RR (03:19):
$299,000 just given out to 51 different charities in what a
seven county area.
Delores Pigsley, Chairman ofthe Confederated Tribes
of Siletz Indians.
That's a phenomenal amount ofmoney.
Delores Pigsley, Chairman (03:36):
It is, and we're very proud to be
able to do it.
And it's all because ofChinook Winds Casino Resort and
all the people like you whovisit the resort and contribute.
I'm a contributor also, butit's really rewarding to have
all those people that arevolunteers that do all the work,
(03:57):
especially now.
RR (03:59):
You are giving money to a lot of nonprofits, correct?
Delores Pigsley, Chair (04:03):
Correct.
They're not all nonprofits,like Chemewa Indian School is
not a nonprofit, it's an Indianschool, but we can give to
Indian organizations thatcontribute to better living and
habitat for tribal people.
RR (04:21):
Are there special rules and regulations that you follow or
your criteria you put down,Delorse, that uh it helps people
fill up the application?
Delores Pigsley, Chairman (04:32):
Yes, we have a board, uh, the
charitable board.
I think there are seven peopleon the board.
They get all of theapplications and we received 101
applications.
We were able to fill 51 ofthose applications.
But there are some rules andthey review every single
(04:52):
application and they make arecommendation to the tribal
council.
And we can add or we can takeaway, but we generally follow
their recommendations.
RR (05:04):
Talk about adding, you did add a lot of money this go
around for food.
Delores Pigsley, Chairman (05:09):
We did.
We added um doubled all therequests for food banks and
cleaners.
And we also declared Novemberan emergency month for food
distribution because we didn'tknow what the SNAP program what
was going to happen with it.
But I understand today that thegovernor, I got a notice on my
(05:33):
phone that uh everybody that'son the SNAP program would get
full SNAP benefits for thismonth.
I don't know beyond this monthwhat's gonna happen, but we're
hoping that the government opensup and we get back to what uh
used to be normal.
RR (05:54):
On a government-to-government
relationship, and that's whatyou really have with the tribe
and with the the state, thefederal to county.
How does that work?
Delores Pigsley, Chairman (06:03):
Well, it it uh actually works very
well.
We meet with the city ofLincoln City regularly.
We meet with the countycommissioners, we have lots of
interchange with the federalofficials.
And some of us travel back toD.C.
We usually go about three orfour times a year just to just
(06:23):
to let them know who we are andwhat our needs are and kind of
what we would like to seehappen.
RR (06:30):
Uh you have been doing that since the be the restoration of
the tribe, correct?
Delores Pigsley, Chairman (06:35):
Yes.
RR (06:36):
And speaking of the restoration of the tribe, you
have a a significant event uhforthcoming next weekend, and
that is the Pow Wow.
Delores Pigsley, Chairman (06:44):
Yes, we have our we're celebrating 48
years of tribal restoration.
We were terminated in 1954 bythe federal government.
They determined we were nolonger Indian people.
And in 1970, November 1977, thetribe was restored.
And I was lucky to be on thatrestoration uh committee, and I
(07:08):
actually testified beforeCongress back in March of 1976.
And so um it's been a longhaul.
It's been very rewarding.
RR (07:20):
The restoration, what does that mean to Dolores Pigsley?
Delores Pigsley, Chairman (07:24):
Well, I grew up at Chamao Indian
School, and when the tribe wasterminated, um that really
didn't resonate with me.
We lived on the campus, we weresurrounded by Indians, we were
always Indians.
But what it meant when myhusband and I moved to Lawrence,
Kansas, he worked at theuniversity in Lawrence, I
(07:47):
applied for a job, and uh when Igot ready to go to work, they
said, Oh, you you can't workhere because you're not uh and
you're not recognized by thefederal government.
It was like, what?
And so I made it my issue towork towards restoration when we
moved back from Kansas in 1975.
(08:08):
Matter of fact, we moved backin August and I got elected in
in September in 1975.
So it was personal and healthcare was a big issue, education
was a big issue, we had receivedno tribal benefits whatsoever.
And the restoration committee,the most money we ever had was
$75 that we collected at ourcouncil meetings in Siletz.
(08:32):
And so that's what got usstarted.
And we had a lot of dedicatedpeople that are no longer with
us.
And so moving forward, weworked very hard to get funds
for the tribe to provideprograms.
We we're what they call aself-governance tribe.
We take all the money theBureau and Indian Health Service
(08:56):
has designated for tribalbenefits, and we uh contracted
all the money and hired our ownstaff instead of the Bureau
staff, and so we built ourselvesup to where we are today.
