Crab feed planned in Newport
The Newport High School softball team will sponsor a crab feed in the high school's multipurpose room from 4:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. Friday, Feb. 1.
The menu will include one-half crab, donated by local crabbers and processors, a cup of Mo's famous clam chowder, coleslaw, Franz French Bread, dessert and coffee or a choice of Pepsi products.
The cost of the meal will be $7 per person or $22 for a family (immediate family).
Tickets may be purchased from any Newport High softball player, or at the door.
The crab feed is being held in conjunction with the Newport vs. Philomath girls' basketball games. This allows basketball fans to have dinner and then take in an evening of high school basketball.
For further information, contact Newport High School softball coach Mark Schiewe at 265-7382.

Fly fishers set meeting
The Central Coast Fly Fishers normally meet on the second Thursday of each month, however, to avoid conflicting with Valentine's Day, the group's February meeting has been moved to 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 7, upstairs at the Bayshore Club House in Waldport.
The group will watch fly tying, hold a short business meeting, swap fish stories (the good, the bad and the ugly), share fly fishing ideas, and set up for fly tying for the beginner. All those who have never tied a fly but would like to give it a try are invited to come and participate.
For additional information, contact President Alan Canfield, 563-6976.t
