ONE BOOK ONE COAST WRAPS UP SUNDAY WITH A SPECIAL VIEWING PARTY AT THE LIBRARY!   
  
Join us on Sunday, May 31 at 1:45 p.m. for a live viewing via Zoom of LA County Librarian and Director, Dr. Skye Patrick, and Long Beach Public Library Director, Cathy de Leon, in conversation with actor, author, and activist George Takei in celebration of One Book, One Coast!  
  
The largest book club on the West Coast wraps up with a special visit from George Takei, author of They Called Us Enemy. They will be talking to George about the experiences that led to the creation of his memoir, what it means to be a good neighbor and citizen in the face of overwhelming challenges, and how shared books and stories build stronger communities.   
  
George Takei is a renowned civil rights activist, social media icon, Grammy-nominated recording artist, New York Times bestselling author, and pioneering actor whose career has spanned over six decades. Best known for his role as Hikaru Sulu in Star Trek, Takei has appeared in more than 40 feature films and hundreds of television episodes. He has leveraged his public profile to champion social justice, LGBTQ+ rights, and marriage equality.  
  
Takei’s advocacy is deeply personal. As a child during World War II, he and his family were among the 125,000 Japanese Americans unjustly imprisoned in U.S. incarceration camps—a formative experience that shaped his lifelong commitment to civil rights and public service.  
  
Currently, Takei serves as chair emeritus and is a member of the Board of Trustees of the Japanese American National Museum. He was appointed to the Japan-United States Friendship Commission by President Bill Clinton and, in 2004, was honored by the Emperor of Japan with the Order of the Rising Sun, Gold Rays with Rosette, for his significant contributions to U.S.-Japan relations.

MAYOR'S MESSAGE  
  
Coos Bay Welcomes the Summer Season  
  
As another school year comes to a close, summer is beginning to make its long-awaited return to Coos Bay. This time of year always brings a renewed sense of energy to our community — longer days, warmer weather, busy parks and waterfronts, and the excitement of welcoming visitors to Oregon’s South Coast.  
  
City crews have been hard at work preparing our community for the summer season by sprucing up outdoor spaces, completing maintenance projects, and enhancing areas like the Boardwalk and public gathering spaces that residents and visitors alike enjoy throughout the year. These efforts help showcase the pride we all share in our community and create welcoming spaces for families, recreation, and events.  
  
Summer also marks the beginning of an important season for many of our local businesses. Tourism plays a vital role in Coos Bay’s economy, supporting lodging facilities, restaurants, retail shops, attractions, and the many small businesses that help make our community unique. We are grateful to the business owners, employees, and volunteers who work tirelessly to create memorable experiences for both residents and visitors.  
  
As we look ahead to a busy summer filled with community events, outdoor recreation, and opportunities to enjoy all that Coos Bay has to offer, I encourage everyone to shop local, support our small businesses, and take time to enjoy the beauty and spirit of our community.  
  
Wishing all students, teachers, and families a safe and enjoyable start to summer.
