Habitat House Goes Up in Mill City

Volunteers spent April 23 working hard to

―blitz build‖ the framing for the new

SLAMMS (Stayton, Lyons, Aumsville, Me-

hama, Mill City and Sublimity) organized Hab-

itat for Humanity house build in Mill City. The

house is under construction at 4th and King-

wood for the Samuell family: Joseph and Tan-

ya and their three kids ages one to thirteen.

The next event will be a house blessing on

April 30, 9am at 1040 SW 4th St with refresh-

ments and the family. Finish carpenters and

other volunteers are still needed; contact Doug

at 541-401-3003 for info.

After an entire week of dress-up and fundraising by students at

Santiam High School, kids of all ages came to enjoy the festivities

April 22 at the capstone carnival at SHS gymnasium. Organized by

Caroline Gillaspy, the event raised funds to support Doernbecher‘s

Children‘s Hospital of Oregon and SW Washington.

Santiam Wolverines vs. Scio Loggers Santiam dominated the game after a two run home

run in the third inning by Philip Sexton, and an ongo-

ing strong pitching effort by Garett Nicot.

The Wolverine men won 5-3, putting them in 3rd

place for conference games in the 2A Special District

1, with a total of 3 wins and 2 losses this season. Next

home game: May 2 at 4:30pm. Santiam vs. St. Paul.

Tapping into Peace An interview with Scott Johnson and Marybeth Carden, local Dynamic En-ergetic Healing practitioners (DEH).

With a lifelong dedication to mediation and conflict resolu-tion, Marybeth Carden found herself some-

how stuck in an emotional rut. ―I had a recurring sense of unease I couldn‘t quite pin point,‖ she explains. So, in seeking out help for herself through traditional counseling she stumbled onto DEH. After her second session something clicked. Peace re-turned. Her husband Scott Johnson was astounded.

―I don‘t know what you‘re doing, but whatever it is, it‘s working,‖ he remembers telling her. DEH utilizes a technique where the client gently taps on meridian points, similar to those used in acupuncture, but without the needles. This allows for the release of stuck ―energies‖. ―If an issue doesn‘t get resolved, it doesn‘t go away. It can continue to trigger emotional and physical symp-toms,‖ explains Scott. ―We don‘t ‗heal‘ you, we teach you tools that you can use at anytime.‖ Popular with professional athletes and locals alike, this technique is be-coming more mainstream. ―It‘s not like talk therapy,‖ accord-ing to one local client, ―It works.‖ To learn more call Scott or Marybeth at

Tips for Better Growing &

Gardening with Wildlife

By Debbie Miley, member of the Lyons Garden Club

Here are a couple of inexpensive,

great tips for the coming spring:

• Tomatoes: Save your egg shells,

boil them, let the water cool, then

pour on the ground where you plan

to place your tomatoes a few days

prior to planting.

• Roses: Save those used coffee

grounds, and sprinkle them around

the bottom of your roses. Roses

love this trick.

Mixing wildlife and gardening can be

frustrating. If you have ever chased off

deer or went to pick your fruits and

discovered they were all gone, you

know the meaning.

I love my wildlife on our five acres

but it makes gardening a challenge. I

have tried every method to deter them

and the only successful ones are cover-

ing the plants with netting or using a

motion activated sprinkler. An added

bonus of the sprinkler is my grandkids

love making it go off, and every once

in a while it takes me by surprise.

From the Lyons Garden Club:

May 11, 9:30am meeting will be a no

host lunch/road trip to Egan Gardens

and Schreiner‘s Gardens, with a 61st

anniversary lunch at Glockenspiel Res-

taurant, Mt. Angel. Meet at the Park ‗n

Ride in Stayton. The Garden Club vot-

ed to purchase shrubs for the Lyons

Public Library in commemoration of

the anniversary and memory of June

Longfellow, a longtime member. New

members or visitors welcome. Dues

are $5.00 per year. 503-394-2197.

Don't Let the Clear Sky

Fool You

By Nichole Scholz, Agricultural Science and Tech-

nology Instructor at Santiam High School

As spring approaches and the sky

turns blue, the sudden urge to get out

in the yard and to start planting is

hard to resist. Keep in mind however,

that many of your annuals, vegeta-

bles, and herbs are sensitive to

frost. Temperatures in early spring

are inconsistent and can fluctuate dra-

matically overnight. While gardeners

in the Willamette Valley may start

planting around April 15th, the higher

elevation and cool temperatures in the

Santiam Canyon sets us back 3-4

weeks. To prevent damaging or kill-

ing freshly planted flowers, hold off

on planting sensitive plants until the

second weekend in May. Otherwise,

gardeners can protect spring flowers

with newspapers on nights it may

frost or freeze.

