Corrections to Thomas Posting

To Wheeler residents,
I had sincerely hoped that I would not have to write this. I do not believe these accusatory posts do anyone any good – the community or the individuals. However, I feel I must respond to Mrs. Thomas’ post on 10/13/2022. In it she classifies me as an advocate of Mr. Ulbricht and “squarely in the developer’s corner”. That is NOT the case. I AM an advocate for increasing Wheeler’s financial position, something the current council has not addressed. I am running for this office because, primarily, I am interested in getting our city into a positive financial position and I am looking at EVERY proposal as a way to do that. I do not need to check with the mayor to know that – yes – things ARE that bad. Other than Mary Leverette, I have not heard any of the other candidates address this issue. My sincere thanks to North Coast BBQ for allowing us this forum. But please, let’s stop the negative posts and focus on what can be done for our city.
Oh, and by the way, my name is not spelled Bell with an “e”. It is “Bell” and it will be spelled that way on the ballot when you receive it next week. Thank you.

Hoffman Center for the Arts presents Printmaking Workshop

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: toni@rbogen.com – Click to email about this post
Printmaking Workshop with Ben Rosenberg
October 27-29 | 10:00am-4:00pm
Tuition $240 | Materials fee $25
Hoffman Center | 594 Laneda Avenue | Manzanita
This class requires proof of vaccination

Monotypes, Monoprints, Collagraphs and More! Oh My!

Join Ben Rosenberg as he introduces the principles and practices of creating monoprints and monotypes. Monotype is a distinctive print made by pressing paper against a painted or inked surface. When creating a monotype, it cannot be replicated again. It is a highly individual creation, much like painting, as it allows for spontaneity, “happy accidents,” and working along a plate surface to bring a wide range of marks that can be obtained through the creation of an image.

Topics include basic theory and use of color and composition in working with water-based, mixed media, and a variety of surfaces. This workshop will involve both conceptual approaches and direct observations using still life, the figure, abstract composition, and a variety of student investigative resources.

You will explore various monotype styles, techniques, and media used with rollers, stencils, textured surfaces, brushes, and various inventive wiping tools to create unusual one-of-a-kind prints.

Through lectures, demonstrations, discussions, and printing time, participants will develop a command of the technical aspects of monotypes and monoprints (color mixing, paint application, materials), and the properties of creating an image (line and shape, color concept, composition, abstraction) and an understanding of how formal choices create meaning.

Each day will begin with a lecture and discussion, followed by an afternoon for studio time. This class is a place where you can engage your own artistic interest and explore your personal voice.

Bring your ideas and be willing to take them further. It is a time and place to soak up everything you can and take risks.

Why Betsy is not for us!

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: Constance@nehalemtel.net – Click to email about this post
My friend sent this to the HH editor, I like that it acknowledges Betsy for her contribution, yet makes a good argument for why you may not want to vote for her. Do you want Oregon to remain BLUE?, vote for Tina. If you want us to become RED, vote for Betsy or Christina. YOUR VOTE matters, please vote for Tina!
Many of us have known and appreciated Betsy Johnson for many years. She has worked hard, provided good constituent service for our Tillamook communities and her middle of the road position is attractive to some — but she WILL NOT WIN. Polls show she has less than 20% of the vote while Tina Kotek (D) and Christine Drazan (R) each have about 30%. Polling numbers are always suspect, but closing a gap of 10% is highly, highly unlikely. So for Democratic- leading voters a vote for Betsy is really a vote taken away from Democrat Tina Kotek. This makes much more likely Republican Christine Drazan will win.

Tina Kotek is committed to the less fortunate having worked for the Oregon Food Bank and Children First for Oregon. She is pro-choice, supports responsible gun ownership and advocates for measures to address climate change. Christine Drazan has the opposite positions and in fact led the Republicans out of the legislature to prevent climate change legislation from passing. Drazan is anti-choice, is endorsed by the NRA and has a 25% rating from the Oregon League of Conservation Voters. Kotek is endorsed by Planned Parenthood, Oregon League of Conservation Voters and the Oregon Nurses Association. She is the leader that reflects Oregon values and needs.

So I urge you to recognize reality and cast your vote for Tina Kotek not Betsy Johnson.

Submitted By: babbles@nehalemtel.net – Click to email about this post
this padded cloth igloo was given to me when my cat was a kitten. she slept in it, she slept on it, and she played with the stuffed cloth ball attached to the entrance.

she lost interest and i was going to give it away. then i found her sleeping on it, so i kept it. and so it went.

then, i kept it for the new kitten that was coming my way. it turns out she has NO interest in it!

any takers out there? it’s for a kitten, not for a cat.

Bill has played with many great bands and musicians over the years and North Coast Music Project is excited to have him perform for us locally.

“One of the signs that you’ve made it to the major leagues, in whatever field, is the reliable excellence of your mates in the arena. Bill Laymon is a case in point, when the notes are flying thick and fast onstage, you can count on him to be there, paying attention and responding with brightness and wit.”

I’M VOTING FOR BRAD

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: johncollier53@yahoo.com – Click to email about this post
Manzanita has been my full-time home for the past 6 years. I have watched and learned about our community for most of those years, and as Covid waned I have started becoming more involved.

That involvement eventually led me to Brad Mayerle. We met in a neighborhood group and have had several creative discussions about our town. Though they often wander our talks mostly revolve around how to enhance those things we love about Manzanita, and avoid those things that could dilute its appeal to us and others.

It has been clear after each encounter that Brad listens. Not only to me, but other neighbors as well. And he always seems to understand what we are saying. Not that he always agrees [with me at least], but he gets it. He genuinely wants to bridge our differences. No denigration of others or their ideas. Just thoughtful reasoned unselfish dialog.

That’s why this November I’m voting for BRAD MAYERLE for City Council.
Thanks for listening .
