GeorgeV: the Quick Draw was limited to 155 which was as many as could be seated. Tables were used this year with the auctioneer in the center rather than the end of the room. Bidding was up nicely from recent years. JimK: Icefire saw a slight drop from last year. StephanieA: More than 10 cases of wine, catering from Seasons and fudge from the Picnic Basket wined and dined visitors at Primary Elements Gallery. Best turnout ever, but lowest sales. GeorgeV: It was a good crowd, both in size and demeanor, but sales were minimal. BobNer: EVOO: Music brought in people. Saturday was good, Sunday was dead.

The city now has three facilities for storing necessities in case of an emergency These are in addition to the Container program for the public. JimK: Cannon Beach is ahead of the curve in preparation compared to other coastal communities. We need to make this a positive when visitors bring up the topic of tsunami. “We are prepared, We know what to do and where to go. We can lead you to safety” GeorgeV: Being prepared means having food, shelter and clothing on high ground. If you have not already taken advantage of the city’s Container Program, do so now. Contact 503-436-8066 <a href="mailto:see@ci.cannon-beach.or.us">see@ci.cannon-beach.or.us</a>. Or arrange/organize a neighborhood Safehouse with someone on high ground.

ChristenA: Friends of Haystack Rock presents the 3rd Annual Cannon Beach Yoga Festival. It is a nonprofit event produced in part by a grant from the Cannon Beach Tourism & Arts Fund. It will host a world-class faculty of teachers for a weekend of workshops and lectures in yoga, meditation, drawing, dance, music, and healthy living. We expect 150 visitors. In addition to the revenue generated by visitors in terms of shopping, lodging, and dining, this event strives to keep the event production expenses in this community. Last year, $35,000 was returned to the community for services rendered in event production - more than was received in the TAF grant.

GeorgeV: The first Cannon Beach Photo Review took place this past weekend. Friday night was the opening and reception of the October exhibit at Cannon Beach Gallery including works of the 20 Photographers and 10 Reviewers. An estimated 50 people crowded into the gallery for the show and the spread of food and wine. Saturday was the first of two review days at Tolovana Inn. Photographer’s were scheduled with up to nine 30-minute sessions with reviewers to review images and get feedback and ideas. All participants were on their own for meals. Reviews went from 9am to 430pm. Photographers had time between scheduled reviews to mingle or go out to shoot or explore. Saturday evening was the social event at the Chamber including panel discussion about photography led by Denver’s Katie Taft. Reviews continued on Sunday followed by Excursion led by Cory Burnett, Julie Adams and George Vetter. In spite of the very wet weekend, all participants reviewed their experience favorably. Photographers and reviewers came from as far away as Denver and San Francisco. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoListParagraph style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;margin-right:168.0pt;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;background:white'><span style='font-size:13.5pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;background:white'><span style='font-size:13.5pt'>2. GeorgeV: Because of a miscommunication, the TAC did not allocate any of the $245K to a 2013 Photo Review. A special meeting took place yesterday (Tuesday) between the TAC and the CBPR committee. Organizer Don Frank pointed out that in a survey he conducted with participants, 86 paid room nights were generated. The Cannon Beach Photo Review Facebook page accumulated nearly 1100 followers and the website – <a href="http://www.CannonBeachPhotoReview.com">www.CannonBeachPhotoReview.com</a> – spread the word further. TAC members expressed concern that the event was too “narrow” in its appeal and draw. KathyK/JimK/JohnB/JamesF: Seems that this event brings as much, if not more, to the community as the Yoga Festival, especially considering that these are photographers, publishers, and curators who will use Cannon Beach photographs in the days, weeks, months and even years ahead. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;background:white'><span style='font-size:13.5pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;margin-right:24.0pt;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;background:white'><span style='font-size:13.5pt'>3.

Meet at 930am at the Community Church 132 E Washington. These walks are to familiarize people with how to get to safe high ground in the event of a near earthquake. Once the ground stops shaking, it is estimated that a tsunami will follow in a matter of minutes – 20. Valuable information is shared on these walks about the container program, safe houses, go bags, etc. For Nancy’s recaps and George’s photos, see <a href="http://www.Cannon-Beach.net/events/EvacuationRouteWalk">www.Cannon-Beach.net/events/EvacuationRouteWalk</a>. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;background:white'><span style='font-size:13.5pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;background:white'><span style='font-size:13.5pt'>12.
