Michael Burkett / CB Citizen – Show and Tell. “How to write a press release
that will actually get published”. The media is always looking for news and
interesting stories. Look at your business and employees for interesting
stories. Before beginning to write a news release, go to the publication(s)
that you plan to submit to and look for examples of what they print. Follow
the formatting rules, abbreviation, punctuation, etc found there. Write your
release as a reporter would write it. Do not use I, we, our, etc. Avoid
exclamation points. The less work you leave for the editor the more likely
your release will be published. Submit your release by e-mail. Include your
release in the body of the e-mail message, even if it is attached as a pdf or
doc. When submitting, only submit to the media in your area. Follow up
with a phone call to verify that the release was received and ask if there are
any questions. Every release should include contact information. The Headline
and first paragraph must be alluring. Include a photograph, but make sure it
is a good one. Carol from the Gazette added her suggestion that least
important info be at the end of the release so that if necessary it can be
omitted. Michael described the “Dolly Parton Rule”. As Dolly learned and said
on stage in Vegas after a wardrobe mishap, and as relates to fitting
everything into a publication, “You can’t fit 10 lbs of mud into a 5 lbs
sack”.</SPAN><o:p></o:p></P>

The Great Cannon Beach Puffin Watch, Parade, Concert, Circus Play, Dance Hour
and Fire Dancers on the 4<SUP>th</SUP> all came off very well. Because of rain
after the Parade, the Concert had only about 100 attendees. Jeff estimated 100
participated in the dance which was a good number. The Parade was very well
attended with people lining both sides of Spruce and Hemlock Streets. (See
photos at <A href="http://www.cannon-beach.net/">www.cannon-beach.net</A>) In
spite of drizzle just prior to the Fire Dancing, a crowd of 490 people were
counted there. (see photos at <A
href="http://www.cannon-beach.net/">www.cannon-beach.net</A>) George said that
he had not seen that many people in the park in many years.

In spite of the large numbers of people in town for the 3-day weekend and No
Vacancy signs up and down Hemlock, retail sales were not good. The hope that
summer might change the mood of shoppers is dwindling fast among retailers.

Yesterday’s warm, sunny day brought a steady flow of people to the Farmer’s
Market – 1400 in all. Vendors have reported mixed success. Some are doing
well, others not. Next week a survey will be conducted at the market. Market
is every Tuesday 2-6pm thru Sept 28<SUP>th</SUP>. Locals are encouraged to
take advantage of the 5-6pm hour. The selection is still good as vendors bring
enough to last. Volunteers are appreciated. <A

vote, 5 people to serve on the Tourism and Arts Commission. Those chosen are
Tom Drumheller, Valerie Ryan, Linda Beck-Sweeney, Robin Risley and John
Grosshuesch. The six who were not chosen are Bob Necker, Kristine Gottsch,
Stephanie Ansley, Jim McDonald, Stephen Malkowski and George Vetter. As per
Wendy, because of conflict of interest, some applicants were not chosen.

style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">8. George:
At last night Council Meeting, the Council considered two options for
increasing downtown parking at the East end of Second Street. This would be in
conjunction the construction of the Trail. Option 1 is for adding 30 spaces
and does not involve any fill. Option 2 adds 57 parking spaces and involves
some fill in the now retired (man-made) sewer pond. Option 2 would be better
as far as the Trial is concerned. At the public hearing, 5 people spoke
against adding any parking/paving/fill citing congestion and environmental
concerns. George spoke up in favor of replacing some of the 100 spaces lost
(as per City Planner Rainmar Bartl) in the past 15 years or so. Adding more
parking will not add to congestion but rather alleviate it. People don’t come
to Cannon Beach because we have parking, they come because of Haystack Rock,
the ocean, the beauty and an attractive town that welcomes them. Jeff says
visitors #1 complaint is the lack of parking. Councilor Sam Steidel reminded
everyone that the sewer lagoons are just that – sewer lagoons. They are not
natural and are less than environmentally friendly. He suggested creating
parking that could be used for something else when not needed for cars – a
sport field or the like. The Council tabled the issue. It will be taken up in
a worksession. Send your opinion to <A

Necker: Plein Air and More’s second annual event was this past weekend. It was

photographing throughout town attracted attention. Lodging establishment

suggested more information and education about the event would be helpful next

using them as he walked down the street. See Plein Air and More photos at

Debbie: Sandcastle was a big success. The police counted 1060 cars entering
the beach at Tolovana Wayside (the only beach access). Jeff reported that
Officer Rob Schultz estimated the overall crowd between 21 and 24 thousand.
Jeff had done 13 phone radio interviews on Friday. The weather was perfect. It
was reported that parking was full downtown even though there were not many
people downtown. For next year, Sue, at Land’s End Motel, suggested signage at
the foot of 2<SUP>nd</SUP> Street directing people to the event. People kept
asking them. The downtown BBQ and Concert in the Park were poorly attended
with reports of just 15 people at the Concert. George suggested that many
people on the beach did not know about the BBQ or the Concert and suggested
having someone with a megaphone moving up and down the beach making
announcements including what time judging completes, reminders of the incoming
tide, events in town, etc. Jeff TerHar suggested closing off 2<SUP>nd</SUP>
Street downtown like is down for the car shows and have a sculpture or two
done there, possibly several days before. To avoid the mass entrance and
exodus of cars and people, George would like to see the sculptures last
through Sunday allowing people to come and go (and stay) more leisurely. The
tides are predictable. The plots could be placed so that the next high tide
would not destroy them. A new committee could be formed that would stay on the
beach with the goal of protecting the sculptures from those few who prefer to
destroy them rather than leave them for others to enjoy. In past years, it had
been kids (whose parents sit back and watch) who have destroyed the
sculptures, not the tide. The incoming tide washes smooth the surface, but the
sculptures above water level survive and could and would be enjoyed into the
night and again the next day. Tommy expressed his liking of the way the
sculptures are gone with the next high tide. </SPAN><o:p></o:p></P>

