contact person at the Chamber will be Sharon Visser sharon at cannonbeach.org.

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
a fetta. Spirits, food and fun! 

 

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.

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.
