Master artists will build on tradition, creating sculptures of sand that are washed away by the next high tide at the 52nd an- nual Cannon Beach Sandcastle Contest in Cannon Beach, Saturday, June 11. The city hosts its annual contest, the oldest competition of its kind in the Paciic Northwest and the most popular event in this Oregon Coast town.
