North Bend Receives AARP Community Challenge Grant to Improve Access to Local Information Downtown
City of North Bend release - NORTH BEND, OR — The City of North Bend is proud to announce that it has received a $15,000 AARP Community Challenge Flagship Grant to help make important community information easier to access in the heart of downtown. The grant will support the purchase and installation of a new outdoor digital kiosk at the North Bend Visitor Information Center as part of a new downtown community hub. Once installed, the kiosk will provide easy-to-read wayfinding, safety, community, and visitor information to help older adults, residents, veterans, visitors, and local businesses independently navigate services, events, emergency resources, maps, and downtown destinations. AARP Community Challenge Flagship Grants provide an opportunity for communities to apply for funding across several categories and be creative in addressing local needs. The 2026 AARP Community Challenge accepted applications for community improvement projects related to public places, housing, transportation, digital connections, disaster resilience, and other priorities that benefit residents, especially those age 50 and older. AARP announced a record $8.3 million national investment in its 2026 Community Challenge program, supporting 750 quick-action projects across the country. The City of North Bend is honored to be included among communities working to make public spaces more welcoming, accessible, connected, and useful for people of all ages. “This project is about more than technology,” said Stephanie Wilson, Community Development Manager for the City of North Bend. “It is about helping people find useful information when and where they need it. Whether someone is looking for emergency preparedness information, downtown businesses, visitor resources, community events, or accessible attractions, this kiosk will help connect people with North Bend.” The new kiosk will be part of the broader Visitor Information Center Master Plan and will complement the future Hub Rest Area, funded in part by Travel Oregon, and the T-Mobile Plaza and Performance Corner, funded in part by T-Mobile. The announcement photo was taken in front of the Four Point Wayfinder Sign at the North Bend Visitor Information Center. That location was chosen intentionally. Several years ago, North Bend Main Street received an Open Door Pitch Grant through Oregon Main Street, made possible with funding from AARP. That earlier grant helped fund the Four Point Wayfinder Sign, which continues to help guide people through downtown. The new digital kiosk builds on that same spirit of connection, access, and community improvement. When completed, the kiosk will provide quick access to information such as: Emergency preparedness, tsunami evacuation information, and police and fire resources; Information about the Merci Boxcar and veteran resources; Local business directory, walking routes, and parking maps; Main Street and City events, programs, and volunteer opportunities; Public art, museums, and cultural attractions; Senior programs and community resources; Wheel the World accessibility information, including accessible amenities and attractions; Tourism destinations, recreation opportunities, and visitor information. The kiosk will be especially useful for residents who may not have reliable internet or smartphone access, travelers with limited cellular service, visitors looking for quick directions, and community members who want one easy place to learn about local services, events, businesses, attractions, history, and opportunities. The City is grateful to AARP for investing in projects that strengthen communities and improve accessibility. This new addition will help connect more people with the resources, businesses, attractions, history, and opportunities that make North Bend a special place to live, work, visit, and explore.

Secretary Read Celebrates Victory in Executive Order Case on Voting Rights
A federal judge permanently blocked key parts of an executive order that would have made voting more difficult for eligible citizens - Secretary of State release - SALEM, OR — Today, in a victory for the rights of people to hold politicians accountable through elections, a federal judge permanently blocked key parts of President Trump’s March 2025 executive order that would have made it harder for eligible citizens to vote. Oregon Secretary of State Tobias Read is releasing the following statement: “As I’ve been saying for months and a judge agreed today, the president does not have any power over how states run elections. The Constitution is clear: states and Congress set the rules for elections, not one man in the Oval Office. Instead of trying to make voting more difficult, the president should instead focus on strengthening election security, supporting local election officials, and protecting every eligible American's freedom to vote.” This ruling was in response to a lawsuit brought by 19 states that sued to block President Trump's executive order from March 2025. The order had previously been partially blocked by the same court under a preliminary injunction. Other federal courts have also granted injunctions against this executive order, including the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington in response to Oregon and Washington's lawsuit.

