The creamery won first place last weekend at the annual American Cheese Society’s Judging & Competition for its Vampire Slayer curds, under the “fresh, unripened cheeses with flavor added” category. The competition was held in Madison, Wis. “It’s probably the largest cheese judging competition in North America,” said a proud Face Rock Creamery owner Greg Drobot on Monday. “Kind of like the Oscars of cheese.” Drobot said the award is a huge honor and almost unprecedented with such a new company. “It’s a testament to head cheesemaker Brad Sinko and also to the Scolari’s quality of milk,” Drobot said. The ACS competition is the same one that Sinko was awarded Best in Show for his Beecher’s Flagsheep cheddar last year. More than 1,700 cheeses were entered in the competition. There are 30 to 40 judges ■ See Cheese, A6 Photo by Amy Moss Strong, Bandon Western World Award winning cheese Face Rock Creamery head cheesemaker Brad Sinko, middle, owner Greg Drobot, left, and company vice president Daniel Graham pose with a blue ribbon the creamery won last weekend at a prestigious cheese competition in Wisconsin.

Bandon Dunes to host USGA in 2015 Port mural will depict Bandon in 1913 By John Gunther Bandon Western World By Amy Moss Strong BANDON — Bandon Dunes Golf Resort made history in 2011 when it became the first site to host the U.S. Amateur Public Links Championships for both men and women at the same time. In 2015, the resort will make history again when it hosts the first U.S. Women’s Amateur Four-Ball Championships. The new United States Golf Association event replaces the public links championships, which will be contested for the final time in 2014. USGA made the announcement of the site for the inaugural tournament last week at the Olympic Club in San Francisco, which will host the first men’s tournament, also in 2015. The 2015 women’s championship, which will include 64 two-person teams, will be contested April 30-May 6 on the Bandon Dunes course. The teams will play two rounds of stroke play to reduce the field to 32 teams for the match play portion of the event. Four-ball, played in a best ball format, is one of the styles of play used in the Ryder Cup and is widely popular in the United States. Both players on a Bandon Western World Contributed photo by Julie Miller, Bandon Chamber of Commerce Fresh Tuna A crowd gathers at the Port of Bandon boat basin docks, where fresh tuna is unloaded, bled and sold. Tuna season is in full swing and the availability of fresh product draws many locals who like to can or cook their own from fish purchased straight from the boat. ■ See Mural, A6 ■ See USGA, A6 Alive After Five is back on the 16th Youth and experience collaborate in project Bandon Western World Bandon Western World BANDON — There’s always something the young can learn from the older generation, but it’s a remarkable event when both age groups gain knowledge together for a common cause. That was the case last month when Heritage Place Community Assisted Living Facility hosted Angela Haseltine-Pozzi, lead artist of the Washed Ashore Project, and Kathy Siemer with her group of students from the Bandon Summer Recreation Program, in the facility’s Grand Pacific Dining Room. The result was a celebration. “It was a delightful reception to celebrate the collaboration of the antipodal generations working together to further the Washed Ashore Project’s noble mission of expressing ocean environmental awareness through art,” said Heritage Place community relations director Tom Dimmick. Residents of Heritage Place have been making field trips to the Washed Ashore ■ See Collaboration, A6 BANDON — Residents will soon be able to enjoy a bit of Bandon history every time they head down First Street. The Port of Bandon has commissioned local artist Vicki Affatati to paint a historical mural on the street side wall of the Old Town Marketplace building. A 1913 sepia rendition of Bandon’s port district will cover a 10-foot by 40-foot area. Depicting original buildings, a tall ship and passenger schooner and a period Model T and horse-drawn milk wagon, the mural commemorates the Port of Bandon’s 1913-2013 centennial. Bandon and other South Coast towns have a rich treasury of colorful public art. And Affatati has been instrumental in restoring that art, much of which has faded due to the harsh coastal elements. Affatati, along with teenage helpers and gallons of paint, restored the Jack Champayne mural on Bandon’s water treatment place three years ago. She just completed restoring a whimsical movie mural in Port Orford on the side of the Savoy Theatre. Contributed photos by Tom Dimmick Above, youngsters from the Bandon Summer Recreation Program work with Heritage Place residents on Washed Ashore projects. Left, Edna Paulson leads the way on Heritage Place’s aqua adventure at Washed Ashore. The Greater Bandon Association is gearing up for Bandon’s third Alive After Five. The third Friday of the month activity will run from 5 to 8 p.m. on Aug. 16. Alive After Five will once again feature an Art Walk. A variety of activities will be featured on this month’s Walk including the music of Mark Tierney at Art By The Sea Gallery and Studio. And many shops will be featuring art as well. Many other activities will be taking place during July’s Alive After Five. WinterRiver Books will be hosting Tom Baake, author of two books of local interest, “Out Our Back Door” and “Oregon South Coast Bike Ride Guide”. The Toy Room will be providing a kids’ craft activity. And Forget-Me-Knots will be doing demos on simple sewing projects to spice up your dinner table. Many participants stopped for wine at Pacific Blues during June and July’s Alive After Five. The Loft Wine and Deli will be offering wine, salami and cheese tastings and more at its new wine shop and deli. Complimentary wine and coffee will be available at Bandon Mercantile which will also be demonstrating new products. More news on this month’s Alive After Five activities will be forthcoming.

