Thank you to everyone who joined us last week in Nehalem—your energy and commitment make a real difference, and new faces are always welcome!
The North County Resistance Group will meet again this Saturday in the Nehalem City Parking Lot from noon to 2:00 PM. Join us to make your voice heard, connect with fellow community members, and help shape our community’s future. Bring your signs, a chair, and a positive attitude; stay as long as you like. After a few days of much-needed rain, we’re hopeful for sunny weather next Saturday.
Together, we are working to restore law and order to our National Government by advocating for transparent policies and supporting local initiatives that protect democratic values. By gathering, we not only defend our own freedom of speech but also stand up for the rights of those around us.
Our commitment to our local food bank remains strong. Please put that food in your car right now so you don’t forget it. Non-perishable foods, check, and cash are always welcome, and they go right to our North County Food Bank. Congratulations to those who made it possible for the food bank to take up space next door to their current location while their building is being built. And a big thank you to all the donors in our community who keep the food bank going.
We will have more information about the “No Kings” protest coming up in October. Again, we need 8-10 people to help us set up and with the safety and security issues.
Best,
Patty

When was the last time you were at the ICE facility in Portland?
Sunday, October 5, 2025, 3:00-5:00
St. Catherine’s Community Labyrinth
36335 Hwy. 101, Nehalem, OR 97131
Portland does not need them now.
As such, Drumf is making Kotek look really, really good.
And that sucks.
In my view, she is handling this moment, which is actually just a CIA/Drumf marketing ploy (Epstein who?? GAZA City what??) very maturely and professionally, characteristics I feel compelled to point out, as American politics is awash with Drumfs and AOCs.
Not being a fan of Kotek, I’m wondering why Drumf’s team (CIA) has chosen to make her look good. VP for Gruesome Newsome maybe?
If Fox News commentator Pete, now Secretary of TREASONOUS WAR (look up the legal definition of treason), is planning to fight a WAR IN PORTLAND, he better bring a lot of Soros-funded agitators and treasonous J6 alum FBI traitors to have his ‘war’ with, cuz ain’t nothing happening at the Macadam Ave, small, detention facility.
Kotek, PPB and local ICE absolutely got the facility protests under control over the summer. There may be more arrests, but absence Soros/fed agitators, local ICE and PPB have it totally handled.
I drove the though the 50-foot WAR ZONE in my taxi. THERE WERE PROTESTORS!!!!!! THERE WAS ICE!!!!!!! THERE WAS PPB!!!!!! and it was all cool.
There was a military helicopter circling the small facility at about 1,500 feet, and that was not necessary at all, but it was provocative. Thanks Drumf and your new FOX NEWS commentator secretary of WAR, you are helping Oregon oh so much!!!!
EPSTEIN WHO???????
GAZA CITY WHAT????????
Pretty sure no arrests last night?
Glad I wasn’t in Gaza tho…
So if something flares up, look to Soros and the CIA.
That’s my take.

Reading from Close to Home: The Wonders of Nature Just Outside Your Door
Join us for a reading with conservation biologist and author, Thor Hanson, as he shares excerpts from his newest nonfiction book.
With the “the perfect mix of science and story” (Sy Montgomery), Thor opens the door to the nature that thrives in our yards, gardens, and parks as he inspires and shows how to retrain our eyes to reveal natural worlds of wonder.
Oregon Governor Tina Kotek responded, “There is no national security threat in Portland. Our communities are safe and calm. I ask Oregonians to stay calm and enjoy a beautiful fall day.”
We let the facts speak for themselves …
Multiple law enforcement personnel have been injured during the recent Portland ICE riots.
• Nearby residents have been assaulted
• 3 independent journalists have been assaulted.
• The nearby school has closed due to the riots.
• Police are unable to enforce open law breaking that is going on nightly.
• Residents nearby cannot open their windows because of both the tear gas used as riot control and also the large volume of smoke bombs used by protesters.
• Local shops are losing business as the riots damage windows and chase away customers.
• Anti-ICE Protesters shut down Portland Mayor’s recent public speech and forced him to leave the area. Free speech is being attacked in public.
• Law enforcement officials have had their names, addresses and family photos of family members posted online.
• Rioters zip-tied the ICE office doors and then tried to set fires upon the building.
Paid $4000 in 2018.
Asking $2800

Meet at 11:30AM at the South Neahkahnie Trailhead* for a walk down LNCT’s Headwater’s trail to our stewardship benches. Paper bag your lunch and enjoy a midday break outside with friends. The walk is ~2.5 miles round trip, with a gentle incline.
Note—the Headwaters trail is uneven and mildly steep in some areas. To access the Headwaters Trail, we will meet at the Neahkahnie Mountain South Trailhead parking lot and walk down from there. Plan to wear shoes with a decent tread and dress for the weather.
*To reach the South Neahkahnie Trailhead, drive north on highway 101 from Manzanita about 2 miles. Between mileposts 41 and 41, turn right on road 38555. Keep to the right up the dirt road until you reach a small parking lot and signage, about 1/2 mile.
This in-person event is the perfect way to unwind after a long day and enjoy the natural beauty of the Oregon coast. We are excited to have Marine Biologist and Photographer Jim Young as our volunteer guide. Jim will lead the walk and provide information about interesting beach finds, bay ecology, and more along the way. Additionally, if you plan to bring your camera, hoping to capture a beautiful sunset, Jim will be happy to share some basic tips to help you take that memorable shot.
What to bring:
Comfortable walking shoes
Reusable water bottle
Snacks, if desired
Binoculars are highly encouraged. We will have a few pairs available to borrow and share.
The climate can change quickly along the coast, ranging from warm to cool and breezy, so please bring the gear you need to stay comfortable.

Works great, I just needed something bigger.
Great for a garage, for overflow for all those blackberries you picked this summer or for your homemade dog food.
You haul. Neahkahnie area. Email me.
Take a blank mannequin torso, a table full of reclaimed materials, and your imagination; and turn it into a one-of-a-kind narrative sculpture. This workshop invites you to decorate, collage, and transform a salvaged mannequin, layering memory, meaning, and personal reflection. Our goal will be to use discards to spark stories about who we are, where we’ve been, and what worlds we can imagine.
Over four hours, you’ll be guided through a simple but powerful structure:
Framing the Why – We’ll begin with prompts and reflection on the role of discarded materials. What stories emerge when we build from what’s been set aside? If this mannequin could speak, what would it say about the world it comes from? Could these fragments become a personal story, a cultural memory, or a fantasy of what might be? Is this figure armor, adornment, dream, or warning?
The Build – You’ll collage, layer, and transform your mannequin with discarded fabric, sheet music, corks, buttons, wire, broken jewelry, and other salvaged materials. Facilitators will circulate with questions to help you explore: Are you rebuilding a self from rubble? Mapping a body out of memory? Giving form to a future being?
The Circle – We’ll close by sharing the figures and their stories: what they carry, what they reveal, and what surprised you along the way.
Expect costumes, shields, altars, or ghosts, or something that doesn’t yet have a name.
All materials provided.
No experience necessary—curiosity is the only skill you need.
Participants will have the option to feature and sell their finished work in a community pop-up exhibit at HeartWorks Studio following the workshop (dates TBD).
Torsos are limited!
Tickets available at www.heartofcartm.org/workshops
