Loggers: Annual dedication will be held May 11
‘WE WERE FORGETTING WHAT
OUR GUYS LOOKED LIKE WHO
PASSED AWAY. WE SAT AROUND
ON A DECK OF LOGS WONDERING,
‘WHAT CAN WE DO TO PRESERVE
THESE GUYS’ MEMORIES?’’
Continued from Page A1
The Camp 18 Loggers
Museum was founded in
the 1970s by Maurie Clark
and Gordon Smith, former
owners of Camp 18 Restau-
rant. The museum became a
popular spot to stop on the
way to the coast, marked
by a 160-foot spar tree and
a growing collection of
donated logging equipment
from years past.
“We were forgetting
what our guys looked like
who passed away,” said
Mark Standley, a logging
safety consultant and an
organizer behind the addi-
tion of the memorial . “We
sat around on a deck of logs
wondering, ‘What can we
do to preserve these guys’
memories?’”
The idea was to put
some logs out with alu-
minum tags memorializ-
ing late loggers, he said.
But after receiving some
large donations, the project
soon expanded into a small
building.
The entrance to the
memorial is framed by a
large grappling hook, each
end anchored in twin stone
pillars. Inside a heavy set
of double doors is a bronze
cast of a timber faller —
modeled after the late Steve
Boudreau, who worked
for Mor isse Logging Co.
in Astoria for 20 years —
chainsawing through a tree
trunk.
On either side of the
statue are a series of
wooden aisles, each fi lled

with memorials of fami-
lies who have worked in
the industry. The innermost
aisles are dedicated to those
who have died on the job.
“We’re running out of
room,” said Harve Deth-
lefs, the owner of Bighorn
Logging Corp. in Banks
and a board member for the
memorial.
About 350 loggers have
been memorialized so
far, with another 30 or so
plaques added each year,
Standley said. With space
running low, he’s had the
unenviable task of ask-
ing families to consolidate
their memorials as more of
the fallen are added to the
walls.
Interspersed with the
memorials throughout the
museum are tin hats, axes,
climbing spikes and other
tools of the trade. In one
corner is a memorial to the
family of Shawn Teevin,
a local industry mag-
nate whose brother and
father both died in logging
accidents.
“We get hordes of peo-
ple from the restaurant, so
it’d be nice to have some-
thing more visible,” Deth-
lefs said.
The museum hired Asto-
ria-based fi rm Chadbourne
+ Doss Architects to come
up with the design of the
new memorial and museum.
The fi rm has previously
worked on the Alderbrook
Station and Red Building in
Astoria.
“They were very inter-
ested in going modern and
showcasing newer lumber
technologies,” Daren Doss
said.
His fi rm presented sev-
eral designs, from which the
board chose a long, gabled
hall reminiscent of agrarian
sheds in the region. It has a
Homeless: ‘A drop-in center, we need it’
Continued from Page A1
Being homeless can have
a huge impact on a person’s
connections to the wider
world, William E. Willing-
ham Jr. said on Sunday. He
had been homeless in Asto-
ria for several years and ben-
efi ted from the help of orga-
nizations like Filling Empty
Bellies, which provides meals
and other services . He has
since secured housing and is
a regular fi nancial donor to
Filling Empty Bellies.
“I could have used (a
drop-in center) if it was here,
but it wasn’t here and I had
to do it on my own,” Will-
ingham said. He added, “A
drop-in center, we need it.
Every community needs it.”
His comments were
echoed by other home-
less or previously home-
less people who attended the
presentation.

Volunteers help prepare the Helping Hands facility in
Uniontown in June.
Astoria last year, has pushed
for a drop-in facility for a
long time. He encouraged
Filling Empty Bellies to try
to create a facility last year.
The nonprofi t’s efforts
stalled, but director Erin
Carlsen said she is relieved to
see a new group take up the
idea.
She and Hall would love
to see a center that also
employed the people it served
so they could gain skills and
experience and build their
own sense of self-worth and
motivation.
A drop-in center was one
of the things LaMear had
hoped the city could support
or help facilitate — a feeling
expressed by others on the
homelessness solutions task
force.
For now, though, the task
force has focused on other
projects, including a pro-
gram to help homeless peo-
ple reconnect with family or
friends in other towns and get
transportation back home . A
subcommittee is also discuss-
ing a forgiveness program
for people saddled with debt
from court fi nes.
On Monday, Rocka and
City Councilor Jessamyn
West said a drop-in center
may help address other issues
downtown. A previous home-
lessness task force identifi ed
a lack of public bathrooms as
a major issue, and in recent
years police have fi elded
numerous complaints about
public defecation and urina-
tion. Merchants have been
concerned about people loi-
tering or sleeping in door-
ways, but a center would give
them somewhere to be, West
noted.
“We’re good at telling the
homeless where they can’t
be,” Rocka said, adding, “But
we never tell them where
they can be.”
fl exible, free-standing inte-
rior for an expanded memo-
rial, museum, library and
meeting space, and a large
fi replace on one side.
The new hall would face
the highway for maximum
visibility and approximate
the height of the existing
museum, the two buildings
linked by walking paths.
Below the east side would
be a covered area for events
overlooking an outdoor fi re
pit and a fi eld behind.
The project is in the con-
ditional use permit phase
with Clatsop C ounty. Orga-
nizers have held meetings
with surrounding neigh-
bors, who Doss said have
been generally supportive
of the museum and design.
Volunteers began fund-
raising for the new building
a year and a half ago, hiring
a consultant before going
in-house. Several large
donors have already given
around $400,000, but fund-
raising has slowed down
with a defl ated log market
and Chinese tariffs amid a
protracted trade war.
“We’ll have to adjust it
Column: City can
always revisit the policy
Continued from Page A1
The Friends of the
Astoria Column , which
maintains the site, has
invested a lot of money
into the new lighting, City
Councilor Jessamyn West
said.
“I would strongly lean
towards whatever pol-
icy they feel comfortable
with,” she said. While she
enjoys seeing the Col-
umn lit for causes like
breast cancer awareness or
Pride Week celebrations,
the new policy would be
cleaner and easier to fol-
low , she said.
Under the current pol-
icy, lighting requests are
handled on a fi rst-come,
fi rst-served basis. Last
year, some on the City
Council said they pre-
ferred the Column to only
ever be lit with white
light. Others, includ-
ing City Councilor Tom
Brownso n,
described
themselves as “agnostic”
about lighting.
The City Council asked
the Friends of the Astoria
Column to draft a lighting
policy.
The city can always
revisit the policy if the
community decides it does
not like the colored lights
on the Column, Jones
noted.
“We could always
reserve the right to say,
‘That was a bad idea. Let’s
go back to white, ‘” he
said.

to fi t,” Standley said.
The group has looked at
incorporating green build-
ing concepts and newer
construction materials such
as cross-laminated timber,
used in multistory buildings
elsewhere. But the newer
material and sustainability
certifi cation might be over-
kill for the museum’s size
and backing, Doss said.
“For a project strug-
gling with money, you have
to limit expenditures,” he
said. “They’ll try to be as
green as possible.”
To reach its lofty fund-
raising goal, the museum
needs someone to reach out
to large timber landown-
ers, mills and other compa-
nies . “That’s where the big-
ger money’s going to come
from, hopefully, ” Dethlefs
said.
The Camp 18 Log-
gers Memorial will hold
its annual dedication at
10 a.m. May 11. The names
of those added in the last
year will be called out, after
which local high school
forestry teams will compete
in timber sports.
