ments are, in fact, one of the drawing
points that helps maintain Silverton as a
magnet for many visitors annually.
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.
Nuances in the touch-up are many,
Vince explained, right down to the stroke

of the original artist who painted the mu-
ral: if the artist was left handed, for ex-
ample, the touch-up stroke has to be exe-
cuted left-handedly as well.
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.

the officers who work in
their town.
“Getting to know your
neighbors is very impor-
tant in respect to safety
awareness. 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.

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.

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 line of volunteers or finances. Any-
one wishing to chip in should contact:

hood Watch is a lifestyle
and we’re all involved.”
“All involved” points to
adults and children alike
and National Night Out in-
cludes both groups.
“Kids are always the
most fun and enjoyable.
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.

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.”
