She’s a fan favorite amongthe competitors during theOregon Divisional ChainsawSculpting Championship.
Ellen Keeland has been carv-ing at the festival since it start-ed 14 years ago, although shemissed the last two years afterthe death of her husband,Lloyd.
She was impressed with theturnout this year.
“I went through and thought‘Man, look at all the people’”she said. “It’s wonderful.”
Keeland recently movedfrom Loon Lake to theReedsport area.
During the interview,Keeland was interrupted by fanswho wanted to say hello.
This is my daughter,Elizabeth,” one fan said.
“Hi, Elizabeth,” Keelandwarmly greeted.
“It’s very nice to meet you,”Elizabeth said.
She got started carving 14years ago.
“I came here because we hada farm,” Keeland said. “I’ve useda chainsaw. I’ve done artsycraftsy stuff all my life. So, Itold Lloyd ‘I can do that.’ Hesaid ‘Oh, you can’t do that.’”
She said she packed up thecar with a chainsaw and headedto Reedsport, thinking she’d begone for just a few hours.
“It turns out, it’s three-and-a-half days long,” she laughed.“I didn’t know that.”
She said she continues for agood reason.

It appears more than 5,000 peopleattended the 14th Annual OregonDivisional Chainsaw SculptingChampionships in Reedsport.
“The festival was great,” said NancieHammond, Reedsport-Winchester BayChamber of Commerce board president. “Ican't believe how organized and preparedour committee was. Everyone was happyand all of the carvers mentioned that thiswas the best we've ever been. They arereally appreciative of the things we do forthem, and notice everything.”
Hammond said this was a huge year forthe festival.
“We had record breaking attendance,she said. “Over 5,000 came through thegates.”
She said that’s not including the carvers,their families and the large group of volun-
teers who helped at the ticket office, T-shirt sales booth, auction site andpatrolling the grounds.
Hammond said the figure is which is ahuge bump.
She said the figure was 1,000 more thanlast year.
The weekend also included an Art Walkon Friday and Saturday, a Corvette showand other activities in downtownReedsport.
“It was so good to see the sidewalks ofdowntown full on Saturday and so manypeople from out of town just walking allover the downtown area,” Hammond said,“exploring our town and not just going tothe festival. That's our goal as a chamber.”
Hammond also announced the carvingwinners. In the professional division, festi-val founder Bob King won for his “WolfFamily” carving. He was also the People’sChoice and the quick carve winner. JohnSchmalz took second in Pro for his carving
“Pelican.” He was also the carvers’ choiceaward winner. Third place was Mark Colp.
In the semipro division, Donald Bensonwas the big winner with his first win andalso advanced to the “Pro” status becausehe also won the quick carve in that division.
Hammond says they won’t have moneytotals until later in the week.
“We do know it will be a record breakerby a lot,” she said. “Not only the atten-dance, but the carvings in the quick carvebrought higher prices than usual every dayexcept Sunday. For some reason the auctionwas packed but things went for bargainprices on Sunday after bringing in top dol-lar the three nights before. The committeehas come up with some innovative ideas tomake extra money too, like selling pallets offirewood in the auction made out of thescraps of carving wood. And selling planksand blocks of carving wood to the carvers atthe end so there was no waste.”

The Gardiner Sanitary District cameaway from a “one stop” meeting in Salemon June 11 without a funding package.
The district hopes to acquire funding tohelp it to improve and begin using waste-water treatment facilities at the oldInternational Paper site. The district cur-rently uses the Reedsport facilities.
Gardiner and Reedsport are in disagree-ment about how much each owes the otherfor treatment and payments for the currentReedsport treatment plant.
“What these one-stops are reallyabout,” said Becky Bryant, regional coordi-nator for the Business OregonInfrastructure Finance Authority, “is theycome in and take a project. There’s nopromise of financing done at these. Wekind of lay out what the financing wouldlook like and look at different fundingpartners and try to look at what would bethe best deal. Nobody comes away fromthis with a finance package in place.”
Bryant says there are options forGardiner.
“There are options,” she said, “however,before those options can come into play,there is some information the districtneeds to work out.”

