Despite the holiday, we were busily working over the weekend along with the Auxiliary Communication Services (ACS) volunteer group! We all got together on Sunday to complete their annual strategic planning and goal setting. An extra big “thank you” to Mike, Daron, Dean, Doug, Rich, and Randy for donating their valuable time!

30 Years of Watching Out for Lincoln County and You

With this current weather event it seems only appropriate to reflect on how easy it is with today's technology to send notices, keep folks informed and out of harms way.

My predecessor, Mr. Jim Hawley, spent over 30 years advocating and monitoring the weather for the community members of Lincoln County...I've had many a community member personally reflect on their midnight or early morning calls from Mr. Hawley letting them know the current river levels of the Siletz so they could be ready to evacuate if needed.

Jim and his counterpart Mary in the Emergency Management office were quite a team and truly set the bar high for advocating and taking care of our communities before, during and after emergency events.

Here is one of my absolute favorite photo's of Jim, in what is still today, our County Emergency Operations Center, where he worked his magic on the telephone lines keeping everyone safe and informed.
