6-06 ONC Newsletter Oregon Nordic Club PORTLAND CHAPTER SEPTEMBER 2017 Determined trail tenders on Meadows Creek On August 9, our determined group of nine-and-a-half did not let the warm weather deter us from our mission. We arrived at the Meadows Tie Trail and Ken Wenzel split up into three groups to divide and get the job done. Four of us started at the trail’s end on the Pocket Creek Road, looping off small trees and limbs. The other two started hanging diamonds. To our great surprise, Jim Thornton showed up and helped us loop for an hour and chatted about the Forest Service and how our club was doing. Jim wants to do an overnight trip to Tilly Jane this January with our club. When we got to the creek Jim said good bye and headed back to his truck. We continued on and completed our mission at about 2 p.m. We hung over 50 diamonds and looped off many hundreds of small trees. To finish the day we headed down to the stream cross- ing and had lunch with cold beverages. A job well done! Thanks Jim for coming down to visit. Members present: Kathy Burns, Greg Graham, Richard Crimi, Laurel Inside Dickie, Mary Hepokoski, Mary Bourret, Tere Enburg, 2 Upcoming Events John Fromwiller, and Ken Wenzel. 3 Volunteer Ken Wenzel, Trail Tending Opportunities 4 Day Tours Trail tender New overnight trip sign-up process Nordic Issues/News The process for signing up for an overnight trip this coming season (2017-18) has Mt.

REPORTS Treasurer Report Larry briefly went through the treasurer reports and inquired on the following line items: uniforms, professional & legal, training and ambulance revenue. Motion: Don Bowler moved to accept the July & August 2017 financial reports as presented, seconded by Larry Stuker, unanimously passed. Chief’s Report – Chief Tucker Fire and Ambulance Report – Chief Tucker The fire and ambulance report will be changing a bit. The current process is lengthy and Chief Tucker hopes to be able to use Intterra more frequently in the future as it will be offering more options. Intterra was a great resource during the fires. There were less medical calls during the times of the fires. It is believed people were more alert and aware of the busyness of the fire department. Chief Tucker discussed: The department was well prepared for the eclipse. Sisters did not see the amount of people that were projected. With that said, it is believed that Black Butte Ranch saw more people than projected. Madras area saw what was expected. D/C Phillips was at the MACC (Multi-Agency Coordination Center) the week of the eclipse and he felt it served the Tri-County area very well.

Destination Analysts, Inc. 833 SW 11th Avenue, Suite 920 1728 Union Street, Suite 310 Portland OR 97205 San Francisco CA 94123 503.226.2973 415.662.0732 www.deanrunyan.com www.destinationanalysts.com Executive Summary 2017 Fire Season 1.2 million acres burned during Oregon’s 2017 wildfire season, with some fire activity in every county. Smoke from these fires was particularly widespread, causing 451 unique unhealthy air quality readings across the state, a 65% increase over the previous high number of readings between 2000and 2016. Compared to previous years, smoke intruded more into populated areas, including the Portland Metro Area According to respondents to the business and organization survey conducted as part of the study, the Eagle Creek Fire (Columbia River Gorge) and Chetco Bar Fire (Curry County on the Southern Oregon Coast) had the most impact, followed by several fires and fire complexes in the Central Oregon Cascades. Businesses reported that smoke was the most prominent problem, followed by customer perceptions regarding fire-related discomfort; road closures and evacuations were also notable concerns. Economic Impacts There was a $51.5 million loss in visitor spending attributable to Oregon wildfires in 2017. $16 million in earnings for employees and working proprietors was lost, as was $368,000 and $1.5 million in local and state tax receipts, respectively. In terms of absolute sales lost, impacts were largest in Deschutes and Multnomah Counties, followed by Curry and Jackson Counties.