Local favorite returnsafter carving hiatus
BY STEVE LINDSLEYThe Umpqua Post
The sponsor of a bill that would allowsome school districts to keep their NativeAmerican mascots bill is not confident itwill make it through the current session.
“At this point, I’m not,” said OregonState Senator Jeff Kruse, R-Roseburg.
He saw Senate Bill 215 easily pass in thesenate, 24-4, on April 10.
That bill is designed to let local schools,with Native American mascots, negotiatewith local tribes to allow the schools tocontinue using the names.
The Oregon State Board of Education,last year, mandated schools with NativeAmerican mascots change them by 2017, orrisk losing state funding.
The bill moved to the House Committeeon Education, where it had a hearing onMay 29, and then was moved, without rec-ommendation, to the House Committee onRules, where it now sits.
“Actually, if that bill, in its originalform, would come to the floor of the house,it would pass,” Kruse said. “Obviously, itpassed the senate 24-4.”
He said he put a lot of work into the bill.“I worked with the tribes and the school
boards to get the language the way bothparties liked it,” Kruse said. “It gets over tothe house and the governor weighs in.Supposedly, what the governor is doing isbacking the decision of the state board ofeducation. The governor is threatening aveto. I think it’s an empty threat.”

Salmon Harbor’s outgoingmanager says the facilityshould look at the way it doesbusiness.
Jeff Vander Kley saysSalmon Harbor doesn’t worklike any other port, sinceDouglas County decreed itshould be self-sufficient andnot depend on tax dollars fromthe county. Vander Kley worksclosely with the county andthe Port of Umpqua.
He read from a 2010report, prepared by consultantcompany ParsonBrinckerhoff, of Portland,entitled “A New StrategicBusiness Plan for Oregon’sStatewide Port System.”
He gave a report to theSalmon Harbor ManagementCommittee.
“They’re talking about theoutlook for marinas,” VanderKley told the committee, andhow marinas fund things.
“And it says ‘historically,ports and other quasi-publicagencies are asked to provideservices that were needed bysociety but were not profitableand therefore could not beprovided by private enter-prise.’”
The committee has beendealing with funding and hasclosed some of the woodendocks in the east boat basinbecause they’re too expensiveto maintain or replace.
Vander Kley continued toread from the report.
“Ports were allowed toestablish a tax base to workfrom to fund these facilitiesand programs as over timecommunities realized there is(or non-existent) private rev-enue available,” he read.“Some of the ports try to takea business-like approach butrecognize that they can’tcharge enough to replace thefacility.
The report recognizes thatsome South Coast ports are“facing some major overhaulof their marinas.”
One of the problems,Vander Kley said, are the rateshis marina can charge.
“In order to make marina
operations profitable,” heread, ports would need tocharge rates that are market-compatible and ensure a highpercentage (such as 75 percentor more) of the slips are rentedon an ongoing basis.”
The report says docks andfloats in marinas have lifespans of 30 to 40 years.
“In Salmon Harbor’s case,”Vander Kley told the commit-tee,“we’ve well exceeded that.”
“The financing of replace-ment is typically handlesthrough the issuance ofbonds,” Vander Kley read fromthe report. “If the mooragerates sufficient to cover opera-tions and maintenance as wellas bond payments, then rev-enue bonds may be issued. Ifthe marina rates are not suffi-cient, then general obligationbonds backed by the port dis-trict, municipality or type ofmarina owner will likely berequired.
“In this case, SalmonHarbor doesn’t have the abili-ty to issue bonds,” he told thecommittee.
The report stated that inmany cases the moorage raterequired to cover constructioncosts for marina docks andfloats can be $10, or more, perfoot.
“That would be, for a 20-foot vessel, $200 a month,”said Vander Kley. “Our facilityjust wouldn’t support that.”
He said it will take somecreative thinking to come upwith a way to replaced theaging docks.
“Salmon Harbor does nothave the bonding capability todo anything like this,” VanderKley said. “We do have theability, with the cooperationof the port and with the coop-eration of the county to jointlyretire debt service, whetherit’s $10,000 or $20,000 a yearthat could possibly be divertedfrom our budget.”
