Pet Sitter Ginger Matyas

Review for Ginger Matyas – Professional Pet Sitter
I met Ginger Matyas in 2022, she was walking a dog in our quiet neighborhood. I assumed she was walking her own dog, she described it’s personality and ‘likes’ and the dog was confidently sniffing and doing dog things. Then Ginger let me know she was a pet sitter. I felt an immediate connection, honesty, and warmness towards her and took Ginger’s name and contact info. People around here are always looking for a reliable pet sitter, and I wanted to be able to share her name. After that, I would spot Ginger in different neighborhoods of Manzanita, with a dog or two at the end of the leash. And we usually stop and visit a second, or at least give a wave.
Finding out she had been a pet sitter for 42 years came as no surprise.
I feel you will find Ginger will ask all of the right questions about your dog(s) or cat(s), follow your list of ‘to dos’ and lovingly proceed with watching your pet in the most professional and efficient way possible.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Pelican Brewing Partners with PNW Coast Paddling Club as New Community Sponsor
Nehalem, OR. — June 27, 2026 — The Pacific Northwest Coast Paddling Club is proud to announce an exciting new sponsorship with Pelican Brewing, marking the beginning of a community-focused partnership that supports local athletics and coastal traditions.
Pelican Brewing, with locations in Siletz Bay, Pacific City, Tillamook, Rockaway Beach, and Cannon Beach, and soon to open Yachats, has become an official sponsor of the PNW Coast Paddling Club’s Nehalem Bay TideRunners dragon boat team.
As part of this new partnership, Pelican Brewing will host Pint Nights this fall at both its Cannon Beach and Rockaway Beach locations. During these special events in September and October, a percentage of the evening’s proceeds will be donated to the PNW Coast Paddling Club to help support team activities, equipment, and travel throughout the racing season. Dates to be announced soon.
Pelican Brewing has also generously donated a gift basket that will be raffled during the PNW Coast Paddling Club’s Fourth of July booth in Manzanita. Community members are encouraged to stop by, meet the team, and purchase raffle tickets for a chance to win while supporting local paddling programs.
The celebration continues during Manzanita’s Fourth of July Parade, where the Nehalem Bay TideRunners will proudly march with their new team banner showcasing their partnership with Pelican Brewing as well as North County Recreation District (NCRD). Spectators will also have an opportunity to wish the team well before they head to Olympia, Washington, to compete in their first race of the season mid-July.
Adding to the excitement, Pelican Brewing’s iconic “Born at the Beach” branding and logo will soon appear on the TideRunners’ hometown dragon boat. Once installed, the newly decaled boat can be seen during the team’s regular practices on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, as well as Sunday mornings on the Nehalem River.
“This partnership reflects what makes our coastal communities so special—local businesses and local organizations working together to strengthen community connections while supporting healthy, active lifestyles,” said the PNW Coast Paddling Club. “We are incredibly grateful for Pelican Brewing’s generosity and enthusiasm as we launch into a new racing season.”
The PNW Coast Paddling Club invites everyone to join in celebrating this exciting partnership throughout the summer and fall by attending the Fourth of July festivities, participating in the Pint Nights, and cheering on the Nehalem Bay TideRunners as they represent the North Oregon Coast on the water.
About PNW Coast Paddling Club
The PNW Coast Paddling Club promotes the sport of dragon boating while fostering teamwork, fitness, and community involvement along the North Oregon Coast. Home to the Nehalem Bay TideRunners, a women’scompetitive dragon boat team, the club welcomes paddlers of all experience levels and proudly represents the region in competitive and community racing events. The club’s three dragon boats are docked at the Port of Nehalem.

