The Stayton Police Department will be using Federal Grant Funds to increase patrols looking for speeders. Those who speed choose to do so for different reasons, including lateness and traffic. Regardless, driving above the speed limit or too fast for road conditions is an active disregard for one s safety, the safety of others, and the law. Like impaired driving, speeding is a selfish choice that can have deadly consequences. It reduces a driver s ability to steer safely around another vehicle, a hazardous object, or an unexpected curve.

The Stayton Family Memorial Pool is home to the Stayton Eagles and Cascade Cougar swim teams. Coach Curtis Brown, alongside the Stayton captains, Leah Ellerbee and Elizabeth Young, have led the team for the 2024-2025 season. Captain Leah Ellerbee has had a memorable season by breaking four school records, the 500 Freestyle, 200 IM, 100 Backstroke, and highest overall points. The Eagles swim team is preparing to bring the heat to the upcoming OSAA State championships, with the boys in 4th and girls in 6th for district championships there are endless possibilities for the team. The Cascade Cougars are led by Coach Shane Parlette and Cascade captains, Dixie Mandyck and Cole Tofflemire. The Cougars girls placed 8th in districts while the boys placed 7th. We are looking forward to witnessing the girls take on both the 200 medley relay and the 200 freestyle relay at State. With just a few practices away, they are putting in the hard work and time to succeed as a team. Swim teams thrive on strong group dynamics and teamwork, not just individual skill. The whole team profits when swimmers work together, help one another, and have a shared goal. Creating a supportive team atmosphere promotes trust, motivation, and a feeling of community. The Stayton Family Memorial Pool has supported the Stayton and Cascade High School Swim Team throughout the years and has played a big part in their success. From the atmosphere and familiarity, it is the home of both teams. By the continuous support and relationship with the Stayton Pool, students feel safe and a sense of belonging. Home is where the heart lies, and the heart of these teams starts at the Stayton Family Memorial Pool. ????
