7A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • WEDNESDAY, JULY 25, 2018 Rescue crews search for missing in Greek wildfires; at least 79 dead By COSTAS KANTOURIS and ELENA BECATOROS Associated Press Edward Stratton/The Daily Astorian Tiffani Seitz, left, is co-owner of the South Bay Wild Seafood Market & Restaurant. Market: Grand opening currently set for October Continued from Page 1A The decor is steeped in maritime and fishing his- tory. Signaling flags hang in the front windows. A black cod pod has been turned into a chandelier. Count- ers and tabletops come from bin boards used to separate catches on a boat. “We’re trying to repre- sent the different fisheries,” Tiffani Seitz said of the nets, pots, buoys and other tools of the fishing trade on display. A sign from boatbuilder The Beebe Co. hangs above the upstairs bar, where fish nets help form the railings around the dining area. A sal- vaged door from the New Carissa, a freighter that ran aground near Coos Bay in 1999, sits in a back storage room waiting to be displayed. Rob Seitz , an Alaska native, moved to the North Coast in 1992 after oil from the Exxon Valdez spill affected Cook Inlet where he had fished. Tiffani Seitz worked in the local restaurant industry and by 2009 earned a welding certificate from Clatsop Community College, later teaching courses to high schoolers. The two left in 2011 for Morro Bay, where they had a chance to buy a fishing boat and be a part of the Califor- nia Groundfish Collective, an effort to sustainably harvest fish populations that had col- lapsed along the state’s coast- line. After purchasing their vessel and starting South Bay Wild in 2013, the couple began processing their own catches, selling directly to restaurants and markets and even sending live seafood to restaurateurs around San Francisco. “We founded South Bay Wild to get vertically inte- grated to help pay for the new sustainability measures,” Rob Seitz said. But the couple eventually found the fishery in Califor- nia financially unsustainable and left the collective, mov- ing back to Astoria last year. They saw a sign advertising rental space in the Mary & Nellie Building, where Mar- cus and Michelle Liotta had recently begun a restoration and recruitment of tenants after buying the ailing down- town landmark. The seafood market opens Tuesdays, and the restaurant Wednesdays. On Sundays, if Rob Seitz is in from fish- ing for shrimp and ground- fish, the family takes over the restaurant, making fish tacos. “It seems like it gives us more control over a roll- er-coaster industry,” Rob Seitz said of running the mar- ket and restaurant. The family is still finish- ing out the restaurant and expanding into a storefront next door. They’re holding off on a grand opening until early October, when their fishing friends will be done with the salmon season in Alaska. MATI, Greece — Res- cue crews were searching Wednesday through charred homes and cars for those still missing after the deadli- est wildfires to hit Greece in decades decimated seaside areas near Athens, killing at least 79 people and sending thousands fleeing. There was no official indi- cation as to how many peo- ple might be missing, and some took to social media and Greek television stations with appeals for information on their loved ones. Survivors described dra- matic scenes of people flee- ing to beaches and being AP Photo/Thanassis Stavrakis A man stands next to his burned house and car as he speaks on his cellphone in Mati, east of Athens. forced to swim out to sea despite gale-force winds and high waves to escape chok- ing smoke and flaming pine cones raining down into the water. Fire service spokeswoman Stavroula Malliri said the death toll had increased by five to 79. There were fears it would increase further as rescue crews gradually went through the hundreds of burnt homes, while others searched the coastline and the sea. More than 280 firefight- ers were still in the area to the northeast of Athens in the wider Rafina area, dous- ing the remaining flames to prevent flare-ups. A further 200 firefighters backed up by a water-dropping helicop- ter were tackling the second forest fire west of the capital, near Agioi Theodori, where local authorities pre-emp- tively evacuated three com- munities, a children’s summer camp and three mon- asteries overnight, according to the fire department. Flags across Greece flew at half-staff after the prime minister declared three days of national mourning. Movies: Private sponsors step up Continued from Page 1A But sponsors have since stepped up. This year, local service organizations banded together to host the Easter egg hunt at Tapiola Park. Last summer, sponsors provided the funds to show two mov- ies at Fred Lindstrom Park. This year, the department gained three sponsors for the program. Through all the bud- get upheavals, another mov- ies-in-the-park program has continued unchanged: “Parks After Dark” at McClure Park. The Astoria Parks Recre- ation and Community Founda- tion charges attendees $5 per ticket and shows throwback adult or teen-oriented films like “Raiders of the Lost Ark” and “Back to the Future.” The McClure Park show- ings are sponsored this sum- mer by the Astoria Co-op Grocery, Astoria Downtown Historic District Association and the Liberty Theatre, with beer for sale donated by Fort George Brewery and pizza donated by Baked Alaska. Each showing at McClure Park may draw 50 to 75 peo- ple. It costs around $500 to put on, said Tammy Loughran, treasurer for the foundation. After technical difficulties and poor sound quality during a showing of “Indiana Jones” last week, the foundation plans to hold a free showing of the movie in the next week or two, Cosby said. With the different focuses, both movie programs are important to the Parks and Recreation Department’s mis- sion. McClure, off Eighth Street, and Fred Lindstrom, at the top of the hill on Niag- ara Avenue near the Peter Pan Market, are neighborhood parks. The movie nights are a way to get people into the parks and interacting with their community, organizers say. Warming center: Opened for 80 nights during past season Continued from Page 1A “To me that means the Plan- ning Commission that was lis- tening to the neighborhood concerns last year … feels we’ve made tremendous prog- ress in addressing their constit- uents’ concerns,” he said. Board members can now get to work soliciting cash donations, recruiting and train- ing volunteers and re-establish- ing arrangements with local restaurants and businesses for food donations. The warming center could be one of the few options for people this year. The North Coast experienced a rela- tively minor winter, said Board Member Annie Mar- tin. But it is unlikely warm- ing centers in Warrenton and the nearby Long Beach Pen- insula in Washington state will be open this year. If the win- ter is harsher this year, Martin expects they will be at capacity in Astoria every night the cen- ter is able to be open. The warming center opened for 80 nights during the past season and served 161 people, according to a head count con- ducted by staff. The Planning Commis- sion is still working on a code amendment that would estab- lish how and where warming centers operate in Astoria. The commissioners hope including emergency shelters in city code could make it easier to establish and operate the facilities in the long term, while also minimiz- ing the impact on the neighbor- hoods where they are located.
