Cape Lookout Stewardship Day
2024-10-27 13:00 - 15:30 (America/Los_Angeles) | Cape Lookout State Park, 13000 Whiskey Creek Road Tillamook, 97141
CAPE LOOKOUT STEWARDSHIP DAY – SUNDAY, OCTOBER 27th
Cape Lookout Stewardship Day offers opportunities to give back and work to maintain our natural areas and restore healthy coastal landscapes.
Join Friends Of Netarts Bay-WEBS and lend a hand clearing weeds and invasive ivy from recent plantings established at Cape Lookout State Park.
During last winter, WEBS volunteers helped OR State Parks staff plant a large variety of native trees, shrubs, and plants. Throughout this spring and summer, volunteers and staff members have continued their stewardship at Cape Lookout.
For this event, park staff along with WEBS volunteers, will be on hand to supervise participants who will be clearing around the established winter plantings, removing unwanted plants that may slow their growth and in addition, do some ivy removal around the park. “Our goal is aimed at improving and restoring the habitat within the park”, says WEBS director Chrissy Smith.
If possible, we ask participants to provide their own:

work gloves
hand pruners
shovels
appropriate gear for Oregon Coast in September
It is also recommended that participants bring a reusable water bottle, and snacks.

Invisible Losses with Helen Beaman at Tillamook Library
2025-01-09 14:00 - 15:00 | Tillamook County Library, 1716 3rd Street Tillamook Oregon 97141
Grief doesn’t always have to involve losing someone in your life. As we age, we are sometimes forced to consider giving up things or activities we enjoy; such as jogging, pinochle, volunteer activities, or traveling. This can lead to a rather profound sense of loss. Join an expert as we discuss the types of “invisible losses,” and learn how to cope, heal, and grieve from these types of disenfranchised losses.
