Art/Craft Fairs

Hey everyone,

I have just moved here and I am interested in the vendor and tabling culture and community around Oregon City!

I am looking for opportunities to be a vendor or table at some art fairs/bazaars/markets etc.

Does anyone know what Oregon City and surrounding places have got going on?

My idea of homemade goods would be prints, polymer clay and clay pieces, paintings, sculptures, pottery etc. All the fun good market stuff.

Thanks in advance 🤞🏻😇

Lost puppy!

Hi!

My parents lost their dog as my dad was getting home from work.

She is a 5 month old, about 3lbs and 1ft long small, tan, chihuahua mix named Coco at around 6:30pm today Sun Nov 24, 2024.

She was last seen in the parking lot of Tacho’s Mexican Restaurant off Molalla!

If you’ve seen her or know anyone who has seen her, please let me know!

I’ll add some pics of her for reference!

Looking for a friend

So I moved here recently and trying to find a platonic girlfriend bestie. I'm 29F, pagan, and have a cat. I like writing books. I work a part time job in West Linn and am working on finding a membership at a decent gym and hope someone will go with me. Maybe we can grab coffee? Or drinks? Let me know.

Experience-based gifts for a couple in their 30s?

Hello!

I am purchasing a holiday gift for my godparents and want to get them something thoughtful this year. I was thinking tickets or a gift card to a local experience would be cool. They’re really into craft beers and spending time outdoors. Are there any local breweries or restaurants that have fun events/experiences? Thanks so much!

Looking for Friends

Hello to whoever reads this! I’m reaching out trying to find some friends to meet and hopefully grow a friendly relationship with. Im a 33yo male living in Oregon city, and I have one dog and cat. I moved to Oregon just over 4 years ago and unfortunately have been focusing on work and a friend that no longer lives here. I’ve been feeling quite lonely as of late and would love a friend to hang out and talk too on a regular basis, if we click and have some of the same interests. I’m a bit of an introvert but can open up easily and can be very outgoing once I’m comfortable. I’m a person who is understanding and is always working on personal growth. Looking for someone who ideally has the same outlook.

Things I like: • Hiking, camping, outdoor adventures • Sports (both playing and watching) I played soccer my whole life and enjoy watching NFL, NBA, MLS and most other major sports. • Reading • Video Games and watching shows/movies • Live music or going out for drinks • 420 friendly • Active but not currently in the gym • Cooking

Ideally looking for friends that are around the same age of 23-40yo, male or female. In, or around the Portland area. If you’re someone who is also looking for friends and think we may vibe. Please message me and we can talk some more!

Thanks for reading!

Organic debris in city water?

Since moving to OC I have experienced a constant debris sheen on my toilet bowl that appears to be dirt or organic in source. I have never experienced such elsewhere. This requires almost daily bowl cleaning rather than the weekly routine i had elsewhere.

My suspicion lies with water source (Clackamas River) or lack of solid filtration in the process.

I know, first world problems, right?

Is this a localized problem or systemic? I live in Rivercrest, FWIW

thanks for lucid replies.. just curious, not above more frequent housework.

Restored for history

I know Oregon City is the oldest chartered city west of the Mississippi River. That said,there are many towns and cities of comparable vintage. One thing that impresses me is the large number of houses in the 100+years group, freshly painted with care to historic detail.OC also has a downtown with many buildings dating to the turn of the last century.

I doubt this happened without some input from someone,be it governmental or civic. when did preservation efforts start, and start to take hold?

Chickens

Hello

I have a family member in Redland who recently became ill and finding difficult to take care of her chickens. She has asked I help her with selling them.

hens are laying and asking 5$ per hen. Must bring own boxes / cages when picking up.

We have about 14 hens and one rooster. Willing to sell in packs or in full. Hens are about 2 years old. Much appreciated (:

Neighbor's Blackberry is causing issues, looking for advice.

Hello, I live in the historic district of Oregon City, and I have a neighbor with a yard full of blackberry that is growing over the property line and into my yard, making it impossible for me to keep my yard blackberry free.

Are there any city, county, or state ordinances here that require people to manage their nuisance plants?

Airbnb

We’re buying another house in OC and are going to rent out our current house. A friend of mine has a couple Airbnbs in Oregon and suggested I look into Airbnd’ing it instead.

OC rules say it goes to planning counsel and they notify neighbors within 300 feet. Just curious if anyone has experience with getting approved and the process.

Big Police Response Last Night

We saw tons of state troopers, Clackamas Sheriff's, and OCPD, all running hot up 213 past Bevercreek towards Mollala. Anyone know what happened? Don't see anything on the news.

Group on 213/Bcreek

What is the deal with the extremist group on the corner of 213/Beavercreek? Racist flags, 45 flags, walking up to/chasing cars screaming profanities? They’re a disgrace to the community let alone a hazard.

Reckless endangerment of a child on Beavercreek Rd 9/6/2024

Occurred 7:19pm on September 6 2024

Black Toyota Tundra License Plate "264HZL" White man in his 40s driving the truck.

Make/ModelToyota/Tundra

GenerationII (XK50) facelift (2013-2021)

We were in left lane on 213 South / Trails End Hwy heading south in left lane to turn left at the Berry Hill intersection to head towards Albertsons. This idiot gets so mad he can't overtake us on the way to a RED light that he swerves into the right lane - swerves in front of us and slams on the breaks with inches to spare. We have a CHILD IN THE CAR. There is BABY ON BOARD stickers all over our car. He did this right before the traffic was stopped for the light very close to the intersection. Definitely lots of witnesses. You are really lucky that my usb drive that records dashcam footage just so happened to ran out of space - I would have cut and dry charges pressed against you right now. Keep driving like that, you'll get whats coming to you. We have a 5 week old son. Shame on you, you soulless emotional idiot.

Does anyone else have a kid that goes to Redland? This school is subpar at best.

Off leash dog parks?

I know about molalla state park and I've read up on minto-brown in Salem. I've been to one on the Columbia around troutdale area I'm hoping there may be more where I can open the car door and let the dogs jump out sans leash, where all the dogs are friendly and there's plenty of room to run. Am I asking for too much?

OC Club: What’s Next?

Hey OC friends,

I recently posted about a site I made listing all of the Happy Hour deals in Oregon City (oregoncityclub.com).

I’m wondering what this group would prefer my next “list” be. Karaoke? Live Music? Something else?

I’ve really enjoyed tinkering with this site, and would love to have it be something special for us locals.

Feedback and ideas extremely welcome! 🙏
