1. GeorgeV/CarolH/BrianO: At a special meeting of the Chamber Board last
Friday, it was unanimously decided to terminate the relationship between the
Chamber and Director Brent Dahl. Current staff along with increased Board
and membership participation will fill the gap till we get through Summer.
Anyone willing to help out please contact chamber at cbor.us. Your direct
contact person at the Chamber will be Sharon Visser sharon at cannonbeach.org.

June meeting. Five of the nine positions are up. Up for election are
positions held by Jim McDonald, Robin Risley, Rich Mays, Lisa Sarish and
George Vetter. Rich & Jim will not run. George is undecided. Lisa will if
she hasn’t moved by then. Robin will run. If you have interest, please send
a letter to chamberboard at cbor.us.
2. GeorgeV: Tomorrow (Thursday) from 4-7p – Business After Hours at Pizza

3. GeorgeV: City Council has a TAC worksession scheduled for April 10th at
530pm at City Hall. This meeting is to review and discuss the use and
distribution on funds from the City Lodging tax. WendyH: A challenge that
recipient groups have had is getting the money in time for their event and
in potentially not getting what was expected due to a drop in lodging
occupancy. Suggestion is to not fund event with too little lead time and to
budget and fund from money in hand rather than an estimate. At question is
how much should be spent on an event itself vs the promotion of that event.
4. StephanieA: Robert Richter, Blues and Folk musician, will perform at
the History Center this Saturday March 31 from 630 to 830p. $7 adults, $2

12. JeneeP: SOLV’s annual Spring Beach Cleanup is this Saturday March 31

a hand stamp that local businesses and individuals could recognize them.
http://www.solv.org/programs/spring_beach_cleanup.asp
15. GeorgeV: “How the Other Half Loves” opened last weekend and runs through
Apr 22 at Coaster Theatre. In this brilliantly crafted, hilarious comedy,
two couples in their own homes, the Fosters and the Phillipses, are visible
to us but not to each other. That the characters cross so blithely into
each other's spaces is an apt metaphor for the double-dealings brought on by
illicit affairs. Telephone calls are made to the wrong wife or husband;
idiotic conversations or hang-ups abound. When the hapless Featherstones
are invited to dinner, Ayckbourn's strategic ploys step up another
unbelievable notch. http://www.coastertheatre.com/OtherHalf.html

Pouring at the Coast last weekend, in it’s 3rd year, grew greatly.

grant writer. “One is needed”.

1. GaryH: Savor Cannon Beach had great attendance at all festival
events. Please report to Gary gary at coastexplorermagazine.com of how things
went at your business/event. 33 wineries (up 1/3 from 2011) were pouring
throughout town including 8 at the Chamber. Between 4 & 5pm, 100+ people
were tasting wine at the Chamber. OLCC was in town and checking that all
state laws were being observed. 100 festival tickets were sold in advance
and more than 100 Wine Walk tickets were sold in advance. [Catriona says
Wine Walk ticket sales were up by 100 from 2011. Their goal was way
surpassed]. BobNer: EVOO sold out both dinners for the weekend and had 30+
people waiting at the door for their salt tasting. ValerieR via e-mail:
Savor was a smash hit. GaryH: The Savor NW Wines Awards was a smashing
success. This was the first year, yet 260 wines were supplied by some 80

Bronze. This event took place at Surfsand Resort. Ocean Lodge supplied
lodging for judges. See www.coastexplorermagazine.com for results.

from our lodging establishments. Each Monday, a survey is sent out
requesting that info. The number of responses has been poor. Getting people
to use this tool is important. GeorgeV: For Spring Unveiling and Plein Air &
More, I called the Lodging people and was able to get stats from almost
everyone.