In the case of this past weekend this statement couldn’t be truer. I was inspired about the arts culture here on the coast. It started when I had a conversation on Friday afternoon with a community memJeff ber about the amazPrecourt, ing Oregon Coast publisher Music Festival. Then on Saturday my wife and I visited the Port of Bandon’s WindFest and we purchased a piece of art for our home. Then we headed for the Coos Art Museum to see the opening of the 20th Annual Maritime Art Exhibit. The featured speaker at Saturday night’s dinner was John Stobart, an English-born artist known for his maritime paintings. As I sat in the museum, surrounded by art and listening to Mr. Stobart expound on the artist’s scope I was inspired again. But my inspiration was not only coming from his presentation. I started to think about the rich arts culture we have here on Oregon’s South Coast. I thought about the gift of having such a wonderful art museum in downtown Coos Bay. I thought back to all of the public art displays I’ve seen throughout Coos Bay, North Bend, Bandon, Coquille and Reedsport. With an influx of visitors to the coast in recent months I’ve noticed greater numbers of people taking photos of murals. I’ve also read about more public art recently emerging in Bandon, Coos Bay and Port Orford on mural walls. But the coast doesn’t only offer visual arts. The Oregon Coast Music Festival recently celebrated 35 years of providing quality classical music and creative musical experiences, attracting more than 5,000 attendees each year. Another great example would be Music on the Bay, featuring a free concert series every September in Mingus Park. The Washed Ashore Project, dubbed as “Art to Save the Sea” is adding a social impact to art as it raises awareness about what happens when we fail to reduce, reuse and recycle. This project is based in Bandon and is now reaching across the nation and the world. I could go on and on with examples because there is an ample supply. But it won’t remain that way if we don’t remain committed to keeping the arts alive. Mr. Stobart talked about the lack of focus on the arts in many of the world’s school systems. This isn’t the case here in Oregon. So visit the museums, enjoy the theatrical productions and attend the concerts. We’ll inspire the younger generations to do the same. Letters Appreciated the anthem I wanted to take a moment and personally thank the city of Bandon for playing our national anthem during the Fourth of July fireworks. As a veteran, I find it heartwarming and inspiring to know that our community proudly displays patriotism and shows love of country. I am proud to live in a community that shows this pride all the time and not just during times of tragedy and strife. I know that the system that was used to play the anthem wasn't intended for that purpose, but what better alternate purpose could we as Americans ask the system to have? I have heard people say that the playing of The Star Spangled Banners and other patriotic works was offensive and akin to Third Reich brainwashing. Are you American or not? How can you not take immense pride in our nation's colors waving proudly with her anthem being played proudly? I understand it was loud for some, and that is the pits, but it was our National Anthem! Be proud to live in a city that takes pride in her country! Again, city of Bandon and all involved, thank you for playing our National Anthem. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I salute you. Anne Jelinek United States Navy, Retired - OS2(SW) Bandon Ashamed of the president Wow! “All-wrong Obama” strikes again. Wasn’t it recently he proclaimed “Al Qaeda has been decimated?” Now there is a travel advisory for all Americans though Aug. 31 to avoid Africa, the Middle East, etc. Embassies are being shut down. According to his goofy spokesperson, Jay Carney, “Al Qaeda is an ongoing threat.” Since when? Since the current resident of the White House claimed it was decimated? I’m ashamed of this socalled president, this country and especially the people who voted for him. We need a leader, not a wimp and liar who has destroyed our standing throughout the world. We are being laughed at and derided more than ever before in our history. I am angry! Oh, by the way, Sharon Rodrigues, I am a registered Independent who refuses to let any party tell me how I can think. Sharon Leslie Bandon Chamber failed a volunteer After 15 years of sitting at the Bandon Chamber of Commerce every Sunday morning, Maggie Karl was, in her own words, “fired.” On July 21, the Bandon Chamber executive director told Maggie there simply wasn’t enough foot traffic to support having it open on Sunday mornings, but the afternoon shift would continue to be staffed. Maggie was incredulous. She’d greeted 37 people that morning alone! At 92 years of age, there are few things that continue to give my mother a sense of purpose and pleasure. Sitting at the chamber was a commitment she looked forward to and kept religiously and without fail.