To help with your spring planting,

horticulture classes at San-

tiam High School have

been busy growing peren-

nials, annuals, vegetables,

herbs, and flower baskets

for families in the Santiam Canyon to

enjoy. Funds raised from plant sales

go to support the following year's

greenhouse classes, Santiam FFA, and

various service learning pro-

jects. This year's plant sale will run

Fridays and Saturdays from May 6th

through May 28th. Look for their

booth on Hwy 22 in Mill City, 10am

till 4pm. Info: visit

www.santiamast.org/

Scholz at 503-897-2311.

Mari-Linn Student Wins Junior Olympics Bronze

Medal By Jeri Luftus

Eighth grade Mari-Linn Middle School

student Andrew Dudley won the bronze

medal for shooting at the Junior Olympics

in Colorado Springs April 6-7, 2011 with a

score of 1092.

Dudley qualified for the Junior Olympics

by winning the Oregon gold medal in Sher-

wood at the USA Shooting competition in

mid-February.

At the Junior Olympics, Dudley competed

in the J3 age group (12-14 years) Men‘s Air Rifle two day competition, which

will help towards college scholarships. He was required to shoot two matches of

60 targets, each 33 feet away—in under one hour, forty-five minutes. Each shot

is a single shot and the bull‘s eye is the size of a period at the end of a sentence.

―Andrew has been shooting for almost 2 years,‖ said his mom Julianne Dud-

ley . ―Most kids in his age division shoot for almost 3 to 4 years before they win

top awards or are able to compete in Colorado.‖

Local Veterinarian Offers Advice on Seasonal Parasites

By Dr. Keri Sanders, DVM of Ark Animal Care, Mill City

As the spring flowers fade and the

heat of summer approaches, Santiam

Canyon residents have a pesky ecto-

parasite to worry

about: FLEAS!

Fleas become a

bigger and bigger

problem as prod-

ucts that we have

relied on for years

seem to lose some

efficacy. Store

bought items, even

when labeled safe for small dogs and

cats can be very toxic. We are happy

to have a newer product available for

our dogs and cats called Comfortis.

Comfortis is a once a month oral pill

that rapidly kills adult fleas and lasts a

full 30 days. It has been a blessing to

have such an efficacious product in our

battle against this blood sucking bug

that causes numerous other diseases in

our dogs and cats! Comfortis does not

kill ticks and is only available

by prescription from your veterinarian.

With the nicer weather, we must be-

come more vigilant about the risks that

come this time of year. In springtime

we see mosquitoes and ticks on the

rise. This can cause our dogs to be at

increased risk for heartworm disease

and tick born diseases, like Lyme dis-

ease.

While not terribly prevalent in our

area, these are considered emerging

diseases and prevention is much cheap-

er and less painful than treatment. Here

at Ark Animal Care we carry Intercep-

tor and Trifex-

is for heart-

worm preven-

tion and we

guard against

Lyme disease,

for pets at risk,

with tick control products like Front-

line and with vaccination against Lyme

disease.

For more information, call Ark

Animal Care at 503-897-6004.

Fiddle Lessons Come

to the Canyon Inspired by recent fiddle lessons given

to all students at Gates Elementary, local

resident Keri Sanders of Mill City coor-

dinated continuing group lessons for can-

yon kids. 10-12 kids are cur-

rently involved and more are

welcome. Students must pro-

vide their own instruments. For

info, call Ken Cartwright at

holding a public forum to present the results of a project to inventory wetlands

and waterways. The forum will provide information and answers to questions

about the findings.

A recent study identified seven areas of wetland habitat within the urban

growth boundary that could affect how landowners use and develop their prop-

erties. The Mill City Planning Commission is in the process of developing an

ordinance to determine how to regulate use in these areas.

Two of the largest areas identified include approximately 15 acres of mixed

wetlands south of Mill City between 4th & Tuers Lane. Another 10 acres is

located to the south of Freres Lumber Mill.

Decisions such as how much buffer zone (the protective area of land adjacent

to the wetland) and if landowners can develop replacement wetlands are still

yet to be made by The Mill City Planning Commission.

