FRIDAY, JULY 16, 2021 | theworldlink.com/bandon Bandon Museum thrilled to be up and running By DAVID RUPKALVIS The World

BANDON - One day, COVID-19 will have its own tab in local and world history. But for now, with the pandemic not quite over, it is a reminder of how far things have come in the last 18 months. In the future, The Bandon Mu- seum will likely have an over- view of how COVID impacted the community as one of its displays. One aspect of that story will likely be how the museum and many other businesses in Bandon were forced to close their doors. But with things improving, The Bandon Museum is back open and is again sharing the his- tory of one of the South Coast’s most colorful and most exciting destinations. For the last five years, Gayle Nix has served as the director of the museum. She said the museum used the down time to make improvements inside, but she is thrilled to have people inside again, browsing historical artifacts showcasing highlights at the city’s history. Nix may be the perfect person Photos by David Rupkalvis/The World because of her family’s deep ties A life jacket made of cork is one of the unique items in the Bandon Museum that tells the history of the city.

The tests will assist the city in locating breaks and defects in the sewer system. During the test, you may see smoke coming from vent stack on buildings or from holes in the ground. Don’t be alarmed. The smoke has no odor, is non-toxic, non- staining, does not create a fire hazard, and will dissipate in a few minutes. Before the city conducts the smoke test, please pour water into your basement floor drains and into any unused sinks. This will seal the drain traps so smoke will not enter your building through the drain. If smoke should enter your building during the test, it probably means that there are defects in the plumbing that could allow dangerous sewer gas to enter. Note the location of the smoke and call Dane Ramirez at City Hall at (541) 396-2115 x 205 to arrange a meeting and inspection.