Commission meets June 25-26 in Redmond to adopt fall salmon seasons, furbearer regulations
ODFW release - SALEM, Ore. —Oregon's Fish and Wildlife Commission meets June 25-26 in Redmond. View the agenda online. On Thursday, Commissioners will visit projects showcasing the landscape scale work underway with partners to protect and restore sagebrush habitat for mule deer in central Oregon. To join the tour, meet at Comfort Inn Suites, 2243 South Yew Avenue in Redmond at 8 a.m. The tour is expected to cover a large area (see the tour route and tour agenda.) Members of the public must provide their own transportation and lunch on the tour. Friday's business meeting starts at 8 am at the Redmond Grange #81, 707 SW Kalama Ave. and will be livestreamed on the meeting agenda page and at ODFW's YouTube channel. To testify in front of the Commission about a topic not on the agenda register for public forum online at least 48 hours before the meeting (by Wednesday, June 24 at 8 a.m.). Sign up at least 48 hours in advance of the meeting to testify online for an agenda item or in public forum. Use the forms found on the agenda page to sign up. To testify in person, sign up using the paper forms provided at the meeting. Written comments can also be submitted until 72 hours before the meeting (by Tuesday, June 23 at 8 a.m.) using the links provided with each agenda item on the agenda page. The following topics are on the agenda for Friday: 2027-29 Agency Requested Budget: ODFW is working with a wide range of stakeholders and partners to develop its 2027–29 Agency Request Budget (ARB), which will be submitted to the Governor by August 31. The agency’s budget is supported by a combination of Lottery Funds, General Fund, Federal Funds, and Other Funds. The department will provide an overview of the 2027-29 Agency Request Budget, including new investments to support species resiliency, resilient agency infrastructure, and connecting Oregonians. A highlight for the 2027–29 budget cycle, Oregon now has a dedicated funding source for conserving at-risk species thanks to the passage of HB 4134 during the 2025 legislative session. This historic, bipartisan legislation increases the state’s transient lodging tax by 1.25 percent beginning January 1, 2027, and directs a portion of the new revenue to wildlife and habitat conservation efforts statewide. In addition to supporting at-risk species, these funds will also provide dedicated resources for wildlife connectivity initiatives, OCRF (Oregon Conservation and Recreation Fund) grants, and wildlife stewardship efforts in urban areas. According to a 2024 report, outdoor recreation in Oregon generated $16 billion in consumer spending and supported 192,000 full and part-time jobs. Many visitors come to Oregon specifically for outdoor recreation. With the passage of HB 4134, these visitors will now contribute directly to conserving the natural resources that make Oregon such a special place to explore. The ARB outlines how the new funding, along with existing revenue streams, will be used to improve understanding of at-risk species, plan conservation actions, and implement large-scale projects that benefit both at-risk and other wildlife species. Once the Fish and Wildlife Commission approves the 2027–29 ARB, it will be forwarded to the Governor for consideration. The Governor will then submit her recommended budget to the 2027 Oregon State Legislature, which has final authority to adopt ODFW’s budget. 2026-28 Furbearer regulations: Proposed changes would implement HB 3932 passed by the 2025 Oregon State Legislature. The bill prohibited recreational or commercial take of beaver within areas classified by the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality as Category 4 or Category 5 waters under the federal Clean Water Act, when those waters occur on, flow through, or adjoin public land. The department is required to identify these areas in statewide maps, which will be updated every two years in consultation with DEQ. The first such publication is the 2025–2027 Oregon Beaver Harvest Closure Map. 2026 Coastal fall salmon seasons: Each year, the Commission sets seasons and bag limits for wild fall Chinook and wild coho in coastal rivers. Anglers can also fish for hatchery Chinook and coho in many basins, with seasons and bag limits set separately in the Oregon Sport Fishing Regulations. This year, wild Chinook retention is proposed to be open in 18 coastal basins. Wild Chinook bag limits would increase relative to 2025 in the Necanicum, Nehalem, Tillamook, Siuslaw, and Umpqua basins and decrease in the Nestucca Basin. The Coquille River and Elk River will be open for hatchery Chinook retention only due to conservation concerns. Wild coho fisheries are proposed for 10 coastal basins in addition to the three lake populations (Siltcoos, Tahkenitch, and Tenmile lakes). The 2026 forecasted ocean abundance of Oregon Coast Natural (OCN) coho is 218,600 fish, down from a forecast of 289,000 fish in 2025. All basins open to wild coho retention in 2025 are proposed to be open in 2026 in some capacity, except for the Alsea basin. The Alsea and Umpqua basins did not meet criteria for implementing a wild coho fishery. Visit the Fall Coastal Salmon Management Page for more details on proposed bag limits and season dates and subscribe to the page for updates. Commercial coastal pelagic species: Adopt proposed rule amendments to ensure that state regulations are consistent with federally adopted limits and management measures for Pacific sardine. The federal regulations will maintain the primary directed fishery closure and continues very low bycatch allowances across other West Coast fisheries due to the depressed stock status. Oregon Conservation and Recreation Fund (OCRF) funding: Approve OCRF Advisory Committee’s recommendations to fund 19 projects that protect and enhance the species and habitats identified in the State Wildlife Action Plan and create new opportunities for wildlife watching, urban conservation, community science, and other wildlife-associated recreation. Restoration & Enhancement funding: Approve funding for projects recommended by the R&E board including a large wood placement project to improve fish habitat and an egg counter for a STEP facility. Access & Habitat funding, chair appointment, and raffle allocations: Approve funding for projects recommended by the A&H Board including renewal of several access areas that provide hunters access to private land. The Commission will be asked to appoint an A&H Board Chair and allocate 2027 auction and raffle tags. Host organizations receive 10 percent of the sales price for the tag sold at auction, which they can use to fund their own grant programs benefiting wildlife. Executive session: An Executive Session will be held pursuant to ORS 192.660(2)(f) to consider information or records that are exempt by law from public inspection, as well as to consult with legal counsel concerning legal rights and duties of a public body with regard to current litigation or litigation likely to be filed as authorized by ORS 192.660(2)(h). The executive session is closed to the public. Media wishing to attend should contact the Director's office at (503) 947-6044.

