Marine endured segregation, receives Congressional medal By Kathy Reed Staff reporter
Allen Frazier says he really doesn’t understand what all the fuss is about. The charming 85-year-old was awarded a Congressional Gold Medal by members of the U.S. Marine Corps 4th Land and Support Battalion from Joint Base LewisMcChord Thursday outside his Oak Harbor home. The Congressional Gold Medal, the highest civilian award in the nation, along with the Presidential Medal of Freedom, is awarded to those who perform an outstanding act of service to the country. “I don’t see where I did anything special,” Frazier said. “We did things and put up with things most people
in the military didn’t have to, but that was the time then.” Frazier is one of the surviving Marines of Montford Point, a satellite section of the U.S. Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, located near Jacksonville, N.C. Montford Point was a segregated camp where African-American Marine recruits received basic training. Between 1942 and 1949, more than 20,000 men trained at Montford Point. During that time, none of the black recruits were allowed to enter the main base of Camp Lejeune unless they were accompanied by a white Marine. “The first time I went to mass — I was the only Catholic — they had to bring a truck to take me to the main headquarters to See medal. page A4
Oak Harbor residents will get the chance to meet the three candidates for the police chief position this Thursday night. Citizens, however, probably won’t know much about the candidates going into the low-key venue because the city won’t release their resumes. The city is inviting the public to a meet-and-greet session with the candidates from 6:30 to 8 p.m., Thursday, Sept. 6 at the Oak Harbor Fire Station. The candidates are Edgar Green of Port Townsend, Julius “Phil” Schenck of Sunnyside and Andrew Reinhardt of Prescott, Ariz. Mayor Scott Dudley said the three men are the only remaining of the original 15 applicants for the job. All the others, including former police Lt. John Dyer, have withdrawn their names. “We’re optimistic,” the mayor said. “There are three left and I’m certain they are all dedicated to making Oak Harbor a safer place.” Following the public session, the three candidates will be interviewed Friday by a panel that includes members of law enforcement, citizens and City Council members. The interviews start at 9 a.m. and will continue for much of the day. The panel’s goal is to forward the names of two of the candidates to the mayor for final selection. Dudley said the panel interviews will be open to the public. The city’s interim human resources director, after conferring with city admin-
istration, refused to release the candidates’ resumes. The press release from the city included no information about the men beyond their city of residence. By comparison, resumes of police chief candidates were made available to the media and public during the selection process under the former mayor. Dudley fired former Police Chief Rick Wallace in June, just before the City Council was set to adopt a measure that would have protected him from being terminated as an at-will employee. Dudley had tried to force Wallace to retire this summer. Since taking office in January, Dudley has also fired the city administrator, the fire chief and two city attorneys. Lt. Tim Sterkel, a longtime member of the department, has been acting police chief since Wallace left. Sterkel supported Dudley in last year’s campaign. City Council members, however, tweaked the police chief job description so that he no longer qualifies for the chief position. To the consternation of City Council members, Dudley delayed the process of hiring a permanent police chief after the council declared a financial emergency this summer. He argued that having interim people in administrative positions saves the city money because those people are essentially doing two jobs. See chief, page A7

Island Transit to rethink plans for road realignment By JUSTIN BURNETT Staff reporter
Persistent grumbling from the community about Island Transit’s plans to realign Parker Road with Highway 20 in Central Whidbey appears to have paid off. Following a meeting attended by about 70 people at the Pacific Rim Institute of Environmental Studies Wednesday, transit officials confirmed that they are calling time out to consider new design alternatives. “We’re going back to the drawing board,” said Martha Rose, executive director of Island Transit. “We’re going to be looking at all kinds of alternatives, from roundabouts to rumble strips,” she said. Rose made it clear the transportation agency is making no promises but she said state and county partners in the project have already begun working with Island Transit officials on possible solutions. She remained tight-lipped about any specifics, but said any new plan may incorporate Morris Road, which was a subject of concern at the meeting. She said she was optimistic that a solution will
be found. Island Transit is in the process of building a new headquarters at their current base on Highway 20 just south of Coupeville. Part of the current plan is to create a second entrance and realign Parker Road. The existing road end would be closed off as would Old Smith Prairie Road. The triangleshaped section of field would be bisected by a re-routed Parker Road and intersect with the highway. The plan has been ruffling feathers in the community since it was unveiled. Most of the concerns have been safety related and centered on the lack of a left turn lane for motorists traveling south on the highway. Island Transit officials have cited a lack of funding as the primary obstacle and state Department of Transportation officials maintain that they can’t require a left-turn lane and don’t have the money to build it themselves. The controversy has continued to simmer, turning the heads of elected officials and even birthing a committee of Central Whidbey residents who are formally opposed to

Central Whidbey resident Barry Rix, center, reacts to discussion at a community meeting Wednesday concerning Island Transit’s proposal to realign Parker Road. the road plan. State Rep. Norma Smith, R-Clinton, who said she became involved after fielding numerous calls from worried constituents, organized and held her second community meeting on the issue this week. It was attended by a host of Central Whidbey residents, a handful of elected officials and political candidates, representatives from the state Department
of Transportation, Island County Public Works and Island Transit. Tensions were high at the meeting as residents were clearly frustrated by the plan, the potential dangers of the configuration and the fact that the design hasn’t been altered despite the pleas of the community. Many begged for the plans to be put on hold. “The solution is, if you can’t make it safe, don’t do any-

thing,” said Sarah Schmidt, a Coupeville resident. “Who’s liable so we can sue them?” echoed Barry Rix, also of Coupeville. Although previous concerns had seemed centered on the missing left-turn lane, Morris Road became a hot topic at the meeting. Many felt that it was a dangerous intersection and the Parker Road configuration would only make things worse. “What you’re doing is creating a situation where you have more accidents but don’t solve the problem,” said
Joe Sheldon of Coupeville. Todd Harrison, with the state Department of Transportation, told the tough crowd that he agreed the configuration wasn’t perfect but explained that their hands are tied. They can’t force an applicant — in this case Island Transit — to make a change based on community concern alone. The plans meet accepted engineering standards, which makes the installation of a left-turn lane Island Transit’s choice. As for the state electing to put it in itself, it’s a matter of available funding. “The bottom line is we don’t have enough money,” Harrison said. During the meeting, Rose said Island Transit has been able to dig up funding to install a right-turn lane for motorists heading north but money for the left-turn lane remains elusive. However, Rose said later that efforts to find the needed resources will continue. It’s unclear whether a new configuration would make the issue a moot point, but she did say she has high hopes the money can be found in the state’s transportation budget. “We’re going to work together to get a special appropriation to get this done,” Rose said.

Guns, kerosene draw SWAT response, suspect arrested By JESSIE STENSLAND Staff reporter
Deputies with the Island County Sheriff’s Office unleashed their armored vehicle and donned SWAT gear Tuesday evening in response to a report that a mentally unstable man may have barricaded himself in a Crescent Harbor Road home with automatic weapons and cans of kerosene. Sheriff Mark Brown said the incident ended well when the 29-year-old man gave himself up, but the situation was tense. “It was pretty scary for awhile, because there could have been a different ending,” he said. “It was a nail biter.” The suspect, Christopher Rogers, appeared in Island County Superior Court Wednesday afternoon. The judge found there was probable cause to hold him in jail on suspicion of felony harassment and attempted arson; he set bail at $50,000.

