Caroline Cummings, ven-
ture catalyst with RAIN

“This is an important event
for our entrepreneurial com-

“This annual, free event will
be celebrating the achieve-
ments of our startups. I sin-
cerely hope you can join us
and show your support.”

seeing you there,” Cummings
said. “Please spread the word.”

“A Holistic Approach to Counseling through
Mindfulness and Meditation”
Community Action retrospective on exhibit
Visitors to the Silver Lining
Gallery during October can see
a wide-ranging assortment of
documents, photos and media
clippings covering almost two
decades. This broad retrospec-
tive shows protests, speakers,
conferences, hotly contested
city council decisions and
many wide-ranging civic group
activities to improve mid-coast
life.
“This unique event reprises a
very rich swath of local histo-
ry,” says Rand Dawson,
Siltcoos Lake resident and par-
ticipant in various local issues.
“Viewers can see hundreds of
events or efforts arising from
their own or neighbors’ direct
engagement in many aspects of
community or public life.”
The exhibition runs Oct. 5 to
29 at the Silver Lining
Boutique, 2217 Highway 101.
Scores of local residents and
organizations have offered
materials across time.
“Who are we here on the
coast? What are our values?
These materials tell or share
interesting tales,” said Dawson,
“From the creation of a water
public utility district, to long
fights over a city ordinance on
septic inspection and pumping,
to street corner war protests.
“And an important purpose
is to hold a community-based

In today’s world, safety is
more of a concern than ever for
parents of school-aged chil-
dren. Whether it’s worry over
natural disasters such as earth-
quakes or tsunamis here on the
Oregon coast, or nightmares of
an intruder, threats to our
schools are real.
In Florence, school adminis-
trators share the same concerns
as parents and have taken —
and continue to take — steps to
mitigate and be prepared to
deal with these threats.
In an effort to open the door
to discussion regarding safety