Coast Guard rescues injured hiker from Mount Larrabee in Mount Baker Wilderness, Washington
USCG release - ASTORIA, Ore. — A Coast Guard MH-65 Dolphin helicopter aircrew from Air Station Port Angeles assisted local search and rescue crews with the evacuation of an injured 33-year-old female hiker from Mount Larrabee in Washington’s Mount Baker Wilderness, Saturday. The hiker sustained serious injuries after she fell 120 feet down a steep gully on the mountain’s south face and was unable to descend the mountain. Due to the location of the injured hiker and need to conduct the evacuation before sunset, the Washington State Emergency Management Division requested the Coast Guard’s assistance. The Coast Guard aircrew searched the narrow gully for 40 minutes before spotting a reflection from hikers on the mountain, who led the aircrew to the injured female. Operating at an altitude of 6,710 feet and with less than 10 minutes of fuel remaining to stay on scene, the aircrew successfully completed a precision hoist at approximately 8:40 p.m. and safely transported the hiker to Bellingham Airport, where emergency medical services from Bellingham Fire were waiting. “This successful outcome is a direct result of the outstanding teamwork and rapid coordination between our agencies,” said Lt. Cmdr. Marshall Burtt, aircraft commander of the rescue. “I want to thank Whatcom County Search and Rescue, Bellingham Fire Department, as well as the hikers for their efforts. Equipped with advanced survival training and critical safety gear, the hiking party was uniquely prepared to serve as active partners during the rescue of their fellow hiker.”

OSU Goss Stadium to get Major Upgrade
OSU release - CORVALLIS, Ore. –– Oregon State University leaders today announced plans for an expansion of Goss Stadium at Coleman Field, made possible by an anonymous $15 million gift to the OSU Foundation. The project includes a new right-field structure, adding permanent bleacher seating, a dedicated clubhouse, office space for the Corvallis Knights Baseball Club and additional amenities for fans. News of the gift follows the university’s recent announcements of the $48 million Valley Challenge for Student-Athletes and $25 million in gifts for the new Field Sports Building. “This project is another powerful example of philanthropic momentum for OSU Athletics, demonstrating our community’s shared ambition to compete and win at the highest level,” said Jayathi Y. Murthy, Oregon State president. “I am grateful to the donor for their generosity and to Coach Mitch Canham, the Corvallis Knights and the OSU Foundation, for working together to make this investment possible.” As envisioned, the new right-field structure will provide additional permanent bleacher seats, helping meet sustained demand for tickets for Oregon State baseball and the Corvallis Knights. Beneath the bleachers, the building will house a year-round clubhouse and meeting space for Corvallis Knights players, coaches and staff, along with restrooms and a concession area. The project is expected to be completed in 2028. “Goss Stadium, established in 1907, is the oldest continuously used ballpark in the nation. We take enormous pride in that fact. This investment in Oregon State baseball sends a powerful message that our community remains committed to winning and supports our goal to recruit and retain top talent and compete for national championships,” said Mitch Canham, Oregon State’s Pat Casey Head Baseball Coach. “As we continue to enhance Goss, we’re investing in the future of Beaver baseball and Corvallis.” The university established its partnership with the Corvallis Knights in 2006, when the Knights relocated to Corvallis. “Having a presence on campus and a dedicated clubhouse for our Corvallis Knights players and coaches is a dream come true,” said Dan Segel, CEO and president of the Knights Baseball Club. “Our priorities continue to be developing students and delivering memorable experiences. This new space will help immensely in our quest to mold young leaders, promote the importance of human connections and provide our student-athletes with a healthy, first-class team room.” Both Oregon State and the Corvallis Knights rank among the leading brands in college baseball. Over the past 20 years, Oregon State has won three NCAA national championships and made seven appearances in the College World Series. The Knights captured the NBC World Series in 2004 and were named Perfect Game’s National Summer Collegiate Team of the Year in both 2019 and 2021. Since head coach Brooke Knight took over the Knights’ dugout in 2008, the club has won 10 West Coast League championships. Goss Stadium has also produced a steady stream of Major League Baseball players, including Cleveland Guardians second baseman Travis Bazzana and outfielder Steven Kwan, Chicago Cubs pitcher Matt Boyd and Baltimore Orioles catcher Adley Rutschman. To date, 45 Oregon State alumni and 35 former Knights have reached the big leagues.