Maggie’s daughter, and as a clinical social worker and senior advocate, I went into investigative mode and phoned the chamber executive director. What I learned was that over the previous four to six months, Maggie had been observed by board members who came and went from the chamber to be less than 100 percent in answering the phone and addressing visitor inquiries. Granted, my mother would be the first to acknowledge she has been in decline the past year. The fact that she is hard of hearing and has difficulty manipulating her hearing aids due to her arthritic hands doesn’t help matters either. But that aside, she is 100 percent cognitively intact and is no one’s fool. After speaking to the executive director and sharing with Maggie the true underlying reason for her dismissal, she expressed feelings of hurt and rejection. Most importantly, however, she finds it unfortunate in the extreme that the board has chosen to close the Visitor Center on Sunday mornings (they were apparently unsuccessful in finding anyone willing to commit to Sunday mornings) versus allowing Maggie to continue to greet the public and offer what assistance she can. I also let the executive director know that Maggie’s last three Sundays of service were not without difficulty. The first week of July my mother fell in her home and fractured three ribs, yet it never once occurred to her to call in sick or miss her three and a half hour Sunday morning shift at the Visitor Center. For myself, I find the “behind the scenes” process explained by the executive director to be most objectionable and disrespectful. At no time did anyone on the board attempt to communicate their concerns to Maggie. Instead, the news of the closure hit her like a tsunami and without warning. Volunteers are the mainstay of many business organizations and often the pool is made up of retirees and senior people with disabilities. They deserve every bit of respect an organization has to offer and unfortunately, in this instance, the Bandon Chamber of Commerce failed miserably. Shame on you. Kay Payne Sisters A trip down memory lane Recently, while cleaning out my jewelry box, I came across a sweater pin of an amusement park. It has a Ferris wheel, a roller coaster and arcades. It immedi- ately brought to memory the sights, sounds and smell of thick black grease that kept the gears and cogs turning in the salty air of famed Pacific Ocean Park down in Southern California. This was a magical place where King Neptune guarded the gate against intruders with his trusty trident — a weapon that resembles a three-tined fork, and where mermaids found shelter in their giant clamshells. I can hear the chair of the roller coaster clicking, inching its way to the top only to spill over the edge down, down as everyone screams with delight and panic as the wooden coaster creaks as it careens over the great blue Pacific Ocean. It seems I was able to convince my very loving, indulgent mother to take me there at least once every week. It was, after all, a very magical place and only 10 minutes from my childhood home of Venice, Calif. So as we drove there, inevitably I would break into a chorus of “Zippity Doo-Dah,” very pleased that I got my way — again, but I think my mom enjoyed it every bit as much as me. For those folks too young to know what Pacific Ocean Park (POP) was, you can Google pictures of it on the computer, and while you’re at it, look up the words to the song “Zippity Doo Dah.” In an age where young and old alike seem to enjoy everyone and everyone else except the moment they are presently in (i.e. texting and talking on cell phones instead of to the person or persons in front of them or at the other side of the dinner table), I ask, what memories will they recall? I would love to see an amusement park get built with some of that grant money. We could start slow, one ride at a time, like the London Eye giant Ferris wheel that will give you an eagle’s view of our fair town. Then add some bumper cars. It would teach young mechanics about how to keep things running. The crown jewel of our collection of thrills would of course be a daring roller coaster that juts out over the sea and maybe, just maybe, King Neptune will return to guard the gates against intruders, or, at the very least, charge willing tourists that want something more to do besides hike, camp, stay at a motel or go out to eat. It would be a place where cell phones are checked in with the mermaids and locked up for a time. So the memories of the souls that pass through Neptune’s gate would be of a magical time of salty air, popcorn, thick black roller coaster grease and delightful screams of joy that will never be forgotten.