North Whidbey resident Christopher Rogers appears in Island County Superior Court Wednesday with an attorney. The sheriff department’s SWAT team arrested him after he allegedly threatened to burn down his house. After reading the police report in court, Rogers loudly told his attorney that it wasn’t accurate and that he had willingly come out of the house as soon as he realized the deputies were there. Brown explained that
Rogers’ father and brother fled their home at E. Crescent Harbor Road Tuesday out of fear. The father then called 911 and reported that he was afraid Rogers was going to burn the house down. The man said that Rogers
had developed mental problems and was becoming increasingly paranoid and angry. Rogers had become upset the day before and brought home two five-gallon cans of kerosene. He allegedly told his younger brother
Ranger fired after drinking and driving in park By JESSIE STENSLAND Staff reporter
A park ranger was fired from her job at Deception Pass State Park in August for drinking and driving, according to a state parks spokeswoman. Debra Lynn Wyman was arrested on suspicion of DUI inside the park at about 1:30 a.m. on June 4. She told the arresting officer that she was off duty, but she was in her uniform and her service weapon was in the back seat, the Island County prosecu-
tor’s office reported. Wyman blew 0.105 and 0.098 in the breathalyzer. The legal limit in the state for blood-alcohol content is 0.08. Sandy Mealing, a spokesman for state parks, said an investigation was conducted and Wyman was fired Aug. 15. Wyman was drunk in the park and in uniform, which are violations of law, she said. Mealing said Wyman had been drinking at one of the host sites, in her uniform, and then attempted to drive home in her own vehicle.
The officer released Wyman to a friend and she was not booked. Island County Prosecutor Greg Banks said Wyman had no priors, so she was allowed to plead in district court this week to negligent driving in the first degree, which is an “alcohol offense” that counts
as a prior if she ever gets another DUI. Wyman received a suspended jail sentence and was ordered to pay $941 in fines and fees. She’s on two years probation and must get an alcohol-abuse evaluation and complete treatment, if prescribed.
that he “planned on burning down the home with possibly his father in it,” according to a report by Lt. Mike Hawley. Rogers flew into another rage Tuesday, precipitating the 911 call. In addition to the kerosene, Rogers had an AK-47 rifle and two semi-automatic pistols in the house. He had installed many security cameras around the property and could monitor them from inside the house. Given that information, Hawley decided to call in the department’s emergency response team. Brown said he watched the scene unfold and was very impressed with the team, which was led by Sgt. Mike Beech. “He had a tactical plan and they executed it flawlessly,”
he said. Brown said the department’s armored vehicle, which he calls “the tank,” led the way as the team approached the home at about 7 p.m. Rogers allegedly tried to escape out the back, but ran inside after seeing a deputy. He then went out the front door and surrendered following a short negotiation, the sheriff said. The deputies found the guns and the kerosene in plain view inside Rogers’ bedroom, Hawley wrote in his report. In court, Senior Deputy Prosector Eric Ohme said Rogers was taken to the hospital for a mental evaluation, but was discharged because he wouldn’t submit to a blood test.

medal CONTINUED FROM A1 church,” Frazier recalled. “They had to find me a separate pew in the back.” According to Frazier, Wednesday was the only day Montford Point Marines were allowed to go to the Post Exchange to shop and they weren’t allowed to exchange merchandise if they bought the wrong thing. In order to go to see a movie at the base theater, they had to march in as a group and sit in a certain section in the back. “To stand fire watch for Montford Point Marines was truly a fire watch,” he said. “Where the rest of the Marines had steam heat, we had three pot-bellied stoves that we had to tend to. It might sound crazy now but it wasn’t crazy at the time.”
Started at sea When Frazier was 16 years old, he entered the Merchant Marines. Because it was during World War II, the Merchant Marines essentially served as another branch of the Armed Forces. It was a dangerous time to sail the ocean, even in a merchant vessel. “The money was fine if you could survive,” Frazier said. “If you were on a ship that went to Europe and
came back in one piece, that’s where all the bonuses came in. “The German submarines would wait off the coast and sometimes they’d trail a merchant vessel almost all the way home and then launch a torpedo at it, even when it was empty,” he continued. “So many Allied merchant ships got blown out of the water.” But Frazier, who laughingly admitted to making a lot of bad decisions when he was young, signed off the Merchant Marines after his third ship. Because the U.S. was at war, he had to choose to enlist in one of the Armed Forces or be drafted. He chose the Marines and was sent to Montford Point. “For a kid like me, born in New Jersey, having to put up with all this business was really something,” he said. After two years in the Marine Corps, Frazier got out and went to school, getting an associates degree. Then he went back to the Marines and went on to serve another 20 years, retiring as a master gunnery sergeant. He went on to work as a Civil Servant and following that, he took temporary jobs to keep himself busy. Now divorced, he has five children — three daughters and two sons — but no grandchildren. When the opportunity arose for him to travel to

Washington, D.C. in June for the official gold medal ceremony for the Montford Point Marines, he declined. “I didn’t want to go to the formal ceremony,” he said. “Every time I think about some of the things that happened, it gets me stirred up.” It’s clear talking about his experiences at Montford Point stir up memories. Frazier teared up as he talked about President Roosevelt’s wife, and all she did to help end segregation in the military. Even though Frazier is very humble about the role he played in the nation’s history, it was plain to see he enjoyed talking with the Marine officers there to bestow the honor, which included a letter from President Obama, read by Lt. Col. Jeff Symons. “Embodying the Marine Corps motto of Semper Fidelis, Always Faithful, these heroes paved the way for future generations of warriors, regardless of background, to serve in the finest military the world has ever known,” Symons read. “This is outstanding,” Frazier said. “I really appreciate the effort, because there’s not too many of us left. “I consider myself damn lucky to be here talking to you,” he continued. “I kind of get choked up.” “What you guys have done for the Marine Corps is beyond words,” Symons said. On the back of the medal is the inscription “For outstanding perseverance

Maj. Thomas Johnson. “He paved the way for me. It makes you feel proud.” “It’s an honor to be able to meet someone who is a living legend in the Marine Corps,” agreed Symons.
Chapter closed Montford Point was deactivated in 1949, following
President Harry Truman’s Executive Order 9981, which ended segregation in the military. After that, AfricanAmerican recruits were sent to Parris Island and Camp Pendleton. The memory of Montford Point lives on, although that area of Camp Lejeune is now referred to as Camp Johnson, named after the late Sgt. Maj. Gilbert “Hashmark” Johnson, a drill instructor at Montford Point who served during World War II and the Korean War. “It’s the only base in the Marine Corps named after
an African-American,” said Symons. Frazier may never be convinced that his role in history is worthy of a Congressional Gold Medal, but he may be the only one who believes that. “Seeing what he’s done and the hard times he went through, it’s a learning experience for us for the future and we should acknowledge that,” said Frazier’s neighbor and friend, Elizabeth Tellez. “With the way the world is changing, every day we see bad news. It’s good to have these proud moments to treasure.”

