Measures of Bandon’s future 

BANDON — In addition to deciding 

who will be the next mayor or city councilor, 

Bandon voters are being asked to 

cast their vote on two ballot measures. 

They include: 

• Measure 6-145: A non-binding vote 

intended to gauge public opinion: “Do 

you support an expansion of the Bandon 

Marsh National Wildlife Refuge boundaries 

by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife 

Service?” 

• Measure 6-146: Forms a new park 

and recreation district, the Bandon 

Community Swimming Pool Recreation 

District.

Bandon Marsh 

The non-binding vote on the proposed 

expansion of the Bandon Marsh 

Wildlife Refuge was put onto the ballot 

by members of the Coos County 

Watchdog group, started by Rob Taylor 

of Bandon. 

Taylor and others, including several 

landowners with property within the 

proposed expansion area, contend the 

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service intends to 

take away valuable farm land against the 

wishes of landowners, a contention the 

USFWS denies.

Man’s bail reaches halfmillion 

for rape charges 

By Amy Moss Strong 


BANDON — A Bandon man faces sex abuse 

charges following a report from the Coos County 

Sheriff’s Office that he allegedly sexually abused a 

young girl. 

At about 5:24 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 14, Coos 

County Sheriff’s deputies responded to Bay Area 

Hospital in Coos Bay to a report of a possible sex 

abuse victim in their emergency room, according to 

Sgt. Pat Downing with the Coos County Sheriff’s 

Office. The victim, a girl younger than 10 years old. 

As of Monday, Steven Ray Perkins, 28, was charged 

with first-degree sex abuse, first-degree sodomy and 

first-degree rape. 

Perkins was transported to the Coos County jail, 

where he was booked and lodged and is being held on 

$500,000 bail, Downing said. 

Downing confirmed that Perkins is the older 

brother of Raymond A. Perkins, now 24, who is serving 

a 30-year prison sentence for the murder of Dr. 

Judith Elman of Bandon in April 2002. 

Bandon Marsh and the 2011 restoration 

of the Ni-les’tn Unit was the largest tidal 

salt marsh restoration project in Oregon 

and doubled the acreage of tidal marsh 

habitat in the Coquille estuary. 

“The USFWS already has more land in 

its control than it can adequately care 

for,” Taylor said. “Our county is already 

economically depressed. This conversion 

and loss of productive farm land only 

serves to create more economic damage.” 

Don Chance, another highly vocal 

opponent, has said the USFWS has been 

keeping its plans from the public to avoid 

outcry. 

“There have been more meetings 

about the Bandon Marsh expansion outside 

of the area than within the area,” 

Chance said. “The ultimate goal is for 

Fish and Wildlife to take complete control 

of it.” 

Taylor said although the vote is nonbinding, 

a no vote will send a message of 

nonsupport. 

USFWS Bandon Marsh Manager Dave 

Ledig said there is much misinformation 

about the proposed expansion. 

“That misinformation puts fear into 

people’s minds and makes people feel 

State cuts 

local school 

budgets 

By Amy Moss Strong 


BANDON — The Bandon School District will 

receive approximately $200,000 less from the state 

this year because of the continued downward trend in 

enrollment. 

Superintendent Diane Buche updated the board at 

its recent meeting that the district’s October enrollment 

is 717, down from 750 in June of last year, and 

compared to 762 in September 2011. But the number 

the state uses to calculate its portion of funding for 

Bandon is less than 700 because the district’s 50 

kindergartners are counted as 25 students due to their 

half-time status. 

“That’s not good news,” Buche said, “our funding is 

seriously impacted.” 

Board member Robin Koch asked what other school 

districts are doing in the face of declining enrollment. 

The North Bend School District is working on a fourday 

week, although enrollment is up there, Buche said, 

and enrollment is up slightly in the Coquille district. 

But enrollment is down in the Coos Bay, Port Orford 

and Gold Beach school districts. 

“It’s all over,” Buche said. “There still aren’t any 

enough family wage jobs to keep families coming to the 

area.” 

The BHS junior class has the most students, with 

74, while the second grade has the least amount of students, 

at 46. 

Buche also updated the board on the replacement 

of the Harbor Lights Middle School roof. The first 

round of bids were rejected because the submitted 

bids did not meet the project’s specifications. A new 

request for proposals has been reopened and the district 

hopes to award the project within the next few 

weeks. 

The HLMS gym leaks during rainy weather, and the 

RFP calls for a Duro-last roof that will overlay the current 

roof, with the work to be completed by Dec. 31. 

The roof repair will be paid for with bond money from 

the $1.5 million bond voters approved in May 2011. 

The bond also paid for the district track to be resurfaced 

and striped and that work is now complete and 

the track is open to the public. 

Some of the district’s bond money also will be used 

to help construct the decking and handrails for the 

new playground equipment at Ocean Crest 

Midwife defends her practice 

By Tyler Richardson 


BANDON — A broad smile sweeps across twomonth-old 

Pergonis Fisher’s face once she recognizes 

Marcene Rebeck’s voice. 

Her plump cheeks force her eyes shut as she kicks 

her feet in excitement inside a small apartment. 

“Oh my God,” Rebeck, 59, says. “Isn’t she the 

cutest thing?” 

Pergonis is one of over 300 babies Rebeck helped 

“catch” — a term she uses to describe her practice of 

midwifery because she feels the woman doesn’t get 

enough credit. 

