Letter: Concerns about Cycle Oregon event
I was surprised by the biking event at Nestucca School. I was driving that day to Lincoln City. There were so many bikes on Rt 101 I couldn’t believe that someone would get hurt on a bike or an auto accident. Then I saw the school completely filled up with vehicles and tents. I wondered how this could take place. I know see the school got $25k. The risk verses reward seems to me to be a very bad decision for a public school. Too much liability for something to go wrong on the school property and rt 101. I thank the sender for the information on the event. Jerrold Rzuczek Tillamook, OR

Local coach pitches in at two schools

Considering that there might be nearly one million high school coaches in the United States, then it’s very possible that Deem would certainly fit into that category. The reason that Deem could be considered as such a rare type of coach is because she not only...