RR (09:10):
One of the things I think I enjoy uh uh the most attending
to Pow Wow is all of thepictures of all of the veterans
that go up on the under thescreen.
Delores Pigsley, Chairman (09:21):
Yes, and uh we owe our veterans a
lot.
Um my dad was a World War Iveteran, and my four brothers
were World War II, and threebrother-in-laws were World War
II, and so I have over 200nieces and nephews, and many of
(09:42):
them, including the women, haveserved in the military, so it's
very close to our heart.
RR (09:48):
And the Pow Wow sets off the holidays for me.
Delores Pigsley, Chairman (09:53):
Well, it's a beginning of yes, a very
busy period of time.
Matter of fact, I have to doall my Christmas shopping before
now because I can't quitesqueeze it in and it's so it's
very rewarding to see all thetribal members come here to
Lincoln City for our celebrationat Chinook Winds.
(10:14):
And we get to visit withfriends and other tribal people,
people from the community thathave supported us for a very
long time.
Zantello (10:23):
I'm Josh Zantello with Xantello Law Group, and we are
fortunate to have a number ofattorneys in our office that

missing.
RR (11:04):
A voice that has been heard for a long time in Lincoln
County, uh associated with theOregon Coast Community College,
no longer there, but now just ageneral helper throughout the
communities.
Guy Faust, welcome.
Guy Faust (11:19):
I am a retired gentleman farmer from Logsdon.
RR (11:23):
Retired gentleman farmer from Logston.
You uh just received acontribution or a gift from the
Confederated Tribes of SilatsIndians tonight.
Tell us about that.
Guy Faust (11:34):
Well, uh I have the title of President of Logson
Community Club, and we meetmonthly for potlucks, and we do
a lot of uh differentfundraising kinds of things, but
we're also when an emergencyhits, we become a an official
Red Cross receiving center.
And so what we're trying to do,what we've been doing for the
(11:57):
last, I don't know how manyyears, is building our facility.
And so now it's ADA accessibleand we've got um commercial
kitchen.
But what we were lacking iswe've got a propane, we've got
two small propane tanks, and ifthey were running full blast for
a couple days, then we'd beout.
(12:18):
And so we now have a 500,000gallon propane tank, thanks to
this let's drive.
We also had the Toledo highschool kids build us some
storage sheds.
We had no storage at all.
And now we've got shelves andlots of uh Costco totes that are
sitting empty.
Well, part of this grant alsowas to get emergency food.
(12:43):
And so about three-quarters ofthose of those totes will be
filled now.
Well, yes.
You want to hear that oneagain?
Well, like I said, a lot ofpeople I they ask me where's
Logston is, and and becausethey've never heard of it.
(13:04):
I could say, well, it's eightmiles east of Solett's if you
know where Solette's is.
But what I like to say is uhwe've got a country store, we've
got two gas pumps, we do haveour own zip code, and that's
pretty much Logston, but uh youcan go into the country store,
(13:24):
buy a t-shirt, and it saysLogson is not the end of the
world, but you can see it fromhere.
RR (13:32):
That's funny.
Now, you are also involved inuh Newport with the Rotary Club,
and that's what we reallywanted to get to and talk about
because you've got an activitygoing on right now that
culminates on December the 4th.
Guy Faust (13:46):
Well, yes.
Let me start with RotaryInternational.
There's like 46,000 clubsaround the world.
It's a large organization.
There's 16,000 just in theUnited States alone.
We're in District 5110.
There are 64 clubs in ourdistrict, but Rotary
International had five majorfocus areas that they
(14:10):
concentrated their efforts on.
One of them is an example ofthe health is eradicate polio
worldwide.
Well, a couple years ago, theycame up with a sixth, and that
sixth one was protecting theenvironment.
And so they've asked all theclubs to come up with an idea to
do something green, you know,go out and plant a tree or
(14:32):
insulate a house or something.
Well, what our club's doing iswe're working to get
microplastic off the beaches,but more than that, what we're
trying to do is create a modelbecause there's another ten
rotary clubs up and down theOregon coast alone.
And and so what we're trying todo is create a model to clean
(14:57):
the microplastic off thebeaches, and there's a guy up in
Seaside that invented thisscreen.
It's about the size of a table.
Uh, one person gets on one end,other person gets on the other
end, you scoop sand onto thisscreen, you lift it up, the sand
sips through the screen, butthe microplastic gets caught.
