward to seeing you!

Thank You from the Cast & Crew of THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN!
To our incredible community,
We extend our deepest gratitude to everyone who supported Riverbend Players’ production of THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN at the NCRD Performing Arts Center.
Your energy, enthusiasm, and warm reception made every moment on that stage genuinely unforgettable.
From the first rehearsal to the final curtain call, we felt the unwavering support of our friends, family, and neighbors.
Theater is a collaborative art; we couldn’t have done it without your encouragement, applause, and belief in storytelling’s power.
A special thank you to the NCRD Performing Arts Center for being such a wonderful home for our production.
To the volunteers, the staff, and everyone who helped bring this show to life, this was as much your success as ours.
We are honored to be part of this vibrant, creative coastal community. Thank you for making this experience so special.
With heartfelt appreciation,
The Cast & Crew of THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN
