ts finally heresummer, that is! With awesome weather, high-season is now in full-swing with activities and fun for locals and visitors. This June, events abound including the Dogs for the Deaf Walk, the 25th Annual Bella-Bration, the Farmers Market, Applegate Valley Day, the Boosters Club 50th Year Picnic, A Taste of Summer, opening of the 2013 Britt concert season and a slew of others youll find information on everything in this issue! A Long and Winding TrailAfter 15 years, a land swap between the city and the Motorcycle Riders Association looks as if its about to become reality. Read more in City Snapshot on page 16. Congratulations are in order for all involved in making the swap happen, especially Tony Hess and Dick Ames. Unfortunately, City Councilor Dick Ames didnt live long enough to see the swap become reality, but deserves the credit for the vision and dedication to making it happen.

Celebrate Summer!
The Coming Community Crisis? Over the next few months, I will be exploring and reporting on a looming crisis: Jacksonvilles diminishing volunteer pool happening due to demographic shifts. In other wordsour aging population means that younger volunteers are needed to step-up and take the reins for several community organizations. Community-based and focused volunteers working with the Boosters Club, Forest Park, Beekman Arboretum, Garden Club and others need volunteer replenishment to continue the mission of making Jacksonville a great place to live. For decades, these groups have provided incalculable hours of work, resulting in a better quality of life for everyone living here today. If you are reading my comments and know someone who would be interested in volunteering, cut this article out, hand it to them and ask them to call me! I will put them in-touch with someone who needs their help. With so many volunteers to thank and so much to celebrate, I hope you enjoy summertime in Our Small Town with Big Atmosphere!

Bella Union Celebrates 25 Years!

From l-r, Chef Tom Bates, Owner Jerry Hayes and Restaurant Manger Christian Hamilton This month marks the 25th anniversary of the opening of the Bella Union Restaurant, one of Jacksonvilles most treasured and enduring dining establishments. The Bellas owner and beloved leader is Jerry Hayes, a man who feels grateful for being in business for a quarter century in Jacksonville. First off, Im very proud that the Bella Union has become a gathering place for locals for the last 25 years and a memorable stop for tourists visiting Southern Oregon, Jerry says. Hayes is also keenly aware of how many locals decided to move to Jacksonville after falling in love with the town over lunch or dinner at his placeespecially during the summer months while dining on the patio under the legendary canopy of wisteria vines that provide shade and ambiance. Yeah, customers do tell me the Bella factored into their first impression of townand its always nice to hear that we helped create a good and lasting image. When Hayes bought the Bella, the business had been closed for two years, making for an uncertain but exciting future. My goal when I opened, in June of 1988, was to create a fun, casual atmosphere that was welcoming to sophisticated diners as well as families and certainly a place where the citizens of Jacksonville could feel comfortable. Today, although pleased about providing a vibrant community gathering place, Jerry is most proud of the quality employees hes attracted, trained and maintained over the years. Today, a few Bella employees who started with Hayes in 1988 are still with him, including Chef Tom Bates and Christian Hamilton. Recently, Toms daughter Megan started working at the Bella while in high school and will work summers while home from college. Chris, who started as a bus boy at age 15, is now the Bellas Restaurant Manager. Last year, his 18-year old son, Isaac, started working as a busboy while still in high school and also plans to pay his way through college bussing and waiting tables. Chris, whos also a successful real estate agent with Windermere Real Estate here in town, notes that the Bella is a place that has sparked lots of marriages, including his own! Hayes is all grins when he talks about the number of employees, including Tom and Chris, who now have children working in the restaurantmore than eight current employees are on what he deems his next generation list. Although the Bella Union became one of the regions most successful restaurants, it was not a forgone conclusion twenty-five years ago when Jacksonvilles commercial core was struggling. Hayes deserves credit for standing the test of time and taking big risks to weather economic storms. One way Hayes beat the winter business doldrums was by creating Oysters and Alesnow in its 14th year. All year long, musicians play in the Bellas bar, adding to events that attract people to town. Events like it have become very successful which are great for the Bella and other businesses in town, especially during the off-season when everyone needs a shot in the arm. Jerry invites everyone to Bellabration XXVwhich promises to be another fun event. The event will feature wine tasting and appetizers on the patio, as well as jazz music from David Pinskys Rhythm Kings Quartet, a 25-year performer at the Bella. My vision is for this event to attract as many of the old Bella employees and regular customers to a grand reunion that will be a fun evening, as well as a spring board for moving ahead for 25 more years!

News From Britt Hill by

Donna Briggs, Britt Executive Director
nyone whos part of the Jacksonville community knows how important collaboration is. At Britt, were lucky to have great partnerships with several organizations. Together, we all do great things! The Taste of Summer event, on June 8 this year, has grown to become a successful event for everyone. Britt partners with the Chamber of Commerce and JOBA (Jacksonville Oregon Business Association) to jointly present the event, and each year we welcome new players. Thanks to all the shops, wineries, restaurants, businesses, performers, artists and service groups who come together to make this such a fun event for the whole city. Were proud to be part of it. Weve also been partnering with the Boosters on another key project. The Peter Britt Gardens, located at the base of Peter Britts former hillside estate, serves multiple purposes as a link between sections of the Jacksonville Woodlands Trails System, an entryway to Britt Festivals, and a quiet park, where Jacksonville visitors and residents can relax and enjoy themselves. Currently, the Lower Gardens are very poorly lit, due to the degradation of the existing lighting fixtures. This lack of

Lighting the Way

lighting poses a major safety risk to parkgoers and inhibits access to the park and its facilities. The Jacksonville Boosters Foundation, in tandem with the City of Jacksonville, spearheaded the replacement of the pathways in the Lower Gardens in 2012, which was Phase 1 of the project to restore the Gardens to their former glory. Both the City and the Boosters worked closely with Britt Festivals in making the pathways consistent with the ones already inside Britts venue. Similarly, the lighting fixtures to be used for Phase 2 of this project are the same ones Britt Festivals used in their entryway. These efforts aim to keep the look of the Gardens consistent, whether youre inside the Britt venue enjoying a concert, or strolling through the Lower Gardens on the way to the Woodland Trails. In recent months Britt Festivals has been assisting the Boosters Club with funding strategies to help make new lighting a reality. The Jacksonville Boosters Foundation, Britt Festivals and the City of Jacksonville are committed to this Restoration Project and will work together to make it happen. The Taste of Summer and the lighting restoration project are just two of the many rewarding examples of collaboration in Jacksonville. As always, were grateful to be part of an engaged, supportive community. Comments or questions for Britt Festivals? Email Donna at ed@brittfest.org.

Then we received a $5,000 grant from the Oregon Cultural Trust, which we used as matching funds for a $5,000 Kinsman Foundation grant. She also emphasizes the funds that JHS raised through Victorian Christmas tours, Victorian theme tours, and last summers Living History program. There are some incredible volunteers who made the tours possible. They love the Beekman House and are anxious to see it reopen. City Administrator Jeff Alvis added his comments. "We have JHS to thank for raising the money that is making these repairs to the House possible. And the City appreciates all of the effort the Jacksonville Heritage Society has put into the Beekman House. A lot of people enjoyed the tours and Living History programs last summer and during Victorian Christmas and look forward to seeing it re-open." When asked about plans to reopen the House, Kingsnorth notes that everything will be contingent on both completion of the repairs and City approval. Stephanie Butlerthe Beekman House Volunteer Coordinator and trainerand I have volunteered to organize tours under City of Jacksonville auspices. Current proposals include reopening the House from 11:00am to 4:00pm on the second Saturday of July, August, and September. This would coincide with the Jacksonville cemetery tours and Jacksonville would be able to offer a History Saturday. And of course we would like to be open for Victorian Christmas. Its too late this year to offer the Living History program, but we would like to offer private group tours of the House and the Bank. As to the future of the Heritage Society, Kingsnorth said, Once the Beekman House project is completed, we will have accomplished our initial objectives. Were just glad that the Beekman House, the Beekman Bank, the Courthouse complex, and the Catholic Rectory are now in good hands.

They also recruited members of Boy Scout Troop 17 for a Tom Sawyer Day of painting pickets. Then Rotary members finished the job this year after we ran out of paint last summer. Kingsnorth continues, Local artists, Warren Straus and Ray Foster made significant contributions. The Presbyterian Church shared the proceeds from their Strawberry Festival. Art Presence members donated a percentage of the sale of their Beekman House paintings. Other community members have donated cash as well as craft items that we sold at Mrs. Beekmans Christmas Bazaar. The Heritage Society also received several grants to help pay for the repairs. The City Lodging Tax Grant provided some seed money, Kingsnorth explains.

ome celebrate the Boosters Clubs 50th Anniversary on June 10 from 3:00-4:00pm in the newly-restored Peter Britt Gardens on the Britt grounds at First and Pine Streets. (Ample parking is available in the upper Britt parking lot.) The Club will have an official ribbon-cutting ceremony for the gardens, followed by speakers from the City, Boosters Club and Foundation, Britt Festivals and the JVille Garden Club. Enjoy light refreshments and music and celebrate one of Jacksonvilles most successful volunteer organizations! Founded in 1963, the Jacksonville Boosters Club is a group of civic-minded individuals who for 50 years have donated their labor, skill and funding to complete many community projects. On any given day, you will see Club members Flying the Flags on national holidays, maintaining benches located throughout the city, participating in cemetery cleanups, volunteering in parades and many other volunteer opportunities. Through its fundraising events and efforts, the Club has regularly donated funds to Jacksonville Elementary School, Food & Friends, Britt Music Festival, Jacksonville Woodlands Association and the City of Jacksonville. In addition, the Boosters Foundation, incorporated in 2003, raises funds to support the restoration, preservation, maintenance and improvement of both public and nonprofit-owned facilities. Learn more at www.jacksonvilleboosters.org. Robertson (Robbie) Collins was one of the original founders of the Jacksonville Boosters Club in 1963. Pictured here in his study, and outside of his home (now the location of South Stage Cellars winery) with his good friend Ginger Rogers, retired actress and dancer.

