History of the NCA

The Neskowin Community Association was
established in 1970. Previous NCA activities included advocating for the
political and legislative interests of the community, exploring incorporation
of the village, and forming the Water and Sewer Districts.

The NCA is an Oregon non-profit
corporation with a volunteer board of directors. NCA’s members are residents
and property owners in the Neskowin community.  The NCA supports associate
memberships to anyone interested in the community.

 

MISSION

NCA
envisions a community that respects and protects our environment, honors the
cultural wealth of the region, embraces an atmosphere of inclusion, acceptance
and belonging, and stands for social justice. 

Hello NCA Community!

We look forward to seeing you at our Association meeting on Sunday, August 31, 2025 at 4:00 PM at the Fire Hall. Please review the attached Notice and supporting documents.

These proposed revisions to our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws were created after NCA consulted with an attorney who specializes in advising nonprofit organizations. These proposed revisions will facilitate NCA’s application for recognition as a tax-exempt organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.

If you have difficulty opening these documents, below you will find links to each of the files on our website.

Dear Friend of NHF,

Good News …

After two years of production, Neskowin: A Book of Found Photos is now at the printer, and we anticipate a shipment of books to Neskowin early this October!

We have set a retail price of $100 per copy for this elegantly bound hardcover book, which will be housed inside a protective slipcase. At 312 pages, it is organized by decade and features images of Neskowin’s history from 1880 to 1980, along with photo captions and timelines that highlight significant historical events.

As we are experiencing high demand for this keepsake volume, you are invited to prepay now. Or, we can hold a copy (or copies) in Neskowin for you to pick up at a later date. If you prefer, we can mail your book(s) to your home once we receive the shipment from the printer. For mailed copies, please add $20 per book to cover postage and packaging costs.

You can mail your order details and a check to:

Neskowin Historical Foundation

Thanks for your ongoing interest,

The Neskowin Historical Foundation

Karen Petersen, Historian of the Nesko Women’s Club:  
     We are celebrating our 100th Anniversary this year with an open house at Kiawanda Community Center on Saturday, May 3rd from 2-5 pm. NCA members are welcome to attend and we would especially encourage those who have family who were members of Nesko in previous times. We would also welcome any related memorabilia we could display at the party. There is no cost for attending and no reservation is needed. There will be music, refreshments and plenty of memorabilia and old photos to enjoy.
     One of the fundraisers for this celebration is a cookbook, photo included below. It is composed of recipes from a cookbook put together by Nesko members and issued in 1999. We have added recipes from current members plus a few from the excellent cooks at St Joseph Altar Society in Cloverdale. The book features a number of vintage photographs from earlier times in our history. It is on sale for $25 and available by contacting me (info provided below) or they will also be available at the party and at our annual 4th of July sale in Neskowin Village.
Here is the publicity info for our cookbook:
