Meanwhile, a number of Silverto- nians, such as Vince, Norm English, and Jim Squires make it their intention to en- sure those artistic gems remain vivid and intact. Vince and Norm both sat in during a Creekside Chat at Silver Creek Coffee House on Wednesday, July 19, to discuss the murals and efforts overseeing their upkeep. A couple hundred yards west on Wa- ter Street, Tonya Smithburg and Kali Dirks were busy working on one of Sil- verton’s oldest murals, Mammoth, which along with The Oregon Trail on the west side of Bethany Market is among the old- est murals within the society’s keep – 1992. “Tonya has been touching up murals for five or six years now; she’s quite a tal- ented artist,” Norm said on a walk down to the site. “Kali has been helping her for about a year and is learning quite a bit from her.” Vince added: “She’s (Tonya) very ex- acting about what she does; a perfection- ist – We’re blessed to have her. “Kali started off last year working with her and has gotten better as we go along,” he added.

What makes Silverton’s murals stand out — and why like Chemainus they have become points of interest and a draw by themselves — is the maintenance. “Silverton’s murals have a mainte- nance plan; that’s why they look so good,” Vince said, juxtaposing them to other murals that may after a half decade or so “look like something the cat drug in.” He noted that maintenance begins the day after the artist puts down the brush, and involves inspections, cleaning, and touching up. Norm stressed the latter re- quires a tight window during summer weather days, and within that window the days cannot be too warm. Upkeep costs the society between Night Continued from Page 1A MT.

Neighbors are a great resource and have a vital interest in keeping their neighborhoods safe. Getting to know the offi- cers who work in their town is essential as it eliminates any fear chil- dren may have in regards to officers and it allows people to see officers as both their neighbors and the people who protect and serve.” For residents of Scotts Mills and the surrounding area, National Night Out takes on a special mean- ing. “This is an important night for us,” Scotts Mills Neighborhood Watch & Citizen Patrol President Raleen Hockenberry said. “We’ve had an active neighborhood watch and patrol for over 50 years and our relationship with the Marion County Sher- iff’s Office goes back to 1984. Our program ex- tends into the rural areas as far as 10 miles; it’s not just a block or two in town. According to the Sheriff’s Office, we have the most active watch in the valley. “I try to instill in our Saving Continued from Page 1A McDade was one of four visitors at the recrea- tion area who helped res- cue the boy after he was swept down river from the upper pool, sub- merged through the rap- ids and into the lower pool. He slipped in while standing with his father and siblings near the wa- ter’s edge, according to Marion County Sheriff’s Office. Kelda Klukis, of Salem, had just set up chairs for her boyfriend and three children when she saw McDade emerge from the water with the boy in his arms. “There was no move- ment or reflexes from him, even when Jason was running over rocky ter- rain with him,” Klukis said. “He was lifeless.” Klukis, a certified nursing assistant for 17 years, said the boy had “the look” of death. Despite the signs, Klu- kis ran toward the boy while still holding her 8- month-old baby. Maryela Lozano, a registered nurse, had already started CPR. Klukis handed her baby to someone in the growing crowd. The boy wasn’t breath- ing. He had no pulse. His mother screamed in the background and family members cried as Klukis did chest compres- sions and Lozano deliv- ered mouth-to-mouth for five minutes until the boy finally took a breath. “When everybody else $10k and $12k annually. There are also a number of volunteer tasks involved; Vince cited as an exam- ple Robert Case, who puts flags up on the Four Freedoms, the 9/11and the Veterans murals and assists with washing and scaffolding tasks. Some value delivered from mural-up- keep efforts is obvious at sight. Other value, such as how that appeal is inviting to visitors or how it enriches city sur- roundings, may actually become more vivid via juxtaposition; drive around Sil- verton a bit, then take a cruise down Lan- caster Drive in Salem – you’ll get the pic- ture. The society always welcomes help in the line of volunteers or finances. Any- one wishing to chip in should contact: Vince at 503-873-6572; Silverton Mural Society, P.O.

They just have that great outlook on life that all is good and exciting. You never get tired of that,” Carriger said. Wetzel added that the police department hands out sticker badges and are always talking with the children who come out. “This once again cre- ates a sense of comfort and familiarity if they meet us in their day-to- day lives,” she said. “Plus, the fire department comes out with their big trucks, which is very ex- citing for the children. That and McGruff the crime dog.” Next chat What: Creekside Chat Where: Silver Creek Coffee House, 111 Water St., Silverton When: 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 2 (First and third Wednesdays) Questions and information: Contact Justin Much, jmuch@StatesmanJournal.com; cell 503-508-8157; or follow at twitter.com/justinmuch Sue Roessler announced that Ben Rue will be returning again for a fund- raising concert supporting Silverton’s After School Activities Program.

JUSTIN MUCH | STAYTON MAIL Stayton Police K9 intern Dallas was a popular National Night Out feature at Westown Park. is in a state of shock, it’s my time to focus,” Klukis said. “For him not to sur- vive was not an option.” Color returned to his face as he coughed water onto the gravel and cried. Klukis pulled the boy’s mother close, so she could see and feel her son’s breathing. “As a mother, I understand, so I wanted her to see that her son was going to be okay,” she said. Klukis’ children were watching the rescue take place, which was the first time her kids watched her use CPR to save a life. “It’s one thing for me to come home from work and say ‘I used CPR.’ but it’s another thing to see a four-year-old who lost his life and us be able to get it back for him,” Klukis said. Paramedics arrived shortly after and trans- ported him to Santiam Hospital in Stayton. He is expected to make a full re- covery. The boy has not been identified by the Marion County Sheriff’s Office and his family declined to speak publicly about the incident. Klukis said she hopes people learn about the im- portance of safety in the outdoors, especially in water recreation areas. The boy was not wearing a life vest at the time of the incident. “It was an amazing feeling to see him breathe again,” Klukis said, “but it’s important for people to realize how important life jackets are because keeping family safe is the number one priority.” P.O.