IN OUR OPINION
Online policing an imperfect science A newspaper’s online comment areas, like its letters page in print, ought to be a place for constructive community conversation where people can share opinions about community issues of broad concern, with the goal of fostering dialogue and an informed and engaged community. Unlike with a news story, we do not fact-check online comments posted by readers. We simply do not have the resources. As a result, readers unfortunately can expect to see inaccuracies, distortion and even outright lies. Fortunately, the people who are perusing these comments are generally adults who are able to make up their own minds about what they read. While a few people abuse this forum that is provided – at no charge – by the newspapers here on Whidbey Island, most recognize the value of stating opinions in a way that respects the rights of others to hold views that differ. Until recently, our newspapers used a system that allowed comments to be posted anonymously, leading at times to an unpleasant “barroom brawl” atmosphere that had little positive value to the community. Earlier this year, our websites began using the social-media website Facebook to manage online comments. The change was in response to concerns about some anonymous comments that were, at best, inaccurate, and at worst, downright mean and ugly. The idea was that if people are required to use their real names, they would be much more likely to be civil and thoughtful in their comments. For the most part, that has worked. Some of the trolls who revel in posting personal attacks on fellow commenters have disappeared, or at least have reined in their vitriol. But the change to the Facebook comment management system has brought a whole new set of challenges, with some people complaining that their comments are being “censored” on our websites. The new system uses filters that check for obscenities and swear words, but those filters have serious shortcomings. Apparently the system struggles to tell the difference between the word “ass” and perfectly acceptable words that contain those letters, such as “assess,” “harass” and “asset.” In order to allow that comment to be posted, a newspaper staff person has to log in, read the comment and then approve it. With a small news staff, it’s not unusual for there to be a delay in getting comments approved and posted. The online comment system isn’t perfect, but we do our best to provide what we believe is a valuable public service. For those who insist we are somehow “censoring” their views, we’d like to remind folks that the entire World Wide Web is open and available for them to post whatever they like. As a newspaper, and as a business, we reserve the right to manage the content on our websites in a way that we feel encourages an exchange of views and ideas that benefits the community rather than harms it. – Kasia Pierzga, Publisher

Letters to the editor Homola warrants reelection Legally the only qualifications necessary to run for any elected office are: 1) that a person is a registered voter residing within the appropriate district and 2) that they have the money to pay a filing fee. They don’t need an education or past experience. They don’t have to speak well or be articulate. In the last commissioner election we learned that you don’t have to be factual, courteous or diplomatic. However, who would be inclined to vote for somebody who met only the minimum requirements or works to obstruct our essential public services? Would any employer hires a person simply because they show up and then obstructs progress! For our Island County Commissioners seats, this year it’s clearly evident that voters can decide between
claims and unsubstantiated statements made by newcomers and the demonstrated qualifications of the incumbents. In the race for County Commissioner for District #2 there is only one candidate who has the education, job qualifications and proven track record of keeping our county solvent while maintaining essential and mandated services through these difficult post recession years. That’s Angie Homola. Angie demonstrated four years ago that her formal education, professional work experience as an architect and practical experience as a carpenter, machinist and grassroots community supporter qualified her to do the job well. Her time on the job keeping the county solvent and functioning with increased public access and transparency, in spite of formidable challenges, has built a solid foundation for the continued well being of our county.

Tired of dodging your dog’s waste Though I love dogs and have had many, I currently do not own one. This is a letter to those who do own dogs. When I walk down our beautiful new sidewalks on Pioneer Way I find it really frustrating that I have to dodge your dog’s waste that you have left in the middle of the walk. This shows your complete disrespect for others and is a reflection of your true character. If you cannot clean up after your beloved pet leave it home. As an afterthought, if you are going shopping leave your
pet home then also. Other shoppers do not enjoy tripping over your leash or having your dog’s nose pushed into our butt. Thank you! Donald R. Hubner Oak Harbor
This year’s fair was Fairtastic The Island County Fair Association did a wonderful Fair this year. The grounds were friendly and clean each day. The fair staff was very accommodating to the patrons. My six year old granddaughter wanted to throw darts and the staff member made it so she would win a prize. The midway shows were fun to watch and listen to. My granddaughter and I look forward to being part of the parade next year. Again; the 2012 Fair was “Fairtastic.” Tucker Stevens Langley

Signs point to safety on Polnell Road By JUSTIN BURNETT Staff reporter
Mariner’s Cove residents are breathing a sigh of relief this week because cars may soon be buzzing past their community a little slower. On Monday, the Island County Commissioners gave the green light for county road crews to take measures that will help slow traffic past the North Whidbey waterfront community’s two entrances off Polnell Road. The decision brought to a close more than one and a half years of effort from neighbors and is really a success story in which elected officials, government leaders and constituents all worked together to achieve a common goal. “We really appreciate everything the county and you as commissioners have done,” said Gary Hansen, a Mariner’s Cove resident. Since 2011, Hansen and other community members have been working to reduce the speed limit on Polnell Road as it travels past
Fireweed and Mariner Beach drives, the two accesses to the small neighborhood. They complained that the 50 mph speed limit was too fast and that a serious accident was just waiting to happen. Following the outlined procedures required to lower a speed limit, residents drafted a petition and gathered more than 100 signatures. Island County Public Works officials took action and tested the area to see if a speed limit reduction was warranted, according to nationally accepted engineering standards. It did not meet the test. Several warning signs were posted but residents, such as Hansen, said that wasn’t enough and submitted a second petition, this time with 112 signatures. Island County Commissioner Angie Homola went out to the site to see the problem for herself and argued on behalf of the community during a work session. Normally, speed limit reduction proposals that do not meet the engineering standards are rejected or not

pursued. However, Public Works Director Bill Oakes has also visited the site, independently of Homola, and agreed that sight distance was a problem. It was agreed that additional testing was warranted. Those results indicated that while a reduction may not be justified, speed advisory signs are. Oakes said a 40 mph advisory limit would be posted for westbound traffic, approaching Fireweed Drive, and a 35 mph advisory limit for eastbound motorists,
approaching Mariner Beach Drive. The signs will be yellow and black and bordered by flashing LED lights. An advisory limit is not mandatory, but drivers who exceed it could run the risk of getting a ticket for going too fast for conditions. Homola commended the community and public works staff for working together to solve the problem. She called it an “amazing public process” that resulted in a solution that all could be happy with.