The ACS Judging & Competition is the leading competition of American-made cheeses and this year there were entrants from all over the North America and several from South America and Europe. “This is the competition that really means something,” Sinko said. ■ from Page A1 “It was a big surprise for a first-year company that is only two months into the business, especially in Wisconsin, where they are known for their curds.” The American Cheese Society is a nonprofit trade organization founded in 1983 to support the North American artisan and specialty cheese industry. This year’s competition was ACS’s largest ever, with 257 companies submitting 1,794 different products. Unlike other cheese competitions where cheeses are only graded down for technical defects, ACS’s goal is to give positive recognition to those cheeses that are of the highest quality in “It was a big surprise for a firstyear company that is only two months into the business...” — Cheesemaker Brad Sinko their aesthetic and technical evaluation, according to the ACS website. As a result, the highest quality cheeses are those that ACS feels deserve the recognition of an award, based on a minimum number of points awarded (totaling 100 points possible) for first, second, or third place. In categories or sub-categories where the minimum number of points is not earned, no award is given.

Collaboration exhibit in the Harbortown Events Center throughout the spring and summer, according to HaseltinePozzi. When Heritage Place residents learned that the Summer Recreation group of children would be participating in the Washed Ashore Project over the summer, the residents expressed interest in working on a project together. It was smiles galore on July 16, a hallmark day for the collaborative effort as senior citizens and schoolaged children shared tables at Washed Ashore’s workshop in Old Town to build pieces of a giant Texas starfish, destined to be installed for a Washed Ashore patron somewhere ■ from Page A1 in the Lone Star state. “Washed Ashore has truly transformed the Harbortown Events Center into a magical space,” Dimmick said. “The Heritage Place residents and Summer Recreation kids shared a common sense of wonder while creating and enjoying this amazing art installation that is saving the world one piece of plastic at a time” Ten days later, on July 26, Siemer brought the children and HaseltinePozzi brought the Washed Ashore program to Heritage Place. Under Haseltine-Pozzi’s direction, the children and residents created a series of drawings while enjoying appetizers and desserts made by Heritage Place head chef Jason Lubke. “It was a delightful afternoon, and the resulting artwork was carefully cut, preserved and mounted as individual pieces to be displayed in the lower hallway entrance to the Heritage Place banquet room,” Dimmick said. “Heritage Place would like to thank Washed Ashore, Bandon Summer Recreation, Price ’n Pride, Ray’s Food Place and Christa Wales of Bandon Frame & Photoworks for the hard work, inspiration and donation of supplies that made this colorful multi-generational ecologically conscious collaboration possible,” Dimmick added.

Drobot said business has been good, and 1,000 customers a day on the weekend is not uncommon. “We’re selling lots of cheese, ice cream and cheeses,” specialty Drobot said, adding that the wine and beer bar is now open, where customers can also order a cheese board to go with their beverages. Face Rock Creamery is looking to expand and will be selling product in a limited number of grocery stores by fall and many more throughout the Northwest by next summer, Drobot said. Sinko said he plans to make a red and green peppercorn specialty cheese for the holidays and will start making a cloth-bound cheese soon, using a special labor-intensive process. He’s also hoping to purchase sheep milk for cheesemaking. Best-selling cheeses at the creamery are Black Jack, Grand Opening Cheddar, Vampire Slayer cheddar and curds and Face Rock Jack.