While Pergonis’ home birth went as routinely as 

Rebeck and the Fisher family had hoped, it was the 

circumstances after the delivery that were out of the 

ordinary for the midwife with more than 30 years 

experience. 

Just a couple hours after Pergonis was born in a 

tub filled with water on her living room floor, a 

sleepless Rebeck walked into the Coos County 

Courthouse in Coquille, to be arraigned on criminal 

negligent homicide and second-degree manslaughter 

charges.

places well in CB 

BANDON — Fourteen 

members — five returning 

and nine new speakers — of 

the 2012 Bandon High 

School Speech Team competed 

in the South Coast 

Invitational speech tournament, 

held Oct. 12 at 

Marshfield High School in 

Coos Bay. 

The team of Jeneveve 

Winchell and Tyler 

Wiprud topped the competition 

in dual interpretation 

with “Oz.” In addition, 

Wiprud took first place in 

dramatic interpretation 

with “Zits.” Wlnsvey 

Campos placed second in 

oratory with “Arrogance” 

and Stephanie Gordon 

placed second in dramatic 

interpretation with 

“Things You Can’t Tell by 

Looking at Her.” 

First-year speakers in 

the novice division competed 

with other first-year 

speakers. Emma Wampler 

captured first place with an 

originally written oratory 

called “Trust.” 

Second-place speakers 

in dual interpretation were 

Autumn Moss-Strong and 

Darby Underdown with 

“Snow White and the 

Little Men.” The team of 

Emma Wampler and Leo 

McGeehon placed third in 

dual interpretation with 

“The Story of Untied 

Norm,” while Rose Garrett 

rounded out the individual 

“Our family 

serving your family” 

event awards with a third 

place in oratory with 

“Making an Impact.” 

This is the second year 

that the BHS Speech team 

has competed in debate. 

Five teams debated on this 

month’s public forum 

topic, “Developed nations 

have the moral obligation 

to mitigate the effects of 

climate change.” In the 

open division, the team of 

Gordon and Wiprud placed 

third, while in the novice 

division, the team of Sonia 

Havill and Lily Trigg placed 

third. 

In the bus on the way to 

the competition, Wiprud 

assured the nervous firstyear 

speakers, “we are a 

very diverse group. I don’t 

know all of you very well 

yet but by the end of the 

speech season we will be a 

family.” 

When asked how the 

final round in dramatic 

interpretation went, 

Wiprud replied, 

“Stephanie was amazing!” 

“Although speech team 

members compete directly 

with each other, they are 

also a team and very supportive 

of one another,” 

coach Ellen Howard said. 

The first Sweet 

Speeches of the season will 

be held at 7 p.m. Thursday, 

Nov. 8, at the Sprague 

Community Theater in 

Bandon City Park.

Former Bandon teen allegedly made tapes of child 


BANDON — Coos County 

District Attorney Paul Frasier said a 

Bandon teen charged in a child sex 

case was allegedly making personal 

video recordings of a juvenile girl. 

Frasier said Jesse Cole Housego, 

18, was not trying to sell the alleged 

tapes and that nobody else is 

believed to have taken part in the 

filming. 

Housego was arrested on Oct. 4, 

appeared in court on Oct. 5 and was 

re-arraigned Oct. 10. Housego was 

indicted by a grand jury on three 

counts of using a child in a display 

of sexually explicit conduct, three 

counts of second-degree encouraging 

child sex abuse and three counts

of invasion of personal privacy. 

The indictment alleges that 

Housego possessed and controlled 

a recording of sexually explicit conduct 

involving a child for the purpose 

of arousing and satisfying 

himself or another person. 

The Bandon Western World does 

not print the names of sexual abuse 

victims. 

Housego was brought to the Coos 

County jail last Thursday after he was 

arrested in Lane County. 

On three separate occasions 

between Sept. 26 and Oct. 17 of last 

year, Housego allegedly recorded a girl 

naked and in a sexually-explicit manner, 

according to the indictment. 

Frasier said the allegations were 

CCB# 23563 

initially reported in May of this year 

after Housego had moved to Lane 

County. 

Housego’s bail is set at $250,000, 

and he is being held in the Coos 

County jail. 

Frasier said his office was 

unaware of the allegations until 

Housego was brought to the jail. 

Housego will be back in court for 

a release hearing Oct. 18 at 8:30 

a.m. He also has a change of plea 

hearing scheduled for 8:30 a.m. 

Oct. 31. 

Using a child in a display of sexually 

explicit conduct is a Ballot 

Measure 11 offense and carries a 

mandatory minimum sentence of 

70 months if convicted.

Protect your 

property 

During the night of 

Oct. 2 a chain-saw carving 

of a pelican about two 

feet high, a Christmas 

present from my wife, 

was taken from the front 

yard of our home in 

Bandon. 

If anyone should happen 

to see it, or it is 

offered to them for sale, 

please contact the 

Bandon Police 

Department, who have 

been notified of the theft. 

Apparently there are 

people in our area who 

will take decorative items 

from a person’s yard, 

probably for resale, and I 

suggest that Bandon 

homeowners take appropriate 

steps to protect 

their property. I wish I 

had. 

David Mickle 

Bandon 

Pool would 

provide benefits 

After reading what all 

the city council candidates 

want for the city of 

Bandon one chord struck 

with me. They all want to 

see a healthier Bandon — 

not only the health of the 

people but also of the 

business community. 