Wetland loss in the Willamette Valley has slowed in recent decades, it contin-

ues to occur, according to a recent study by the Department of State Lands and

the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The main cause of wetland loss shifted sig-

nificantly between the two time periods: Between 1982 and 1994, 67 percent of

the loss was to upland agricultural land uses. Between 1994 and 2005, a period

of rapid population and economic growth, 68 percent of the loss was to urban

and rural development.

"While we're making progress in slowing the loss of wetlands, as a state com-

mitted to a healthy environment, we clearly need to keep focused on the goal of

'no net loss of wetlands' throughout the Willamette Valley and elsewhere," said

Janet Morlan, DSL Wetlands

Program manager.

The public forum will pro-

vide property owners and res-

idents information about the

project findings. It will also

be an opportunity for resi-

dents to ask questions of staff

and the wetland consultant

about specific sites. The fo-

rum will be held at Mill City

Middle School, 450 SW Ev-

ergreen St. on Thursday May

5 from 6-8pm. An additional

meeting will be held in Scio at Scio City Hall, 38957 NW 1st Ave. Wednesday

May 4th from 6-8PM.

Certified Zumba® Fitness instruc-

dent Nicole Miller will be hosting a

The event will be held Saturday,

Miller currently holds Zumba ex-

ercise classes, a latin-inspired dance

fitness program, weekly in Mill

City.

―In the last three months, we‘ve

had more than 150 people attend

our Zumba classes,‖ Miller said.

―In our case, a couple of our Zumba

students have been diagnosed with

cancer. Zumbathon Charity events

create an opportunity---a chance to

party it up and bring awareness or

raise money for a cause. I thought

we could do our part to raise money

to find a cure for this disease.‖

The family-friendly community

event is open to people of all ages

tend the event is $10.

Local businesses have contributed

some great give-a-ways, which will

The river clarity is pretty good for spring,

and visibility is good for fish, anglers, and

boaters. Although the moderately high level

will continue for a week or more, river trips

are successful below Mill City and especially

below Stayton Island. Green‘s Bridge and

Jefferson are places that have large numbers

of steelhead mixed with trout and a few

salmon. So far, there are 1,301 summer

steelhead, 6,214 winter steelhead, and 61

Chinook salmon that have swum upstream

from Willamette Falls, and good numbers are

coming upstream past Jefferson daily. There

are good concentrations of steelhead below

most shallow islands and gravel

bars. Spoons, flies, and drift gear all work

well. Bobber and jig fishing can result in

more than a dozen strikes per day.

Packsaddle to Fishermen‘s Bend has too

much river volume for comfortable boat-

ing. Fishermen‘s Bend to Mehama has mod-

erate whitewater and a few steelhead. Me-

hama to Stayton has easy whitewater and

concentrated numbers of steelhead below the

diversion dams, which need to be por-

taged. Stayton to Green‘s Bridge includes

the moving logjam section below Shelburn

and there are many steelhead there. Green‘s

Bridge down to Jefferson and Santiam Rest

Stop at I-5 are runs with lots of steelhead.

The ―Learn the River‖ trip from Mehama to

Stayton is on May 7.

District Ranger

With snow beginning to melt in the

high country, the Detroit Ranger Dis-

trict is busy getting your local national

forest ready for the summer season.

Campgrounds Opening throughout

April and May. This year we have a

new campground operator, American

Land and Leisure. We‘re also offering

a new service: Cove Creek, Hoover,

Breiten-bush, and Riverside

Campgrounds and Cleator Bend

Group Site can now be reserved

through the National Recreation Res-

ervation System. Visit www. recrea-

tion.gov or call 1-877-444-6777 to

ensure your favorite spot is waiting

for you when you arrive.

OHV The Detroit District recently

designated the McCoy Motorized

Recreation Area for OHV use. It of-

fers over 50 miles of open roads for

OHV‘s and other passenger vehicles

in the spring, summer and fall, and

provides miles of groomed snowmo-

bile trails in the winter. Info:

atv.prd.state.or.us/places.php.

Firewood Permits are available for

$10.00 per cord with a 2 cord mini-

mum. We have firewood maps that

will show you the best areas to look

for dead, fallen logs. Gathering fire-

wood can actually warm you twice –

once when you cut it and once when

you burn it.

District Office Hours Beginning

May 21st, the Detroit Ranger District

Office, located one mile west of the

City of Detroit on Highway 22, will

be open 7 days a week (through Co-

lumbus Day) from 8:00am to 4:30pm.

For more information about the De-

troit Ranger District visit

www.fs.usda.gov/willamette or call
