Two local firefighters, Byron Brown and Walter Dyer, are get-ting ready to climb almost 800 feet of stairs to raise money for a little girl named Lilli Skinner-Trippe, who was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive leukemia at just eight months old. It’s part of the annual Scott Firefighter Stair Climb, which

organizes local fundraisers to climb 69 flights of stairs - in full gear - at the Columbia Center in Seattle on March 11, 2012. The top climbers can make it in 11 minutes. But even the fit-test participants had a hard time last year, said Byron Brown. “It’s fun, but it’s intense. We just pace ourselves...we’re not setting any land speed records.” To prepare, the

Lyons firefighters climb stairs to raise funds for blood diseasesTwo local volunteers train for the Scott Firefighter Stair Climb, collect cans and organize a

“Fill The Boot” collection to support The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society

Residents and business owners in Detroit are resuming efforts to distinguish the town as a stop-ping point for bicyclists coming

north from Estacada, along Hwy 46 and down Breitenbush Rd. To do that, they’re working with state and local agencies to designate the 70 mile scenic hwy as an official bike route. The route will be called the Estacada/Detroit Lake Bikeway and the Detroit Lake Bikeway Committee wants to integrate the cycle-friendly concept into area businesses - with bike ac-cessible hotels and stores that carry replacement equipment. “We want visiting cyclists to say ‘Wow, they get it’,” said Sarah Miller, bike path orga-nizer and manager of The Lodge at Detroit Lake. “We want them to see a community that respects

riders and rider safety.” Financially, their efforts could bring an economic boost to the area. “We already have a lot of services available,” said Jes-sie Kiefer , manager at Cedars Restaurant.

men outfit themselves with the 50lbs of gear they normally wear during a fire. Walter Dyer has been work-ing out at the Stayton Fire Station #82 and Byron Brown has been building his cardio at the Lyons Fire Station. They’ll also visit the US Bank tower in Portland (with 40 flights of stairs) at least twice before the event. They’re hoping to make it up the 69 flights at Columbia Center in Seattle in under 30 minutes. The event raises funds through sponsorships of the individual climb-ers. Byron Brown and Walter Dyer have a goal of $1,000 com-bined. So far, they have raised $690 - with hopes to surpass their goal this year. “We’re firemen and when there’s a good cause, it challenges us,” said Byron Brown. “We do it for the kids with leukemia and lymphoma. The little problem that we have training is nothing compared to the problems they have.” Last year, over 1,500 firefighters from 281 different departments raised a record

$930,000 for blood-cancer research and patient services. Part of that came from Byron Brown and Trevor Leseman, who raised about $1000 combined.

Locals remember Chuck’s Fine Foods Last week, we printed this photograph of a thriving grocery/restaurant that used to be in Gates. Turns out, Chuck’s Fine

Foods was a popular place. Here’s what two of our local readers had to say about

the historical site:

Esther Elkins of Aumsville, formerly Esther Challender of Mill City: “What a surprise to see that! I have so many good memories of that place, and I never thought I’d see it again.” Esther worked at Chuck’s Fine Foods as a waitress in 1951, when one side was a restaurant and the other side was a bar. “People came from all over just to eat there. It was all made from scratch, home style cooking by Oli-ver and Della Willis - and hands down the best restaurant coffee I’d ever had.” Bob Layman of Mehama (Detroit resi-dent from 1949-52): “As teenagers living in Detroit during the building of the De-troit Dam, we passed Chuck’s Fine Foods frequently and usually stopped in for a

coke or milkshake and excellent french fries. I was one of few students that had a car and could drive to Chucks several times a month with my school friends, when gas was only 19 cents a gallon. The owners (Oliver and Della Willis) present-ed us (Berneice and Bob Layman) with a wonderful knife carving wedding gift on June 18, 1955 when we exchanged wed-ding vows. Great food! Great friends! Great place to grow up!” Bob Layman said that Chuck’s Fine Foods was located across from the cur-rent Minto Dam Build site, on the former pull-out on the north side of Hwy 22, where the construction crew is building mounds of rocks taken from the river. He’s not sure if the highway was gravel when Chuck’s was there.