This is great and if they 

would all (whomever is 

elected) work together for 

this goal, I am sure we can 

see fruits of their labor in 

the future. 

It should be noted that 

the Bandon Swimming 

Pool would be a great 

starting point for this 

very same goal. Not only 

would it mean important 

temporary construction 

jobs — bringing in money 

to local business via labor 

buying food, coffee and 

other daily needs, but 

there could be a provision 

put in the final construction 

contract that stated 

that all construction 

materials (where possible) 

had to be purchased 

from local vendors. I 

recently finished a tour of 

duty in a place where it 

was deemed best for the 

community that as much 

as possible local content 

in any work would take 

precedence. Why can’t 

Bandon do the same? 

The long-term health 

benefits from a swimming 

pool can not be measured 

in monetary terms alone 

but in the quality of life 

that use of the pool could 

bring our young people 

and our elderly. 

Swimming is just a great 

way to stay fit. This has 

been proven in countless 

studies done all over the 

world. If you look at the 

results of the summer 

Olympics you can see that 

swimming has become a 

major part of sports. 

When I was a kid the reason 

that Mark Spitz won 

so many medals is not 

only that he was a great 

athlete but also because 

most people went into 

track and field. That has 

changed. Now swimming 

is recognized as not only a 

great sport, but people 

who swim tend to be in 

good, healthy condition 

for life. You can swim as 

long as you live. Mark 

Spitz even thought about 

making a run at a spot on 

the team well into his 50s! 

Don't disregard a ben- 

efit until you have seen 

that the benefit doesn't 

work. If our young people 

have a way of channeling 

their energy into swimming 

instead of smoking, 

drinking and negative 

behavior, then be it 

school, sports, or just 

going and hanging out at 

the pool, isn’t this better 

than riding around in a 

car having time for this 

negative behavior? 

I would just like people 

to think about how they 

react to the swimming 

pool the same way they 

react to the vote for city 

officials: Vote for the person 

that you see helping 

Bandon keep our citizens 

healthy, happy and at 

work. 

A vote for the pool is a 

sure way of doing exactly 

that.

Chlorine is a 

carcinogen 

I would like to add a 

comment to the writer 

who mentioned exposure 

to toxic chlorine in an 

indoor swimming pool: 

According to the Merk 

Manual and the OSHA 40 

SARA 120 Hazardous 

Waste Handbook, chlorine 

is a carcinogen, and 

emergency procedures 

should be taken when 

exposed via swallowing, 

inhaling or through the 

skin. 

Surely there are 

enough toxic chemicals in 

the air we breathe, the 

foods we eat and the 

drugs we take, without 

immersing ourselves in 

them via a swimming 

pool. I wouldn't expose 

myself as a senior citizen 

to this chemical, let alone 

expose any children to it. 

I have a chlorine filter in 

my shower head, because 

the chemical is absorbed 

through the skin and the 

steam increases the 

amount inhaled, just like 

a closed, heated pool 

room would. 

Linda Frick 

Bandon 

Vote no on 

pool measure 

A pool for Bandon? 

What about security for 

Bandon? 

Meth use is up; marijuana 

is throughout our 

schools; crime, domestic 

violence, theft and drug 

use is in the papers on a 

regular basis and throw in 

a murder or two. 

I think a pool is a nice 

idea from good-hearted 

people that mean well, 

but this should come 

down the road. I don’t get 

“In journalism, there has always been a tension 

between getting it first and getting it right.” 

how anyone could turn 

down taxes/bond measures, 

etc. to support our 

hard-working police 

department who are 

deserving of our support 

and then support 

increased taxes and bond 

measures to support a 

pool, a luxury item. 

That is criminal to me! 

We need to get our priorities 

in order. Safety for 

Bandon should come 

first! Then a pool, if you 

must. 

Vote NO for the pool.

No on 

proposed 

expansion 

— Ellen Goodman, syndicated columnist, 1993 

The U.S. Fish & 

Wildlife Service recently 

released the 

C omprehensive 

Conservation Plan for the 

Bandon Marsh Refuge. 

Simultaneously with the 

release of the CCP, the 

service mailed out the 

National Refuge Planning 

Update No. 3 in 

September, which was 

what most residents 

received. 

In this current issue of 

the update, the original 

Bandon marsh expansion 

of 4,500 acres is noticeably 

missing in 

Alternative C. That was 

one of three alternative 

plans for the marsh and 

the expansion was in that 

third choice. On the last 

page of the update The 

service has an email and a 

mailing address for public 

comment on this new 

alternative, which is due 

by Oct. 22. However, the 

service is asking the public 

to comment on what is 

in the new planning 

update without mentioning 

their plans in the CCP. 

This is deceptive on the 

part of The USFWS. 

The entire expansion 

of the Bandon marsh is in 

chapter 1 on page 22 of the 

CCP. The services has 

relabeled the planned 

expansion, but make no 

mistake, it is the same 

plan as the original 

Alternative C. The 

planned expansion is now

in a Land Protection 

Planning process. The 

service will study options 

for expanding the 

approved refuge adjacent 

to and upstream from the 

existing boundary. 

USFWS is determined to 

acquire every inch of the 

original planned expansion 

until they own most 

of the Coquille Valley. 

