A solemn shout-out to our area restaurants, and to everyone suffering through these times, whatever the cause.

Today, Thursday December 17, 2020 is our last day of Dine-In for the 2020 year.

Note that, per the Governor, things are going to be a little tight around here for the next couple weeks.

Please remember that our local businesses are under strict regulation during these times. A little patience will go a long way right now.

Thank you, fellow Garibaldans.

Per Governor Kate Brown's order announced November 13th 2020, starting Wednesday, November 18th through Wednesday,

Tassi O'Neil and the team at the Tillamook County Clerk's Office still have 20 days to certify the results. As it stands, I solidly sit in Garibaldi City Council's second open seat. Assuming all the signatures line up, I will wind up serving our fishing village as a councillor for the next four years.

Centuries from now, history books, classes, and anthropologists will discuss this election season. After traversing all those peaks & valleys, we have arrived. I happily owe a million and 249 "Thank Yous" to everyone who helped me fulfill a dream of following in my family's footsteps in serving our community. To those who didn't get to meet me in person but still took the chance, I owe you a debt of gratitude. Since actions speak louder than words, I will bring my all, day in and day out to help our city to be the best "authentic fishing village" it can be.

As we know, our City has many beautiful treasures yet to uncover, and many foothills to climb in order to discover & recover them. We'll want to share some of those prizes with the world. Other riches, we'll want to keep for ourselves. It's going to be quite the adventure, and I'm looking forward to the hike.

Onwards, together.

City Councillor-elect

Thank you, Garibaldi, Oregon, for electing me to serve our town on the Garibaldi City Council. Many things to do, and little time to do it.

Election Day has (finally) arrived.
We, too, are equal parts exhilarated and exhausted.

Remember to drop your ballot off at the ballot box along the sidewalk by the Garibaldi Fire & Rescue.

And, thank you for considering me to serve both you and our incredible fishing village as a member of City Council. Hoping for the opportunity to do some good things.

- Katie

PS: Happy 3rd birthday, Otis! (And in two weeks, Happy Welcome-to-the-Family Day)

A truly powerful message of safety from the fire chiefs of Tillamook County, as well as from several of our emergency services heroes, 95% of which are volunteers with day jobs [Source: video].

Incredible.

Please take a moment to hear and see what they have to say.

The Oregon Coast is a beautiful and rugged landscape where dramatic scenery and the powerful Pacific Ocean meet. While exploring the Oregon Coast offers limi...

Who am I to argue with the writer of this?

Confession: I used to argue with her when I was little.

I invite you to join me in voting for Katie Findling for Garibaldi City Council. I personally assure you that she is more than qualified for this position. Katie was

The replacement sign is looking good, Tim!

I know you're tired & weary, but please remember: If they're willing to sn**ch signs and spam our mailboxes with Photoshopped flyers from a candidate you're not even running against (file that under 'crazy things friends do for each other'?), then you must be doing something right. Many 'somethings' right. Because of those 'somethings' right, we are that much closer to putting the city back "right."

Folks from 12th St. to Halverson Lane have been inspired to stand up, speak up for themselves, and be held accountable because of you. I wouldn't be running if you didn't encourage me not hesitate to be the change I wish to see. Thank you, Tim & Jeanna.

November 3rd is coming. It is also Otis' birthday. That in and of itself has to be a good sign, right?

For Garibaldi.

Reminder: If you have not yet dropped off your ballot, use the ballot drop box when you do. In Garibaldi, the ballot drop box is located just south of the Fire Department on 6th St. on the west side of the road, in front of their parking lot.

"People should not mail their ballots after Tuesday, Oct. 27. Drop boxes are available throughout the county." - Tillamook County Clerk Tassi O’Neil

The Tillamook County Clerk’s Office provided an election update during a board of commissioners meeting held Wednesday, Oct. 21. Ballots were mailed out in the county on Oct. 14.

I'm not crying. You're crying.

Thank you, you.

Good morning, Garibaldi,

I have had a few requests for more info on my day job. Here is the link to my LinkedIn profile. It contains my resume, and allows for a print-able version.

For those that do not know, LinkedIn is essentially Facebook for work professionals (but, don't tell that to the users. They get cranky over Facebook comparisons).

9 days to go.

A big shout out to my mother for helping me to stuff each envelope and add a stamp, all at her kitchen table.

Coming soon to all of Garibaldi.

Thank you, in advance, for allowing me to introduce myself in such a traditional matter in such times.
