Motorists: Should
abide by speed
reduction signs
and pay attention
Continued from Page 1A
The Tualatin project
involves adding a south-
bound auxiliary lane on I-5
from north of Lower Boones
Ferry Road to Interstate 205
and on- and off-ramp lane
improvements at Lower
Boones Ferry and Nyberg
Street and on the ramp to
I-205. Work also entails
repaving I-5 from state High-
way 99 West to I-205 for
about 5.5 miles, upgrading
signage, lighting and strip-
ing; and building retaining
walls.
Construction hours are
day and night, with nighttime
lane closures on I-5 begin-
ning as early as 8 p.m. and
intermittent closures on ramp
lanes at night and on some
weekends.
Motorists should abide
by speed reduction signs and
pay attention, especially at
night, Brandon said.
“When you see orange,
slow down,” he said. “It’s
not going to save you any
time to go flying through a
work zone, and if it’s going
to save one person’s life, that
mom or dad or son or daugh-
ter gets to go home at night
because you slowed down a
couple miles per hour. You
need to do it, please.”

Clatsop County Master Gar-
deners have spent the past few
months establishing a learning
and demonstration garden at
the park off U.S. Highway 30,
a project that involved erecting
a deer fence, building beds and
organizing trainees.

Now, orange calendula
flowers bloom in a bed dedi-
cated to plants to attract pol-
linators. Leafy greens are just
starting to push up through the
soil. A Girl Scout troop visited
in April to plant native coastal
strawberries. Most weekends,
someone is there, watering,
planting, organizing.
“To have this available to the
community, I think is just worth
its weight in gold,” said Janet
Willoughby, a master gardener
trainee. “Once a community
learns about it and can come
here: One, it’s going to be a
beautiful, peaceful place, but to
be able to see actively what can
be done on your own to support
your family, yourself … ”
“Especially children,” added
Diane McKenzie, also a trainee
in the program, “who often
don’t have an idea of where
things grow. For them to see
the garden growing and then
be able to be here at harvest
time, I think that is one of the
miracles.”
Educator: Rojas-Galvan hopes to bring language exchange to Astoria

taught at Chemeketa Commu-
nity College and Willamette
University. He began look-
ing for a full-time position
within 100 miles of his home
and found Clatsop Community
College.
“My bread and butter is
teaching,” Rojas-Galvan said.
While 60 percent of his
position entails teaching, the
other 40 percent is outreach, a
portion of his job Rojas-Gal-
van said is still developing.
“In some part, it’s to serve
the Spanish-speaking por-
tion of the county,” he said.
“I do a lot of translating for
other departments in the col-
lege, and for the college in
general.”
Multnomah
County
Library offers a language
exchange during which par-
ticipants spend half the time
speaking in Spanish, and
half in English, a service
Rojas-Galvan hopes to bring
to Astoria. As an early college
student at Portland Commu-
nity College, Rojas-Galvan
said, it was several instruc-
tors who inspired him to be an
educator, a role sees himself
providing.
“I am of the mind that
I think students in general
are attracted by instructors
who love what they do,” he
said.
