Lincoln School once again joined forces with the Coquille Valley Elks to collect
food for families in our community. This year we gathered 1,277 pounds
of food. Mrs. Norris‘s 2nd grade class brought the most food and will be
rewarded with a pizza party. We would like to thank all the students and families
that donated to this worthy cause.

McKenzie Hubbard, a graduate of Dee LaVon Massage School in Coquille and a licensed Massage Therapist since 2008, is having a grand opening with food and drink and free 5-minute chair massages at her new shop, “McKenzie’s Massage Therapy,” at 183 East Second Street (next to Samm’s Hair Care), on Thursday Dec. 17 and Friday, Dec 18, from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. McKenzie became interested in the benefits of massage after being given massage therapy treatments after an automobile accident. She said that’s when she became interested in becoming a massage therapist, because the treatments helped her tremendously. In her previous job as a CNA, she found she enjoyed helping others, and she felt massage therapy was a wonderful way to help make other peoples lives better.

 Besides offering on-site chair massage, deep tissue, and relaxation massage, McKenzie carries a line of health products, including Biofreeze. She also has specials and gift certificates available. Appointments can be scheduled by phone for Tuesdays through Saturdays from 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Walk-ins welcome on Wednesdays and Thursdays from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.¤

QUESTION: I was awarded a judgment in small claims
court in September for $1,500. The court order did not make
it a lien. The court said it could be made into a lien. How do
I go about making it into a lien? The defendant shows no
interest in paying off the judgment.
ANSWER: If a small claims court judgement is less than
$3,000 and you want a Judgment Lien which attaches the
debt for the payment of money to the real property of the
judgment debtor, you should go to the court clerk, pay the
required fee and request that the clerk note in the register and
the judgment record that the judgment creates a judgment
lien. ORS 46.488. This lien is good for real property in the
county of the judgment, but if the debtor has real estate in
another Oregon county, another lien must be created. ORS