During 2012, more than 150 championships that included four-ball were played in all 50 states and the District of Columbia, said John Bodenhamer, the senior managing director for USGA. “Because the four-ball format lends itself to spirited team competition and aggressive riskreward shotmaking style of play, we are confident these championships will deliver exciting amateur golf to the national stage for players and spectators alike,” Bodenhamer said. The announcement last week also included the sites for the 2016 tournaments — Winged Foot in New York for the men and the new Streamsong Resort in Florida for the women. Both Bandon Dunes and Streamsong are managed by KemperSports and the two courses at Streamsong were designed by architects ■ from Page A1 who also designed courses at Bandon Dunes — Tom Doak and the pair of Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw. KemperSports President Josh Lesnik, the first general manager at Bandon Dunes, said the resort became interested in hosting the championship once it was announced by USGA in February. “It is frankly the most popular format among our resort guests at these two communities,” Lesnik said. This will be the fifth USGA championship hosted by Bandon Dunes, which also was site for the 2006 Curtis Cup, the 2007 U.S. Mid-Amateur and the 2011 Public Links Championships. “On behalf of the staff and caddies at Bandon Dunes Golf Resort, we are honored to host the inaugural U.S. Women’s Four-Ball Amateur Championship,” said owner Mike Keiser. “The four-ball format is the most popular among our resort guests and amateurs alike, and we are excited to bring it to a USGA championship.” Bandon Dunes General Manager Hank Hickox said the resort staff is looking forward to hosting another national championship. “For us to be chosen is a real honor for the entire team,” he said. “The entire team is already excited about having the opportunity to host it.” Lesnik said that attitude will spread to Bandon as well. “It creates a real sense of community pride,” he said. Though the tournament won’t be played until 2015, qualifying likely will begin late next summer in some areas, including the northern parts of the country that sometimes don’t have courses ready to play early enough in the spring for teams to qualify for an event that begins in April. Qualifying will be held at sites across the country. Contributed art Bandon in 1913 The Port of Bandon has commissioned local artist Vicki Affatati to paint a mural on the side of the port’s big green building that now houses the Old Town Marketplace. The above rendering is a rough sketch of how the painting will look. The port is funding half the cost, but is selling raffle tickets for a large brass and mixed alloy propeller to raise additional funds. The raffle drawing will be held during Cranberry Festival in September. Tickets are three for $5 and can be purchased at the Old Town Marketplace every Friday and Saturday. For a donation of $500 or more, donors can have their name painted into the mural. For more information, contact Port General Manager Gina Dearth at 541-347-3206. Mural Affatati also has been commissioned by Port Orford’s Main Street organization to restore a Champayne mural there later this summer and has two other mural projects pending that will involve students from the Bandon School District’s After School Arts and Culture Club. Affatati started the club at Harbor Lights Middle School a couple of years ago and is now assisted by Sheri McGrath. The group has been meeting regularly over the summer as well. One of the new murals will be painted in Bandon on the side panels of the building on the corner of 11th Street and U.S. Highway 101, commissioned by owner Dave Reed. The other mural will be painted on Bandon Community Health Need to sell something? ■ from Page A1 Center, on the side facing the Face Rock Creamery building, and will depict native plants to raise awareness of Bandon High School’s Go Native project. The Port of Bandon mural has been conceived over a couple of years. Affatati worked on a detailed design that depicts historic Bandon from the east end of First Street, where the former jail was located, to the west end, with the Coquille River behind it and the ocean in the background. “It’s a 1913 scene of what it looked like in that area before the fire,” Affatati said. “It will be painted in sepia tones so it looks like an old-fashioned photo or postcard.” Scaffolding of the mural will be set up this week and painting will begin soon. Raffle to raise funds In order to raise additional funds for the project, a raffle is underway, with the drawing to be held during Cranberry Festival, Sept. 13 to Sept. 15, for a large brass and mixed alloy propeller that can be used as a lawn or garden accent. Raffle tickets are three for $5 and can be purchased any Friday or Saturday this summer at the Old Town Marketplace. For a substantial donation ($500 or more), the donor’s name or business name can be painted right into the mural.

