Riverbend Players kicks off our 2025 Season one week from tonight with our first-ever production of an Agatha Christie murder mystery!

THE MOUSETRAP opens February 28th for nine shows and runs through March 16th at the NCRD Performing Arts Center.

Meet the Cast: Janet Stinson

Janet is a retired elementary school reading specialist who tutors dyslexic students, is co-chair of Language Skills Therapy, is a member of the Education Committee of the Lower Nehalem Community Trust, and volunteers at Nehalem Elementary and Manzanita Library.

She is also secretary of the Riverbend Players board of directors and has been the stage manager for several previous productions.

For fun, Janet hooks rugs and loves long beach walks with her husband, Bill.

THE MOUSETRAP by Agatha Christie:

A classic murder mystery occurs in Monkswell Manor, a guesthouse where a snowstorm traps a group of strangers.

As news arrives of a murder nearby, the guests realize that the killer might be among them.

Detective Sergeant Trotter arrives to investigate, but as tensions rise and secrets are uncovered, another murder occurs.

The play is famous for its surprise twist ending, and audiences are traditionally asked to keep the plot’s resolution a secret.

The Mousetrap holds the world record as the longest-running play, debuting in 1952 and remaining continuously on stage.

Get your 2025 SEASON PASS now and save 20%. It’s only available until March 16th.

Tickets and the 2025 SEASON PASS are available at www.RiverbendPlayers.org

EV charging at your home or vacation rental!

We’re Ranger EV, a Portland-based startup with roots on the Oregon Coast. We are working with Sunset to Sunset in Manzanita to bring something exciting to the area: Ranger Stations™!

What’s a Ranger Station™?

More than just an EV charger, a Ranger Station™ turns your home or vacation rental into a haven for electric vehicle travelers while reducing carbon emissions. Whether for your personal driveway or rental guests, it lets people charge while they sleep—no more detours to fast chargers in Tillamook or Warrenton.

By hosting a Ranger Station™, you’re helping to:

– Ease EV travelers’ “charging anxiety”
– Welcome more visitors to your home or rental
– Offset energy costs with simple shared payments
– Build a community supporting sustainable EV travel

We’re already working locally and would love for you to join us! If you’re a homeowner or vacation rental owner, let’s chat.

Good fences…

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: Karmatenfol@aol.com – Click to email about this post
Something there is that doesn’t love a wall,
That sends the frozen-ground-swell under it,
And spills the upper boulders in the sun;
And makes gaps even two can pass abreast.
The work of hunters is another thing:
I have come after them and made repair
Where they have left not one stone on a stone,
But they would have the rabbit out of hiding,
To please the yelping dogs. The gaps I mean,
No one has seen them made or heard them made,
But at spring mending-time we find them there.
I let my neighbor know beyond the hill;
And on a day we meet to walk the line
And set the wall between us once again.
We keep the wall between us as we go.
To each the boulders that have fallen to each.
And some are loaves and some so nearly balls
We have to use a spell to make them balance:
‘Stay where you are until our backs are turned!’
We wear our fingers rough with handling them.
Oh, just another kind of out-door game,
One on a side. It comes to little more:
There where it is we do not need the wall:
He is all pine and I am apple orchard.
My apple trees will never get across
And eat the cones under his pines, I tell him.
He only says, ‘Good fences make good neighbors.’
Spring is the mischief in me, and I wonder
If I could put a notion in his head:
‘Why do they make good neighbors? Isn’t it
Where there are cows? But here there are no cows.
Before I built a wall I’d ask to know
What I was walling in or walling out,
And to whom I was like to give offense.
Something there is that doesn’t love a wall,
That wants it down.’ I could say ‘Elves’ to him,
But it’s not elves exactly, and I’d rather
He said it for himself. I see him there
Bringing a stone grasped firmly by the top
In each hand, like an old-stone savage armed.
He moves in darkness as it seems to me,
Not of woods only and the shade of trees.
He will not go behind his father’s saying,
And he likes having thought of it so well
He says again, ‘Good fences make good neighbors.’

Since there were so many records waiting to be posted, I didn’t want to overload you in the summary tonight and did not post everything. So if your post isn’t there, it will be tomorrow.