Jacksonville Boosters Club Celebrates 50 Years!

The restoration of Peter Britt Gardens has been a cooperative effort between The Jacksonville Boosters Club (primary sponsor), The City of Jacksonville, and the Jacksonville Garden Club. Hundreds of hours of volunteer time have been logged cleaning, pruning, installing 400 feet of ADA paved pathways, hundreds of feet of new irrigation lines, and planting of over 100 new plants which are consistent with plants included in Peter Britt's original gardens. Future phases will include plantings of hundreds of more shrubs, plants and trees as well as improved lighting for the pathways. Shown in these photos are members of the Jacksonville Boosters Club taking a break during installation of the pavers, wheel-barrowing bark dust to freshen the garden beds by the white picket fence on First and Pine streets which was installed by the Boosters, and planting crews.

In 1971, the Jacksonville Boosters Club initiated the first Jacksonville Home Tour to invite public viewing of historic Jacksonville Homes. To this day, home tours bring hundreds of visitors to Jacksonville every second (even) year. The Jacksonville Boosters Club will again host a home tour in the spring of 2014. In the 1990's the Jacksonville Boosters Club initiated the Fly the Flags program in Jacksonville. Club members continue to maintain and fly the flags every national holiday. In the early 2000's, the Jacksonville Boosters Club began holding an annual garage sale each September. It has now grown into a city-wide event which attracts hundreds of bargain hunters and visitors to Jacksonville the weekend after Labor Day each September. The Jacksonville Boosters garage sale booth is located in the Sterling Bank parking lot." See ad on page 30. Photo from the dedication ceremony of the newly-restored City Hall, June 13, 1981. The restoration was funded by the Jacksonville Boosters Club, the City of Jacksonville, and the National Parks Service under the provisions of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966. Senator Mark Hatfield is the gentleman seated in the center of the photo holding a white paper. Excerpt from the speech he gave when dedicating the restored building: "You know, as I come to Jacksonville for this important event I don't think there is any accident between the fact that we are in the midst of a preservation action and that we are also in the center of a great cultural program as Peter Britt Music, Shakespeare, and so forth. There is a natural link between preserving our heritage and the beauty we have in the cultural performing arts. So I want to commend the people of Jacksonville, the Jacksonville Boosters Club, the mayor, the council, the citizens at large for giving this great jewel to the State of Oregon. Remember that many towns are old, but Jacksonville is both old and beautiful." To this day, the Jacksonville Boosters Club continues to hold it's monthly meetings in the historic Old City Hall. General meetings are held on the second Monday of each month from September-May at the Old City Hall. Light refreshments begin at 9:30am, followed by a program at 10:00am.

Boosters members volunteer in seasonal cleanups at the Historic Jacksonville Cemetery as well as the annual "Meet the Pioneers" tours which take place in the cemetery each October.

DREAM

Jacksonville residents Jim and Carmen Whitlock have been in the building and design business in the Rogue Valley for 23 years and are now pleased to announce the opening of Eleglance Home Dcore. The full-service retail and interior design business is located at the northeast corner of California & 5th Street in a charming historic house at 110 N. 5th Street. In recent weeks, the Whitlocks have spruced-up the interior and exterior of the building with fresh plants, paint and signage. Carmen says, Back in 1990, we started Advanced Homebuilders and then branched-out with Eleglance Stylish Interiors. Since that time, our building, remodeling, designing and decorating businesses have served hundreds of homeowners and small offices in the Rogue Valley. With the current up-tick in building and interior design activity, Jim explains, Our timing seems right to open a boutique-style furniture and home dcore store. And, I will be able to offer our clients computer-generated drafting services for new home construction projects or remodels from the new location. A soft opening of the new store is slated in June with a Grand Opening on July 1. According to Carmen, We have been receiving shipments of quality, unique

and harder-to-find pieces of furniture and accessories on a daily basis and look forward to sharing everything with our customers from the new store. Customers will be able to purchase items off the floor or have them customized to their exact specifications. Eleglance will feature furniture and accessory lines from Drexel Heritage, Hooker Furniture, Lexington, Omnia Leather, American Elegance, Four Hands and others. Additionally, customers will find area rugs, mirrors, custom-made frames, floor and wall clocks from Howard Miller, a nice sampling of lamps, bookends, candleholders, vases, floral arrangements, unusual decorative items, pillows and a host of other coordinating items. Interior design services will be offered by Carmen and other design associates in the store or in your home. Working alongside Carmen and Jim, their daughter, Katie Palmer will help run the shop on a day-to-day basis. Jim adds, Its our sincere hope that our store will compliment others in Jacksonville and help draw more people to our wonderful small town. We also hope to fill a niche that is now missing in the surrounding area for nicer furniture and furnishings.

The Unfettered Criticby

Paula Block Erdmann & Terry Erdmann
The Britt-ish Invasion
ts one of the wonders of Jacksonville. Youll be walking down the street on a summer afternoon, stepping in and out of shops, when suddenly youll hear a band tuning up, live, balancing amplitude and timbre, one instrument at a time. That, youll think, is the Steve Miller band, doing a sound check just up the hill. And youll be right. Unless, of course, its Kenny Loggins, or Chris Isaak, or the Doobie Brothers. Or any other of the world-class musicians who bring their acts and their art to the Britt Festival. How lucky we are that its June, because the 2013 Britt season is about to begin. On Opening Night, Cindi Lauper is coming to town. Lauper rose to our attention in l983 with her single, Girls Just Want to Have Fun. The song was a hoot, but the hauntingly beautiful Time After Time, which she co-wrote, sealed the deal for us. Two decades later, shes having more fun than ever as composer of the hit Broadway musical Kinky Bootswhich recently received thirteen Tony Award nominations. If Lauper wins for Best Score, shell be the first woman to win solo in the category. How could any of us miss the chance to hear this composer perform? (June 15). Twenty-eight musical evenings will follow, including The Music of ABBA: Arrival From Sweden (June 30), which promises to make us want to dance, and the return of Britt favorites Michael Franti (July 6), Pink Martini (July 16) and Brandi Carlile (August 21). Perhaps the most exciting announcement is for Robert Plant presents The Sensational Shape Shifters. Since his days fronting Led Zeppelin, fans have labeled Plant the Golden God of rock n roll. His recent pairing with Allison Krauss gave birth to a gentle sound that added dimension to his hard rock reputation. Plant says that his new band was inspired by the roots music of Mississippi and Appalachia, and influences collected in a lifetime of meander and journey. Thats enough to

get us to the hill (July 2). Plants not the only hard rocker heading our way. If you havent caught Grace Potter & the Nocturnals, its time to refresh your youtube connection. Combining Janis Jopin-esque bluster with a toughened-up Nora Jones vibe, Potter will burst into no-nonsense Memphis grooves and a touch of reggae (June 24). Speaking of reggae, the genre may be an underlying theme of the season, with Jamaican music legend Ziggy Marley joined by the Rogue Valleys own Intergalactic Reggae Revolutionaries Indubious (June 29), Michael Franti (July 6), and Rebelution/Matisyahu (August 20). For those among us seeking softer sounds, plan to be on the hill for a much awaited John Prine appearance. Prines position as a top singer/songwriter has held since the 1970s. If you only know of his compositions Have a Little Faith In Me, or Bonnie Raitts version of Angel From Montgomery, youll find this show a revelation (June 28). Another JohnJohn Hiattwriter of the infectious Bonnie Raitt hit, Thing Called Love, will treat us to his own versions of his creations that became hits for Bob Dylan, Linda Ronstadt, B.B. King, Jimmy Buffettthe list goes on. To top off the evening, legendary rhythm and blues/ gospel singer Mavis Staples will own the stage (July 5). Oops, weve run out of spaceand we havent mentioned twin sister indie rockers Tegan and Sara (August 30), ukulele master Jake Shimabukuro (September 14) or the show were looking forward to perhaps most of all, Jeff Bridges (July 24). As for the centerpiece of the Britt Experience, the Classical Festival, well see you next month! Paula and Terry each have long impressivesounding resumes implying that they are battle-scarred veterans of life within the Hollywood studios. Theyre now happily relaxed into Jacksonville.

What a Difference a Day Makes!

The Jacksonville-Applegate Rotary Clubs annual Rotary at Work Day made a noticeable difference at Jacksonvilles historic Beekman House. On Saturday, April 27, local Rotary members turned out in force to paint pickets and level brick walkways that had either settled or been raised by tree roots. Not only does this pioneer homestead look spiffier, it also provides safer access for visitors later this summer. Thank you Rotary Club!

City Snapshot
Land Swap Grant Approved: On May 7, the long-awaited land swap with the Motorcycle Riders Association took one step closer to becoming reality after the state Parks Commission awarded the MRA $684,000 to purchase 380 acres of land in the upper reaches of the citys 1800 acre watershed. In exchange, the city will take control of 40 acres of MRA land, including its parking lot and staging area, in the lower watershed. The transfer effectively removes motorized vehicles from the Forest Park. Although highly contentious at times, the deal solidifies the future of the Forest Park by making its hiking and mountain biking trails an exclusively non-motorized use area. The city has indicated it will place $200,000 into an account for the engineering/repair work for the dam and spillway and utilize $300,000 to pay-off the mortgage debt on the Police Station. City Council, May 7 & 21: A new 5-year lease agreement for the Brunner Building between the city and the Senior Center group operating the Thrift Shop was unanimously approved. A newly-designed gateway entrance sign on South Stage Road received a thumbs-up, pending HARC approval. When replaced, the new sign will replace a decaying wood sign and include verbiage that identifies Jacksonville as a National Historic Landmark, Home of Britt Festivals, and the Heart of Southern Oregon Wine Country. Council approved changes to the citys Personnel Manual and adopted new identity theft policies related to internal financial control mechanisms. Council reviewed Chapters 1-4 and 5-8 of the soon-to-be updated Municipal Code and offered suggested alterations. Of note: Councilors acting in the role of Liaison at the Commission and/or Committee level will no longer be voting members. On May 21, concerned resident Linda Graham read a letter during Public Comment urging the council to address what she called excessive noise emanating from the Boomtown Saloon when live music bands perform. Graham stated that unacceptable noise levels are unfair to residents, nearby lodging guests and restaurant owners who have to put up with the nuisance. Grahams letter also inferred that that a conflict of interest exists with enforcement because Jacksonville Police Chief Towes band frequently plays at the establishment. Graham concluded by calling for revising noise standards in historic brick buildings.