(15:18):
And so you can put that into abucket, and then we also have
these little sieves, and so theonly problem is these screens
only work when the sand's dry.
So we have a limited time to goout and do anything, and that's
so this coming summer in 2026,we'll be out in Newport every
day starting July 1, ending uhSeptember 9th.
(15:42):
And we go from 10 o'clock untilnoon, and we're at um Agate
Beach, that's where we meet, andwhat we've discovered is that
uh when you first start, it'sreally kind of fun, and there's
sort of a friendly competitionstarts between the different
(16:04):
groups because there would belike three people to a screen.
And and so it's fun for awhile, but after about an hour
and a half, the fun's gone.
RR (16:15):
You turn into work.
Guy Faust (16:17):
It starts feeling like work because you're lifting
and and but uh when they comeback afterwards, we put it all
all the microplastic together,we weigh it, we take a photo of
the group, and it's instantgratification because you can
just see what you picked upthere.
Unfortunately, you know, it'sjust a drop in the bucket.
RR (16:42):
You got a number of people that are involved in a
competition, though.
Guy Faust (16:45):
Oh yeah, yeah.
Well, let me finish up withthis thought is that what I tell
folks is I said, you know, yougo out there and you w you work
uh two hours of your life and uhyou got a little bit to show
from from it, but you know, it'snot even a drop in the bucket,
and the problem is worldwide.
That's one way to look at it.
(17:06):
The other way to look at it isyou just spent two hours of your
life removing microplasticthat's not going to be floating
around in the oceans for thenext hundred to a thousand years
long after you're dead andgone.
And so if you look at it thatway, yeah, it was worth it a
while.
And the people do get instantgratification.
(17:27):
But we have two targetaudiences.
Target audience number one iswe get a lot of visitors to the
Oregon coast in the summer.
And after they're throughshopping and after they're
through going to the touristsites and stuff, if they want to
do something green, we givethem the opportunity, they can
(17:48):
scan our little QR code and theycan go to our site and sign up
and be out cleaning up beachesthe very next day.
That's target audience numberone.
The other one is, especially onweekends, we're looking for
local groups.
And for instance, uh thissummer we had Taft elementary
school kids come a couple times.
(18:09):
We had the Solettes ValleySchool, we had the Altrusa Club,
we had different businesses.
But um basically what we did iswe paid them a hundred dollars
if they could get anywhere fromten to thirty volunteers to show
up.
But that also made themeligible for a thousand dollar
(18:31):
drawing.
And the way that the drawingworks is for every volunteer
they get, they get one ticket.
Well, the Taft Kids, they had30 kids that day.
They also get a ticket for uhevery pound of microplastic they
get off the beach.
And so on Jan or on December4th, we're gonna have a ticket
(18:51):
drawing, and somebody's gonnawin a thousand dollars.
And but again, this is thefirst year that we started this,
and what we really want to dois build it.
I saw a lot of clubs heretonight that I think should be
eligible or wanting to do it,like the Kids Zone in Depot Bay
and other ones, but that's whatwe're gonna be doing in early
(19:13):
December.

RR (20:14):
Now is the time to get the flu shot.
Dr. Ogden (20:16):
It is coming.
It is coming.
We say, you know, aboutSeptember, October time frame.
We want everybody to startthinking about it.
You know, there's always thosepeople who posit, depending on
when we start seeing the firstcases of flu, when it's most
advantageous to get that flushot.
(20:37):
We want about two weeks for ourbodies to start building up
those antibodies and really beable to perform at this the
highest uh level against whatwhatever influenza virus is
circulating this year.
But the most important thing,honestly, is not to try to be a
(20:58):
master of the timing, it's toget it at all, right?
That's that's what most of usshould strive to do.
And so if you get it a littleearly, right when it becomes
available, or if you get it alittle late in November after
the, just get it.
Just get it in your arm.
The flu vaccine has been aroundfor years and years and years
(21:20):
and years.
It is a very good vaccine thatmost years is a good match to
what influenza viruses arecirculating.
What we try to do is look andsee what has happened in the
southern hemisphere since theyhave the opposite seasons from
us, see what's circulatingbecause chances are that's
what's going to come our way.
(21:41):
And then each year themanufacturers make these
individual formulations.
And again, nothing's a hundredpercent.
I hear people argue all thetime with me that, oh, I don't
want to get that.
It doesn't really help thatmuch.
Well, yeah, it does.
It helps a lot in the fact thateven if it doesn't prevent you
(22:02):
from getting the flu, it mightprevent you from getting a
strong, deadly case of the flu.
