Plastic Recycling Project Paused

Friends of NCRD pauses plastic recycling project

Friends of NCRD (North County Recreation District) regrets that we must stop our plastic recycling project until we can recruit more volunteers to bag, weigh, and deliver the plastic to Fred Meyer’s in Tillamook.
Meanwhile, you may not be aware that all Fred Meyer’s and Safeway stores have collection bins for soft film plastic so you will be able to take your small bag of bags there when you shop.
Friends of NCRD started this project in cooperation with the Trex Company several years ago. For each 500 pounds of soft film plastic collected and delivered for recycling, the company provided us, as a non-profit organization, an outdoor bench. To date, we have received and installed 4 benches a at NCRD and we have also earned a fifth bench not yet ordered. Thanks to all who have participated!
If you are interested in helping maintain the plastic recycling project, please contact Gail Young, Friends of NCRD board Secretary. gailmyoung@mac.com

Unique rental opportunity /Arch Cape, Or.

Submitted By: Artwithmisskaren@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Unique long term rental opportunity Arch Cape.

For the past year ++ I have been renting a wonderful light filled, furnished, Arch Cape Cottage with a view of the sea.
It’s a true slice of heaven & safe haven. From a large picture window you can see the Milky Way by night & great pacific by day. 5 minute walk to the sand. Easy access to Cannon beach & Manzanita.

I’m building a small new home that is 3-4 months out before I can possibly occupy it. But my finances are tight so I’m looking to share this little cottage these last few months……. then you can have it all to yourself.
Currently offering for rent a generous furnished bedroom with private bath, shared laundry & common living space for 750$ a month.
The cottage is located on the owners property but detached offering plenty of privacy. The owners are active, kind, straight shooting, salt of the earth kinda people who often share their gardens bounty from summer bumper crops.
While I’ll do the initial phone interviews & showings. You will also need to meet the owners because it’s ultimately up to them who will be taking full occupancy of the cottage when I leave in a few short months.

A Great rental place for daily living or regular weekend get aways.

Blessings – Karen

It’s the 14th Annual North County Pie Day! This annual and fun event takes place on Saturday January 27 at the White Clover Grange in Nehalem (36585 Highway 53) and is a fundraiser for the Grange building fund.
Fifteen dollars ($5 for children 10 and under) opens the door to a fast paced pie auction with the funny and entertaining Susan Tone returning for her 6th year as auctioneer. The auction features two dozen creative, delicious, and impressive pies from local bakers, chefs, and restaurants.

Join your community on Saturday, January 27st! Doors open at 2:30 pm and the auction starts at 3.