FALL PREP PREVIEW 2012
Oak Harbor, Coupeville teams take aim at fall titles OHHS Football Wildcats look to replace record-setting pair The Oak Harbor High School football team is about to find out what life is like without Josiah Miller and Brent Ryan. The two all-conference running backs complied the second and third best single-season rushing efforts in school history last year while leading Oak Harbor to a team scoring record (45.7 points per game) and an 8-2 wonloss mark. Miller twice earned first-team honors as running back, defensive back and kick returner. He also handled the punting duties. Coach Jay Turner said, “They were both tremendous running backs, but we really like the guys that we have coming back. We will use more of a ‘running back by committee’ approach as we feel that we have five-six really good running backs who all have their different strengths.” Included in that group is senior Isaiah Trower and juniors Julian Faralan and Sheyenne Sams who put up impressive numbers in 2011 when given a chance. Each aver-
aged more than 10 yards per carry: Trower 13.84, Faralan 12.3 and Sams 14.73. Trower was also a second-team, all-league defensive back. Other lettermen returning to the backfield are seniors Jon Lanningham, Dakota Sinchak, Michael Maletto, Fred Webster and Michael Labelle and junior Nathanael Stanford. They will be running behind “one of the larger lines that we have ever had,” Turner said. One of the team’s strengths, Turner added, will not only be the O-line but its defensive counterpart. Among the returning lettermen in the line are seniors Austyn Walker, Austin Pulley, Jeremy Foster, Josh Crebbin and Dayne Herron; and juniors Troy Studervant, Jeff Rude, Matt Zafra and Ray Quinday. Foster was a first-team, all-league defensive lineman and second-team offensive choice last fall. Walker was second-team tight end Guiding it all will be senior quarterback Ian Kolste, who took over QB duties midway through his sophomore season. Kolste earned all-league honorable mention while hitting 54 passes in 109 attempts for 12 touchdowns and seven interceptions last year. His top returning receiver is Walker, who had six catches for 87 yards. Key newcomers are senior JoJo Webster and sophomores Dejon Devroe, Jackson Constant, Tyler Adamson and CJ Meders. The team’s weaknesses are inexperience (Turner expects three sophomores to see plenty of varsity time) and the lack of a veteran kicker. Strengths, in addition to line play, include depth (105 players, not counting freshmen, are on the team), speed at the skill positions and experience at QB. Last year’s impressive season ended with a loss in the first round of the playoffs. Turner said, “We are setting higher goals than just making the playoffs this year.” To get there, the team will have to go through preseason favorite MarysvillePilchuck, according to Turner. Oak Harbor opens the season with three nonleague games against 4A opponents. The Wildcats played Snohomish at home last night (results were not available at press time), travel to Arlington at 7 p.m. Friday, Sept. 7, and host Lake Stevens at 7 p.m. Friday, Sept. 14.
CHS Football New coach, new schedule greet Coupeville gridders
John Fisken/Whidbey News-Times
Three-year starter Jeremy Foster will anchor Oak Harbor’s big, talented line.
Change is plentiful for the Coupeville High School football program this fall. It starts at the top where Tony Maggio takes over as head coach. Former coach Jay Silver left after two years for personal reasons and now leads Mount Vernon. Another significant change is the Wolves’ schedule. Coupeville, the smallest school by far in enrollment in the Cascade Conference,

Caleb Valko is one of several Coupeville linemen who received post-season honors in ‘11. will no longer play the larger schools from the league, skipping 2A Cedarcrest, Lakewood and powerhouse Archbishop Murphy. This should help Coupeville be more competitive and protect it physically. The Wolves won only one conference game the past two years and were 3-16 overall. The pain went beyond the scoreboard; last year half of the 35-man squad ended the year on the injury list. Another change will be the basic offensive set, switching to the wing from the spread. Coupeville will run a more balanced attack, Maggio said, in reference to last year’s passoriented offense. And, of course, there will be a change in personnel. Gone are a handful of seniors, including dynamic offensive weapon Mitch Pelroy and defensive stalwart Dalton Engle. Maggio said the toughest part will be replacing the pair’s leadership. On the field, he will look to Jake Tumblin to pick up some of the slack. Tumblin moves from quarterback to wing to better “utilize his speed,” Maggio said. Returning lettermen along with junior Tumblin are seniors Danny Savalza, Kole Kellison, Riley Boyd, Caleb Valko, Serigio Guerro and Anthony Maggio; juniors Wade Schaef, Gunnar Langvold, Brett Arnold, Ben Haight, Nick Weatherford, Nick Streubel, Bryce Fleming and Jared Dickson; and sophomores Joel Walstad, Korbin Korzan, Miguel Rodriguez, Josh Bayne, Carson Riser, Aaron Wright and Matthew Hampton. Key newcomers, according to coach Maggio, are senior Paul Schmakeit and juniors Alex Schmakeit, Joey Edwards, Kyle Kendall and Raymond Beiriger. Maggio said he also has “a bunch of tal-
ented freshmen.” The strength of the team will be up front. “Our offensive and defensive lines are very good,” Maggio said. Anchoring the line is Maggio’s son, Anthony, a second-team, all-league choice last year. He will be joined by honorable mention returnees Valko and Streubel. Langvold and Korzan are battling for the starting quarterback spot, Arnold and Savalza will handle fullback and Fleming, Bayne and Dickson are in mix with Tumblin to play wing. Coach Maggio added, “Team speed is better overall than last season. We are a stronger team as the kids were in the weight room all year and all summer. All of our kids can catch the ball well and run good routes.” The team is young (only six seniors) and depth is a concern, according to Maggio. “I expect that we will compete in every game,” Maggio said, “and by compete I mean these kids will have the chance to win every game in the fourth quarter.” The new-look Wolves played Bellevue Christian Thursday (see story on page 11). Coupeville hosts Port Townsend at 5:30 p.m. Friday, Sept. 7.
OHHS Volleyball Veteran Wildcats ready for battle in strong North Who’s the volleyball team to beat in the Wesco 3A North? Oak Harbor coach Kerri Molitor’s response: “All of them.” The division, which Molitor called “very strong,” is well-balanced and the rush to the title will most likely come down to the wire. Look for the Wildcats to be among the leaders of the pack. Oak Harbor, which finished second in 2011 (8-2, 11-6), returns six players who saw extensive playing time last fall. Included among the returnees is most of the firepower, which centers around senior setter Taylor Nienhuis. Seniors Roshel Muzzall and Hannah Salmons will handle the outside, junior Kayleigh Harper the middle, senior Ally McGuire the right side and senior Kelsey Rankin either the middle or the right. Nienhuis and Harper were second-team, allconference players last year; Muzzall received honorable mention. Molitor said the team’s key newcomers are junior defensive specialist Deanna Ruben and freshman middle Claire Anderson. Gone are two of the team’s quickest players, Janine DeGuzman and Christina Alexander. Molitor said the team will make up for the loss through experience and confidence.