Tell The Service “NO” 

to any expansion of the 

Bandon Marsh, not one 

inch, not one more acre. 

Tell them “NO” to any 

placement of a protective 

zone around the marsh 

and/or the adjoining area. 

And, tell the USFWS that 

they must return the current 

Bandon Marsh 

Refuge over to the county’s 

Board of 

Commissioners and then 

the service must leave the 

county.

Vote for 

Democrats 

America is in a fight for 

its democratic life. It is 

critically important that 

you vote for Democrats in 

the November election to: 

• Protect your right to 

vote. Republican governors 

and Legislatures in 15 

states are attempting to 

restrict the constitutional 

voting rights of of the 

poor, the elderly and 

minorities. 

• Protect and improve 

Social Security and 

Medicare. Under a 

Republican administration, 

these would be privatized 

and vouchered, 

making the funds available 

to hedge funds and 

private insurance companies. 

The dollars that you 

pay into these funds and 

receive when you retire 

would no longer be protected 

for you. 

• Protect women’s 

reproductive rights, right 

down to the birth control 

pill. 

• Protect your right to 

unionize. Unions brought 

the 40 hour work week, 

worker safety measures 

and a living wage. 

• Protect and improve 

the commons: The roads, 

bridges, schools that are 

built by our collective 

taxes, that we all use and 

cannot afford to build by 

ourselves. 

Don’t let your guard 

down just because you 

live in Oregon, which still 

protects these things. 

American rights must 

apply to all Americans no 

matter where they live. 

When Democrats are in 

charge, everyone has 

rights. When Republicans 

are in charge, rights are 

limited to the few, a group 

to which you may not 

belong. 

Elect Democrats this 

November and keep 

America available to all. 

Your vote matters: Mail it.

Pay the piper 

To Dawn W. Vonderlin 

and her passionate effort 

to avoid paying for her 

speeding: She lives in 

Bandon. Are we to believe 

she doesn’t know the 

speed limit in Langlois? 

How many times has she 

been through there? She 

was speeding, she knows 

the configuration of the 

signs if she’s lived here for 

any length of time and she 

got caught. Get over it, 

pay your fine and slow 

down. 

Our police officers and 

state troopers have a 

tough job. And more 

importantly, if you want 

to speed you have to pay 

attention to your surroundings 

and be ready to 

pay the fiddler if you get 

caught.

Waist Aweigh 

Challenge set 

The final Bandon 

Waist Aweigh Challenge 

has been scheduled for 

Tuesdays from Oct. 23 to 

Dec. 5. 

“So often people see 

weight programs as temporary 

diet changes to 

meet a goal weight or for a 

special event,” said Mary 

Kemp, a certified community 

nurse and one of 

the program’s organizers. 

“Bandon Waist Aweigh 

challenges participants to 

change their concept of 

dieting and intermittent 

exercise to establish a 

healthy lifetime pattern 

of exercise and nutrition.” 

The challenge will 

continue through a holiday 

week, so organizers 

are considering it a “survivor 

event” and especially 

encourage previous 

participants to take part. 

Registration is $30 and 

the first meeting will be 

held Tuesday, Oct. 23, at 

the Bandon Public Library 

Sprague Community 

Room, with weigh-ins 

scheduled from 3-4 p.m. 

and the strategy sessions 

set for 4 p.m. 

The activities, 

resources and strategy 

sessions are coordinated 

through Optimum Health 

and Fitness and OSU 

Extension, and made 

possible by the Trust 

Management Grant 

through Southern Coos 

Health Foundation.

Help with 

Medicare 

enrollment 

by BCHC 

BANDON — 

Oregonians with 

Medicare need to review 

their plan options and 

make any annual benefit 

changes by Dec. 7. The 

timeframe ensures there 

is enough time to process 

any changes so that coverage 

begins without 

interruption on Jan. 1, 

2013. 

The Senior Health 

Insurance Benefits 

Assistance program, a 

federally funded program 

available to help Oregon’s 

more than 630,000 

Medicare beneficiaries, 

has counselors available 

statewide at 1-800-722- 

4134 to provide free, 

unbiased one-on-one 

assistance during annual 

enrollment. 

In Coos County, 

Bandon Community 

Health Center coordinates 

the SHIBA efforts with 

volunteers located in 

Bandon and Coos Bay. 

This month, seniors 

will receive their Annual 

Notice of Change letter 

from their insurance 

company. The letter will 

outline any changes to 

their benefits or costs in 

2013, including whether 

their current plan will be 

available. 

“It is important that 

people with Medicare 

watch the mail this month 

for important mailings 

from their current plan,” 

said Linda Maxon, executive 

director of Bandon 

Community Health 

Center. “This is the annual 

opportunity to compare 

the cost and coverage 

their current Medicare 

Advantage plan and prescription 

drug plan to 

other plans and decide if 

they want to switch plans. 

“SHIBA counselors can 

save beneficiaries hundreds 

of dollars a year by 

completing a detailed plan 

comparison using the 

online plan finder on 

Medicare.gov,” Maxon 

added.

Rebeck 

■ from Page A1 

Coos County District 

Attorney Paul Frasier 

alleges that in 2011 Rebeck 

provided “substandard” 

care to a newborn by not 

seeking medical attention, 

although, he said, there 

were multiple indicators 

that showed something 

was wrong. 

Frasier said the baby 

ultimately died from septic 

shock caused by an infection 

four days after it was 

born. 

