How can a parent find hope and peace in the unexpected death of a child?

Jane will be reading from her memoir, Firefly: Ashely’s Light, which addresses what she has discovered along the way of processing the sudden loss of her 22-year-old daughter, Ashley, who died in a flash flood while trekking in the Indian Himalayan mountains. Unexpected events before, during, and after the search for Ashley unraveled some answers to Jane’s lifelong search for what is real. Surprising gifts along the way helped bring hope in trying to resolve a death where Jane could not see, be with, or say goodbye to one she loves.

Following the reading and presentation, Jane will answer questions from the audience and sign copies of her book, which Jane will have available for purchase at the event.

To anyone who has a connection to Rockaway Beach or the North Coast of Oregon, there will be a “special meeting” of the Rockaway Beach City Council tonite at 5:30 p.m. at City Hall (276 S. Hwy 101) to consider the resubmittal of the application from the Nedonna Development LLC (Anna Song) to build 28 houses on wetlands in the Nedonna Beach neighborhood.

For the agenda (includes Zoom link) or for a deep dive into any related documentation, go to this link corb.us/city-council/ and scroll down to section CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS (directly under the photos of the Mayor and City Council Members). If you are concerned about saving and protecting the remaining wetlands in Rockaway Beach, it’s important to show up and speak up.

Why it matters:

**The proposed development sets on ecologically rich Special Area wetlands — critical habitat that filters pollution, prevents flooding, and supports native fish.

**The land overlays Rockaway Beach’s backup drinking water aquifer — development here potentially puts the safety of the City’s drinking water supply at risk.

**This land should never have been approved for residential development in the first place. Local zoning and state law clearly protect these wetlands — and this LUBA decision confirms it.

We’re urging City leaders to reverse their approval of this project and protect these sensitive wetlands for good.

Living in this fragile area near the ocean, wetlands, and forested areas, reminds us of the many ways having a healthy ecological system is crucial to our community’s health and wellbeing. Let us all become caring stewards of the wild that surrounds us. The beavers and other wild creatures who depend on the wetlands will thank you. We hope to see you at the special hearing tonite at 5:30 p.m

NCCWP wants no more logging and pesticide use in drinking water sources regardless of who owns the land, and we want an end to pesticide
applications near where people live, work and recreate. Safe drinking water and clean air are part of the public trust that all people are entitled to have. www.healthywatershed.org | www.facebook.com/NCCWATERSHED

Book Reading at The Hoff by my cousin, Jane Ashe, from FIREFLY, a memoir about Jane and Ashley, her 22 year old daughter mysteriously vanished while trekking in the Himalayas–about 20 years ago.

Written lyrically. Poetically. A remembrance of their lives and this life-changing event for Jane.

Please come with a warm welcome.

SAVE THE DATE
THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 4 TO 6 PM
THE HOFFMAN CENTER FOR THE ARTS IN MANZANITA

Please join me in offering a warm welcome to my cousin JANE ASHE of Seattle. She is coming to Manzanita SEPTEMBER 18, 4-6, at THE HOFFMAN CENTER to read from her book FIREFLY.

About 20 years ago, Jane’s 22-year-old daughter ASHLEY disappeared in the Himalaya’s. Ashley was trekking with her college sweetheart—a big trip for them following graduation from the University of Washington. Losing her firstborn nearly broke Jane.

If you have ever lost a child or know someone who has or if you carry enough empathy to embrace the agony of such a nightmare—well, you know part of Jane’s path. Her life changed, of course. She blazed her own trail to a new and rewarding way of life. Come listen to her story. It is inspiring.

This is the story of Jane and Ashley, beautifully, poetically, lyrically written. Jane will read from her book on Thursday, September 18 at The Hoff from four to six.

RHYTHM METHOD will be playing at McMenamin’s Sand Trap in Gearhart from 6:00 to 9:00 on Saturday, September 20th.

This is a big deal for us and we’d love to have our local friends come up to Gearhart for the event. We’re not well known up in that area and we do play sort of an idiosyncratic type of jam band music so seeing friendly faces would be an amazing support that evening – and hopefully you’ll have some great fun along with us!!!

I’ll follow up with details like a location map, pub food menu, etc. in another BBQ post.

August may be over, but the farmers market is still going strong! We have 3 more weeks of fresh food, live music, and artisan crafts before we take a break for the winter. September is one of the most abundant months for our farmers, and with the tourist crowds beginning to thin out, it’s a great time to come to market!

Our farmers will continue to bring the summer goodies we all love: tomatoes, corn, peaches, dahlias, and more. But we should also start to see more fall produce arriving as the days grow shorter and nights cool off, so keep an eye out for more root crops, squash, cabbages, and more.

After a couple week hiatus, we are again tripling your SNAP benefits and will continue to do so for the rest of the season! Sales of our new commemorative poster fund our Triple Up benefits, enabling lower income members of our community to shop at the farmers market and supporting our farmers and vendors. Get yours at the market info booth!

Music this week is by our own market manager Carolina, performing as Corvus Landing. With a voice like sweet bourbon and a unique multi instrumental style, you’ll hear original songs and familiar tunes like you’ve never heard them before. With her own feet playing percussion and a range of electric and acoustic sounds, Corvus Landing covers a range of pop, blues, Americana, rock, and soul.

Opportunity to Share an Important Gift:

There will be a Red Cross Blood Drive on Friday, September 12 from 12:00 Noon to 5:00 pm at Nehalem Bay Fire & Rescue – Station 13. Address is on the attached flyer.

The Red Cross has over 135 years of experience providing humanitarian aid including more than 75 years of supplying blood to those in need. Each pint of blood they collect can help save up to three lives and will touch the lives of so many more. What a great way to pay it forward and make an impact on people in our community and across the country.

We are Thankful to Partner with the American Red Cross in this important work. A good number of you are already routine donors, and THANK YOU!!

If you are able to Donate, please visit RedCrossBlood.org and enter: NBFR to schedule an appointment.

If you would like to join the amazing Red Cross as a Volunteer, please contact the Red Cross at: www.redcross.org/volunteer/become-a-volunteer.html or call 1-800-733-2767 (1-800-RED Cross).

There are many ways you can help, but most importantly we hope you come out to donate at this or an upcoming Blood Drive in our area.

The reason I am sharing this email is because this Blood Drive was scheduled to be held in Manzanita, but that facility is not available. Chief Frank and the Nehalem Bay Fire & Rescue stepped in and has made their venue available for this drive (in addition to their regular Blood Drive schedule).
THANK YOU TO OUR PARTNERS ALWAYS!!

Thank You for your Consideration to Donate; it is truly Life Saving for So Many.
