Well, howdy, howdy, and welcome to Hooked on Oregon!

We’re coming to you live with your host Cam Parry and ridin’ shotgun, Mark Mattecheck, bringing you another packed show full of Oregon outdoor talk, local stories, and a whole lot of good company.

Today, we’ll kick things off with John Kruse from America Outdoors, joining us to talk about the NOWA Awards. Then we’ll welcome Chefs Chris and Liz Hendrickson for a flavorful conversation about teas, tinctures, and tonics.

Our ravishing roving reporter, Mel Campbell, will be in studio with the latest from around the community, and Mark Mattecheck will give us the scoop on upcoming events at North Bend Lanes.

Later in the show, we’ll check in with Handsome Josh from Englund Marine, hear the Millstead gardening report from Dana Mills, and talk antique fishing tackle with Dan Brock from D & K Collectibles.

We’ll also be joined by Denise McInturff from the BLM Coos Bay District to talk about the beautiful and historic Hinsdale Rhododendron Garden, and we’ll visit with Richard “Rick” Coleman, candidate for Coos County Commissioner, Position 3.

And of course, we’ll wrap things up with our good friends from Chuck’s Seafood and Ken Ware Chevy-GMC Trucks.

So grab a cup of coffee, settle in, and stay tuned — because we’ve got two hours of Oregon outdoors, local flavor, and coastal community coming your way right here on Hooked on Oregon!