He said the port and coun-ty would have to contribute tothe effort.
Vander Kley said he planspresentations to the port andcounty commissioners.
Salmon Harbor willneed to be creative

Go to tonight’s meetingscreaming about the docks
Everyone in Reedsport andWinchester Bay should be screaming.
The closing of the docks will affectevery business in the area that sellsanything to tourists.
If you think we have too many closedbusinesses and empty buildings now justwait until the docks are closed in theEast Basin. If you are a business owneryou should be screaming. If you hope fora reasonable future for the area youshould be screaming.
The Port of Umpqua has to take amajor part in this if we can get thischanged. It has funding abilities theharbor does not have. I just read all theagendas and all the meeting minutes thePort of Umpqua has posted on theInternet. There are a year and a half ofthem posted. Only one person in all thattime has anyone ever complained aboutthis during the public comments por-tion of the meetings. Not once have weever put it on the Agenda for discussion.
The harbor manager has an idea thatmight allow us to have a continuing boatpresence in Winchester Bay. He is goingto present it at the next port meeting onWednesday, June 19, at 7 p.m.
If you get this paper Wednesday themeeting is tonight.
If you don’t think that this willimpact your business I ask you to comeover here and look for yourself at what
is happening. Some of the docks havebeen gone for awhile. More just closedand are without boats. In a year theywill all be gone.
I am asking everyone to attend thismeeting. This is the most importantthing to affect our area since the clos-ing of I.P. The difference is only that itwill take a couple of years to really feelthe impact.
I have uploaded two videos toYouTube on the subject. They could notbe easier to find. Do a Google search or aYahoo search for this: County abandonsWinchester Bay. The video comes upimmediately. Play it. Watch it in HD andfull screen.
I have just now both e-mailed andwritten to all of our legislators, and ourcommissioners about the problem.
Our three county commissioners areelected at large but have broken up thecounty into three areas. Susan Morganrepresents this area. She respondedwith interest and watched the videos.The others have not, other thanLaurance who just said, “Talk to Susanabout Winchester Bay.” To me that’s anunacceptable answer. Joseph Lauranceand Doug Robertson were elected atlarge by all of us and the closing of thedocks is too important for Laurance andDouglas to just ignore it. These menneed to see the videos and come overhere to a joint meeting to see for them-selves at some point in time. As thisprogresses they will have to seriouslylisten to us. They have the solutions andit takes at least one of them besidesSusan Morgan to make a decision.
It’s not like this is Portland. There areonly 110,000 people in this whole county.Our commissioners could give us sometime, not just pass it all back to SusanMorgan.
Please go to this meeting.Art Dever

Thousands of peopledescended on Reedsportfor the four-day, 14thAnnual Oregon DivisionalSculpting Championships.
Carvers from all overthe world spent hoursworking on their mainsculptures and they alsoparticipated in daily“quick-carve” events.The results of those quickcarves were auctionedeach day, with somepieces garnering morethan $1,000.
The carvers would taketime out of their carvingsto talk with the publicwho came to watch.
They deserve a lot ofcredit.
But, the volunteers whoserved the festival alsodeserve a big hand. Someof those people are atevery big event ... and evenmany not-so-big events.Of course, there were theco-chairmen, Bill Karcherand Bob del Re, but there
were also volunteers whogathered up the carvingseach day for the auction,volunteers who worked asalcohol monitors, volun-teers who staffed the maingate and volunteers whoserved as spotters duringthe daily auctions.
Reedsport’s RyanAnderson carved this year
and helped organize partsof the event.
I can’t image the workthat goes into such anevent. It includes gettingthe spruce and cedar need-ed for the carvings. All thatis in place when the festivalstarts on Thursday.
I’m sure they mighthave a different opinionon this, but I think thefestival came off well andother people wereimpressed that Reedsportputs on this giant festival.
Of course, Reedsport isthe Chainsaw CarvingCapital of Oregon.
Nice work.

