FAQ Page 3 About Camp Gray In the 1960’s, building on the success of OMSI’s first residential site at the Hancock Field Station in eastern Oregon, OMSI began Science Safari camping programs at various locations along the Oregon Coast. Since then, OMSI’s coastal camps have always been about exploration and adventure. Between San Juan Island, Washington down to the Redwoods in Northern California, decades of OMSI campers have hiked, canoed, and explored the coast. In 2016, The Coastal Discovery Center at Camp Gray opened as the new home for OMSI’s coastal programs. It was the culmination of a five-year, ten-million dollar capital campaign and sixty years of programming west of the Cascades. Camp Gray now serves more than 4,000 participants annually from across the United States, as well as from Japan. Nestled between Yaquina Bay and the expansive dunes of South Beach State Park, there are numerous opportunities to explore the wide range of ecosystems on the Oregon Coast. On a walk straight from the cabin door to the beach, campers investigate the connections between the ocean, geology, and ecology. OMSI summer camp is designed for children entering 2nd through 12th grade to learn about science, the natural world, themselves, and each other while forming lifelong friendships. We achieve these goals by fostering a spirit of community, adventure, and growth. Our Philosophy We believe that every child deserves the chance to be outdoors and learn new things in a safe and inclu- sive community. We take a traditional summer camp approach and turn it on its head by weaving in themes of adventure, science, exploration, and community into daily life. Our experiential, concept-based style of teaching is effective, nurturing, inspiring, and memorable. Our Values and Our Vision Campers come to Camp Gray bubbling with excitement, enthusiasm, and curiosity. It is our goal to en- sure they leave with a greater sense of confidence, independence, and knowledge. The residential camp experience can be genuinely life-changing. We foster an environment that ensures each child feels wel- come, special, and as though they can learn and grow as individuals while forming a sense of belonging in this unique community. It is our hope that staff, parents, and campers learn something new, have fun, and discover new and long lasting friendships.

It is where campers bond as a group, make friends, get into a bit of mischief, and have epic experiences they’ll remember forever. Campers get to know other kids from all of the camps, but the cabin groups are like little families. Campers live in cabins by age group and gender. Cabins generally have 1-2 counselors and 5-7 campers. All cabins have electricity, screened windows, air conditioning, and updated, comfortable mattresses. Each cabin area has a bathroom connected by covered porch. Each bathroom has multiple toilet and shower stalls with curtained changing areas. After breakfast, campers have a short clean up period to participate in community stewardship activities called Kitchen Party and Scrub Club. There’s also time to work as a team to clean the cabin before heading off to their first activity. Cabin inspection occurs randomly each day while campers are at their activities and the cabins compete for the cleanest cabin and the highly respected, and much coveted, clean bunk award. Campers are together or in their cabin area during rest time each day. This is a time for relaxing, hanging out, writing letters and re-charging for the rest of the day. Evening activities are generally active, all camp activities but some are age group specific or by cabins, enabling groups to spend time together, play, have bonding time, and much more. After evening programs campers have time for personal hygiene activities and will do a meaningful activity with their counselor (like story time or sharing highlights from the day) before bed. Page 7 Camp Food This is how we do “camp” food. Campers and staff alike love the food here. We serve buffet-style meals and campers sit by choice at meals. Breakfast and dinner are served and eaten inside Meyer Hall, and we pack lunch to take with us after breakfast. Because we are conservation-minded, and cognizant of the incredible resources needed for food production, transport, preparation, and storage, we like to keep an eye on our food waste in a fun way. After every meal, we weigh and track any food waste. We refer to it as ‘ort’, and The Ort Report is often a highlight of the meal (close second to dessert, of course). Dietary Restrictions We are able to provide for a number of dietary restrictions, including vegetarian, gluten-free, and dairy-free options. When possible, we create variations on the main meal– gluten free pasta, vegetarian sausage, or corn tortillas. Whether our specialty meals correspond to the main offering or not, we always make sure that there is a healthy and delicious option for all. While we can do our best to avoid cross-contamination, we cannot guarantee that some allergens are not present. We pride ourselves on meal service and catering to dietary restrictions, and are open to inquiries and problem-solving in advance whenever necessary. Page 8 Camp Map 3400 SW Abalone St, South Beach, OR 97366 Page 9 Frequently Asked Questions Can you accommodate non-binary, non-gender conforming, trans, and other LGBTQ youth? How does that work? Yes! We can, and we have successfully done so. OMSI respects, values, and celebrates the unique attributes, characteristics and perspectives that make each person who they are. At camp, we don’t want anyone to feel left out. We want to provide an open and welcoming atmosphere where everyone feels safe and empowered to be themselves. Because camps are traditionally co-ed, we have the obvious barriers for the gender diverse in sleeping and hygiene areas, but we’re committed to dismantling those barriers in a respectful way. Since each individual is different and has different needs, we encourage you to reach out if you have any specific questions or concerns. We appreciate any opportunity to speak directly with families about how we can work together to make the OMSI summer camp experience worry-free for everyone regardless of orientation, gender, or any other identity.

January 1972 Portland Oregon 97201 OREGON'S MINERAL AND METALLURGICAL INDUSTRY IN 1971 Ralph S. Mason* If 1971 could be labelled the year of "Emergent Environmentalism", then 1972 will almost certainly have to be tagged as the year of "Enforced Environmentalism." Of particular interest to the extrac­ tive"mineral industry will be the implementation of HB 3013, the Mined Land Reclamation Act, which becomes effective on July 1, 1972. Other environmental regulations originating at state or Fed­ eral levels will also have profound effect on the industry. Despite the lackadaisical state of the economy, mineral pro­ duction in Oregon chalked up a modest gain, rising to an estimated $68.4 million. As usual, sand and gravel and stone accounted for most of the production. The value of metals and metallurgical prod­ ucts refi ned in the sta te is not inc Iuded in the canvass by the U . S. Bureau of Mines. If this figure were included, the total would exceed $700 million. The Big E The Environment means many things to many people. To the sand-and­ gravel producer Environment will mean conformance to the Mined Land Reclamation Act which goes into effect July 1, 1972, and which will require a permit, a mining plan, a reclamation program and the payment of a small fee. Rules and regulations have not been drawn up but will be published in the Ore Bin later this year.

    ECONOMIC ANALYSIS OF OUTDOOR RECREATION IN OREGON EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Across all of Oregon, there are thousands of recreation sites and opportunities where one can hike, HOW THIS COMPARES TO OTHER ANALYSES camp, bike, picnic, hunt, kite surf, and more; and every year, billions of dollars are spent by folks enjoying Oregon’s outdoors. Recognizing that outdoor recreation is a major contributor to the state’s economy, This analysis is consistent with findings from other research conducted on Oregon’s outdoor recreation economy. In Travel Oregon, the Oregon Office of Outdoor Recreation (OREC), and Oregon Department of Fish and 2017, the Outdoor Industry Association estimated that $16.4 billion was spent on outdoor recreation trips and gear Wildlife (ODFW) came together to commission a study on the impacts of the outdoor recreation economy. purchases in Oregon, an estimate slightly higher than the one presented here.

While these estimates vary from the findings of this analysis, it is important to understand Consumer spending on outdoor recreation supports businesses and jobs throughout the state, and then that the BEA analysis does not consider local recreation in their analysis, making the results more comparable to the ripples throughout Oregon’s economy as business income and wages are re-spent, causing economic visitor expenditure estimate presented earlier. effects in sectors not directly tied to outdoor recreation.