She said, “The girls are playing well together. They know they cannot rely on one or two individuals to carry the team. Everyone is stepping up to the challenge and holding her own.” Molitor isn’t making any major changes: “I always set high expectations for the girls and they always come through. We have a more aggressive offense, so we may be working on mixing some new offensive strategies into our game.” She sees the team’s cohesion and experience as its strengths: “The team plays together as one. They support each other when things are going well and when things are challenging. We are well-rounded, obviously have some experience on our side and the girls work really hard.” Molitor expects her team to be “competitive throughout the season, as well as setting high goals for post-season play.” She added, “I am blessed with a wonderful group of girls to work with. We are all looking forward to this season.” Oak Harbor hosts a jamboree today at 9 a.m. and then travels to state 2A power Burlington-Edison at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 4, for a nonleague match.
OHHS Soccer Oak Harbor returns most of last fall’s lineup
CHS Volleyball Wolves’ attitude, effort help overcome losses The Coupeville High School volleyball team, like all squads, loses players to graduation each year, but the Wolves have taken a hit in another area -- transfers. Three players -- half a lineup -- who would have most likely started for Coupeville this year transferred to other schools over the past two seasons. To compound the problem, a fourth potential starter switched to soccer this fall.

Setter Taylor Neinhuis will guide the Oak Harbor offense this fall. head coach Toni Crebbin. She added, “We raise the bar and tell the girls that every day we strive to get better. We have years like last year to look back on, when we succeed when we’re not supposed to, and it encourages the girls that they can do it again.” Although Coupeville returns only two starters, middles senior Bessie Walstad and sophomore Hailey Hammer, and one other letter winner, junior Breeannna Messner, Crebbin expects her club to be competitive in the Cascade Conference: “Our love of the game and heart will get us further than people expect us to…I expect we will be in a close fight to finish top four.” Walstad was an all-league, honorable mention choice in 2011. Some of the holes in the lineup, Crebbin said, will be filled by newcomers Megan Oakes (setter), Madeline Strasburg (outside hitter) and Amanda Fabrizi (defensive specialist). Crebbin said the Wolves’ strength is their attitude and their weakness is lack of experience. She added, “One thing that is both a strength and a weakness is that I have a lot of versatile girls that can play more than one position. That is a strength in that it gives me options and depth, but, on the other hand, I don’t have a lot of girls who really dominate in any one position.” Coupeville takes part in the Oak Harbor jamboree at 9 a.m. today and goes to Cedarcrest at 7 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 6. The first home match is Thursday, Sept. 13, with South Whidbey at 7 p.m.
As a young, inexperienced team in 2011, the Oak Harbor High School soccer squad took its lumps in the loss column, now it is ready to rack up some wins. The team (which was 0-13-3 last year) is still young but not inexperienced. Coach Jeff Laiblin said, “We are a young team overall, but we have the right mix of veterans to take this team forward.” The Wildcats return nine letter winners, and only four (Megan Duhrkopf, Jember Jansen, McKenzie Schneider and Anne TePaske) are seniors. Also back are juniors Chelsea Atkinson, Faith Franssen and Kyndra Sherman and sophomores Nalani Gabbert and Hayley Lundstrom. Schneider was a second-team, all-conference performer last fall, and Gabbert was honorable mention. The Wildcats would have had even more returning talent but five varsity players from last fall will not compete this year for a variety of reasons, according to Laiblin. A couple could return from injury in midseason and have the “potential to have a positive impact on the program,” according to Laiblin. “That being said,” Laiblin said, “I feel this is the most talented group of players that I have had, and I feel they are ready to make a run at ending the decade-long drought of no postseason play.” The nine returnees will get help from key newcomers junior Courtney Harrison; sophomores Alyssa Eden, Rebecca Pabona, Makenzie Perry and Lauryn Plush; and freshmen Suzanna Kaltenbach and Ayala Muller. Laiblin said, “We have more players with year-around soccer experience then we had in the last three years combined, thus they are more skilled, quicker. They are stronger because they have been in the weight room.” Lack of depth is a weakness, according to Laiblin, adding, “We have to stay healthy.” He said, “My expectations are that the
ladies will first grow as individuals and as a team as we work to achieve our goal of making the postseason for the first time in over a decade. The talent is here…and if we stay healthy we can achieve that goal.” Oak Harbor starts the season with nonleague matches against Whidbey Island opponents South Whidbey and Coupeville. The Wildcats host South Whidbey at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 4, and travel to Coupeville at 6 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 6.
CHS Soccer Fit Wolves make run at scoring more goals
Jim Waller/Whidbey News-Times
A strong senior class, including Anna Bailey, will lift the Wolves this year. Fitness is the goal for the Coupeville High School soccer team, according to first-year coach Dan d’Almeida. And that goal, he hopes, leads to goals. The Wolves struggled to find the back of the net last fall, scoring only three goals in 14 league matches. D’Almeida is implementing a counter-attack offense to help generate more scoring opportunities, but to counter attack, his players have to be in good physical shape. He said, “Our focus in fitness first. From that, we can build a counter attack and play smarter tactically to increase our scoring chances. With more pace and aggressiveness, I’m hopeful that we can put more balls in the net while continuing to make progress on the defensive side of the ball.” Last year’s scoring drought, d’Almeida said, wasn’t “a lack of a striker but because our build-up was limited so we didn’t get the ball in our attacking third nearly often enough.” The Wolves will lean on a talented group of seniors, multi-letter winners forward Kelsey Miranda, defender Anna Bailey, midfielder Amanda d’Almeida and midfielder Haley Marx. D’Almeida, the coach’s daughter, is a two-time all-conference selection.

Six other letter winners return, junior defender Victoria Wellman; sophomore midfielders Marisa Etzell, Christine Fields, Ana Luvera and Erin Rosenkranz; and sophomore defender Ivy Luvera. Coach d’Almeida said, “Besides the returning varsity players, I expect contributions from Jacki Ginnings and Mickayla Levine.” Key newcomers, d’Almeida said, are senior forward Madison Tisa-McPhee, and sophomores McKayla Bailey, Makana Stone and Jennifer Spark. “We have a nice mix of veterans and solid underclassmen who are veteran club or rec players,” d’Almeida said. “The girls are bonding nicely as a team this season…I believe the seniors and sophomores are more than ready to step in and make strong contributions to a well-organized, team defense.” He said a “big priority” is finding “a reliable goalie and an additional central defender.” The Wolves had a great first week of practice and are working hard, d’Almeida said. He said because of the strength of the league, “expecting big results is certainly not realistic.” He added, “However, we have great pride and I believe the girls will pull more than a few surprises.” The Wolves begin the season at home at 6 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 6, with Oak Harbor.
OHHS Tennis Veteran singles players lead Oak Harbor attack The Oak Harbor High School tennis team headed into the 2011 season with an untested lineup and the young Wildcats struggled. This year an experienced singles corps should help Oak Harbor improve on its 2-14 record.

