Tillamook Coast Visitors Association (TCVA) hosted Ashley Schahfer, founder of Empowering Access, for an accessibility tour of three Tillamook County parks June 14-15. Empowering Access is an Oregon based consulting company whose mission is to provide equitable experience and knowledge-based guidance to those looking to engage in disability, equity, and inclusion work. Schahfer’s visit was made possible by a $20,000 grant awarded to TCVA through Travel Oregon’s small project grant program.

The tour was attended by Parks Director JoAnn Woelfle, Parks Office Manager Melissa Rondeau, Parks Maintenance Tech Gene Henderson, TCVA Trails & Outdoor Recreation Manager Dan Haag, Tillamook Estuaries Partnership (TEP) Deputy Director Claudine Rehn, TEP Environmental Education Specialist Rachel Freeman, and TEP Communication & Engagement Manager Diana Dimarco.

The two-day tour took in three of the most-visited parks in the county system – Trask River, Kilchis River and Barview Jetty Campgrounds. Schahfer, an outdoors enthusiast with two degrees in architecture and 21 years of lived experience in disability, offered tips and advice on ways to improve access in the parks for users of all abilities. She pointed out a variety of things that could pose challenges to people dealing with mobility issues, such as concrete lips in front of restrooms, large gravel in handicapped parking areas and public spaces, bark chips on trails and playgrounds, and the height placement of door handles, soap dispensers and hand towels in restrooms. County parks staff also consulted with Schahfer on design ideas for creating dedicated ADA campsites in each park and improving beach and river access points. Schahfer will create a report from all of the data collected during the tour for the parks department and TCVA to use in planning future accessibility projects.

In addition to the parks consultation, Schahfer will be collaborating with TCVA to create an accessibility training and discussion forum for city and county leaders and personnel to be held locally in late fall of 2023.

“Ashley was incredible to work with and we were thrilled to bring her to Tillamook County,” Haag said. “The information she provided will be invaluable as we look ahead to creating recreational opportunities that are welcoming to all abilities.”

Millions of dollars, a hefty demand,
But the people’s voice they cannot withstand.
Previous votes turned down their request,
Now they scramble, seeking excuses, lest…

They claim a dangerous precedent would be set,
As if letting people choose could cause a threat.
Democracy, it seems, must be contained,
Lest citizens decide, unconstrained.

“Oh, the inconvenience!” one member cries,
Voting’s a hassle, in their comedic guise.
Why bother with democracy, the people’s choice?
When the council can speak with an 80% voice.

Blaming the past, they point and accuse,
As if absolving themselves, they seek to confuse.
The previous council, the scapegoats they’ve found,
Yet the responsibility lies on the current ground.

The old city hall stands forlorn,
Sold and repurposed, a relic of the storm.
Consultants justify expenses, spending in vain,
While the people’s needs and voices remain.

But Manzanita, let us not be dismayed,
For poetry can shed light on this charade.
Let democracy flourish, its essence revive,
As citizens’ voices echo and thrive.

Oh council, be bold, embrace the people’s might,
Allow them to vote, in the clear, shining light.
For their voices hold power, their hearts are true,
Manzanita’s destiny rests in their view.

So let the loan face the people’s decree,
In the hands of democracy, let it be free.
For in their hands lies the future’s call,
Manzanita’s heart, beating strong for all.

Will Stone