As a word, it doesn’tmean much. As an organi-zation, the Oregon SmallWoodlands Associationbrings a great bounty ofinformation and technicalassistance to their mem-bership. In Oregon, if youhave less than 500acres of tree-growing land,OSWA is the pro-fessional associa-tion for you. Smallwoodland ownersare a very diversegroup. Some man-age their land fortimber produc-tion, others forrecreational orspiritual values,still others for acombination of goals. Allof them recognize thevalue of clean water,healthy habitat, strongtrees and stewardship forthe long haul.
Through 16 local chap-ters, covering 20 ofOregon’s 36 counties,OSWA tracks technical,political, regulatory, sci-entific and marketingaspects of timber land andbusiness management forits membership.
Douglas County has avery active OSWA chapter(DSWA). DSWA membersare woven tightly into thefabric of our county. Aswith our general popula-tion, many of them are inretirement and came to treefarming from a work back-ground that didn’t involveforestry. In addition, manymembers are involved withforest products in their dayjobs, and manage their ownprivate trees as well. Othermembers mix livestockraising with tree raising, acommon combination inDouglas County. Using theknowledge gained from sci-entific and technical devel-opments, as well as beingproactively involved to suc-cessfully navigate regulato-ry and political processeskeep our local chapter busyon the land and on the free-way to Salem.
Douglas SmallWoodlands Associationrecently hosted the stateassociation’s 54th annualmeeting at the CountyFairgrounds in Roseburg.This three day event tookmembers out to see first-
hand local loggingand forest productsproduction. Thenext day saw a fullslate of speakers,like the OregonState Forester, AllynFord, and DougRobertson, eachtalking about themany diverseaspects of beingpermitted to, andbeing able to pro-vide our nation with
forest products. As youknow, small woodland own-ers are under the jurisdictionof the Oregon ForestPractices Act, just as indus-trial timber lands (more than500 acres) are.
The final day sawOSWA journey to ParadiseCreek Ranch near Elktonto enjoy the productivity,beauty and sustainabilityof that award winningsmall woodland.
If you are interesting intree farming, increasingthe productivity of yourtree growing land, or gain-ing knowledge to manageyour land to attain yourgoals, OSWA may be foryou.

Did you hear that collectivesigh of relief emanating fromthe general area of LongwoodDrive last Wednesday? Thatwas the sound of more than600 students and staff mem-bers at Highland Elementaryand Reedsport CommunityCharter Schools welcomingthe beginning of summervacation.
In my childhood memo-ry, summer vacation was atime of endless sunshine(even here on the Oregoncoast), long evenings playingoutdoors with bands ofneighborhood kids, makingforts in the Scotch broomand thimbleberry bushes,spying on younger siblings,riding bikes, reading stacksof library books, and swim-ming at the pool. Thankfullyour kids today can stillengage in many of the sameactivities, but there are sev-eral amazing opportunitiesavailable to our studentsthat definitely weren’t partof my childhood.
Thanks to a grant fromOregon GEAR UP and theFord Family Foundation, anumber of Reedsport stu-dents will be sponsored toparticipate in summer camps
around the state this sum-mer. Under the intrepid lead-ership of Lisa Smart, ourlocal GEAR UP Coordinator,students will have the oppor-tunity to attendthree different all-expenses-paidcamps.
The first startsnext week, June 26and 27, right here inReedsport on thecampus of RCCS.Thirty middle schoolstudents will attendthis two-dayEngineering Campled by student andfaculty representa-tives of the OregonState University EngineeringDepartment. The OSU collegestudents will teach our kids tobuild and race solar cars;design, build, and test windturbines; learn about college;and assemble a solar cell andmeasure its electrical output.Be on the lookout for theyoung mad scientists and theirengineering creations nextWednesday and Thursday!