doubles last year, is set to play No. 2 singles. Sophomore Carter Saar, who played second singles much of last season, is slated to play in the No. 3 slot. Junior Harrison Miller, who bounced between singles and doubles play in the past, will play No. 4 singles. Three other lettermen -- senior Sean Kelley, junior Antonio Unpingco and sophomore Tom Dale -- return and will help make up the three doubles teams. Key newcomers, according to coach Horace Mells, are senior Keifer Herman and juniors Casiano Atienza, Ziwei Peng, Jose Dimaculangan and Jozef Mendoza, and they should help fill out the doubles teams. Mells said, “Our four singles players have shown great improvement since last season and should be competitive in the majority of their matches. “Even though all but two of our doubles players are first time varsity, they should also be competitive by the start of the season and continue to raise their level of play during the season.” Mells added, “Our goal is to work hard and finish on top of our division.” Oak Harbor starts the season on the road with nonleague matches at Lake Stevens Wednesday, Sept. 5, and Mountlake Terrace Friday, Sept. 7, at 3:30 p.m.. The first home match, and the league opener, follows at 3:30 p.m. Monday, Sept. 10, with Stanwood.
CHS Tennis Road to district crown gets tougher in 2012 Coupeville has been the dominating force in District 1 1A tennis recently, but its path to another title became much more difficult this fall with the addition of tradition-rich South Whidbey. For years the Wolves and Friday Harbor were the only 1A schools with tennis programs in District 1, and Coupeville has controlled the series in recent years. South Whidbey, with a dip in enrollment, drops from 2A and joins them this season. Coupeville and South Whidbey have met each year in nonleague matches, and the Wolves have yet to beat the Falcons in CHS coach Ken Stange’s eight years. Stange said, “While South Whidbey is always difficult competition, I’m hoping the raising of the bar will inspire us to work that much harder. I welcome the challenge.” The addition of the Falcons will also make it more difficult for Coupeville senior Nathan Lamb to capture his fourth straight individual district title. As a freshman and sophomore, Lamb earned the district doubles crown; last year he was singles champion. He returns this season in the No. 1 singles slot for the Wolves. The team’s only other senior, Ben Wehrman, finished third in district in singles in 2011. “Nathan and Ben were solid in singles last season and will continue to do so,” Stange said. Also returning is sophomore Aaron Curtin, who placed second in district doubles with then-senior Taku Yamauchi. Other returnees are juniors Jason Knoll, Brandon Kelley, Brian Norris, Jake McCormick, Cameron Boyd-Eck and Konrad Borden. Newcomers include junior Ben Etzell and freshmen Dawson d’Almeida, Sebastian Davis, Zane Bundy, Loren Nelson, Connor McCormick, Shane Squire and Loren Nelson. “I expect my seasoned players,” Stange said, “to augment their games while the new-

I’ve also got some returning players to keep us competitive in singles.” Stange said the team’s inexperience could be a problem and no “truly dominant doubles team” has emerged. Stange said his team may take some “beatings from the private schools” but it will help the Wolves “learn better tennis.” Among his goals, Stange looks to advance at least one singles player and one doubles team to quad-district: “We will just have to get
The nucleus of the Oak Harbor High School swim and dive team will consist of five veterans of the state meet. Therese Desquitado, Mollie Briddell, Nicole Vagt and Irysh Concepcion all represented the Wildcats at state in 2011. Also returning after missing last season with an injury is senior Akasha Trisler, who qualified for state in 2010 in the 200 individual medley and 100 breaststroke. The quintet will get a boost from sophomore Emily Huffer, joining the high-school team for the first time after posting times as a member of the North Whidbey Aquatic Club that meet state-qualifying high-school standards. Four other letter winners are back from last fall’s team which finished with a 7-6 regular-season record: Tricia Desquitado, Sarah Baxter, Allison Hoffmire and Danae Nash. In addition of Huffer, another key newcomer, according to coach Amy Merkley, is Lauren Vagt. Six other experienced swimmers who are new to the program or returning after missing last year are Makenzi Schulle, Kennedy Trisler, Elise Still, Sophie Dickinson, Mariel Empinado and Marissa Morris. Merkley said, “We have a lot of depth going into this season and will look to place in the top three at districts and have a successful dual meet season.” The Wildcats, however, will be hurt by the lack of divers. Merkley said, “At this point we do not have a volunteer dive coach and have no one training for that event.” Oak Harbor travels to Marysville-Pilchuck for the North Division Jamboree at 3:30 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 6, and then hosts EdmondsWoodway at 6 p.m. Monday, Sept. 10.

OHHS Cross Country ‘Cats work to continue recent run of success Coming off one of the most successful seasons in school history, the Oak Harbor High School cross country team looks to replace the depth that helped the boys win their first district title in 40 years and the girls finish second. The Wildcats girls went on to place 10th at state and the boys 11th as the two local teams qualified for the state meet in back-to-back years for the first time. Only once before, in 1995, had both teams qualified for state in the same season. Coach Eric Peterson said graduation robbed Oak Harbor of much of its depth: “While any coach wishes their program just reloaded, this will be kind of a rebuilding year for us. We still have our runners that will be top finishers in the district but we lost a lot of depth with graduating seniors.” He said the middle school program and two running clubs do “a great job with young kids” and “overall, we should be fine.” With the recent success, Peterson said, “We definitely had a draw of some new faces from other sports. And yes, we have some kids that have never run before that want to just try it. I really think it comes down to a certain kind of kid with a great work ethic and mental toughness that is drawn to the sport.” The boys return 11 lettermen: seniors Wyatt Homola, Isaac Matthews and Patrick Meyer; juniors Brendan Bristow, Alexander Krantz, Caley Powers, Clayton Richardson, Nathan Wagner and Stephen Miller; and sophomores Dakota Powers and John Rodeheffer. Rodeheffer was second-team, all-conference last year. Caley Powers was honorable mention as a freshman but missed much of last year with an injury. Key newcomers are senior Jason Salas, juniors Haruka Earney and Gavin Stewart, sophomore Steve Hall and freshmen Jon Dix and Logan Clark.

Coach Robin Gohn said, “These seniors have worked together for a number of years and are ready to prove their Wildcat spirit at every event, on and off the field. Their knowledge will play a vital role in guiding the underclassmen of the ways of the Wildcat.” The seniors will be joined by junior letter winners Gina Jaeger and Kaitlyn Marcus and sophomores Juliet Aspery, Jadie Groebli, Angel Williams and Hailey Williamson. Among the newcomers is senior Cierra Mioduski. Oak Harbor had a strong summer, dominating the awards stand at the University of Washington National Cheerleader Association camp. Adkins, Aspery, Brown, Davis, Landingin, Marcus, O’Dell, Quinn and Williams were all nominated for all-American status. Gohn said, “Expectations this year are high” and the keys to success are “experience and dedication.” The junior varsity squad has one returnee and eight new members, and the seniors, Gohn said, are mentoring them “to build a strong Wildcat cheer squad for the future.” Gohn said her team worked hard this summer fundraising and gathering donations to purchase something new that will be unveiled at the first varsity football game.