As the city prepares to award a bid for the rehabilitation of the historic theater building, fundraising efforts continue to close in on the target amount needed to pay for it. The Egyptian Theatre Preservation Association received another grant award on Tuesday, July 30. Wednesday, July 31, they hit the streets for a fundraising two-day campaign targeting local businesses. Bob More, the director and capital campaign coordinator for the ETPA, says they are a little more than $80,000 away from their target. “Our goal is still $750,000,” More said last week, after getting word of their latest grant. “We’re trying to narrow the gap as fast as we can.” The Oregon Cultural Trust is delivering $7,500 to aid the cause. Those funds will support improvements including seismic upgrades, ADAcompliant restrooms on the main floor, and inspections to secure TENT T E N T SALE! SALE! AUGUST 8TH - 10TH Large Ripe Cantaloupe occupancy permits needed for a soft re-opening in March or April of next year. More was ecstatic when he received word of the award, calling it “terrific news,” and says he has no doubt that they will hit their mark. “We have a number of grants that are pending, including a couple that are a hundred thousand dollars,” he said. “Basically, we’re going to come in with the money, it’s just a matter of when.” That doesn’t mean they can rest easy. More is quick to point out that the folks who award the big grants take a close look at how many local dollars are being contributed to the cause. ”Every nickel that we bring in from local businesses just helps us in the eyes of the granting foundations,” he said. “How much the community supports your project is critical.” As for the bidding process, Randy Dixon, operations superintendent for Coos Bay, said that the city will be making a recommendation on a winning bid during the next council meeting on Aug. 6. Until then, they cannot release who came in with the lowest bid or details of the bid.

C M C M Y Y K K C M C M Y Y K Bandon WESTERN WORLD Sports Editor: John Gunther K SPORTS B1 • Bandon Western World Thursday, August 8, 2013 Living the dream Oregon to Boise State, to Arizona State, to Colorado and back to Oregon, the father would wear the team’s jacket wherever he went. As Helfrich worked his way up the coaching ranks, dad attended every game he could. Helfrich said his dad “wore out” the early 5 a.m. flights out of North Bend airport traveling to his games. A few years ago while checking out one of Helfrich’s games at Arizona, Mike Helfrich passed away in Tucson. When asked how proud his dad would be of his office now, Helfrich visualized his dad sitting in the corner of his office with a smirk on his face, embarrassed and awed at the same time. It’s the type of mentality his dad had that Helfrich is trying to impart on his players now. “He’d be proud, he’d be ecstatic, and at the same time he’d tell me what I was doing wrong,” Helfrich said. “It epitomizes what I want to be and I think what a lot of people should try and aspire to be. “Parts of him will be reflected in everything we do.” Helfrich comes home to visit now for his mother, Linda. She is in poor health now, and while she may not be as strong as she once was, Helfrich can’t think of anyone else better suited to deal with it. “I know a lot of tough people, but my mom is by far the toughest person I know,” Helfrich said. “She’s inspirational; she’s awesome.” Helfrich and his wife, Megan, have two kids Max, 6, and Maggie, 3. Helfrich’s brother John married his wife’s sister, with the two now sharing in-laws. When he does come to Coos Bay about two to three times a year, he always tries to take in the beach and has also looked into possibly getting a summer home down here. As a teenager with his buddies, Helfrich was an oldschool hip-hop fan and used to throw in cassettes of rap artists like NWA, Kool Moe Dee, Eric B. and Rakim, Kurtis Blow. While he won’t cop to wearing any kind of B-Boy gear, Helfrich would throw down a cardboard box and break dance with his buddies. He even happily admitted to playing Milli Vanilli. Floyd Montiel, Helfrich’s good friend from high school, Oregon Ducks: Marshfield grad Mark Helfrich takes over in Eugene By George Artsitas Bandon Western World EUGENE — Mark Helfrich has no problem admitting he has his dream job. The new head football coach at Oregon has got his nameplate on the corner office of the palatial new athletic operations building and has been given the reigns of the burgeoning national empire that is Ducks football. But for the living pride from Oregon’s Bay Area, it’s the people of Coos Bay and the way they helped along the way that makes forgetting his roots impossible. “You’re around people that are just solid to the core, hard working, fun people,” Helfrich, 39, said. “The blue collar mentality. We have a lot of fancy stuff but if you don’t work hard, it doesn’t matter. “A lot of people I grew up around worked really hard and earned everything they got.” Growing Up Born in Medford, Helfrich moved to Coos Bay when he was 3 years old and graduated from Marshfield High in 1992. “I had such a great time,” Helfrich said. “Every memory I have about Coos Bay is great and positive. I have a lot of great friends that I still talk to to this day.” His high school senior year, Helfrich was the salutatorian, starting quarterback and student body vice president. Outside of school, Helfrich did the typical Coos Bay outdoor stuff with his dad Mike on the weekends; clamming, fishing, hunting, crabbing. His father was a mainstay around Coos Bay even after Mark moved and was not hard to spot. Michael Helfrich was an offensive lineman at Oregon before transferring to Southern Oregon and was — as most Division 1 linemen — a massive man. While Helfrich said they didn’t have many “touchyfeely” kind of conversations, his dad literally wore on his huge frame how proud he was of his son. While the son bounced around coaching jobs from Photo by Mark Ylen, Albany Democrat-Herald Oregon Coach Mark Helfrich watches practice before the Rose Bowl game against Wisconsin. See video and a photo gallery at theworldlink.com Western World file photo Mark Helfrich plays with his nephew Joe following Arizona State’s 2002 win over Oregon at Autzen Stadium. Mark Helfrich took over the starting quarterback job at Marshfield as a sophomore and kept it for the rest of his high school career. ■ See Helfrich, B4 Carpenter captures Tenmile Open at Lakeside Local lakes: Largemouth bass fishing out at Tenmile Lakes in Lakeside has remained good.