Lisa will be taking anothergroup of RCCS students to agirls-only, all-expenses-paidOregon Outdoor Adventure
“From the Mountains to theSea” Camp sponsored byGEAR UP and SouthernOregon University in Ashland.From July 28 through Aug. 1,
the 8th- and 9th-grade girls will takelaboratory classesand stay in thedorms at SOU beforelaunching out toCrater Lake NationalPark, camping in theCascade Mountainsat Lake of theWoods, and explor-ing Klamath Lake,Deer Creek, theOregon Caves, andthe coast. Along theway they will camp
in yurts, learn to canoe, dosome bird watching and birdbanding, explore streams andwatersheds, and, of course,watch the stars around nightlycampfires. Tuition for the pro-gram is $650 per student, butall expenses are covered byReedsport’s UP grant, and theexperience for the girls whoparticipate is sure to be price-less.
Finally, a group of 10RCCS students will travelwith Lisa to participate inthe annual Oregon UP
Student Leadership Event atWestern Oregon Universityin Monmouth Aug. 13 - 15.While many of their friendswill still be savoring the lastdays of summer vacation,these students will turntheir attention toward aca-demics – developing thekind of leadership, learning,and communication skillsthat will enhance their aca-demic success and helpthem be leaders and peermentors when they return toschool in the fall. In addi-tion, the kids will be able toexplore the WOU campusand learn what it’s like atcollege – including eating inthe dining halls, sleeping inthe dorms, and learningabout the college experiencethrough a campus tour, ascavenger hunt, and a panelpresentation by currentWOU students.
I can’t wait to hear whatour kids have to say abouttheir experiences this sum-mer. I hope their memoriesare filled with that sameOregon coast sunshine Iremember, along with theexcitement and stimulationof new ideas and friendshipsand dreams for their future.

At Winchester Bay, theocean salmon fishing is nowcompeting with the UmpquaRiver’s redtailed surfperchrun for major billing. Whilethe surfperch run is now in itsfifth week and lots of perchare being caught includingsome boat limits every day,the fishing has been hard tofigure and lots of anglers aredisappointed with theircatches. As for the ocean chi-nook salmon fishery, it seemsthat anytime anglers can getout for a few days they findgood salmon fishing.
The best news for the riverperch anglers is that it cannotget any more erratic andjudging by the size and devel-opment of the baby perch,which are born live, it appearsthat there are going to bespawning “pinkfin” perch forat least several more weeks —and at least for this season, itappears that the perch are notall being caught in the earlymorning.
The ocean salmon fisheryseems to consist of mostly10- to 13-pound Chinookwith a rare larger fish. Somelarger salmon occasionallyenter the catch, but most ofthem seem to be extremelylate run spring Chinook and afew have been caught in thelowermost Umpqua and inthe last few weeks, aboveScottsburg, as well.Somewhat holding back theocean sport Chinook catch isthat the fish are farther outthan most sport anglers wantto fish — but those that arefishing in more than 300 feetof water are catching salmon40 to 100 feet beneath thesurface.
Scott Howard, of StrikeZone Charters, landed a boatlimit for three anglers lastSaturday with salmon tonearly 20 pounds. A few sportboats also had boat limits,and fishing success in theocean out of Winchester Bayhas been good — but not foreveryone.
The South Jetty/Trianglearea fished a little slower thanit usually does. Usually thisbottom fishery is the area’smost consistent fishing. Butsome anglers seem immuneto the fishing being a little off— such as Curt Burdett, of
Creswell, who caught severalfair-sized greenling and a nicecabezon (illegal to keep untilJuly 1) off the south side of theTriangle last Sunday.
Since29 percentof thespring all-depth hal-ibut quotaremainsuncaught,there willbe anadditionalall-depthhalibutopen June20-22.Unlikemost
years, the halibut fishingactually was more productivelater in the season than it wasat the start. The catch rate onthe latest opener was .8 hal-
ibut per angler fishing out ofsport boats and .9 halibut perangler fishing out of halibutcharter boats. In the unlikelyevent that a significantamount of the quota remainsuncaught after June 22, anadditional opener would takeplace on July 4-6. If anyonewould like additional halibutinformation, including howthey figure the estimatedpoundage caught by anglersthey should visit:www.dfw.state.or.us/MRP/finfish/halibut/index.asp. Thenext near shore halibut fish-ery will be June 13-15.