Wolves fall 23-18 in season opener By JIM WALLER Sports editor
Following the typical firstgame script of inconsistencies and mistakes, Bellevue Christian eked out a 23-18 win over Coupeville Thursday at Lake Washington High School in Kirkland. The two young teams -each suited up only three seniors -- combined for five turnovers and 18 penalties as they fought through firstgame jitters and limited practice time. Coupeville dressed out only 20 of its 37 players. Three were injured and 14 had not met the minimum number of practices (12) needed to compete in a game. Among the
missing were six starters. Tony Maggio, who was making his debut as Coupeville head coach, said all should be ready for the home opener with Port Townsend at 5:30 p.m. Friday, Sept. 7. For the Wolves, it was a game of missed opportunities. Coupeville dropped three interceptions, had one touchdown called back because of a penalty, had another sure TD dropped by a Coupeville receiver, failed to score after taking over at the BC 14, allowed Bellevue Christian to convert on third-and-long (10-plus yards) four times and committed eight penalties, seven for 10 or more
yards. It wasn’t all bad. The Wolves featured a strong running game. Brett Arnold ran for 143 yards on 19 carries and Bryce Fleming gained 68 yards on seven carries and scored three touchdowns. Quarterback Gunnar Langvold, in his first start, was 6-for-16 for 62 yards. Maggio was also pleased with the effort of his shorthanded squad: “I liked how we worked; we played ironman ball.” He also lauded his offensive line which faced heavy pressure from the continually blitzing Viking defense. Coupeville, which trailed 10-6 at the half, got its touch-
down in its first possession on Fleming’s 40-yard TD run. Late in the third quarter, Coupeville failed to convert on fourth-and-one at midfield and Bellevue Christian drove for a 16-6 lead. Coupeville countered when Fleming capped a 69-yard drive with a 15-yard run. A bad snap foiled the PAT. Two major penalties helped BC drive to a 23-12 lead with 10:39 left. A 29-yard run by Arnold set up Fleming’s five-yard TD. A pass on the PAT failed, and the Wolves trailed 23-18 with 7:54 left. Coupeville got the ball back twice in the final four minutes but did not threaten.

Peace is tough but essential FAITHFUL LIVING By Joan Bay Klope
“We look forward to the time when the Power of Love will replace the Love of Power. Then will our world know the blessings of peace.” --William Ewart Gladstone Starting at age 10, when I began to understand with greater clarity the world around me, I recall watching a parade of images splash across the screen of my family’s TV. They all contributed to the woman I am today. I watched bloodied young men being carried out of the jungles of Vietnam. I watched “sit-ins” on college campuses around the country. I saw Bobby Kennedy’s body fall while on the campaign trail in Los Angeles. And I watched a nation mourn the tragic loss of civil rights great Martin Luther King. From those experiences I grew to become a child who sought peace. From my Sunday school teacher I learned that observing peace in any form is a dead giveaway that God is at work. Peace is particularly important to me for I am by nature a peacemaker and a diplomat. I’m not energized by confrontation. Those of us who yearn for peace are particularly stressed and saddened when it disappears from our homes, neighborhoods, places of work and communities. Without peace people easily choose anger, leading to behaviors that include overreaction, carelessness and violence. As I watch international news, in particular, I often wonder what percentages of people around the world, living in war-torn communities, suffer from extreme depression? And while I have learned that strong emotion and angst can bring out the truth, press us toward better solutions, and bring out the best in us when expressed in a controlled environment, people thrive in an atmosphere of peace. They perish physically, emotionally and spiritually where there is no peace to be found. Many times we must fight for peace. We must ask God to draw near, for where He dwells, peace enters. Peace is achieved one person at a time, one event at a time and one day at a time. And each day, as we ask God for the wisdom to know how to fashion a peaceful heart, may we also ask Him to deflect some of our fears and selfishness, helping us to discover reactions that contribute to peace — including dignity, hope, respect and confidence. May we desire peaceful workplaces, kitchen tables and roadways. May we ache for peace so continually that we choose observable changes in our personal behavior during times when we hold the power, rather than rationalizing that because there is war in the hearts of men and great conflict around the world, all efforts at peace are ultimately futile. Mother Theresa once explained that “if we have no peace it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.” Let’s belong. Let’s care. Peace can be produced even when the big picture seems fruitless. It happens when we ask God to step into our lives, to bolster our resolve, and empower our souls with courage, giving us an eternal vision for His peace in the places where we dwell, beside those we dwell.

WHIDBEY’S NEWEST INSPIRATION

Mirrors and dressing tables decorated with handmade items lend a charming air to Lynn Copeland’s new shop on Pioneer Way, Whidbey Inspiration. Copeland specializes in tailoring, alterations and custom designed jewelry and emroidery.
Master of thread, beads joins downtown commerce By REBECCA OLSON Staff reporter
Lynn Copeland’s world is awash in inspiration, her creativity so vivid that it sparked a new shop in downtown Oak Harbor: Whidbey Inspiration, which features tailoring and alterations, plus custom designed jewelry and embroidery. Inside the shop, Copeland’s inspiration shines in a wall of gleaming necklaces and earrings, all handmade, her personal touch glinting in a perfectly set amethyst or glowing in a pearl complemented by a string of beads. Dressing tables hold more jewelry and wedding accessories, their mirrors reflecting the centerpiece of the shop: Copeland’s own wedding dress, shining and elegant and dear to Copeland’s heart. Whidbey Inspiration offers alterations and tailoring, especially for wedding garments, as well as custom designed jewelry and custom designed embroidery. “We don’t really have much in town that can do that,” Copeland said, her beaded dress glimmering as she moved around the shop, preparing for the official ribbon
cutting last Wednesday. TheinspirationforWhidbey Inspiration is Copeland’s daughter, Karen Daughtry, who lives in Louisiana. “She’s been my inspiration. She’s my best friend. She’s been my inspiration for life,” Copeland said. When Copeland suffered respiratory failure nearly five years ago and couldn’t be active, her daughter introduced her to jewelry making. Laughing, Copeland recalled whining about the tediousness of stringing her first necklace. Now, the wall of rainbow jewelry attests to how far she has come. “As time went on, little by little, my talent kicked in,” Copeland said. Jewelry making joined her list of talents, mainly her 44 years of experience at sewing. Once she added embroidery, knitting, crocheting and more, Copeland was well on the path to her own business. She started doing alteration work out of her home but the idea of moving into a shop tickled at her brain. A couple of months ago, that dream came true and she chose a spot on Pioneer Way to support downtown Oak Harbor.
Rebecca Olson / Whidbey News-Times
Lynn Copeland and her daughter, Karen Daughtry, make a variety of types of jewelry by hand using real gemstone and pearls and Swarovski crystals. Copeland can custom design jewelry to match any outfit, bridal dress or bridesmaid dress. Copeland has more than 80,000 embroidery patterns to choose from for gift items, sheets, pillows and more, or a pattern can be custom designed. As a bridal specialist and wedding planner, Copeland specializes in alterations and tailoring for wedding gowns, formals, mens suits, wedding veils, bridesmaid dresses and childrens clothing. With her motto “If it has a seam in it, I can fix it,” Copeland can do it all — and she has, repairing everything from dog kennels to car seat elastic to backpacks.
Many brides come to her in tears because David’s Bridal charges more for alterations than for the dress itself, Copeland said. She offers complimentary wedding dress checks one week before the wedding in which Copeland checks for loose buttons or seams and repairs minor problems. In order to ensure every woman’s wedding is a day to remember, Copeland offers a free wedding day emergency packet. She also See Shop, A13