And by the way, a ton morepeople die from flu than people
who are ever, ever aware of.
And they're not always justpeople who are the very young
and very old.
Oftentimes they are people thatwe least suspect.
(22:25):
So it can be deadly.
It is not something to bethought of as minor.
And if we can do something toprevent it and or to prevent it
from being as virulent as it is,we should do that.

RR (22:52):
Frank King, World War II veteran, welcome aboard.
Frank King, WW II Marine (22:56):
Glad to be here, Roger.
How's it going?
RR (23:00):
Now you you just uh finished uh talking to the high school
students up here at Taft HighSchool and and uh the community
about your time in service.
You're proud of that, right?
Frank King, WW II Marine (23:10):
Yeah.
So what'd you want from me?
RR (23:15):
Why?
Why are you proud of yourservice time?
Frank King, WW II Marine (23:19):
Well, I don't know.
I this is uh just anopportunity to talk to kids, and
uh I love doing that, and uhhave a big family, my god.
I've got uh great greatgrandchildren now.
I can't count all of them, youknow, but a lot of them.
(23:41):
And uh this is a good audiencetoday.
They uh very receptive and uhand uh I was surprised at the
attention and everything and thequestions.
It was it was a good session.
RR (23:56):
I enjoy the fact that the respect that I heard coming from
these students.
Frank King, WW II Marine (24:01):
What's that?
RR (24:02):
The respect I heard from these students.
Frank King, WW II Marine (24:04):
Yeah, and uh, you know, you hear so
much about uh the disrespect andthe antagonism and everything
like that, but this is uh a goodaudience, and uh and the
questions were good too, andthey were pretty in-depth and
giving everybody everybody anopportunity to share.
(24:25):
And uh uh I'm impressed by theaudience more than I were about
the principal people on thestage.
RR (24:33):
Yeah, I would have to agree.
I would even though the both ofus were on stage.
Frank King, WW II Marine (24:38):
Yeah.
Well, uh what was uh boy's namethat uh talked to the one who
was in Afghanistan?
I can't.
RR (24:52):
Yeah.
Frank King, WW II Marine (24:53):
I was impressed with the story and uh
and uh a recounting of thethings.
You don't hear very many uhpersonal accounts of Iraq and
Afghanistan and that sort ofthing.
And uh uh it's I don't think itwas the easiest thing in the
world for him to share thosethings because there's a lot of
(25:17):
stuff that uh uh you don't liketo talk about when you go into
combat and the results of it andeverything.
But he did an excellent job,yeah.
RR (25:27):
At 103, I believe.
What is uh Frank King's specialmoment that he will always
remember?
Frank King, WW II Marine (25:36):
Oh, sobered up, my life changed, and
life is good.
And uh that's about it.
RR (25:46):
You are very active at 103.
Frank King, WW II Marine (25:50):
Well, that comes about from uh I think
I work out uh quite a bit morethan most seniors.
I put in five days a week downat the fitness center, and uh I
work in the exercise room inthere three days a week and uh
(26:11):
uh in the swimming pool twice uha week.
So uh and I've been doing thatfor going on 20 years now, and
uh it keeps me going.
And uh as long as I can stayflexible, both my body and all
my muscles and my head, I'm uhI'm I'll be in pretty good
(26:36):
shape.
RR (26:37):
And your head, you have been a writer for years.
Uh you you were a writer foryears for The Statesman and for
other periodicals.
Frank King, WW II Marine (26:46):
Yeah, yeah, I I still do it.
I was doing a call for thesenior center newsletter there,
but they might belly up.
But uh I still compulsively sitdown and do a uh page with one
once in a while because whenthings start getting under my
(27:09):
skin, well I get to it and Istart writing.
Uh I don't get too antagonisticbecause uh or too controversial
because uh you don't want tolet your anger take over uh when
you're talking or when you'rewriting.
RR (27:30):
All of a sudden your bias begins to show.
Frank King, WW II Marine (27:32):
That's it.
And as long as I have a goodbig waste paper basket by my
computer, I'm in I'm in goodshape.
RR (27:42):
Of your time in the military, World War II, the most
memorable moment, Frank Kingwould say is what?
Frank King, WW II Marine (27:50):
Oh, it's hard to say.
Uh I think oh final parade atboot camp after after we got
through boot camp.
And uh that was a high pointbecause my god, I didn't know
(28:13):
some marine, you know.
Never thought I'd do it.
Straight 140 pounder, you know,and uh and got through it.
