Farewell set for fathers Corklin, Pugliese
on behalf of the arts in Northern Curry County
On Sunday, April 25 a farewell reception will be held for Father
Stanley Corklin and Father Richard Pugliese at St. Christopher's
Episcopal Church from 3 to 5 p.m. These two men came to the
Oregon Coast to retire six years ago but Father Corklin answered a
call to become Priest-in-Charge of the Port Orford congregation. He
has been instrumental in attaining many improvements and upgrades
at this active church.
Both men have been very involved in the community and have
given many hours to the Friends of Cape Blanco and the Point Orford
Heritage Society as well as all the various church activities. They will
be leaving the area to return to Vermont to be near family and actually
retire.
All members of the community are invited to attend the reception
and wish them well as they leave Port Orford. St. Christopher’s is
located on 9th Street off of Hwy. 101 behind the Downtown Fun
Zone. For more information, call 332-0947.

Come walk a labyrinth and help ease hunger in our local communi-
ties.
On Saturday, May 1, help the Langlois and Port Orford Libraries
once again to celebrate World Labyrinth Day. The libraries are recog-
nizing this day by inviting everyone to bring food and other non-per-
ishable staples to the American Legion Hall. These items will be
shared between the Langlois Food Cupboard and The Common Good.
We’ll build a temporary labyrinth with your donated items, so please
join us and walk the path to help relieve hunger in our local neighbor-
hoods.
Kids and adults will enjoy making free finger labyrinths to take
home. We’ll provide the pattern of an ancient classical labyrinth; you
personalize it with your own unique finishing touches (all materials
provided).
Please bring canned goods (not expired), shelf staples (beans, rice),
paper products (toilet paper, tissue, paper towels), personal care items
(even the freebies from hotels) and/or pet food. Each contribution will
literally build the labyrinth and pave the way to ease hunger here.
Cash donations can be mailed or dropped off at either of the
libraries before April 26. Checks should be made payable to Langlois
Public Library and we’ll do the shopping. You will also find collec-
tion boxes in both libraries during April.

Catherine Tucker
Scoutmaster’s corner
By Scott Halse
For the Port Orford News
After our flag ceremony and the
Pledge of Allegiance, we talked
about our community service proj-
ect on Sunday April 25th. We
were asked to help with the chili
cook-off and BBQ being held at
the community service building.
We are looking forward to helping
out, and can't wait to see you
there.
We worked on some activities
in preparation for our camporee
on May 14th-16th. We tied some
knots and lashings, and we prac-
ticed our first aid skills. The scouts
were shown how to tie a splint on
a broken arm. We did some drills
and the scouts pretended to come
up on another hurt scout and
administer first aid. We ran
through the drill several times and
the scouts were taught the correct
way to call for help and adminis-
ter first aid.
We are still working on our
Physical Fitness Merit Badge. The
scouts are improving every week.
Three weeks to go to get their
merit badge.
Our candy and meat stick sale
has come to an end and the scouts
ended up with a total of $560 in
sales. They did a great job and I
would like to thank the communi-
ty for supporting our efforts. As a
troop we receive 25% of the sales,
and the scouts earned some prizes
awarded by the Boy Scout Area
Council.
We are still accepting cans and
bottles for our cans for camp bot-
tle drive. Call 541-332-9104 for
pick-up.
We closed the meeting with
Jovani Heard playing reveille on
the scout bugle. Scout meetings
are on Monday nights at 6:30pm
at the American Legion Building.
Come on down and have some
fun with us.
P.O. Rotary’s Community
Garden is near completion
The Rotary Community
Garden is nearing completion.
The land has been cleared, the
fencing is ready to be put in
place.
If everything goes according to
plan, gardeners will be able to
sign up for plots beginning April
29. In the next several days, the
lumber will be milled for the
raised beds, the fence will go up,
the individual raised beds will be
constructed, water lines will be
put in, and the soil and compost
will be added, said Rotary First
Harvest Chairman Bill McArdle.
“Watch for announcements in
community papers and on bul-
letin boards for the date and place
to signup for the plots.”