A Few Minutes with the Mayor

by Paul Becker
t seems appropriate to lead off this months column by mentioning the successful conclusion to the MRA land swap and sale transaction with the City. On May 8th, the Oregon State Parks Commission unanimously approved the grant request from the MRA for $680,000 which will be paid to the City for the 380 acres which lies almost five miles from downtown. In addition, the MRA will turn over the 40-acres and the improved parking lot to the City. The State Parks Commission also added $4,000 to the grant which will reimburse the City for its cost in appraising the value of the land. This transaction will provide the City with the necessary funds to begin the process of breaching the dam a task the City has come under increasing pressure from the state to perform. It also provides the City with money to pay-off the Police Department building and end that sometimes contentious chapter in the citys past. Last month I wrote about the idea of moving the City offices to the ground floor of the Courthouse. I was pleasantly surprised at the reaction to that column. I dont recall ever hearing as many positive comments from people as on this one. The Courthouse is the one icon that shouts out where we are and who we are JACKSONVILLE a historic landmark town, and it does seem appropriate that citizens would go there to talk to members of their city government. Such a move also secures the continued presence of the building which came close to being demolished in the past. I would like to thank everyone who has come forth in support of this idea. It will definitely be on the table for the City Council to review and consider together with other ideas. Last night I was watching the

News From The Friends of Jacksonville's Historic Cemetery

by Dirk J. Siedlecki, President - FOJHC
Volunteers neededLooking for an easy and rewarding volunteer project? Join us on Saturday, June 15, and the third Saturday of the month through September 21, and help us to clean the grave markers in Jacksonville's Historic Cemetery. Learn when and which markers should be cleaned, the proper cleaning techniques, and the proper tools to use. This is a hands-on project so dress accordingly. Tools, supplies, and handouts will be provided. Workshop begins at 9:00am and marker cleaning runs until 12noon. You may want to bring a stool to sit on, sunscreen and a hat. Meet at the Sexton's Tool House, top of the Cemetery Road, for instructions and to pick up supplies. Those attending the April workshop had a great time and managed to clean 14 headstones. History SaturdayJoin us on Saturday, June 8, and the second Saturday of the month through September 14, for this year's brand new History Saturday Program. The June program, "Love and Courtship in the Cemetery" will be presented by Anne Peugh and Lynn Ransford and promises to be a fun and interesting talk and tour. Meet your Docents by the Sexton's Tool House at the top of the Cemetery Road. The program, which starts at 10:00am, will include a short walking tour so be sure to wear comfortable walking shoes. While there is no fee or reservations required, donations are greatly appreciated and will help support restoration of the Jacob Ish family block. We really appreciated the wonderful turn out and enthusiastic audience for our May 11 presentation, "kicking-off" this year's History Saturday Program. Visit our website at www. friendsjvillecemetery.org for additional details on these events and all our cemetery activities. Thank you for supporting the Friends of Jacksonville's Historic Cemetery.

Random Musings
disturbing news from Josephine County and Grants Pass which reported on the significant increase in crime following the reduction in law enforcement staffing in the sheriffs department. The stories of citizens who had been robbed were bad enough, but in some cases people had been robbed more than once in one instance three times. This borders on lawlessness. Crime left unchecked leads to greater crime, increasing violence, and an unease which lies heavily upon citizens. There are two things which citizens expect from government - police and fire protection. When they break down, or are absent, the community deteriorates. We in Jacksonville are fortunate. We have a police department which is staffed with an excellent group of officers, led by a chief with years of experience who is current with law enforcement methodology and who knows many of our citizens personally. We have also been out of the mainstream of a slow but rising crime problem in other parts of the valley with the Interstate 5 corridor acting as the conduit for lawbreakers. Nonetheless, it would be unreasonable to assume that our city is immune to these problems. I grew up in a time when most houses in rural communities used skeleton keys. Sadly, those days are gone. Crime is no respecter of neighborhoods or boundary lines. When you park your car lock it. When you leave your house lock it. When you see something suspicious report it. On that note, in closing, let me draw your attention to the announcement for this months film, THE ROARING TWENTIES, which deals with a particularly lawless period in American history one written by a journalist who lived through that tumultuous era. When I look at the national headlines I sometimes wonder if history isnt repeating itself.

Announcing the 2nd Annual Mayors 4th Of July Picnic!

Mayor Paul Becker and the City of Jacksonville invite everyone to come out and celebrate July 4th on the Courthouse grounds from Noon until 3:00pm and enjoy complimentary hot dogs, buns, chips and bottled water. Picnickers may opt to bring their own food and drinks if they so desire. Once again, the Fire Department will be organizing activities for children and adults. New this year, the Jacksonville Trolley will be stationed on the grounds, offering picnickers free trolley rides around town. Come celebrate the 4th and join the fun with your Jacksonville friends and neighbors!

June Movie Night at Old City Hall

This month, we present perhaps the best film ever made about the Roaring Twenties a decade of greed and corruption on Wall Street and Main Street. The ills we read about in todays news also happened in the years following World War I. The characters, though veiled as fictional, are based upon real people, while the story mirrors real life and is shown as only Warner Brothers could show it. The film is THE ROARING TWENTIES and was chosen as one of the ten best films ever made in its genre as a gangster film. Its plot scenarios are authentic and draw upon events of the day as seen under the penmanship of Mark Hellinger who wrote the short story used to make this film. It contains a stellar cast Jimmy Cagney, Humphrey Bogart, Gladys George and Priscilla Lane. They convincingly portray the characters represented people in the headlines only ten years before this film was made. Finally, it is without a doubt one of Cagneys greatest performances. This film is so good it ranked 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. That is a rare accomplishment. If you have never seen THE ROARING TWENTIES or, if you saw it years ago on television, dont miss this one. The digital restoration used on films these days allows the audience to see them as they never have been seen since their first release. THE ROARING TWENTIES will screen at Old City Hall on June 14th at 7:00pm. Doors open at 6:30pm.

Chamber Chat

by The Jacksonville Chamber of Commerce

he Chamber of Commerce has taken the lead on Jacksonvilles tourism efforts for many years, including representing Jacksonville at regional and state travel and tourism meetings. There are three annual meetings: the Governors Conference on Travel, Welcome and Visitors Center Training Conference, and Southern Oregon Visitors Association (SOVA)s Marketing Symposium. These meetings occur in early spring prior to the summer travel season. Attending these conferences benefits Jacksonville in three ways: professional development/training for chamber members and staff working on travel and tourism, increasing awareness of Jacksonville as a destination in Oregons travel industry, and building and maintaining a strong network among the travel industry participants. Travel Oregon, the coordinator of the first two conferences, is the official travel organization for the state of Oregon. The organization is funded through the 1% state lodging tax. The purpose of this organization is to promote tourism for the state, accomplished via promotional campaigns, representing Oregon at industry events nationwide and building strategic partnerships. More information is available at www.traveloregon.com. Travel Oregon provides updates on their initiatives and training opportunities through the Governors Conference which is attended by visitors center (vc) staff and regional tourism representatives as well as individual industry participants.

The agenda is a combination of handson training sessions on travel-related topics, updates on marketing initiatives at the state level and panels of industry participants sharing their experiences related to tourism. The conference provides an excellent opportunity for Jacksonville representatives to network with Travel Oregon staff, tour coordinators and industry participants. The Chamber frequently does an exhibit at this conference in order to maintain Jacksonvilles awareness level. The Welcome and Visitors Center Training Conference is attended by people who staff these centers across the state. Each year the meeting is held in a different location in order for the vc staff to increase their knowledge of the different destinations across the state. This allows for more confident referrals for travelers interested in exploring Oregon. It is also a key networking opportunity for our local staff to build relationships with her peers across the state so she can serve as a point person for inquiries about Jacksonville. SOVA is our regional travel organization which coordinates a Marketing Symposium. This meeting is an opportunity for tourism-based business owners and vc staff from the region to hear about regional initiatives, cooperative marketing plans and updates from Travel Oregon. For information on the Jacksonville Chamber, or to join, please contact the visitors center at 185 N Oregon Street, 541-899-8118 or chamber@jacksonvilleoregon.org.

Library Group Seeks New Board Member

The Friends of the Jacksonville Library (JFOL) is seeking a new board member to fill a vacant volunteer position with the group. President Joan Avery says, The purpose of our group is to endorse literacy and learning by supporting the mission of the Jackson County Library. You might recognize many of the current board members around town or spot them during one of the twice-yearly book sales at the librarys Naversen Room. Our priority is to raise funds so that our library is open four hours each Saturday in addition to the sixteen hours a week the county provides, Avery notes. Since the Jacksonville branch is a part of the countywide system, this means residents have access to material anywhere in the county as well as the advantages of centralized purchasing and processing which reduces overall cost. Underscoring the importance of the work the JFOL does, Avery adds, It also means that if the library system is closed due to budget constraints, everyone from babies to seniors will no longer have access to a building that provides a major source of information and pleasure, as well as losing a major community gathering place, the Naversen Room. Candidates for the JFOL board should expect to meet once a month, except during the summer months. The group meets for about an hour each time in the Naversen Room at the library. Avery, a retired librarian from Los Angeles is quick to note, Board members dont need professional library experiencethey only need to care about libraries and their importance to the community. New members should be willing to help with our Book Sales and programs and have ideas about how to make Jacksonville residents aware that the library of today is more than books. They do need to be readers. Whomever steps-up to fill the vacant seat will join Avery and Annette McGregor, Vice-President, Bruce Garrett, Treasurer, April Bower, Secretary, Gus Hughbanks, who took over sorting and transporting books for the Book Sales, and former City Councilor Donna Schatz, who has been involved since the library was built. Interested candidates are urged to contact Joan Avery at 541-702-2114 or via email at mailjoanavery@charter.net.