makes garters, wedding bells and accessories. “Just about anything to do with weddings, I can do,” Copeland said. No jewelry to match a favorite outfit? That’s no problem for Copeland. She’ll design jewelry to match anything. “All of our jewelry is oneof-a-kind,” Copeland said, adding that she and her daughter make it all by hand and include real gemstones, pearls and Swarovski crystals. She also creates jewelry featuring horses, something she doesn’t see often but knows there’s a market for. “I kind of wanted to reach a higher clientele.” “I have a very busy, active mind and I like to keep it busy,” Copeland laughed. “And it’s gratifying when you can make something with your hands.” Copeland served as a labor and delivery nurse for about 25 years at the Navy Hospital and Island Hospital. “As a labor and delivery nurse, when the mom has the baby, she has this beautiful glow on her face when she sees the baby for the first time, and when I fix the

dress and the bride tries it on, she has the hugest glow on her face. Those women are so happy when they see how beautifully their dresses have come out,” Copeland said, smiling. “I just wanted to give something back to the community,” Copeland added, yet another inspiration for opening her shop. “I have all these talents; why not give back? This downtown needs to be picked back up.” Copeland said she plans to make a positive difference downtown and loves her location. “The Chamber of Commerce has given me over and beyond support as a small business owner,” Copeland said. Also supporting her is John Pendleton, owner of Pendleton Imaging and Photography, who took the photos hanging in Copeland’s shop and offered her support as a new small business.

Whidbey Inspiration, now open on Pioneer Way, features horse jewelry, among a myriad of other handmade necklaces, earrings and more. Dawn Battle, a friend and “godsend,” has also been instrumental in getting Whidbey Inspiration up and running, Copeland said. With their help, Copeland said her business grew quickly. “I really think it’s going to be successful,” Copeland
said, smiling. Whidbey Inspiration is now open. The shop is located at 810 SE Pioneer Way #102 in Oak Harbor. For more information, call Whidbey Inspiration at 240-1024 or visit www. whidbeyinspiration.com.

Team Navy pedals for multiple sclerosis By Susan Mador Special to the News-Times
Completing a team bike ride always feels great: physical effort is over, leaving fond memories, and perhaps sore muscles. When Team Navy members cross the finish line at Bike MS on Sept. 9, they will have memories, and sore muscles. They will also know their efforts will affect their friends, family and strangers for years. Team Navy members will join 2,000 other riders at Bike MS to work together towards a cure for multiple sclerosis. MS is a chronic, autoimmune disease of the central nervous system and as the disease progresses it can perplex doctors because its severity and its symptoms vary from person to person. In Island County, 141 people have identified themselves as living with MS. It is estimated that every hour of every day, across the country, someone new is diagnosed with MS. The two-day ride kicks off Saturday, Sept. 8, at Skagit Valley Fairgrounds in Mount Vernon. The ride finishes Sunday, Sept. 9, also at the fairgrounds. Sharon Dodge and Jim Jaeger, co-captains of Team Navy, are living with MS. Dodge’s husband, Bill, started Team Navy when he was stationed at the Pentagon in 2006. Team Navy debuted at the Greater Washington Bike MS ride in 2008 when the Dodge family returned to Whidbey Island Naval Air Station and the Oak Harbor community. Dodge’s father was a Navy pilot and later flew for American Airlines when he was diagnosed with MS “in the prime of his life,” says Dodge. Her father had an extremely progressive form of the disease and passed away at the young age of 48. It was only eight years after his death that Dodge herself received the devastating diagnosis of multiple sclerosis. “Locally, team Navy has consistently been one of the larger friends
and family Bike MS teams, topping out at 23 team members and raising an impressive $141,591.67 since joining the Ride in 2006,” Patty Shepherd-Barnes, president of the Greater Northwest Chapter, said in a press release. “Bike MS fundraising plays an integral part in the support of the local MS community, as well as helps fund international MS research initiatives.” Since Team Navy’s involvement began in 2006, event fundraising has helped bring about several new MS medications including the first orally taken disease modifying therapy. Locally, Team Navy’s fundraising also helps support people living with or affected by MS through financial assistance, peer support, education, or “one of the many other programs and services offered through the society,” Shepherd-Barnes added. Jaeger was diagnosed with MS in October 2007; a few years later in the fall, he met Sharon Dodge at a church outing. The next spring he was training for Bike MS as a Team Navy rider. Jaeger grew up a fourth-generation islander; today, he and wife Michelle raise their family here. Jaeger is a heavy equipment operator-foreman for Krieg Construction. He describes living with MS as having days of fatigue and times of making adjustments to schedules, slowing down and knowing his limits. “I’ve been more fortunate than a lot of people (who have MS),” he said “My medication is working; I’ve had no full blown attacks.” He knows his limitations and counts himself lucky to work for Krieg Construction which he says has been great at making adjustments to schedules, plus understanding there are physical parts of the job he won’t attempt. Jaeger is taking no chances in bringing on an attack. In years past, Jaeger enjoyed rigorous snowmobiling, but that hobby has been dropped.

Jim Jaeger and Sharon Dodge head to the start line before last year’s ride. “It could be MS or my knees,” Jaeger said. “Or it could be I’m 50.” Jaeger realizes that MS is a progressive disease and feels fortunate it is not progressing very quickly for him. When asked about his hopes and aspirations he said he would “keep going as long as I can, which is all anyone can do.” Since being active is a major part of keeping MS at bay, Jaeger chose bike riding. He tries to ride a 10-mile loop three times a week, depending on weather. On weekends he will head from his north Oak Harbor home to Coupeville. “I ride for myself as a challenge and to help others with MS,” he said. Jaeger plans on riding 60 miles Sept. 8 and 50 miles Sept. 9. “I’ve experienced enough pain, numbness and fatigue (all classic
MS symptoms) and fought enough emotional battles, that when I can put air in the tires and climb onto the seat, I am grateful to do my part to help those with MS,” he said. “Riding more than 100 miles in two days is nowhere as difficult as confronting a lifetime with MS.” As the miles disappear beneath his tires, he enjoys meeting other riders and learning how MS has affected their lives. Before and after the ride, cyclists gather in Rider Village to meet, greet and relax. Sharon Dodge said she has made so many friends and met so many people through the disease that “Bike MS is like a big family reunion.” Jaegar echoes the statement about family. Recently, riders and their families were asked to decorate bandanas to put in rider regis-
tration packets. Jaeger’s daughter Gina wrote about her father being diagnosed three days before her 11th birthday. “It has become a family thing,” Gina wrote, “We discuss and work together. Our family has bonded together to fight for a cure.” “Some lucky rider will open their packet and find that to wear,” her father said. At the end of the second day, all Team Navy riders meet at a location a few miles from Skagit Valley Fairgrounds before crossing the finish line together as a team. Jim Jaegar’s parents, Chuck and Gail, always stand at the finish line and cheer as their son and Dodge lead Team Navy in. To support Team Navy, please visit their website at www.teamnavy. org.
