North Oregon Coast Symphony Offers Preschool Story Time With Live Music

Submitted By: sdawagner@icloud.com – Click to email about this post
Bring your preschooler to hear a classic song come alive with this month’s North Oregon Coast Symphony’s free Musical Storytime. This program includes a hands-on musical activity. The featured story will be I Love You a Bushel and a Peck written by Frank Loesser and illustrated by Rosemary Wells. The event will feature a live viola accompaniment by NOCS musician Britton Pierce. Children will hear about two ducklings who like each other – a lot! With vibrant illustrations and a catchy song this book is sure to be a favorite for children and adults.

The second book will be Mole Music by David McPhail with beautiful illustrations. In this story, Mole hears the sweet sound of a violin. “I want to make beautiful music, too,” Mole claims. Mole practices and practices and over time has quite an impact on people around him. Afterwards preschoolers will take part in making their own music just like Mole with provided violins. The violins used in this program were purchased through a grant funded by Clatsop County Cultural Coalition and Oregon Cultural Trust. We thank both organizations for their generosity.

The program will be held at 10:30 Monday, April 6 at the North Tillamook Library in Manzanita.

The free readings for children ages 2 to 5 are planned monthly in partnership with the Astoria Library, North Tillamook Library in Manzanita, and the Seaside Library. Funding for the instruments used in this month’s outreach program come from Clatsop County Cultural Coalition and Oregon Cultural Trust. We thank both organizations for their generosity.

Dory Fishers Event: Kickin’ Sand and Story Tellin’!

Submitted By: chelsea@tcpm.org – Click to email about this post
This is a free event, but due to limited seating, registration is required. www.eventbrite.com/…/dory-fisherskickin-sand… Join us on Friday, April 17th from 6:00 PM to 7:30 PM at the Tillamook County Pioneer Museum for Dory Fishers—Kickin’ Sand and Story Tellin’! Joseph E. “Jay” Taylor III will facilitate a panel discussion & storytelling event with three members of the dory fleet: Ray Monroe, Steve Johnson, and Mike Sears. Light appetizers & drinks for this free event are provided and sponsored by our community partners, Tillamook County Historical Society. Jay Taylor first visited Pacific City in 1959, joined the dory fleet in the mid-1970s, and became a full time resident in 1979. In the 1990s he completed his bachelors and masters degrees at the University OF Oregon and his PhD at the university up in Seattle. Since 1996, he has taught history and geography at Iowa State University, Simon Fraser University, and University of Portland. His most recent book is Persistent Callings: Seasons of Work and Identity on the Oregon Coast, and he is currently writing “47 Percent of the West: The Political Economy of Congressional Conservation.” Ray Monroe is a Sandlake, Oregon local who grew up immersed in the region’s fishing and farming communities. He attended Beaver Grade School and graduated from Nestucca High School. Ray began dory fishing in 1969 alongside his grandfather and father, continuing a family tradition on the water. Today, he serves as co-chair of the Pacific City Dorymen’s Association. Steve Johnson is a third-generation commercial fisherman who began fishing with his father, JJ Johnson, when he was just a middle schooler. Carrying on his family’s fishing tradition, Steve has been actively involved with the Pacific City Dorymen’s Association and has served as a board member for the past 20 years. Mike Sears is a third-generation resident of Tierra Del Mar whose dory fishing experience began with his father Bill Sears who operated Sears Sporting Goods in Pacific City from 1963 to 1979. Mike’s father-in-law, Jack Gilman was a well-known local dory boat builder, further connecting Mike to the rich tradition of the Pacific City dory fleet.

Tsunami 101 Roadshow – Tuesday – March 31

Submitted By: info@evcnb.org – Click to email about this post
**Don’t Miss This: Tsunami 101 Roadshow**

Living on the Oregon Coast means living with the reality of tsunami risk. Whether you’ve been here for decades or just a few years, there’s always more to know — and this free community event is one of the best opportunities we’ve seen to get informed and get prepared.

Regional experts are coming to Nehalem Bay to share life-saving information on what to do before, during, and after a major seismic event. You’ll leave with a clear understanding of what those alerts, watches, and warnings actually mean, and — most importantly — what actions to take when they’re issued.

**You’ll also learn about Assembly Areas** — the designated gathering locations in our region where community members can go during an emergency. Where are they? What are they designed for? What will be available there? This presentation will answer all of that.

**Before you come, download the NVS Tsunami App.**

The Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries has developed a free app (Apple and Android) that shows you at a glance whether you’re in a tsunami evacuation zone — and maps your safest route to higher ground, wherever you are in the county. Presenters will walk through the app during the session, so download it ahead of time and come ready to explore it together.

3/31/26
3-5:30pm
Pine Grove Community House
Free and open to the community

This is a rare opportunity to hear directly from the experts who study and plan for these events every day. We hope to see you — and your neighbors — there. Please share this to anyone in the Nehalem Bay area who would benefit from attending.