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: black">I just got through my photos and
will upload them to the Internet overnight. For a link to them go to <A
href="http://www.cannon-beach.net">www.cannon-beach.net</A>. The photos appear
in chronological order. If you need higher res images let me know. As I was
leaving the beach after the event around 4pm I stopped at the entrance to talk
to Darrel Walker who had been assigned by the Police Dept to count cars. He
told me he counted 1060 cars that entered the beach at Tolovana. That didn’t
count me and others who were out before he got there.</SPAN><o:p></o:p></P>

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: black">What a great day! Number 46 was
charmed. I can’t remember the last time we had such outstanding weather for
our Sandcastle Contest. And what a great crowd! I was there from 730am till
4pm and didn’t witness anyone having anything other than a great time.
Organizers Kelli Truax Taylor (Bruce’s Candy Kitchen) and Debbie Nelson
(Basketcase) deserve the highest praise along with Chamber Executive Director
Jeff Jewel (Rumored to be in the current Coaster Theatre production). Followed
by John Nelson and Coaster Construction for equipment and time not only for
today’s event but also on Wednesday for the “Sam’s Dragon” sculpture (designed
and orchestrated by Sam Steidel of Steidel’s Art) See “Sam’s Dragon” photos at
<A
href="http://www.cannon-beach.net/sandcastle/sandphotos2010">www.cannon-beach.net/sandcastle/sandphotos2010</A>.
Without the work of today’s layout crew, Sandcastle couldn’t happen. Don Boehm
of Boehm Construction, as he has done for many years alongside Sam Steidel,
led that effort without Sam this year. Mike McEwan/McEwan Construction
supplied the equipment and dug the water holes today and piled the sand on
Wednesday for “Sam’s Dragon”. Debbie was in charge of the judges and Sharon
Visser from the Information Center organized and led the sales tent – which
was a great success. Jim McDonald and Tolovana Inn came through with the tents
and staff to put them up and tear them down. Carol Hungerford of the Gazette
headed the Information/Lost & Found tent with Shari from her staff. Robin
Risley, a long time Sandcastle supporter and enthusiast, was on the Sandcastle
committee and also was a judge. The City supplied the police (thanks Chief
Haliburton) and workers to keep traffic flowing to and from the beach and in
and out of town. It’s 9pm now and I just got off the phone with Kelli. She
says her husband Brian, who has been helping her out all along, is still out
collecting traffic signs that were put out for the day. </SPAN><o:p></o:p></P>

Nichols: Four Paws on the Beach is a pet store in Manzanita. Barbara and
husband Dan, leaving their software careers behind, opened the store in
December 2007 on the heels of the giant wind storm. They carry fun
collars & leashes, toys, treats, apparel, dog and cat food and art. The
quality cat and dog food is without wheat, corn, soy or by-products. Some of
the brands are Merrick, Solid Gold, Wellness, Castor & Pollux, Taste of
the Wild, Canidea and others. They have two big dogs: Newfoundlands, Shanti
and Indie, who hang out at the store. They have done water rescue work,
obedience and agility. Four Paws on the Beach organizes Muttzanita on Saturday
August 14th 2010: <A
href="http://www.muttzanita.com">http://www.muttzanita.com</A>. It is a fun
doggie festival with lots of events such as the Chuck-it toss, Doggie musical
chair, Pet Talent Show, Pet Fashion Show, Pet Parade,etc. The event benefits
United Paws, a local all volunteer spay neuter organization. The store is at
144 Laneda Ave, open 7-Days 10-5 (later when traffic justifies) so come on in
and sniff around. Call 503-368-FIDO or visit the website at <A

accounting software legally free. George pointed out that when someone buys a
full version (as opposed to an upgrade) they retain a full license to the
original version and can give that to someone else. Rick warned about using
trial versions of software, then being locked out until you purchase it.

Mayor Mike Morgan’s request, the Chamber Board authorized Jeff to do what is
necessary to keep the Cannon Beach Community Development Corporation intact
even though there are no immediate project plans. State and Federal monies
that could become available would be available to a CDC that would not be
available otherwise. Jeff has worked with CDC’s. For now what is needed are
quarterly meetings and annual renewals.</SPAN><o:p></o:p></P>

At yesterday’s Chamber General Membership meeting, the financial report

beginning of 2009 to approx $50K in the black now. This $100K turnaround is
the result of the work, effort and support of many people. Quite a few of

George: Last night in a City Council Work Session, future use of the Cannon
Beach Elementary School was discussed. Wendy says the property is currently
owned by the School Board, but will revert back to the County if the school
moves. The School Board has 4 schools in the tsunami zone and is looking to
consolidate them into a campus out of the tsunami zone with a target date of
2014. The City would have to buy from the School Board, the County or both
depending how things end up. The likely use at this point would be a park with
the possibility of saving the gym building for its historical value.

Last week’s sonic boom left some confused and other scared. With tsunami on
people’s minds and in the news these days, shaking of the earth to any degree
can cause concern. Bob Necker suggested that a phone tree could/should be set
up. Rick Diamond spoke of his experience in another community where 5 key
people were designated as those who would be the first to know of any danger
or lack thereof and would each have access to a website where they could post
the info for all to see. Gary Hayes reminded all that texting is something
which could be operational even when phones calls cannot be
made.</SPAN><CITE><SPAN
