I just want to say how GRATEFUL I am for the service NorthCoast BBQ provides and for this kind, close-knit community where people help people. Someone on the beach saw a bit of bright color peeking out of the sand and someone else told her about my post. So wonderful!

So Beverly (left in pic) will get her collar back soon and, speaking of collars, here’s a holler (see how I did that?) to anyone who might want editing or syntax-based WRITING CLASSES.

Anywho, I’m gonna try this link one more time to see if it takes:

Thanks!!

SORDID LIVES AUDITIONS MARCH 3rd and March 4th
CAST OF CHARACTERS: 7 W / 6 M

Riverbend Players seeks a triple-threat actress for the role of Bitsy Mae Harling in SORDID LIVES. Bitsy Mae is a sassy, charming, down-on-her-luck country singer with a heart of gold.

Think Dolly Parton meets a touch of Reba. Must sing country/blues, play guitar proficiently, and possess some acting skills.

Email the director, Frank Squillo, at fsquillo@riverbendplayers.org

Open auditions for all other parts will be held at the NCRD Performing Arts Center.

Audition details are available at www.riverbendplayers.org

SORDID LIVES is a dark comedy set in a small Texas town, revolving around the eccentric Turpin family and their friends as they grapple with the sudden and embarrassing death of the family matriarch.

Her demise occurs during an illicit tryst in a seedy motel room with her much younger, married neighbor, resulting in a hilariously scandalous cover-up.

As the family prepares for her funeral, long-buried secrets and family tensions erupt, leading to a series of outrageous events.

The play satirizes small-town life, family dysfunction, and societal prejudices with a sharp wit and a deep affection for its flawed but lovable characters.

SORDID LIVES celebrates individuality and acceptance, even in the face of the most “sordid” circumstances.

It’s a raucous and heartwarming story about finding your place in a world that often tries to define you.

For those of you who see Myriah Mathews at J.Marie Salon and Spa in Nehalem I wanted to give you my website with the new booking page. I had to close down my old one and open a business account.

Go to my website to book alour-artist.com
503-583-5061 if that doesn’t work or you want to get a hold of me. Texting is easier when booking an appointment.

When you see Alour that is my business name. Considering I work in multiple locations I wanted to have something that worked for both places including my artwork side of my business.
For those who don’t know I do intuitive collage drawings that tell a story. I also enjoy taking photographs and putting inspirational quotes with my artwork.

My salon days are still the same. I am in Nehalem working at the salon Tuesdays and Wednesdays. In McMinnville 1-2 weekends a month. Please be mindful the day you book your appointment.

Protect our Wetlands!

Hi there! I’m working to bring together a group of community members dedicated to protecting our wetlands from any future development. While we hope for a positive outcome from the Oregon Shores Conservation Coalition’s appeal of the Nedonna Wave PUD to LUBA, it’s important that we prepare for any scenario.
Wetlands are highly productive and biologically diverse systems that enhance water quality, control erosion, maintain stream flows, sequester carbon, and provide a home to many species of fish and wildlife. Protecting these special areas is essential!
There are many ideas on how we can organize as a community, including: staying informed and keeping up-to-date on developments, having ongoing conversations with neighbors and family members, building and maintaining a contact and mailing list, attending relevant city council meetings, working to get media coverage and attention on this issue, creating engaging graphics, videos, and other visuals to spread the word, producing flyers and yard signs to increase awareness, monitoring the site and any potential developer actions, looking into legal representation to ensure we have the support we need.
If you have any suggestions, and/or are interested in joining this group, please email me at lyndsey.nccwp@gmail.com.

Thank you!

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

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

THE MOUSETRAP by Agatha Christie
Directed by Randy Schultz:

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. It’s only available until March 16th.

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

Losing our wetlands means losing their extraordinary benefits:
-They protect us from flooding. They act as natural sponges, holding water during floods and slowly releasing it during droughts. Coastal wetlands – like mangroves – reduce wave energy and storm surges, helping to protect settlements near the sea.
-They are nurseries – as well as breeding and feeding habitats – for fish and other wildlife
-They are the kidneys of our landscapes, helping to filter out sediment and other pollutants before water carries on downstream.
-They are sources of food. More than 50 percent of the world relies on food sourced from wetlands. .
-They are of cultural, recreational, educational, and spiritual value to people around the world.
-They absorb and store carbon in their soil, helping to slow and reduce the impacts of climate change.
-They replenish underground aquifers. Only 2.5 percent of the world’s water is freshwater. A world without wetlands is a world without clean and healthy freshwater.

For these reasons, no more houses should be built in the Nedonna Wetlands! Join us in supporting Oregon Shores Appeal to LUBA against the Nedonna Wave Planned Unit Development. Picture is of where one of the lots will be built!