While Lake Marie fishedwell for trout the weekendbefore last, the fishing sloweddown last weekend and mostof the trout planted prior to“Free Fishing Weekend” havebeen caught and the troutfishing has slowed down.
The area’s best trout fish-
ing continues to be TenmileLakes which has carryover,native and sea-run trout(both rainbow and cutthroat)with some weighing as muchas 2 or 3 pounds. SiltcoosLake offers similar trout fish-ing with slightly fewer, butlarger trout, including thestate record for coastal cut-throat trout (6 pounds, 4ounces).
Virtually all of the malelargemouth bass that wereguarding the nests and fry arenow finished with theirduties and have moved offthe shorelines. Smallmouthbass in the Umpqua River arebiting well and the water isclear enough to use soft plas-tic baits. Beginning small-mouth anglers might tryfishing nightcrawlers withlittle or no weight. Bluegillfishing at Loon Lake is very,very good.

That’s right, Pie-ay-yi-yiwhen it’s baked by BeebeSlater. She’s the one whogave the CDABA class onhow to make the best piedough in a blender, remem-ber? So, you know it’s goingto be grand. And there willbe plenty more to wrap yoursweet tooth around too atthe the annual bake sale inScottsburg on Saturday,June 22. The sale starts at 9a.m. and goes till the lastcookie is out the door.
The ScottsburgCommunity ServiceAssociation is a small butmighty group that takes careof the Community Centerand helps out the Fire Dept.by raising money withmonthly bingo games andlittle fundraisers like thisbake sale. So, that’s whatyou give — let’s talk aboutwhat you get: Close youreyes and think about thatfirst bite of a fresh Oregonblackberry pie. Just the rightamount of sweetness and aflaky crust full of butter. Orhow about a giant forkful ofcheesecake, baked by one ofthe best, who happens tolive in Scottsburg. Yum.
Bring your own specialbaked treat to sell and whileyou’re there buy someoneelse’s. It’s fun, and I’m seri-ous about all the moneygoing to a stellar cause.What’s not to love?
Happy birthday!Speaking of pie, have you
ever had one from Kitty’sKitchen is ChristmasForever? Divine. Just divine.The pecan in winter and theberry in summer, and what-ever is in the glass case any-time you’re there. Kitty iscelebrating a big birthdaythis month — it’s the 10thanniversary of opening theshop! It seems like just yes-terday!
In honor of the anniver-sary there will be a 10-daycelebration between June 20and 30. There’s a 10 percentoff sale on all the non-food
of course, and it’s a safe betthat Kitty will cook up 10kinds of wonderful becausethat’s just who she is. Nomatter what time of year itis, it’s Christmas in Kitty’splace. I love that — it’s aplace that makes you feelgood and God knows therearen’t enough places in theworld like that. Plus, whereelse can you get your pawson Elvis tree ornaments?Not just one but a nice vari-ety so you can have an Elvistree like I do. Couldn’tdecide between thewhite jumpsuit andthe black leatherone, and before Iknew it I hadenough for a wholetree. It happens.
There are somenon-season-spe-cific gifts too, andmore than pie forlunch. Sitck aroundfor the news of theday at the lunchtable and have a few laughs.If you’ve managed to avoidgoing there all these years,just do it! And be sure to tellKitty Happy Birthday!
... and many more!It’s another important
birthday on June 19. ThePort of Umpqua is celebrat-ing a whopping 100 years!Stop by the Port Annex (1841Winchester Ave.) at 1 p.m.for a bit of refreshment anda little bit of history. A lothas happened in the courseof a century and the Port ofUmpqua has been here forall of it as a leader, an eco-nomic base and an impor-tant part of shaping ourcommunity. Drop into thebirthday party and visit withthe port commissioners andtalk about what the future ofthe POU might hold.
Ch-ch-ch-chainsaw!Remember last week I
promised the OregonDivisional ChainsawCarving Championships(chainsaw) event at Rainbow
Plaza would be fabulous?Well, that was an under-statement! It was amazing!