“It’s unbelievable,” 

Rebeck said of the charges 

while driving on U.S. 

Highway 101 near Port 

Orford. 

“It’s the most unbelievable 

roller coaster of emotions 

anyone can experience.” 

As she navigates a 

small, gray, stick-shift 

pickup on the windy highway, 

Rebeck discusses her 

philosophy on midwifery 

and the reasons she continues 

to practice despite 

the charges. 

“I have faith in the 

process,” she said. 

Traditional birthing 

Rebeck considers herself 

a traditional midwife, 

meaning she practices 

without a license and 

believes the birth process

Elementary School. This 

week, district director of 

operations Hiemer Kiefer, 

along with other employees, 

have been tearing 

down portions of the old 

playground equipment, 

which was rotting and 

posed a potential danger to 

students. 

That playground, 

known as Castle Crest, 

was built by community 

members with donations 

20 years ago in memory of 

two teenage brothers who 

died in a car accident. The 

plaque in their honor will 

be replaced once the new 

equipment is installed. 

The student body at 

Ocean Crest has been participates 

in a yearly jogathon 

and for the past 

three years have dedicated 

the money to new playground 

equipment. Ocean 

Crest Principal Liz Olive 

said the kids have raised 

$43,000, and that, with a 

donation from Bandon 

Dunes Golf Resort and the 

money and labor the district 

is putting in, will 

complete the project. The 

new playground, which 

includes weather-resistant 

components, will be 

installed Oct. 22. While the 

renovations are under way, 

the upper portion of the 

existing playground will 

remain open, as well as the 

play shed. The new playground 

is expected to be 

complete by Oct. 26. 

In other business, the 

board: 

• Heard from Trent 

Hatfield’s class on the 

forestry challenge field trip 

that six BHS students 

attended. A story on the 

trip will be published in a 

subsequent issue. 

• Heard from Darcy 

Grahek on a proposal for a 

district greenhouse that 

would provide learning 

opportunities for students. 

Grahek wrote a grant and 

the project was tentatively 

awarded $30,000 from the 

Wild Rivers Coast 

Alliance. The board discussed 

the idea and Grahek 

mentioned other grant 

possibilities. She will bring 

more information to the 

board at a future meeting. 

• Approved the hiring of 

Sue Dodrill, head dance 

coach; Sharon Haga, head 

track and field coach; 

Preston Devereaux, assistant 

football coach; and 

Tiffany Freitag, JV girls 

basketball coach and 

HLMS girls basketball 

coach. 

A board work session is 

set for 6:30 p.m. Monday, 

Oct. 22, in the district 

cafeteria. 

should not be “interfered” 

with by modern medicine 

and unfamiliar hospital 

staff. She said giving birth 

is one of the safest things a 

woman can do, and she 

encourages her clients to 

work with their bodies and 

minds to get their babies 

out rather than relying on 

hospitals. 

“A majority of people 

have a fear of giving birth,” 

she said. “Your body is 

made to give birth. 

Hospitals cause so much to 

go wrong because they 

interfere with the birth 

process.” 

It’s that fear, Rebeck 

said, that drives expectant 

parents to hospitals and 

away from the privacy of 

their own home. She 

laughs at the notion that 

midwifery is for “hippies” 

only, or that there is 

underlying religious beliefs 

attached to the process. 

Her philosophy is a 

simple science that has 

proven successful since 

she began training in 1982 

after a “huge revelation” 

during her own home 

birth. 

She constantly visits 

the mother and the baby 

before each birth, monitoring 

their heartbeats, 

providing vitamins to tone 

the mother’s uterus and 

educating the family on 

what to expect. After the 

birth she lets the mother 

and baby bond for around 

20 minutes while she 

that a line on a map is a 

threat when there is no 

threat,” he said. 

Ledig would like people 

would call him or Roy 

Lowe, project leader for 

the Oregon Coast 

National Wildlife Refuge 

Complex to find out 

what’s fact or fiction. 

“I understand people’s 

fear,” Lowe said. “But we 

have no authority on what 

people can or can’t do on 

their land. By drawing the 

line, it means I can go out 

and ask people if they are 

interested in selling and if 

they say no, that’s the end 

of our involvement.” 

The current plan 

USFWS is seeking comments 

on does not 

include the proposed 

expansion. That has been 

separated from the plan to 

allow for greater public 

involvement. 

The public will have a 

chance to comment on 

the proposed expansion 

and the USFWS will conduct 

socioeconomic and 

other analyses to evaluate 

expansion options within 

the study area. The 

USFWS will only purchase 

land from willing 

sellers at fair market value 

and the entire process 

could take years, if it happens 

at all. 

“Ninety-five percent 

of historic tidal marshland 

in the Coquille estuary 

has been lost to diking 

and draining,” Lowe said. 

“The most recent reclamation 

doubled the 

amount of tidal marsh 

habitat, even though it 

was a low percentage of 

reclamation.” 

Ledig said there are 

long-term benefits to 

helping fish and wildlife. 

“It does take lands out 

of agricultural production, 

but it puts it into fish 

and wildlife production 

and that also has economic 

benefits, including

Rebeck returns to check 

on the mother and newborn 

for three days after 

the birth and she does 

checkups at two weeks, 

four weeks and six weeks. 

