SEASIDE — Cannon
Beach resident Patrick No-
field was appointed to the
Seaside School Board Tues-
day night.
Nofield, co-owner and
president of Escape Lodg-
ing, will fill the vacancy
created by Nancy Hauger,
who resigned from the
board last month. A board
member for 11 years,
Hauger plans to move to
Seattle to be closer to her
grandchildren.
Her term ends June 30.
Nofield has served on
several local and state
boards, including the Ore-
gon Tourism Commission,
where he served as chair-
man. He also has been in-
volved in the effort to es-

tablish a charter school in
Cannon Beach.
In other business Tues-
day night, the school board
heard a report from Dan
Gaffney on Clatsop Coun-
ty’s first Early Childhood
Health and Education Clin-
ic. Gaffney, who retired
as principal from Seaside
Heights Elementary School
last year, is involved in
the county’s campaign to
prepare children from pre-
school through third grade
for school.
Gaffney said the clinic,
held last May at the county
fairgrounds and at the Sea-
side Civic and Convention
Center, examined 134 chil-
dren. Screenings included
height and weight, blood
pressure and temperature,
developmental skills, vi-
sion, hearing, speech, den-

tal, behavior, nutrition and
immunizations.
Follow-up exams or re-
screenings were suggested
for:
• medical exam: 14 per-
cent of the children
• hearing: 22 percent
• speech: 25 percent
• vision: 59 percent.
Gaffney said the vision

The Cap’n Oscar, a 69-foot
steel fishing boat owned
by the Port of Astoria and
moored at North Tongue
Point, sank Tuesday. Per-
mit and Project Manager
Robert Evert said that at
low tide, the vessel be-
came snagged on the pier,
and at high tide, it was
pushed down and even-
tually flooded. The vessel
still floats, said Evert, and
the Port plans to drain,
float and take it up on land.

Nemlowill hosts coffee hour Thursday
Astoria City Councilor Zetty Nem-
lowill will host a coffee hour Thursday
morning to get feedback from constit-
uents.
The event will run from 8 a.m. to
9 a.m. at the Blue Scorcher Bakery &
Cafe at 1493 Duane St.
“I am eager to hear people’s ideas
and answer any questions, especially
with the council’s annual goal-setting
coming up on Friday,” Nemlowill said
in a statement.
The new councilor was elected
in November to represent Ward I,
which covers the west side of down-
town, Uniontown and the Port of
Astoria. She took office earlier this
month.

Cohort 3 of the Lower Co-
lumbia Ford Institute Leader-
ship Program and the Astoria
Parks and Recreation Depart-
ment announce the grand open-
ing of the Teen Center at the
Astoria Recreation Center, 1555
W. Marine Drive from 5:30 to 7
p.m. Friday.
The teen center remodel at
the recreation center’s new loca-
tion was completed through the
Ford Family Institute’s Leader-
ship Program, which focuses on
achieving community vitality by
teaching local citizens skills to
be motivated community lead-
ers and develop productive col-
laborations with organizations
from their communities. Partic-
ipants in the program include
students from area high schools,
retired citizens, city and county
employees, and other local com-
munity members.
Revitalizing the teen center
was the community project se-
lected by this year’s Leadership
Program members because of
activities and equipment teens
would like to see available in
a community teen center. The
teen center project was designed
around the responses of local
teens.
The newly designed and
equipped teen center includes
foosball, air hockey, video game
consoles, an outdoor basketball
court, and a computer for local
teens to come and enjoy during
their free time.
Funding to decorate the teen
center and purchase equipment
was provided by a grant from
the Ford Family Foundation, as
well as proceeds from a com-
munity fundraising effort, and
generous donations from local
community members.
As part of the Astoria Recre-
ation Center, the teen center will
be supervised and maintained by
Astoria Parks and Recreation.

can I do?
This is a common
finding on many
patients. The reasons can be
from misaligned teeth, harmful
habits or excess grinding and
bite forces. The latter is a very
common problem that needs to
be addressed. Orthodontic
correction and nighttime bite
guards are good choices to
help prevent further wear.

All TV’s sold today are required
by the FCC to work with the old
“analog” signal, as well as with the new digital
High Definition signal. The reason your new
HDTV doesn’t look as good on every channel is
that not every channel is currently available is
broadcast in HDTV. Presently, there is limited
availability of channels broadcast in High
Definition, which means most of the channels
are still the old analog signal. Contact your
cable or satellite provider to see how you can
upgrade your service to include High Definition
television for your HDTV
