North County Resistance Protest
Time: Noon to 2 PM
Location: Nehalem
We invite you to join us, even if just for a short while. Please be prepared for wet weather by bringing rain gear, chairs, umbrellas, signs, water, or anything else you might need to stay comfortable. This is a peaceful protest. As families and children may pass by, we kindly ask everyone to use respectful language.
Support the North County Food Bank
How You Can Help: Please consider bringing non-perishable food items or making a cash donation to support our local Food Bank during the protest. If you prefer, you may also mail a check to:
NCFB, PO Box 162, Wheeler, Oregon, 97147
Monthly contributions are especially appreciated, and every donation, big or small, makes a difference for our neighbors in need. Thank you for your generosity!
Civil Disobedience: Know Your Rights and Responsibilities
Date: Wednesday, August 27
Time: 5 PM
Location: St. Catherine’s Episcopal Church, 36335 N. Hwy 101, between Nehalem and Manzanita
Manzanita Grocery and Deli, otherwise known as the Little Apple, sponsors the event, providing all of the food. North County Food Bank volunteers dish up hamburgers, hot dogs, salads, drinks, and desserts to residents, second homeowners, and tourists surprised to find a free meal while walking down Laneda Ave.
While there is no specific charge at the door, the event is a fundraiser for the North County Food Bank, and attendees are encouraged to donate money or non-perishable foods. North County Food Bank faces particular challenges this year as the organization must move from its long-time home at the old Wheeler Hospital. The Food Bank appreciates the generosity of both Chung and Judy Lee, owners of the Little Apple, and all those who contribute to help keep North County residents free from hunger. If you can’t make it to the picnic but would like to donate, you can send a check to NCFB, PO Box 162, Wheeler, OR 97147 or donate on the website.

A Dream
A flag, a bible, a stream of endless
lies, your word means nothing to you.
The art of your moment is deceit.
Every lie a slight of hand, a distraction
inviting hate. Broker of treason and
intimate assault, you have no idea
what you are doing. You lost the dream
of America. We all see there is a better
than this. We carry the decency to keep
a promise, hold the wish to serve, honor
an oath to follow and enforce the law.
Together, we will find a way; Take back
the power and voice of the common good.
Your assumed privilege will be denied,
the energy of hope will rise, the long arc
of justice will slowly open again.
Behind bars, you can heal what is broken
or go down failing in your own mad bunker,
as the light of America returns, a dream
that will endure, out of many, one.

Farming is a rain or shine endeavor. It’s the middle of August: crops are growing, and they need to be harvested on schedule to keep yields high and production steady. Our farmers only have so many weeks to produce, harvest, and sell everything. Careful planning goes into ensuring a full enough market stand with sales sufficient to carry the business through the winter.
It’s a similar story for our non-farm vendors: market vending is seasonal, and each week is important to ensure a business’s success. We will have a smaller group of vendors tomorrow, since some people’s products are vulnerable to damage in the rain, and they’ve opted not to put their stock at risk. But many of our intrepid coastal vendors will be there tomorrow, and I hope you will too!
We’re coasties. Let’s embrace this rainy climate we all love! Put on your rain gear, come down to the market, and join us in gratitude for the beautiful fresh water that falls from the sky to keep our home clean, cool, green, and beautiful! And let’s enjoy the amazing food supported by that rain: the season is in full swing and you can expect to see all the produce, including abundant tomatoes and corn.
See you at the market, Friday 4-6 pm, 635 Manzanita Ave!
TEEN NIGHT at North Coast Pinball is tomorrow, Friday August 15th, 6-8 PM. FREE PINBALL and Games, with Arts/Crafts too, for ALL TEENS! ALL TEENS WELCOME (teens only!!). Please spread the word and send your teens in for FREE FUN!

I’m 70 years old and have been using only cash/debit only for more than 40 years. Through the years I’ve paid off car and house loans and other major big purchases (Home Depot, Lowe’s, and other major companies for home upgrades etc). I was maintaining the highest FICO/credit score for years. As when I did apply for credit, I the paid the intial balances in full on the first payments. Thus, maintaining good/excellent credit scores.
Since, I know longer am making any major purchases using any issued credit cards my FICO score is declining. Though, I’ve kept a few of the credit cards open they haven’t been used for years. As I was told closing them would lower my credit scores. However, my credit scores are currently declining. I’m
sure is due to NOT using credit and only paying cash.
I’m not understanding how using only cash wether you are ‘red’ or ‘blue’ during any blue or red regimes lowers credit scores. As my once excellent score has been declining since I don’t use cash.
Join us for an afternoon of fun and connection as we mark this milestone together.
When: Sunday, April 24th at 3-5pm
Where: In the courtyard at Pauseful Massage & Botanicals—298 Laneda Ave, Manzanita, OR 97130
The amazing Rhythm Method Band will be playing live, and we’re brewing up some surprises.
This day is a thank-you—for your presence, your support, and your part in our journey.
Come as you are, stay as long as you like. We’d love to see you.
With love and gratitude,