Glass Ply Volvo in/out, on 541-269-0293 C M Y C M K B4 • Bandon Western World • Thursday, August 8,2013 Y K Community Helfrich ■ from Page A1 had Helfrich as the best man in his wedding. Those two, along with a couple other buddies would drive around, hold their own dunk contests and home run derbies between games to try and stay out of trouble in high school. For Montiel, who was a wide receiver when Helfrich was quarterback and the current Marshfield softball coach, Helfrich is just a stand-up guy. “He brings out the best in people,” Montiel said. Career ascent Helfrich wasn’t always a quarterback. As a middle school player, weight restrictions made Helfrich too heavy to be quarterback. He settled for being a tight end. On his way into high school, he personally asked his head coach Kent Wigle if he could try to be quarterback. He was met with no argument from his coach and a year later, as a sophomore, Helfrich was starting. After Helfirch started varsity as a quarterback, he and Wigle would sit down on Sundays at his home near Allegany on the Coos River. Wigle wanted to make sure he didn’t discourage or embarrass Helfrich coming up as a young quarterback. Helfrich contends that it was “because I was bad.” For the next 20 years, Wigle made it a tradition that the entire team would come to his house and watch film every Sunday. “That’s probably where my angling towards coaching began,” Helfrich said. “I had the great fortune of playing for a lot of old-school type coaches that were hard-nosed and disciplined but at the same time they loved you. I’m forever blessed for that fact.” After getting an offer to walk-on at Oregon, Helfrich chose instead to play his college ball at Southern Oregon, figuring he had a better chance of getting on the field. After being injured as a junior and senior, Helfrich wanted to pursue medical school for orthopedics and even was accepted to some schools. When an opportunity to go to Austria to play and coach professionally for the Vienna Vikings sprang up, he decided to stay in football. A year later he moved back to Oregon. The day he got back, a job opened up as a graduate assistant for Oregon. Helfrich admits it was “pure luck,” but it started the “cascade of good events” to get him where he is today. The new chapter in his career starts Aug. 31 with the Ducks’ season opener against Nicholls State. He has two legitimate Heisman candidates in Marcus Mariota and Thomas. De’Anthony Helfrich has talent and speed to spare at his disposal. They’re the betting favorite to win the Pac-12 title and play in the Rose Bowl or — as every Duck fan hopes and dreams — BCS National Championship game. It’s his dream job and Helfrich knows how rare it is to have an opportunity like that. “There’s places that have it and places that don’t,” Helfrich said. “(This is) a place where you can win it all.” Who has seen the wind? WindFest success The Port of Bandon celebrated its sixth annual WindFest on Saturday and Sunday along the boardwalk and at the port’s Old Town Marketplace. Hundreds of people strolled the boardwalk and visited the dozens of vendors set up for the occasion. Mother Nature cooperated by providing plenty of wind both days, but that didn’t deter a steady stream of visitors. Above, vendors set up their wares at the port’s annual WindFest on Saturday afternoon. Left, the popular charlie freak band performs to an appreciative crowd in front of the port’s covered picnic shelter on the boardwalk. HWY 101 - 2001 N.