A Cup of Conversation by
Michael Kell of GoodBean Coffee
s many of us are now familiar with the blogosphere of political opinion, especially Facebook, Ive concluded that pretty much no one is ever significantly moved in the way they perceive the world through a Facebook post regardless of content. On the other hand, Im certain many are estranged if not offended by a good deal of the rhetoric. Therefore, the technology to reach billions with a click has also polarized us, like exhausted little kids in a sand-box with one crying, one hitting and one sitting in the corner with a mouth full of sand and a load in the pants. Ive been breaking one of my cardinal rules by engaging in cyber-political dialog and recently on someones Facebook feed who happened to be a neighbor in our small town. I know better. In school, competitive debate desensitized me to the very real emotional side of an argument. The argument is more sport to me but not necessarily to the other guy posting his opinion. He sees me as the @#%$^& who just doesnt get it and the very reason this country is going to ^%&# . The dialog necessarily spun out of control ending in hurt feelings (theirs) and unvarnished rhetoric (mine). An important topic of the day was made quickly irrelevant by the larger issue of a mutual lack of acceptance and anothers right to opinion. I truly regret my participation in such foolishness and apologized for my part. The gesture has not been reciprocated but Im not holding my breath. If it wasnt for a business page on Facebook, Id terminate the socialnetwork site for a few reasons. Firstly, its a time-suck to the nth degree. Ive discovered parts in the day when I could be planning or in thoughtful consideration over an endless to-do list but Im defaulting to meaningless (to me) feeds about somebody elses to-do list.

Jacksonville Inn
The Rogue Valleys summer weather is here, and the 2013 Britt Season is about to begin.

Sandbox Politics
I know it doesnt sound like it but Im smarter than this. Secondly, the medium of communication in email, text and post is severely flawed and no amount of LMAO will change that. Think about it, millions of people spend billions of dollars going to relational counseling to figure out what the HECK the other is talking about and this is face-to-face communication with all the benefits of voice and facial inflection, tone, gesture plus the aid of a objective third party. Similarly, we spend megabillions in lawyers fees and arbitration to discern the true intent of meticulouslycrafted documents communicating what we really meant with the help of a highly-educated judge to light the way. So how is it possible to clearly communicate deep thought and feeling through cryptic social-network messaging to virtual friends? Somebodys going to be grossly offended intentionally or unintentionally. Its just not worth it. I could create a ghost-profile, infiltrate friends who dont recognize me and then post with abandon hiding behind a face of anonymity but thats like wearing a Batman costume in the sandbox. Sooner or later somebody is going to figure out youre really little Brucey Wayne who lives down the street and where does that leave you? Lastly, weighing the benefits of productivity and convenience through social-network mediums against the estrangement and wall-building in epidemic proportions, Ive concluded if I need my almost-worthless political opinion heard by those who agree with me, a well-written memo to my congressman should suffice. After all, one can only take so much unfriending before having to sit in the corner of the sandbox chewing on sand, chaffing hard and asking oneself why. Be Good, not bitter.

My Neighbor's Garden
usually END my column sharing the gardeners favorite spot in the garden I can sumup this months garden by sharing right up-front that with Darryll and Leigh Anne Salvadori, on California St., they had a tough time selecting...they have at least 4 favorite perfect places! Darryll and Leigh Anne have secret garden places tucked everywhere on their property and every one a special place as they have mastered the use of a garden space. Before moving from Healdsburg California, where they won Garden of the Year! in 2007, they spent 4 months looking before selecting Jacksonville. 24 trees later and planting galore, it is evident why they received that award! Darryll and Leigh Anne have a fun relationship in gardening. He is the idea guy, driven by symmetry, balance, and a 20 year vision. Leigh Anne loves color and random abandon and is addicted to filling every spot with color, happily deferring to Darryll's sense of the garden. The result is a complimentary combination with a glorious reward of color, balance, and adventure! With blank ground and a slope of retaining walls, they transformed their small lot space into secret gardens... and I do mean plural. The front garden and porch face California Street and beckon you to the entry with a dynamic sloping driveway carpeted with stone pavers that become walkways through bowles mauve, yarrow, lavender, rock rose, and layers of color. A fire pit surrounded by Adirondack chairs sits center, while hidden in foliage in the corner is Darryll's treasured swinging bench, a promise to his daughter. The front porch, lined with brimming tin planters, adds country cottage to their natural wood siding, and a relaxing garden world exists even before you cross a threshold! The secret garden begins when you pass under the white arbor at the end of the drive. Working around and over retaining walls and elevation changes, they created hidden pockets of color, fragrance, and privacy. Curving paths lead to beautiful roses fanned around

graceful corners. The roses are a variety of lush, deep-layered colors of carpet, bush, and climbing roses and each is perfectly placed, along a path, draping a wall or sheltering a secret. I lost touch with writing down plants, as I was held in the beauty and color, but specifically in the placement and balance of it all. The walkway is lined with layers including lilacs and trees that cover a hidden gazebo in the center. I am only 15 ft. into this garden! To the left is a scene from Darryll's Italian roots... a long bocce ball court, tucked low along the fence line. Festooned with lattice pergolas and lighting at both ends, more roses cascade the sides. A bistro table and chairs offer a viewing spot and an Italian world of bocce, wine, and conversation is born! After a practice throw, I realized I had to get back on taskthe gazebo! Their goal? Create a spot where, when sitting, you see beauty looking out, and when looking into the gazebo you see beauty all around it. Done! At the back lowest area (again tucked!) is an above-ground pool surrounded by pines and seclusion. There is a lot going on here ... walkways, a gazebo, a pool, bocce ball court, and seating and eating areas under a pergola - all perfected with symmetry, balance, and color! As I head to the other side of the home, misguidedly thinking I was done, the walkway on the side of the home is lined with planters. Around a corner, it widens to 8 feet and reveals a retired playhouse turned garden shed. In front sits a small bistro table and chairs with a carpet of tiny violas. Next, along the fence walkway, potato vine drapes and shrouds a classy 6-foot tall cage, home to the family rabbit! I could cover all the usual favorite time in the garden, place, frustrations etc. that I normally cover with each gardener, but lets get serious, their favorite time is every day and every moment they are creating in the garden. They show the joy of it all and shared a common belief in trying to make a place better than it was and leave something beautiful behind.

Love Your Landscape by Adam Haynes

ince Memorial Day weekend signals the kickoff of outdoor entertaining season, Ive been thinking about the importance of putting the pieces in place to throw a great outdoor party! This time of year is perfect for a variety of outdoor gatherings: graduation parties, backyard weddings, bridal showers, brunches and all types of casual get-togethers with friends. My favorite elements for creating an inviting outdoor living area also double as additions to your outdoor space that can enhance how much you enjoy hosting these sorts of parties. A cooking center, portable or built-in bar are at the top of the list for outdoor entertaining musts-haves. But I also recommend built-in focal points such as fire pits that enhance the feeling of being outdoors while fostering a warm and inviting area to entertain. Another item along these lines is the outdoor fireplace or pizza oven. While the pizza oven is fairly specific in function, the impact of such a piece can set the overall tone for the type of entertaining you like to do. You definitely want to consider the flow of trafficif there are natural paths built into your outdoor design, then you should utilize them by adding sitting benches in prime locations. When it comes to making guests feel comfortable outdoors, the furnishings can make all the difference, too. Make sure to have a variety of seating options. I like built-in sitting walls that add to a casual outdoor atmosphere, but formal seating is also important. Even a few lounge chairs thrown into the mix will give guests a variety of choices that will suit their particular idea

Outdoor Entertaining Now In Season

of comfort. Bistro tables and chairs are really ideal for cocktail-type parties common this time of year, and they work well to create smaller conversation areas with furniture. The same is true for pub-style tables and chairs. On the extremely casual side of the spectrum, consider adding a hammock or two! If outdoor relaxation is your goal, then a sturdy hammock is worth looking into. Another great way to enjoy your outdoor living area is to establish a mobile, outdoor entertainment center. This can be accomplished by simply running cable TV to your outdoor cooking center or up into a pergola. Although the cable needs to be permanently installed, the TV can either be permanent or brought out for the evening. The mobility of the entertainment center addresses the obvious concerns about leaving a TV outside year-round. And, its super easy to design an iPod dock with speakers into the outdoor entertainment center as well. The great news about incorporating a mobile, outdoor entertainment center is that its generally easy on the pocketbook. With so many months of beautiful weather ahead, I say lets make the most of it by entertaining outdoors with style. Adam Haynes is the owner of Artisan Landscapes, Inc.

The Weed Wrangler by Bob Budesa

Debunking the Myths
ave you ever heard this: If a little is good, a lot is better? When dealing with herbicides, nothing could be further from the truth! Herbicides, especially those that work systemically (reaching deep into the roots), require that they not do much damage until theyve worked their way deep into the plants roots. Keep in-mind that the only way an herbicide will injure a plant is if the plant is actively growing. Therefore, spraying a plant that has senesced and died back for the season will do no harm, and be a waste of time and money. The cells through which the formulation must pass have dried, and made further passage impossible. The same thing happens if you overload your mixture with more active ingredient than you need, or add other formulations. (Never do this unless you know what youre doing). You basically kill the initial cells upon contact, keeping the formulation from passing further into the plants root system, depriving you of your desired result. Youll see what is referred to as top kill, but the roots will still be viable, ready to sprout again, driving you further to the brink of insanity!