“She constantly monitored

Back on Highway 101, 

Rebeck, dressed in a colorful 

blouse and brown skirt, 

becomes a little somber as 

she talks about continuing 

to practice after losing the 

first newborn in her career. 

Her voice trails off as she

relationship with the 

baby’s parents. She quickly 

changes the subject to the 

seven new clients she says 

she will help give birth 

between the end of this 

month and January of

“I told all my ladies, ‘It 

might be a good idea to get

It is clear the death of 

the newborn and the subsequent 

charges have taken 

their toll on Rebeck, but as

calls a “black Alabama 

midwife,” it also is evident 

she has accepted them as 

part of her job. 

“She always said that if 

you are going to be dealing 

with life, you are inevitably 

going to be dealing with 

death,” she said. “But it 

never prepares you.” 

A short while after 

turning off the highway, 

Rebeck pulls into a long 

gravel driveway in a 

secluded part of Arizona 

Beach. Two-year-old 

Sterling Voshall, whom 

Rebeck helped deliver, 

runs into her arms and 

leads her by the hand into 

his house. 

Sitting on the couch is 

Colleen Ellis and her 6week-old 

boy, Malachite 

Voshall. Rebeck helped 

deliver Malachite in Ellis’ 

living room, and she is 

back to do her final checkup. 

Rebeck picks up the 

child and begins speaking 

to him in a baby’s voice as 

she checks his heartbeat. 

Ellis, who said she always 

wanted a home birth, 

chose Rebeck as her midwife 

because she helped 

deliver her husband, 

Woods Voshall, 25 years 

ago. 

“If I wouldn’t have 

found Marcene, I would 

have done it alone,” Ellis 

said of giving birth. “It 

would have been scary 

without her. I couldn’t 

imagine doing it without 

fishing and recreation and 

the related services,” 

Ledig said. 

But he encourages 

people to read factual 

documents for themselves 

about the proposed 

expansion or to call. 

“We’re hear to answer 

their questions,” Ledig 

said. “Feel free to give us a 

call.” 

Bandon Swimming 

Pool District 

The formation of a 

swimming pool recreation 

district would provide 

a tax base to build 

and maintain a pool in 

Bandon. The taxing district 

would cost property 

owners 48 cents per 

$1,000 of assessed valuation. 

For example, if a 

home’s real market value 

is assessed at $100,000, 

that property owner 

would pay $48 a year to 

fund the pool district. 

The pool has been on 

Bandon’s wish list for 

her.” 


DA has concerns 

Rebeck said the support 

from the community has 

been overwhelming since 

she was charged in July, 

and the thought of not 

continuing to practice 

never crossed her mind. 

“I still totally believe in 

what I’m doing,” she said. 

Frasier agreed that a 

majority of the births 

Rebeck has handled have 

turned out well, but he said 

his office still has reservations 

with her practicing. 

“We have our concerns,” 

he said. “She probably 

does fairly well in 

most cases. It’s the cases 

where stuff goes to hell in a 

hand basket that we are 

having problems with.” 

Frasier declined to go 

into details of the case, but 

he did say that he has 

found “more than two” 

home births involving 

Rebeck where serious 

problems occurred. Frasier 

asked Coos County Circuit 

Court Judge Richard 

Barron to order Rebeck to 

stop practicing when she 

was arraigned Aug. 2, but 

Barron declined to do So. 

Frasier said there is 

nothing he can legally do to 

make Rebeck stop practicing 

because she is unlicensed. 

Oregon and Utah 

are the only states that 

don’t require midwives to 

carry a license to practice, 

Frasier said. 

many years. In 2005, resident 

Mike Sterling 

formed a nonprofit group 

to fund construction of a 

pool through donations 

and grants. The group has 

raised $400,000 so far 

and the city of Bandon 

has offered $600,000 in 

urban renewal money to 

help build the pool. 

The pool committee is 

leasing a piece of land on 

11th Street from the 

Bandon School District 

for $1 a year. Cost to build 

the pool is estimated at $3 

million, but the design 

can be changed and nothing 

is “set in stone,” 

Sterling said. 

Opponents, such as 

resident Rose Romano, 

said she likes the idea of a 

pool, but doesn’t believe 

it’s something Bandon 

can afford. Romano has 

researched other cities 

across the U.S. with public 

pools and found that 

some of them struggle 

financially to keep the 

facilities open. 

“A pool is not a vital 

service,” Romano said, 

adding she knows people 

in Bandon who can barely 

pay their bills. 

“How can they pay ‘a 

few cents more’ for a 

pool?” she asked. 

A proposed annual 

budget has been prepared 

by board member Dave 

Reed based on actual 

costs by cities of similar 

size that have public 

swimming pools. The 

projected amount that 

would be raised each year 

by the taxing district 

would pay not only to 

build the pool, but also 

would more than adequately 

maintain it as 

well. 

“If we don’t build the 

pool now, we might lose 

the opportunities we now 

have to use the school 

district’s land and the 

city’s offer of urban 

renewal money,” Sterling 

said.

Although this is the first 

case of its kind in the state 

that he knows of, Frasier 

said he feels confident he 

has strong evidence that 

Rebeck’s “substandard” 

care caused the newborn’s 

death. 

“I have not received any 

evidence from the defense 

that would cause me to 

believe these charges are 

inappropriate or the opinions 

of the experts are 

incorrect,” he said. 

