EVENT DETAILS
Join us for a spectacular spring fundraising gala at the North County Recreation District (NCRD) as we endeavor to bridge the final stretch of a $2.6 million funding gap for the construction of the new Aquatics Center.

This event promises an evening filled with delectable dinner, refreshing drinks, live music, and a sense of community contributing to a shared goal, culminating in an exciting auction to raise funds for the new Aquatics Center.

RSVP to secure your spot at this meaningful event. Thank you for being a part of this initiative and helping us build a brighter, safer future.

Our Cause

Swimming is a life skill that opens doors to physical fitness, water safety, and recreational enjoyment. The new Aquatics Center will provide a valuable resource for learn-to-swim lessons, first responder training, water sports, warm water therapy, and community gatherings, fostering a healthier and more connected community.

How Funds Will Be Used

Funds raised will be used to complete construction of the new 6-lane pool, a modern therapy pool featuring safe zero-entry floors, an eco-friendly building with glu-lam mass timber beams as well as water and energy-saving systems, an ecologically beneficial site featuring native plants for the Oregon Coast, new public spaces, and an expanded team of skilled aquatics professionals.

Please join us for an informational presentation and organizational meeting about Ranked Choice Voting this Saturday at 2pm at the NCRD in Nehalem. The meeting will be in the Fireside Room. The interactive presentation will be adaptive to the specific questions and concerns of those in attendance. After discussing the pros and cons of RCV, those who are interested will transition to exploring options for local action within Clatsop and Tillamook Counties. Organizing in support of the Oregon Ranked-Choice Voting for Federal and State Elections Measure which will be on the ballot this November? Attempting to qualify a similar ballot measure for our local county elections? There are many ways we can take local action regarding this important issue.

REGISTER NOW to reserve your spot at a repair table: www.heartofcartm.org/repaircafe

There are only about 100 “repair cafés” in the US and ours is among them! Lots of rural areas have fixit folks, but we are pretty lucky out here on the coast to have a Repair Cafe! Our talented repair volunteers are willing to share their knowledge and skills to reduce waste and save you money!

Here are some examples of the fun registrations we see AND FIX!
Reclining Chair – Spring has sprung.
Heater – Light turns on but nothing happens.
Boom Box – Belt to play cassette tapes needs to be installed but I can’t figure out where it goes. I took the old one out without taking pictures.
Toaster – Only one side toasts.
Vacuum – Suction is mostly gone.

Recognize any of these frustrations? REGISTER NOW to reserve your spot at a repair table: www.heartofcartm.org/repaircafe

Native Plant Sale this weekend!

Come peruse our remaining inventory at the nursery in Tillamook on Saturday, April 13th. We have evergreen huckle berry, cascara, red-osier dogwood, sitka spruce and more remaining!

The plants at our facility are cultivated from seeds hand-harvested locally along Oregon’s North Coast. This makes them uniquely adapted to thrive in our coastal ecosystems. Native plants play a critical role in restoring habitats to create cleaner water and better habitat for fish, birds, pollinators, and people. Check out our new website page for details.

For the last decade, nursery staff and volunteers have used a temporary porta-john as their only bathroom. Funds from this sale will get us closer to building a hygienic, sustainable, universally accessible bathroom that is more accommodating of the many body types, ability levels, and genders that are welcome at the nursey.

As a “Surplus Plant Sale” all inventory is limited and typically sells at a rapid pace!

TERRY ROBB has earned international acclaim from music critics, peers and fans. His signature fingerpicking style landed him in the Oregon Music Hall of Fame and the Cascade Blues Association Hall of Fame.
Incorporating elements from the Mississippi Delta, ragtime, country, swing and jazz, Robb ranks right up there with the heavy hitters, a player of dazzling skill and technique. He’s been described as “one of the best players, on acoustic and electric, embracing a range of blues styles and then some.”
Drummer Gary Hobbs has played professionally for over 4 decades and appears on over 60 recordings. Gary played with The Stan Kenton Orchestra from 1975 through 1977 and has performed with Randy Brecker, Bud Shank, Anita O’Day, Terry Gibbs, The Woody Herman Orchestra and many others. He’s played Carnegie Hall, Royal Festival Hall, Wolf Trap and the Kennedy Center, as well as festivals and clubs all over the world. Gary is very active in Jazz Education, teaching at the University of Oregon and doing clinics, concerts and jazz camps.
Bassist Dave Captein is an accomplished performer on both string bass and bass guitar, having worked as a professional musician for over 35 years. A Portland native, he is a music graduate of Western Washington University and the University of Washington. Dave has performed in a broad range of situations, from symphonic performances to studio and club work, as well as many jazz concerts and festivals around the country and in Europe. He is a favorite choice for the region’s many bandleaders and always in demand for his solid sound, time and feel, as well as his soloing abilities.
Gary Hobbs and Dave Captein will join Terry Robb for an evening of Electric Music – From Country and Blues to John Coltrane and Jimmy Hendrix! It’s a different side of Terry Robb!

The Green Reaper to Appear in Nehalem!
Everything you want to know about green burial

Elizabeth Fournier, aka The Green Reaper, will speak at the North Coast Recreation District (NCRD), 36155 9th Street, Nehalem. The presentation will be held in the Gallery Saturday, April 27 from 2:00-4:00; $10 cash at the door.

Every year conventional funerals bury millions of tons of wood, concrete, and metals, as well as millions of gallons of carcinogenic embalming fluid. There is a more environmentally conscious and affordable way, and Elizabeth Fournier, affectionately dubbed the “Green Reaper,” walks you through it. She provides comprehensive and compassionate guidance, covering everything from green burial planning and home funeral basics to legal guidelines and outside-the-box options, such as burials at sea. Fournier points the way to green burial practices that consider both the environmental well-being of the planet and the economic well-being of loved ones.

Elizabeth is the author of The Green Burial Guidebook: Everything You Need to Plan
an Affordable, Environmentally Friendly Burial. She is a member of the Advisory Board for the Green Burial Council, and the owner and operator of Cornerstone Funeral Services in Boring, Oregon.

Elizabeth will have copies of her books available for purchase.

For more information on Elizabeth, visit her website: thegreenreaper.org

This event is presented by Conscious Aging and Community Connections, Manzanita.
The contact person is Sue McGrath suemcgrath069@gmail.com

A PDF of our flier for the event is attached.

Thank you.
