4 B SIUSLAW NEWS ❚ SATURDAY, JANUARY 23, 2016 Fee stations to be consolidated to reduce theft, vandalism REEDSPORT — Repeated theft and vandalism of fee sta- tions in isolated locations along the Oregon Coast is causing Siuslaw National Forest officials to reconsider how it collects user fees that support local recreational activities. The frequently targeted fee stations will be removed, and visitors will be directed to nearby fee stations in more secure locations or to local businesses that serve as recre- ation pass vendors. “Providing safe and enjoy- able recreational opportunities to the public is a Forest Service priority, and recreation fees play an important role in that mission,” said Tom Johnson, the recreation coordi- nator who oversees the area’s fee collection program. The selected fee stations are expected to be removed by April 2016. Affected sites will have directions posted to the next closest fee station or pass vendor. A list of recreation pass ven- dors throughout Oregon and Washington is continually updated under the “Passes and Permits” section at www.fs. usda.gov/siuslaw. Online pass sales also are available through the site.

Viks from 1B thanks to a 3-pointer at the end of the quarter. A pitch from Hickson to Mitchell at the start of the second quarter put Siuslaw within four, with Cornish sinking a pair of free throws to make it a single- bucket game. Both teams traded baskets for the remainder of the period. Missed free-throw attempts by Marshfield allowed the Vikings to close the gap as Mitchell scored a breakaway layup to make it 19-20 with 2:24 before the half. A charity shot by the Pirates was the final score of the half, leaving Siuslaw one basket away, 21-19, at the break. Coming into the top of the third quarter, Siegel attacked the basket and tied the game. The Pirates answered at the opposite end of the court, only to have senior guard Kenneth Thrall drain a long 3-pointer to give the Viks their first lead, 24-23. Marshfield scored on the return, but Thrall answered again from well outside the arc, 27-25. Unfortunately for the Viks, the Pirates then went on a 15-0 run that, despite Siuslaw’s best efforts, became too much to overcome down the stretch. In the meantime, the Viks con- tinued to battle. Trailing 43-30 to start the final quarter, Siuslaw scored the first six points of the quarter with a free throw from Siegel, steal and fastbreak from Mitchell, and a 3- pointer from Hickson that cut the Pirates’ lead to seven. Dakotah Hill, Owner As the clock cleared the 3:00 mark, the Viks were down 51-41 as the Pirates went into a delay game to squander the clock and force Siuslaw to foul for posses- sion. The ploy worked as Marshfield secured the win, 53- 43. The win was Marshfield’s 14th in 16 games. “We saw how we were capa- ble of competing,” said Mitchell. “It was a good night for us as a team.” Last night, the Vikings (0-2) were on the road at Brookings (1-1) after press deadlines. Tuesday, Siuslaw will be at Douglas. Tipoff is 7:30 p.m. 541.214.0714 • 1745 15th, Florence kodyhill96@live.com Let me Showcase your property.
