The Save Our Shorelines committee sponsored a workshop at the Oregon Coast Community College on April 8th; attendees found it to be an interesting event. After opening greetings the meeting was initiated by a panel including Kent Norris, Jack's Strayer and Josh Brainard. Kent Norris described the process of his Save Our Shoreline project last year. Partnering with Jim and Cheryl Luebke they restored their entire shoreline across two lots.

Kent described some of the frustrations of getting the required permitting in a project that took two years to complete.  In the end, a nudge by Representative Kurt Schrader put the project over the starting line.

On installation day 18 volunteers from The Devil's Lake Neighborhood Association members helped Kent and his professional crew.  With all the volunteers the project timeline was cut in half. Now Kent waits to see how many plants survived this winter, which was characterized very wet with high lake levels.

The date is set for the Fourth Annual Devils Lake Neighborhood Association Fireworks display.

Fireworks Display
Date: Monday July 3rd