I disappointed because I didn'tqualify on the rifle, but I
shot expert with a 45 caliberhandgun with a cold automatic
(28:37):
and got the highest score in theplatoon with that.
But uh uh when you're a marine,you're a rifleman, primarily a
rifleman, and every marine has arifle.
And I didn't qualify a lot, andit was a source of source of
shame.
And uh kept fire and I only gotfire for record once.
(29:02):
But uh uh I finally made itthrough the Marine Corps when
the drill instructor shook myhand and and uh I left uh and I
was a proud man.
RR (29:16):
Well, tonight is a special night in Lincoln City,

$299,000 just given out to 51 different charities in what a
seven county area.
Delores Pigsley, Chairman ofthe Confederated Tribes
of Siletz Indians.
That's a phenomenal amount ofmoney.
Delores Pigsley, Chairman (03:36):
It is, and we're very proud to be
able to do it.
And it's all because ofChinook Winds Casino Resort and
all the people like you whovisit the resort and contribute.
I'm a contributor also, butit's really rewarding to have
all those people that arevolunteers that do all the work,
(03:57):
especially now.
RR (03:59):
You are giving money to a lot of nonprofits, correct?
Delores Pigsley, Chair (04:03):
Correct.
They're not all nonprofits,like Chemewa Indian School is
not a nonprofit, it's an Indianschool, but we can give to
Indian organizations thatcontribute to better living and
habitat for tribal people.
RR (04:21):
Are there special rules and regulations that you follow or
your criteria you put down,Delorse, that uh it helps people
fill up the application?
Delores Pigsley, Chairman (04:32):
Yes, we have a board, uh, the
charitable board.
I think there are seven peopleon the board.
They get all of theapplications and we received 101
applications.
We were able to fill 51 ofthose applications.
But there are some rules andthey review every single
(04:52):
application and they make arecommendation to the tribal
council.
And we can add or we can takeaway, but we generally follow
their recommendations.
RR (05:04):
Talk about adding, you did add a lot of money this go
around for food.
Delores Pigsley, Chairman (05:09):
We did.
We added um doubled all therequests for food banks and
cleaners.
And we also declared Novemberan emergency month for food
distribution because we didn'tknow what the SNAP program what
was going to happen with it.
But I understand today that thegovernor, I got a notice on my
(05:33):
phone that uh everybody that'son the SNAP program would get
full SNAP benefits for thismonth.
I don't know beyond this monthwhat's gonna happen, but we're
hoping that the government opensup and we get back to what uh
used to be normal.
RR (05:54):
On a government-to-government
relationship, and that's whatyou really have with the tribe
and with the the state, thefederal to county.
How does that work?
Delores Pigsley, Chairman (06:03):
Well, it it uh actually works very
well.
We meet with the city ofLincoln City regularly.
We meet with the countycommissioners, we have lots of
interchange with the federalofficials.
And some of us travel back toD.C.
We usually go about three orfour times a year just to just
(06:23):
to let them know who we are andwhat our needs are and kind of
what we would like to seehappen.
RR (06:30):
Uh you have been doing that since the be the restoration of
the tribe, correct?
Delores Pigsley, Chairman (06:35):
Yes.
RR (06:36):
And speaking of the restoration of the tribe, you
have a a significant event uhforthcoming next weekend, and
that is the Pow Wow.
Delores Pigsley, Chairman (06:44):
Yes, we have our we're celebrating 48
years of tribal restoration.
We were terminated in 1954 bythe federal government.
They determined we were nolonger Indian people.
And in 1970, November 1977, thetribe was restored.
And I was lucky to be on thatrestoration uh committee, and I
(07:08):
actually testified beforeCongress back in March of 1976.
And so um it's been a longhaul.
It's been very rewarding.
RR (07:20):
The restoration, what does that mean to Dolores Pigsley?
Delores Pigsley, Chairman (07:24):
Well, I grew up at Chamao Indian
School, and when the tribe wasterminated, um that really
didn't resonate with me.
We lived on the campus, we weresurrounded by Indians, we were
always Indians.
But what it meant when myhusband and I moved to Lawrence,
Kansas, he worked at theuniversity in Lawrence, I
(07:47):
applied for a job, and uh when Igot ready to go to work, they
said, Oh, you you can't workhere because you're not uh and
you're not recognized by thefederal government.
It was like, what?
And so I made it my issue towork towards restoration when we
moved back from Kansas in 1975.
(08:08):
Matter of fact, we moved backin August and I got elected in
in September in 1975.
So it was personal and healthcare was a big issue, education
was a big issue, we had receivedno tribal benefits whatsoever.