I’m always astounded bythe imagination and skillused by the carvers, and Ilove going around thebooths over and over to seethe progress they are makingon the main carvings. SinceI’ve been working on theevent the past couple ofyears and getting to knowthe carvers a little bit, I havemy favorites I’m rooting fortoo. The awards ceremony
was a lot more funknowing a littlesomething abouteach of them. Suchas: Semi-pro DonBenson has beentoiling for a longtime and is consid-ered not only avery good carverbut a really niceguy by his peers.When it wasannounced he was
the big winner in the quickcarve event, the crowd —made up mostly of othercarvers and chamber volun-teers by then — went wild!He was bumped into the prodivision and we know he’llbe back next year! DebbieTremko married a carver,lives the life of a carver andworks as a carver, butSunday afternoon she reallyarrived when she scoopedthe awards as a favorite andfound her “niche” by carv-ing a bench. Afterward shehopped around the parkinglot, waving a check in the airand telling anyone whowould listen “I found theright thing, I found the thingI can do!”
Plenty to admire, that’sfor sure. And not just theartwork. The volunteers whomade it happen created anepic work of art! I can’tbegin to tell you how manymoving parts that event has,but it’s easily twice as muchas whatever you’re thinking.When I say it was art I’m notexaggerating. It was a kinet-
ic work that operated seam-lessly and perfectly — andthat isn’t something thatjust “happens.” The com-mittee, chaired by Bob DelRe and Bill Karcher, workedlike dogs. And I’m tellingyou, Frank Barth is theMAN! What a worker and heknew exactly what to do.The carvers all mentionedthat the vibe was the bestever, and we had the mostorganized and welcomingevent of all time. And it wastrue. Everyone has had achance to work together nowand know who is best atwhat, who can be countedon for certain things andthere’s a lot of trust betweeneveryone. Still, it wasamazing to see it all cometogether and flow. Our officemanager, Amy was so pre-pared we kept asking her ifshe was sure she had every-thing. She did. She alwaysdoes. She just makes it looklike no big deal. Event QueenPhyllis Dever just did it all,as usual. So there was theauction/office team, thewood and carver team, thecash team, and the volunteerteam. All working togetherlike the proverbial well-oiledmachine. And it wasn’t justthe backbreaking work ofthe event itself, it has beenan entire year of planning.Intense planning that didn’tleave room for big mistakesor shortfalls. Then on thefour days of the festival itplays out like an opera, withthe performers giving theirall. Just the ticket booth is amajor show, with all the vol-unteers from the communityputting in shifts there and atthe T-shirt sales booth. Ittakes a lot of warm bodies topull it off but when it works,it really works! In fact itworked so well that 5,000people walked through thegate. And they stayed inmotels and walked all overdowntown and went to thebeach and came back in timefor the auction every night.Just the way we planned!

“Oh, it’s fun,” she said.Event Co-Chair Bill
Karcher also interrupts theinterview to ask Keelandabout another competitor.
Keeland says the four-day event is a lot of work,but she appreciates a chanceto talk with fans.
“I love it,” she laughs.Her sculpture, this year,
was “Grandma Fishing.”She said she doesn’t
know what she’ll carve fromyear to year.
“That’s a good question,”she said. “Everybody goes‘Oh, you’ll think of some-thing.’”
Keeland admits she onlyattends two events a year,unlike some competitorswho make the circuit aroundthe world.
She attends theReedsport carving event and
also does demonstrations atthe Great Oregon Steam-Upin Brooks every summer.
“Years ago, we used tofollow the circuit whenLloyd was alive.”
During the event, Ellensells a book she and Lloydwrote: “The Lusty Life ofLoon Lake Lloyd.” That wasLloyd’s nickname.
Lloyd was 90 when hedied in January, 2011. Ellensaid he had health problemstoward the end, but stillmanaged to accompany herto the Reedsport festival.
“I have enough of Lloyd’sstories on audio to make atape,” Keeland said. “That’swhy I moved to town.”
She laughs at her bio.“It says ‘I like coming to
this event because of all thegood looking guys,’” shesaid, “even if most of themdo have long hair.”

