Truly a Seaside Landmark 27 Broadway • Seaside, OR • 503-738-5515 2nd & Hemlock • Cannon Beach, OR • 503-436-2029 They lived in the back of the store for seven years. While Jean rented rooms in the hotel and operated the gift shop, Bud worked two jobs: selling cars at a local Ford dealership and selling furnaces for an oil distributor. A few years after they opened the gift shop, the Ter Hars added clothing to their inventory, and soon they became a clothing store. TER HAR’S is a clothing store in Seaside and Cannon Beach. But more than that, Ter Har’s is a family affair, and it has been for over 65 years. As the Ter Har family celebrates over 65 years in business, they recall when Seaside was a town of vacant lots and business was seasonal. Then, the “season” then lasted four months a year, and many stores were closed for several months, Jeff recalled. The Ter Har name became known in the area in 1951, when the young Bud and Jean Ter Har, fresh from Seattle, bought the former Merriman Hotel in Seaside. In addition to the three-story hotel, the Ter Hars operated a small gift store. Bud and Jean knew the gift business: He had worked as a traveling salesman for a gift company when the couple lived in Seattle. Because the apartment was, according to Bud “too valuable a space to be living in,” the Ter Hars moved in 1958 to a house in Gearhart, where Jean continues to live. Bud died in 2009. The clothing store with the black-and- white awning was torn down when Trendwest Inc. bought it and other property they owned along Broadway and the Prom in 2001 to build its condominiumt resorts. The Ter Hars became owners of the first floor of the building and not only continue to oper- ate their store in a Broadway storefront, but rent out other storefronts to busi- nesses all the way to the Prom. Jean and Bud always believed in reinvesting in Seaside by opening other storefronts. This gives people op- portunities to pros- per in business. 65 years Besides their financial investment in Clatsop County, however, the Ter Hars also invest their time in the community. They often can be seen supporting athletic teams and other student orga- nizations in the Seaside schools. Bud, Peter and Jeff have had associations with the Seaside Downtown Devel- opment Association and The Seaside Chamber of Commerce (all three had a turn as Chamber President). With the business Jean, Jeff & Pavi are able to work and contribute with the Assistance League Columbia Pacific to help clothe children in the county. Pavi is an active member in Assistance League. In addition to the Seaside store, they have operated stores in Astoria and Long Beach, Wash. In 1991, the Ter Hars opened the Cannon beach store, which continues to operate today. “It’s important not only for us to let our customers have a good shopping experience, but we’re also like a mini chamber of commerce,” Jeff said. “People need to know we have an aquarium, a two-mile Prom and where to get seafood.” In total, the Ter Hars own six commer- cial buildings that have 34 different businesses operating in them. All of the properties are in Clatsop County. We’ve appreciated all of our employ- ees over the years, past and present, we couldn’t have done it without your dedicated contribution. 53 years 50 years Follow us on HAUER’S LAWN CARE & EQUIPMENT 503-325-8788 Owner, Ed Hauer, Jr. 295 West Marine Dr. years 70 Astoria, OR 97103 CLATSOP BEHAVIORAL HEALTHCARE “Helping People Live Well” 65 North Highway 101 Suite 204 Warrenton, OR 97146 503-325-5722 Serving Clatsop County for the last 69 years as a family business!