And the restoration committee,the most money we ever had was
$75 that we collected at ourcouncil meetings in Siletz.
(08:32):
And so that's what got usstarted.
And we had a lot of dedicatedpeople that are no longer with
us.
And so moving forward, weworked very hard to get funds
for the tribe to provideprograms.
We we're what they call aself-governance tribe.
We take all the money theBureau and Indian Health Service
(08:56):
has designated for tribalbenefits, and we uh contracted
all the money and hired our ownstaff instead of the Bureau
staff, and so we built ourselvesup to where we are today.
RR (09:10):
One of the things I think I enjoy uh uh the most attending
to Pow Wow is all of thepictures of all of the veterans
that go up on the under thescreen.
Delores Pigsley, Chairman (09:21):
Yes, and uh we owe our veterans a
lot.
Um my dad was a World War Iveteran, and my four brothers
were World War II, and threebrother-in-laws were World War
II, and so I have over 200nieces and nephews, and many of
(09:42):
them, including the women, haveserved in the military, so it's
very close to our heart.
RR (09:48):
And the Pow Wow sets off the holidays for me.
Delores Pigsley, Chairman (09:53):
Well, it's a beginning of yes, a very
busy period of time.
Matter of fact, I have to doall my Christmas shopping before
now because I can't quitesqueeze it in and it's so it's
very rewarding to see all thetribal members come here to
Lincoln City for our celebrationat Chinook Winds.
(10:14):
And we get to visit withfriends and other tribal people,
people from the community thathave supported us for a very
long time.

RR (11:04):
A voice that has been heard for a long time in Lincoln
County, uh associated with theOregon Coast Community College,
no longer there, but now just ageneral helper throughout the
communities.
Guy Faust, welcome.
Guy Faust (11:19):
I am a retired gentleman farmer from Logsdon.
RR (11:23):
Retired gentleman farmer from Logston.
You uh just received acontribution or a gift from the
Confederated Tribes of SilatsIndians tonight.
Tell us about that.
Guy Faust (11:34):
Well, uh I have the title of President of Logson
Community Club, and we meetmonthly for potlucks, and we do
a lot of uh differentfundraising kinds of things, but
we're also when an emergencyhits, we become a an official
Red Cross receiving center.
And so what we're trying to do,what we've been doing for the
(11:57):
last, I don't know how manyyears, is building our facility.
And so now it's ADA accessibleand we've got um commercial
kitchen.
But what we were lacking iswe've got a propane, we've got
two small propane tanks, and ifthey were running full blast for
a couple days, then we'd beout.
(12:18):
And so we now have a 500,000gallon propane tank, thanks to
this let's drive.
We also had the Toledo highschool kids build us some
storage sheds.
We had no storage at all.
And now we've got shelves andlots of uh Costco totes that are
sitting empty.
Well, part of this grant alsowas to get emergency food.
(12:43):
And so about three-quarters ofthose of those totes will be
filled now.
Well, yes.
You want to hear that oneagain?
Well, like I said, a lot ofpeople I they ask me where's
Logston is, and and becausethey've never heard of it.
(13:04):
I could say, well, it's eightmiles east of Solett's if you
know where Solette's is.
But what I like to say is uhwe've got a country store, we've
got two gas pumps, we do haveour own zip code, and that's
pretty much Logston, but uh youcan go into the country store,
(13:24):
buy a t-shirt, and it saysLogson is not the end of the
world, but you can see it fromhere.
RR (13:32):
That's funny.
Now, you are also involved inuh Newport with the Rotary Club,
and that's what we reallywanted to get to and talk about
because you've got an activitygoing on right now that
culminates on December the 4th.
Guy Faust (13:46):
Well, yes.
Let me start with RotaryInternational.
There's like 46,000 clubsaround the world.
It's a large organization.
There's 16,000 just in theUnited States alone.
We're in District 5110.
There are 64 clubs in ourdistrict, but Rotary
International had five majorfocus areas that they
(14:10):
concentrated their efforts on.
One of them is an example ofthe health is eradicate polio
worldwide.
Well, a couple years ago, theycame up with a sixth, and that
sixth one was protecting theenvironment.
And so they've asked all theclubs to come up with an idea to
do something green, you know,go out and plant a tree or
(14:32):
insulate a house or something.
Well, what our club's doing iswe're working to get
microplastic off the beaches,but more than that, what we're
trying to do is create a modelbecause there's another ten
rotary clubs up and down theOregon coast alone.
