People of Tillamook County Send Demand Petition Calling for Tillamook County District Attorney’s Resignation; Requests Governor, Attorney General Launch Investigation to Determine Criminality of Tillamook County District Attorney’s Actions

The “People of Tillamook County” sent a demand petition to the Governor’s office and state Attorney General’s office the end of October asking for an independent criminal investigation of Tillamook County District Attorney Aubrey Olson, when Olson failed to resign. The group sent a demand to the DA asking her to resign within 72 hours of receipt of the document. The nearly 450 page demand petition outlines multiple examples of Olson’s unethical and in some cases criminal mis-handling of cases in Tillamook County. In addition, following the county’s investigation the DA filed a lawsuit against the county and threatened the Sheriff’s office whistleblower. Recently upon receipt of the People’s petition, she attempted to block the Board of Commissioners from taking action, again threatening injunctions and legal action.

This Oregon Coast Restaurant Sits Right on the Bay So You Watch Sea Lions Lounge While You Eat Fish and Chips

Newport has a working waterfront that still runs on boats, docks, and fish deliveries. Across from the marina boardwalk, sea lions sprawl on the docks like they own the place, and in a way, they kind of do. Right there on the bay sits a two-story fish house where lunch comes with a front-row seat to all of it.

Coastal Miles and Team Smiles: Taking on the Three Capes Relay from Cape Meares to Pacific City

The Three Capes Relay is a one-day, 26.2-mile adventure that you can tackle solo or with a team of 2 or 5. Starting in Tillamook and winding south along the Oregon Coast before finishing in Pacific City, it’s a fundraiser that directly supports Tillamook High School athletics. It’s also one of those true bucket-list races, in our opinion. Before diving deeper, we wanted to call out a few key details right up front.

Dallas-Silverton rivalry continues in 5A football state quarterfinals

One of Class 5A football's most storied rivalries is getting another chapter in its book. No. 1 Silverton (8-2) and No. 9 Dallas (9-1) are scheduled for a Nov. 13 meeting in the OSAA state quarterfinals at Silverton High School. Earlier in the season, Dallas defeated Silverton 17-14 in Dallas — it was the first time the Dragons beat the Foxes in a decade. The game came down to the wire and was decided by a blocked field goal with under 20 seconds left,, setting up round two. "There’s no lack of motivation from the kids. It’s tough to get the opportunity to avenge a loss in football because in basketball you play everyone twice, baseball, soccer … this is a rare opportunity to get another chance at them and get a chance at them at home," Lever said. With momentum on the side of the Dragons at home in the first matchup, Lever and the Foxes hope the home fans can sway the playoff rendition, too. "(The crowd) was a factor in the last game and hopefully it's a factor in this one," Lever said. Familiar faces, familiar opponent In the first game Oct. 16, Dallas running back Aidan