Read the label! The label is the law! Most herbicide formulations call for quite low concentrations for foliar applications.

Olive Oil 101: Polyphenols and the Fountain of Youth

am embarrassed to admit how much oil I consume on a daily basisso, of course, Im thrilled to know the oil is chock-full of polyphenols. Polyphenol is a geeky term for an important class of antioxidants found in extra virgin olive oil. These antioxidants have become a popular indicator of quality, shelf life and healthiness. The best partyou can actually taste these antioxidants! There is a direct correlation between healthy oil and flavorful oil. The rich flavors, aromas and pepper you enjoy in quality extra virgin olive oil are also giving you a healthy dose of polyphenols. For years most of the healthfulness of olive oil was thought to be solely in the oils lovely fat profile, however, new studies are finding olive antioxidants to be key players. There are more than thirty different types of polyphenols found in olivesoleuropein, hydroxytyrosol and oleocanthal being the most well known. Polyphenols have been shown helpful in lowering LDL, cancer prevention, anti-aging, diabetes prevention and more. Just this month a study was released suggesting a link to improvement in learning and memory capabilities. Researchers are continuing to research and understand how these antioxidants work their magicit is, however, clear that olive polyphenols have a big impact on human health. The actual level of polyphenols in your olive oil is dependent on several factors. The two main contributors are olive variety and ripeness at harvest. Varieties like Arbequina and Sevillano tend to be low, while varieties like Koroneiki, Coratina and Picual tend to be higher. In all varieties, the polyphenols in the olive fruit increase steadily as the fruit matures and moves toward color change, but they immediately drop off once the fruit changes color and ripens. The effort to increase polyphenols is pushing harvest dates earlier to capture fruit before the drop off in polyphenol levels.

by Lara Knackstedt
To find high polyphenol olive oil you should follow the same tips I have suggested for buying extra virgin olive oillocal, seals of authenticity, harvest date and so on. While the industry buzzes with polyphenol talk, very few labels actually include this information. Since polyphenols are strongly correlated to oil intensity the strength of the bitterness and pungencyit is possible to roughly correlate mild oils with lower numbers, medium with average numbers and robust oils with higher numbers. A low number might be 80 mg/kg and a very high number could be over 600 mg/kg. The average is around 180 mg/kg. You can also look for oil made from the higher polyphenol varieties. Please note that numbers quoted by producers on websites and bottles are taken near the time of bottling, providing more of a snapshot of where the oil started out. Remember, fresh, fresh, fresh! The polyphenols act as natural preservatives in the oilgradually getting depleted as the antioxidants protect the oil. Buying fresh oil and keeping it away from the stresses of heat, light and oxygen will help you preserve the oils polyphenols. As few as 2-4 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil a day have been shown to provide significant benefit. It isnt hard to think of simple and delicious ways to work olive oil into your dietif all else fails, you can follow my lead and drink it straight. You can buy polyphenol supplements that attempt to concentrate the Fountain of Youth into flavorless tablets, or you can enjoy olive oil as a fresh, natural food that brightens the skin and enhances ones diet.

Troubled Waters: The Season of Drought...In Our Bodies

ven the most health-conscience people underestimate the importance of their water intake. We all know we should drink sufficient fluids to stay hydrated and yet we still find it hard to get enough water throughout the day. Most of us already know about the health benefits of water and that it is the cheapest preventative medicine available. With summer upon us and with more outdoor activities happening, its important to stay properly hydrated. So whats stopping us? Here are some obstacles and simple solutions. I dont like the taste of my water: We hear this all the time from our clients. If you are on city water, you can put in a simple filter system in your kitchen to remove the taste of chlorine. If you dont like plain water, you can add fruits or vegetables to a pitcher of water to jazz-up the taste. We do this with lemons, strawberries, orange slicesthere are a lot of options.

ationally and locally, the real estate market is heating up! As this sellers market emerges while mortgage loan interest rates remain low, more homes are being listed for positive reasons. Whether youre preparing a home for selling or for continued enjoyment, home staging ideas are beneficial to employ. A Clean SlateA fresh start for yourself or for presenting your home to buyers is the key place to begin. A thorough cleaning involves the general areas as well as window frame channels, electrical outlet and switch covers (interior and exterior), ceiling fan housing and blades, lamp shades (fabric, glass, metal) and diffusers on hanging lights (bugs and dust collect in open top lighting). Wipe-down walls and vacuum wood ceilings or beams. Touchup paint nicks throughout the house if you are not re-painting. Deep-clean and deodorize carpets, area rugs and window coverings (especially blinds and shades). The details! Every home Ive sold or staged, has all drawers, shelves, closets and storage areas completely cleaned, new drawer liner and shelf paper added and organized. Closet interiors get a fresh coat of paint. Realtors have remarked that clients say: Wow, I could move right in. This step is essential to removing any qualms for the buyer in whether the home will actually be clean when they arrive to move in. This step is terrific for home sellers or home keepersalmost nothing feels better than clean, clear storage areas that are functional. For the home seller, its a great first step to reducing what youll need to pack and move. Kitsch ClearingIf you are selling, buyers want to imagine themselves in the home. Store photographs, memorabilia, collections and personal decorations. For home sellers, this is a great first step in preparing to move. Use mantles and tables as decorative life displays, e.g., place a lamp, a small plant, and a book on an end table. Re-Think FurnishingsIncrease visual floor space by removing one or two pieces of furnitureallow air flow around objects. Make sure the room has a strong focal point and make that inviting and beautiful. If you have a large-scale dining table, use only six matching chairs or use four existing chairs and purchase two chairs of a different style for the table ends. If youre remaining in

To Sell or Not to Sell

your home, analyze whether all existing furniture is necessary. Highlight the flow of your rooms by arranging the furniture to guide buyers from one room to another. Consider creating the focal point as the farthest wall from the doorway then arrange furniture to enhance that area. In the bedroom, the bed is the focal pointmake it beautiful. ColorizeA fresh coat of warm neutral hue (in varying shades) throughout the house will bring a sense of calm. Smaller spaces can take deeper values of color and become richer visually. Neutrals in tans will have undertones of gray, green, rose so shop carefully or get help from a professional decorator. Accessories are the perfect way to add the pizazz a room needs. Colorful throws, pillows, vases, lamp bases and lush green plants in pretty containers add energy. Make sure your rooms have some sparkleclear glass, glossy ceramic pieces, mirrors, shiny metal accessoriesthese work well. If youre selling, change to higher-wattage bulbs in your light fixtures to brighten dark areas like corners (using up-lights) and basements. Set The Scene For an open house showing, lay logs in the fireplace, set the dining room and kitchen tables with dishes, pretty linens and glassware and a centerpiece of fresh fruit or flowers. Create other vignettes throughout the homesuch as a chess game in progressto help buyers envision living there. Replace heavy curtains with sheer ones that let in more light. Turn lights on. Ive toured homes as a buyer and a gray home interior is the most unpleasant feeling. Make your bathrooms feel luxurious by displaying new linens, fresh dispenser hand soap, and a vase of flowers. Of course, your personal toiletries and medications are tucked out of sight and reach. If you have pets, clean bedding frequently and spray an odor remover before each showing. The Grand EntranceWhether your home us humble or majestic, have the yard looking its best. Prior to open houses or scheduled showings, sprinkle the grass thirty minutes early and shower shrubs so everything looks dewy and sparkles in the light. Colorful flowers and well-trimmed plants are essential to first impressions. Repair any problems with walkways and all door entrances. Seasonal door wreaths are a nice touch.

Rogue River Reading Camp Kicks-off First Summer Program

A one-of-a-kind literacy camp for grade 2-5 youngsters is launching its first summer program on the banks of the Rogue near Gold Hill. Camp Director and Founder, Marie Freeman explains, Early intervention for struggling readers is critical to their success. Our Reading Camp melds two of my greatest passions in life: teaching youngsters to read well, and celebrating the wonders of nature. My private gated residence provides a secure park-like environment enhancing outdoor learning across the curriculum. The camp has two indoor classrooms and one covered outdoor classroom, a greenhouse, a chicken coop, a large in-ground pool and extensive lawns & gardens on 15 acres of river-front, all of which are used to enhance our various theme studies. With a maximum of twelve students per week, Marie and her two aides will provide daily individual and small group reading instruction. Weekly themes will include fun lessons in science, nature, reading, writing, and painting. The Camp will also include daily physical movement games & activities designed to enhance overall brain functioning for young readers. Marie will assess each students reading needs prior to their first day of camp. Marie notes: A younger student may need to focus on sight vocabulary, phonemic awareness and phonics while an older student might need to focus on fluency, vocabulary and comprehension. Marie holds California and Oregon teaching credentials in regular and special education, and has over thirty years of teaching experience. She has provided private educational therapy for 8 years for elementary students with a strong emphasis on language processing and reading. Students can enroll in any number of weeks of the 5-week program which begins July 8. For more details see Maries Educational Therapy website at www.mariefreeman.org. See ad this page.

took a music class in college; I thought it would be an easy, blow-off humanities class to fulfill the degree requirement. However, I learned so much and it turned out to be one of the best classes I ever experienced. I learned how instrumental music has been throughout history, it defines generations, challenges social norms, advocates change and helps us to forget, for a few moments, the stress and pressures of daily life. In an effort to guide my children towards enlightenment, I applied what I learned in that Music 101 to what theyre listening to today. With a positive, open mind I purposefully tunedout the energizing, foot tapping, booty shaking beats and I tried to analyze the lyrics without bias. Im delighted to report that I was able to decipher some very deeply philosophical messages I discerned that Justin Bieber is sharing the value of loyalty and monogamy in Boyfriend and how charming and equally annoying terms of endearments can be in Baby, baby, baby. Diddy shares a prodigal son story in Coming Home, encouraging others to learn from his promiscuous, gangsta mistakes and shares that returning to your roots is therapeutic. Rihanna reiterates the importance of always being prepared with UmbrellaElla ella ay ay ay, a valuable message for us here in the Pacific Northwest because, after all there is no bad weather in Oregon, just bad clothing. Miley Cyrus supports patriotism and encourages our kids to Party in the USA as opposed to taking the party overseas and Gangnam Style has ignited international relations or at the very least it taught my 6-year-old how to speak Korean. JT (Editor's note: Justin Timberlake, not James Taylor) teaches our boys to dress with pride and sophistication and to feel good in their Suit and Tie, which helps