Do you have any memories of Chuck’s Fine Foods you’d like to share? Let us know! What happened after that, and what is the legend of Diamond Lil?

Why do we make such a bid deal about dental health? Dental disease is one of the most common preventable diseases we see in our companion animals. It’s not only painful - but in our small ani-mals, it can lead to infections of other parts of the body including the kidneys, liver, brain and heart valves. In horses, poor occlusion can cause malnutrition and weight loss because the animal is not able to properly chew food. Unlike some procedures, such as a spay or neuter, dentistry is not a one time fixes all procedure. Rather it is part of an ongoing wellness and pre-ventative plan for your pet.

Get 20% off dental services in February at Ark Animal Care

At Ark Animal Care, we are excited to help you prevent disease in your animal by offering 20% off all dental proce-

dures for the whole month of February. This includes anesthesia, any antibiot-ics that might be needed, prophylactic cleaning and polishing, any extractions that might be needed and any pain med-ications that might be needed if extrac-tions are performed. The discount also applies to any elec-tives added to the anesthesia such as an IV catheter or pre-operative blood work. So as not to leave out our equine cli-ents, this same offer will apply to all equine dental work, including the farm call to come out and perform the den-tistry or floats. Our goal is to help make dentistry as af-fordable as possible - and dental month is another way we try to help fit this im-portant health aspect into your budget. Space is limited; offer good February, 2012 only. Reserve your space at 503-897-6004.

Each year the Second Grade classes at Gates Elementary host the Valentines Postal Service where parents, siblings and fellow students can send notes and even Sees Candy to any student in the district. Valentines are dropped off at one of the many special boxes at the school with the students name, class number, teachers name, and which

school listed on the envelope. The Sec-ond Graders (led by teachers Teri Mo-berg and Jenny Longfellow) then sort and stack while learning the ins and outs of the postal service. It takes a couple days for the love note to get from say, a niece at Gates to an auntie at Santiam, but rain or shine...it gets there.

Friday marked the last home game of Santiam’s 2012 basketball season with special honors given to the Senior athletes. It was a good night for the Wolverines all around. The men’s team nipped the visiting Culver Bulldogs in a tight game ending 56-50. The Lady Wolverines, true to their history, clearly out-shined Culver with a win 55-22, maintaining their ranking of #3 for 2A schools state wide. The Wolverines played Western Mennonite Tuesday night, however full score information was not available at time of printing. You can catch their last league game of the season this Friday as they take on the Kennedy Trojans in Mt. Angel.

The North Santiam River may drop back into shape later this week. It has been high and off color for two or three weeks, so there has been little driftboat or fishing traffic. Some hardy and hearty kayak people have enjoyed the big waves and some of the little tributaries that are not normally runnable. The forecast now (it may change in a day or two) is that the flow will allow fishing and driftboat trips on February 11. It is common for the Engineers to refine the forecast be-cause of snowmelt changes. Spring is nearly here. Buds and new leaves are not yet emerging, but they will soon. Steelhead and salmon are indeed starting to come over Willamette Falls, but the big numbers will only occur when the tempera-ture, volume, clarity, and natural timing is just right. So far, we have 1,354 new steel-head over the Falls at Oregon City. Some of those steelhead are hanging around their usual drifts, and more will be arriving soon. A First Aid and CPR class is available on February 18 in Mehama starting at 9am. The class is certified and will provide certificates that are approved by the Oregon Marine Board and there will be an emphasis on riv-er emergencies. Please call Bill Sanderson at 503-897-3301 or email to [email protected] if you are interested. RSVP is required and the cost is a bargain. Steelheaders Salem Chapter meets on Feb. 21, 7pm at Keizer Community Center. Visi-tors are welcome. North Santiam River Guides Association meets on February 22, 6pm at Neufeldt’s Restaurant in Aumsville. Planning for the “Learn the River’ trip on March 6 from Green’s Bridge to the I-5 Santiam Rest Stop. Boaters may bring their own boats and follow experienced leaders, and other people may ride along with club members in their boats. Info: 503-897 3301 North Santiam Watershed Council meets on February 9 (this Thursday) at 7:00 p.m. at Stayton Community Center. Among the river topics that will be discussed are the Stout Creek Restoration project and the Learn the River trips.