Mothers who trusted 

Rebeck with their babies’ 

lives continue to be outraged 

over the charges as 

Rebeck’s change of plea 

hearing nears Oct. 22. 

“It’s pretty shocking 

what is going on,” said 

Sandra Anderson, who had 

two children delivered by 

Rebeck. “She cares about 

people. You definitely want 

to battle when somebody is 

attacking her.” 

Rebeck said she doesn’t 

think about the possibility 

of spending the majority of 

what’s left of her life in 

prison. Instead, she said 

she wants to focus on 

delivering healthy babies 

and being thankful that 

she is still able to practice. 

“A majority of people 

have a fear of birth, just like 

they have a fear of death,” 

she said. “I have not let fear 

change me. In life there is 

fear, just like in life there is 

death.”

Bandon nets best 

volleyball victory 

Western World 

For one night, 

Bandon’s volleyball team 

put everything together. 

The Tigers dominated 

visiting Myrtle Point last 

week, beating the Bobcats 

25-19, 25-18, 25-14. 

It was just their second 

league win, but was a 

great sign for the future. 

“It was more than 

amazing,” said Bandon 

coach Courtney Freitag, 

though she added that it 

wasn’t a big surprise for 

the coaching staff. 

“We knew all along 

that the girls had this in 

them,” Freitag said. 

With the Tigers 

already assured of not 

reaching the postseason, 

since Glide has already 

clinched the lone Class 

3A playoff berth for the 

Sunset Conference, any 

win to build confidence 

for the future is a good 

thing. Bandon returns 

nearly the entire team 

next season. 

Against the Bobcats, 

Emily Ramos had 30 digs 

and 20 good passes in 

serve receive, Freitag 

said. Cheyenne Young 

had seven aces and 21 

assists, Haley Freitag had 

12 kills and four aces and 

Raelyn Freitag had 17 

digs, eight kills and seven 

aces. 

The Tigers had great 

serving in the win.

service errors,” Courtney 

Freitag said. “For us, 

that’s a slam dunk.” 

The other thing the 

Tigers did was play consistently 

the entire 

match. 

“They kept the 

momentum,” Freitag 

said. “Even when Myrtle 

Point went on a run, they 

would not get their heads 

down. 

“Everybody played 

great all the way around.” 

The consistency was 

missing during many of 

the team’s earlier matches. 

Freitag and assistant 

Mariah Vierck have seen 

the potential during the 

season. 

“At any given time, we 

are the worst and the best 

team in the league,” 

Freitag said. “We could 

have beat anybody 

tonight. I really believe 

that.” 

The Tigers weren’t 

able to maintain that 

momentum Tuesday 

night, falling to leagueleading 

Reedsport 25-19, 

25-20, 25-10. 

Raelyn Freitag had five 

kills, 10 digs, four blocks 

and two aces. Ramos had 

17 digs and Alanna Smith 

had three aces. 

The Tigers visit Glide 

today and finish the season 

with matches at 

Coquille on Tuesday and 

at home against Gold 

Beach next Thursday. 

Cross country team 

wins another race 

Western World 

With just over a week 

to go before the district 

meet, Bandon’s girls had 

another impressive cross 

country win over the 

weekend. 

The Tigers dominated 

the Myrtle Point 

Invitational, scoring 19 

points and having four of 

the first eight finishers. 

Brookings-Harbor was a 

distant second with 54 

points. 

Freshman Sarah Cutler 

won the 5,000-meter 

race in 20 minutes and 52 

seconds. Fellow freshman 

Aida Santoro was second 

in 21:33. Hailey Iverson 

was sixth and Weston 

Jennings, another freshman, 

was eighth. Claire 

Ledig rounded out the 

team scoring with a 12thplace 

finish. 

The district meet is 

Oct. 27 at Crow, and none 

of the district’s other 

teams have challenged 

the Tigers in any of the 

meets this season. 

While Bandon’s girls 

appear a safe bet to qualify 

for state, the boys 

appear to be in a tight race 

including several different 

schools. 

At Myrtle Point, 

Bandon finished second 

behind Brookings- 

Harbor, but was in a tight 

battle with Myrtle Point 

and Pacific, two of the 

district’s other teams. 

The top two teams and 

top five individuals from 

the district meet advance 

to the Class 3A-2A-1A 

state meet at Lane 

Community College. 

Tyler Wiprud led the 

Tigers with a 12th-place 

finish. Christian Lathan 

was 13th, Colton Jennings 

16th, Daniel Undell 19th 

and Drayton Jennings 

21st. 

In addition to Myrtle 

Point and Pacific, the district 

race could be close 

between Crow, Yoncalla 

and Oakland. 

Bandon’s last event 

before the district meet is 

the noncompetitive 

Brownie Run at Florence 

today.

Trophy trout are still in local lakes 

Local lakes: Cathy 

from Ringo’s Lakeside 

Marina told us that rainbow 

trout fishing out at 

Tenmile Lakes has 

remained good. One 

angler reported catching 

a 20-inch rainbow from 

the county boat dock. She 

also told me largemouth 

bass fishing has been 

slow, but anlgers targeting 

yellow perch have 

been catching some nice 

black crappie up to 12 

inches in length. Tenmile 

has had a die off of their 

crappie population in 

recent years. As the rainy 

season approaches look 

for coho salmon to eventually 

enter the Tenmile 

watershed which includes 

Siltcoos and Tahkenitch 

lakes. 