Bridge the Gap

divert them away from the slouchy, saggy pants that have made us crazy for far too long. While I'm not sure what popping tags means, I feel pretty confident that Macklemore's Thrift Shop song is about being frugal. LMFAO and Lady Gaga share messages of self confidence, esteem and physical fitness, citing that we are Born This Way and to be proud if you are Sexy and Know It because you Work Out. Hot Chelle Rae suggests we say Whatever to the small stuff, because It Doesnt Matter, a lesson many of us paid a lot of money to learn in college via Richard Carlsons, PhD, Dont Sweat the Small Stuff. Clearly, my amateur analysis is facetious, the point is: attempt to bridge the generation gap between you and your children by understanding the meaning behind their music. This isnt always easy, (as the ridiculous examples prove!), they cant always be as clear as the peace/ antiwar messages that John Lennon or U2 shared. There are also times when its difficult to understand what the motivation behind a song is until we look back on the legacy it created. For example, who knew Girls Just Want to Have Fun and She Bop would inspire a generation of girls (Like myself! Thank you Cyndi!) to take charge of their lives, despite historical oppression and the gender stereotyping that continued to plague our society? Parents, its a good idea to be aware of the social and political messages your children are learning from the radio or their iPod and its also another way for you to understand and connect with them. You may not agree with or approve of what your kids are listening to, but unless you plan to isolate them from the rest of the world they are going to hear it, so use it as an opportunity. Engage them in conversations about what message they think the artist is trying to convey, share your experience on the matter, discuss the present day validity of the issue and find out if they agree with it!

onsumers using "botanicals" to alleviate various conditions should be aware that certain herbs have the potential to cause health or eye problems. While there are an emerging number of studies on the benefits of some herbs, some of them can be as powerful as prescription drugs, and can be harmful if taken in excess. The public seems to have endorsed the notion that herbal equals natural. However, there are ocular considerations for many of these products. For example, there have been reported cases of black cohosh causing clotting in the blood vessels in the back of the eye, an intolerance to contact lenses, and changes in the curvature of the cornea. Other herbs that have been reported, documented, or suspected of causing eye problems are St. John's Wort (appears to enhance ultraviolet damage to the lens of the

eye), ginseng, bilberry extract, kava kava, and an herbal combination of gingko biloba, grapeseed extract, sweet clover and iodine marketed to combat cellulite. On the other hand, there are some herbs that offer benefits to the patient, and present no known harm to the eyes, or may even be helpful. More important, though, is that patients tell their optometrist what botanicals they are taking. About 75% of adult patients using herbals failed to report that usage during standard medication histories. It's vital that the eye care professional be aware of this, especially if the patient is currently being treated for an eye health disease, such as glaucoma. The optometrist can advise of any possible interactions between herbals and prescription medications, but only if he or she knows what else the person is taking.

With Sunny Days Upon Us: Take Care of Your Skin

by Shae Johnson, DO, Asante Physician Partners
ith sunny days upon us, we are reminded of the increasing problems of sun exposure and the increasing incidence of skin cancers. Although simply staying indoors is the best way to avoid the sun, total sun avoidance is nearly impossible. Scheduling activities in the morning and evening can help to avoid the more intense sun exposure. Spending time in the shade can also help, although it is difficult to measure its effectiveness. Clothing, especially hats, can also help, with tighter weaves offering better protection. Sunscreens have become a practical necessity. According to the Archives of Dermatology, sunscreens have been shown to reduce precancerous actinic keratoses and skin cancers such as squamous cell cancers. Other studies have shown routine use of sunscreens may also reduce melanoma risk. Typically, sunscreens provide full UV-B protection for most individuals. Many sunscreens, however, have historically lacked UV-A protection. Newer broad spectrum sunscreens provide full-spectrum protection of both UV-B and UV-A, with ingredients like Avobenzone, Oxybenzone. or Meradimate. The protective effect of sunscreen is usually measured by its sun protection factor (SPF). An SPF 15 product

filters out 93% of UV-B radiation and an SPF 30 product filters out 97%. Certainly there are products with higher SPF ratings, and UV-A protection is better at a higher SPF. Most studies, however, demonstrate application techniques, repeat applications, and early application is fundamental to better protection. Dermatologists recommend sunscreens be applied liberally, up to one ounce to cover the entire body. If continuous exposure is anticipated, sunscreens should be reapplied every couple of hours. Water-resistant varieties ought to be reapplied hourly, as it maintains its SPF level for only 40-80 minutes of water immersion. Sunscreens ought to be applied 15-30 minutes before activity, in order to develop its protective layer. Now that summer is just around the corner, get out and enjoy the weather. Remember, however, to plan your activities and dress appropriately, apply the shielding sunscreens, and seek cover regularly. The minutes spent protecting your skin now can reduce the many hazards associated with melanoma and other skin cancers.

Joyfull Living
by Louise Lavergne
ne of the big themes of the last few months has been coping with change. We experienced a powerful solar eclipse in May and many of us have been pushed into unfamiliar waters. Change is something that we tend to resist. Letting go of the familiar can stir fear and keep us trapped in limiting situations. Courage is the ability to take action when fear of the unknown wants to keep us in the confines of the familiar. I have had the opportunity to embrace change often in my life. Recently, it was not an easy decision to move out of our cozy space, tucked away, but we have moved to 135 S. Oregon Street, a beautiful, bigger space next to the Good Bean. After over 7 years, JoyFull Yoga now has the space to truly be the JoyFull Living Wellness Center, with a wide offering for your health, well-being and enjoyment. JoyFull Yoga offers classes, workshops and retreats as well as JoyFull Yoga Teacher Training. We have expanded our JoyFull Earth retail store, offering more inspirational and holistic lifestyle items for self-care, from herbal tinctures to lotions as well as crystals, art, jewelry (focused on metaphysical properties of gemstones), eco and fair trade gift items, as well as eco-clothing. JoyFull Living coaching is expanding with our online classes and community (www.joyfull-living.com). The addition of our commercial kitchen is giving a home to a few outstanding producers featuring Chef Kristen Lyons

We look forward to bringing community together for special events including, fresh foods, music, my Sound Healing and other inspirational gatherings to name a few. My goal is to continue to offer more tools and support for JoyFull Living for us all to co-create a more JoyFull earth. Retreat weekends will be scheduled, mostly in the fall, winter and spring, to bring more people to Jacksonville and give our Rogue Valley community another place to come together to be inspired on their journey. All this takes a village and our team is growing to make it a reality. Come and meet them at our opening on June 8 as part of Jacksonvilles Taste of Summer event. Well have our Event Coordinator, Marcella Robertson, doing juice tastings, special olive oil tasting with Lara Knackstedt, and Kristen Lyon will be sampling some of her special seasonal offerings.

Soul Matters by Kate Ingram, M.A.

n the Disney Pixar movie Finding Nemo, there is a scene in which Marlin (an anxietyridden Clown Fish) and his friend, Dory, are hanging off the back of a whales tongue (if you havent seen the movie you (a) are not a parent of young children and (b) are just going to have to trust me that this makes perfect sense). They need to let go of the tongue, drop down the whales throat, and be blown out the blow hole (please see my previous disclaimer). Their dialogue goes like this: Dory: It's time to let go! Everything's going to be all right! Marlin: How do you know something bad isnt gonna happen? Dory: I dont! Trust is tricky. Its all very easy to have trust when everything is going swimmingly; its another thing altogether to maintain total trust when youre hanging on by your fingernails. Or fins. Whatever. When I was eight years old my father died very unexpectedly. The fallout from that loss was, in part, a loss of trust in life, which, on some deep, biological level, makes sense: the best offense is a good defense. I had a hard time believing that no matter what happened, I would be okay. I was Marlin: scared of life, of what can happen out there. Ironically, it was the death of my husband in a plane crash many years later that caused me to begin to question my lack of trust. Initially, I went into shutdown, my distrust of life seeminglyand horriblyvindicated. But slowly, over time (and with a lot of work), a marvelous thing began to happen; I began to see that holding on to distrust and fear had not prevented bad things from occurring: it had only served to hinder the wonderful experiences from unfolding fully. One hundred percent of both joy and spiritual growth comes from letting go, and letting go means trusting that no matter what happens, you will be fine. Letting go

be it of fear, old attitudes, a bad relationship, worn-out beliefs, or the need for approvalfrees you. It opens you to greater possibilities. Trust propels you out of the whales throat. Now, trusting in life doesnt mean you wont suffer or be afraid; it simply means that despite these things, you know that you will be okay, because the trust is not in what might or might not happen: the trust is that you are okay whatever happens. There's an ocean of experiences out there; they won't all be fun, or easyin fact, some of them will be just plain dreadful. But through it all, you will be okay, because the okayness is inside of you. Your True Self (or God, or Spirit, or Consciousness) is there through it all. This Self was never born, and it will never die. Nothing can harm it. It is the constant that is with you and for you: it is you. Of course, you do have a choice: you can trust and let go, or you can hang on in fear. It may not feel like a choice, but it is. Just remember this: whether you live in fear or live in trust, life will go on. Given this reality, the preferable course of action seems rather obvious. Spoiler alert: Marlin does decide to let go and is blown sky-high out of the whale, coming down exactly where he needs to be. In the process, he has an incredible adventure, finds strengths he didn't know he had, makes new friends, faces his fears, has fun and finds the treasure he is seeking. Second spoiler alert: So did I. If youre holding onto something for dear life, it's probably time to take a breath... and let go. Everything really is going to be all right.

