WHEELER — Pull up your
boots, don your rain gear, and
prepare to take out the trash
— from the estuary that is.
The biennial Nehalem Estuary
Cleanup returns for its 10th
year on Saturday, March 11.
In 2015, over 150 volun-
teers dedicated their time,
collecting 2.37 tons of trash
and 915 pounds of recyclable
and reusable material from the
estuary, including metal, glass,
plastic and paper. Interesting
finds included a mattress, a
port-a-potty door, 14 railroad
spikes, 105 flip flops, 350 shot-
gun shells and one message in
a bottle.
Orientation begins at 7:30
a.m. at the Wheeler Masonic
Hall at Handy Creek Bakery,
located at 63 N. Highway 101,
in downtown Wheeler.
Volunteers of all ages and
abilities are welcome. Oppor-

debris, sorting materials, help-
ing with set-up and take-down,

Watch Pittock family history come to life
Seaside library
hosts historical
presentation
SEASIDE — The Friends of
the Seaside Library will host
a dramatic presentation of
“Georgiana Pittock Her Last
10 Years” with historical
actress Mary Hutchins. The
event will take place in the
Community Room at 7 p.m.
Thursday, March 16.
Hutchens (portraying
Mrs. Pittock) and Mike
Hutchens (portraying her
chauffeur), will tell the ac-
count of Georgiana and Hen-
ry Pittock as they came west
on the Oregon Trail, and
their settlement in Portland.
The Pittock family played a
major role in the history of
Portland and the growth of
Oregon’s largest city.
They will also tell the
story of the Pittocks’ last 10
years between 1908-1918,
with the building of the Pit-
tock Mansion, the evolution
of women’s voting rights in
Oregon, World War I, and
dealing with the effects of a
stroke.
The Pittock family visited
Seaside on many occasions,
and the presentation will
touch on their experiences
on the Oregon Coast too.
Historical actress Hutch-
ens has been portraying
Georgiana Pittock since
2007 and has told her story
to school children, residents
of elder living facilities,
museums, libraries and
philanthropic organizations.
She will be in full period
costume for the presenta-
tion.
The Seaside Public
Library is located at 1131
Broadway. For more infor-
mation call 503-738-6742,