Recently stocked 

Empire Lakes has been 

the hot spot for shore 

anglers looking to catch a 

trophy trout. The 2pound 

trout have been 

biting nightcrawlers 

fished off the bottom and 

little Cleos in nickle green 

or nickle blue colors. 

COQUILLE 484 N. CENTRAL

Local rivers: Scott 

from the Chetco Outdoor 

Store told me that the 

Chinook have been moving 

into the estuary of the 

Chetco in good umbers in 

recent days. Anglers 

trolling the bay have been 

catching fish on herring 

or anchovies. Shore- 

based anglers are 

hooking fish 

from the Finger 

Jetty on 

Kastmasters and 

Cleos. 

Chinook fishing 

continues to 

be pretty good in 

the Rogue Bay as 

Indian Creek 

Hatchery fish 

start to return. 

Coho fishing in 

the bay has been 

good, but most of 

the fish are wild, and must 

be released. Boat anglers 

upriver are having success 

side drifting roe for 

Chinook. Casting spinners 

or fly fishing can be good 

this time of year as long as 

river levels are low.

Braves spoil Tigers’ homecoming 

By John Gunther 


BANDON — Bandon’s 

football team missed 

another chance for a win 

last Friday, falling to visiting 

Reedsport 46-22 on 

homecoming. 

The Tigers had their 

best scoring night of the 

season, but were undone 

by a couple of late 

turnovers. 

“We had a couple big 

plays go against us,” said 

Bandon coach Silia 

Polamalu. 

The Tigers scored first, 

then rallied from a twoscore 

deficit to tie the 

game in the third quarter 

before Reedsport scored 

the last three touchdowns. 

Bandon had an efficient 

drive on the game’s 

opening possession. 

Quarterback Shawn 

Peters and fullback 

Chance Garrett provided 

tough running yards and 

Bandon took advantage of 

a pair of penalties by the 

Braves before Tim Hunter 

burst outside 14 yards for 

a touchdown and Troy 

McClurg added the extra 

point kick. 

Reedsport quickly 

responded with a touchdown, 

but the Tigers 

stopped the extra point 

run. 

The Braves scored two 

more touchdowns before 

Bandon had a 74-yard 

touchdown drive in the 

closing minutes of the 

first half. Thomas and 

Garrett both had a few big 

runs and Garrett bulled 

his way across the goal 

line from 4 yards out with 

just a few seconds left in 

the half. 

Bandon then forced a 

turnover on Reedsport’s 

second play of the third 

quarter, with Hunter 

recovering a fumble. 

This time, Peters 

scored the touchdown on 

a quarterback keeper 

from 14 yards out. He 

added the conversion run 

to knot the score at 22. 

But Bandon’s final 

three possessions ended 

with a fumble and two 

interceptions. 

Polamalu liked a lot of 

what he saw from his 

team, which is mostly 

filled with varsity newcomers. 

“We went without a 

huddle for the first time, 

and tried to loosen them 

up a bit,” he said of a nohuddle 

offense the Tigers 

unveiled during the game. 

“We were able to get some 

success offensively. That 

was good to see.” 

Garrett rushed for 113 

yards and Peters added 65 

yards carrying the ball for 

Bandon, despite a 

Reedsport defense 

stacked to stop Bandon’s 

option attack. 

“It was good to have 

some success against a 

five-man front,” 

Polamalu said. 

“Chance ran extremely 

hard. And Shawn, he’s

getting better and better.” 

Unfortunately for the 

Tigers, as much as the 

offense improved, the 

Tigers wore down on 

defense against 

Reedsport’s physical 

attack. 

Matt Rohde and Wade 

Hutchinson both ran for 

more than 100 yards for 

the Braves. 

Bandon remains winless 

on the season, and 

the schedule only gets 

rain should allow fall 

Chinook to enter the Elk 

and Sixes rivers soon. 

Fall Chinook fishing on 

the lower Coquille River 

was good last week. 

The salmon were on the 

bite as the low pressure 

system moved on to the 

South Coast. Coho fishing 

is starting to pick 

up with the best 

fishing from U.S. 

Highway 101 

Bridge to Rocky 

Point. As of last 

week, 14.9 percent 

of the 1,500 

wild coho quota 

had been met. 

Bank anglers 

have been landing 

some nice 

Chinook up 

Seven Mile 

Slough on live 

sand shrimp and roe under 

a bobber. 

Fishing for coho 

salmon has picked up this 

past week in Coos Bay. 

Wild coho are being 

caught from the Coos Bay 

bar all the way up into 

Coos River. The hot spots 

tougher, with home 

games against Coquille 

on Friday and Glide next 

week before the season 

ends at Gold Beach on 

Nov. 2. 

Polamalu did say playing 

Reedsport was good 

preparation for Coquille 

and Gold Beach, which 

both employ power running 

attacks. 

“They’re going to give 

us the same type of 

game,” he said. 

have been near the Empire 

boat ramp and SOMAR. As 

of last week, 34 percent of 

the 1200 wild coho quota 

had been met. 

Area shellfish: As of 

Monday morning, crabbers 

on Bandon’s Weber’s 

Pier were still catching 

limits of Dungeness crab. 

Early mornings have been 

best regardless of the 

tides. 

Boaters are still catching 

easy limits of 

Dungeness crab in 

Bandon and Coos Bay.