Tell Me Your Story: Getting Started

hether you decide to write your own life story, the story of a loved one, or hire someone to help you, the process of a life review is therapeutic and life-enhancing. Getting started seems to be the hardest step for most of us. For this reason, a workshop setting can be beneficial when you have a set time and place to meet regularly. In each session we begin with memory exercises to assist with the writing process. Recalling stories and associating emotions, sights, sounds and feelings to that moment are key to effective memoir writing. I suggest you also do writing exercises at home to help with memory recall. To get started at home, purchase a bound notebook of lined paper and title each blank page at the top with topics you want to write about. Here are a few suggestions: Childhood games, friends, pets Early learning, school, jobs Family traditions I experienced as a child Things my parents/grandparents taught me Things Ive learned from my children Things Im most grateful for What would I most like to be remembered for Keep your notebook handy where you can look at the topics regularly and jot down thoughts on specific subjects as they come to mind. Youll be surprised how this simple exercise will get your brain focusing on these thoughts and ideas will begin to flow. Samples of childhood stories shared in a recent workshop: We were living in a small farm town in the Midwest when my mother walked me and my older sister the two miles to our first day of school. Mother was in a hurry to drop us off and return home to her daily chores. Once wed arrived she told us to go inside the schoolhouse and said goodbye. She turned around and went directly home. What she didnt realize was that we were following right behind her. Once we arrived back home and she noticed wed followed her all the way, she wasnt very happy about having to turn right around and walk us back to school. It was an innocent act on our part; we were young girls who didnt want to leave their mother. Before all of the modern-day drugs and pharmaceuticals became available, we used Milk of Magnesia for all sorts of ailmentswe rubbed it on our skin to cure rashes, acne and insect bites, we drank it to soothe stomach aches and believed it could cure just about anything. In the warmer months during my childhood school days we would take off down to the swimming hole for lunch time. We must have had a longer lunch break in

those days because we always had time to jump in for a swim and quickly put our clothes back on and run back to school for the rest of the afternoon. I was one of the youngest in the group and recall trying to run faster to keep up with older kids. This was one activity I remember as being the best and simplest of times. As children, we worked right alongside our parents in the fields. We didnt expect to be paid for what we didour efforts were contributing to the family responsibilities as a whole and not focused on how it would benefit us individually. Occasionally we received a special treat when papa would buy us an ice cream cone or candy bar from the drugstore when we went into townbut we knew it would be an occasional treat and not something we could expect often as money was tight. When I joined the military and went overseas during World War II, I sent my income home each month to my parents. We didnt take things for granted back then, working together as a family was the norm. When family members read your stories, it is important for them to get a sense of what life was like during that time. Sharing everyday events and how you felt about them, the type of food you ate, music you listened to, recreational activities, etc. can all be included in your experiences.

the best care for your best friend

Paws for Thought by Dr. Tami Rogers

summer is fast approaching... and I LOVE it! I love seeing the world awaken from its deep winter slumber. I love the colors. I love the freshness. I love the warm days and cool nights. I love lambs, kittens, and calves! I love it all! Well okay, that might not be totally correct as I am not the biggest fan of blood sucking parasites! Like ticks, like fleas, like mosquitoes. Yuck! As the sun spends more time out from behind the clouds, the number of parasites increases dramatically and you and your pets suffer the consequences! Ticks are prevalent in this area and harbor many diseases that are transmissible to humans and pets alike. As with many other things, a little bit of knowledge is the biggest key to prevention! Ticks find their hosts by detecting the breath and body odor of animals. They can also sense body heat, moisture, vibrations, and shadows! They lay in wait for a host along wellused paths where they rest on tips of grasses and shrubs. When a prospective host brushes by, the tick quickly climbs aboard and begins its search for a feeding site. Once a feeding site is located, the tick will grasp the skin and cut through the surface to insert its feeding tube. They secrete saliva with anesthetic properties to go unnoticed by the host during feeding which can take several days. It is during feeding that blood-borne infections will be transmitted both to and from the tick. After feeding, the tick will drop off to prepare for its next life stage. At its next feeding, any diseases acquired during feeding can be transmitted to a new host. There are many different blood-borne pathogens that are transmitted by ticks across the United States. Those of greatest concern in our specific area are Lymes disease and 364D Rickettsiosis. For those who travel to eastern Oregon, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever and Tularemia should also be of concern. For more

Tick tock, Tick tock...

information about each of these I recommend visiting the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website. Common clinical signs of all of these pathogens for humans include fever, chills, muscle aches, fatigue, headaches, and a rash. In animals, we commonly see lethargy, unexplained fever, lameness, and loss of appetite. Clinical signs will generally appear 1-2 weeks after exposure to an infected tick. If you or your pet are affected in this manner after receiving a bite from a tick, I recommend seeking medical attention immediately. Thankfully, when detected early, each of these conditions can be treated but again, prevention is the key. Your best defense against ticks is to reduce exposure both for yourself and your pets. When outdoors, do your best to stay out of heavilywooded areas with tall grasses and stay on designated trails when hiking. All two legged creatures should wear protective clothing and consider a deet containing insect repellent. For four legged creatures, there are multiple tick repelling topical paracitacides that are safe for you and your pet. Our favorites here at Jacksonville Veterinary Hospital are Vectra and Frontline for dogs and Revolution for cats. Once returning from a wooded area, check yourself, your pet, and others for ticks and remove them promptly. They like soft-skinned areas in humans and pets so pay particular attention to arm pits, ears, and the groin. Sources say that disease transmission can take 24-48 hours so quick removal is critical. By arming yourself with knowledge, you and your pets can easily enjoy the beautiful weather and the wonderful outdoor adventures the Rogue Valley has to offer. Apply the appropriate tick preventative on a monthly basis to protect your pet, and you, from tick exposure. As always, if you have specific questions stop by our office or call your veterinarian directly. Dr. Rogers can be reached at the Jacksonville Veterinary Hospital at 541-899-1081 or jvhospital@qwestoffice.net. See ad this page.

To us, our patients are like family. With over 25 years of experience, weve seen families through generations of best friends.

The Pet Food Dilemma

lot of confusion and conflicting information exists out there about dog and cat diets. (Actually, the same is true for human diets, with different experts singing the praises of completely different regimens.) So who do you believe, and how do you decide what to feed your pet? That depends not only on whose advice you trust, but also on the way you make decisions for your pet, as well as your own health. For example, lets say your cat has a urinary tract problem, and your neighborhood vet recommends a prescription diet. When you go to your local pet store, however, the store owner tells you that the vets prescribed diet is poor quality, and recommends a different diet altogether. What do you do? Veterinarians, like their MD counterparts, receive very little nutrition training in professional school. On the other hand, when I was in vet school, I remember the frequent dinners and mixers that were sponsored by various large pet food companies. Its really no different from the way MDs are lobbied by pharmaceutical companies. When I started studying animal nutrition years later, I discovered that much of what I was fed about dog and cat diets has turned out to be completely untrue. This is not to suggest that a pet store employee can take the place of a good veterinarian; however, most people I know who own or work in smaller, independently-owned pet stores know considerably more about commercial pet diets than your local vet does. Take, for example, Hills Prescription C/D, a dry cat food that many vets would prescribe for a cat with bladder problems. The first three ingredients are brewers rice, corn gluten meal and chicken byproduct meal. Seriously? Do those sound like healthy and appropriate things to

by Dr. Jeff Judkins, Animalkind Veterinary Clinic

feed a cat? The first two ingredients are highly-processed carbohydrates that have a very high glycemic indexmeaning they turn to sugar in the body very rapidly. Persistently elevated levels of sugar in the bloodstream leads to a condition called insulin resistance. This is the same problem in humans that leads to Type 2 diabetes, and also creates a pattern of chronic systemic inflammation in the body. Its ironic to think that this state of long-standing inflammation from high carbohydrate diets, such as the C/D diet, could be the underlying factor in the cats bladder problem in the first place. And chicken by-product meal? Not something you would want to feed a beloved family member, I guarantee you. Compare that to Orijen cat kibble, which has free-range boneless chicken, chicken meal and chicken liver as the first three ingredients. Quite a difference. Nutrition is the one of the most fundamental aspects of health for animals and humans alike. I find that most of the cases of chronic, long-standing health issues in both dogs and cats have a significant dietary component. I cant tell you how many animals I've treated in the last 15 years that had severe health problemsdiabetes, skin allergies, arthritis... you name it completely resolve by switching to a more biologically species-appropriate diet. And by all means, do educate yourself. I recommend the book Foods Pets Die For by Ann Martin for a startling look into the pet food industry. Another great resource is Dr. Karen Beckers website, http://healthypets.mercola.com/sites/ healthypets/dr-karen-becker.aspx where you can find extensive information on the most up to date pet nutrition topics. Dr. Judkins can be reached at Animalkind Holistic Veterinary Clinic in Jacksonville at 541-702-2288 or drj@animalkindvet.com. See ad this page.

o say that the folks at Sanctuary One are committed to caring for the earth is a bit of an understatement. On any given afternoon, a stroll around the property reveals stewardship at every level: a corps of sun-hatted volunteers lovingly tending to permaculture-inspired gardens; interns diligently adding vegetable scraps, manure and other organics to compost piles, working to create healthy usable soil from materials that would otherwise be turned into waste; groups of visiting school kids enjoying up-close encounters with rescued pets and farm animals. A cistern catches rainwater for use in the garden, while a drip irrigation system throughout the property conserves as much water as possible. The streetside co-mingle recycling bin is filled with cans, glass jars and empty cereal boxes, while two newly-installed 30-gallon tubs contain itemsfrom baling twine to plastic feed bagsslated for the Plastic Roundup in the fall. And starting this month, volunteers are taking Sanctuary Ones sustainability efforts to the next level by creating homemade cleaning products for use at the farm. From herbal disinfectant to laundry powder to sink and tile cleanser, the possibilities for DIYing safe, highly-effective cleaners are practically endless. And the benefits are myriad: its yet another hands-on opportunity at Sanctuary One, and a great way for staff,

interns and volunteers to take ownership of one more important aspect of farm duties. Because all of the ingredients can be purchased in bulk, fewer trips to the store are required. And the cost? A fraction of what youd pay for a comparable product at the supermarket. Of course, special consideration is required when using certain natural ingredients in proximity to animals. Tea tree and some cedar essential oils, for example, says Dr. Jeff Judkins of Animalkind Veterinary Clinic, are toxic to cats and should always be avoided. As for the efficacy of natural cleaning products in an animal boarding facility? The goal is not to sterilize (it cant be done), but to sanitize, says Judkins. Lemon balm and lavender oil have antiviral and antibacterial properties and can be used just as effectively as conventional disinfectants. The concept of homemade cleaning products is nothing new. Folks have been making their own cleaning supplies since, well, the beginning of dirt. As we become increasingly conscious of what goes into our bodies, as well as the impact we have on the planet, its good to know weve got options. Becky Owston is a volunteer at Sanctuary One and is a 2012 graduate of the Jackson County Master Recyclers program.