And and so what we're trying todo is create a model to clean
(14:57):
the microplastic off thebeaches, and there's a guy up in
Seaside that invented thisscreen.
It's about the size of a table.
Uh, one person gets on one end,other person gets on the other
end, you scoop sand onto thisscreen, you lift it up, the sand
sips through the screen, butthe microplastic gets caught.
(15:18):
And so you can put that into abucket, and then we also have
these little sieves, and so theonly problem is these screens
only work when the sand's dry.
So we have a limited time to goout and do anything, and that's
so this coming summer in 2026,we'll be out in Newport every
day starting July 1, ending uhSeptember 9th.
(15:42):
And we go from 10 o'clock untilnoon, and we're at um Agate
Beach, that's where we meet, andwhat we've discovered is that
uh when you first start, it'sreally kind of fun, and there's
sort of a friendly competitionstarts between the different
(16:04):
groups because there would belike three people to a screen.
And and so it's fun for awhile, but after about an hour
and a half, the fun's gone.
RR (16:15):
You turn into work.
Guy Faust (16:17):
It starts feeling like work because you're lifting
and and but uh when they comeback afterwards, we put it all
all the microplastic together,we weigh it, we take a photo of
the group, and it's instantgratification because you can
just see what you picked upthere.
Unfortunately, you know, it'sjust a drop in the bucket.
RR (16:42):
You got a number of people that are involved in a
competition, though.
Guy Faust (16:45):
Oh yeah, yeah.
Well, let me finish up withthis thought is that what I tell
folks is I said, you know, yougo out there and you w you work
uh two hours of your life and uhyou got a little bit to show
from from it, but you know, it'snot even a drop in the bucket,
and the problem is worldwide.
That's one way to look at it.
(17:06):
The other way to look at it isyou just spent two hours of your
life removing microplasticthat's not going to be floating
around in the oceans for thenext hundred to a thousand years
long after you're dead andgone.
And so if you look at it thatway, yeah, it was worth it a
while.
And the people do get instantgratification.
(17:27):
But we have two targetaudiences.
Target audience number one iswe get a lot of visitors to the
Oregon coast in the summer.
And after they're throughshopping and after they're
through going to the touristsites and stuff, if they want to
do something green, we givethem the opportunity, they can
(17:48):
scan our little QR code and theycan go to our site and sign up
and be out cleaning up beachesthe very next day.
That's target audience numberone.
The other one is, especially onweekends, we're looking for
local groups.
And for instance, uh thissummer we had Taft elementary
school kids come a couple times.
(18:09):
We had the Solettes ValleySchool, we had the Altrusa Club,
we had different businesses.
But um basically what we did iswe paid them a hundred dollars
if they could get anywhere fromten to thirty volunteers to show
up.
But that also made themeligible for a thousand dollar
(18:31):
drawing.
And the way that the drawingworks is for every volunteer
they get, they get one ticket.
Well, the Taft Kids, they had30 kids that day.
They also get a ticket for uhevery pound of microplastic they
get off the beach.
And so on Jan or on December4th, we're gonna have a ticket
(18:51):
drawing, and somebody's gonnawin a thousand dollars.
And but again, this is thefirst year that we started this,
and what we really want to dois build it.
I saw a lot of clubs heretonight that I think should be
eligible or wanting to do it,like the Kids Zone in Depot Bay
and other ones, but that's whatwe're gonna be doing in early
(19:13):
December.

RR (20:14):
Now is the time to get the flu shot.
Dr. Ogden (20:16):
It is coming.
It is coming.
We say, you know, aboutSeptember, October time frame.
We want everybody to startthinking about it.
You know, there's always thosepeople who posit, depending on
when we start seeing the firstcases of flu, when it's most
advantageous to get that flushot.
(20:37):
We want about two weeks for ourbodies to start building up
those antibodies and really beable to perform at this the
highest uh level against whatwhatever influenza virus is
circulating this year.
But the most important thing,honestly, is not to try to be a
(20:58):
master of the timing, it's toget it at all, right?
That's that's what most of usshould strive to do.
And so if you get it a littleearly, right when it becomes
available, or if you get it alittle late in November after
the, just get it.
Just get it in your arm.
The flu vaccine has been aroundfor years and years and years
(21:20):
and years.
It is a very good vaccine thatmost years is a good match to
what influenza viruses arecirculating.
What we try to do is look andsee what has happened in the
southern hemisphere since theyhave the opposite seasons from
us, see what's circulatingbecause chances are that's
what's going to come our way.
