Mill City and Detroit explode in a celebration of Freedom!

From watching fireworks while Detroit Lake gently laps at the shore to an all out party at

Kimmel Park - with live music and an amazing pyrotechnic display, nothing beats celebrating Independence Day in the North Santiam Can-yon. Volunteers from Stayton to Idanha made sure this year would be one to remember! A

special thanks to the Mill City Fourth of July Committee, Mill City Fire Department, and

Detroit Lake Recreation and Business Associa-tion. Here’s a glimpse at this past weekend’s

festivities!

Living the Small Town American Dream

Can’t get enough photos of all the great local events?

Have you checked out TheCanyon-Weekly.com yet? We took hundreds of photos this weekend, many more than we can possibly print. Professional and amateur photographers from up and down the Santiam Canyon contribute weekly - and now these photos are avail-able online for our readers! Missed the parade in Mill City? See the video on-line too! We’re also on Facebook .

As you celebrate - we do too! You may have noticed we distributed on Thursday this week, rather than our typical Wednesday. In order to prop-erly honor this important national hol-iday - and to spend time with friends, family, and community - we took Monday off too! (Our camera crews kept on clicking however...) Thank you for your understanding and pa-tronage! We remain steadfastly dedi-cated to serving our canyon communi-ties...Karen, Tim and Michelle

Elkhorn Fire Hall gets a facelift

The 26 year old fire station got a new coat of paint this weekend as part of ongoing maintenance from the Stayton Fire District. “We want to make sure that it stays in good shape,” said assis-tant fire chief Jay Alley. The station serves the North Fork area up to Shady Cove Campground, with seven North Fork resident volunteers, one rescue vehicle and one water tender. They average 15 service calls a year - most in the summer when the population doubles or even triples due to visitors.

Did you guess who’s car it was?

Last week, readers enjoyed a little lo-cal history about escapades in a 1956 candy apple red MGA in the submis-sion My First Car. Did you guess who wrote it? That’s right, it was Dr. Law-rence Barnes, a ten year canyon resi-dent and practitioner at Santiam Medi-cal Clinic in Mill City. He’s pictured below with the fabulous machine that led to so many adventures....

The river dropped into excellent condition this week, and very few people took advantage of the ideal conditions with scenic trips or fish-ing on the North Santiam. The few people out there on the water were rewarded with both a first class outdoor experience and also with solitude. That’s unusual this time of year, and we are not complaining. Many different birds are flying around, and kingfishers are noteworthy this month. We had an osprey dive close to the boat and catch a small trout. Dippers are dipping a lot. Eagles occasionally make low elevation fly-overs. Turkey buzzards have a big wing span and are soaring over meadows. They will move to the river banks after salmon spawn. Steelhead are laying in tail-outs and along-side ledges in some places in the middle river sections. There are large numbers of fish up-stream from Packsaddle Park, and large num-bers around Fishermen’s Bend and North San-tiam State Park. Many of my trips the last two weeks have been scenic raft trips, and many of the trips scheduled for the next several weeks are drift-boat fishing trips. Now that the river levels have dropped to normal, fishing success is probable. I have new rods, reels, and tackle to break in, and am enthusiastic about the chanc-es of catching both steelhead and salmon. Steelheaders Salem Chapter board meets on July 6 in Salem at Wholesale Sports at 6:30. Upcoming river activities will be discussed. Interested visitors are welcome.