Parade Posters on Sale – Meet the Artist
Submitted By: dillond@nehalemtel.net – Click to email about this post
The commemorative Manzanita Parade posters will be on sale again at the Manzanita Farmers’ Market this coming Friday the 26th from 4 to 7 pm.
The theme for this year’s parade is “Sand, Sea and 250 Years of Liberty.” The parade booth was buzzing with visitors last Friday, preparing for their parade floats, asking questions about the parade route, and purchasing parade posters.
Local artist Lori Dillon designed the 2026 poster. “I always want to include Neahkahnie Mountain in the artwork,” says Dillon. “And besides being a 250-year anniversary for our nation, Manzanita is celebrating a birthday too.” This is an additional part of the colorful poster design.
Dillon will be on hand at the parade committee’s booth to visit and personalize the posters as requested. Parade committee volunteers will also be there to answer questions about the annual celebration.
The weekly farmers’ market is held behind Manzanita’s City Hall, at the corner of Division and Manzanita Avenue.
Proceeds from the poster sales fund official parade buttons and prizes, supplies, support services, bagpipers, and other parade expenses. For pre-registration, volunteer opportunities and other questions visit manzanitaparade.com online.

Friends Foundation Flower Sale Starts!

Friends of North County Recreation District Foundation Start Flower Sales
The Friends Foundation at North County Recreation District has launched its summer flower sales. Proceeds will support scholarships for the District’s youth, fitness, and aquatic programs in Nehalem. The foundation has sold flowers for this purpose for more than 15 years, growing from a fundraiser that raised a few hundred dollars annually to one that now brings in several thousand dollars each year. All proceeds are donated to District programs for scholarships. The Friends Foundation thanks the many flower growers, arrangers, and volunteers who help make this fundraiser possible.
In past years, the flower stand has been located outside Manzanita Grocery & Deli in downtown Manzanita. Friends has now added a second location at North County Recreation District in Nehalem. Flowers will be available there on Tuesdays and Wednesdays at the stand across from the gym door in the upper parking lot. The flowers will be bundled and placed in tin cans. Please take only the flowers and leave the cans; if you need to take a can, please return it.
Flowers will also be available at Manzanita Grocery & Deli Thursday through Sunday. These bouquets will be arranged in vases, and clean vases may be returned to the container next to the display.
Bouquet prices range from $5 to $20, and additional donations are welcome to support the cause. Both the Nehalem and Manzanita stands have lock boxes for payment, and Venmo information is posted at each location.
The Friends Foundation also accepts special orders for birthdays, anniversaries, and other occasions. If you would like to place an order or donate flowers for the fundraiser, please call Patty at 503-368-6081 and leave a message. Thank you for supporting North County Recreation District programs.

Hi folks – first of all a big THANKS to all who came out to the Wheeler pop-up this week (I’ll do it again in mid-July).
NEXT IDEA – I will be passing thru north Tillamook County on my way to the Seaside/Warrenton/Astoria area this very MONDAY (June 22nd) – then returning back south on Tuesday afternoon. There is room for a few deliveries – be they on one day or the other – but I would need to know as soon as possible so as to put together a smooth schedule. It will be LAST CALL for the raw “wild country” Clover honey (not the typical Clover which comes off of farm crops – rather a free-range/different strain variety – super yummy – notes of cinnamon – some say it reminds them of apple pie) – $28 per quart. Also on hand will be the coast range Blackberry (Yaquina river basin) – $30 each, the always-spectacular Marcola Wildflower (quarts $30 – half-gallon $60 – full gallon $115) – and there are a few quarts of Meadowfoam still at $32 each.
Quarts of the current ‘vintage’ real Vermont maple syrup are $25 or you can take TWO for $45. Oregon’s chocolate sauce? OF COURSE – best deal is three-for $25.
Send a text to my cell to get on the schedule: 208-424-0042 – or e-mail: jwmerc@gmail.com – or by instant message to the JW Merc Facebook page. If you have a SPECIAL REQUEST for something not listed now would be a great time to submit it and I’ll see what I can do – see you either MONDAY or TUESDAY in north county – Clatsop County can be part of this as well (along the 101 corridor please) – JW
