What is the PAC?

In September 2023, with a million dollar pledge from the Pastega Family Foundation, the Tillamook YMCA was granted the incredible opportunity to purchase the Tillamook Lanes, a local family owned and operated bowling alley since the 1940s.

The Tillamook Lanes were aptly renamed the Pastega Activity Center to honor the great legacy of the Pastega family and their commitment to community. With the help of other donors and supporters, such as the Robert Riggert Family Foundation, building improvements spanned the course of 2024.

In January 2025 the PAC was nominated and awarded the title of Development Project of the Year at the Tillamook Area Chamber of Commerce Community Awards Banquet. 

The PAC is proud to display two murals, produced by Tillamook High School 2026 graduates as part of their senior project graduation requirements. Mural installation was overseen by Tillamook YMCA Youth Engagement Director Eric Sappington, who also oversees the Court 4 youth space at the YMCA’s main facility at 610 Stillwell Ave.