School, whose mascot is theIndians. Governor JohnKitzhaber served as a staterepresentative and statesenator from Roseburg from1978 to 1993.
A governor’s spokes-woman said the governorwas negotiating with mem-bers of the house.
“What he wants in thebill,” Kruse said, “is to banall ‘generic’ Indian names.So, for example, ‘Indians’couldn’t be used. ‘Braves’couldn’t be used. InRoseburg we would have tocall ourselves the ‘CowCreek Indians,’ or somethinglike that, to comply withwhat he wants, which isbeyond silly.”
The bill has not beenscheduled for a hearing inthe rules committee.
“I have talked to the chairof the House RulesCommittee,” Kruse said.“We’ve worked on a lot ofstuff together. He fully sup-
ports the bill.”The office of Rep. Chris
Garrett, D-Lake Oswego, thechairman of the committee,did not respond to a requestfor information on the bill.
“Where we’re at rightnow is the Democrats in thehouse don’t want to goagainst the governor,” Krusesaid, “or especially goagainst the threat of a veto.Many of us think it’s anempty threat and so I’mhoping at some point, in thenear future, we can get themto hold a hearing on the bill.”
Kruse said he is confidentthe bill would be passed if itmade it to the house floor.
“The reality is,” Krusesaid, “the vote in the senatewas 24-4 and if we had avote in the house of a similarnumber it would be, I think,really, really hard for thegovernor to veto a bill withthat sort of legislative sup-port with a Democrat-con-trolled legislature.”
Kruse said he served inthe house, while Kitzhaberwas governor in his first twoterms.
“We did an incrediblylarge amount of work ongovernment-to-government
relationships with thetribes,” Kruse remembered.“Not just at the state level,but all the way down.”
He said that work led to amodel for the rest of thecountry.
“Quite honestly,” Krusesaid, “I think the governor’sposition on this takes therelationship backward.”
With the 2013 legislativesession winding down,Kruse isn’t sure the bill willsurvive, but said there areother chances down theroad.
“The sports ruling does-n’t take effect until 2017,” hesaid, “which would give us acouple more chances to getsomething through. Fromthe perspective of the schooldistricts, I think the soonerthey can get some certainty,the better off they’ll be.”
He said, however, he’snot giving up hope for thissession.
“We still have a couple ofweeks,” Kruse said. “So,anything’s possible. It tookme about two days, myself,to get a few minutes withChris (Garrett) and his wordto me was ‘I support thebill.’”

That informationincludes Gardiner andReedsport settling theirpayment dispute.
“That would be some ofthe questions based on theirrelationship withReedsport,” Bryant said,“and the Reedsport plant.”
Bryant says they can’tmove forward without theanswers.
“There’s a million dollardispute in between thesetwo parties,” she said. “WhyI think we can’t answer that... if Reedsport says theyowe them a million towardthe treatment plant and thatwould have a significant fac-tor on the users’ rate, if they
have to pay that million.Even if they go to IP.
“Due to the fact that it isa potential liability, at thismoment, for the district,”she said, “they need to get itresolved before they come tous for funding.”
Bryant said there was norepresentative from DouglasCounty at the meeting.
The county’s participa-tion would be key if the dis-trict wanted to apply for aCommunity DevelopmentBlock Grant.
She said that’s the onlyfunding source where thecounty would have to par-ticipate.
“They can get financingwithout the county backingthem” she said. “The otherfunding sources could all goto the district.”
Those funding sourceswould include theInfrastructure FinancingAuthority, the state’s
Department ofEnvironmental Quality, aswell as the U.S. Departmentof Agriculture RuralDevelopment.
But, she said, the disputebetween Reedsport andGardiner would have to besettled.
“Yes,” Bryant said,“because we are talkingabout ... it’s a million dollarpotential liability to the dis-trict, which would getpassed down to the users.And that could be a signifi-cant user rate increase.
“We are trying to puttogether the lowest and, atthe same time, the best costoption for the users. Whenwe start talking about sig-nificant rates it couldbecome a concern with thefact that Gardiner is cur-rently a 70 percent low andmoderate income communi-ty.”