(21:41):
And then each year themanufacturers make these
individual formulations.
And again, nothing's a hundredpercent.
I hear people argue all thetime with me that, oh, I don't
want to get that.
It doesn't really help thatmuch.
Well, yeah, it does.
It helps a lot in the fact thateven if it doesn't prevent you
(22:02):
from getting the flu, it mightprevent you from getting a
strong, deadly case of the flu.
And by the way, a ton morepeople die from flu than people
who are ever, ever aware of.
And they're not always justpeople who are the very young
and very old.
Oftentimes they are people thatwe least suspect.
(22:25):
So it can be deadly.
It is not something to bethought of as minor.
And if we can do something toprevent it and or to prevent it
from being as virulent as it is,we should do that.

I've got uh great greatgrandchildren now.
I can't count all of them, youknow, but a lot of them.
(23:41):
And uh this is a good audiencetoday.
They uh very receptive and uhand uh I was surprised at the
attention and everything and thequestions.
It was it was a good session.
RR (23:56):
I enjoy the fact that the respect that I heard coming from
these students.
Frank King, WW II Marine (24:01):
What's that?
RR (24:02):
The respect I heard from these students.
Frank King, WW II Marine (24:04):
Yeah, and uh, you know, you hear so
much about uh the disrespect andthe antagonism and everything
like that, but this is uh a goodaudience, and uh and the
questions were good too, andthey were pretty in-depth and
giving everybody everybody anopportunity to share.
(24:25):
And uh uh I'm impressed by theaudience more than I were about
the principal people on thestage.
RR (24:33):
Yeah, I would have to agree.
I would even though the both ofus were on stage.
Frank King, WW II Marine (24:38):

and uh a recounting of thethings.
You don't hear very many uhpersonal accounts of Iraq and
Afghanistan and that sort ofthing.
And uh uh it's I don't think itwas the easiest thing in the
world for him to share thosethings because there's a lot of
(25:17):
stuff that uh uh you don't liketo talk about when you go into
combat and the results of it andeverything.
But he did an excellent job,yeah.
RR (25:27):
At 103, I believe.
What is uh Frank King's specialmoment that he will always
remember?
Frank King, WW II Marine (25:36):
Oh, sobered up, my life changed, and
life is good.
And uh that's about it.
RR (25:46):
You are very active at 103.
Frank King, WW II Marine (25:50):
Well, that comes about from uh I think
I work out uh quite a bit morethan most seniors.
I put in five days a week downat the fitness center, and uh I
work in the exercise room inthere three days a week and uh
(26:11):
uh in the swimming pool twice uha week.
So uh and I've been doing thatfor going on 20 years now, and
uh it keeps me going.
And uh as long as I can stayflexible, both my body and all
my muscles and my head, I'm uhI'm I'll be in pretty good
(26:36):
shape.
RR (26:37):
And your head, you have been a writer for years.
Uh you you were a writer foryears for The Statesman and for
other periodicals.
Frank King, WW II Marine (26:46):
Yeah, yeah, I I still do it.
I was doing a call for thesenior center newsletter there,
but they might belly up.
But uh I still compulsively sitdown and do a uh page with one
once in a while because whenthings start getting under my
(27:09):
skin, well I get to it and Istart writing.
Uh I don't get too antagonisticbecause uh or too controversial
because uh you don't want tolet your anger take over uh when
you're talking or when you'rewriting.
RR (27:30):
All of a sudden your bias begins to show.
Frank King, WW II Marine (27:32):
That's it.
And as long as I have a goodbig waste paper basket by my
computer, I'm in I'm in goodshape.
RR (27:42):
Of your time in the military, World War II, the most
memorable moment, Frank Kingwould say is what?
Frank King, WW II Marine (27:50):
Oh, it's hard to say.
Uh I think oh final parade atboot camp after after we got
through boot camp.
And uh that was a high pointbecause my god, I didn't know
(28:13):
some marine, you know.
Never thought I'd do it.
Straight 140 pounder, you know,and uh and got through it.
I disappointed because I didn'tqualify on the rifle, but I
shot expert with a 45 caliberhandgun with a cold automatic
(28:37):
and got the highest score in theplatoon with that.
But uh uh when you're a marine,you're a rifleman, primarily a
rifleman, and every marine has arifle.
And I didn't qualify a lot, andit was a source of source of
shame.
And uh kept fire and I only gotfire for record once.
(29:02):
But uh uh I finally made itthrough the Marine Corps when
the drill instructor shook myhand and and uh I left uh and I
was a proud man.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
