Mini-golf, silent auction
fundraiser is ‘very special’

group’s secretary. “It has been since
its inception.”
The silent auction featured contri-
butions from across Cannon Beach,
from galleries to the restaurants,
hotels and beyond. The offerings
ranged from artwork to boutique gift

The most bandied about item in
the auction was a painting by the re-

roles at a price of $415. The dona-
tion, this time posthumously, was
one of many McCleod made to the
Arts Colony.
“Steve had a special love for Tolo-

auction were announced, so too were
the winners — and losers — of the
mini-golf tournament. Affectionately
known as “Butz,” Dave Butler had the
best round of the day. He shot a 27.

been second and third several times.”
It’s been a long time coming for
Butler, who has not only participat-
ed in the event since its inception,
but helped shape it. Tolovana Arts
Colony founders Billy Hults and Mi-
chael Burgess originally envisioned a
proper golf tournament. They shared
the idea with Butler, a regular on the
links.
“I took one look at them and said,
‘No, you guys can’t play golf,’” But-
ler said with a laugh. “And so we de-
veloped this.”
Needing 59 shots to complete
the course, the ignominy of Worst
Golfer went to Secretary Alburas.
The award for Favorite Hole, based
on votes from the players, went to
Voyages Toys. The approach includ-
ed shooting a target with a toy bow
and arrow that would trigger the golf
ball to drop on the green. If the player
was unable to hit the target with four
ca n n on
bea ch

shots from the bow and arrow they
would get one more chance, this time
throwing a rubber shark.
“It’s an honor and a privilege,”
said Voyage Toys owner Jacob Bond
of the distinction.
Though perhaps not so multi-fac-
eted, challenge and creativity
abounded on the many holes. Can-
non Beach Distillery’s Mike Selberg
concocted a steep ramp that required

hit bottles of his craft spirits were of-
fered a free taste.

depends on the golfer. But accord-
ing to Butler, who on the day was
the most accomplished, it was Bill’s
Tavern--even if it didn’t manage to
trip him up.

one,” Butler said. “That was a very
hard hole.” But the competition was
friendly. “It’s all about the Tolovana
Arts Colony,” he added.
And to that end, Puttz was a suc-
cess.
“It would be a lot harder to pay
our bills without it,” Alburas said. “A
lot. We’re going to be paying our in-
surance. We have all kinds of bills.”
And though Alburas lamented
the gray, albeit dry, skies, remember-
ing that last year’s pristine weather
brought out 10 more participants, it’s
hard to imagine rain would’ve de-
terred the all-local band of golfers who
came to play and show their support.
“It’s very special,” Butler said of
Puttz. “Plus it gives a lot of the locals
a chance to relax and have fun just be-
fore we get really busy this summer.”
“We really love the tourists,” he
added. “We enjoy them. But some-
times its nice to have fun by ourselves.”
Tandem productions to be
performed at the Coaster
By Gregory Zschomler
Cannon Beach Gazette
Cannon Beach visitors and res-
idents alike have some entertain-
ment options this summer as, for
the second year in a row, the Coast-
er Theatre offers two simultaneous-
O\ UXQQLQJ SURGXFWLRQV 7KH ¿UVW
opened June 12, the second opens
this weekend and thereafter they
trade off nights leapfrog-style.
Patrons may see either the Brit-
ish caper “It Could Be Anyone
of Us” where they get to pick the
ending, or may experience the de-
viously delicious out-of-this-world
musical “Little Shop of Horrors,”
or both. And, according to the the-
ater’s executive director Patrick
Lathrop, many do just that.
Lathrop said that running two
shows makes good sense. Visitors,
in town for a short time, might see
one of the productions on a whim,
but so love it they’ll buy a ticket for
the second show as well. Lathrop
adds “it’s a challenge for the actors,
directors and tech people,” who
must also rehearse over the same
period, and nightly set changes add
additional trials for the crew, but
these are nothing that can’t be over-
come by a little ingenuity in sched-
uling and design.
“It Could be Anyone of Us,” by
Alan Ayckbourn and directed by
Ryan Hull, is a mystery from across
the pond. The adventure takes place
in a windswept country house
where a family of artistic failures
wrangles over a will. Characters
include a detective who has never
solved a case, a writer whose works
have never been published, an art-
ist who’s never shown a painting,
a composer whose compositions
have never been performed, and a
dysfunctional teenager.
These are the beginnings for
a comedic murder mystery, but
there’s more. The victim is not
who it should be, and the murder-
er’s identity, by patron vote taken
at intermission, changes overnight.
Throw in some tongue-in-cheek hu-
mor and the play’s comedic thrills
and you’re bound to be entertained.
The cast includes Stewart Martin
as Mortimer Chalke, Ann Bronson
as Jocelyn Polegate, Cedar Braasch

Opening June 19, “Little Shop of
Horrors,” with book and lyrics by
American playwright Howard Ash-
man, who died in 1991, and music
by Alan Menken, is directed by the
theater’s executive director, Patrick
Lathrop, assisted by Joseph Oyala.
Musical direction is provided by
Chris Engbretson.
In this extremely popular,
award-winning musical, the meek
ÀRUDO DVVLVWDQW 6H\PRXU .UHO-
born, stumbles across a new breed
of plant he names “Audrey II” af-
ter his coworker crush. This foul-
PRXWKHGFDUQLYRURXVÀRZHUSURP-
ises unending fame and fortune to
WKHGRZQDQGRXW.UHOERUQDVORQJ
as he keeps feeding it blood. Over
time, though, Seymour discovers
Audrey II’s out of this world origins
and her intent on global domination.
The musical is based on the
low-budget 1960 black comedy
¿OP GLUHFWHG E\ 5RJHU &RUPDQ
The music, composed by Menken
is in the style of early 1960s rock
and roll, doo-wop and early Mo-
town.
The cast includes Cameron Lira
as Audrey, Todd Payne as Seymour
.UHOERUQ &LQG\ .DUU DV &U\VWDO
Amanda Payne as Ronnette, Aly
Hanson as Chiffon, David Sweeney
as Mr. Mushnik, and Richard Bow-
man in numerous roles.
The theater endeavors to hon-
or family sensitivity. Though the
musical contains some “adult lan-
guage” Lathrop assures that “the
negative thing isn’t reinforced,”
isn’t condoned, “but reprimanded”
thereby teaching, contrasting “good
and bad.”
Lathrop said that many factors
go into choosing shows to produce.
A committee—made up from mem-
bers of the Coaster board as well as
supporters—takes into account the
salability of a show as well as it’s
prospective for artist expression, the
potential production budget, cast
size, and, of course, entertainment
value.
“These two shows are fairly
light in content,” said Lathrop ac-
knowledging that theater often has
a message. “People will laugh and
be entertained.”
“It Could Be Anyone of Us” runs
June 21, 27; July 2, 8, 10, 16, 19, 22,
24, 30; Aug. 1, 6, 8, 12, 14, 16, 20,
