I moved outta Coos Bay in 2021 and haven't been to the mall since 2020. Is the small still open? If it is have there been any positive changes or has it gotten smaller and less occupied? Just curious whats going on with that place.
Instead of chiming in with things like, “Hope you like meth,” etc., when people post here about possibly moving to town, how about listing some pros and cons? None of us really knows who will be happy here. I had my reservations before moving down in 2020 but I love it here. The pros far outweigh the cons for me. Since moving to town I’ve created three local living wage jobs ($22+/hr + benefits) and helped fulfill one of the region’s major unmet needs.
This place has so much potential. Things can improve if we stop telling people it’s a horrible place to live. It isn’t! It’s a spectacular place to live for certain types of people.

Just a thought.
Having friends that are out of town always talking about their weekly bourbon group meet ups and sample tasting and bottle sharing.
This got me wondering if anyone around here does any small group get together and samples and talks about the wonderful bourbon that everyone gets.. I know our local stores get a lot of good bottles and everyone has different tastes so I’m looking to join into a group of like minded enthusiasts..
Looking to meet up with other like-minded ladies of a certain vintage who are decidedly liberal, like to laugh and have fun, and have grown tired of the unnecessary drama the current state of the world is providing? Meeting this Saturday (6/27) at 11am at Tin Rooster in North Bend.
I’m so upset of the expanding of the port… I’m surprised redneck fisherman aren’t upset about their salmon or clamming… anywayyyy. Please tell me I’m wrong
Moving to CB next week. Where is a fun place to watch World Cup games?
TIA ⚽️
Looks like this Friday will be the final EDM night at Captain's Cabin before they close their doors.
Come out and help send it off right. The bass music community isn't going anywhere. Some of you will be pleased to know that Phat Cheetah is already looking for a NEW home for future events!
My name is Ryan(M29) and my father grew up in Coos bay. His name was Steven Lofing. born in the early 70s and played baseball growing up there. He recently passed away at only 54 and i was wondering if some how somebody on here knew him or had any stories to share. Thank you for reading.
p.s. I can post young photos of him if anyone thinks they knew him
Hi all,