Guilt-Free Summer Fun Starts with Getting Organized!

by Christin Sherbourne, Efficiency by Design
Summer is upon us, and the call of BBQs, Britt concerts, family vacations and home projects are quickly filling up our calendar. It can be a challenge to fit it all in. As a professional organizer, the tools that I use to stay sane and organized, is to utilize time management. Time management is an important component to getting organized and staying organized. As Wikipedia states, it is the act or process of planning and exercising conscious control over the amount of time spent on specific activities, especially to increase effectiveness, efficiency, or productivity. I have coached various clients on the value of time management. A key is to schedule your projects into your calendar just as you would an appointment or an event. Time will slip away if you wait for spare time to complete it. I also suggest scheduling a chore each day to keep on top of your To Do list. For example, dust on Monday, trash on Tuesday, vacuum on Wednesday and so on! The joy of time management is, that when the chores are done, the fun stuff is that much more fun! So after you schedule that pesky home project and cross it off your list, go ahead and truly enjoy that concert, BBQ, vacation or other family-fun event!

Speaking of Antiquing
with Margaret Barnes, Pickety Place Antiques
uilts arent just for cozy anymore. Quilts are an art form, a picture drawing with fabric. Quilts can depict views out kitchen windows, colorful flower gardens, landscapes, animals, and whatever one can imagine. In many towns, even ours, there is a quilt shop like Country Quilts that houses a variety of quality fabrics, interesting pattern books, and tools of the craft. You can take classes for tips on how to use a rotary cutter to how to sew a binding. Quilt making is a big business these days, but quilt making and patchwork have been popular pastimes in the United States since the 1700s. Primarily, quilts were functional blankets for warmth when needed. Fabric was scarce so women made do with what they had. Old clothing and feed sacks became a large part of a typical quilt. Women traded their fabrics with friends and neighbors and combined pieces in colorful arrangements and pretty patterns that have become a heritage of sorts. Embellishments were added in the form of embroidery, stitches typical of the Crazy Quilts. Truly historic quilts have found their way into museum and private collections. Quilts from past centuries are being sought for their charm, beauty, and uniqueness. You might have a fragile quilt that a grandmother or aunt made that has become a family heirloom. If you keep it in a trunk, chest, or closet, be sure you take it out once in a while to air it out. Wrap it in cotton, linen or acid-free paper, never plastic. Fold it differently each

time you put it away so the fabric doesnt deteriorate at fold lines. Instead of folding in the usual halves and quarters, bring the corners to the center to form a diamond shape, then fold the bottom and top to meet in the middle and halve again. If you want to display a quilt on a rack, employ the same tactic of folding it differently to alleviate stress to the folds. Hanging a quilt on a wall is a bold statement, be it a new quilt or an old one. Do not use nails or pins through the fabric as this will cause much damage. Simply sew or tack a sleeve or loops for a hanging dowel or cord. Clamping devices work very well also. Collectors of quilts look at the construction, motif, and style. Most desirable is the all hand-made quilt. Piecing is hand-stitched with small stitches, and quilted typically 8-11 stitches per inch. Hundreds of books and many internet sites are available for pattern and fabric identification. Many fabrics have been reproduced from the Civil War-era to the Depression-era so be careful you are not finding an old pattern made up in new old fabrics. These might be obvious by the weave and texture. Old homespun muslins were a much thicker and looser weave than the muslin we have now. Muslins were typically bleached as opposed to the unbleached that are widely used today. At Pickety Place, we have quilts and quilt tops for you to add to your collections and invite you to stop by and get acquainted. See ad this page.

Trail Talk

by Tony Hess and Bob Budesa

ynthia Orlando recently wrote about Nature-deficit-disorder, (NDD). Richard Louv, co-founder of the Children & Nature Network, coined the term eight years ago to describe the negative consequences of children moving indoors and away from physical contact with the natural world. A Nature Conservancy poll two years ago found that children who have had a meaningful experience in nature are more likely to prefer spending time outdoors and express concern about environmental issues. According to a Children & Nature Network study, time spent outdoors in nature enhances a childs academic achievement and improves test scores. Cynthia recommends going to local parks, gardens, and forests for good places to grow family bonds and suggests talking about how things are interconnected in a forested setting, comparing bird calls, looking for mushrooms or taking a hike to a nearby pond or alongside a stream. All of these activities can be done in or very close to Jacksonville in the urban Woodlands trail system or in the newlycreated Forest Park. The Forest Park entrance is easily accessed one mile west of the city limits along Reservoir Road, a well-maintained county road. Right now with warmer weather, consider a hike on the shady Zigler Trail in the Woodlands from the Britt Gardens trailhead for three-fourths of a mile on a level trail.

ATA Applegate Valley Day Hike & More

Cantrall Buckley Park will host the 2nd annual Applegate Valley Day on Saturday, June 22nd from 10:00am to 7:00pm. (See article on page 10.) The Applegate Trails Association volunteers will be there with our canopy, table, maps, brochures and friendly attitudes to share our knowledge of hiking trails in the valley. We will be leading scheduled groups on a relatively short hike right next to the Applegate River on a trail recently reconditioned by ATA volunteers. Interested self-guided hikers may visit the ATA booth for maps and directions and then easily hike the trail on your own. This gentle hike is rated easy and is suitable for the whole family. Should timing and funding cooperate, there may be a longer loop hike available with the renovation of another section of trail in the park. Together, both sections of trail fairly represent the need for trail maintenance and the results of volunteerism helped by your donations. So come on out to the beautiful Applegate Valley during Applegate Valley Day to enjoy some sunshine and fun. The sky will be filled with delightful color with pilots practicing for the week-long Rat Race Paragliding Competition starting on Sunday. (See article on page 10.) There will be lots of vendors, informational booths and activities at the park. Another event in the valley is a Geocache from 11:00am to 6:00pm at Outpost Farm and Garden, 181 Upper Applegate Road (541899-1113). You might visit a winery to round out your day. Three wineries near RuchFiasco, Longsword and Valley View have excellent locations to watch the paragliders. For more information about Applegate Valley Day, please visit www. applegatevalleydays.org, for Rogue Valley Paragliding Association, www.rvhpa.org and for Applegate Trails Association, www.applegatetrails.org. Even though the hike is simply out and back, the trail is always different on the return. Contact David Calahan at 541-899-1226 or david@applegatetrails.org for more information.

Dale Grover OHarra, 95, passed away peacefully surrounded by family on April 17, 2013 at Providence Medford Medical Center. He was born October 8, 1917 in Gering, Nebraska and traveled as a small boy with his family, settling in Ashland, Oregon. He graduated from Ashland High School in 1936. A celebration of life was held at the US Hotel Ballroom in Jacksonville on April 27, 2013. Interment was at the Mountain View Cemetery in Ashland. He worked in the Ashland area as a car mechanic and later as a carpenter. He also worked at Boeing in Seattle, Washington. In January, 1943, he joined the Army Air Corps as a Private 1st Class, serving in WW II in the European Theatre based out of Venosa, Italy. He flew 35 missions as a Flight Engineer in a B-24, the Liberator. He served honorably for two years, nine months and 11 days, mustering out of the military with a rank of Tech Sergeant in 1945. On February 14, 1942, he married his beloved Olive Carrie Hill in Seattle. They were happily married for 66 years. She preceded him in death in 2008. In 1954, while employed at Bellevue Lumber Company in Ashland, he was approached to see if he had an interest in buying a lumber company in Jacksonville, Oregon. He subsequently bought the Jacksonville Lumber Company and

JacksonvilleReview.com
as of this spring, had owned it for 59 years. Until recently, he went to work on a daily basis and remained active in daily operations. Many deep, lasting friendships have developed over the years with staff, customers, suppliers and the community. He was a member of the Jacksonville Chamber of Commerce and received the Golden Award for Outstanding Community Support. In 1995, with his wife Olive, he became a Disciple of the Lord through intensive Bible studies. He was a member of the United Methodist Church of Medford, Oregon. Dale was the proud owner of a 1929 Model A and a member of the Rogue Valley Model A Club. Dale was a very gentle, kind man who loved his family and his many friends. He always thought the best of whomever he met. He loved Trail Blazer basketball, Mariner and Giants baseball and 49ers football. He also enjoyed playing card games and dominoes. Survivors include son Dale, and his wife, Marilyn, of Belmont, California; daughter, Shannon Pearce, and her husband, Gary of Portland, Oregon; and two granddaughters, Erin and Lindsey Pearce, of Seattle. He is also survived by a brother, Robert OHarra of Phoenix, Oregon and numerous nieces, nephews and cousins. He will be greatly missed by all of his many loved ones and friends, but will always remain alive in their hearts. Shannon Pearce asked the Review to note that the family plans to continue operating the Jacksonville Lumber Company as-is.
